mircea_popescu: i was like "aren't you ashamed of yourself" and he pretended like he doesn't know i'm talking to him. EXACTLY like clinton & friends.
mircea_popescu: they don't like to save in the local currency of a tiny mismanaged we-produce-nothing "corporation"
trinque: asciilifeform: none, but they're miserable they aren't
mircea_popescu: meanwhile the east coast moved to a very mechanicistic "if you can't engineer you're a failed bioexperiment", which makes for a slightly differenty flavour of very unhappy, somewhat overweight neuroticoball.
mircea_popescu: but for the sake of historical record, the very traditional central european "you may not say no to a man ; and ESPECIALLY not sexually" lands, ie from south carolina south and west as far as maybe eastern arizona, provide slut protection, in that "and if you end up alone with three kids before you're 30 i won't hold that against you".
mircea_popescu: in fact there's a lot of ethnographic and social difference across the "nation" which isn't. that the pantsuit don't know about it... well... they don't know about anything else, either, do they.
mircea_popescu: i don't expect the hyphenating kind would put the husband first.
mircea_popescu: talk about "efficient market hypothesis". this is A LOT more in demand than pink ipad covers, for instance. "oh but mp, pink ipad covers aren't illegal!" o ya ? ALSO more in demand than cocaine.
mircea_popescu: i get it, you don't powerlunch there every day. but if you run into a gal that takes your breath away... wouldn't it be the proper time ?
mircea_popescu: hey. they did want to count mine when i landed. i... didn't cooperate (but i did let them watch while i did, so there was that)
a111: Logged on 2017-12-07 20:49 hanbot: I don't recall ever seeing cleaning crews near the river. or anywhere other than the esquinas of convenience stores. anyway, if they're anything like their southern neighbors ~everyone you meet will warn you about pickpockets/bag snatchers, to the degree someone who doesn't offer such warnings is by that sign a potential friend ;)
asciilifeform: dunno, i saw 'sofas' there that hadn't 'gone to the oven' yet
mircea_popescu: i don't think i ever met an argentine who had any money. at all. ever.
mircea_popescu: they didn't get it for a purpose. they got it because they think owning subs is how you further the pretense of countryhood.
a111: Logged on 2017-12-07 21:00 mircea_popescu: "oh, we are currently fibbing about you have immunity, therefore your constitutional protection is null and void, cuz that's how constitutions work now, therefore... oh what do you mean we'll change our mind later ? OF COURSE! you don't understand how the world works ?!"
a111: Logged on 2017-12-07 21:05 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-07#1748231 << don't tell me, usg-run "exchange" periodically "victim of own success", as usg imagines this to go.
a111: Logged on 2017-12-07 22:15 mircea_popescu: and in further "i can't believe that shit still exists" lulz, coupled with "here comes the self-eating shit sandwich", http://perezhilton.com/2017-12-07-melanie-martinez-rape-accusation-fan-merch
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-07#1748335 << waitasec isn't she a she ? 'rapist' ? ☝︎

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo oddly enough latinos don't really believe in "how about you doin't dirty las playas in the first place".
hanbot: I don't recall ever seeing cleaning crews near the river. or anywhere other than the esquinas of convenience stores. anyway, if they're anything like their southern neighbors ~everyone you meet will warn you about pickpockets/bag snatchers, to the degree someone who doesn't offer such warnings is by that sign a potential friend ;) ☟︎
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Apparently you haven't seen the castles the Busch family built with their soda swill revenues
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i can't speak for others, but picasso dun fit in my arse
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: if you declare suitcase-with-million, you won't leave the airport. not on own legs. << This is why picasos are a thing
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: if you declare suitcase-with-million, you won't leave the airport. not on own legs.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> "that aside, experimentally BingoBoingo produced a gangster roll out of a btc. i don't expect anything changed other than same item now costs .5" << you get THE ITEM THAT IS. for ever less btc. << And there's the pain of the experiment
mircea_popescu: diana_coman i don't mean re this, necessarily. mpi as an import is one thing
asciilifeform: i'd volunteer to make this surgery but doesn't mg have programming folx on retainer..
mircea_popescu: so then why can't she simply move the mpi/ dir into eucrypt/mpi/ and proceed ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: why the fuck exactly can't i move project/a to master/project/a through a patch ?
trinque: mircea_popescu: I'll peek at logs real quick, then let ya know. it hasn't reconnected since the netsplit
diana_coman: asciilifeform, can you work me through the steps to "subsume it into your own"? I don't yet see clearly what that is
asciilifeform: that part isn't puzzling, it's a straight patch on top of second_cut
mircea_popescu: you can't get TWO because there... aren't... two.
mircea_popescu: "that aside, experimentally BingoBoingo produced a gangster roll out of a btc. i don't expect anything changed other than same item now costs .5" << you get THE ITEM THAT IS. for ever less btc.
mircea_popescu: i don't expect anything changed other than same item now costs .5
mircea_popescu: about 5 passes of this "it has nothing to do with bitcoin" and it still didn't take or what are we doing here ?
mircea_popescu: the funny thing being that it's EXACTLY how everthing else works. you didn't http://trilema.com/2013/whore-strat/ at 15 yo because "school" ? lol. YOU LOST.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-29 07:17 mircea_popescu: i just hope 100k doesn't happen before new year's.
asciilifeform: in this case i can't even tell what the spamola-angle is supposed to be
asciilifeform: if there isn't 'mpi' in each -- your patch is off
mircea_popescu: and it won't likely be her.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i don't recognize usg-painted map.
BingoBoingo: I don't know yet that they lubricate
BingoBoingo: The biggest impression montevideo is making on me is that it needs a trip to the BingoBoingo store for white lithium grease and toilet seats that aren't made out of particleboard
diana_coman doesn't claim much rum-knowledge
mircea_popescu: diana_coman you don't have good rum.
mircea_popescu: and in other "omg i can't believe this still exists", http://violentacres.com/two-phrases-that-destroyed-american-culture/
mircea_popescu: you WEREN'T ?
mircea_popescu: they utterly don't belong there. you got a .sig mechanism for this.
phf: and that doesn't in any way require breaking the files?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you shouldn't put gpg clearsigned bits in a patch in the first place.
asciilifeform: phf: can you come up with a pill that doesn't break ada comments ?
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-06#1747657 << this wouldn't fix the problem, only move it. thinkaboutit. inband signalling sux. ☝︎
phf: so this error wouldn't surface until very last mile, in my case http://btcbase.org/patches/mpi_second_cut/tree/mpi/README fails to press
mod6: crap, just a sec, haven't even looked yet. bbs.
mod6: because what i don't want to do is have a perl genesis, then some vpatch that deletes everything and inflates a bunch of ada stuffs. prolly be better to start in the lang you expect to say within for the lifetime of the application.
mod6: <+trinque> genesis doesn't have to mean perfect. <+trinque> nobody's going to come for you with pitchforks << no one expects a spanish something or other either...
mircea_popescu: observe that after bitching about the quality of work in empire, along the lines of "everything works for as long as you don't use it", our pile of stuff exhibits the same exact property.
mod6: it can't check the expected sha of a patch BEFORE its DONE patching.
trinque: genesis doesn't have to mean perfect.
mod6: Despite 2 years of development, we still arn't there yet.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 wanna genesis your vtron ? << at this rate, doesn't look like it.
mircea_popescu: this can't be what finished ever means.
diana_coman: asciilifeform, there is something I don't understand: shouldn't I be able to press the second cut now with the new genesis present?
asciilifeform: ( one is, if it isn't clear, the 2015 sad genesis; the other -- the fixed, in http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-06#1747474 . ) ☝︎
trinque: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-06#1747462 << don't want to step on phf's toes here; he's operating the logger and v-patch viewer ☝︎
asciilifeform: it doesn't press because vtron chokes on the timestamps.
mircea_popescu: so then why doesn't it press ? there's something amiss here.
asciilifeform: they won't diverge though
asciilifeform: since that item i've avoided stuffing'em into tarballs, it doesn't help but often trips up various automated items like phf's
phf: asciilifeform: something like that. my btcbase vpatch grepper is dumb (it's my own eyes, but not the brain) and it's mostly just looking for things that look like a vpatch/vdiff. i definitely didn't unpack the first post tgz
phf: asciilifeform: i had issues specifically with an older, genesis-less version. my system doesn't require antecedents to be there, but for some reason when there's only one, antecedent-less patch it gives me a 404. i've not actually investigated, since you produced a genesis since
a111: Logged on 2017-11-15 18:23 mircea_popescu: maybe his thing didn't eat it for some reason.
asciilifeform: now i recall also that phf had some trouble at first eating the thing, http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-15#1739113 and elsewhere. but i can't seem to find in the log whether he ever said what the problem was, and how fixed. ☝︎
asciilifeform: and persists still if the filename is fixed, so it wasn't the cause.
asciilifeform: so it ain't hoster shenanigans, unless quite elaborate and patch-dependent
asciilifeform: where it silently barfs on a signature and doesn't say why
diana_coman: ok, let me try with yours too then, can't hurt
diana_coman: mod6 or asciilifeform, can you help? I'm trying to press asciilifeform's second patch for sane-mpi and V complains that it can't find the vpatch file although it is there (and I checked the sig too and it's all fine); I'm running your V, version thebitcoin.foundation/v/V-20170317.tar.gz.mod6 ; I have the following folder structure: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/1ZwgW/?raw=true; Here's the error when I run v press verbose . mpi_second_cut.vpa
mircea_popescu: ie, isn't a port from system with kbd-and-mouse, but actually designed / thought into the terms of a tapdevice.
mircea_popescu: or maybe you didn't fly with HookAir ?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo you're supposed to suck aircock the whole way, didn't the stewardess tell you ?
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> but yes, airflight ain't all it's cracked up to be. only seems a big deal before ape invents airplane. << Only really big deal besides boredom and comms blackout is barotraumo to the ears
mircea_popescu: incidentally, re that : i don't think most people are equipped to evaluate how much it'd suck. i base this on my own experience, whereby i didn't understand what sex in tub is like before trying.
mircea_popescu: but yes, airflight ain't all it's cracked up to be. only seems a big deal before ape invents airplane.
mircea_popescu: nao don't go casinoing.
BingoBoingo: Well, probably investigating them. Switch is still new in box unconfigured, server hasn't been more than assembled
a111: Logged on 2017-12-05 23:42 mircea_popescu: "Why exactly does a browser need to ship with any preconceived notions of how to decode video and graphics? Or audio, or text, for that matter?" << fundamentally, because we don't want to permit it to run code.
mircea_popescu: we wouldn't. that's the point.
asciilifeform: but if you haven't executed a Q ( halt ) before the stated tick count, yer program is deemed notwellformed.

mircea_popescu: wasn't this the whole pile at the hoster we discontinued ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: afaik old reddit derp can't buy 35 grams of woman.
mircea_popescu: thing with gold is that it doesn't take altogether much (volume) to get a kg or two
asciilifeform: from orlolcommentz: ' Much to my surprise, it doesn't translate internationally as easily as one might think. I have a - very - little gold. When I wanted to sell some here in Ecuador early this year, I discovered that in fact there is no-one in Ecuador who buys gold. Moreover, there is also no-one who would take it back to the Perth Mint [Australia] from whence it came. DHL and Fed-Ex only move papers!! There are no couriers. !! I t
asciilifeform: i simply dun fully buy into the 'gnarly source is exactly same level of retardation as straight microshitization'. it isn't quite same thing.
mircea_popescu: whenever oen tries -- it doesn't. for as long as one does not try -- "it does just fine".
