mircea_popescu: slowly but surely a republican ada style manual is shaping up (and through the exact http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-23#1865304 process, at that!) ☝︎☟︎☟︎

mircea_popescu: diana_coman re http://ossasepia.com/2018/10/18/smg-comms-chapter-3-packing-serpent/#selection-85.346-85.466 wouldn't it be better to have a single style for this ?

mircea_popescu: "While the FG shop has been closed for quite some time already," asciilifeform think we should bake a new set ? ☟︎

mircea_popescu: neat!

mircea_popescu: entirely nonfeature.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-22#1865206 << yes. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: sit there try to come up with imaginatioins of future people seems a waste of your time.

mircea_popescu: every time we notice same answer is given to repeated question, we note it down. before, what's the use ? ☟︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-23#1865276 << don't waste your time with that, let it emerge naturally. ☝︎☟︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-23#1865268 << they aren't ; but bad peer set can produce it also, and often enough does. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: money kinda cancelled, but yeah

mircea_popescu: yeah, no, those don't really happen anymore. even 1s are rare(r).

mircea_popescu: but the former happens all the time, cuz inexpensive relay failure

mircea_popescu: cuz the latter indeed doesn't happen, expensive mienr failuire

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform to be clear, is the idea "node locked on alt chain while main chain goes on a lot of blocks" or "node on a lengthy orphan chain" ? ☟︎

mircea_popescu: more like 100

mircea_popescu: lots of things give this "make sure you have same blocks". ☟︎

mircea_popescu: you know, ye olde fashioned sync mechanism.

mircea_popescu: and other things.

mircea_popescu: i can't imagine it being useful for current.

mircea_popescu: certainly. in general speaking, trbi will prolly not use any of the current trb/prb legacy common code

mircea_popescu: now or in the future ?

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not like anyone has to press on it, as per that discussion.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform can't hurt anything.

mircea_popescu: ha-HA!

mircea_popescu: billymg that'd prolly be useful. see hanbot 's tree.

mircea_popescu: no waffle shops there then ?

mircea_popescu: he'd know.

mircea_popescu: hahaha

mircea_popescu: heh.

mircea_popescu: speaking of which, finally got off ass made new header. jesus christ this thing.

mircea_popescu: if you look into the templarte, you'll see it's very flat, as in, most of the non-variable content is quoted literals.

mircea_popescu: and commenrts and etc

mircea_popescu: this is true.

mircea_popescu: cuz what's to change, really.

mircea_popescu: and it's all the customizing anyone can take, im sure.

mircea_popescu: anyway, the point re "redesign" is sound. i comissioned the theme 10 years ago, never really changed it. rolling daily headers came kinda midway, but it literally is one line.

mircea_popescu: i don't see that it does ; nor is ram expensive enough to justify work.

mircea_popescu: if one were to take this tack, couldn't even turn on computer, gotta fix desk first to be even smoother.

mircea_popescu: trilema ran for a decade on a lamp stack to no serious detriment.

mircea_popescu: honestly php seems a problem that least needs fixing right now.

mircea_popescu: nice!

mircea_popescu: heh

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo "unregistered foreign influence agent" being the specialist term.

mircea_popescu: bare ip addressing huh ? ☟︎

mircea_popescu: omg, done with log ? sweet.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-22#1864631 << this thing... ☝︎

mircea_popescu: which is the point here.

mircea_popescu: yes, but with correct airflow it's self-cleanning.

mircea_popescu: (this wouldn't be a very high standard clean room, but 80s level tech quite achievable. whole shtick is to have the controlled airlflow, pressurizing the room.)

mircea_popescu: but with current tech, and given airplant already there, making a den into a clean room is entirely hobby budget.

mircea_popescu: if you didn't have that infrastructure, you might balk at buying it just for a hobby.

mircea_popescu: i mean, since you have the pumping infrastructure, costs comparatively little to isolate one room and do w/e in there, microscopy.

mircea_popescu: don't let them in, problem solved.

mircea_popescu: how would ac unit solve the problem of unwashed co-dweller ? seems the application for that is a lock rather.

mircea_popescu: except if he opens a door ?

mircea_popescu: i don't get it, this is different with miniunits ?

mircea_popescu: "but mp, why would anyone want that!!" "i dunno, same reason anyone would want a large icebox" "inconceivabru. the global market for cars is maybe 12 units."

mircea_popescu: Mocky the other humongo advantage of getting a central air plant instead of the piddly shits is that THEN you can get clean room at no extra cost.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-22#1864618 << right. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: feels kinda like having the perfect joke for a set-up and then... not using it.

mircea_popescu: it's almost sad to waste the opportunity, you know ?

mircea_popescu: that's the thing, dry air is SO the perfecvt appliocation here.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not there. they don't even have moths, there.

mircea_popescu: perfect way to ruin 500k in gear, by "forgetting" about 50 bucks maintenance.

mircea_popescu: there is that.

mircea_popescu: sad.

mircea_popescu: right. coo.

mircea_popescu: cuz what the fuck maintenance does it need, jaysus. they come encapsulated, like modern engines.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is so fucking dumb omg. central air costs 2x to install and 0.5x to run for the lifetime of the thing. A DEGREE OF MAGNITUDE SAVINGS

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-21#1864578 << wait, is this in reference to the meet-up things ? ☝︎

mircea_popescu: do their malls also have ten bn wallmouinted units ?

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-21#1864571 << this is so fucking stupid, ftr. i can't conceive why one wouldn't put in central air if needs air conditionning. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: i think now we've officially done everything.

mircea_popescu: jesus christ he's bought a room from a nigerian prince.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-21#1864567 << aaahahahahaha ☝︎

mircea_popescu: i meant what he's been telling.

mircea_popescu: who ?

mircea_popescu: no i mean, why "mi mismo" rather than "yo mismo"

mircea_popescu: especially there, apparently, from the tales.

mircea_popescu: you don't want to meet people over a hundred anyway

mircea_popescu: ah don't be silly, use the dime. ☟︎

mircea_popescu: hm ?

mircea_popescu: Mocky i'm too lazy to type more digits.

mircea_popescu: !!pay Mocky 0.1

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-21#1864561 << mi mismo. don't ask why, it doesn't make anymore sense if explained, either. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-20#1864552 << i expect waste of time ; but in the interest of crossing all bitcoin embassies off the list... ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-20#1864551 << how much do you need for that ? ☝︎

mircea_popescu: "repaired".

mircea_popescu: well apparently i can't find it anymore, but anyway, ac unit 100% filled with styrofoam. was pretty rich.

mircea_popescu: Mocky you ever saw my horror ac pics from argentina ?

mircea_popescu: the pantsuited hilarity herself both knew and said as much, their entire line during elections is "this pays better". and their constant fretful midging on their own "sikrit" comms was all about hiow "apparently people don't care being paid to be stupid nets them slightly more than what they could get on own not being stupid".

mircea_popescu: not like anyone genuninely believes i nthe crap.

mircea_popescu: all the redditards are doing that WHILE AT WORK. if the govt didn't pay peons to blue, whod the fuck would ?

mircea_popescu: why the fuck do you think the hot air circus even exists?

mircea_popescu: he's rehauling the "obamacare" health bs. which he was fucking voted in to do. snipping all sorts of blue nonsense in the paybook, including surgery for disphorists. ☟︎

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not rumor afaik.

mircea_popescu: a different kind -- impersonal, they don't want to "Escape to there", but still.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes.

mircea_popescu: shut the shit down.
