ben_vulpes: doesn't make
the scytale an acceptable cipher
ang-st: well consider
them neighboor with different coutume :)
mircea_popescu: working with
the republic is entirely dependent on working ON republican methods.
ang-st: mircea_popescu: question@tetaneutral.net it you want
to put a box
there
ang-st: needed some
time
to figure out otp stuff
mircea_popescu: ang-st so what'd it cost me for you folks
to host 1 sealed box, containing an opteron 6376 as above, cool it and feed it its required wattage and bw ?
mircea_popescu: ang-st say !!up
to deedbot in a pm,
then !!v with
the challenge string
mircea_popescu: well, also a cheap explanation as
to why
there's "flat earth" believers
to
this day. but we digress.
ang-st: juste an easy way
to feel "high level"
ang-st: i feel
that considering people as cow, or what ever, isn't a good way
to make line move
ang-st: sorry dunno
the reference
mircea_popescu: ang-st my point, conversely, is
that
the general public is as human as
the population of holstein cattle. nobody cares nor ever will.
ang-st: my point is crypto concept are still miles away from general public (and i consider most user of
ttnn as general public)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you wanna send one box on an adventure
to
these folk ?
ang-st: how long beetween
the seminal RSA paper and it's widespread use ?
ang-st: but i
think it's a bit early
mircea_popescu: ie
the makers of
the endless september,
the " a burden if mandatory or simply ignored".
mircea_popescu: ang-st
there's a matter of scope here, your => 4652.00 (total en moyenne mensuelle) is 2/3 or so of
the random advance pushed out
to one purveyor of eventual
tmsr.isp.
the republic is indeed mighty in
this sense ; meanwhile
there's also an ideological rub,
the republic is dedicatedly elitist whereas from what i see
the whole point of
this
tetaneutral
thing is
to support specifically
those-who-should-not-be-permitted-online,
☟︎ ang-st: well you might give a
try :-)
ang-st: might work if most of our users were
tech savy, but
tbh
the way it goes actually it would be a burden if mandatory or simply ignored beside some folks in any other cases
mircea_popescu: as it happens we're right in
the middle of building republican infrastructure, in principle at least as
to what meets
the eye very similar
to whart you have
there.
ang-st: well i
tried
to push for bitcoin at some point, but didn't get many support
mircea_popescu: also : any interest in moving your associates registration
to
the already existing and well developed deedbot WoT infrastrcture ? payments via same system, in bitcoin ?
ang-st: well,
that's kind of stuff
that you might
talk at #tetaneutral.net
mircea_popescu: any interest in getting a rack or
two in a similar squat somewhere in
the colonies, algerie, morocco, whatever ?
ang-st: well we have a
true DC room, and an "assocative" one (as in french
term association which stand for non profit org)
deedbot: davout rated ang-st 1 << didn't run away screaming in
the first
ten minutes
davout: !!rate ang-st 1 didn't run away screaming in
the first
ten minutes
mircea_popescu: basically it's a whole pile of "how could i reinterpret
the world
through my firmly held notions of biblical
truth".
this is nice and good, provided a large solid comedy goldmine for
the whole 1800s, "darwinism debate" still ongoing in particularily protected corners of
the swamp.
mircea_popescu: of course,
the original pope
trying for
this ended up going around barefoot in
the snow
to beg forgiveness.
mircea_popescu: if all
the "here's
the usg-bitcoin, accept it in exchange" doesn't work as it hasn't with ripple/ethereum/bitcoin-core/crash/whatever,
the only remaining avenue is
the idly papal claim
to "all
the bitcoins".
mircea_popescu: but yes, one'd fully expect pretend-sovereigns of
the fiat ilk
to arbitrarily assign
themselves
title in bitcoin. why
the hell not,
they've assinged
themselves "representativity" of "society" and "justice" and "the environment" and so forth.

the random guy having
this random convo with me was davout
a111: Logged on 2017-11-09 17:34 asciilifeform: as it is it barely can afford
trucks
that dun leak oil, much less any quantity of 'bigdog'
a111: Logged on 2017-11-09 17:33 asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: in any case it hasn't applied
to generals ever since
they stopped being expected
to lead men on horseback into attack
ben_vulpes: "and for as long as your citizens run free 802.* rebroadcasters, we're going
to be utterly uninterdictable"
a111: Logged on 2017-11-07 20:01 asciilifeform: observe,
the problem dun exist if you already have your own pyongyang and can happily put a megawatt station
there and invite whoever objects,
to pound sand up his arse
ben_vulpes: good idea
to do
that sooner rather
than later; provisional ratings are easy
to come by for
the newcomer who registers quickly, less so for
the obstinate/self-important
ben_vulpes: ang-st: anyways,
the way
this place works is
that you register a gpg key with deedbot, and
then maybe someone gives you provisional membership in
the list of folks
that can give
themselves speaking privileges
ang-st: asciilifeform: i
think you can grab a bunch
that are pretty active
ben_vulpes: gotta say, i've never seen
the perfect asshole
ang-st: i was about
to says rust :)
ben_vulpes: > because its authors are who
they are
ben_vulpes: you know,
the sort of
thing
that web pages do normally, but
that js idiots can't figure out how
to do
ang-st: even get a bounty if you're
that kind of guy :)
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: where
they show an image in
the chat based on its link
ben_vulpes: ang-st:
the other day i observed 'slack' fail
to inline a 7.4 meg gif because its authors are who
they are
ben_vulpes: what, you
think electron isn't fifteen packaged browsers?
ben_vulpes: eyy davout what is
this character going on about
ang-st: ben_vulpes: you're not on
that channel and i guess it's priv8
ang-st: i guess
the random guy having
this random convo with me was davout
☟︎ ang-st: ok i prefer grep
than
talking so, it will be fine
ang-st: so i
thought i might idle for a while, see what's going on
ang-st: a random conversation in
the internet
ben_vulpes: predator and phriendz seem
to work fine, so long as nobody's spoofing gps
mircea_popescu: well... military men. it's like a profession. if your
tax accountant sucks at go
that doesn't necessarily disqualify him from his line of work.
mircea_popescu: it's inexplicable,
to me at least, how virility is not part of
the army qualifying list, btw. "this dude does not look hot naked and
therefore can no longer be an army general. retired." seems perfectly mandatory for a fucking army.
mircea_popescu: "sack all o10 and over
that no longer have a supermodel mistress"
