mod6: it actually doesn't take long to set it up at all. but i need every spare minute possible for V atm. but when I have a few spare cycles, I'll get that going. at least I have a box for it now.
diana_coman: mod6, testing is still in the future of eulora mostly ; sadly; and I get what you say there: I wouldn't spend the time now to set the client up if it wasn't already there and ready to be left on its own for days at a time
mod6: but, i'll see about getting that new client setup. i kinda want to use foxybot to mine stuff for me.
mod6: diana_coman: well, i've got a box. my main focus has been getting these V changes put in. and pretty much think that's complete, but got a ton of testing in front of me.
mircea_popescu: mod6 it's not even "34 C". it's that the air is so moist, getting this to 24 is about 3x the joules it'd take you to get it to 24 in a sane climate.
diana_coman: mod6, fighting the planeshift jungle mainly; so Foxy gets to roam eulora mostly; did you ever get to set the client up ?
mircea_popescu: not really. i don't think it ever gets under 15
mod6: <+diana_coman> mod6, it was actually quite decent << right on. how've you been lately? how's eulorian things?
mod6: Batten down the hatches.
mod6: Wow. Tomorrow is supposed to be 34 deg. C.
mod6: In the summer, does it cool off quite a bit at night though?
mircea_popescu: ya prolly best time
mod6: aha. the autumn in .ar is pretty plesant though.
mircea_popescu: summers are humid though, my ac is literally pouring out a faucet.
mod6: *nod* it is fairly warm there. it certainly isn't like where I'm at. I mean, it's less extreme. Here it gets really hot and humid in the summer, and extra cold in the winter.
mircea_popescu: ar is not really tropical though
mod6: This one site says that there is amazing big game hunting in .ar: cougar, white-tail deer, "brocket" deer, and 'peccary'.
mod6: Yeah, no idea what they might have as far as game down in that region. Aside from like snakes. That's what I think of. Snakes.
mod6: I remember it being like a greasy chicken type thing. Even had some dark meat in there.
mircea_popescu: mod6 well if you mean north as in "past artic circle" then i mean south as in "past tropics"
mod6: When I was out west, most of the deer were "mule-deer" much smaller than their northern conterparts. But there were wild-boar... so I guess I guy could have his pick from jack-rabbits or boar, or mule-deer. *shrug*
mod6: Which can be pretty big I suppose. I had it once. Was pretty tasty.
mod6: I suppose there are alyways things to hunt. Just not quite as large of game maybe? Although in the south east, they love, for instance, alligator.
mircea_popescu: anyway, yeah, the north is not particularily unfriendly food wise. it's just cold. meanwhile the south utterly sucks for food.
mod6: lol! and may the gods make me swift.
mircea_popescu: maybe in another life you come as the caribou!
mod6: I would like that kinda thing I think. Maybe in another life.
mod6: Only like 7 families remain. Most of them live off of moose & caribu I would guess. Fish. etc.
mircea_popescu: i don't expect the whole "not for people" libertard thing will last.
mod6: I was watching this recent show about this part of alaska that's now been deemed only for wild-life. It's this huge area in the artic circle. Some people still live there though, as they were granfathered in.
mircea_popescu: chet actually did that in her alaskan youth.
mircea_popescu: not really same thing as pig
mod6: If shoot a moose or slaugher a pig, or whatever, gotta know how to take it apart and preserve the meat. Basic.
mircea_popescu: mod6 nothing you can't learn in a week. provided of course there's whom to learn from.
mod6: i totally missed out on that.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman it's not terrible. mungiu &co.
mircea_popescu: when i was a kid ~every male was supposed to be able to do this.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, I missed that it seems
mircea_popescu: mod6 pretty much 20th century ro traditional pig slaughter.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman did you see that "amintiri din epoca de aur" antology ? there's a segment there re apartment gassing of pig.
mod6: if that doesn't do it, well then fuck me.
mircea_popescu: "and then after i had threw them at the ugly mothers of my enemies"
mod6: then after that I used a pair of metal cutting scissors and cut them in to very small pieces.
mod6: then after that I blow-torched 'em.
mod6: but then after that, i scrubbed them all with very corase sand paper.
mod6: so to the tune of boiling in tomato sauce... I did this.
mod6: lol, these people think i'm nuts. they're like, "mod6, how much do you want? quarter pound?." i'm like waving it in. "gimme the whole thing."
mircea_popescu: actually i was speaking of the pasta in tomato sauce with minced meat dish, but nevertheless :D
mod6: Oh, speaking of cured meats... I hit up the deli again today and picked up a bunch of different salami.
mod6: I'm starting a huge testing phase as we speak. I thought it was worth the effort to /try/ get it working for others.
Reuel: but I can't wait to boil disks in tomato juice
mod6: Despite all of the recent discussion around multiple roots... I was able to get that working in the forthcoming version.
Reuel: oh yeah I read that before but had no practical use for it as yet, liked it though
Reuel: ah yeah there's some security risks ofcourse
mircea_popescu: if you end up losing connection a lot better fix your bouncer set-up than automate your identity
Reuel: well I have to copy paste he OTP, run cmd line stuff, etc, just curious how many here automated the process
Reuel: Ignore my test, also, have you guys automated the login process with the OTP etc?
mircea_popescu: the half hour thing is for noobs only.
mircea_popescu: eh they couch surf anyway
pete_dushenski: it's not that the rooms are even all that similar, just that you gotta subtly prime the coming nationslism every way possible
pete_dushenski: in other lines between the lines, even the lefty design pubs are finding it fashionable to besmirch globalism : https://www.fastcodesign.com/3067578/exposure/the-monotony-of-globalism-32-cities-32-identical-hotel-rooms
pete_dushenski: not that exciting, really. just thought the dude's bio was lulzy
pete_dushenski: simonpenner: same one. sectioon 7 relating to biometric entry-exit tracking was just getting a bit of traction on the second go-around
simonpenner: pete_dushenski: is that this visa denial one or is there another one now?
pete_dushenski was reading up on trump's new eo for entry-exit
pete_dushenski: a guest on most major news media, profiled in several top print publications, and published broadly on the topic of consumer loyalty."
pete_dushenski: in less acute instincts, this has to be the lousiest author bio i've seen in a while : "Gary Leff is one of the foremost experts in the field of miles, points, and frequent business travel - a topic he has covered since 2002. Co-founder of frequent flyer community Milepoint.com, emcee of the Freddie Awards, and named one of the "World's Top Travel Experts" byConde' Nast Traveler (2010-Present) Gary has been
pete_dushenski: heh the survival instinct was strong in that one
asciilifeform: in other wtf, old mobo comes back to life just as i readied to hoist replacement into place.
pete_dushenski: twas a good time.
pete_dushenski: danielpbarron: i hear you. and no disagreement here. pride will dig you into unnecessary ditches from which you'll then have to climb out. also, yw for auctioneering :)
pete_dushenski: apologies also for the delayed responses. as ^^ points out, i was away and pretty, pretty, pretty unplugged.

pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: except trump's caddy to be every bit as brash. and are the amerikans still claiming a growing economy ? really ?
shinohai: In tacocat news: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Cs7EuMGW8AAT7uZ.jpg
asciilifeform: (mining was ditto -ev and thing was quickly auctioned for scrap)
asciilifeform: re hughes 'glomar explorer', story is that even AFTER cover was blown, the thing was sent to do the ~job claimed in the cover story~ -- undersea mining. and not 'raise ww2 ships', which even after the robot was built, remained -ev.
asciilifeform: then again i would not be the first to know, if this weren't so.
asciilifeform: hence the inference that 'it's -ev'
asciilifeform: afaik most german subs are still right where they were left, on the bottom.
mircea_popescu: this is not exactly true. the raising of nazi submarines is +ev for nation-state ; as shown once ru sub sinks.
asciilifeform: or how cia/howard hughes built a massive robotic salvager JUST for that one sov sub.
asciilifeform: imho it may or may not make sense to make a tool just for trb. just as raising most ww2 sunken submarines is not +ev, only the ones full of nazi gold.
asciilifeform: y'know, crapolade that dijkstra warned against in 1972, when it barely existed even.
asciilifeform: to briefly revisit upstack, the difference matters here in the respect that a ~cpp~ call-grapher is a ~much~ taller order, because of the OOP soup
mircea_popescu: what can i tell you.
asciilifeform: the only cpp in my pogo build was trb.
asciilifeform: ditto userland toolz.
mircea_popescu: i like the place where you live ; and would love to visit sometime.
asciilifeform: ( mircea_popescu uses 'c' and 'cpp' interchangeably, but they are quite different , the way heroin and cocaine differ , though both are simply 'dope' to the uninitiated )
asciilifeform: on this list eulora is the only cpp proggy...
mircea_popescu: there's also linux ; and eulora ; and gcc. and for that matter... emacs.
asciilifeform: and solely because of the 'grandfather's pistol' aspect
asciilifeform: trb is the only one i know of first-hand
asciilifeform: it isn't clear to me though that there are so many cpp hairballs that justify the salvage effort
mircea_popescu: on the good news front, we do have lisp-in-linux-on-irc already.
asciilifeform: exposed to a lisp.
asciilifeform: it isn't even a mega-mystery what this will have to look like:
mircea_popescu: actually a long term "c++ toolkit" is probably a very worth republican project. it's accessible by parts, like seen here, even if the parts are really above pay grade of most folk, and is certainly unevitable. we're stuck with a lot of c++ code and this isn't going to go away.
asciilifeform: there's a thing for finding ~some~ buffer overflows. and that's it.
