mircea_popescu: i find it particularly poetic that they should get raped with
a spiked club, incidentally.
ascii_panama: and no one has ever been turned down by
a lisp mach.
ascii_panama: but in the abstract - the notion that xxx might reliably have sex, vs
a specimen who won't, is
a 'selling point', yes
ascii_panama: this is
a work of spmodin, not meant to be understood by man
mircea_popescu: i have nfi what "well tempered" is supposed to mean, but perhaps resilient, which is in fact
a corner stone of feminity.
mircea_popescu: such is the nature of the beta male that "romantic" (aka, sexually dysfunctional) is
a selling point
mircea_popescu: "Hi. I want to be with
a man who wants to start
a strong relationship and who can care of his beloved woman. Are you independent and tender man? I would be happy to get know each other better! I am
a attractive and affectionate lady. I can add that I am well-tempered and romantic. "
ascii_panama: didn't remember to take
a pic of this idiocy, it was best i could do to avoid sleeping. for:
ascii_panama: and, interestingly, right next to
a normal mains socket
ascii_panama: and similarly, derpistans where
a working mains socket is unheard-of

a few moments.
mircea_popescu: jurov i'd be afraid to get married. "well son... your dad left for
a pack of ciggs back in 2012"
jurov: you know, it's that "quit
a job, forget everything instantly" kind of adults
BingoBoingo: ;;later tell pete_dushenski Maybe you can do
a scoopbot for your coding learning and to discover what makes contravex RSS so weird
trinque: I was eyeballing it as
a rest interface generator thinger before tripping over postgreset
ben_vulpes: "roughly 3000 BTC" << ascii_* now that's
a rocket
ben_vulpes: did briefly look into providing "how likely is this addr to doublespend" as
a service
joeblo: I'm trying to dev up to an API but there doesn't seem to be
a definite answer for this
mircea_popescu: i was like "but i want the cool rooms, like i had", guy was like "well i hope you don't have more than 8 people coming then, because we're not building
a patio"
ben_vulpes: all of
a sudden there is life in the thing
mircea_popescu: when not running varnish, hits > 2x pages. this makes
a difference because children.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes php has 0 to do with it. for one thing, it's compiled. for the other, it's apache that gets hammered, purely
a html problem.
mircea_popescu: i dun think you laymen understand what
a real blog is like.
trinque: mircea_popescu: I've yet to hit upon
a devops process I actually like. On gentoo at least it appears to be an emerge varnish; rc-update add varnish default; /etc/init.d/varnish start
ben_vulpes: * ascii_launchpad [00:04] just walked by
a 'women in tech' poster << in the airport?!
ben_vulpes: ascii_*, mircea_popescu: "hadoop" << thought y'all'd get
a kick out of that
mircea_popescu: fun fact : this is
a cover. the original was an 80s thing of some whales nobody remembers today.
mircea_popescu: considering the actual tx pressure is ~0 atm, blocks not even half full etc, he can prolly get away with just using btc for at least
a year.
trinque: liquidassets: I'm sure super-fast-buy-
a-starbux can be built atop bitcoin just fine
mircea_popescu: but if you got zero because women are fucktarded (because "men" are fucktarded boys) every ordinary anything looks like
a fucking pulsar colliding with
a supernova.
mircea_popescu: ascii_launchpad> because it is not physically possible to breed and teach needleworkers fast enough to keep up with
a complexity collapse. << it's not
a complexity collapse. i know how to manage this problem, i've done it before.
pete_dushenski: "Delvoye stated that everything in modern life is pointless. The most useless object he could create was
a machine that serves no purpose at all, besides the reduction of food to waste." << these intellectually poor artists and their purposes.
ascii_launchpad: because it is not physically possible to breed and teach needleworkers fast enough to keep up with
a complexity collapse.
assbot: USGavin’s headless body moves on, #bitcoin-assets moves up. | Contravex:
A blog by Pete Dushenski ... (
http://bit.ly/1zO4TMc )
ascii_launchpad: mircea_popescu: eventually folks will realize that it is -not-
a needlework problem.
ascii_launchpad wonders how many of these 'beautiful surprises' it would take to make mircea_popescu
a candidate for same nuthouse as ascii_launchpad
mircea_popescu: Alternatively,
a repository configuration can be added manually without installing the nginx-release package. Create the file named /etc/yum.repos.d/nginx.repo with the following contents:

a very finely cultivated gentoo or bsd box feels like ^
trinque: he's got
a twitter somewhere that farts 'em out
trinque: I don't think that was
a complete run
ascii_launchpad: 'To build Apache Bigtop, you apparently first have to install puppet3. Let it download magic data from the internet. Then it tries to run sudo puppet to enable the NSA backdoors (for example, it will download and install an outdated precompiled JDK, because it considers you too stupid to install Java.) And then hope the gradle build doesn't throw
a 200 line useless backtrace.' << when do we set the biodiesel boilers
ascii_launchpad: 'Consider for example Hadoop. Nobody seems to know how to build Hadoop from scratch.' << no one knows how to recreate
a turd 'from scratch' either. though, there was this one 'art installation' fella who tried. had whole synthetic digestion apparatus, looked sorta like
a small pharma pilot plant
assbot: Logged on 22-04-2015 22:21:59; mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes the fact that the imbeciles commenting on that thing stupid shite like "you make
a poor assumption that the NSA or whoever couldn't also add backdoors and other such snoop to the source code base, so when you compile it yourself, you are compiling the NSA right in. Yes it would be more difficult, because the maintainers should be watching, but if they've been forced into it, would you even
ascii_launchpad was -of course- put by cabbie at the, ahm, wrong terminal, had to do
a bit of gymnastics
BingoBoingo: Or from Jonah: "We should give you
a call-in number, just because you’ve sort of become our public editor, our ombudsman or something, our ombudsman at BuzzFeed."
BingoBoingo: Nah, but you get lines like "When we were sending around
a draft of the standards document, what I said to everybody was, hey, read this really closely, because what you do when you publish standards, is that you make Gawker your public editor. Sure, we’ll be looking for [violations of standards internally]—[but] you’ve got all of Twitter, and you’ve got Gawker. So I have really little to complain about, in some sense. Do
lobbes: naw I don't think they linked to qntra directly, just funny that they did the same scoop
a month after us
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes the fact that the imbeciles commenting on that thing stupid shite like "you make

☟︎ artifexd: I'm comfortable calling it
a review. Not just of what it is but what it was and how it got to where it is.
mircea_popescu: Back then, years ago, Linux distributions were trying to provide you with
a safe operating system. With signed packages, built from
a web of trust. Some even work on reproducible builds.
mircea_popescu: (i dun imagine anyone seriously deluded themselves into the belief that mit's involvement is going to disuade anyone one ; i do imagine mit thought itself large enough to absorb the shock and not end up like mtgox as
a result - which is just as silly, but not necessarily visible from boston)
mircea_popescu: anyway, b-
a vs mit is
a lot better than b-
a vs some scammer's fake "foundation". we're going up in the world.
mike_c: "I’m offering MIT as
a neutral academic home for some of the conversations and the technical coordination"
funkenstein_: anybody catch
a look at the LMC from buenos aires?
mats: "MIT is no longer the hallowed Library of Alexandria that shared the Lisp Machine and SICP with the world. Today, its made up of showmen and fools like Gavin, who endeavor to destroy software they don't understand, on behalf of
a handler. Your relevance fades, and in
a decade your cohorts will disavow any knowledge of you. Enjoy your faux relevancy as long
funkenstein_: from comments to gavintech announcement: "I'm very happy that you found
a good place to land" <-- like he's
a helpless orphan
Pierre_Rochard: davout: perhaps bruce fenton will find
a wealthy sheikh to revive this particular abomination. They have wasted their oil wealth in worse ways
davout: Pierre_Rochard: in
a few months it'll be "current liabilities less total cash"
davout: funnily enough, "pédale" in french is
a derogatory word for
a man who likes to receive butseks
lobbes: Hell, it is like
a sin to have
a good guitar instrumental these days. And I could never get into 'metal'; too much speed, not enough soul
