felipelalli: mircea_popescu: znc done. I hope I have configured it properly. If you see something weird again please tell me.
gabriel_laddel: does mircea_popescu have slavegirls swallow stool samples to bring their own tastes inline with his own?
phf: mircea_popescu: that's a very fine intel
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: apparently i fail yet again as educator.
felipelalli: mircea_popescu: you don't know how to hide these annoying messages in your client? I am not doing this purposely. Or it is the network, or I turned my notebook off and on again.
gribble: felipelalli was last seen in #trilema 3 weeks, 5 days, 11 hours, 44 minutes, and 37 seconds ago: <felipelalli> mircea_popescu: why mpex isn't listed on Google anymore? https://www.google.com.br/#safe=off&q=mpex I just realized that yesterday, is that purposeful?
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: good set?
asciilifeform: weighed approx. what a standard girl per mircea_popescu does.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what's that
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: now that i think about it, i dun recall prb having ssl eater in it
a111: Logged on 2016-08-22 18:19 mircea_popescu: seems ~more or less, "cloudflare turned off the chunk of bitcoin '''infrastructure''' ran by imbeciles imbecilisyh eno0ugh to rely on cloudflare"
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what's your top block atm ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ah, i misread, the half that CAN.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: fwiw, resolves here in the heart of mordor.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: https://archive.is/NtTPs << speculation re why.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: notably, see include/knobs.h. THIS is what we get instead of automake.
asciilifeform: now that mircea_popescu mentioned it, i recall an 'elaborate bots' thread.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: cannot be ruled out. though the level of decorative dressing is quite ludicrous, in that case.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i thought it was called 'rubbish island'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu has a point, if shitoshi had ~modelled~ anything, he may well have junked the whole thing and - not necessarily published anything at all.
asciilifeform: i dun think anyone was imagining mircea_popescu creating tx on grid paper, with pencil, no.
asciilifeform: jurov: fwiw, my own btctron is configured ~exactly like (we infer) mircea_popescu's was - very 'old' coins are sent 0fee.
a111: Logged on 2014-11-14 19:44 mircea_popescu: maybe.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'harrison bergeron'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: znort went off into heathendom
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this is because it is a broken-fauced-water-raft.
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/gnupg/devel/68250 << gpg lulz.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-22 03:17 mircea_popescu: and trying to implement a "better" autoconf, even "by hand", will not result in anything better
a111: Logged on 2016-08-22 03:02 mircea_popescu: basically, seems to me most, or at least a good chunk of autoconf problems as described by alf come from the fact that it tries to parse, rather than compile. in the abstract sense of these terms.
asciilifeform: the other option of course is to do it as mircea_popescu described, and to have NO canonical vpatch repo at all, and 'every man for himself.'
diana_coman: phf mircea_popescu I think that was probably before my time really
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> ok, but i mean... so we drive nails with screwdriver because that's what we got. << In that case skip nail and drive in screwdriver. Better load bearing ability, usually...
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if the thing uses opengl, it doesn't care about gpu driver
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: go an' try reading the generator.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: automake doesn't build the gpu driver.
asciilifeform: y'know, 'distribute exe' is ~even easier~ on the n00bz and rubes, but mircea_popescu doesn't do this.
asciilifeform: and mircea_popescu expects them to compile the game ?
phf: mircea_popescu: that's pretty much how it goes. hardwired paths because "fuck automake" or patching ./configure directly or all kinds of variations on the theme
asciilifeform: recall mircea_popescu's '#include must die' thread ?
a111: Logged on 2016-08-18 02:48 mircea_popescu: configure: error: libgpg-error is needed.
phf: mircea_popescu: well, there's the primary file, which is your *.ac, which using autoconf generates your ./configure Makefile.in etc. ~those~ can be shipped with project and will work out of the box
phf: mircea_popescu: well, there's the primary file, where you say things "i need a c compiler for this project"
phf: mircea_popescu: it's already in there
phf: mircea_popescu: i am, i am ashamed to admit it, feel comfortable in the warm embrace of apple's unix boxes, so transitioning out has been slow and painful.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this is a useful ability for folks who keep stables of genuinely old lappy
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the cell comes out of the plastic box and separates from the proprietary connector and monitor pcb
phf: mircea_popescu: never mind, wrong on that account too
asciilifeform: just for mircea_popescu !
a111: Logged on 2016-08-21 01:06 mircea_popescu: the song goes "uite-asa as vrea sa mor, cu paharul linga mine, cu cobzarul linga mine, intr-o crisma din obor, sa scriu cind o fi momentul cu vin rosu testamentul. sa-i tragem o betie de pomina sa fie"
a111: Logged on 2016-08-20 23:15 covertress: mircea_popescu, I'll elaborate when I bring his proposal, in person.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: no need to posit effectual, this particular bit of squid ink was not difficult.
a111: Logged on 2013-10-13 20:09 mircea_popescu: please do.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: levaquin and related antibiotics do the weird arm/stump/hand-ish birth defect.

a111: Logged on 2016-08-19 12:40 mircea_popescu: so on other news, i am writing teh republic's "cia factbook", and on the matter of gdp i would like to have an estimate of the "fair market value of the total time donated to republic during 2015" in the estimation of everyone involved. detailed is better, but nothing over a page omg.
shinohai: kk mircea_popescu ... I'll find relevant section and make up a post
trinque: muchas gracias mircea_popescu
shinohai: mircea_popescu: I spoke with mod6 about a v-style wot viewer, now may be the time to expound upon said idea.
znort987: mircea_popescu: but how does one get to the comments entered along with ratings ?
mircea_popescu: $gettrust mircea_popescu znort987
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-20#1526048 << just a thing for the longterm, mod6 . gotta start thinking in v-process terms. << sure thing, point taken. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: AHA, very popular genera.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: can not see. Apparently Youtube broke again and refuses to obey my download script.
shinohai: +mircea_popescu why not try playing it lol. you just wanna compile thangs ? lol, this is why I stick more on trb side of things xD
covertress waves goodbye to mircea_popescu
covertress: mircea_popescu, I'll elaborate when I bring his proposal, in person. ☟︎
covertress: mircea_popescu, I bring fond greetings from a gun-toting, tannerite-shooting, ivy league, master of dining ettiquette.
covertress waves hello to mircea_popescu
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> so if i want to publish a vpatch today, how do i go about it ? <+jurov> ofc you can send it to mailing list. and to phf via deedbot, and maybe some other places i dunno? << i always just send mine to the ml
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: not really - if i shit in my btctron, the most that can burn down is my own house.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: argument was not 'oh we'll fudge it, and no one will know the difference!1111'
phf: so i think mircea_popescu has alergy to broken thinking, which is there plenty. retrofitting "equivalent solution" in this case is going to mask the fact that the process was not v, but something else entirely made to look like v post factum. you might as well export git history into v patches
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i can see where you're going, aha.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu, as usual, is choking on allergens that aren't actually here.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this is very easy to say, but not only did we not have generations pass, but even after just one year, much of what anyone remembers about 'the process' comes entirely from the recorded result.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the result will be exactly equal.
phf: mircea_popescu and co, there's no deedbot process. at the frequency of vpatches, whenever i see one, i just uploaded it to btcbase. and by see, i mean it's posted to a log or just mentioned
a111: Logged on 2016-08-20 14:18 mircea_popescu: so far vpatch production not exactly deluvional in the first place.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-20 14:08 mircea_popescu: i dun recall what the problem was there.
jurov: mircea_popescu: my 2016 work was just monthly reports and btc.yt maintenance, about 4hrs total. There's another 20hrs turdatron upgrade/maint but seems that went to waste.
covertress waves goodnight to mircea_popescu
covertress: mircea_popescu, one of my co-panelists has a proposal for you. I'll bring it when I visit.
covertress waves hello to mircea_popescu
a111: Logged on 2016-08-17 16:20 mircea_popescu: "I doubt this will ever happen. Even he never cracked any PGP keys at all, the FUD he spread around was a nice way to get some free advertising. Look, people saying his name on gnupg and enigmail lists, which are quite popular I believe."
a111: Logged on 2016-08-19 20:35 asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu https://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-devel/2016-August/031516.html << continued lelz
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i did a tour of duty in the most godforsaken imaginable salt mine full of ex-nsa folk. ☟︎

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: was my point. concert organists dun have 'i gotta pump with this other hand' problems.
asciilifeform: asciilifeform's eyeglasses would not work on mircea_popescu either, i suspect.
asciilifeform: quite a few items that look 'wtf, why would you DO that' to mircea_popescu , come from not having a slave stable
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the correct analogy is the bellow pumping.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-19 18:40 mircea_popescu: phf what the fuck is wrong with just flipping pages / adding more panels if flipping is THAT big a deal
a111: Logged on 2016-08-19 12:40 mircea_popescu: so on other news, i am writing teh republic's "cia factbook", and on the matter of gdp i would like to have an estimate of the "fair market value of the total time donated to republic during 2015" in the estimation of everyone involved. detailed is better, but nothing over a page omg.
