copypaste: nothing, but it has
a lot to do with fixedsys
mircea_popescu: html going the way of the ^G would be
a greater win than most anything else. and not just for computing sanity, either.
mircea_popescu: something like this is fucking obvious, even to the lowliest derp : there is no concept of "wordpress theme" in the fucking code, and if you want to "skin it" you eitgher write one or, as the derp case usually is, go to
a repository and load one you like. nobody goes "hey, we should be able to decide what wordpress theme is used to display this article IN THE FUCKING ARTICLE".
mircea_popescu: there's absolutely nothing valid or even remotely interesting you might need to "express yourself" through writing into the book sideways and with
a round hole in the middle of the page.
mircea_popescu: and honestly doing away with this particular bowdlerization of the idea of freedom where sites "can change" is such
a great win just by itself...
mircea_popescu: the idea isn't to "surf websites" and "easy upload and download". the idea is to replace the motherfucking browser altogether, so that
a chanpage is created out of discrete resources requested from peers exactly like the browser works but without touching any sort of web anything.
assbot: Logged on 19-01-2016 14:57:37; mircea_popescu: copypaste it'll take
a while to implement, you'll have to pull in gpg too, and some other shit. but once done it does obsolete current chanology. i can't conceive who or how could run
a chan anymore on anything else.
mircea_popescu: seems to me the conjugate separation is
a rather universal solution
ascii_butugychag: gotta love especially the part where 'you did not break our system, but
a weak variant which we for no good reason give to all testers!111'
adlai: (fwiw the self-styled ABC is
a super-secret facebook group called "advanced bitcoin" where all recent discussion seems to be about the bitcoinclassic 'slack' channel... at least they also have the policy of requiring new entrants to read 'logs', so it's not all noise)
adlai: mircea_popescu: at
a certain point, you just have to stop editing and shoot the bastard
copypaste: Perhaps no frontends are currently working, that would be
a shame
copypaste: But before he was doing that, he was making
a distributed chan using the NNTP protocol and Tor/I2P
mircea_popescu: so it's not one of those "shit me
a micron" sort of jobs.
copypaste: I have
a friend who is now working for fluffypony and Monero on adding I2P to that coin (perhaps the work is already finished)
mircea_popescu: copypaste it'll take
a while to implement, you'll have to pull in gpg too, and some other shit. but once done it does obsolete current chanology. i can't conceive who or how could run
a chan anymore on anything else.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: basically, the correct way to implement this, is to have
a "universal" key and have people encrypt to whatever keys they want. if they include the universal, then it's public. if they don't, then only whoever they encrypted to can see it.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: just fork gnutella or whatever to serve as your basis. add
a render engine, and you're g2g.
mircea_popescu: <mircea_popescu> ideally you replace the browser entirely, also. run as
a sort of torrent. <
copypaste: If I get
a WoTchan working, I'll link it here.
mircea_popescu: ideally you replace the browser entirely, also. run as
a sort of torrent.
mircea_popescu: copypaste how are they forced ? you run gpg and make
a key. whatever it comes out.
copypaste: I've actually never even heard of
a chan with forced usernames
mircea_popescu: either way
a random cs-illiterate third party would not see anything.
copypaste: I don't understand how anonymity and the WoT could intersect in
a meaningful way
mircea_popescu: well, you could go two ways with it. one'd be, subscription driven, like
a sort of twitter. one can see any content of people whose sigils they imported and nothing else.
mircea_popescu: however...
a wot-based chan, now that may be interesting.
copypaste: So archive.is's view of /b/ is not comparable to the #b-
a log, which represents everything
mircea_popescu: jurov dude, srsly. for one thing, the file is 1.5gb, the available ram 4x that. EVEN IF IT READ IT AS
A SINGLE LINE it should work.
mircea_popescu: archive.is has been around for
a few years now for instance
copypaste: Anywho, /b/ is archived by many third parties, but the archive sites have
a maximum lifetime of 18 months. After that time, an all encompassing archive always fails.
copypaste: If you give me
a few minutes I'll get to the commentary :)
copypaste: I'm quoting
a trilema article for the purposes of commentary
mircea_popescu: really, there's little point in inviting known derps. if all the dude ever did was you know, trying to find
a pretext outside to talk about himself, he really belongs on myspace or whatever, not here.
adlai: "there are always two"... master mike leaves the sith order for the private sector, so
a new apprentice appears.
adlai notes, as
a humorous aside, that someday there needs to be
a rock-off between PeterL and PeterR
☟︎ PeterL: there seems to be
a question as to the antecedent of "this rock" as to whether it referes to Peter or the previous verse
adlai not being much of
a scripture expert, seeks commentary on the commentaries...
mircea_popescu: i prolly also run cheaper, shittier monitors than all of you, and in general... i'm just
a more modest fellow!
mircea_popescu: actually, i don't really give
a shit about fan noise, not while im awake at any rate.
assbot: Logged on 08-06-2015 04:27:15; asciilifeform: i, for instance, would much like to publicly register as 'anyone who walks in with my name and slave serial number and tries to take
a mortgage, ever, is to be shot immediately'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you got no basement ? i thought you had
a house not flat
mircea_popescu: for the record, sed 's/<[^>]*//g' takes just about 1k seconds to purge
a 6gb pile of webcrud into 1.5gb of pressed juice.
kakobrekla: get
a bigger one and it will run at lower relative load :)
kakobrekla: asciilifeform it has
a fan it just doesnt run it
assbot: Logged on 19-01-2016 12:40:06; asciilifeform: i will NOT use
a fanned gpu.
mircea_popescu: The dielectric loss was low (<0.01), except for virgin olive oil with
a value of 0.05.
jurov: punkman: i have inherited
a working table from grandpa that allows me to have the monitor 1m away
punkman: 40" inch for 3840 x 2160 sounds
a bit big
mircea_popescu: the last time i had
a fanless gpu most of the girls i know today were still virgins omaigerd.
mircea_popescu: hey, some people edit pr0nz for
a living. they have to do it on mobile workstation as well as at home and that sixth-inch clitoral hood HASTOLOOKGOOD!!11
punkman: not paying
a premium for 120 extra pixels
mircea_popescu: incidentally, i like the arrangement, ostensibly every window in the backroom opens into
a small cell populated by one nude houri ?
mircea_popescu: "Why four $800 monitors ? Mostly because I’m not
a poorfag" << - >> <asciilifeform> ;;later tell pete_dushenski you ~do~ realize you bought the 'poorfag' non-'colouredge' or 'radiforce' eizos, right ? << lol i'm sure he'll be thrilled to hear.
☟︎ punkman: I also saw
a monitor advertised as 10bit, and then noticed "actually only 8bit" in the small print. not sure if this was in the logs, but quite outrageous.
