TomServo: Sweltering in
the desert heat of another Gentoo quest.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> definitely acceptable for first month anyway, i'd say. <<
The second month will be more organized in
the course of going along
shinohai: You can buy
the pansy-ass modified ones with breathing
tubes @ local sex shop.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-06 12:55 mircea_popescu: well, we're looking
to hire a local.
ben_vulpes: unrelatedly, read "incremental approach
to compiler construction" recently; reads like a "make you a scheme for great good" for von neumann fans
jhvh1: asciilifeform:
The operation succeeded.

RagnarDanneskjol: ah ok, will send anyone i find
that seems competent. Preference is located in BJ or surrounding areas for some reason?
mircea_popescu: spend
the usual 200 hours/week connected
to irc and doing whatever clerical
tasks provided. must be native chinese speaker with a reasonable command of english, she's not expected
to
take calls or anything in it.
☟︎ RagnarDanneskjol: he or she needs
to be able
to
take calls in Chinese , English and be able
to do what else approximately?
RagnarDanneskjol: MP - I
tried
to follow
the 'girl worker at a desk in Beijing' conversation, but not quite clear on
the requirement
there - anything I can do
to help? I know lots of ppl in BJ and will be
there for work next week.
shinohai: I shall have
to purchase a pin meter and hire
the services of 10-20 women
to
test
this hypothesis .....
mircea_popescu: i can't say i've had
the experience. but... sounds like
they're
trying
to overperform
to impress ? not a bad
trait it itself.
RagnarDanneskjol: I am
totally with you on "where is it written" Fuckin A,
these Cali chicks always
trying
to prove something in
the sac. I'm having
the same conversation all
the
time - 'where is it written
that you have
to grind my dick off like a jackhammer before you even start
to get wet?
shinohai: Espero k
tengas un dia muy bestial! =^.^=
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo item is markedly better in
that it contains factual details ; still not great in
that
the details
there present are disorganised, not evidently sorted into a complete
tree with branches clipped by an obvious importance criteria and so on.
BingoBoingo: Yes, Brazilian DC very hungry for business.
The why of
their hunger is a portion of
the reason I have been getting practice patching drywall
these past
two weeks.
BingoBoingo: Brazil also has lingering liability in uncertain import duties for servers and networking equipment. Being
the biggest, supposedly most
togetherest on
their continent has apparently fucked
their heads.
BingoBoingo: Well yeah. Buncha people with paper frantically
trying
to keep
the pretense of
the paper's promises going. Who needs Vandals and Goths when you have baby boomers.
BingoBoingo: However plenty of "business hosts" servicing people who want long
term re-entry visa
to Brazil
BingoBoingo still has lawyer
to offer. Lawyer response rate has been dismal.
mircea_popescu: get
the specific item, corp reg for sale by lawyer with no activity.
BingoBoingo: Most on
the market are failed gringo lifestyle projects
BingoBoingo: Hopefully
that is
the route fellipelali's contacts will lead, but substantial due diligence required. A lot of pre-regd corps in Brazil are loaded with debt.
mircea_popescu: in juristidctions where
that is
the case, saner lawyers have pre-regd corps ready
to be sold.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: One month
to reg corp in Brazil, more
to bring corp online once corp'd
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo srsly,
takes months
to reg a corp in brazil ?!
BingoBoingo: Colombia also has substantial cable coming in from across
the Caribean and
through
the Isthmus
BingoBoingo: Still
trying
to move forward on Brazil, but gotta keep
the parallelism up in
the search lest locking issues screw
the whole
thing until next year.
BingoBoingo: It's still
there, but
they
timeline
to make a business
there is months out so I am still slutting it up and looking for faster sexier prospects where something might be able
to
turn on by
Thanksgiving
mircea_popescu: whjat happened
to
teh brazil prospect ? sounded reasonable enough ?
hanbot: aha. sixty's pretty shitty, but relative
to other service industries not so bad...
BingoBoingo: Tomorrow cold calling Uruguay,
then Colombia
BingoBoingo: Peru's a no go. Only independent "datacenters" advertising as such
there aren't in
the colo business.
They are in
the Pinoy spam for Espanol speakers business
hanbot: hey nice report BingoBoingo. what sorta percentage of
the 56 dcs contacted wrote back at all, for
the curious?
a111: Logged on 2017-11-04 17:58 asciilifeform: re: cryptoradio, here's a gedankenexperiment: consider a
tx station consisting of 2 separated (by, say, a km+ of cable)
transmitters; each sends prng soup across a few 100MHz . modulation of payload is strictly via altering
their relative ~amplitudes~ .
mircea_popescu: reports are
to
the past, and are definite.
they are not concerned with either
the future or "possibilities"
a111: Logged on 2017-09-14 23:43 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform why do you imagine shit
that's dumb when pete_dushenski does it is any less dumb whewn you do it ?
a111: Logged on 2017-05-03 20:04 mircea_popescu: dude, just call. nevermind
the "questions" and rest of
the crap. spend 1/10 of
the
time you frittered away already "on"
this
to call, write up your report, "i, pete d, aspiring
to one day lordship, spent 8 hours
today cold calling. i managed a
total of 76 calls, which would get me fired from
the average call center but hey, i'm new.
these 76 calls went
to so and so, here's
the script, here's why i ammended it and when, here's
trinque: jurov:
there ya are, relative links for bundles
jurov: and you consider
the reasons above sufficient?
trinque: can change
the links, sure
trinque: didn't say anything other
than I don't do anything without a reason
jurov: Lastly, as an appeal
to any
trace of ocd present, links
to individual deeds are relative already, and i don't see why
the difference.
jurov: also, with only relative links, one can use
the mirror as local files without any changes
jurov: or you say i must make own subdomain
to host it?
jurov: because
the mirror does not live at root path
trinque: (totally could change links, just want
to hear why)
trinque: how'd it be converting
the URL? absolute path is absolute
jurov: it appears wget links conversion is
total mess and even works differently between versions
jurov: namely: <a href="/bundle-492667.txt">492667</a> bundle links and
the stylesheet
jurov: trinque: mime-types are fine, but if you could please convert all absolute paths
to relative, it would be swell
mircea_popescu: apparently
the redditards are
taking very seriously
their "become
the hot
topic of
the 2010s" mission.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-06 11:40 Framedragger: hello! reporting alive status. went for extended
travels
through portugal and
the likes, moved into apartment in homeland, managing whole new (to me) world of poly relationships, and other fun stuff.
mircea_popescu: not enough sense
to handle own gender, not enough sense
to contribute
to public conversation.
BingoBoingo: And physical plant work has
transition
to more softical plant condensation
shinohai: Not
that I have
that # of boxes, but overall feel
shinohai: Is it sad
that *my* home setup looks more sophisticated
than
that?
