mircea_popescu: or to quote a purple prose producer of recent fame in my household, "Her silky smooth butt-crack was flawless, the only interruption along the length of it, was her pink, rosy butt-hole. Underneath her crack, were her fluffy, velvety beef curtains, just looking so, so scrumptious."
mircea_popescu: so, so perfect.
mircea_popescu: http://www.xenosystems.net/chaos-patch-99/ << this guy is fucking epic lol. "go is gone. Yudkowsky sounds the alarm." and links a fb posting. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: can has container.
mircea_popescu: just, if you want to add a patch, should be able to dump it as dpaste also. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: nah.
mircea_popescu: and thinking about it on the way from bed to machine, because this idea woke me up : it seems deedbot and the ml management really should be merged. any conceivable reason patches can't be submitted via deedbot's mechanism ? not necessarily to remove the email feeding, but as an add-on ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: ideally the result of a click should be a page including at least a) an enumerations of all the keys required to get there ; b) a script that will press to that particular height.
mircea_popescu: hey trinque jurov phf : would it be possible to take that very nice graph phf showed, turn it into a proper svg and have the nodes clickable ?
mircea_popescu does the leyla black with new girls to this very day.
mircea_popescu: not really her retarded totemcash/loadedcash/twistys idiotic stuff. but she did some ok outdoor work back in the day.
mircea_popescu: in other news of similar weight and importance, leyla black was kinda hot a decade ago.
mircea_popescu: the consensus among kim kardashian, zsa zsa gabor, hussein bahamas and that guy from cheers is that a kilogram of feathers really should be lighter than a kilogram of derp entrails.
mircea_popescu: dude who the fuck are kevin spacey and jimbo wales already.
mircea_popescu: i dun see anyone getting negrated through communicating sanely.
mircea_popescu: yeah well.
mircea_popescu: yeah, pcengines could alternatively get in the wot.
mircea_popescu: is this what fat people think sports are ?
mircea_popescu: if it computes it belongs in a dc. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i have no idea why anyone'd keep locally a box they don't actually use to play games on, but hey.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo server graphics ?
mircea_popescu: i'd definitely add him to the top of the list of providers for colocation.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, this would be a pretty interesting sideline/possible job for someone dedicated. sell pre-made, fully liberated board+chip kits. for to go intos ervers etc. ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: that's a pretty sweet board. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: wait shouldn't shiva 2 be restated instead ?
mircea_popescu: copypaste http://trilema.com/2016/alright-i-give-up/
mircea_popescu: :)
mircea_popescu: or however you say that in english.
mircea_popescu: "let one stick suffice per cartload of china"
mircea_popescu: im pretty sure he gets it.
mircea_popescu: we weren't smart back then.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and polarbeard would much prefer large patches. you don't get what you prefer.
mircea_popescu: also crucially evident why patches must be thematic.
mircea_popescu: this is a good thing.
mircea_popescu: everyone has to rebase and so will hate you if you make them do it.
mircea_popescu: mod6 incidentally found the correct way to undo things.
mircea_popescu: well yeah.
mircea_popescu: i dunno exactly why it was decided to have it in, but now it's in, so...
mircea_popescu: meh, how about fixing things rather than putting in and taking out.
mircea_popescu: if they gotta drone it tho, it gets a lot worse.
mircea_popescu: i think that's undefined, in the general. in the narrow particular, iirc blackwater charges something like 1.2-1.5. depends on various factors, but thereabouts.
mircea_popescu: tmsr really is what usg aspires to be, funnily enough.
mircea_popescu: AND, to add to the list of wonders, all that growth is financed purely through unbacked deficit spending!
mircea_popescu: per-capita* i mean
mircea_popescu: iirc the per-capital costs are in the 700-750k bracket pa.
mircea_popescu: admitting you're worth what sv pays for top talent, comes to about 60k or so.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski mod6 i never used server thing myself.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron yeah but he wouldn't be familiar with that.
mircea_popescu: commonly usd, seeing how gdp is a usd thing.
mircea_popescu: any currency of your choice.
mircea_popescu: if you produce a mythical man-month's code for trb, that adds the accounting value of a man-month to the tmsr gdp whether you mean for it to or not.
mircea_popescu: apply common accounting standards to the work done, see what it adds up to.
mircea_popescu: to which part ?
mircea_popescu: so... glhf, but never in the history of sovereigns has there been such a wonder etc.
mircea_popescu: and by the looks of january, Q1 2016 might actually beat that.
mircea_popescu: <pete_dushenski> mircea_popescu: it's sorta incredible that the fiatists who need infinite growth all want to cut their own throats with reduced consumption while tmsr~, who doesn't want anything to do with infinite growth, is buying and consuming like it's going out of style << actually, best estimate i can get puts TMSR GDP growth for 2015 somewhere around 450-500%. that's not 4.5-5%. it's not 45-50% either. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: assbot> Networking Equipment Designated Weapon System | << speaking of which, i fully expect the first usg-designed bitcoin miners to be designated exactly that.
mircea_popescu: so, as they quite aptly say, it's a no brainer.
mircea_popescu: you get about 1 to 5% less mileage per barrel in the 2nd approach, as should be obvious. you neverthelss get 5x the "jobs" and 20 to 50x the imaginary industrial assets.
mircea_popescu: anyway. in no sense is ethanol LESS fuel intensive than gasoline. the alternatives are oil->refinery->gasoline for gasoline, or oil->refinery->chem feed->chem plant->fertilizer->farm->corn->ethanol plant->ethanol.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski> so unless bitbet is now drafting and seeding their own proposals... << this isn't even new.
mircea_popescu: "The DC neglected to turn the thing back on after SSD installation" <<< o.O
mircea_popescu: assbot> California Environmentalists Fight To Save Endangered Nuclear Plant <<< had to dbl take. then lulz floweth
mircea_popescu: i know it's exciting and all. but, pace in all things.
mircea_popescu: going too fast here isn't gonna help anyone.
mircea_popescu: ascii_rear do some other work for a while.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller aha. this was discussed time and again in the very logs.
mircea_popescu: ascii_rear> can we at least have the option of loading from local dir instead of www ? <<< now that is a very good idea.
mircea_popescu: so in this sense mod6 it has my imprimatur that bothering to grok it isn't a waste of your finite time.
mircea_popescu: ascii_rear> but eventually we ought to be able to do spiffy things like writing my memory usage grapher ~entirely in shiva~, etc << quite. once this is fully functional debugging in trb can not be matched, period. by anyone, anywhere, doing anything.
mircea_popescu: also won't matter.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, speaking of config setups : 1. pick a list of TRB nodes ; 2. add to ifconfig, deny all others ; 3. plug eth cable, congrats, you now have a secure box. go ahead install all the toolbar spyware you care to, won't matter.
mircea_popescu: !v assbot:mircea_popescu.rate.gernika.1:0460d190229514ca15052ed9ecf853adc7340cd5620aca6d64495d00876c7a7a
mircea_popescu: !rate gernika 1 Managed to press 99996
mircea_popescu: !rated gernika
mircea_popescu: ascii_rear it's only scheduled if yo usay before we do :D
mircea_popescu: wd gernika
mircea_popescu: in an alt world, bitcoin blocks come once a day, are 737.280 MB in size, go around on CDs
mircea_popescu: and generally - for bringing internet water into teh deserts.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo sure.
mircea_popescu: ah ah nm me
mircea_popescu: it really should have a name, apparerntly i saved it variously as press.sh vconfig.sh etc
mircea_popescu: fuck i don't even know what anything's called.
mircea_popescu: mod6 what's the scriopt called ? the one that makes rotor.sh ?
mircea_popescu: the one that makes the rotor.
mircea_popescu: im pretty sure there's a hash in the script
mircea_popescu: even if it usually turns out to have been a stupid idea/whatever, still whining in here is the right way to approach teh knot.
mircea_popescu: no hint of sarcasm or anything.
mircea_popescu: whining in here is the right way.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes yeah. he also screams about how dumb usg is, hasn't yet moved away.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-01-2016#1390320 <<< it's a lot easier to pretend cds are the golden standard of archival while sitting on a flac collection safely kept on a rpm hdd. ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: not like if trb.buildroot pops up tomorrow i wouldn't at least consider it.
mircea_popescu: logcially, if you're not willing to import a guy's key, why the fuck are you pulling his code. write your own or w/e.
mircea_popescu: gpg --import not gnarly enough ?
mircea_popescu: and this gains us what ? more inconvenience ?
mircea_popescu: so the key gotta be in keyring. so ?
mircea_popescu: i honestly dun see what the problem is here. what is the problem here ?
mircea_popescu: for that matter you know, bdb is also a piece of shit. and openshitmypants and so on.
mircea_popescu: and the avenue to fix it is also well known. wget is open source. rebase.
mircea_popescu: it's a sore spot, but it's treated properly imo : quite clearly in the open.
