mats: i talked to a surgeon a few years ago (ive had CTS since 18) and i was told that 50% of people operated on don't experience any change, and of the remaining half that get positive results, half of them see only a mild reduction in pain and a good number (i can't remember) experience a recurrence in symptoms in their lifetime
decimation: right now one must drill a hole in the skull and dress the would each week to prevent infection that could eat your brain

thestringpuller: lol owning 10% of a company that makes no money.
decimation: there would be nothing that would please me more than if I saw some bum with a yahoo ad
decimation: some bum who camps next to the George Washington bridge also has 300,000 'views' per day - that doesn't transform him into a 'profitable business' ☟︎
undata: and a reddit alien plushie
decimation: mats: and what would have if you owned every reddit note? would you have a seat on the board? would you be able to show up at the 'advance publications' headquarters and demand free drinks?

decimation: BingoBoingo: this 'reddit note' thing is hilarious. who wants to own 10% of a company that makes no money?

asciilifeform: which, it turns out, the systemd pushers reflexively defended as a feature. ☟︎
asciilifeform: somebody admits, it appears, that this was actually a bug in systemd
kakobrekla: i thought midas had a permanent touch
asciilifeform: jurov: only a matter of time
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: that was a quote

decimation: heh http://nknetobserver.github.io/ << apprently best Korea uses redhat, or a rebranded variant
thestringpuller: "little malice" sounds cute like a puppy tearing up the pillows
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: or a lot of malice in the case of heartbleed
asciilifeform: the best place to hide a little malice is a gigantic pile of incompetence. ☟︎
decimation: asciilifeform: I suspect more incompetence than malice, but it's still a good point
decimation: yeah it's a good point. there is a vast difference between 'source is open, could read' and 'design is obvious, fits in head'
asciilifeform: decimation: there is a good reason to doubt that a sufficiently gnarly turd can ever be considered 'open'
decimation: asciilifeform: either from ore or paying the ransom required to get intel et. al. to completely open the design for a chipset
assbot: 5 results for 'from ore' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=from+ore
decimation: asciilifeform: there's no way in hell someone could create a 'free and open' laptop like that for less than a few $100 mil
asciilifeform: dignork: nah, the linked board is at least useful for something around the house (it's a generic arm-based microcomputer)
Adlai: could they pick a name that doesn't remind me of mitochondrially transmitted religions?
asciilifeform: (for those unfamiliar with the subject, 'microcode' is best imagined as a kind of 'piano roll' of toggles which get flipped when a particular instruction is encountered by cpu. this in turn actually cranks the ALUs, pipeline stages, all the other familiar components.)
asciilifeform: 'So, sure, it's pure to build without the microcode blob, which means in reality that you're deciding to use the microcode blob *already embedded in the CPU*. And, on many new CPUs, the one that comes with the CPU has issues that mean you won't get past DRAM init. And, if you do get past DRAM init and boot, you've got a CPU that may have subtle errors and corrupt memory.' << this is an interesting and little-known fact
asciilifeform: 'the Management Engine... is a separate microcontroller embedded in the PCH and has a full network stack, has access to DMA and other nasty things. The firmware is signed by Intel and verified at each boot by the microcontroller, and if the firmware signature fails to verify correctly, the x86 cpu will not be allowed to boot... We must get that freed by Intel' << lol!!!
kakobrekla: back out to new \clean" output addresses in a random order, or at random times.
kakobrekla: many users, routes them all through a single mixing address, and dispenses them
kakobrekla: canonical solution to this problem is a mixer that receives \dirty" Bitcoins from
cazalla: http://qntra.net/2014/12/four-bitcoin-based-projects-from-mit-students/ <<< beyond me to gauge whether good or not, perhaps someone *cough* bingoboingo wru *cough* might know better, just a bunch of links really
asciilifeform: 'the BIOS does use coreboot, which includes a binary from Intel, called FSP.' << ahahahaha lol
cazalla: seeing bingoboingo is not around atm, anyone able to lend me their technical expertise on a document?
kakobrekla: i thought for a second it was that other thing that also looks like mac.

mats: "South Korea's Constitutional Court has ruled to disband a minority left-wing party and strip its five members of parliament of their seats after accusing them of pro-North Korea activities that it said violated the basic principles of free democracy." << pregnant with irony, this
asciilifeform: mats: in sk, it is a jailable offense to so much as utter something vaguely positive about nk

decimation: asciilifeform: from a bigger picture, the korean war was a direct consequence of the us failure to crush mao
Vexual: a tranny actually put a turbo in my car
asciilifeform: afaik every word of the history of the two koreas available in the english language, since the first days leading up to the war, is a cheap fabrication.
decimation: it's possible that it could eject matter toward the earth, which could result in a geomagnetic storm in 2-3 days
decimation: in a separate matter, there was an X1 class flare a few hours ago
decimation: Vexual: "X" is a class of solar flare, "G" is a class of geomagnetic storm
decimation: lol http://www.securityweek.com/hackers-used-sophisticated-smb-worm-tool-attack-sony << best korean hackers used phishing, mail attachments, and a lame smb bot

punkman: asciilifeform: punkman: tor is a multi-layered scam << says so on the tin, it's an onion :P
decimation: nah that's a good way to ruin a tranny
Vexual: apprently your not supposed to drive it home with a busted intercooler
asciilifeform: punkman: tor is a multi-layered scam
asciilifeform: there'll be a new! improved! honeypot (almost certainly consisting of a tor 'altcoin' - original with a few knobs turned)
asciilifeform: decimation: there's a saying, 'свято место пусто не бывает' - 'the holy place is never long empty'
decimation: asciilifeform: I doubt there will be a 'day of reckoning' w.r.t. tor. it will just turn off and the derps will move on
punkman: "Our previous plan had been to sit tight and hope nothing happens. Then we realized that was a silly plan when we could do this one instead."
Vexual: i had a tranny work my drft car. promptly borked it and she got cross
Vexual: i sthere a plan?
decimation: rule the whole country directly under martial law until shit stabilizes in a few hundred years
