a world of bitcoin?"
TheNewDeal: apparently
a line of text at the top of
a file
trinque: seems like with
a well-thought-out schema this is
a trivial sql query
mike_c: asciilifeform: the answer was it ran all night and didn't do
a damn thing.
trinque: in terms of
a programming environment, SQL dominates this "wad of json" business
trinque: I'm starting to itch for
a sqlite+deturdolatedbitcoind experiment
mod6: we want to get this thing running on openbsd, but in the 5 minutes i looked at it, iirc there was
a database version change and maybe another thing or two that needed to change. can't recall off the bat.
mod6: asciilifeform: hey, does your build script build the R.I. on obsd? (haven't had
a chance to try it yet)

a friend who runs

a buncha times when not cleanly terminating bitcoind << me too, me too.
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> asciilifeform fun fact : 50% of america dreams of but doesn't own and can't afford
a laptop. << tablets, "smartphones"
TomServo: pretty cool. Is that
a custom box?
kakobrekla: here alu foil is suspended in
a magnetic field and acts as
a coil with huge surface
kakobrekla: in
a normal speaker you have
a coil suspended in magnetic field and that moves the (small) cone with terrible side effects
kakobrekla: yeah, almost 100 years old invention -
a ribbon twitter, in open baffle
TomServo: kakobrekla: is it emitting light or is that
a reflection?
mircea_popescu: anyway, if i end up winning that thing it'll make
a pretty great story. enough for an autobiography at any rate.

a certain height in their chain?

a different direction, but the nation chose another leader."
mircea_popescu: by next year it's going to be completely gone, and the muppets ready to be sent against
a wall again.
mircea_popescu: all that article needed was
a thick red "Idiot who was going to make the first best and greatest election website. He failed."
mircea_popescu: al gore, after being
a total muppet, did he go commit sepukku quietly somewhere ? nope, still there, still doing substantiall the same thing. romney, after his beyond ludicrous failure with his "super duper website' thigee, did he quit ? nope... still there.
mircea_popescu: at least before getting
a fucking alternative up and running. like the "white" walls that are just about puke gray.
assbot: You rated user felipelalli on 21-Jan-2015, with
a rating of -1, and supplied these additional notes: has
a very strange idea of when it's time to talk..
☟︎☟︎ thestringpuller: Except when someone who doesn't deserve money wins, and then you find them in
a ditch somewhere with 5 needles in there arm and
a crack pipe in their mouth.
thestringpuller: "I wrote Facebook in the course of
a few weeks," said Mark Zuckerberg. The site now "worth" billions, concludes socialisms last stand against its inevitable erosion from humanity.

a gribble fork. gribble is supybot, and i dun think kakobreklaa pythons much. i dun actually recall what it was derived from tho.

a problem, little to do about it because "must have lusers on the internet"

a fork" <<< they seem to have the same problem in -dev
mats: i think so, slush says something incomprehensible about
a fork
nubbins`: do the chinese guys have
a github?
nubbins`: "we know it won't solve the problem, but
a huge FUCK YOU to our customers will discourage competitors from messing with us again"
mats: " we're aware that this won't stop Chinese to copy our product, but this step gives
a sign that we're not happy with it. This is more about
a moral urge to their customers."
phillipsjk: Wikipedia says ntb may be
a "net-top-box"?

a basic FTDI adapter you've got hooked up to it? i'll take those pinouts if you've got
a !search query handy

a pile of boxes"
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I honestly at first though cazalla was making too much of this until... Rozal fabircated theft allegations against cazalla, which he would later confess to only when caught in
a lie.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Barrel is almost always the or
a limiting factor
BingoBoingo: Here there tends to be
a divide amongst neighborhoods capable of basements and undermined areas where basement might lead to extra unfinished floorspace.
mod6: it'll need some clean up perhaps... but if anyone wants to give that
a shot... i had success with that, about 3 times just now
BingoBoingo: Ah, that is less common. Sounds like
a fad riding
a postwar technology trend
Rozal: I use otc for small trades, and haven't had
a single bad trade. I think I'll be alright
BingoBoingo: Saying one's business is unaffected though is almost always
a tacit admission one's business prospects have been affected.

decimation: just because one edits videos on
a computer doesn't the same hardware must also be used to surf the web
BingoBoingo: For music there are dedicated machines. Just... when composing writing to staff paper analogue and playing back is
a huge timesaver when getting the headmusic out.

a dedicated machine ought to handle both of those functions
mike_c: lol. the "other" foundation also had
a 0.5.3.1 release
decimation: re: autoconf << horrible. whoever thought it was
a good idea to write 'magic autoconfigure' in 'm4' ought to be negrated

a champ.
mike_c:
a few of the gpg lines had an extraneous dash in them that was causing error
assbot: Logged on 20-08-2014 06:37:37; asciilifeform: soviet scientist declares, 'we've invented
a shit-to-food converter.' 'does it work?' 'sorta. spreading on bread: worlks!!11! eating - not quite yet.'
