ben_vulpes: i plan to bike around, wander around
a few neighborhoods, post up in cafés to get some personal hax in, take tango lessons in the evening, nap, eat steak drink wine, sleep, repeat, con, etc.
pete_dushenski: it wouldn't be much less travel from here to meat-b-
a. timisoara woulda been faster to travel to.
ben_vulpes: perhaps
a whole cult springs up around it someday - "to wind the clock!"
pete_dushenski: lol yup. twas
a full, productive day. i'll sleep well tonight
ben_vulpes: <nubbins`> [03:53] and i walk around for
a half hour... rolling it << i chased myself around my brain trying to get
a look at myself for an hour or four on acid this one time
assbot: gavinandresen comments on There is
a targeted attack on Bitcoin occurring right now, coordinated by national agencies. I know this because I am an insider with prior involvement in
a key operation. ... (

pete_dushenski: "Okey dokey, but this smells very much like
a conspiracy theory. Especially the action item at the end: "spread the word." If you had ended with "These are the concrete things we all should be doing" then I'd be more sympathetic... assuming those things weren't just "BE EXTRA PARANOID! THEY ARE OUT TO GET US!" "
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: tenure does not exist in canada? << it does. but like
a thursday night of caviar and dom p, isn't for everyone.
BingoBoingo: Glen Greenwald opening the conversation with Snowden by trying to write
a story about snowden during day 1 of year 0
BingoBoingo: rewatching citizen4 snowden gedanken film. Forgot they showed the NSA facility under construction in Mormon Judea as
a backdrop for so many narrations. Awfully close to the interstate.
pete_dushenski: mebbe your friend the joo was shipped off in
a cattle car
pete_dushenski: but
a non-nazi german would've still witnessed abuses and tragedies, first hand, that would make
a deskmonkey faint instantly
Chillum: harp hooting is when you play
a harp while making obnoxious hooting noises at passing women
assbot: You know what doesn’t wash? Your pathetic attempts to “teach the controversy.” That’s what. | Contravex:
A blog by Pete Dushenski ... (

decimation: actually if you want to have something amusing stand the test of time, why not make
a '10,000 year clock' like those yahoos in texas
Chillum: which is smoking through
a trumpet
decimation: maybe you could sculpt
a facsimile of yourself and cut its fuckkin' hand off
nubbins`: anyway i'm gonna have
a jazz smoke and head to bed. if someone gets portatronic pogotronic static-o-matic bitcoind recipe posted to ML by month's end, i'll send you
a free hand-bound book
Chillum: I will have to include
a stone version of the block chain
Chillum: like you could encrypt
a message that could be decoded until
a specific date
decimation: asciilifeform: but if your purpose is to send bitcoin to random person, just send it to
a random address?
Chillum: it would be nice if there was
a public/private key system somehow based on time
Chillum: seriously though, create
a giant pyramid over it
Chillum: decimation:
a bitcoin wallet with 1 bitcoin, think about how much it will be worth in 4000 years!
nubbins`: says "oh, i forgot", pours his quarter-cup of water into
a mug, puts the pot (which has only contained water) into
a dirty sink for someone else to wash
nubbins`: heads upstairs, the water boils, boils, boils down to
a quarter-cup before he wanders back down
nubbins`: so the roomie that's being kicked out: he puts on
a pot of water to boil yesterday
nubbins`: incidentally, i had
a crazy stomach flu
a couple years ago and now whenever i get really hungry i feel like barfing
trinque: like leakage between whatever can make
a grain of rice appear in my mind's eye
nubbins`: and i walk around for
a half hour... rolling it
nubbins`: but it's stuck in my head and every once in
a while i get
a grain of salt stuck to my thumb
trinque: I'm confused; this was an object or just
a sensation?
nubbins`: i have this hazy memory of being extremely sick as
a young child, and rolling some very small object, like the size of
a grain of sand, between my thumb and forefinger as i writhed in agony
nubbins`: anyway, who can say how
a thing gets into
a brain?
trinque: getting all this sensory input from
a thing that shouldn't be there
nubbins`: had
a fingertip amputated maybe 15 years ago
assbot: Logged on 27-02-2015 02:39:08; decimation: "LAWRENCE Look, Ali. Look! That's me. What colour is it? That's me! And there's nothing I can do about it. ALI
A man can do whatever he wants, you said. LAWRENCE He can, but he can't want what he wants.This is the stuff [his flesh] that decides what he wants."
trinque: that begins to make
a shred of sense
nubbins`: anyone who claims to have
a grasp on the processes behind these decisions is blowing smoke up your ass
decimation: ok imagine you had
a gold-etched lexan 'wallet'
Chillum: the fact is we have
a big tech gap when it comes to storing digital information for long term
nubbins`: sure. and that's for something as trivial and banal as
a fucking /job/.
Chillum:
a true engraving or outside cut-out would be more ideal
decimation: asciilifeform: or you could use
a 'letter & number die punch set', it would take quite awhile to wear off
trinque: that relates to how I see this, as
a sort of obsession with identity
trinque: nubbins`: identity-wise? I don't tend to think about it. maybe something to do with
a job
decimation: if you want to make
a 'long life wallet' just get
a small sheet of bronze and hand-etch with 'hand engraver' for 10 bux
trinque: we just know how to turn
a dick inside out and sew it inside
nubbins`: multiply that by 1000, and make it about having
a pussy instead of
a dick.
trinque: just seems
a bad substitute for whatever used to satisfy it, if that's so
Chillum: I expect to remove
a layer of foil, laminent or anodization from metal
trinque: nubbins`: nah it seems like...
a big deal
decimation: does usg even allow you to possess
a laser like that without permission?
nubbins`: trinque it kinda seems like you're arguing people cut their dicks off /on
a whim/
Chillum: asciilifeform: I am for
a larger place to live, then I will be getting one. Will certainly be doing
a lot of research first
Chillum: true but beyond
a certain power other types of lasers make more sense
Chillum: cutting metal is
a no-go for co2 lasers, not going to spend 20k+ on
a metal cutter
Chillum: could work. The problem is that everyone needs their own laser cutter as you cannot trust another to make
a key for you
mircea_popescu: actually the bronze age items will still be imperceptibly altered long after new york is barely
a flat spot in the sediment record.
