shinohai: Isn'
t trinque afk until tomorrow night ?
mircea_popescu: (this is a synthetic romanian word, uses each of the special letters exactly once. it didn'
t exist naturally, but it SOUNDS like it'd be a thing, like "chioara" (one eyed female) or such ; so was defined by contest cca 2008)
mircea_popescu: lobbes there's some very deliberate "we in communism also have coca-cola". because there's no way i'll take them in without their crossing under the yoke, and they dun wanna cross under the yoke (chiefly because they broadly understand that there being no further substance to them, they'll dissolve into nothingness, which is obviously true and also why i won'
t budge).
lobbes: "The Person-to-Person global market opportunity is $16 Trillion. Take advantage of the Mastercard Settlement Network to transfer funds between banks." << All these banks drinking the "Blockchain is the next The Cloud" scamolade. Can'
t tell if driven solely by the marketing-idiocy-cycle or if there is also some deliberate subversion greasing the wheels.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo one doesn'
t help. you gotta mount eight as per alf's magics, i wouldn'
t bother.
mircea_popescu: right. i don'
t recall off hand the phuctor traffic figures, but pretty sure it's not 1mbps sustained over a month ; iirc not even a tenth that. eulora similarily eats in the kbps sustained, and so...
BingoBoingo: Eh, looking more like the price of internet isn'
t being properly levied upon consumers.
diana_coman: lol; those rubbish bins looked very...Romanian but the "no islam" thing didn'
t quite fit, hence Hungary seemed more likely
mircea_popescu: diana_coman possibly he took his own women with this time, so isn'
t stuck depending on pot luck.
phf: asciilifeform: my guess wasn'
t evaluated!
shinohai: If it ain'
t broke, why fix it? (tm)
mircea_popescu: if they don'
t speak it who wants them for a pet anyway.
mircea_popescu: why ? tall, lithe. no tits and mostly absent ass, but hey, can'
t have errything.
mircea_popescu: john smith is jack shit, the west didn'
t hold 4 bn women in 1860.
BingoBoingo: Also it seems the deedbutt payment hasn'
t gone through yet.
mircea_popescu: b) you're not going to charge 1k/mo for any servers, don'
t be ridiculous. you're going to pay 500-2k to buy the server, and then rent it out for the usual 2x the fixed cost.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes a) you're not going to make money renting space as such. this wasn'
t even in the original design, i've nfi why you added it in.
hanbot: i don'
t know what the actual time threshold is tbh. clearly longer than 15 mins tho.
☟︎ trinque: hm, possible it didn'
t get there in time then. I just dispatched it.
trinque: yeah, isn'
t uniform is it. I can change invoice and pay to match withdraw.
trinque: if the bot doesn'
t give an affirmative reply, it didn'
t do anything
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: THeir contact info wouldn'
t hurt. Anyways the trade off is warehousing the meat in Brazil is less expensive while starting a business in HK is a two hour online form. It still would not hurt at all to have a VulpesISP even with a BingoISP
lobbes: I actually didn'
t notice until later; then I thought 'eh not worth worry about'
mircea_popescu: and in other "the only new thing is the history you didn'
t know", female steroid users grow genuine penises where the clit used to be. head and errything. and they don'
t go away.
BingoBoingo: Roughly the same range, and Yeah, I don'
t see reason not too. Should have a bunch more numbers early next week.
mircea_popescu: if i dun have it i can'
t alter the article so they can'
t have to make wallets etc.\
a111: Logged on 2017-10-13 01:54 mircea_popescu: trinque don'
t sweat it, she'll do it when i tell her to, what. tomorrow, monday, whatever.
mircea_popescu: i don'
t expect there's much anyone can do. so far, we gather dataz.
mircea_popescu: local fucktards for instance explained to me "they can'
t receive wires from abroad." i'm like... so got any rostipollo then ?
phf: diana_coman: you can also try ``cu -l /dev/ttyUSB0 -s 115200'' since that doesn'
t take over the terminal AND if it works, you should be able to paste ``strace cu...'' output from which we can figure out what system calls that thing did before touching the device
shinohai: Well how do you expect to get collared, slut, if you don'
t say anything?
diana_coman: on Centos 6.8 (64bits) trying to read fg's output from ttyUSB0 with dd hangs on most occasions (erratically it will work but I haven'
t figured out when exactly); at the same time, a "screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 " works perfectly fine <-- anybody knows what this is about?
phf: asciilifeform: don'
t forget to bring the customary earth in a small baggy from the motherland
phf: diana_coman: right, i guess it doesn'
t have any symbolic value, when there's no underlying concept associated with it
phf: asciilifeform: i wanted to add your mpi to btcbase patches, but realized that it's not a valid vpatch, since it doesn'
t have a genesis. i'll add an exception to mechanisms (right now it just 404's and all kinds of broken, basically), but!
mircea_popescu: anyway. the arguments he presents don'
t work -- travel is much more likely in a country devastated by war than in one stable. in the latter case people feed themselves by tending to their crops ; but if no crops, they feed themselves by... GOING TO THE MARKET.
mircea_popescu: basically, every time he doesn'
t use his own gut feelings, he's tolerably in the vicinty of truth.
mircea_popescu: but whatever, "i can'
t see how people travelled before they had electric cars or why would a wife benefit from the occasional beating"
mircea_popescu: i don'
t credit the "oh, marketing is the only employee with ROI, everyone else just contributes to costs, marketing contributes to revenue". somebody's gotta make the shit you package and sell.
mircea_popescu: this should be taught in "civil class" or w/e they call it in hs. but in any case -- don['
t mary below your station, what.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what is this, are you being an alien. the eyes in your own box don'
t see your mouth in your own box do they ?
mircea_popescu: what i'm saying is that i don;
t know this being part of the design.
mircea_popescu: ianae, maybe there's places where they'll mount your camera opposite if you ask. i wouldn'
t really add it to the disqualifier list.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-19 13:11 asciilifeform:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-19#1726673 << that was what i didn'
t and still don'
t grasp : what exactly can enemy exfiltrate from a boobytrapped ~switch~ ( it ain'
t a firewall, it's a dumb switch) that he cannot get from his upstream tap ??
a111: Logged on 2017-10-19 07:10 mircea_popescu: proper (ie, like power chord, either works or doesn'
t) switch very much on the republican slate. no extant item satisfy this requirement.,
ben_vulpes just had an exciting; apparently closed the flue a bit too soon/didn'
t give the fireplace enough time to self-extinguish and the co detectors went off
mircea_popescu: what math did you do when you decided you don'
t like it ?
mircea_popescu: proper (ie, like power chord, either works or doesn'
t) switch very much on the republican slate. no extant item satisfy this requirement.,
☟︎ a111: Logged on 2017-10-19 04:36 asciilifeform: i don'
t manufacture switches, BingoBoingo , and i have no intention of starting, it isn'
t a device that handles seekrits, and very literally either works or does not -- like mains cord.
mod6: ben_vulpes: seems fine. iirc, and i don'
t have the book in hand at the moment, but knuth outside certain boundaries is suspect.
mod6: i'd have to look at other's results, can'
t recall off the top of my head.
BingoBoingo: Still doesn'
t hurt to put our stuff through a switch on the way to their switch
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> erlehmann: they sat and waited for it to go offline, then published 'groundbreaking paper' << Wouldn'
t hurt to have a Qntra explainer ready for when victory time comes
mircea_popescu: and this dun go for him, either. if you're not about to make #trilema the organizing center of your life, don'
t idle here, it's not for you. read the website logs now and again like all the other nobodies.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform understand though, they're ~already doing it~. usg SIGNALS can'
t hire outside of a pool of snowdens, mannings and reality winners
mircea_popescu: if blue usg can'
t pantsuit the conversation anymore, if the plebs won'
t sit put and eat their seoexpert/nfl combo, what could happen ?
mircea_popescu: what it says, importantly, is not merely that the roosevelt system doesn'
t work ; but that participation is in itself degrading.
mircea_popescu: i have this utterly psychotic delusion that i don'
t personally wish to take more than i should have ; nor less ; and that a general system can be built on these premises. why the fuck would he want for me to have fewer shares than i should have ? what sense does it make, he is going to fuck all the women himself ? with what ? solve all the problems ? etc.
mircea_popescu: the fiat forced mistake is to "o noes, gotta write it down BEFORE". it is forced because fiat world doesn'
t have a forum, ie, can'
t communciate, and as a result there's no such thing as meaningful consent, or negotiation.
mircea_popescu: there are some advantages to having certain people in your equity base. such as that not being idiots, they won'
t vote stupidtly ; and so on.
