diana_coman: mircea_popescu: I would say it's
a most improper dependency really
diana_coman: and otherwise there is no point to using cs on server as far as I can see; wtf does the server need
a graphics engine
mircea_popescu: but it's not
a proper dependency, just data types nonsense, classes etc, like with the sad "int" nonsense of yore ?
diana_coman: to answer your q as stated: I can move it but it will take
a lot of effort and time (atm I don't have
a clear estimate for it but I doubt it's less than
a month given all deps)
diana_coman: if we might squeeze without, it's
a whole lot of effort&time not poured in there
mircea_popescu: now practically, seems cuntoo is (by far, actually) the least mangy dog in that horse stable, so i guess we're in the business of making it
a horse.
mircea_popescu: this is
a fact, and i ain't choosing
a while calling this republic.
mircea_popescu: the choice before me here is strictly to either
a) tell bvt to desist, as the kernel is too cool to be touched by our derpy hands ; or else b) have some kinda process to use custom, bespoke, patched kernels.
mircea_popescu: once the kernel has
a tty hole in the right place, and the right place is under republican control, i'd say the goal has been done well.
mircea_popescu: more broadly what i'm thinking to do is let bvt continue his work on kernelization, because
a) the current kernel randomness code is pure shit and b) using
a serial interface as the standard is perfectly fine
BingoBoingo: Goes with being located at an extreme point on the map. All I gotta do is wave North and everyone's covered within
a reasonable margin of error, Porteños notably outside the salutation.
mircea_popescu has
a ready list of many titles, none of which MEAN anything
diana_coman: but ftr, the fact he writes those in parts is because I set him to do that (as
a cure to wasting time otherwise).
spyked: indeed. that happened some years ago (burned
a disk), which is when I decided to at the very least ups.
diana_coman: spyked: lol, you're setting
a bounty there!
mircea_popescu: ive who buries random objects
a foot apart in the dirt, fish like corn cobs alike, because that's what he's doing. even if the former returns empty handed and the latter happens to strike
a combination that works, nothing changes : one's human and the other not, one's rational and the other's just some flavour of
magician.
mircea_popescu: and in other importan points : asciilifeform is not
a ~scientist~. asciilifeform is
a scienpriest. the difference between the two is that the scientist follows some kind of meaningful structure of reality, that is communicable. "paradigm" or whatever. the scienpriest simply follows his own internal madness. there's
a deep difference between the fisherman who goes fishing because there's fish to be fished, adn the primit
BingoBoingo: But that is
a strong objection because... when is
a blog ever finished?
diana_coman: BingoBoingo: that "physical posts" image makes me think of
a sort of haphazard hut-of-
a-blog, lolz
BingoBoingo: English isn't
a consistent enough language for me to want to save the noun "post" on blogs through comparison to other English language constructions.
BingoBoingo: hanbot:
A writ seems like something determined important enough that the order was issued to have the matter written into
a writ.
hanbot wonders what
a writ really is, after all.
BingoBoingo has thought of
a blog post as being like
a fence post.
A structural piece holding together the larger blog as
a whole. The poor labeling argument however does carry more weight than my previously private metaphor.
mircea_popescu: yes, and you're cordially invited to do it on facebook. you could similarily cook using something other than
a stove -- such as for instance, an open pit fire. you're cordially invited to do that with your berber brethren, rather than indoors. and so on.
PeterL: mircea_popescu: that is an article that contains
a picture of
a cat. My point is that you could post something other than an article.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-05-24 02:56:37 mircea_popescu: what do you find scarier,
a mouth open so wide you can see the teeth, or
a mouth open so wide you can't even see the teeth ?
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-05 10:10:53 PeterL: But I wouldn't call
a picture of my cat an article, even if it is
a blog post.
mircea_popescu: the funny thing is i thought there was
a chan in that vein registered already. wasn't there ?!
PeterL: But I wouldn't call
a picture of my cat an article, even if it is
a blog post.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-11-05 08:41:55 mp_en_viaje: peterl & all : would you mind terribly if you referred to your articles, on your blogs, as articles ? it's what they are, i get it, you post them, but calling them "posts" makes about as much sense as calling cars "
a drived" and girls "
a fucked". you don't go about bars with
a "hey, fucked! wanna do shots ?", do you ?
diana_coman: I do get feeds from it, got
a bunch today even so it's working at least here.
mp_en_viaje: ftr, there's 10 ecu to the bitcent, meaning the above's priced at
a fraction of
a fiat cent currently.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-04 08:05:05 mp_en_viaje: comments welcome ; as things currently stand i'm thinking
a one week auction starting tomorrow is the way to go here.
mp_en_viaje: in any case, the morphological description of the articulation of thought :
a pile of articles, and the web of links tieing them together.
mp_en_viaje: attributively, to limit the application of
a noun to one individual or set of individuals" is from 1530s, from this sense in Latin articulus, translating Greek arthron.
mp_en_viaje: Meaning "literary composition in
a journal, etc." (independent and on
a specific topic, but part of
a larger work) is first recorded 1712. The older sense is preserved in Articles of War "military regulations" (1716), Articles of Confederation (U.S. history), etc. Extended meaning "piece of property, material thing, commodity" (clothing, etc.) first attested 1796, originally in rogue's cant. Grammatical sense of "word used
mp_en_viaje: c. 1200, "separate parts of anything written" (such as the statements in the Apostles' Creed, the clauses of
a statute or contract), from Old French article (13c.), from Latin articulus "
a part,
a member," also "
a knuckle; the article in grammar," diminutive of artus "
a joint," from PIE *ar(ə)-tu-, suffixed form of root *ar- "to fit together."
mp_en_viaje: nah, article is
a wider word than that. "articles of incorporation" predates the newspaper / tin alley morti di fame trying to steal it.
diana_coman: yes, but "post" there for all its similarity to "to post to the blog" is just as made up, as far as I can see;
a blog post, as there is
a newspaper article, dunno; and in the vein of "just as much to do with what they are doing otherwise", wouldn't that hold for articles too?
mp_en_viaje: dude doesn't understand why software development ~couldn't~ be done in the past, which'd be the only point making
a discussion of v worthwhile in the fist place.
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: blog is just
a made up word as much as post is.
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, the reason i brought it up being specifically "In the past, software development could be done by applying
a series of patches to arrive at
a final program state. With v, the patch is replaced with the slightly different vpatch, as described below."
ossabot: (ossasepia) 2019-10-29 diana_coman: PeterL: and for completion, the application 2-steps process applies to you just the same as to any newcomer (if anything, due to do-nothing history, you start with
a minus compared to them).
mp_en_viaje: what's wrong with having
a blog fulla articles ?
diana_coman: so yeah, it is correct to call them articles and to call the "blog"
a book I suppose.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-05 04:46:58 mp_en_viaje: peterl & all : would you mind terribly if you referred to your articles, on your blogs, as articles ? it's what they are, i get it, you post them, but calling them "posts" makes about as much sense as calling cars "

a "hey, fucked! wanna do shots ?", do you ?
mp_en_viaje: while lyrical is
a story of women -- which is why it doesn't USE NAMES.
mp_en_viaje: anyways, to fix the tard's definition, since i had to fucking link idiots : epic does not mean "massive and imposing in scale or size". i get ~why~ socialism/ourdemocracy would THINK SO, but it's still not true. epic means "
a story of men". quite literally, that's what it is, the discussion of heroes in heroic terms.
spyked: also, "epic", e.g. "
a fost epic filmul ala"; "ah, credeam ca
a fost liric, bine ca nu dramatic"
mp_en_viaje: o btw, jfw why is your ~comment link(off of 2019-11-05 @ >>>08:38<<<) come with
a select preset ?!
spyked: mp_en_viaje, it's "post"<->"fuck" tho, innit? so "she was
a good fuck" is
a closer analogy
mp_en_viaje: peterl & all : would you mind terribly if you referred to your articles, on your blogs, as articles ? it's what they are, i get it, you post them, but calling them "posts" makes about as much sense as calling cars "

BingoBoingo: It will take
a substantial interruption to not have the pre-closing statement published by midnight UTC
BingoBoingo going to have to sleep before publishing Pizarro accounting. On the plus side receipts I had placed in
a weathered envelope labeled "Keep" have finally been found in
a pristine, unlabled envelope. There will be
a paddling.
ericbot: Logged on 2019-11-04 14:46:15 mp_en_viaje: if you were to give it
a looksee that'd be most helpful.
bvt: i didn't think any special activity was urgently required from me, and the blogpost with my comments on the matter will come
a bit later; i can see re weak sample
mp_en_viaje: in the terminology of
turns, people who don't get their turn are more likely to also not do anything to fix it. so i'm tryin to make
a point of it.
mp_en_viaje: like, plainly : people who do
a lot but don't talk
a lot may be not talking
a lot because they don't need to ; but may also not be talking for extraneous reasons, even though they do need to. it's impossible to dsicern which of the two is taking place from the other end, specifically because low volume = weak sample = no basis to guess.
mp_en_viaje: i don't think it's
a pressing matter ; i'll certainly read it.
bvt: re closing of s.nsa an the related conflict, i will do
a post on this (imo irc would be
a bad medium for this purpose, at least for me). i can increase the priority of this post if people consider it
a pressing matter.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-04 15:29:03 mp_en_viaje: incidentally, it occurs to me, bvt had
just completed a large pile of work re getting the fg in the kernel.
mp_en_viaje: but as far as the weather goes, this was
a superb autumn in yurp, had like one day of rain in five weeks' journeys, and even now, it's just sunny and beautiful.
BingoBoingo: It's
a substantial part of the sadness of the situation.
mp_en_viaje: alma = soul, casa = home. how they call
a homebody i guess or somesuch. someone whose central pursuits is the maintaining of their home.
mod6: mp_en_viaje: Hmm, not sure if I understand the reference exactly. But yeah, had
a whole pile of repairs to do around here. Has been keeping me on my toes since late sept.
BingoBoingo: diana_coman: AHA, but I never got into piano. My fingers understand buttons from
a Tuba instrument family point of view.
BingoBoingo usually does three fingers for letters, pinkies for shift&ctrl, spacebar open to being hit by whatever. Letter come out in bursts, usually no more than
a couple measures at
a time.
diana_coman: BingoBoingo: dunno, fwiw I rather think my previous piano-play xp actually helped
a lot re typing-without-injuries.
mod6:
A bunch of different things: Looking at some options for work for next year, Q1 I think. Working on
a whole parade of home-related repairs/upgrades. Following on and trying to help/give advise where I can re: Pizarro. Working on getting some of my blog posts re-posted. Spent
a bit of time trying to get the Foundation's ML back working -- since I had
a bunch of trouble with that, I've since just posted th
mats: in wow it depended on which class you played, i had arrangements like ctrl+shift+
A|S|D|F, ctrl+alt+QWERTY, the dumbest ongoing error i have ever made
BingoBoingo: Anyone who takes their pursuits to the level of "sport" have
a high incidence of either injury or odd physiological adaptations deviating from normal.
mats: esports players have
a very high incidence of injury afaik
BingoBoingo suspects his peculiar typing habits (more tuba than piano finger movements) are responsible for
a lack of keyboard time to wrist pain conenction. The downside of this is
a non-trivial error rate in typing.
mp_en_viaje: i dunno, i guess my proverbial laziness saved me, i never got into the precision orchestra raid bs. wtf am i,
a concert pianist ?
mp_en_viaje: mats, i expect over the past three decades i used computers for upwards of 50k hours. and yes,
a good chunk of that was playng, but...
mp_en_viaje: mod6, that's
a rather weird way to think about it, don't you find ? wtf am i, the man-eating ogre ? and wtf are you, princess rapunzel, asleeep in
a castle, waiting for prince to come wake you up with
a kiss / eat your babies, at his options ?
mats: i'm embarassed, and i haven't played the game in
a decade
diana_coman: mats: sucks; but dunno, maybe really you need
a custom-made keyboard /mouse? afaik from others it can make wonders; if the problem is that bad something is seriously wrong there.
mats: honestly anything involving
a keyboard for more than 2h
a day is debilitating
mats: ive been at it
a while, unsure whether or not to throw in the towel and go back to doing jr mgmt 'cyber' nonsense where i'd be massively overcompensated for my ability
mats: id like to reverse programs for
a living and carpal tunnel has been
a physical and psychological impediment
mats: the former is proceeding slowly and latter in fits and starts, usa has
a strong gravity
diana_coman: ah, hm, that's
a point; yes, I think I will (though I do need to write stuff down there, huh).
mp_en_viaje: you gonna bid on the s.nsa auction then ? i really hope it's not gonna be
a sad case of crickets.
diana_coman: mats: there are in #o quite
a few people who did that, maybe you can learn something there?
BingoBoingo: mp_en_viaje: Right. I expect the statement will be complete and the dispute period won't need anymore time than an auction does. The couple silent absentee customers will get their remaining customer equity pushed into their deedbot wallets. Loading the Feb/March 2018 - September 2019 stretch into the head again to make sure I'm not missing anything has been...
a something.
