trinque: I don't think baseball has been the american "thing" for
a generator or more
gernika: mod6 didn't realize 0.5.3 didn't have -reindex, so attempted
a reindex with old .dat files (backed up blkindex.dat and last blk*.dat) - so I think I'm just syncing from scratch at this point. Not sure how useful my log would be at this point.
ascii_field: 'Naturally all the documentation is keep secret, but
a quick Google search would reveal that one can't simultaneously work at place x, and give lectures at place y, while x and y are hours of travel away. But again the people who control the grant money only check the paperwork they are provided. Is there
a bogus employment contract in my name? I don't know but I have reasons to believe so.'
mircea_popescu: "impostor syndrome" is how sanity is known among the playful bunch, busy play-pretending
a life and daydreaming an existence. the silkworms awake./
mircea_popescu: it is
a good idea to describe anything overgrown, neotenic idiots do as "
a game". because yes, they're playing.
mircea_popescu: "Should you suddenly find yourself with enough success to, say, help significantly decrease poverty and famine in some 3rd world country, would you be prepared and ready with
a game-plan"
mod6: <+gernika> mod6: bastard blocks for roughly 10 hours now. Perhaps I corrupted my db? << hmm. not sure? are you getting errors as opposed to just bastard blocks? maybe post last 250 lines of your debug.log and we can have
a look.
ascii_field: this was kinda the idea though. 'now ~everyone~ can be
a degenerate aristocrat!'
mircea_popescu: give asciilifeform
a proper windows license while at it, so he stops having to toil with the obscure bullshit he is now.
mircea_popescu: go ahead, "make things better" for fefeleaga by what ? giving her
a breadmaking machine ?
a pegassus ? what are you going to GIVE her ?
a job at the local airport ?
a newly built apartment ?
mircea_popescu: i don't think this is at all controversial. the degenerate children of
a lost aristocracy are the primary fuel of the imbecillity of revolution.
phf: shalamov makes
a convincing argument in
a story about natalia klimova, one of the ladies that tried to assassinate stolypin, that the way for soviet regime was paved by people who read stories like fefeleaga and decided that something needs to be done. it was already 20 years of terrorism by mostly educated aristocracy children, "from vegetarianism and love thy neighbor to throwing bombs"
mircea_popescu: into which you ran, like i have, by trying to translate
a certain russian word ?
ascii_field: (srsly, mega-book, worth at least
a warez reading)
mircea_popescu: if your leg bends to match the tunic it's quite clear you're in fact wearing
a tunic, not merely
a similar looking apron.
mircea_popescu: much like you know someone's using
a hammer for it being
a hammer through the sign that the flat part goes to put the nail in and the fork to pull the nail back out.
mircea_popescu has seen people wearing to work the legionnaire tunics, and knows for
a fact that they were wearing the same item by the unerring sign, that they used the same points of them.
mircea_popescu: the differences between
a 1500 yo people and
a 2500 yo people are marked.
trinque: if yours doesn't, be glad, but you still end up gnarled and old, and perhaps with
a few more horses
trinque: the desolation in the story is imo
a healthy thing to consider.
ascii_field: mayakovsky had the sense to eat his nagant as
a young man
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i dun have the patience for animated full length features. but i did like the ... shit, what was it called. the one where the guy breaks in and murders
a buncha women. one of them confronts him, in perhaps the best scene of japanese cinema
mircea_popescu: most objectionable character on record, doubtlessly
a fine poet.
mircea_popescu: romania has (actually - had. i published
a post asking for his death and he died three days later) one too, adrian paunescu.
ascii_field: he had
a well-deserved reputation as
a hack and bootlick
ascii_field: (where
a serf drowns his dog, the only thing he ever loved)
mike_c: trilema traffic is going to drop by half as your readers start jumping off
a cliff.
punkman: "FDA registered as
a durable medical devise"
punkman: "Obviously it would be better for you both if you could discuss this openly: she would rather not waste time if she won’t get hired, and you would rather not reject your top candidate. Unfortunately, I don’t think you should assume that you can safely discuss this. If you decline to hire someone after finding out that they have
a covered disability, you may expose yourself to
a lawsuit."
BingoBoingo: I mean at some point you'll have to throw hm to the wolves for
a bit lest the wolves find him anyways
BingoBoingo: I though you had to send them to the wolve for
a couple years to toughen them up
a bit, but maybe save that for later
assbot: overweight employee keeps breaking office chairs, my boss won't give me
a budget, and more — Ask
a Manager ... (

cazalla: lol was just discussing enrolling kid in
a montessori pre-school from 2 1/2 years onwards no less than 30m ago
punkman: clearly, it wasn't
a very good book
punkman: I dunno how
a "tiny" supermarket has overnight sales of 1 million
punkman: "To give you an idea of how desperate
a retailer has to be to close overnight, the tiny supermarket where I work, which is about half the size of
a Wal-Mart’s food section, lost 1 million dollars per year when it closed down overnight in 2009. "
wilbns: something about the glowing particulate and the presence of two explosions, the first of which possibly being to trigger
a criticality event
wilbns: BingoBoingo: wow, can't imagine what
a nuke would be like, then
BingoBoingo: Fat People hate is basically
a suckless movement for wetware
BingoBoingo: Black chicks that aren't fat are too damn rare. Shame and fat hate are
a way to correct that with time honored social engineering.
cazalla: i thought that was
a bit of
a no no?
assbot: Logged on 14-08-2015 00:32:27; mircea_popescu:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-08-2015#1237131 << im starting to suspect
a "alf's guide to coreboot" full doc would be more valuable than anything on cryptome currently and really
a great addition to loper-os. provided it actually is complete.
cazalla: of course there looks to be nothing wrong when it is
a b&w photo which is dimly lit to boot
cazalla: her legs look skinny in the reflection eh, maybe it is
a skinny to fat photo edited with adobe photoshop
cazalla: why is
a woman dressed like that in
a shopping centre anyway?
cazalla: needs
a few beers.. which i have being friday and all
BingoBoingo: trinque: The path to
a big ass is the squat rack
trinque: big asses ftw. there's
a middle ground here.
cazalla: just needs to lose
a little off the belly
cazalla: it is
a little more like being forced to wear
a puffy shirt than fear of being gay
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> senator hurrdurr (who really seems an exact mirror image of ron paul in left colorings) is certainly out of the question, but omfg don't tell me trump takes over and does
a postmodern rendition of reagan << it is going to be glorious
trinque: there's also
a secret property-knocking handshake you can do to turn any div into
a game of pacman
ben_vulpes: trinque: didja get to the part where he talks about implementing
a single-line rich-text-editor ?
trinque: ben_vulpes: how does
a guy know about editable divs and not disallowing wrap?
trinque: mircea_popescu: yes, felt that story presents
a nice bottom-bound on the misery-ometer
ben_vulpes is working 18 hour weeks to keep
a miserably mismanaged cms project from auguring into the ground at mach 2
trinque: I feel I've done
a great service aiming her at the parentheses early
assbot: The blocksize debate is due to limited upload bandwidth.
A hardfork could fix this: by allowing 10 minutes for *all* nodes to upload their blocks into
a "blockpool" (so nodes with slow internet have
a chance too), and then *randomly* select one block as the "winner" to append to the blockchain. : Bi ... (

trinque:
a deeply moving story. thanks for translating.
trinque: reduces to "I matter" and I suppose any living thing making
a sound is also saying that
assbot: Logged on 14-08-2015 02:11:19; trinque: her exact request was for
a "real computer, and to learn how to program"
gernika: Does it take
a while to get past 367850? Or might I still be stuck...
mod6: oh i just deleted
a ')', im screwed.
trinque: so you're right, scheme's
a good choice
trinque: her exact request was for
a "real computer, and to learn how to program"
☟︎ trinque: btw, my ex-gf had no trouble with the gentoo guide aside from asking me about the definitions of
a few terms
mircea_popescu: that said, static allocation goes
a long way. this connects to the "fixed time" discussion re rsa yest.
