fluffypony: you can just have
a cronjob that does something like
trinque: I guess depending on the cron jobber; there are quite
a few of them
mod6: heh, i built valgrind on deb6 lastnight as well. didn't work with bitcoind either statically built, or dynamically. might have to give this
a try tonight on the gentoo aws instance.
ascii_field: cpp is really
a 'crime against nature' to the extent that nothing really can process the barf it produces
ascii_field: not really related except in the sense that the hose in
a mortician's workshop is related to surgeon's endoscope
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: the 'cleaner' in question was
a util that is meant to clean up the explosion of blood and guts which results in perl upgrading on
a gentoo box
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: cpp doesn't exist, to
a first approximation, on
a well-maintained unix box
ascii_field: 'Why is Perl so F***ing special that it gets its own utility for un-f***ing it every time I need to update my system? Why does gentoo use perl at all for anything? In my sight its
a disgusting useless barnacle of
a write only language and this dependency stuff just makes me not want to touch it, ever, if I did suffer from temporary dementia and considered using it in one of my projects. We don't need
a python-cleaner or
mircea_popescu: and then supplying
a ready stable of eager sluts to get the ball started
ben_vulpes: 'tisn't so much school, ascii_field, as
a hedge against further retardifying the spawn
ben_vulpes: eh give him
a break - the canuks get all their ideas from their southern protector
mircea_popescu: kids can opt whether to die young and leave
a beautiful corpse much before any serious effort was spent on them
mircea_popescu: the only half decent approximation of
a test would be, "either you go to school where each day for
a year contains
a beating, or else we kill you in six years".
mircea_popescu: why not is not
a permissible question in this context.
mircea_popescu: what if they go back to school with
a chip on their shoulder
mircea_popescu: romans had forbidden slaves (ie, teachers, more broadly, bureaucrats) beating their kids as
a cornerstone of civility.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes more importantly : why would you as
a kid take
a beating from someone you're not
a in
a sexual relationship with
ben_vulpes: i also suspect that the initial stable of teachers will actually be the parents. nobody else is going to give
a shit and la serenissima runs on deficits anyways.
ascii_field: they would hold their circlejerk meetings and literally pause 'waiting for
a female voice'
ben_vulpes: might be able to acquire
a tower or something with an i5 to play eulora
ben_vulpes: went to get
a garbagebox from freegeek.org yesterday - "tuesday through saturday"
pete_dushenski: i would've bet
a buck they'd have packed up and given up on their "komoonity centre" thing
pete_dushenski: "Sex-Kitten.Net has been around nearly
a decade, in one form or another. It was begun by me, Gracie Passette, as
a place for women, by women, about women ~ not only to discuss sex, but certainly not avoiding it."
punkman: I shut down the monitors and went for
a walk after 10-15min, so it was mostly just idle computar
punkman: new ups lasted
a whole hour, impressed
ben_vulpes: <nubbins`> but anyway. maybe i'll get
a chance to compile eulora on osx by sunday << if you figure out how lmk, i failed to do so miserably
nubbins`: but anyway. maybe i'll get
a chance to compile eulora on osx by sunday
nubbins`: next thing ya know
a fan spins up and BAM
mircea_popescu: anyway, you missed out
a 1337 satoshi/day permabag by not coming to sunday's event.
nubbins`: i've got
a vague idea. why else would i take
a 25btc stock warrant? ;p
nubbins`: mircea_popescu i've had
a statically built bitcoind for months now
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you know, in all that story
a release is required.
nubbins`: did anyone ever muck about w/
a buildroot toolchain after?
mircea_popescu: (the incidence of depression among idiots being for this reason the most amusing thing of all! seriously, YOU'RE depressed ? you don't even have enough of
a fucking clue to be sad.)
nubbins`: prolly
a combination of poor memory and drug use
mircea_popescu: inertial mass is, much like the "centrifugal force",
a matter of observer observing
mircea_popescu: there ~IS~
a reason they switched from trying that to trying gavincoin last year.
nubbins`: imagine passing off some of this strange to

a laser printer is closer to
a lithograph than anything else

a printer ?
nubbins`: and you should print with your printer at least once
a week to keep them from drying out
mircea_popescu: the toner granularities thing is
a fine example of biology in business.
nubbins`: ^ the old man who runs this company is
a wizard
nubbins`: protip: if you can't service your printer yourself, buy
a new one when it breaks
nubbins`: also worth noting that
a replacement print head was 50% the cost of
a new printer
nubbins`: so i bought
a replacement printer 30 minutes before i fixed the thing
nubbins`: funny thing is, i figured it was
a lost cause
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: That is
a serious problem with thermal. Twas
a pain lighting the losing tickets friday night.
nubbins`: asciilifeform this is still
a major use of dot matrix printers
mircea_popescu: yeah, because that's the monkey logic, "shit, this guy makes it so that i have
a job!!1"
nubbins`: go ahead and try to delete
a line from my log
nubbins`: is this
a serial we're talking about?
gribble: Error: "tells" is not
a valid command.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` you know i left you
a ding in the logs while back, you ever got it ?
mircea_popescu: "if it can't sync it can't really be used seriously" makes
a whole lotta sense.
BingoBoingo: Can
a bag of FETs make one that's run bitcoind fast?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo the reason they're 100 bucks
a pop is ~ that nobody wants em

a foundry so we can make them fast?
