jurov: i had a bit heated discussion with him that it the wallet users don't own the privkeys, wtf is that all about
trinque: phf: I see the beliefs themselves less relevant than the command structure implied by them
jurov: i have met him personally in timisoara (and his trophy gf), did not look like a good fit
trinque: phf: I know christians that believe the man's the head of the house, and that one is to follow the bible literally
phf: trinque: but i'm thinking specifically of ~christian~ communities rather then rednecks specifically. my reference point are friends whose parents are "active in church" or work as missionaries abroad
phf: trinque: i don't have a reference for that rednecks that i go snowboarding and sometimes hunting with are not very religious. they just say all the tv talking points, abortion, gays, liberal elite, etc.
trinque: not saying I believe in the bible myself, but they do, and have read and studied it
ascii_field: kakobrekla: but when i ~do~ find the magic artifact, it is 100% on ebay.
trinque: phf: eh, I don't think you know my rednecks
kakobrekla: ascii_field i have found one in a million things there that ebay could not provide.
phf: trinque: modern christian position on divorce, on a role of a woman in household, on a role of man in household, on premarital sex, all sham. fundamentally there's no belief in the bible. no first world christian guy would even consider living according to bible in, say, muslim style. so what constitutes badassery? hunting from a back of a pickup, or "i was linebacker 30 years ago"? ☟︎
ascii_field: kakobrekla: and i don't have a sotheby's budget to do it with, either.
ascii_field: kakobrekla: i buy things that literally one out of a million people has to sell.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla i suspect that won't last too long.
ascii_field: trinque: some items even on ebay i had to wait for years to find.
ascii_field: i have shit luck and don't know anyone who has anything i want.
ascii_field: trinque: i am listing only objects i already have
ascii_field: mats: were you paying attention when i specifically mentioned ancient hardware ?
joecool: Best to have realistic goals I suppose. The bitcoin news sites that suck group is pretty crowded anyway
BingoBoingo: I just try not to suck.
joecool: nice job with qntra.net by the way, I read that daily
joecool: I don't speak too often in here, but I do like to keep up with things ☟︎
trinque: "should they later find the time, interest and inclination to contribute substantially (as I have no doubt any actually could), there's going to be more revisions."
joecool: hrm, was I purged from the WoT graph? catching up on trilema and the logs that appears to be the case?
trinque: yep, I was briefly interested in this "Oath Keepers" thing, but they're ironically exactly the white counterpart to #blacklivesmatter
trinque: phf: I can see that point, but I see the problem as a matter of what rules are imposed, not that they are imposed. ☟︎
trinque: shinohai: I see it as just another way to line people up into some semblance of a command structure
shinohai: I honest;y don't have a problem with most, except the real real fundies
trinque: these gun-toting christians hate socialism, so I like them just fine ☟︎
jurov: I'd play safe and had a Greek one. That one's passable for Catholics and Protestants too
shinohai: Though I do want a copy of that "Queen James" Bible translation to keep on the shelf for when Mormons come over.r
BingoBoingo: shinohai: "And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD."?
phf: http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/09/28/article-0-18565E9200000578-190_634x424.jpg
ascii_field: what's it say? 'i come not with peace but a sword' ?
ascii_field: but with regards to 'chinese firmware' i meant the opposite end of the plague
ascii_field: i had this on my dx, they are invariably shit
phf: https://pro.sony.com/bbsc/ssr/product-DPTS1/?PID=I:digitalpaper:digitalpaperproductpage target market lawyers, government and "higher ed"
phf: i have a hand rolled version of instapaper that takes html articles and adds them to a periodic readinglist.mobi. same for b-a logs. in fact i read most of the stuff on kindle, far away from a real computer.. ☟︎
phf: i'm disappointed that amazon caved and went the retard route with their kindle. i've gotten as far as booting temacs on kindle, back when it still had a shitty but hardware keyboard, gave up when i saw version two with touch screen, left in disgusts when fire came out
ascii_field: thing is, i like doing things away from computer.
phf: i've noticed that. i have a pretty hacked up ccl repl, that does math for me in infix notation, and that's something that i reach for in anger. i'd like something as easy, and preferably portable
phf: ascii_field: guy who wrote firmware also distributes laminates. i hear you, but it's the whole poverty point, for me it was a step up from "why the fuck can't i get a decent rpn calculator?" i tried iphone apps even..
ascii_field: shinohai: it materialized, i used it for years.
shinohai: ascii_field: I liked this post of yours: http://www.loper-os.org/?p=1490 would indeed be interesting to materialize.
ascii_field: and even if it were the correct size & shape, I AM NOT FUCKING WRITING ON KEYS WITH PEN
ascii_field: and FUCK NO do i not want multiple keypresses for the above ops
ascii_field: i don't want the 49 series with their idiot vertical layout and tiny keys
ascii_field: i use this thing every day.
ascii_field: and WHERE THE FUCK OTHER THAN EBAY could i have gotten it.
ascii_field: i got one of these.
ascii_field: precisely how many and within what geographic spot constitutes 'interesting', i do not know. ask the inquisitor when it's your turn in the room 101 chair.
phf: <ascii_field> they flag residences with more-than-average count of distinct sim id << they do? i don't even know how many sims i have, they have all kinds of practical applications! sms proxies, rc helicopters, remote triggered explosive devices, what?
assbot: Logged on 30-04-2015 21:21:12; ascii_field: http://www.loper-os.org/vintage/paralleleye/eye.html << example of item i bought on ebay. where the fuck else is it even physically possible to get one of these? sotheby's? it took 5+ yrs of searching, too
assbot: Logged on 30-04-2015 21:29:20; ascii_field: as far as i'm concerned, historically, ebay is just this gizmo that shaves a zero off the price of the costliest things i buy. so i was never moved to care whether it is run by hitler or fueled with baby seal juice etc.
assbot: Logged on 03-09-2015 18:28:40; kakobrekla: in the words of Blake, "just lucky, i guess".
punkman: ascii_field: your argument has merit, but I don't think for long
ascii_field: where the fuck am i supposed to get, e.g, specific bracket for specific circa-1992 laptop ?
kakobrekla: in the words of Blake, "just lucky, i guess". ☟︎
kakobrekla: last time i had a dispute solved by paypal, i was overcompensated.
ben_vulpes: leastaways that was a complaint i heard from you once.
ascii_field: not what i was talking about.
BingoBoingo: jurov: I don't know exactly, but Maybe the server is cranky?

assbot: Logged on 03-09-2015 11:35:05; shinohai: My "hacks" were mostly to wiring and such. My mother, in her nasally Jewish voice, always swore I was going to "burn myself alive in my car"

thestringpuller: asciilifeform: I thought that bend was for when wife loses engagement ring while doing dishes...
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: i'd rather have bigger pipes to flush my shit down rather than the shit move away from my house faster.

shinohai: tbh I would need a ton of research to know where to begin.
pete_dushenski: i admit i'm not much for the coinbr graphs
pete_dushenski: i should clarify that 'well designed' means 'attractively designed' in this instance. i nfi about the hairball backend.

shinohai: Now I like road races.
shinohai: It just bores me. I can't watch cars go in circle 2-3 hours.
shinohai: I despise nascar. I live in the heart of it.
pete_dushenski: i can't say i've ever been much for nascar, but enough of the tradition seems to have carried on, despite the distillation of the source into a platonic game
shinohai: My "hacks" were mostly to wiring and such. My mother, in her nasally Jewish voice, always swore I was going to "burn myself alive in my car" ☟︎☟︎
punkman: the tuning part is scary, I wonder if anyone has managed to explode his car
pete_dushenski: *i'd put 'nappy changing' up there with building basic lego designs in terms of difficulty
