BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> also, mccain defected gop
ticket did he << Him AND Graham and a rotating handful of marginal Senators
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Sure
there are. Happens in hospital ER's across USia every day. Customer gets million dollars in credit and
then ObuggeredCare
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo except, of course,
there's not going
to be 3k enmilionaired, but a little campaign contribution for wi whatevers and a little extra propo for
the bezzle fortunes of w/e
the fuck is
the oligarch in charge.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> marginally qntrable, if bb's short on lulz
today. << Still surveying
the world. Could be Qntra'd likeley a perfect fit for shinohai's WHoreticulture journal
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> (for
the slow of maffs and usg bureaukratura : 3bn for 3k means 1mn per head. woulda been cheaper
to shoot
them.) << But lulziest
to en-millionaire 3 kilobodies. So many bad decisions!
mircea_popescu: (rome became a socialist state with sulla ; or if you prefer marian reforms.
this is about 4 centuries after
the founding -- we're not about
to credit
the 750 date of
the founding of
the ~etruscan~ city)
mircea_popescu: it is, actually, about
twice as long as rome stood,
their idle pretense
to millenarity notwithstanding.
mircea_popescu: to remind : venice stood for a millenium.
this is longer
than
the "thousand years reich" national-socialism managed ; it is longer
than any french "republic" ever succeeded ; longer
than
the entire existence of
the us by a factor of about
three, notwithstanding
the us didn't start out as a socialist state.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile
the republic needs no such nonsense, as it prevails in
the open air against
the pantsuit decoctions.
mircea_popescu: the reason for
the asymmetry is
that socialism positively needs its unicity argument, as it has no others. without "ourdemocracy is
the worst form of government, except for all
the others [we're willing
to consider, in a limited review intended
to circularily "prove"
the point]"
there's no ourdemocracy.
mircea_popescu: anyway,
the important, overarching point above is
that
the situation is not symmetrical. yes,
the continued existence of
the republic is, in and of itself, some kind of victory against socialism ; but no,
the continued existence of socialism is no kind of victory, for it, or against
the republic.
mircea_popescu: the hot
topic nation has yet
to come up with an original idea.
mircea_popescu: thermodynamics will eventually dispose ; how about you don't give blind nature
too much kinetics.
mircea_popescu: other idiots fall into,
then spiders come and lay eggs,
then moss eats
the etc. eventually it's flat again.
mircea_popescu: people gouging out
their eyes
to spite
their nose aren't specifically winning "some kind of victory against noses"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i'm not saying stupidity is not stupidity, you. i am saying, it is no sort of victory for
the stupid.
mircea_popescu: obviously not
the same size of stupidity. but
the same KIND. which was
the point here, category.
mircea_popescu: wrt
to
the item of interest ? who
the fuck cares what dood writes on his website.
mircea_popescu: for as long as miners mine only
txn divisible by
two,
they're welcome
to... mine
them.
mircea_popescu: what exactly "victory" ? for as long as ustards keep on pretending washington dc is "the capital" of some imaginary "sovereign country",
they're more
than welcome
to...
themselves... act if iti were. no more.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile, online commerce is ~entirely incapable
to proceed with
the use of credit cards.
mircea_popescu: FACT :
the "space gain"
that will be provided by "segregated witness" in its entire existence will not actually cover
the full bitcoin blocks lost
to date with
the dicking about.
a111: Logged on 2017-07-28 14:56 mircea_popescu: makes it even lulzier
that
they had
to destroy
the block space
to save it.
adlai: some alts activated SW already, all
the political pressure with nowhere
to go in bitcoin, overflowed into, eg, litecoin
adlai: my guess, given
that it recurs, is
that it's how
the commitment
to an empty
tree looks. what it does, is
tell us
that
those miners are producing SW blocks but have nobody actually using SW
mod6: i wonder wtf
though 'eh?
mod6: enter and lcall kinda got me
thinkin
though
mod6: i reversed
the bytes of
the script ^
mod6: but 477915 seems
to be strange with
that 'data_hex: aa21a9ede2f61c3f71d1defd3fa999dfa36953755c690689799962b48bebd836974e8cf9' & 'script_type: null-data'
mod6: the first
time i start
to see
that Null Data for
the coinbase
tx is on block 476`174.
mircea_popescu: (for
the slow of maffs and usg bureaukratura : 3bn for 3k means 1mn per head. woulda been cheaper
to shoot
them.)
mircea_popescu: this is some of
the choicest lolz chop ever seen in
teh field.
mircea_popescu: and in other maga, wisconsin agrees
to pay foxconn 3bn
to employ 3k local
tards so
trump can claim
the chinos invest in
the us now.
jhvh1: shinohai:
The operation succeeded.
shinohai: !~later

this order. Please retry in few minutes." on coinbr for 3 days now, please
to investigate.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: (such as colonna, more or less source of
the old guy in
http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=un+prophete ; at his conviction in 2012
the french equivalent of a federal court gave reasoning for its sentence, for
the first
time in french legal practice. cuz empire wanna be part of euroland.)
mircea_popescu: not
to mention various corsican independence "malfaiteurs" and so forth.
mircea_popescu: dorkitude's pretention
to
the contrary never lasts
too long, or how did shakespeare put it.
a111: Logged on 2017-07-25 23:58 asciilifeform: replaces all mention of
trilema with 'fraudster'
mircea_popescu: the
topic of
that line is "strange, unexplained bitfield, found unfunctionally in single
tx block, and other places".

ave1: I've
tested it with different gnats but so far did not get
the adainclude problem
ave1: It now builds
the 2016 GPL version by default
mircea_popescu: and in unrelated random lulz : during ww1
the count of derby came up with a nutty scheme
to pressure people into "volunteering" for service without actually calling a draft. in spite of involving every busybody
that could be find, male and female,
to pester and harass
the general populace, 54% of married men and 38% of single men publicly refused
to enlist
thereby empirically measuring
the mental power of a period wife

☟︎ mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo dood only reigned in one of 3 principalities
though.
mircea_popescu tried
to review sherlock holmes (in
the shape of 1939 piece, with b rathebone). still can't understand how anyone can like it. dude's simply an exercise in contradictorianism.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> (everyone else
thinks caul births are a good omen. romanians, as usual, reverse.) << Perhaps it is all
the sons of beggars fearing
the crown?
mircea_popescu: (everyone else

BingoBoingo: Ah, well at least vlad
tepee > jihadi peepee
mircea_popescu: in fact,
there is, it was just born with story bifida.
mircea_popescu: so because
the ro vampire idea was cleaved
through
the middle, separating
the sexual and mystical portions into
two different items it seems
there's no indigenuous vampire myth.
mircea_popescu: through heart and other proceedings).
these will
then suck
the mana (life force) out of crops/cattle.
mircea_popescu: for
the record : it is incorrect romania had no indigenous vampire myth.
the error is excusable due
to
the compelx circumstance : romania has
TWO kinds of vampires. one is
the flyer, a sort of strange beast
that bothers young maidens (females only), giving
them anemia and hot dreams.
the other is a witch/ghost sort of item
that comes out of children born with caput galeatum (caita in ro) which are improperly buried (no stake
mircea_popescu: "senior" "political analist" "on maternity leave". hurr durr etcetera, signalling up
to 11 maybe 9 wasn't enough.
BingoBoingo: but keep gcc4 in
the build for
these as well
BingoBoingo: switch
the default compiler on amd64 and i386
to clang,
