robotnum1: our of this solar system i suppose
robotnum1: no one know how long this bubble is gonna last. I wish i knew
BingoBoingo: Das not a very polite question, but I'm about 5'7"
assbot: That Time I Tried to Buy an Actual Barrel of Crude Oil - Bloomberg Business ... ( http://bit.ly/1iC6wKq )
adlai: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-11-03/that-time-i-tried-to-buy-some-crude-oil "Kaminska insists on paying me by blockchain, the digital ledger system that is currently all the rage on Wall Street."
mod6: thx! i'll post this change here as soon as I get everything bundled up and the docs altered.
asciilifeform: (by whom? i do not know.)
Krystyl: I think I need to look into this more because I have no idea what pgp & gpg are........
felipelalli: deedbot- http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=UXCFq5gF
felipelalli: trinque, but I need that stuff in the end. Should I re-sign the entire message? It will work?
trinque: felipelalli: I just did it for ya :)
felipelalli: Ah! I'm sorry.
trinque: just hack off that end bit and I expect it will work
trinque: I parse me inputs!

mircea_popescu: yes, i'd much rather that this burning happens in the consciousness of the derps involved,
mircea_popescu: what i'd rather doesn't enter into it. i would rather the "civilised" world burn than continue.
asciilifeform: (i dare say not)
assbot: Logged on 03-11-2015 20:41:28; jurov: i suspect it will end up like wwii, it will be *very* different germany as before, but everyone will still envy it
mircea_popescu: i'd even consider moving.
asciilifeform: last i heard, it wasn't the chinese who flattened syria
asciilifeform: as i understand, cn is only involved in the sense that it is impervious to the usg orc-pushing current
mircea_popescu: and bitching notwithstanding, i will point out that this "send the women naked butt first" approach is so far working a lot better than the "we will resist behind the walls of vienna" 1100s stuff.
mircea_popescu: now i regret not buying them a tea
asciilifeform: but perhaps i'm out of date
asciilifeform: i'd expect sov. tube sets in cairo
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: perhaps surprisingly, i must take issue with the reductionist approach here. electrodynamics is to 'electronics' as fluid dynamics is to modern plumbing
zfx: certainly not far enough to read schematics and understand what I'm looking at
zfx: put it this way, I've spent a pretty long time working with software, but never dug into the hardware as far as I'd like to
asciilifeform: zfx: i must agree with mircea_popescu. thus far we have only the foggiest notion of what it is you'd like to accomplish
mircea_popescu: i dunno what he's asking, what can i say.
zfx: well, I'm interested in some of the cpu reinvention ideas discussed here
asciilifeform: http://i.imgur.com/qyuJVVh.jpg
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu sees rotherhaming as an essential public service. i don't grasp this. seems approximately as useful as locusts.
asciilifeform: i'll be the last to cry for the english, or for the germans, as they go into the woodchipper
jurov: but i guess this discussion is hopeless, goodnight

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-11-2015#1314824 << suppose instead of picturing, you do that then i can write in qntra about it ? ☝︎
BingoBoingo: I cunt remember either
BingoBoingo: I dunno dollares need a whole second message
assbot: Logged on 03-11-2015 15:00:42; asciilifeform: i would not be much surprised to discover that plaintext matching the description of a gpg sig is being silently massaged, at random, somewhere in the backbonez.

assbot: How I was wrong : Cuckolding, or a story about sigmas on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1Qa47Ed )
assbot: Logged on 03-11-2015 14:56:06; asciilifeform: i still can't fathom why anybody with half a brain would voluntarily set foot in such a place

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-11-2015#1314798 << i wonder why the republic favour ascii armored over "binary" ☝︎
pete_dushenski: well i seem pretty decent at making my own drama thus far
pete_dushenski: i'd expect that from my mother, but my cult ? what has this world become ??
pete_dushenski: *gasp* how dare you insinuate that i don't have actual relevance !
shinohai: pete_dushenski: I spread bitterness and discontent, that's what the internet is for.
shinohai: How sad I just noticed that gay-as-fuck heart shit in twitter now.
mircea_popescu: i guess not even the chinese can tell the chinese apart.
shinohai: mircea_popescu: in China I have heard this still occurs, you pay someone to serve your sentence for you.
assbot: Logged on 03-11-2015 14:47:59; kakobrekla: "can i bring a few friends and we sit out the years in a month?"
assbot: Logged on 03-11-2015 14:33:04; asciilifeform: 'I have heard from several people connected to European security circles that the illegal weapons market is completely sold out, with many dealers holding on to their weapons for their own personal use. This is a rumour, but since we have been forced to depend on hearsay for any real information right now, I tend to believe it.'
shinohai: I forgot to add that hashtag to my tweet of your article earlier BingoBoingo, think I'll redo it.
ben_vulpes: the only men i've seen in this saga are the surgeons and the family doc. dunno what that means.
ascii_field: l0l i wished him to ~be spared~ mean reversion
ben_vulpes: perhaps at the end of this fiscal year i can spread the risk around a bit.
gribble: _I_ don't know.
lobbes: hanbot: I've heard around $30 a pop, though I've never been myself. My loathing of crowds may have kept me alive
thestringpuller: I remember being driven to the airport one morning and my god
BingoBoingo: Oklahomo is pretty bad, but less overtly toxic in a give you cancer sort of way than Ohio. Michigan still has the Upper Penninsula last I checked.
lobbes: idk, there's Oklahomo, Michigan, but now I guess we're just ranking shit
BingoBoingo: I dunno, but even compared to the rest of the place, Ohio is especially smelly.
ascii_field: jurov: last i saw, it was still full of germans ?
jurov: i suspect it will end up like wwii, it will be *very* different germany as before, but everyone will still envy it ☟︎
ascii_field: i know a fella in meatspace who wanted to move to germany
jurov: you proposed that as realistic preventive solution, so i'm curipus how do you imagine that?
jurov: i did not ask about hypothetical future caliphate
jurov: if russia was i ruins, yes
punkman: ascii_field: I had a client that was automating payment of those. taxi/limo company.
ascii_field: https://i.imgur.com/2w0Kaqf.jpg << unrelated.
mircea_popescu: "oh, i have mace" yeah, you do. so ?
ascii_field: i find it entirely plausible that usg would try to open the scuttling valve on what remains of industrial europe
mircea_popescu: i don't know anyone here who keeps as many
mircea_popescu: i didn't know anyone THERE who didn't keep MORE WOMEN THAN ME
ascii_field: i never understood.
ascii_field: all i see in the commentz is 'tomb of the unknown free software soldier' sorta thing
ascii_field: do we know ? (i certainly do not)
ascii_field: ~who~ wrote mpi, i wonder
ascii_field: incidentally this thing is going in cardano in place of the unspeakably untested ragtag thing i had previously.
thestringpuller: Bugpowder has returned. A name I haven't seent in many years.
trinque: nowhere did I say it was impossible to teach a stepchild, yet, may cost more
funkenstein_: well that's where the proverbial switch comes in then I suppose
trinque: and beyond that, I would not be surprised at all if being aware of "degree of relatedness" is built-in
funkenstein_: aha, good point.. more "clinical" then i suppose
adlai: now that's a coin i haven't seen in a long time
adlai: ok, that one gives me the same. the ones that I checked (mod6's V, mpi-genesis) did not.

adlai: asciilifeform: well i slept through the fact that his sentences sleep through eachother!
