mircea_popescu: maybe in the future it'll be "no, really, if you made a movie it's not your movie", but i think that's more than a graph node away.
mircea_popescu: for now it'll be "no, really, you can't take wikileaks dump down. even if it does 'endanger the lives of agents'".
mircea_popescu: really, it's not intended as a thing to fuck with people from. it's intended as a thing where to be safe from people fucking with you.
mircea_popescu: i can see the case, i tell you. quentin tarantino makes a new movie, it's on your box before release, he comes here and goes OMFGWTFBBQ what am i supposed to say ? fuck you, give us free shit ?
mircea_popescu: if they come here and make a good case, they'd get it. if not... nothing.
mircea_popescu: shit. now i gotta come up with an opinion on this subject
mircea_popescu: bittorrent is legitimate. dmca altogether depends. what exactly ?
mircea_popescu: mats you know there was an entire paysite dedicated to the concept of pizza-surprise.
mircea_popescu: mod6 nono, it's good. creates a record, we have it for 5 years later when we've foprgotten
mircea_popescu: mats, too frail to be a ranger, to slow to be a troll... is there no place under the sun left for him ?
mircea_popescu: which incidentally - if anyone wants to sysadmin an aws-style offering on top of bisp metal, please get in touch. i'm open to the idea, we'd have to discuss how it would work.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: dude this shit, where i say something and it gets confirmed two lines down. ima go have a drink.
mircea_popescu: the only thing that does is, prevent him from healing.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform in fairness, this is a trope of contemporaneity. thoroughly broke "feminist" graduate student reduced to waiting tables for rest of life will STILL not "surrender". ie, admit the banruptcy of his own stupidity, to himself.
mircea_popescu: mike_c so write it! not like you write badly or anything.
mircea_popescu: mike_c now that's a point. yo cazalla ! BingoBoingo ! THE NEWS IS CHASING YOU!
mircea_popescu: yet there's bout to be some "what do you mean my 10 dollah gift certificate/reddit gold/whatever doesn't buy me anything!111"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform kinda my plan : apply lessons learned in crowd repelling from mpex, mpoe-pr, bitbet practice.
mircea_popescu: <mike_c> how is the being passed over without comment? Real actual bitcoin hosting! very cool. << i shudder at the thought of what'll happen once reddit & all gets wind of it.
mircea_popescu: mike_c one idea i had while falling asleep : would it be feasible to save a snapshot of wot.svg each night before update ?
mircea_popescu: !v assbot:mircea_popescu.rate.SamouraiWallet.1:50703213f787e3e8ea139045fb255146259780f4cee3f37fc321152e8c59704f
mircea_popescu: very succint, always quick, rarely find the global solution.
mircea_popescu: which shows us the problem in all its nude glory : ad hoc systems are unrepresentable.
mircea_popescu: but that's because you happened to take refuge from the rain there, has little to do with the roof.
mircea_popescu: housing roofs also play the role of attracting (or repelling) hot sexy soaking wet babes to your perch for the purpose of you getting a blowjob.
mircea_popescu: and if as far as we know it might as well not, that makes 84% or w/e comparisons untenable. irrespective of what may or may not be the case.
mircea_popescu: yeah, but now you're arguing with a straw man. i never said it doesn't, i just said as far as we know, it might as well not.
mircea_popescu: still not very valid a comparison, because no thiamine ever links to.. acell wall.
mircea_popescu: in any case, claiming a z80 and a pentium 6 are "99.84% identical" on the grounds of mass spectrometry is about as apt.
mircea_popescu: Adlai not a good example, it's directly obviouswhat that does.
mircea_popescu: mats admittedly i'm clueless, but how does this optimize anything
mircea_popescu: why ? you want to steal people's bank credentials and nude pics,
mircea_popescu: anyway, this is the true risk of stopping trains : all this long tail of shit that was supposed to be "never" catches up with you
mircea_popescu: think about it this way : if you reverse 5, out of thousands, but not randomly picked, you can now install on what, 1% of the base ? 10% ?
mircea_popescu: the sucvess of the past is no guarantee fore the failure of the future or how did that sec-mandated thing go
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform a) you can install it. b) it might become common in futuree.
mircea_popescu: if the byzantine problem had a systematic solution, we wouldn't be here.
mircea_popescu: because really, trying to rewrite it without dma ... might as well start over.
mircea_popescu: dma is actually one of the principal reasons i agree with alf's "current computing stack must die"
mircea_popescu: what this is saying is, "Scarf up cpu data, crack it on video card, good to go"
mircea_popescu: "Gpu can be used for fast/swift mathematical calculations like xor'ing or parsing"
mircea_popescu: otherwise, how much do you pay a man to go die in palestina or w/e.
