asciilifeform: 'inflation doesn't exist. if exists, doesn't matter. and fuckyou for asking'

asciilifeform: in related newz, i sometimes go to a 'dry cleaner' shop. their price, unchanged for a decade+, has gone up 50%. it was actually part of the chain's name, and they have to put garbage bags over the neon signs...

asciilifeform: some time this decade.

asciilifeform: i bet they ~will~, but only when the words appear on their - final - electric bill.

asciilifeform: mr b is probably closest thing southern europe has to a 'lizard'

asciilifeform answered that one...

asciilifeform: but without any good reason to

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i think he plays a role similar to what hanbot once did on tardstalk

asciilifeform: doesn't seem to have much positive to say re: the folks therein

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: doubt it. he's switched 'discuses' a couplea times in the past few yrs, it looks like

asciilifeform: public ed?

asciilifeform: gravity wells ?

asciilifeform: like the excavation of aristotle in the old days

asciilifeform: trinque: it is one of those things that has to be done.

asciilifeform: trinque: i've spent years trying to pull naggum, uncle al schwartz, et al out of the landfill

asciilifeform: but there once was this notion.

asciilifeform also doubts

asciilifeform: or iprogrammacy tomorrow

asciilifeform: sorta like illiteracy today

asciilifeform: why does b-a search have to not be grep ?

asciilifeform: mike_c: good busy or bad busy

asciilifeform: danielpbarron: added mine, for what it's worth

asciilifeform: after.

asciilifeform does not expect anyone here to do this.

asciilifeform convinced, but it took many years of actually working through the maths

asciilifeform recalls the ordeal of convincing mircea_popescu that al schwartz isn't a 'timecube'

asciilifeform: no new essays for some years though

asciilifeform: http://www.mazepath.com/uncleal << www still up!

asciilifeform: 1990-2004 or so

asciilifeform: funkenstein_: he was all over sci.* a decade+ ago

asciilifeform: and while you're here, bring penny and anybody else still alive from mensa.talk.misc

asciilifeform: come visit us, uncle al! we'll dine on adelberger's roasted ballsack and wash it down with lagavulin !

asciilifeform: ferfuxxsake.

asciilifeform: or this thread! ☟︎

asciilifeform: or gabriel_laddel going over his dozen favourite al essays

asciilifeform: definitely it.

asciilifeform: somebody oughta send him a link with b-a search string of his name, or whatnot

asciilifeform sick of being 2nd-most-lines ☟︎

asciilifeform: i guess his isp finally stopped carrying usenet..

asciilifeform: every 15 min. or so, all day...

asciilifeform: to apply his futile flamethrower

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: he's a compulsive ant-stomper. went where the enviro-whiners congregate

asciilifeform: it

asciilifeform digs in log

asciilifeform: it wasn't reddit

asciilifeform: even so.

asciilifeform: ah hm.

asciilifeform: xtal

asciilifeform: ^ not including pcb, battery holder, etc

asciilifeform: like pogo..

asciilifeform: (than earlier link)

asciilifeform: and costs 18x less, l0l

asciilifeform: sram could be useful, to keep 'last seeds' in or whatnot. but entirely luxury.

asciilifeform: where do these little modules go? toasters? time bombs in afghan ?

asciilifeform: clearly ~somebody~ isn't eager to use ntp for everything.

asciilifeform: they are produced, and apparently sold, in vast quantities.

asciilifeform: what i wonder is where these are typically used.

asciilifeform: (plus battery)

asciilifeform: ~88 cent

asciilifeform: decimation: http://www.ebay.com/itm/High-Quality-IIC-Module-Real-Time-Clock-Memory-Module-For-Arduino-DS3231-AT24C32-/400932997447 << also temp-compensated ?

asciilifeform: might be time to attempt persuading him to visit, again.

asciilifeform: incidentally, for anyone who missed, gabriel_laddel found that schwartz is not only alive but cranking out nonstop commentary re: everything, largely on some godforsaken redditron

asciilifeform: 'Anyway, it is my considered opinion (along with, I wager, most everyone else's) that positively the ONLY way that's getting show to be inconsistent is by some intoxicated kids during having sex or somesuch. Everything else was tried to death.' (from mircea_popescu's www) <<<< 'ftl drive will be discovered by an ee student on the verge of flunking, designing stero amps.' (al schwartz)

asciilifeform adds to list

asciilifeform: haven't seen, no

asciilifeform: obvious mental association

asciilifeform: sorta like an old military hospital

asciilifeform: didn't see alive, no. but who hasn't seen photos.

asciilifeform: them.

asciilifeform: (twist: rewrite orwell's '1984' where 'minilove' is actually a dour and heavily bureaucratized network of official brothels.)

asciilifeform: probably not too far off!

asciilifeform: something about it pisses off certain types

asciilifeform: probably even now

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: y'know, all kinds of folks spent whole lives 'lala i can't hear you' to cantor's diagonal.

asciilifeform: a maths prof informed me that until recently, it was customary to answer their letters. but not any more.

asciilifeform: and there are still legions of crackpots trying to prove ftl with what they studied in school.
