BingoBoingo: It is just on the floor waiting for payment

BingoBoingo: Anyways, the cage is there on the floor ready to fill
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1774190 << this has such a great ring to it. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: They just hadn't sent the international routing information in time to put it with the rest before sober time.

a111: Logged on 2018-01-22 14:55 asciilifeform: the only actual standard in whole fucking machine is the mains cord.
mircea_popescu: a cool. thankee.
shinohai: https://gpg4win.org/download.html <<< without the `www`
shinohai: No wait, thats the old link hurrr
shinohai: Ah, it's https://www.gpg4win.org/download.html ( Dunno why it's called this now)
mircea_popescu: hey shinohai where was the official kleopatra sauce ? ☟︎
shinohai: http://archive.is/fVvBX <<< Guess I'm gonna have to patent VC spray for Conbase, they are making so much money.
ben_vulpes: i woulda expected you to be able to sniff order-of-magnitude difference in plagiaristic works; swoopy css ain't cheap
asciilifeform: ( by same argument, the 'armoredcoin' youtube clip, also cost.. ) ☟︎
ben_vulpes: https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-sl/ cost *something* to produce
asciilifeform: work of fiction in both cases costs ~0 to produce
ben_vulpes: yes well that latter bit is a grand self-crit
ben_vulpes: cardanocoin demands what, at least a half a galweegian for two quarters, with the corp markup that's a hundred k at least
asciilifeform: not to mention attempts to create spurious picture of association with tmsr
asciilifeform: and this other thing also offers 'buy ads here!'
ben_vulpes: research-first academics behind cardano demand turkeybuxx
asciilifeform: both cost ~0 to make
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i fail to see the substantial difference
asciilifeform: perhaps even the http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-18#1772260 one. ☝︎
ben_vulpes: this is vastly lower dough scammatronics than cardanocoin
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: betcha it also operates the various cardanocoins, mpexinfos, bitbetwhateverthefucks
ben_vulpes: 18M visits in the last 24 hours seems a bit tall
asciilifeform: also operates thelogdailyreport.com , which is a... linkfarm made out of #trilema log ☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: in other lulz, the whois contact in 'armoredcoin' , seachoice@gmail.com , shows up in massive buncha spam domain regs
mod6: not today 'eh
asciilifeform: the author's failure to show up , is proof of it
a111: Logged on 2018-01-22 20:32 ben_vulpes: nice thing about that email is that whoever's behind it can be expected to know what #trilema is
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1774420 << as i see it, it's an attempt to 'cardanocoin', i.e. quietly barnacle on tmsr ☝︎
asciilifeform: for some reason asciilifeform was quite convinced that he had already rated diana_coman
a111: Logged on 2018-01-22 17:36 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1773923 << well, i suspect they're countrymen. weren't they both from lebanon or somesuch ?
diana_coman: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1774215 <- they probably are, yes; still an ugly sight if not worse ☝︎
BingoBoingo: http://www.thedrinkingrecord.com/2018/01/18/datacenter-costs/#comment-114568 << The contracted numbers for the curious
BingoBoingo: trinque: They sent pricing information for one machine, will forward to you after sober time
trinque: got a list of those supermicros anywhere?
jhvh1: BingoBoingo: The operation succeeded.
BingoBoingo: !~later tell mircea_popescu Contracts signed. GPGgram has itemized numbers http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/ZAvXe/?raw=true Still waiting on them to clarify which SWIFT code to use because apparently EVERY bank branch here has their own.
ben_vulpes: nice thing about that email is that whoever's behind it can be expected to know what #trilema is ☟︎
ben_vulpes: > required materials: two mid-2000s laptops (... Max Armor = 6 laptops)
asciilifeform: http://armoredco.in links also to various mircea_popescu items, e.g. the airgap article ☟︎
asciilifeform: in other oddities from asciilifeform's wwwtron referlog : http://armoredcoin.org << anybody here wants to confess to authorship of this ? it claims interop with trb , compliance with asciilifeform's '7laws' , etc ☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: but yes phf in fact described , in considerable detail, how scheme79/83 authors strategically omitted the vlsi synthesis tool from their pubs
phf: hmm, that's a relevant point to original "blog it!" because looking for those threads is work :> certainly more work than searching through own blog ☟︎
asciilifeform: this helps the threads actually carry through time
asciilifeform: and incidentally, imho the correct response to asciilifeform (or whoever else) being amnesiac and ignoring old point in log, is to... link to it
phf: aight, these are fair points
trinque has much to improve in teh blog category as well
asciilifeform: phf: consider the practical diff b/w ffa-in-log-cum-pastes and the current series.
ben_vulpes: (is this even possibru with tor?)
trinque: phf: I dunno it's that; I could pick out plenty of examples of "trinque said!!" from the log. I think it's just a huge amount of information by now.
ben_vulpes: caaddr: get a stable connection if you're going to hang around
asciilifeform: phf: on one hand, asciilifeform oughta take better notes. on other , phf really oughta have blog!11 ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2018-01-22 18:54 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1774030 << he has a point you know ; there's A LOT of http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-29#1760917 because significant impedance mismatch between phf state and phf blog.
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1774395 << what i don't understand is how i can have the same conversation ~with ascii~ over and over again and still he'd be repeating the same original stuff. i don't think it's a question of my blog here, unless you're saying that me saying things in log have no merit because i don't have a blog post to back it up with. this is a novel take by the way, because log used to be canon ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: anyway, the sluts beckon ; i shall bbl!
a111: Logged on 2017-12-29 21:30 mircea_popescu: in a sense you convict yourself to ricochet.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-22 14:40 asciilifeform: phf: you gotta put this in proper essay form sometime
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1774030 << he has a point you know ; there's A LOT of http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-29#1760917 because significant impedance mismatch between phf state and phf blog. ☝︎☝︎☟︎
a111: Logged on 2018-01-22 14:37 caaddr: "WARNING: MAY STILL CONTAIN DANGEROUS LEVELS OF SANITY". yes, just a joke. it would be nice to handle them as an exercise in hardware archaeology
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1774019 << this leaves one wondering ; hey caaddr how long did you actually spend reading the logs ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: what are you going to do, say to it "bitch, YOU ARE NOT GOING TO DROWN IN THE FUCKING SINK, RELAX ALREADY1!11" ?
asciilifeform: in that sense , yea
mircea_popescu: oh, im convinced it's a natural problem. like you know, 2yo taking a bath in the sink, holding on to your thumb with all its might.
asciilifeform: and i'm convinced that it's a pseudoproblem. but we'll come back to this when mircea_popescu makes a compact statement of it.
asciilifeform: no i think i grasp.
mircea_popescu: it's a subtle point this, i dun have useful expression yet. in time.
asciilifeform: ( or connected to printer... )
mircea_popescu: middle management likes "byte" for the same reason it likes excel.
asciilifeform: the lack of an fpga where i could go straight to demonstrating this experimentally, is a pretty substantial headache for asciilifeform
mircea_popescu: there's one thing it can't express too well (well here means -- in such a way as to guaranteedly and inescapably inconvenience EVERYONE) and that is, a certain notion of finality.
asciilifeform: no particular reason to hardwarize them explicitly.
mircea_popescu: "then we could have cut one off at birth and walked on one leg and one wing like it were the future!"
mircea_popescu: for the country of the lame that somehow convinced themselves "it's man's nature to hop -- if god wanted man to walk he'd have given him wings"
mircea_popescu: but yes, "ffa mostly exists to show you that no, you actually DO NOT have a leg there".
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1774008 << this goes right into stream processor as opposed to cpu and all that. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-01-22 14:30 caaddr: compared to compilation as a *software transformation device*, which I consider a different case: that is for automating levers, not running your program off of a cliff faster than before
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1773999 << it's not clear that this separate-and-oh-so-different-this-time attempt to implement dwim has any more merit than any of the previous ones. for as long as i can't say "paperclip, write the novel i feel inside of me", you can't say "software transformation compiler". ☝︎
asciilifeform: if compiler bug costs exploded rocket and 100 megabux -- people do in fact begin to think about audits.
asciilifeform: ( traditionally compiler was distrusted not even because thompson, but because buggy. )
asciilifeform: this has been the historic only pill for 'i dun trust the compiler' . audit the bin.
asciilifeform: ( again in re individual built item, e.g. ffa, rather than whole gnat )
