spyked: re http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-03#1892216 , http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-03#1892221 : a) do you mean the alt "title=..." text? I'll add it to the list of things to look into; b) pingback delivery is for now a manual process. will also have to add automation to thetarpit feature list ☝︎☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: need i mention that this is SUCH a wonderfully elegant device for checking exactly what we're interested in checking.
a111: Logged on 2019-02-03 17:20 mircea_popescu: hanbot pick a laptop, bake the man's cuntoo. (principal issue, that gentoo->cuntoo "bridge", see if his sig matches).
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in continuations http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-31#1891084 of antique lulz, http://trilema.com/2014/the-nigger-a-practical-exercise/ ☝︎
BingoBoingo working on a "You know me Al!" post for the reason that I still have quite a bit of hayseed stuck in my headcase
diana_coman: I suppose being "updates" you focused only on what changed in the week covered but A. it makes it very difficult to follow because there's no help to re-load Pizarro issues (maybe just a list of issues at the end with dates and carried over until issue fully addressed?) and B. if nothing happened on crucial issues, it's best to keep them pinging at least
BingoBoingo: The January 14th mega update indeed opened a lot of threads.
diana_coman: the way it reads now, Jan 14 update has a lot of things starting and then by Feb3rd nothing is heard of them at all
mircea_popescu: i expect phf at the very least will muchly love a republican drakma.
mircea_popescu: but i must protest re your blogotron that a) whay do footnote anchors not load the footnote in a hoover overlay! and b) whay does it send no pingbacks ? (or does it, did trilema eat them ?) ☟︎
BingoBoingo: It also amazes how much healthier the incentive structures are. For filling the stands and winning the City Series (a thing because owning the ballpark was a business) the bonus was a substantial percent of the player's celery. Today some Jewish kid is dicking around trying to get somewhere between 200-500 million USD guaranteed over the next decade.
BingoBoingo: Anyways, if there's anything that merits a mass printing its Al's inbox
mircea_popescu: unlike whatever large-headed thai moron struggling to figure out a pipe, i live in this enchanted world where all i need do is whine -- mp's own this-or-that regiment stands ready at the teat, to stuff it in my mouth.
mircea_popescu: ny socialite burned 10-20 a week "entertaining"
mircea_popescu: it wasn't very much money at the time. at least not looking at it from an anachronistic perspective and from within a society where athleticism is the only nobility left.
mircea_popescu: gotta be possible! cuz when a man sets his mind to it, aint not anything in the world he can't pretty well fix./ or at least not want to fix anymore.
mircea_popescu: (pro tip : the odds of left handed kid born in a house where live two adult males, the one which isn't you being also left handed, being yours are perhaps under 0.1%)
a111: Logged on 2019-01-31 00:46 mircea_popescu: Jan 30 18:30:38 <mircea_popescu> and since i mentioned vice-versa again, some #haremleaks : hanbot asked me if i think the only reason anstey made paul a widower was so he didn't have to confront his son fucking his wife during that week.
mircea_popescu: a suspicious nature's no help against lardner. he's two steps ahead of all suspicion in his tower of shenanigan.
mircea_popescu: only to discover that a) it's not fucking possible she got pregnant and ready to deliver in a single season and then b) actually count the months and discover a woman he married 2nd day after meeting mid-oct is delivering him allan's baby mid june ?
mircea_popescu: professionally, for a living, for thirty years.
BingoBoingo: Then there's the saintly manner Gleason takes Jack and reshapes him into a rounded player without Jack even noticing
mircea_popescu: t I ain't afraid of no pitcher and what is more if you get me a couple of runs I'll beat him."
BingoBoingo: 40 bucks a month furnished city flat, and the bitch had the audacity to REFURNISH!
mircea_popescu: 10 bucks a month rural rents.
mircea_popescu: there is a deep an' fundamental reason "the narrative" in that sad shithole consists entirely of and exists entirely as commerciam communication aka advertising copy ; and there is a deep and fundamental reason social relations ~do not exist~ among americans outside of commercial relations.
a111: Logged on 2018-05-22 05:11 mircea_popescu: this paradigm readily explains the soviet state - "rock and roll" relationship, and moreover that historical accident had a lot to do with why alphabet even ~exists~ today. otherwise, on the naked strength of imaginary "advertising revenue" google is worth ~dozen stackexchanges/slashdots/sourceforges. but, generals always fight last year's war, and so here we are, "bayesian lesswisdom".
mircea_popescu: now, the question is -- why did sovok leadership not simply gift the population a buncha copies of this book ?
mircea_popescu: i will actually say on the record that i currently believe jack keefe to be the representative american, in this exact sense : if all americans were to be defined by delta from a single point, he's the point which, if chosen, affords the smallest total sum of deltas.
mircea_popescu: THEN sixty pages later it becomes obvious it's just her , "do it the right way" "which way is the right way ?" "the one that works out to what i want" "but this is after the fact" "i am a christian!!!"
mircea_popescu: l have to stand it and I guess I won't starv to death for no $10 a month because I am going to get $2800 next year besides the city serious money and maybe we will get into the World Serious too. I know we will if Callahan will pitch me every 3d day like I wanted him to last season. But if you had of approached the old man in a different way maybe you could of fixed it up. I wish you would try it again Al if it is not no trou
mircea_popescu: "I don't think the old man give me no square deal on that lease but if he wants to stick me all right. I am grateful to you Al for trying to fix it up but maybe you could of did better if you had of went at it in a different way. I am not finding no fault with my old pal though. Don't think that. When I have a pal I am the man to stick to him threw thick and thin. If the old man is going to hold me to that lease I guess I wil
BingoBoingo: Leads to: "Then he says I am not sure you are going to get anything. I says What do you mean? And he says I have gave you a very fare contract and if you don't want to live up to it that is your own business."
BingoBoingo: "She says Well if you will go and talk the right way to Comiskey I believe he will give you $3000 but you must be sure you go at it the right way and don't go and ball it all up. Well we argude about it a while because I don't want to hold nobody up Al but finally I says I would. It would not be holding nobody up anyway because I am worth $3000 to the club if I am worth a nichol."
mircea_popescu: o, right, right. the difference between him and 10`000 'ard cunts in the sad isles that night was that he's the one the chick decided to give a run for his money (which he got to keep most of).
asciilifeform: recall, there was a whine circus re subj couplayrs ago
asciilifeform: sometimes the ball goes into a hole and sits.
mircea_popescu: that's what's said there, yes ? that a) this thing is b) ad idem continuator of c) thing that explored space of possibilities ALREADY.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo a right6 you are huh! 2019-2014 = 4 unless you're late enough in the year.
mircea_popescu: the space of possibilities is well explored by now, the wrench exists for a fucking reason, it's not some arbitrary thing
asciilifeform: http://www.nosuchlabs.com/pub/liquishit/tdog.flv << posted strictly for thread-completeness, i agree with mircea_popescu re it being largely a snoar
asciilifeform: diana_coman: it's on a mitsumi gold cd thing, i'ma excavate it tomorrow morning ☟︎
asciilifeform: diana_coman: lemme know if you want moar warez from that period, i have a hand-curated collection
diana_coman: in other side quests, I got good ol' Supaplex next to http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-25#1829520 ; and a whole batch of old stuff while at it, all running nicely on a dosbox ☝︎
asciilifeform: decodes, plays, a++
mircea_popescu: diff guy did a coupla years first, before being sucked into the evercunt manifold.
diana_coman: trinque, it's possibly best to run your latest script and then hand over everything you need, fresh and clear? not a big issue otherwise to rummage and pack that dir but I don't even recall if I did not touch it further after that point when I sent the genesis patch so I'd rather not introduce artefacts ☟︎
mircea_popescu: hanbot pick a laptop, bake the man's cuntoo. (principal issue, that gentoo->cuntoo "bridge", see if his sig matches). ☟︎☟︎☟︎
trinque: diana_coman: might I get a tarball of your cuntoo build directory's present state? ☟︎
diana_coman: ah, he pressed to next (aka last) node; possibly that makes a diff, hm
mircea_popescu: not saying that necessarily accounts for the difference. but it is a fact.
trinque: this would be expected if the bootstrap compiler requires a host glibc.
ave1: the whole thing in the end is static, but yes maybe still relies on a specific gcc lib in there
trinque: building it on cuntoo might be a good test of your script's isolation. possible it relies on something from the host.
trinque: ave1: built with itself, but ever on a system without glibc?
mircea_popescu: i got 4.1.16 ; it'd be a wonder if anyone still has a 3 anywhere, or for that matter if there;'s some subtle symlink treatment difference between them, but...
trinque: worth underscoring that I built from a cuntoo
trinque: asciilifeform: the diff there contains only path weird, and I hazard a guess there's a difference in vdiff behavior. I used a vdiff pressed down to vtools_tempfile_standalone_notmp
trinque: please read the script and ask a specific question
trinque: the build script produces a genesis.vpatch which encompasses the cuntoo portage tree.
trinque: divergence is entirely within the profile dir, no ebuild differences, so that's a very encouraging result
asciilifeform: for ffa , the only os knobs you need are 1) a means for getting commandline string 2) equiv. of putchar 3) equiv. of getchar 4) a means to read bytes from a FG .
asciilifeform: re ffa in particular, if yer testing on something truly exotic (in re not having a posix layer) you will have to change a coupla lines in os.adb where i/o happens
asciilifeform: incidentally i expect that results from 'does ffa build' carry over to errybody who is currently using a ffa-derived gpr config ( this includes diana_coman , iirc , and possibly phf )
asciilifeform: incidentally, even old-fashioned barbaric adacorpse gnat was well-behaved re '-static' flag -- there's an os that dun even support static link (crapple) and it will properly barf there, rather than silently build dynamic ( incidentally can still build a runnable ffa there, fwiw, in debug mode -- see readme.txt )
a111: Logged on 2019-02-03 01:24 mircea_popescu: whether it actually ~is~ static in any dependable sense across platforms etc, still somewhat of a matter under investigation, fwiu ?\
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-03#1891970 << afaik built to date on 2 platforms total ( if anyone did a 3rd, not yet reported in the l0gz ) -- x64 and arm64. both replicated in asciilifeform's torture room, the former in regular use . thing builds strictly static+musltronic bins, it aint even knob-adjustable (which is as it oughta be imho) . ☝︎
mircea_popescu: quite. if there is any writing that has a shot at that "great american novel title", it'd be l.
mircea_popescu: whether it actually ~is~ static in any dependable sense across platforms etc, still somewhat of a matter under investigation, fwiu ?\ ☟︎
trinque: and while I'm flailing and torching afternoons trying to get a vtools sat down on my cuntoo buildbox, if anyone can point me to instructions on getting gprbuild to cough up a static binary, I'd be much obliged
mircea_popescu: a well, uploaded it to trilema (should be visible at http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/thailand-crown-prince-dog-birthday.flv ) but for some reason 404s that i'm not going to be arsed to debug.
asciilifeform: let's have it for thread-compleetness ( i'll even revv up a box with sound & watch )
mircea_popescu: there was a video included, which is why we discuss the panties-on-topless wife rather than quotes from whatever anglotard.
mircea_popescu: doesn't it strike ytou as way the fuck easier to lop some bits of fabric off a hip, than some heads off ?
mircea_popescu: same exact fucking reason i think very little of the shah of brunei. thre's a word for the man who can't keep his household in line, and that word is "boy"
a111: Logged on 2016-08-02 16:13 mircea_popescu: phf allow me to quote to you from modern tolkien : "The heir apparent, Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn, is poorly regarded in Thailand and the succession has clouded the brows of not only the Thai political elite, but the Thai people, who believe a period of substantial instability will follow the King's death"
mircea_popescu: you mean the idle schmuck that had a topless wife for an occasion once and they all threw a ridoinculous fit ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: you can visit oxford today ; it stands with ye olde habsburg court in a situation of pure equivalency, and with abandoned seashells just as much.
asciilifeform: ( as if ~any~ db belonging to a usg.corp were or could be anyffin other than a usg.db )
a111: Logged on 2019-01-30 01:02 asciilifeform: 'ru-ar' d00d described 'month -- euphoria, then reality sets in when so happens you want a faucet fixed, or tooth capped, or to buy power brick for lappy' etc
mircea_popescu: (this is engineered to count as an insult, because supposedly, or at least by the lights of deeply inept femtards a la virgina woolfe, this guy "hated women" because wasn't sufficiently something or the other ; and so proposing that women'd benefit off his book is like, totally, oh noes.)
mircea_popescu: of the latter, same fond of idiocy offers a restatement of an gallingly anonymous "If the reader is not particular about grammar and style, and is judiciously suspicious of dates, he, or more likely she, will derive both amusement and profit from Mr Browning's pages"
mircea_popescu: of the former, wikipedia says "He took much interest in sport at Eton, and the high standard of rowing which the Eton eights attained was due in a large measure to his coaching. His 45 years' connexion with Eton thoroughly identified him with its traditions and ideals, and, without being remarkable either as a scholar or as a teacher, he wielded a personal influence which has seldom been surpassed. "
mircea_popescu: edmond warre (a man of absolutely no accomplishment, either intellectual or social, but merely an avid ~rowsman~, am activity the deeply ~coerced~ atmosphere at oxford "respected", much in the way sovoks "respected" marx) met pesonally (and sacked) oscar browning (a man of arguably the greatest intellectual, scholarly, and undoubtedly social accomplishment oxford of his time -- and perhaps in all time ever -- knew).
a111: Logged on 2019-02-02 18:23 asciilifeform: let's hear about the excluded counters ? e.g. is there a dynasty still going somewhere for 1000y that never enhabsburgated into idiocy ?
mircea_popescu: speaking of http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-02#1891694 : consider the history of oxford (a place that claims continuity, however ludicrous on the face that claim may be), pre [the latest iteration of] http://trilema.com/2018/wood-impregnated-in-oil-a-metaphor/ ☝︎
trinque: asciilifeform: looks like ave1's script will bootstrap for you with a downloaded gnat, but the downloaded gnat wants to live on a glibc system. happily building on such.
asciilifeform: ^ there are registers, and exactly 20 of'em, cuz that's how many lowercase letters there are that aint a-f.
asciilifeform: !A .1 $z z#
asciilifeform: !A .1 $g g#
asciilifeform: !A .1 $f
asciilifeform: if you ever end up putting it on a cray, you change the constant knob & rebuild, is all
mircea_popescu: the whole point being, that if you use threading properly, which is to say -- to implement workers which eat from a queue -- then you will ahve to ~somehow count therm~. that count can be either static or dynamic, and it seems the case that dynamic count's a losing proposition.
asciilifeform: seems reasonable to pick a constant.
trinque will give that a shot
trinque: ave1: ever tried building gnat on a cuntoo? I'm unable, fails with http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/RzU1U/?raw=true
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> if you redefine all words to mean simply "i love you", you will "live" in the most loving world imaginable. << 2019 is shaping up to be A+++ year for logs
a111: Logged on 2018-12-20 15:46 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform on meditation, that piece makes it plainly evident redditardation is ~generational~, not ideological. there sit the russki kids, who'd be in a fine position to understand the problem. god knows they have much better access to much better priors that readily illuminate it.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, this a-b dispute is the exact substance of distinctions like http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-11#1879651 ; but that was then, by now... http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-20#1882391 ☝︎☝︎
mircea_popescu: confronted with the unfatomable depths of male diversity (as promised to be unfathomable by http://trilema.com/2017/the-boundless-burden/#selection-195.0-195.18 ), the female herd (and it is always a herd) has precisely two possible avenues open to it : either a) http://trilema.com/2013/whore-strat/ or else b) http://trilema.com/2016/brexit-grexit-departugal-italeave-czechout-finish-oustria-latervia-byegium/#footnote_2_67054
