mircea_popescu: much better than the alternative "career woman" from
a purely moral standpoint.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: why would
a fella who owns 'rpg7' need inflatable gurl ?
assbot: Logged on 10-07-2015 14:53:07; decimation: but there exists
a class of non-irc-savvy people who are actual people
mircea_popescu: it's
a pity ulcer got naggum. it is out of the question we change how ulcer works to get people.
assbot: Logged on 10-07-2015 14:47:44; asciilifeform: what openness, when tomorrow, e.g., taleb, logs in, and gets ddosed off by
a tard
mircea_popescu: rtc/interrupts seems to me
a much worse scheme than ic2 clock / interrupts
mircea_popescu: yes, you'll prolly be safe to keep
a coupla btc for going to porcfest.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i have no idea what sort of an argument is this. there's no such thing as good or bad entropy. the thing is unqualifiable by definition. do you mean that you'd have to wait longer to generate
a strong address? so you would.
thestringpuller: ascii_field: can't crowdsource
a cumshot. save that for the professionals.
punkman: supports
a lot of chinese boxes
trinque: iirc mircea_popescu called 300
a week or two ago
trinque: ben_vulpes: I had it running on
a buffalo something
ben_vulpes: anyone running dd-wrt have
a recommendation on midprice router hardware?
ascii_field: (it still needs
a chassis, power, storage, ... clock!)
trinque: when it had one subreddit and wasn't well known you could almost have
a conversation on there
thestringpuller: nigga, hate fuels MPOE stock prices. we'll probably be able to trade hate as
a currency soon with all the butthurt.
Adlai: "never trust
a fart^H^H^H^H^Hn IP address" - bill murray
decimation:
http://blog.bofh.it/id_456 < "Short summary: if these emails are true, and so far nobody has found any credible reason to believe that they are not, then some major italian ISPs hijacked the IP addresses of
a foreign ISP on request of the section of the Carabinieri which investigates terrorism and organized crime."
Adlai educates the qwerty-sheltered public that L is
a common dvorak typo for the query suffix
trinque: really isn't
a "learn C" task eh?
ascii_field: my current hypothesis is that all the relevant folks are waiting for 'gossipd' and don't give much of
a fuck
☟︎ ascii_field: meanwhile taleb and uncleal will log in, witness
a thread about dogecoin, then get
a flood of ddos, vomit, and never return
ascii_field: one possible idea re: how to let n00bs speak: host
a few 'bathyscaphe' bots, having www-based chat on one end and
a pre-regged cloaked account on the other. but if
a bozo connect to one, can be signalled from here to add his ip to ban list.
danielpbarron also wonders what is the correct gender pronoun for
a bot, and in particular, assbot
Adlai: no that is clearly
a violation of intergalactic law
Adlai experienced sudden router failure mere moments after rejoining freenode, same router had functioned just fine for
a while before
Adlai: which is tbh more consistent with what happened
a few weeks ago
☟︎ williamdunne: jurov: There was
a thought process behind it, but not
a though process to be proud of.
kakobrekla: but if you have only lurkers you dont have
a chan really
decimation: but there exists
a class of non-irc-savvy people who are actual people
☟︎ decimation: how about
a policy of randomly kicking people who are remoras?
Adlai may have gotten whacked by it,
a while back
shinohai: I posted
a qntra article there and got the most downvotes EVAH
BingoBoingo: I stopped submitting qntra to reddit myself, because I'd rather just make reddit
a more miserable place on my own without the bunny drawing aggro
shinohai: I used to have like
a ton of reddit troll accounts
BingoBoingo: shinohai: I don't have
a formal patch for this, just
a recipe in dpaste. Not comfortable enough to formally submit. All it is supposed to do is allow you to set the -minrelaytxfee flag in Bitcoin.conf which isn't
a big deal because if you are building it you can just change the number in main.h
BingoBoingo: So recovered the instance of bitcoind-stator-minrelaytxfeeconfflag to resume old stator's sync. And now I started it on
a fresh one.
BingoBoingo: So stator with experimental minrelaytxfee option patch was syncing well as
a drop in replacement for previous stator on testbed then laptop became unplugged and battery dead. Restarted with -rescan because BDB hates stopping suddenly and the blockindex is screwed.
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell xemist you know this is irc not
a forum. you gotta stick around for anything to work.
mircea_popescu: right. no more of that "seinfeld doesn't wanna do more shows so he gets
a bn dollars and then decides when to end the series"
punkman: "Gogglebox is
a British observational documentary which has aired on Channel 4 since 7 March 2013. The show features recurring couples, families and friends from across the United Kingdom sitting in their living rooms watching weekly British television shows."
assbot: Logged on 10-07-2015 04:44:37; asciilifeform: galileo was also in planning at the time (ru 'glonas' was in
a serious state of decay and not relevant) and one legend goes that clinton's order was
a failed gambit to sink it
mircea_popescu: punkman the time intervals don't at all match
a ddos. that's usually
a 5 minute stay.
assbot: Logged on 10-07-2015 03:14:47; asciilifeform: ~another~ interesting scientific instrument would be
a fly trap for invalid tx
punkman: trinque: this python-gnupg is
a motherfucking piece of shit << which one are you using?
decimation: there's
a huge difference between selective availablity and turning off service
decimation: that's
a big deal, especially with all the aircraft around wash dc
decimation: if over
a civilized area there are going to be lots of innocent bystanders
decimation:
http://www.insidegnss.com/node/3054 "“We'll be ready to launch the first GPS III in 2015, but it now appears the next generation GPS Operational Control System, or OCX, won't be ready for about
a year or two after that,” General William L. Shelton, commander of Air Force Space Command told attendees at the 28th Annual National Space Symposium. "
decimation: ^ yeah that's honestly
a bigger threat
decimation: Vexual: it would be
a big deal if civilian gps service were degraded
decimation: hitler would only do this (in
a civilized place) at the cost of massive disruption to many things
decimation: I wish; I view blowing
a few $k on computers and electronics to be
a big expense
decimation: "Aircraft conducting WAAS approaches must possess certified GPS receivers, which are much more expensive than non-certified units. In 2006, Garmin's least expensive certified receiver, the GNS 430W, had
a suggested retail price of US$10,750.[27]"
decimation: interesting selective availability messed with time stability by
a factor of 3
decimation: the stability and accuracy of modern clocks actually enables
a great deal of science and engineering
decimation: "
A 5071A uses about 50 W at 24 VDC (~2
A)." damn that's alot of battery power
decimation: that's
a neat project (the gps receiver)
decimation: but
a new one will be >$500 in small qty
