them
a111: Logged on 2017-11-07 20:05 asciilifeform: ( which will last maybe 40 min. when actual war, but nobody seems
to give a shit. )
mircea_popescu: 1. full employment ; 2. notwitstanding full employment, no work being done ever observed ; 3. notwithstanding no work being done ever observed, all plans realised > 100% ; 4. notwithstanding all plans always overfulfilled, no useful products ever on
the open market ; 5. notwithstanding no products ever on open market, everyone well supplied ; 6. notwithstanding everyone well supplied, everyone always stealing ; 7. notwithstan

to work.
mircea_popescu: "this is
the new consensus-community developed standard"

the enemy doesn't realistically have resource
to stand next
to everyone. see bitcoin: can't make rewriting history impossible, lets make it unprofitable.
mircea_popescu:

this is a doubtful proposition, as
the enemy is basically "idiots", and much like nature having much more energy
to burn
than you do, idiots are much more affixed
to
their idiotarian ideology
than you will ever be
to yours.
☝︎ a111: Logged on 2017-11-07 19:15 asciilifeform: well yes, in
the sense
that
they spend
the vast majority of
time, silent

to a reasonable value, but
there's probably no escape from "keep moving"
mircea_popescu: charge
tesla by running mercedes so
the hipsters can hipster
mircea_popescu: i'd like a car like
that, insteadof
the "planet saving" bullshit.
mircea_popescu: i guess.
though im not sure i want
to perma-carry
the generator coils.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
that pos goes over
the wheel, bs. i want
to bolt it on instead of
the wheel!
ben_vulpes: noob will hammer
throttle, wheels will lose
traction ~instantly
ben_vulpes: more perfectly correct software
to write.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> ( vs motor-per-wheel ) << requires more software for
traction control when you have all of
the
torque starting from 0
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo may have
the exact recipe,
this is a
thing welders, cement people, etc. actually do. << Called a "power
take off" Standard issue on
tractors. Special order on
trucks.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform>
the gearbox is massive loss Internal friction in motor pistons ~50% loss, so what?
ben_vulpes: and how; wrightspeed has mega boner-inducing
turbine generator
ben_vulpes still a fan of
the wrightspeed/volt model of onboard generation and electric drivetrain
ben_vulpes: not intractable, just more complicated
than bolting a muxer
to
the driveshaft.
mircea_popescu: and motor per wheel works on you know, 50ton
tatra mining
truck.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes gets it.
the have
the zamak because cheapest answer
to dynamic problems.
ben_vulpes: take out
that drivetrain and
they'll blow over in
the wind
mircea_popescu: no you don't, you have a
truck alternator on a shitty nissan.
mircea_popescu: basically a slightly overgrown common alternator, like fit for a
truck, but put on car and hurr durr we have hybrids
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i
tried like 5 diff ones,
they're all shit.
mircea_popescu: and much better
than any fucking converted lawnmower
they sell as generator, for
that matter.
mircea_popescu: and most of
the weight of
the 30kg generator
that needs a fuckming crane
to move comfortably is
the fucking engine, which guess what, i already have.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: for one
thing, inductive load is generally 3x
the rated draw. 3kw is not a fucking ac unit for instance.
mircea_popescu: i guess. but welding
the washing machine into
the
truck bed seems meh.
mircea_popescu: how would
the perma-modded
truck fucking drive
to
there ?
mircea_popescu: that's not what i want. i want a washingmachine dynamo i can put in
the back of
the
truck and
take
to middle of nowhere for
tailgate party with megawatt power available.
mircea_popescu: at least on good quality german makes, it's not. i dunno about
toyota nissan
mircea_popescu: i don't want
that crap. i want a unit
the size of washing machine.
mircea_popescu: park your car, put out 50kW or w/e
the conversion yielkds.
mircea_popescu: i want an unit which lifts up
the bridge, plugs into
the car as if it were a wheel, and
then simply converts.
mircea_popescu: what IS however overwhelmingly present in su of
today is
the howl of
the newstyle ligthtbulb balancing circuits.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-07 18:48 asciilifeform: reason is so
that each station can be physically indistinguishable, from outside
the door, from, e.g., a defective lift motor
that arcs a bit
mircea_popescu: tbh, by comparison with
the volume of spurious strings pasted into shitsites,
the amount of idle for loops executed
to date seems dismall. less reddit more foring.
mircea_popescu: more
than nothing. for all
the idle cycles being burned erryday...
mircea_popescu: but effect large enough
to observe experimentally was observed experimentally.
mircea_popescu: numeric methods
to
the rescue. wtf are computers even for amirite.
mircea_popescu: i suppose at
this juncture a moderately interesting item would be
to run some for loops and see.
