phf: i think you have higher expectation of what should be coming out of security conferences. toorcon, schmoocon, defcon, blackhat (though i always though bh is like a grownup version) always seemed like a poc||gtfo in a face-to-face with beer format
asciilifeform: it isn't even because i expect to meet up with folks who pay the 'fair price' at some future time,
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: ... if you find it you can sell it. << not quite. i, for instance, can't sell it << You have well founded suspicions of what happens to the unannoited who sell
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: ... if you find it you can sell it. << not quite. i, for instance, can't sell it ☟︎
phf: asciilifeform: i think that's a standard blackhat fair. i think the useful part is another cubbyhole to put rootkit fallback hooks, but it's presented like an earth shattering revelation, because
BingoBoingo has a feeling asciilifeform could be the entire speaker slate at blackhat with things known since time immemorial. A few years ago I thought things being presented were novel. Now I look at the program and see loads of snore.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-08-2015#1237135 << so, i read the slides. 1) 20MB powerpoint pdf turd?!!! wtf, people. 2) the picture which implies priv escalation is disingenuous. there is, just as i said earlier, no esclation. you gotta be in ring0 to move the apic window. NONE OF THIS SHIT WAS SECRET, how did they even get a talking slot at 'blackhat' ? ☝︎
pete_dushenski: and with that, i'm off to have my weary joints and hulking muscles massaged good and proper. adieu !
pete_dushenski: i am now a ~real~ man
assbot: Logged on 13-08-2015 14:44:54; pete_dushenski: shinohai: wonder of wonder, miracle of miracles, i took rotor by the hand, turned him around and - miracle of miracles - led him to the promised land !
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: so amd is no cure for this nonsense ? and i'm guessing ppc is in the same boat ?
pete_dushenski: if this doesn't have you hunting the local classifieds for amd opterons and fxes, i dunno what will
pete_dushenski: funkenstein_: i imagine that contravex posts will either become shorter or slightly less frequent, but we shall see
funkenstein_: frass.woodcoin.org <-- another place I display my ignorance from time to time
funkenstein_: I am hoping you will still be able to contravex us regulary even with new arrivals :)
pete_dushenski: from what i recall of it, i'd much rather read funkenstein_'s writings than this junk http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=01-08-2015#1220877. as prophetic as this bit of ta was ☝︎
funkenstein_: I've been busy but got several pieces started and torn up ;)
funkenstein_: perhaps in some way similar to simply passing around a massive virtual machine file (yes I'm fishing for a correction on this) ☟︎
funkenstein_: I must say the rotor is a software release like no other I have seen, yes very deterministic
pete_dushenski: cool. i'm currently wandering through 'inside the whale'
pete_dushenski: funkenstein_: lol cheers. i'm sorta surprised i didn't need more help than i did
funkenstein_: The man has a great point, but, where did this thing start that humans are not animals, and in what crib do I find it to strangle it? ☟︎
shinohai: I liked this morning article as well. You may have noticed I fumbled the syntax.
pete_dushenski: shinohai: wonder of wonder, miracle of miracles, i took rotor by the hand, turned him around and - miracle of miracles - led him to the promised land ! ☟︎
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-08-2015#1236842 << all three of these were translated (the traditional ru single-voice crappy dub) and i saw'em as a boy ☝︎
shinohai: ;;later tell pete_dushenski pm me and I'll get you past http://dpaste.com/3VCV3R8.txt
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-08-2015#1236937 << i read some variant of this claptrap on usenet, in, when, '96 ? ☝︎
asciilifeform: i am not a clairvoyant, cannot read your hard disk ! gotta give me something to work with. ☟︎
assbot: Logged on 13-08-2015 04:55:16; mircea_popescu: <phf> i thought Thompson was mostly a polemicist, are there any articles of his where he successfully "blows a lid" off something? << no.
asciilifeform: smoke screen is the only rational explanation i can think of thus far.
asciilifeform: what i don't get is - why?
shinohai: https://i.imgur.com/UFOEbGr.png hue
shinohai: I buy tomatoes at farmers market usually.
cazalla: tomatoes i've got planned are black cherry, mary italian and sweetie
cazalla: i've got a couple chillis to go in this spring - anaheim and royal black
shinohai: Literally tons of it growing around her place. I wish she grew pot.
shinohai: I usually leave with a bundle of cilantro and onions too
shinohai: I am almost ashamed to addmit I will converse with this old Mexican lady for up to an hour just because I love her damned pepper garden.
cazalla: guy's a barber too but just like his offer to take what i want from his backyard, i turn down offers for haircut and straight razor shave ☟︎
cazalla: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-08-2015#1236757 <<< can vouch for this.. the 80 year old guy over the fence is always inviting me over to just stroll into his backyard and take what i want.. tools, veggies, whatever, help yourself he says but he is also a little senile so i've not taken up the offer lest he call the police because some intruder is in the backyard ☝︎
cazalla: ah shit, not more than 10 lines later and i see shinohai beat me to it
assbot: Logged on 12-08-2015 13:15:19; asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-08-2015#1235694 << if i had to move to another usg fiefdom, why not, e.g., midwest usa instead? same as australia, but easier resupply and fewer natural hazards
BingoBoingo: The lawyer who has taken custody of my planetary acquainance is a good person though. I trust she will keep him safe. Her political opinions are close to Pete's except for the Bitcoin is going to burn the world part.
BingoBoingo: I have a fat acquaintence who moved to Shitcago. His fellow probationers are a harder and less human sort than he did rehab with here.
pete_dushenski: you'd know better than i
pete_dushenski: i'm trolling a local newsrag and need to know how far to take my schtick :)
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: it probably grosses a couple million a year ? leaving a net of a few hundred k, i'd wager
pete_dushenski: 30 rock might actually be the last tv show i watched that had me in stitches
fluffypony: As the new owner of this account I have removed any feedback left by the previous owner as a courtesy before I sell the account.
fluffypony: I just got a pm from WoodCollector
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: did you have any 'absolute path' issues when setting up coracle ? i still haven't overcome this issue with my rotor attempts
mircea_popescu: though it is manipulated from time to time so as to make sure that only light music will come out of it. I know people who will keep the radio playing all through a meal and at the same time continue talking just loudly enough for the voices and the music to cancel out. This is done with a definite purpose. The music prevents the conversation from becoming serious or even coherent, while the chatter of voices stops one
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=10-08-2015#1233728 << if it still works i'll buy it from you ☝︎
trinque: didn't see the film, but now I can see wanting to
wilbns: didn't see the movie, but there was all kinds of wacked out stuff happening in the cartoon. that was the first time i think i saw two animated characters getting it on w/ each other
wilbns: after hanna barbera stuff and disney cartoons, will never forget the first time i accidentally stumbled upon aeon flux: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVZXElRgYwk
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> <phf> it's not like you end up giving out trash, i lose books that i then have to buy again << seriously, giving women books is fucktarded. either order her to buy and read it, or forget it. << Been a decade and months since my mistake. Recognized when I wanted to see them again.
wilbns: mircea_popescu: haha, yes, exactly, that was my favorite candy as a kid which is why i liked the cartoon
mircea_popescu: i had no idea they were a cartoon
mircea_popescu: wilbns dude i think i ate some of those
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: i'm taking notes here on cartoonz for kidz, so keep 'em comin. ☟︎
pete_dushenski: 'the real ghostbusters' (cartoon) was developed by columbia pictures and 'dic entertainment'. i'm not sure that it was any good, more that the siren sound of the car as played in the theme song was really rather memorable
trinque: I still re-watch ren & stimpy time to time
pete_dushenski: i definitely enjoyed animaniacs and pinky and the brain, never watched much cow&chick
pete_dushenski: not that i have any real love lost for ghostbusters movies, but the cartoons...
mircea_popescu: <phf> it's not like you end up giving out trash, i lose books that i then have to buy again << seriously, giving women books is fucktarded. either order her to buy and read it, or forget it.
mircea_popescu: <phf> i thought Thompson was mostly a polemicist, are there any articles of his where he successfully "blows a lid" off something? << no. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: <mats> i chatted up a cutie at the farmers market today << win.
BingoBoingo: I am actually not sure to this day if that girl is literate herself.
phf: it's not like you end up giving out trash, i lose books that i then have to buy again
phf: i've lost a lot of good books that way
BingoBoingo: I gave my copy to some girl I fancied at the time which was not the girl I fancied at the time who would have appreciated it.
BingoBoingo: USG, I will send you to Kismet and I will eat your soul
phf: i thought Thompson was mostly a polemicist, are there any articles of his where he successfully "blows a lid" off something?
trinque: I remember that happening, and the reality of it sinking in
trinque: poor fella went for a 130mph drive in the middle of the night, I suppose I'm supposed to believe
mats: i don't, but i've been meaning to try hydroponics anyway
BingoBoingo: mats: On the plus side those things were really productive when they grew. If you have any outdoor space be it a yard or balcony I highly reccomend them.
mats: when i see her again i will ask for hers and then make fun of her at dinner
trinque: sounds terrible; I'd rather pass judgment on squash too
phf: i've rarely seen patissons in stores
mats: i will be watchful
BingoBoingo: Ah mats if you find the small white ones, they are especially delicious. Save a couple for seeds though. It was $2.50 for six seeds this spring for the pattypan squash. Never have I seen seeds that expensive for a vegetable. Worth it though, just saving them this year.
mats: the label at the stand said 'golden striped squash' i believe
mats: i told a friend these events in exactly the same order as irc and she told me i'm gay :(
mats: pricy shit at the market though, i spent ~20 on six linked sausages weighing 2lbs total
mats: i was looking at a buncha nice summer squash and it barely registered that someone was facing me for five seconds
mats: i think she was coming back to talk to me but then decided not to when i didn't notice her at the periphery of my vision
mats: i chatted up a cutie at the farmers market today
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: From what I understand Pismo has finicky drive controller. Must use drive from whitelist.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: me, if i can't get the bugger reading ssd!
mircea_popescu: i think it's just one photon
mircea_popescu: i can hear them think.
mircea_popescu: but i can't breathe the air in the same room with these.
mircea_popescu has for many years now meditated on this point, but i do not think i loathe or despise any class more than the bureaucrat. i have no problem hanging out with convicted murderes, wanton rapists, the insane, dying men or women, and probably aliens
asciilifeform: and i meant, 'straight rip'
mircea_popescu: i have no idea why i keep engaging random nobodies online, but hey.
mats: oh ok. i recall tat being offered pc5 but i see now he did not accept
Adlai: kakobrekla: i'm still waiting on the bit4x api
mats: nah. i'm just less poor. maybe i'll buy a pair of pants.
