mircea_popescu: i spent the decade playing homm2 and mm6/7. nevertheless... some people actually cared about everquest and wow and whatnot.
mircea_popescu: 2004 kinda late for dos.
mircea_popescu: did. at the time.
mircea_popescu: people who like games.
mircea_popescu: yeah, but you also don't play.
mircea_popescu: yes.
mircea_popescu: !up ascii_modem
mircea_popescu: so come to ba, have one made.
mircea_popescu: so what happens when two meet ?
mircea_popescu: punkman completely driven crazy with the body image these days. i'm surprised there's even females left at all, sometimes. reasonable expectation last one died cca 2003 over a bulimia-anorexia crisis. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: put a woman naked on a horse, it'll tell you all you need to know about the "empowerment of feminism" and whatnot.
mircea_popescu: yes, i'm big on posture.
mircea_popescu: this is shocking but factual : rarely will you see women carrying themselves like actual people outside of dance school and the slave quarters.
mircea_popescu: cazalla i liked the fact that the only pictures in which she displays good posture, she's wearing "slave" or whatever you'd call it garb.
mircea_popescu: phillipsjk yes, but that's both trivial to fix and in practice long fixed (twofish, threefish, etc). it is in point of fact a VERY promising cypher branch, mostly on the account of its extremely complex schedule
mircea_popescu: (yes, i confess, mp doesn't generally use natural language "as it is", but "as it should be", like any serious autist. it's wonder anything i say's comprehensible to any degree)
mircea_popescu: but surprisingly enough, exists in english.
mircea_popescu: originally, obviously.
mircea_popescu: idiosyncratic
mircea_popescu: (amusingly enough, that says "inkwell" in romanian, phonetically)
mircea_popescu: καλή μέρα
mircea_popescu: o hey.
mircea_popescu: ;;ticker
mircea_popescu: o look at that, actually an english word. cool.
mircea_popescu: i guess "purely political" is not even the best way to state it. purely idiosyncratic.
mircea_popescu: !up phillipsjk
mircea_popescu: etc.
mircea_popescu: and i don't expect a dude to have something meaningful to say because he got a nobel prize, but IN SPITE of getting it.
mircea_popescu: you know, like i don't expect a film to be good because it got 7 oscars. i expect it to suck.
mircea_popescu: i dunno about you, or anyone else. but to me, winning a competition is a discomendation.
mircea_popescu: blowfish has successfully resisted analysis and was thoroughly abandoned. because aes "won a competition" ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: and in other news, http://33.media.tumblr.com/7de75d4ebda90e2d168a79213340fe62/tumblr_n54dwd5MBJ1sr11rlo1_400.gif ☟︎
mircea_popescu: hm. by "worst retarded" i actually mean "least retarded".
mircea_popescu: worst thing about the early 2000s was how ms seemed it was going to live forever through directx ☟︎
mircea_popescu: sure*
mircea_popescu: i am thankful directx fucking died, that's for use.
mircea_popescu: granted this isn't much seeing just how retarded that field is, but anway
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-07-2015#1197875 << having been more or less peripherally aware of gfx software the past coupla decades, i gotta tell you opengl is both come very far and possibly one of the worst retarded solutions ever seen. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: phillipsjk i've not put much design effort into that yet at any rate.
mircea_popescu: that process works better the other way. ("i need to intern for this guy" vs "i need people to intern for me")
mircea_popescu: if you can actually write programs to fix programs - why haven't you yet and why are we still running broken code everywhere.
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel i think the principle of machine-fixed code is broken, but hey. maybe you're in a narrow enough case you can pull it off.
mircea_popescu: in any case : i don't like aes for purely political reasons. it became an apparent schelling point out of absolutely nowhere for no discernible reason. these situations always stink. ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: nope.
mircea_popescu: phillipsjk apparently you can't actually self-voice.
mircea_popescu: !gettrust assbot phillipsjk
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-07-2015#1197840 << this is basically how the libc hack of template files works eh. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: myeah.
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel well there goes that idea.
mircea_popescu: phillipsjk no you don't ? you just pm assbot !up

mircea_popescu: lol
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-07-2015#1197713 << i don't follow. how's the daugther of boob implant woman not able to look the same as mom ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: so go ahead.
mircea_popescu: !up phillipsjk
mircea_popescu: well done, whoever.
mircea_popescu: "At the time of posting this LTC is at $4.25, where as when I went to bed last night it was at $8.80. " << wasn't some twerp going on about how ltc has more volume than btc or some shit ? ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-07-2015#1197622 << anything but a science that renders journos unnecessary! ☝︎
mircea_popescu: "waiter, i ordered soffran rice and what the fuck is this yellow poison looking shit!"

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform http://trilema.com/2014/minigame-smg-august-2014-statement/#comment-114754 << don't you find it a little odd that even on an obscure liuttle game such as eulora, someone does find the time to carefully probe me about aes ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: !up trixbutt
mircea_popescu: minor visual glitch
mircea_popescu: it's sitll going as it is, just the experience filling bar of skills is fucked up
mircea_popescu: myeah.
mircea_popescu: because it's apparently still 1959 and nobody came up with a "machine length" int yet. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: and in other news : eulora is currently being practically re-written, because fucking idiots and their fucktarded assumptions. "oh, nobody could POSSIBLY ever want an int other than ~16!!!!~ bit". as a result, the skill display in game behaves eratically. as a result, all places that use ints and were apparently not upgraded to 32 bit because too much fucking work are now getting redefined as 64 bits.
mircea_popescu: you knoiw you can just do gpg --encrypt --armor -r one -r theother righjt ?

mircea_popescu: diametric you're getting ddos'd again, and apparently it's ever more impressive. you want a filter in front of this thing or what.
mircea_popescu: ;;seen diametric
mircea_popescu: i dun think this is much of a novel point. fundamental point. "be the change you wish to see" etc.
mircea_popescu: this is actually an excellent point - walmart is not a shop, it's a shit circuit.
mircea_popescu: " As Wal-Mart gets the lion’s share of food stamp transfers [EBT cash and food] than this operation amounts to a 19th century Appalachian coal mine with its own company store, with over half of the employees spending most—or even more than—their salary at the Wal-Mart register, literally a captive market and labor force in one."
mircea_popescu: an entire den of fraudsters and con men they got going there, not like phantomcircuit's anyone else than the bitcoinica thief etc.

mircea_popescu: just... you know, go ask reddit what it thinks on reddit, and the power rangers on #power-rangers or wherever the fuck they hang out these days.
mircea_popescu: might as well ask whats his face "bitcoin godfather" about gaming or keiser's ho whatever her name was about "telejournalism"
