PeterL: after mircea_popescu left, in #debianfork: tmyklebu: he's not weird enough to be
a billionaire.
thestringpuller: interesting point with moshpit it is
a very inefficient exertion of energy
ascii_field: quite
a few people have not made the conceptual leap to seeing the malice behind the incompetence
danielpbarron: i don't know how to use computers because i'm actually good at it; it's
a matter of necessity
danielpbarron: apparently there is
a way to enable ssh on
a brand new pogo without using their stupid website
mircea_popescu: if the source of
a traffic spike is directly identifiable (X site linking) vs if it's not (various sites linking)
mircea_popescu: ascii_field admitting traffic is
a notion with an actual real equivalent,
gribble: trinque was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 17 hours, 48 minutes, and 40 seconds ago: <trinque> two generations out of
a high child mortality rate and people think they're bulletproof
ascii_field: well yes, that's how my chinese scope gets
a 100MHz sampler using 20MHz chinese ADCs
mircea_popescu: imagine alf!
a memory scheme which allows you to shoot at the memory units, and add more as you wish without kernel panic.
ascii_field: but this turns into
a very different flavour of project
mircea_popescu: ok. so then make
a sane addressing scheme, and put
a controller in and that's that.
ascii_field: i've contemplated
a revival of delay-line memories using modern high-frequency amps
assbot: Logged on 19-02-2015 11:57:09; brendafdez: Having the adware preinstalled sort of spares the user the time and ensures they get
a consistent experience with
a box compromised from the get go. It's an integral part of the user experience, they wouldn't feel right without the bloat and the ads.
ascii_field: i must say, always wanted to build
a 'bitslice cpu'
ascii_field: gives it
a chinese 'great leap forward backyard steel furnace' flavour though.
mircea_popescu: what i mean is : currently, the fabs regard
a printer that ruins 1% of the sheets as disastrous.
mircea_popescu: jurov: if it's possible to place 4 such transistors on mm2 then z80 would fit into 20cm2 << this, basically, is my point. 20 sqcm is not really
a big deal. and the number of people who might do it just to play the original Chaos on their pet rock is not negligible.
danielpbarron: the drive popped out as
a result of the fall, and its connecting bracket also came out
a bit; but it's setting new best height now, so all is fine i suppose
ascii_field: (if you have
a mechanical drive connected, that's another matter)
ascii_field: danielpbarron: ought to survive
a fall from airplane. there is nothing shock-sensitive inside.
danielpbarron: so apparently
a pogo can survive
a fall to the floor from about 3 feet while running; on
a related note, not all devices ship with the same length ethernet cable
ascii_field: either stooge or
a direct useful idiot of one
pete_dushenski: but i guess hanging out here trains one's eye after
a while
ascii_field: 'Apps like TextSecure and Silent Text are secure alternatives to SMS messages, while Signal, RedPhone and Silent Phone encrypt voice communications. ' << finally the mask falls off, and we know that
a usg muppet wrote that article.
pete_dushenski: but i guess the usg is just
a marketing machine at this point
ascii_field: to peddle the notion that the sim keys matter for any purpose whatsoever is either the act of
a complete illiterate on the subject, or
a usg stooge.
PeterL: so I'm looking at houses near some of the jobs I'm applying for, I know I really don't want to live inside Detroit, but 15k for
a 4br/2ba house seems tempting
assbot: Gemalto also makes OpenPGP smart cards - I have one. We really need
a OpenPGP v2 that supports multisig; right now I'm trusting Gemalto.
pete_dushenski: if he were
a worthy opponent, it might one day be
a different story
pete_dushenski: but as with nazi case, the tune can change if
a suitable use case is found
thestringpuller: pete_dushenski: well allies and enemies are generally relative. I think La Serenissima creates
a republic where it dictates the scene.
thestringpuller: pete_dushenski: That's
a great question I do not have an answer for.
thestringpuller:
a sci fi novel/movie where humans are unable to have children
PeterL: what's
a children of men?
lobbes: <ben_vulpes> average age of childbirth goes up in america, all sorts of mental disfunctions go up in america. << couldn't this also be ascribed to
a higher birth-rate?
ben_vulpes: danielpbarron: you can google yourself, i'm not actually in
a theological debate here.
PeterL: maybe somebody mistranslated
a time unit somewhere along the way?
danielpbarron: i think by the time of Abraham it had gone down quite
a bit though
ben_vulpes: medicalization of individuality factored out, if the numbers are to believed and aren't
a cultural artifact i'm guessing that increased age of conception is driving some of the increase (if it even exists)
PeterL: You might be thinking of Down's Syndrome, that has
a higher occurrence in older mothers
ben_vulpes: <BingoBoingo> [] decimation> that should be the bar for voting - if you don't have your $185k, you can't vote, because you are literally
a bum << Maybe there should be trophies for certain people who inflicted directly and personally more than that damage on the fiat system without being politicos? << most offensive thing about being born here is how one's effectively born into slavery for others obligations.
thestringpuller: danielpbarron: i may setup
a gentoo machine just to make
a pogo
NewLiberty: CA somewhat decriminalized. Most strip malls have
a dispensary.
danielpbarron: yeah that's why i specified CT; i'd wager it's
a lot less fungible in oklahoma
BingoBoingo: cannabis and silver are largely the same thing monetarily, inflation
a huge problem. Gold less so. Bitcoin far less so.
NewLiberty: But having minted
a fair share of silver, I have some opinions on the use of "dollar" as that paper drek
danielpbarron: and stop trying to teach us new terms; we don't care that you prefer 'xbt' to 'btc' or that
a dollar used to mean silver
NewLiberty: "dollar" is
a specific measure of silver
NewLiberty: But the word is not what is commonly referred to as
a dollar
NewLiberty: He wants to be
a chief scientist, I can help him understand what that entails
NewLiberty: The current proposal is
a software engineering approach to
a science problem
pete_dushenski: ;;later tell asciilifeform could you recommend
a book that would serve as an 'amateur's intro to digital security' ?
assbot: Successfully added
a rating of -1 for NewLiberty with note: He think's
a hard-fork is, and I quote: acceptable for expediency's sake.
pete_dushenski: i just couldn't recall if there was
a line in the sand
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: It seems
a variety of places. It isn't the biggest spike, but it definitely is one.
mike_c: decimation:
http://stampd.io/ << someone made
a silly-con valley-ized deedbot << yeah, and you have to pay for it with.. paypal!
BingoBoingo: lobbes:
A bit wester and still further middle
BingoBoingo: One day I wanted to take the hajj to Florida to watch the spring training games. At the moment though it is
a reminder it will eventually stop being balls cold.
chetty: Spring Training was
a big deal when I was growing up, it amounted to free major league games :)
brendafdez: hah, I linked to the shadow foundation on
a mailing list and
a facebook group recently, but it falls on deaf ears
BingoBoingo: Sounds
a lot like how they covered the rebellion in North St Louis
brendafdez: they love anything that can be portrayed in
a bad light as the shady things that happen in this third world country. Like using bitcoin to avoid selling the usd to the government and then selling the bitcoins in the street
brendafdez: we're meeting now in an hour at
a local 'Subway' and then they are coming with me seeing how people buy and sell bitcoins for stacks of cash, which always amuses them, they love seeing the 'stakcks of cash', which is not uncommon here with the largest denomination bill being 8 USD
chetty: now that would indeed be
a super cool event, I'll buy the lunch if you pull that off
brendafdez: they won't mention it as anything other than
a website from 1993, it's above their head, they only realize it when it's too late. They wouldn't take me srlsly if i show them that xD
chetty: well dead prosecutors are
a bit of
a deterent
chetty: lmao, I get
a whole new set of smiles everytime someone links that one :D
