asciilifeform heard much the same rhythm near $hotel, professional 'protest' derps dropped by bus and marched around to it

asciilifeform: very familiar.

asciilifeform: those drums in the background

asciilifeform: a few wks ago.

asciilifeform: re: rt: https://youtu.be/Q8o9KBGAp70?t=30s << apparently it happened.

asciilifeform: national wankatron

asciilifeform: same as jp re: kuril islands.

asciilifeform: 4" 30' commented re: falklandswank

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: did it happen ?

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: https://youtu.be/B1TI7aqgfyk?t=2m2s << putin promised ar oil&gas exploration of 'largest deposit in south america', war machines incl. fighter jets, and - in the segment linked, to jurov's certain delight - a sp. lang. version of 'rt'.

asciilifeform: afaik most of what is flying, from that period, is 'cheating' with modern parts

asciilifeform: *benjies

asciilifeform wonders if it was paid in bejies or coke

asciilifeform: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKbV4sSPHvc << claims it was -all- sold for 50kusd.

asciilifeform: http://www.solomontimes.com/news/removal-of-wwii-relics-in-solomons/967

asciilifeform: ballale island, supposedly.

asciilifeform: if comments are to be believed, is on some godforsakenisland

asciilifeform: ^ but reminiscent of our 'open source' archaeological misadventures.

asciilifeform: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5MSqrK5Tbo << unrelated

asciilifeform: can we get him in wot ?

asciilifeform: l0l herr meowmix with a cloak at last

asciilifeform: <felipelalli> Sorry if this is old, but did you guys see that? https://github.com/gavinandresen/bitcoin-git/commit/5f46da29fd02fd2a8a787286fd6a56f680073770 << axe-time, sword-time, wind-time, wolf-time...

asciilifeform: you could probably smelt aluminum in there and nobody'd notice.

asciilifeform: though, i did see some warehousy run-down boxes begging for habitation

asciilifeform: aha yeah.

asciilifeform: let me guess - can get 20 of them, and move around ?

asciilifeform: why

asciilifeform lolz at mircea_popescu having moved into a flat, just as asciilifeform moved out of one

asciilifeform: <mircea_popescu> wtf do these people eat. << kimchi?

asciilifeform: <decimation> asciilifeform: is there a gpg keyserver that just holds pubkeys, dumps on request? << the sks servs dump, but in this mega-blob format where you get ~25MB of continuous gpg binary packet

asciilifeform: it.

asciilifeform: mercado san telmo ?

asciilifeform: https://www.google.com/maps/@-34.619592,-58.372561,3a,90y,343.38h,88.95t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sQcHu0kFpMZuYQ1vQpk7Jag!2e0!6m1!1e1 << that one

asciilifeform: scam

asciilifeform often experiences mindfuck in u.s. (and argentinian!) 'antique' shops on account of recognizing various objects (razors, furniture, bakelite phones, kitchen junk, etc.) from his childhood (which took place in a technologically and crapflationarily-behind by three or four decades part of the globe)

asciilifeform: Adlai: who is old? fella with grey in his beard? or someone who can do arithmetic with a pen? or, or ?

asciilifeform: 'if i did not see as far as others, it is because midgets stood on my shoulders' (tm)

asciilifeform: if i ever were to learn what - i promise to say

asciilifeform: spittoon theorem.

asciilifeform: turns out.

asciilifeform: l0l

asciilifeform: could let it run, even

asciilifeform: because, it seems that in the course of this opera, we are setting up one sks key server

asciilifeform: aha

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: didja say at one point you had a keyserver going ?

asciilifeform: censored?

asciilifeform: ^ not readable

asciilifeform reading docs, because this is unbelievable

asciilifeform: how a turd is sausage.

asciilifeform: the docs suggest otherwise (mega-l0l, yes)

asciilifeform: and then what

asciilifeform: this sucks -in-, no ?

asciilifeform: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/110110/list-all-gpg-pgp-keys-of-a-local-sks-key-server << other folks also pissed

asciilifeform is floored by the sheer retardation of the sks thing

asciilifeform: gpgsplit (standard util) will cut'em but you end up with -all- packets sawed apart (signatures, email addrs, etc. floating around as separate flotsam and no longer agglomerated into pubkeys as customary)

asciilifeform: http://code.google.com/r/google-sks-keyserver-hl1/source/browse/sks_build.sh?name=1.1.1&r=7f1cc4b1637ef119ba1f81afee0496c232bc2e10 << no such luck

asciilifeform: no deep secret.

asciilifeform: https://keyserver.mattrude.com/dump/current << l0l, apparently there is a real-time one.

asciilifeform: anyone knows the secret ?

asciilifeform: and i'm a lamer, and don't know about it

asciilifeform: i keep thinking gpg has the key slicer functionality built in somewhere

asciilifeform: or am i missing something

asciilifeform: www end is how we read the output

asciilifeform: (by now mircea_popescu probably read the src and knows, approximately, how it works)

asciilifeform: can house 1,001 other things there

asciilifeform: it really doesn't need the whole box to itself!

asciilifeform: l0l

asciilifeform: (uploaded sausage last night)

asciilifeform: if you wanna do the sausage slicing, feel free to start. otherwise it'll have to wait a little.

asciilifeform: was reusing 'k'

asciilifeform: something that ran on pNohes, i recall.

asciilifeform: warned how? warning shot with nanocoin tx'ed out ?

asciilifeform: it looked like a buncha derps coin vanishing into black hole.

asciilifeform: or wait, this was already done long ago.

asciilifeform idly wonders what a 'phuctor' for ecdsa/btc would look like

asciilifeform does not do much wwwtronics

asciilifeform: go ahead, add it in. i forget how.

asciilifeform: enjoy, l0l

asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu http://nosuchlabs.com/stats << here you go, phixed

asciilifeform: (yes, would add something to fuel cost. cry a river.) ☟︎

asciilifeform: a fixed pod would make more sense as emergency generator

asciilifeform: davout: what i find odd is that the modern machines have retractable windmills. retraction gear could fail.

asciilifeform: (see 2' 27" mark )

asciilifeform: re: old thread with mats: the heads really do fly off: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bV-5svC6okQ

asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu you gotta restart it for the changes to take. you can also make a spare copy of it to run locally, it is simple enough.

asciilifeform: davout: these were sop even in the days of airships: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b2/ZeppelinLZ127b.jpg << graf zeppelin. notice the windmill in middle-right of photo. powered radio room.

asciilifeform: hunting zoo animals.

asciilifeform: l0l

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ip ?

asciilifeform: wtf would anybody pay for this

asciilifeform: what does a paid account get you ?

asciilifeform: and certain folks who imagine that they could suck that teat while doing $theirthing instead of penning treatises re: checking privilege etc. - envy academics

asciilifeform: the academia racket does create a superficial chumpatronic appearance that some folks are 'paid to think'

asciilifeform: (who needs 'airbus' if can do this!)

asciilifeform: it has same merit as 'i would like to fly to buenos aires on farts'

asciilifeform: for the record, when i first encountered green ('07 ?) i definitely had sympathy for the 'someone ought to pay me to think, fuck the world' thing, until i figure out what she intended to 'think' -about-

asciilifeform: aha.

asciilifeform: partly because, for a serious crackpot, to avoid going entirely off the rails, it is helpful to know what the rails look like.

asciilifeform has been collecting folks like green for a long, long time

asciilifeform: somehow its eeprom (yes) got erased.
