asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i dun play, so i cannot say, but if indeed the thing ~needs~ dungbeetles, to work correctly, this is a risk.
asciilifeform: where mircea_popescu advanced the argument that 'eulora needs dungbeetles'
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: You gotta remember that poverty also colonizes their minds kinda ruining them for anything else. But yeah seriously none would find a pair of tits to photograph.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> and holy shit they solve captchas. like... by hand ? << Seriously the captcha problem as been solved by the poverty solution.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> in other omg i can't believe this shit, apparently there's an entire ecosystem built around "faucets". << lol, you've been so sheltered from this fount of idiots

a111: Logged on 2016-09-01 20:33 mircea_popescu: somehow people dun do this irl, but online - no qualms about it.

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> if it's like "oh, random chick i met yesterday will meet me at airport and her... uhm... brothers... will drive me to their estancia in the interior" you're setting self up for lulz. << lol
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: Lol. I like how S.MG is already what Everpoop Software (or whatever spells of genesis guise are doing) wants to do.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: aha! So same context of one "modding"? Or third party as in, "Dude can have his complete own game running as long as it fits _this_ interface"
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: So the Eulora world will inevatibly allow different "modes of play" i.e. "Stealth game" or "Action game"? via >> http://trilema.com/2016/minigame-smg-august-2016-statement/#selection-907.192-929.3

a111: Logged on 2016-03-03 17:24 asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: http://dpaste.com/3YZ2895.txt << preliminary crib sheet
shinohai: mircea_popescu: tx id added to post, thx
trinque: mircea_popescu has treated this subject amply
asciilifeform: and the disk cost thing is one leg of what old mircea_popescu article called, iirc, 'responsibility collapse triangle'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: well yes.
asciilifeform: but iirc mircea_popescu already has good piece re subj.
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu colour me thick, but i still dun get why 'oh noez there'll be 2100000000000000 potentially-movable satoshis.' everybody still gets to sit down in 1MB block. so tx-ing will be eventually like what launching satellite to orbit is today - had better be worth the cost. but will still work quite the same.
asciilifeform: somehow i knew that mircea_popescu could not resist pulling such rabbit out of his hat.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: winrar can write poems just fine. samurai seemed to at any rate
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: granted, but sultan had whatever 200 pups, a couple were fit for higher life, so why not mp, sultan of tmsr ? too many castles needed to house them ?
asciilifeform: and mircea_popescu has it.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: so you have confidence in your ability to shape slavegurl into whatever form you please, then why not chitlin ? surely starting earlier has its advantages
asciilifeform pictures mircea_popescu walking up to seekrit skvirrel and giving 'the stare', like felix dzerzhinsky supposedly did
trinque: mircea_popescu │ you know, "omg i'm not looking looking" thing << afraid to look directly into the trilema, eh?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: afaik typical cowman filters out 'inconceivable' stimuli. 'oh that's nuffin, that's a dude who ~looks like~ obummer'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ever chat'em up ?
asciilifeform lelling over ancient mircea_popescu piece, where 'Putin este ceva intre obraznic si periculos, si intre noi fie vorba o tinta excelenta pentru un micut si elegant asasinat politic executat de unul dintre cele cite mai sunt, douazeci de servicii secrete romanesti.'
shinohai: gm mircea_popescu yes it seems there were 2 new Eulora ppl contacted me on bitcointalk overnight, but saw one made it here in logs.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: yep, those are priorities. mkay
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: ah, yeah, you're supposed to click around, otherwise it surely is too tedious!
a111: Logged on 2016-08-06 21:00 mircea_popescu: the major problem in poker isn't "fair dealing", it's debotting it. but i have a ready solution for this problem too, and im persuaded it's complete.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: so it would seem that your irc client *may* be using Windows-1252, because 0x96 in Windows-1252 appears to be – (EN-DASH). but, i'm realllly not sure, because, encoding hell. moving on to other stuff...
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160830/from:462/to:462#462 << have you seen many lumps of steel covered in flies ? << In commercial kitchen, yes!
Framedragger: "(9:29:01 PM) mircea_popescu: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? v"
mircea_popescu: Framedragger – – – mircea_popescu –
a111: Logged on 2016-08-30 14:01 mircea_popescu: anyway, back to the original issue, what exactly is supposed to protect gabriel's present infatuation from being applebaum'd in the arbitrary future ?
a111: Logged on 2016-08-30 13:53 mircea_popescu: ah trinque was also on lisp huh. there is that.
danielpbarron: mircea_popescu, i'll ask her
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: when i toured a ww2 submarine museum-ship, i learned that on board there were steel plates, with matching holes, to bolt to the hatchways when doing a planned dive, in case the hatches leak. somehow i find it hard to picture modern american sailors doing any such thing. osha would have a fit.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-30 15:24 mircea_popescu: "i am an engineer" "good for you" "but i'm poor" "then you aren't an engineer ?" "no, i am, it's just... the environment i come from doesn't allow for engineers. this world is so unfair!" "so then... by coming from an environment that doesn't allow for an engineer, you...aren't one ?" "NO SEE, ENVIOUS RAGE! OTHER PEOPLE ARE IN HEAVEN AND I AM IN HELL!!"
asciilifeform: well for that matter i have trouble picturing a mircea_popescu circa 1700 anywhere other than on proper pirate ~ship~
asciilifeform: so why does it surprise mircea_popescu if folks won't follow a heuristic that was devised in a world which no longer exists ..?
asciilifeform: yeah yeah on mircea_popescu's planet they dun have this, all smart folks sit in recliners and get hand-fed grapes by harembots while idiots labour
danielpbarron: mircea_popescu, girl is sister of guy who i play poker with
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: http://www.xach.com/naggum/articles/3199109843356887@naggum.net.html << inevitably comes to mind, re chump bait etc
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: you're probably right. problem is, site may need to be expanded later, and i hate re-doing work. but, you're probably right, in the end...
asciilifeform: what i meant was, mircea_popescu's observations about service industries and chumps are entirely, afaik, uncontroversially true, but i dun see how they connect to poor old gabriel_laddel's thing
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i parsed the sentence in same way at first
a111: Logged on 2016-08-30 05:16 mircea_popescu: the idea in both cases is that data storage depends on a very fixed relationship between geometry and magnetic substrate. breaking that (such as through boiling plastic, or cracking glass) is as good an approach as any "direct" method, and what's more stacks with any direct method.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: and i'll implement these things even if phf's bot becomes more reliable or w/e, because, decentralization!1 ☟︎
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: "not terribl educated" << y.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2016/the-pedoepiphany/#comment-118725 (queued)
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: vilnius!
gribble: trinque was last seen in #trilema 2 hours, 18 minutes, and 23 seconds ago: <trinque> mircea_popescu: aha, will keep running the latest trb
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: and i'd guess it was not 'mental issues', but the continuous thread in his life of not ever taking the sweat to get properly skilled at anything whatsoever.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'Have you ever had occasion to see these obnoxious shits the moment there's shots fired, by the way ? I know of no better illustration of USian subhumanity than that fear. He's right : the moment he took the rifle out and started popping lightbulbs left and right, he was a God to them. Moreso than any god they ever knew or ever had' << fella had a pistol. and apparently his time at the gallery was largely wasted, hit
covertress: mircea_popescu i've been asked to extend you a similar offer... to write for steemit xD ☟︎
covertress: mircea_popescu: not very well and mostly for Hollywood https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/dao-dead-long-live-blockchain-covertress-covertress?trk=mp-reader-card
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: neato!
trinque: mircea_popescu: aha, will keep running the latest trb
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: presently the thing will not build with - afaik - anything else.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: guided rocket ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: wasn't speaking of anything complicated, just something to prevent the routine police chopper from taking him out from above like sitting duck.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> ah too late for him ? << Apparently too late for many of the cool folk
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu sprouted a new letter in his name ?
asciilifeform: i do not, sadly, have mircea_popescu's entomological gifts.
asciilifeform: btw if mircea_popescu ever wants to do another 'hero' study, marvin heemeyer is every bit as interesting imho as joe stack.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Seriously. If he had any potential as a drunk he would have initiated aggression by pissing on people, places, and things
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: your old dwarf capo notwithstanding, the race is generally to the swift.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: re 'corruption', see also http://btcbase.org/log/2014-03-05#546880 . ☝︎
Framedragger: (gotta write that bot soon. which set of characters should trigger it btw, mircea_popescu ? shinohai uses / would use !~ as i see)
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: regarding first strand, no objection, in principle. that is, encouraging submission in itself my breed larger problems and usg-like structures. regarding latter, yeah i have a problem with cops as such. knowing that this will only solidify my "wannabe naive anarchist kid" image, i should point out that if we had a more responsible, (actually) individualist and conscious populace, there would be less need to defer violence
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo "limp penis WITH collapsed" << fck ty fxd
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: there was titanic butthurt later, when his verdict came out
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: they all wore british garbs and studied british legal tradition etc. but as i understand, r. pal was secretly sane.
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: familiar with mircea_popescu's pill against pseudoscience ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: where'd you get the 'unrelated' ? or the 'now' ? linked items were quite vintage
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: yes, very much so, and yes it's just been added to todo list...
trinque: mircea_popescu: for all my bot functions, yes. this is however why ircbot preceeds logbot. ircbot simply establishes and maintains connection, and one can attach to cl-irc hooks for whatever he wants.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: should i then proceed to implement the bot-part of the logs, too? if phf's bot part can be reused, then that's great, too. i guess i can investigate
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: wait, you mean rewriting references to log lines in your (e.g.) blog? understand, i didn't retrospectively import *past* logs into the viewer yet. (but i will, now.)
asciilifeform: <mircea_popescu> god damned it, now i'm gonna have to fish out old logs for a yet another time ? grrr. << the cure is that infrastructural items oughta be published.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: did you try mine though? the web side of thing. it *does* work, fwiw
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i have the web side of things, more or less, though it *was* a quick hack. http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/today ; you can select ranges, too, like http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160829/from:15/to:26#15
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i think i'm finally... about to... get the point ://
