nubbins`: i'd make a thousand copies for cheaper than that, and they'd be printed by hand
nubbins`: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-12-2015#1341100 <<< if i had to choose a singular event that fully kindled my nihilism, it would be studying nonlinear dynamics in depth ☝︎
mircea_popescu: or at any rate, it's the sort of thing i've been doing to petrify the adults ever since i was about i dunno, 5. ymmv.
assbot: Logged on 11-12-2015 07:27:09; pete_dushenski: speaking of time machines, i'm looking to have contravex printed into a book. anyone have any experience with http://www.blog2print.com/ ?
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-12-2015#1340908 << i have no idea about the outfit in question, other than being quite obviously part of a venerable scam, so old it's even monographed by balzac. if you actually want to print your blog, get yourself latex, make it spit out printer files ; find a local printer with a web press, see what's the lowest they'll take in run overhead (should be 1-2k or so) and do a run. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i have no fucking idea how the niggers can stand themselves. it sure as fuck galls me, and i don't even live there. here sits Lee Cowen, re-interpreting history for his fellow jews, according to what lenin said ?
adlai: last i checked, bitcoin restricts us to cohabiting the same planet...
adlai: but wouldn't you rather i write lisp instead of englith?
asciilifeform: adlai actually thought i had anything to do with the bet ?
mircea_popescu: holy shit... i've.... i've become gaddafi ?!
assbot: Logged on 11-12-2015 14:44:47; mircea_popescu: i guess if you took a vote among the domesticated ducks, they'd agree wild ducks must either be all shot or else a ceiling put over the village.
mircea_popescu: but i mostly used it specifically to review the store.
mircea_popescu: if FOSS had a hand in it, i'd buy 10k cpus every time i wanted to make a working station.
mircea_popescu: the REASON i never have do debug my cpu, my very dear alf
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-12-2015#1341005 << i picked the analogy quite deliberately. because not only is digital electronics a simplified world riding on top of analogue, but the entire lumped-element model is likewise 'a lie' ☝︎

mircea_popescu: i suppose by 2018 it will be samuel l jackson and the lord our god.
mircea_popescu: yeah but on the other hand the only place i was ever actually bombed in was jerusalem.
adlai: i guess 'local police' in the average american locallity includes enough armored vehicles to get mistaken for authority

mircea_popescu: https://archive.is/CNsNN << pretty lulzy thinking tho. "how dares this mp guy act independently! this should not exist! i will call upon my liege lords to efface this abomination from the face of the earth - if not in reality then at least from the earth as i can see it. for it bothers me so."
assbot: Logged on 11-12-2015 07:14:22; pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=10-12-2015#1340387 << how jaded must i be that i didn't even bat an eyelash at this death warrant.
assbot: Logged on 11-12-2015 06:11:19; ben_vulpes: "I will personally come out to SF and make this all public and have a showdown" << aha do what now i'm sorry i ohohohahaha
mircea_popescu: derps accusing me of "seeking attention", when i own their mother, in a fucking trasnparent ploy to seek attention. herpitty-derp.
shinohai: I'm going to make a snarky remark.
shinohai: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-12-2015#1340993 <<< the lulz "Anything touches sipa, I'll contribute to ensure MP is gone." ☝︎
punkman: "I don't know MP. Can't inform. But I agree. Anything touches sipa, I'll contribute to ensure MP is gone." such threats
mircea_popescu: somehow i'm willing to bet it's a dude tho.
pete_dushenski: but i guess that's what cbs gets for trying to appeal to redditards and gen xers.
BingoBoingo: I can assure you that IL 127 while covering substantial distance does not.
BingoBoingo: Well I'm prolly repainting the plastic wheel covers black this spring as a solution to the dilema of "just roll steelies" or find a set of used aluminium rims.
BingoBoingo: What, I still care about 12 year old paint.
BingoBoingo: I though you were both a man of the tribe and of style.
pete_dushenski: what am i, bitcoin rich ?
pete_dushenski: speaking of time machines, i'm looking to have contravex printed into a book. anyone have any experience with http://www.blog2print.com/ ? ☟︎
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=10-12-2015#1340427 << i can't claim to have any such information. for all i know, it's his morning paper ☝︎
pete_dushenski: wtf kind of war doesn't have the losers hung up for their crimes ? what is this, counter strike ? "oh, i'll just respawn and no big deal!" ??
pete_dushenski: this isn't backyard cowboys and indians. your mom isn't calling you for dinner only for you to call back "just 5 more minutes mom! i have to catch this redskin!"
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=10-12-2015#1340387 << how jaded must i be that i didn't even bat an eyelash at this death warrant. ☝︎☟︎
assbot: Logged on 10-12-2015 22:01:45; shinohai: First time I had seen that happen, but I've only been here since June.

BingoBoingo: From the mines: "Just once I want to get sent to deal with a pronoid schizophrenic. The guy who's convinced that everyone is out to help him. He believes the FBI is watching him with the intent of making him their new Director. Aliens are invading Earth so they can give him the secret to eternal life. He wears a tinfoil hat to absorb the rays being beamed at him by the CIA that make him smarter and happier."
ben_vulpes: (and yes i understand why you don't want to talk to anyone polluted by vn about this thing)
ben_vulpes: this is probably horrendously wrong, but i currently imagine some 'main' program entrypoint with subsections that indicate their parallelizability. is this entirely wrong or correctably wrong?
ben_vulpes: so i take the little proggy i've written--would i need to do anything special to it in order to take advantage of more m^2 of compute fabric?
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: hey boss, i keep meaning to ask you about the details of dataflow programming (vis a vis turning ascii files into computation), but i'm having trouble booking the like 3 hours of sit-down time it'd take to respond in a timely fashion

ben_vulpes: this week i'm actually preferring to hire "jr" people with broad programming experience (and varied backgrounds) for pressing into the ipnohe and andorp squads, theory being that broad experience with other humans and technologies trumps cheap labor and misguided enthusiasm
danielpbarron: i'm a little surprised i didn't get suspended as well, for retwatting the offending .. uh..
mircea_popescu: i have nfi what they imagine they're doing, but more power to them and their clown car.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron> aaaaand the trilema twatter account is suspended <<< now i gotta go in the logs, see what all that does.
mod6: in the short term, is there a way to maybe do this better that I'm missing?
mod6: i do see what you're saying in a sense I think.
mod6: i have one more bridge to cross yet, and I havent gotten that far yet; having a script of my own somehow check the sigs & hashes after the file xfrs are complete.
mod6: i think it'll work though. my rotor+v054 script would run this script after extracting the buildroot package
mod6: so what I'm hoping to accomplish here is to alter the .mk files that accompany buildroot, so they pull the 3rd party reqs directly from the foundation site instead of wherever they currently point to. ☟︎
asciilifeform: i think i see the point here
mod6: (this by no means is finished, but interested to see what you think about the direction i'm taking)
mod6: you wanna see my script I'm workin on?
mod6: anyway, yeah, I'm looking forward to getting the website cleaned up and putting V up there with vpatches.
mod6: <ascii_field> trb www still shows non-v patches ?! << ok so no, not yet. after ben and I sign everything for the release, we'll be updating the website.
mircea_popescu: <cazalla_> yeah that guy, i actually bought a hard copy of the book though, been working on in it 1-2 hours each evening, trying to make a Legend of the Red Dragon mud type game meets bitcoin <<< ahahaha check out the guy that took a year off from btc biz :D
cazalla_: punkman, i'm finding it good and i'm on pace to actually finish it, but figured seeing i know little, might be best to ask he if what im learning has any value
punkman: I've read a couple of his learn X books, not bad
cazalla_: yeah that guy, i actually bought a hard copy of the book though, been working on in it 1-2 hours each evening, trying to make a Legend of the Red Dragon mud type game meets bitcoin
ascii_field: cazalla_: i'm entirely unfamiliar with this author
cazalla_: asciilifeform, any idea if zed shaw knows his stuff? working through his learn python the hard way book past month or so, recommend any books once i'm done with this one (or anyone else for that matter)
cazalla_: thanks, i'd log in properly but won't stay long

shinohai: I guess this place isn't for everyone, :/
shinohai: First time I had seen that happen, but I've only been here since June. ☟︎
tripleslash: I haz voiceseses
assbot: Okay, so I think I've figured out 'Dr' Craig White's end game in pretending to be Satoshi. : Buttcoin ... ( http://bit.ly/21SJxO4 )
BingoBoingo: "She told me that her team did a lot of collaborative work in this lab, and she didn't need someone who was going to 'eat more than their fair share of the pizza, if you know what I mean.' "
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: 'Not only are they part of the transaction, not only are they an integral part of the transaction : they are the only actually needed part. What makes a transaction a transaction is the signature, nothing else. Everything else is like marketing : contributes to costs, not to revenue.' << here i will note that, if bitcoin used rsa sigs, the tx and the signature could be literally one and the same thing
ascii_field: i thought it was 'any degree of scumhood is virtuous when it's in the service of usg, lie, cheat, kill, whatever'
shinohai: Well I never would have guessed two individuals would get their panties in a bunch in one day.
btcdrak: mircea_popescu: Well I'm done here. You're out of order.
mircea_popescu: well... i signed it, didn't i ? what's more.
btcdrak: mircea_popescu: I'm trying to divine if you are just trolling or dead serious.
ascii_field: thestringpuller: in the same sense as i'm afraid to thermonuke davos
assbot: Logged on 31-01-2015 02:02:19; midnightmagic: dude. seriously plotting or fomenting the physical murder of the USG is sedition, insurrection, and various related crimes and there's no fucking way I'm interested in being associated with it just because I'm lurking in here.
mircea_popescu: shinohai in fairness, wouldn't by any stretch be the first person we/i've driven to excuse themselves.
mircea_popescu: myeah. i had a mp sitting on my shoulder going "Doh" as i hit enter
assbot: Logged on 10-12-2015 17:57:45; HeySteve: well, I wash my hands of this place
thestringpuller: ^- i've done this
assbot: Logged on 23-10-2015 14:24:36; HeySteve: as for the rest, mircea_popescu, you may dismiss everything that isn't Bitcoin 0.5 as a scam but I do not take this view without evidence
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i've really not spent so much time looking into it, gb-and-a-half piddle from 10s of ips.
HeySteve: well, I wash my hands of this place ☟︎
mircea_popescu: lemme fish the ips i banned
mircea_popescu: i guess yet another field where the private sector has the public sector whupped.
mircea_popescu: ah ah i read implements.
ascii_field: wake me up when i can buy a ticket to the impalements.
HeySteve: I know evil bullshit when I see it.
HeySteve: I mean really, putting out a hit? what if some desperate or crazy person takes you up on it, are you ready for the criminal charges?
HeySteve: I hope you continue to oppose scammers and act for the conservation of "classic" bitcoin. but this is not the way to go about it.
HeySteve: I wish you would reconsider, this is madness
HeySteve: I might not be the best person to judge the technical issues. but to judge murder for hire? yes, why not
mircea_popescu: then any sane person will do something else with their time, i guess.
mircea_popescu: same thing as "properlly spelled spam" i guess.
