mircea_popescu: the conclusion being
that i'm pretty sure
they no longer ~actually manufacture~
the quartz
tuning forklets, but instead just produce a soup of
the
things and
then filter
the functional ones out or some such
shinohai: "Neotibicen pronotalis is
the loudest cicada in North America, and can achieve 108.9 decibels."
shinohai: mircea_popescu: same here, and it looks like alien inception or something when
they do
that 7 yr molting cycle. Damned exoskeletons everywhere.
mircea_popescu: fucking cicadas. sound exactly like fans getting ready
to bite it.
adlai: Framedragger:
ty.
that note is correct, but
the included printout omits it,
thus my confusion.
Framedragger: "Note: Both RNG-TW (Analogue) modules must be present and in working order during power-up, or FUCKGOATS will remain in a SAD state (steady RED lamp.) When performing basic
tests, start with a powered FUCKGOATS, with BOTH RNG-TW (Analogue) modules installed. "
adlai: following
the instructions
to
the letter results in a fully-sad FG until
the final stage
adlai: fwiw
this is not 'as instructed',
the instructions say
to remove both,
then add one, switch it across, and
then add
the second
adlai: aha, i can fool it: if a module is removed while it barfs,
then it keeps barfing as half-sad
Framedragger: were both of
them present during power-up? i
think
the idea is
to remove
them once it's powered up.
then it'd be half duty cycle SAD. (haven't
tested myself yet
tho)
adlai: it should be half-sad, according
to
the vendor docs
adlai: in other news,
this FG unit appears fully sad (no
tty output) unless /both/ modules are attached
adlai: i'm specifically
thinking about
the implants
that require illumination, looks like
this one could be
trivially foiled (literally)
adlai: re:RAGEMASTER, couldn't such an implant be mitigated by shielding
the cable? (and destroying after use, in case it 'remembers')
shinohai wonders if he should build a Russian-style palace with
tit-shaped domes .....
adlai: Framedragger: it actually rained yesterday, but probably
the last rain before fall
shinohai: adlai gets an ungulate shipped
to Israel! >.>
jhvh1: shinohai:
The operation succeeded.
shinohai: !~later
tell jurov Could you have a peek at my order #14214 when you haz
time plz?
mircea_popescu: anyway,
twennybux was iirc
the international price of
the alley blowjob. so...
shinohai: Otherwise
there would be more:
shinohai: As I lamented
to mircea_popescu
the other day
though, it is difficult
to get
them
to see
the value in Bitcoin (cam/twithos)
shinohai: Framedragger: In my experience
they nearly all
tits with
the right motivation :D
mircea_popescu: hm. i suspect
there's something amiss with his site. anyway.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-03 05:15 mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes one's
the
testnet iirc
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron how do i get stuff from your blog
that's older
than feb ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: ("oh but mp, we get
to decide when logic applies and when it doesn't!" "riight...")
mircea_popescu: (this may sound like it's a joke. it is not a joke. review your standard issue systems design manual (don't
tell me
they forgot
to issue you one!))
mircea_popescu: other approaches are more extreme if
they focus on limbs.
mircea_popescu: this is
the most middling of approaches, since it has
to do with her cunt.
Framedragger: absolutely, question is if
there's any middle ground, i mean, less extreme approaches (extreme by my standards of course)
mircea_popescu: by
the
time she's 18 she ~absolutely~ must be working at a profit. no matter
the fuck what.
mircea_popescu: offspring gotta become capable
to fend for self,
that's
the point and
the definition of parenthood.
mircea_popescu: but
the solution is relatively simple anyway. "honey, you're not going
to """college""", you're going
to either riadh or beijing, and if by
the
time you're 20 you're not either married or coming back with a million you're not my daughter.
Framedragger: anyway it's a fucking
trend. 'professors' jacking off on fucktrumpianism in "unis"
Framedragger: i can ask but i can also defer
this honourable query
to mr. shinohai (i dont know her personally)
ben_vulpes: the scheme/c seam is as real as
the emacs/linux seam
shinohai actually still has a bitcoind with shiva baked in on a lab lappy but is still learning
the schema bits ...
ben_vulpes: nobody's playing with
the
tests either!
ben_vulpes: shiva might be a better
tool for wiggling random code paths anyways
a111: Logged on 2017-04-03 03:46 ben_vulpes: i wonder if
there's some proportional relationship between setup/distribution costs and size of
target niches
ben_vulpes: currently attempting
to reason about differences between
targets bitcoind and
test_bitcoin
ben_vulpes: complains about inabilty
to find openssl/ec.h
ben_vulpes: anyways, hey asciilifeform have you ever built
the
trb
test
target?
ben_vulpes: i wonder if
there's some proportional relationship between setup/distribution costs and size of
target niches
☟︎ ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: gotta printer
to recommend?
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron
that's nice, but
the whole "i quit lawyering
to write full
time" narrative didn't work out.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-02 22:22 mircea_popescu: i very much doubt it.
the
time for unsolicited manuscripts was sometime in between
the summer of 90something and
the autumn of
the same 90something. nobody can
tell you precisely when, but in any case "i made a book" is precisely
the same as "i made a used condom"
a111: Logged on 2017-04-02 22:14 phf: i suspect saifedean is pitching various audiences
to create a buzz for his upcoming book, because
the way he opened seemed like a cold call. "normies" "bezzle
this bezzle
that" every phrase felt like it was lifted from a "wake up sheeple" video with
that matrix soundtrack
