ben_vulpes: i appreciate it, but don't worry about it.
adlai: if there's interest in using a git repo for this, I still have the git repo locally
ben_vulpes: (i think)
kakobrekla: i think adlai removed it after asciis bitching
adlai: oh I deleted that since it seemed there was no interest in using it
jurov: http://btc.yt/ << i have only now remembered i squatted this year ago
kakobrekla: yea, i guess sarcasm doesnt always travel well over irc.
ben_vulpes: lol no not specifically - probably before my time. but i've played derivatives i think
mircea_popescu: nothing up here but trees and bears, no jobs, no high speed internet to speak of, can't even get decent cell service up here. Though for the day! Having my own t-3 pipe put in, and then I can offer real high speed internet. This is not the place to live if you are a high end gamer......... << lol real german angry kid up there.
ben_vulpes: i just plug the tubes together
ben_vulpes: (compilation in different environments is hell. HELL I SAY. especially this warty cpp.)
kakobrekla: i looked at that yt and i dont understand what did i just see
cazalla: adlai: josh garza's previous scam: http://www.topix.com/forum/city/canaan-vt/THJFBNV4MIFIR075C <<< the guy tells lies faster than anyone on this planet can fact check, not worthwhile pursuing, it's easy to punch holes in his gawminer shit, i'm sure some other scammers will soon come to collect his scammed funds
ben_vulpes: i explained to the business partner last night why the full test loop could be as long as two weeks
ben_vulpes: let's be clear tho - that's a failing build, and i've not backported any of the tests yet.
ben_vulpes: i don't have any truck with atoms any more
nubbins`: it's been sitting on a piano bench in the box i received it in for a few months now because there's nowhere for it to go
nubbins`: i don't really want to have to care for it
ben_vulpes: nubbins`: i'm a bit surprised you're not holding onto it for another decade
nubbins`: but FYI, i'm negotiating a price with a buyer now for my genesis block newspaper (the times jan 3 2009) ☟︎
nubbins`: i know you guys generally aren't into ephemera
gribble: asciilifeform was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 2 days, 21 hours, 18 minutes, and 16 seconds ago: <asciilifeform> ben_vulpes: i never understood the 'happy hacking keyboard' and imitators. being as i live and die by function keys, the more the merrier. why voluntarily have fewer?
kakobrekla: i decided ill equip the bitcoin newbs with trezors for new years gifts
mike_c: kakobrekla, any chance I got de-whitelisted from bitbet? I've been failing every hourly update since..
ben_vulpes: i've got one at 251442 :p
kakobrekla: well i have a copy of the chan at 200k
ben_vulpes: but i restarted it a few times and waited a few days to no avail
ben_vulpes: mebbe i'm just impatient or on shoddy hardware
kakobrekla suspects you do not have to go fron scratch - when i got stuck and added the settings it looked pretty bleak for some time, but after some hours and a restart the thing jumped.
ben_vulpes: kakobrekla mircea_popescu: i had to rebuild my 0.5.3 chain from scratch, but your(pl.) DB_CONFIG tip freed my vanila 0.5.3 build to unwedge progress to 254471 as of this morning (ping: asciilifeform, mod6)
adlai: it's far from ideal, but I can imagine much better ways of integrating the "spritz" window with a wider view of the text (or an outline)
kakobrekla: so i kinda gave them a pass on this topcoin bs
kakobrekla: i like their no bs backend interface
kakobrekla: anywho i got those from uniregistry registrar
kakobrekla: why caps every letter, i dunno.
mircea_popescu: i see.
kakobrekla: interestingly, 'bitcoin-assets' non .com tlds got squated a week after i registered .com
PinkPosixPXE: makes me wonder if I should start registering a few
mircea_popescu: "Still, with a small $10 registration fee, and the fact that I need fodder for this blog, I decided to venture out and try my luck with .link. Of the 11 I found available, I decided that only six were really worth the gamble."
assbot: I finally registered a new TLD. Here is the (long) story. | Domain Name Wire | Domain Name News & Views ... ( http://bit.ly/129sltw )
mircea_popescu: myeah with all the new tlds i expect per domain registration to drop around $1
kakobrekla: can i get a TA opinion kthx. < new year is close.
PinkPosixPXE: he's tiny, if i tried to jog him around a track he'd be exhausted 1/4 of the way through
mircea_popescu: http://stats.bitcoin-assets.com/ << can i get a TA opinion kthx.
PinkPosixPXE: perhaps with my friends come over tonight to have treats, cider, and hang out by the fire/watch something, I will throw this on :)
PinkPosixPXE: actually, haha, I think I have seen this, wow, I have to watch this again
mircea_popescu: "I think you make an excellent point, but all these cases are examples of guys who got a seat on a rocket and were pretty ruthless about who else got to ride."
mircea_popescu: it takes astute practical thinkers like the buffett of the 70s and turns them into "i believe in america and carbon tax credits!" sort of al gore marionette.
mircea_popescu: jesus the sort of brainrot. see kids, i have another reason to crack down on socialism, and an additional argument to use when I do : socialism makes you stupid.
ben_vulpes: anyways, i'm off for the night.
punkman: nah, I'll put it on my DO account so I don't have to bother anyone
ben_vulpes: i ain't setting anything up but i can spin you up an aws box of your own
punkman: I'll split up the web part
punkman: I got a set or two, they usually survive small falls
ben_vulpes: in the house in which i grew up were*
ben_vulpes: the windows in the house i grew up
ben_vulpes: subject of crystal, i was washing one out this evening and it struck me how fragile all of civilization is. take that glass - wash it in water too warm or too hot or switch the temperature too abruptly and the thing will whine and fall apart in your hands.
mircea_popescu: <ben_vulpes> i'm sure it was a good time for all involved. joints, flasks, conversation that all agreed on important topics... << notice what the cocktail party of the 70s has turned into.
decimation: I mean the husband owning the wife
ben_vulpes: i'm sure it was a good time for all involved. joints, flasks, conversation that all agreed on important topics...
undata: interesting, I wonder what that group will evolve into
undata: my grandfather (who I admire) was largely ignored in the 70s
mircea_popescu: "Tom Reagan: I am awake. Tad: Your eyes are shut. Tom Reagan: Who you gonna believe?"
decimation: Possibly. I get the feeling that republicans tend to be more ideological though
mircea_popescu: and besides, very deeply human thing, someone on his knees in a church or behind a tree or somehting, "please, i can't take this"
mircea_popescu: i never actually went that far.
decimation: I just stumbled on this webpage: http://oathkeepers.org/oath/ << apparently there is an organization of us military who will keep their 'oath' to the constitution
undata: but I've always wanted to be in an environment where people would fight each other for the best idea
undata: I am too young to know whether this was always the case
mircea_popescu: well, it's difficult to circumscribe it, seeing how it's a word with no definition enacted by usage of a tribe that's not particularly thinking-inclined. but i would say "niceness" mostly denotes a sort of bovine passivity.
mircea_popescu: i get why it'd be nice for ruthlesness to carry the connotations meanness properly does. however, something being nice doesn't really do anything. if only it did, then the nice people'd be like mages, calling forth reality out of their fucking song.
mircea_popescu: "Why? I think there are several reasons. One is that being mean makes you stupid. That's why I hate fights. You never do your best work in a fight, because fights are not sufficiently general. Winning is always a function of the situation and the people involved. You don't win fights by thinking of big ideas but by thinking of tricks that work in one particular case. And yet fighting is just as much work as thinking ab
undata: when I was 19 I was drummed out of a ruby on rails startup for my aforementioned rant
decimation: undata: from the outside, I've see the 'startup' debt-funding culture creates all sorts of weird behaviors
undata: I have literally screamed "We need to make money!" at multiple jobs before setting out on my own.
undata: better to program programmers, or so I hear
mircea_popescu: this is how i know i'm not a programmer. i have not actually pressed any F key in... uh. months ?
gribble: asciilifeform was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 2 days, 7 hours, 55 minutes, and 32 seconds ago: <asciilifeform> ben_vulpes: i never understood the 'happy hacking keyboard' and imitators. being as i live and die by function keys, the more the merrier. why voluntarily have fewer?
mircea_popescu: so here's an idea i just had : if one were to take a gas with favourable properties (such as high phase lambda, low evaporation temperature, stuff like that) and put a bunch of it liquefied in a canister
thestringpuller: decimation: I wonder how long they can keep it up.
mats_cd03: i should probably save these for when asciilifeform is around
mats_cd03: i just had a glass of milk after avoiding lactose for over a year
jurov: I don't see how shoving the entire protocol in the kernel makes sense << they don't want unnecessary context switches
decimation: I think the might have some legitimate points about shortcomings in existing IPC mechanisms, but I don't see how shoving the entire protocol in the kernel makes sense
decimation: Alan Cox: http://lwn.net/Articles/619142/ "No - these are reasons to have *something* in the kernel. I think it would be far more constructive to treat the current kdbus as a proof of
kakobrekla: but i guess everything goes faster on the second try
decimation: I guess that would imply full moderation
mats_cd03: i have a right not to be cloaked!
kuzetsa: like... my expectations were low but I was still blown away with how awful it was :(
kuzetsa: (I don't care enough to discuss the proxy thing ... people just keep re-bringing it up and highlighting me in the process)
mircea_popescu: lol i guess
mircea_popescu: there's kinda no way out of the "i don't want to pay attention, why don't i understand anything" trap.
kuzetsa: I've only privmsg'd assbot with the !up thinger less than 10 times
kuzetsa: and I recently wiped my logs so it only goes back a week or two curently
kuzetsa: I usually don't pay much attention though
kuzetsa: I've been idling for several consecutive months
kuzetsa: I didn't think anyone in this channel could post unless they were at least known in the -otc WoT
kuzetsa: and I was irked when I saw how many non-youtube scripts hidemyass was trying to run :(
kuzetsa: so I couldn't see the youtube video
kuzetsa: I just use a sane browser that doesn't run scripts by default
