BingoBoingo: If you have ate a purple tomato you know what I mean. If you ate a SOLID purple tomato... that is a lot of dye... are you still pissing blue?
BingoBoingo: This isn't the pisspot story. Cocaine has some virtues. I dunno that weed can be anything other than Pol Pot shit
BingoBoingo: Not really, they made a piss poor showing at their own expo cannabis unmanning their own domestic seed bank booths. Current sample which exceeds disability I am inclined to share with datacenter is "Auto Blue Ace CBD" by "Delicious Seeds"
BingoBoingo: Tonight I am tempted to burn them all for fucking my already abysmal dyslexiatech spell algorithms
BingoBoingo: The mission, as I see it, is to find an antidote. The high times promises this antidote is a partial agonist they call CBD>
BingoBoingo: This is Uruguay, I am surrounded by retards who do indoor tends while posessing perfectly good baclonies with sun exposure.

nicoleci: i feel like hed appreciate this, and asciilifeform of course
BingoBoingo: I am not comfortable being outside of a leisurley walk to the Pizarro Rack without coverage.
BingoBoingo: WoT is a thing. I have my doubts asciilifeform will find this tangent without quality as I took him to the Tres Cruses national bus terminal and shopping for ice cream and shade en route to the store that sells cables.
mircea_popescu: i have nfi what you two are on about, by and large.

nicoleci: BingoBoingo, ahh I see and this was in Illinois? steel is our defunct industry
nicoleci: i can see it re the republic!
nicoleci: BingoBoingo, hahaha! i hope you get to met your hero shaggy2dope one day
BingoBoingo: nicoleci: I suspect the Republic's biggest audience historically has been of midwestern upbringing for the acuteness of what pantsuit stole being felt.
nicoleci: BingoBoingo, lmao i refused to go but of course. then you head to the county fair!
BingoBoingo: Ok, I wonder why the locals here don't take the water quality remedy back home and use solar power to stir and oxygenate the water near the beach to prevent fishkills

trinque: damn, I score 90% goth
BingoBoingo: The highest standards I encountered were at SIU, but what they wanted was the most retarded. Mizzou was in the middle as far as being in the middle of retardedness of desired spew and volume. McK was at the bottom for lack of discernable standards.
mircea_popescu: i'm sorry. TEXTBOOKS practically http://gothtypes.wikia.com/wiki/Emo_Goth one and all. exams -- https://www.gotoquiz.com/scemo_emo_goth_or_just_a_poser
BingoBoingo: Mizzou surrendered any pretense it has to Univeristy in the name of sportsball, let accredidation in what I went there to degree in lapse, but...
BingoBoingo: McKendree went on a Bond Binge 2 years after I left, still binging. i suspect the landing will suck.
BingoBoingo: I asked!
BingoBoingo: It gets shittier. I only read Lardner this past weekend. None of my three "academic advisers" read lardner.
BingoBoingo: trinque: From what I see in Texas you at least had targets.
trinque: and what I've got for him isn't death, but "maybe we get a shot after enough webshits"
BingoBoingo: I haven't licked a working field phone
trinque: BingoBoingo: isn't as though I don't appreciate the "subject me to something why don't you!!!" urge. was discussing this earlier in the shop.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i dunno if you realise this, but condom is quite permeable.
trinque: BingoBoingo: did I read this correctly in re: experimenting with torturing each other?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: All I can say is I haven't spoken with 6 of 8 in a decade, 7 of 8 in 3 years
BingoBoingo: trinque: I've chopped peppers as well. The difference is concentration. Goes back to the cannabis threads.
trinque: ah I've chopped peppers then got dick out. isn't so bad
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i recall, when 1st saw mention of 'waterboarding', didn't grasp what the item behind the limba de lemn was, thought 'ah, like snowboarding, but on water, that thing they do where board rides on wave' , initially was confused
a111: Logged on 2019-02-09 01:18 Mocky: my new slave galley issued me a mac book pro. ugh, i thought i was going to make it to the grave without having to mac
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I recall at some time before the Uruguay adventure suggesting southern illinois as a lower cost basis sticks
Mocky: trinque: I approach it by engaging them in conversation only
trinque: I am almost never in the market for the advertised wares.
Mocky: in other news, I got my first ru spam blog comment разработка сайтов
mircea_popescu: i recall now.
mircea_popescu: oh oh oh that's what he was, larping about something or the other, i ended up making money on an investment in it.
BingoBoingo: I dunno if he even has the voice for radio.
BingoBoingo: Made an alt-coin "Wood Coin" chopped rather than mined. I confuse him in my head with Framedragger
a111: Logged on 2019-02-08 22:50 asciilifeform: i didnt see much worth buying in BingoBoingostan.. or was mircea_popescu speaking of his locale
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-08#1893916 << i ended up clicking bb's linkbait, there's this funkenstain dood which sounds familiar. ☝︎
Mocky: BingoBoingo: ah yes, i remember reading as much in the logs
mircea_popescu: i knew a guy took a pay cut to go tech support a call center.
Mocky: my new slave galley issued me a mac book pro. ugh, i thought i was going to make it to the grave without having to mac ☟︎
Mocky: i haven't had to go into the office every day for 10 years. takes some getting used to
Mocky: *now that I'm back to work
Mocky: got a handful more to grunt out. not that I'm back to work I have free time again
BingoBoingo: I can say these are more shoe than any other shoes I have had before. On the other hand I not have experience with the shoes that set you bar for "shoes"
asciilifeform: these look solid. tho i fuckinghate laces.
BingoBoingo: Well, "Redwing 606" hasn't rotted yet, but I haven't been wearing them much this summer either. Also not fur lined.
asciilifeform: sometimes i think half of the mud in the world, lives right here in swampistan
asciilifeform: ( and will look for'em when i finally get the chance )
asciilifeform: i admit i have some difficulty picturing proper, winter-capable fur-lined boots sold in cr, but if mircea_popescu says he saw this, i will believe
asciilifeform: i didnt see much worth buying in BingoBoingostan.. or was mircea_popescu speaking of his locale ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2018-01-11 15:50 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i suspect that decent shoes are somehow illegal in usa. they are ~entirely unavailable in any shop i've ever walked into there.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-26 13:27 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-26#1729160 << for perhaps first time in life i have real shoes nao
a111: Logged on 2018-12-21 22:24 asciilifeform walks on just this side of the razor's edge of 'fucking, i'ma make own shoes'
asciilifeform: in other noose, asciilifeform walks ever closer to http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-21#1882654 , the ro item http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-26#1729202 turned out to contain an exact 1x2cm ~purpose-made cavity~ in each heel, and they wore through simultaneously . i.e. obsolescence bomb. ☝︎☝︎
mircea_popescu: pity it's missing, too, because i know of scarcely better word to denote us corp drone besides ro tîmpiți.
mircea_popescu: yeah, i suspect might be it.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, I found only this one http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/Iitk3/?raw=true although I remember a better one ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i suppose the dead endness of dead ends is ~always~ going to be sitting on a pyramid tho. "how do you know this can't be" very different from "here, try it, it works"
a111: Logged on 2019-01-04 17:18 mircea_popescu: why the fuck didn't i think of that.
mircea_popescu: i confess i like it, as expression, but it also grates me. deeper understanding is not generally "more advanced" in the sense of, "sits atop larger pyramid", but generally in the sense of http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-04#1884426 ☝︎
asciilifeform: wish i could dredge up the orig. but from memory it had a 'resists formalization' definitely
asciilifeform: ( i dun recall whether was on trilema, or older, elsewhere )
asciilifeform: oh neato, ty, i'll eat
mircea_popescu: ie, athlete/lottery winner being convinced by entourage that "he has something to say" in the http://trilema.com/2018/yes-bitch-i-would-bring-it/ vein of world-establishing saying,
a111: Logged on 2019-02-08 18:39 mircea_popescu: actually, thinking about it : there was a hysterical poster of 1990s vintage, produced of romanians mocking the blown away reaction of ameritards on contact with romanian workplace mat. because yes, in ro the way to discuss the boss among workers is "that cocksucker", and the customers are very much "those insufferable morons" and so following. but in usg, the manner to address systematic problems is trhough minutia, and so i
mircea_popescu: (i know it sounds ridoinculous, but obscure starlet took job to do some show or other in ro and as a result ended up hounded by ~all males, including the "finance minister" (a "technocratic expert" bla bla etcetera), the star soccer player, the star tennis player / chief bisnitar etc.
mircea_popescu: sadly i can't seem to locate it anymore. the things you end up missing ;/

asciilifeform: ideally you wouldn't even i/o from a worker thread, imho, only main prog would i/o.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-08#1893807 << the 1 concern there is blocking unix i/o calls, these can potentially wedge ( if not wrapped with appropriate timeout ) ☝︎
asciilifeform: i admit i did not exhaustively peek in each
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-08#1893803 << i was reading this and waiting for the inevitable 'and then one day elbow' but apparently nodice ☝︎
asciilifeform: i.e. even ~there~ you dun have the desired 'thread could have been doing anyffin at all, but can cleanly async-term it' .
a111: Logged on 2018-07-31 16:15 asciilifeform: unix i/o is retarded, if blocking read blocks, it gives you a zombie process , and the next process you start that tried to read same tty, will also become zombie
diana_coman: but the whole thing here was more about what completing the job means - which so far is not defined and at any rate it's defined with the Job, not with the worker as it were; anyway, I stumbled on this just as part of usual "poke new things around in all directions"
diana_coman: and to clarify just in case there was any doubt: NO, workers are not meant to loop for ever or any such nonsense; BUT I still can't assume that can not happen!
diana_coman: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-08#1893756 -> this makes in fact a lot of sense esp given asciilifeform's observation that indeed, that's an unrecoverable error state; so this sounds good: if child task doesn't die when aborted then kill self (taking the task with self too ofc); I'll experiment with this but afaik so far it should work ☝︎☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: and i said "why would you buy these small shits, they don't even have a reset button"
mircea_popescu still recalls discussion in the heart of what later became one of romania's largest isps, when sold to i udn recall who : five dudes each with large-ish ad hoc networks (i suspect you recall those) were talking about pooling, and they needed what in the civilised world is a peering noc, and it was discussed what items to buy
