that we ate all
the bugs and errors from "supporting utf", because look -
there's no fucking glyph-based way
to latex, in 2016.
mircea_popescu: inclusive except for
the only
thing
that matters. fuckers.

these useless imbeciles have added every last

a111: Logged on 2016-02-25 17:12 phf: i've been mulling over
that question with logs. fwiw, entire log can be kept in memory for analysis, annotation, whatever, 180mb as utf-8 byte arrays. with unicode strings
takes up
twice
the memory on 16-bit cmucl, and ~~4
times on 32-bit sbcl. i'm not yet convinced
that
transcoding everything you get into string and
then
transcoding it back
to a bytearray onto
the wire is
the best strategy
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform aw shit, did i just entice you

mircea_popescu: amusingly,
the slut/whore (woman
that does it with everyone because has an itch in her cunt / woman
that does it with everyone because has an itch in her purse) is not preserved. but 1k nevertheless.
mircea_popescu: also, my policy re "diacritics" as
they're called is
that i don't write
them, but i don't actually bother
to
take em out from

there's all sorts of ro literature i fixed on my blog, where it's quite evident what

to barnes&noble, sold okcupid
to iac, will sell his highschool sweetheart if it comes

that or no more starbucks.

to
talking
to people now.

the interval also ?) <<
The website has increasingly little
to hook, and is increasingly poorly populated. Last week Uruguay had 4 girls, now has 2. Extrapolating from Uruguay's 4 million population
this means ~35000 girls is all okc has left. Been in decline for a while, but now fallen sharply.

that was acceptable yesterday shouldn't have been, so we're going
to
talk importantly about
the people who did

to boot, it seems
that pointing wget at archive.is pages still doesn't capture
the 'dynamic' content alf alluded
to, such as
the inline images found in archives of noose-sites like

http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-18#1740385 <<
thing is, if I wget
the archive.is page with
the -pk option on, I get
turd-soup in many cases. For example, "wget -pk --user-agent="" -e robots=off --wait 1
http://archive.is/MiJ5U" yields a handful of .pngs and nothing else. Versus just wget-ing
the actual
trilema item with
the same options yields a perfectly usable local copy

the principal sad of

that it excludes

this is a mixed blessing --
the original it evidently copies did include it ; BUT it wasn't written in proper ipa.

the problem of "but mp, i have no way
