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
mircea_popescu: http://www.mateirosca.com/prose/the-medianett-saga-adventures-in-mercenary-churnalism/ << and here's a (very naive) story from the agitprop mines
mircea_popescu: http://cryptome.org/2015/06/guccifer-letter-01.htm << fwiw, the style of that production is exactly the "pov derpage" fashionable among the unemployed writers/table waiters of the day, whereas linguistic profile radically unbefitting a 40yo unemployed cab driver in bucharest

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
mircea_popescu: got worried for a minute there
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: cpp doesn't exist, to a first approximation, on a well-maintained unix box
mircea_popescu: we don't need a c++ cleanner ?
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.
ben_vulpes: not a bad outcome.
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
mircea_popescu: "which will forthwith change as a result"
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.
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: let's start a school
danielpbarron: saw their human megaphone a.k.a. cultish chanting
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: http://imgur.com/a/SKPmk << amazing the dedication of these kidz.
pete_dushenski: some spamsite via a contravex commenter.
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
asciilifeform actually considered buying a box on which eulora is playable
mircea_popescu: and it is a correct solution.
asciilifeform: and bitcoind will have to be given either a) own external ip, in config or b) ip of irc net to connect to
asciilifeform: nubbins`: there is a fallback in there - irc
asciilifeform: and a few other invocations
asciilifeform: i have a months-old patch on the ml, which got lost among the nuts and bolts, that nukes dns seeds
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.
asciilifeform: nubbins`: but now we need a fully uclibc-ized bitcoind
mircea_popescu: they actually have a right to it.
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: think about a world where interaction were undelayed.
mircea_popescu: there ~IS~ a reason they switched from trying that to trying gavincoin last year.
asciilifeform: speaking of counterfeiters, i once read a fascinating bio paper where folks determined the actual cause of death of 'drink molten lead'
nubbins`: imagine passing off some of this strange to a cashier, and while you're waiting for your food, guy behind you in line receives some as change
nubbins`: SWIM hypothetically did this in their youth for a while
nubbins`: those have a life?!
asciilifeform: a kind of conveyor, page-width, made from unobtainium
asciilifeform like a fool, picked up a surplus colour laser printer a couplea weeks ago. twentybux or so
nubbins`: ^ for a 6-tank printer like mine
nubbins`: a laser printer is closer to a lithograph than anything else
nubbins`: mircea_popescu depends on the type of printer. in an inkjet it's a printhead
mircea_popescu: how do you call the "part which does the printing" in a printer ?
nubbins`: and you should print with your printer at least once a week to keep them from drying out
asciilifeform: it is picked up by a rubber roller and deposited on selenium drum electrostatically
mircea_popescu: the toner granularities thing is a fine example of biology in business.
asciilifeform: but eventually learned 1) toner comes in various granularities 2) is a real bitch to clean up, on account of 3) goes straight through a vacuum cleaner
nubbins`: ^ the old man who runs this company is a wizard
asciilifeform: nubbins`: was this that same printer where you ran a hose into the ink tank instead of swapping out cartridges ?
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
asciilifeform: ^ a little different from what i remembered
assbot: xkcd: A-Minus-Minus ... ( http://bit.ly/1JBUBb0 )
asciilifeform: 'instead of printer, package contained bobcat. a++, would buy again' (tm)
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
nubbins`: try this a couple more times.
mircea_popescu: yeah, because that's the monkey logic, "shit, this guy makes it so that i have a job!!1"
BingoBoingo: Or a zippo
nubbins`: go ahead and try to delete a line from my log
asciilifeform: 'Good luck with that buckeroo. Looking forward to your complete rewrite of the Broadcom NetXtreme II 10/100/Gigabit firmware, by the way. There are about 25 versions of this product, and they have 4-6 MIPS 64-bit cpus running different firmwares on them. Total size, around 260K. It's like a bunch of independent operating systems running on propriety hardware!' << this is endemic and getting worse by the minute
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 ?
asciilifeform: me, i just want something that'd sign a tx, while using no iron made after i was born
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?
asciilifeform: in that if you were to wish for a crate of 10,000 in one pop, there would be supply problems.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: actually there are plenty of folks who want. but they go to 'ebay' or 1,001 other places where they're a buck or so
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: buy a bag of 5,000 FETs. that there's yer phoundry.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo the reason they're 100 bucks a pop is ~ that nobody wants em
BingoBoingo: I am interested nao. How long until we get a foundry so we can make them fast?
asciilifeform: afaik there was never a compiler for it (you could trivially port sdcc etc. but... why)
