mircea_popescu: if you want a csv version, why not make that. if you're making a html version, should have pages.

mircea_popescu: hey i may be up for setting up some kind of searchable thing with everything dumped into postgres. not sure how much worth vs. time, but could be useful as these stats grow

mircea_popescu: i don't agree with his illuministic/humanitarian blaming of the hardware, i believe we can't have computers until and unless impaling every single derp currently involved in computing in any capacity, but this looks like a dispute for the ages.
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: re "Your name is enough cannon, Highness, said Pototki." << (just curious: is the wordplay present in romanian, too?)
Framedragger: damn
mircea_popescu, your wordspersec rate is good. (and i'm yet to read the siege story!)

mircea_popescu: the notion that you WANT "instant" messaging is simply begging the question - you thereby and therefore DO NOT want secure, or workable, or sane.

mircea_popescu: it is not clear that otp actually works ; it is almost certain nothing else in the "pfs" gargle does.
BingoBoingo: <
mircea_popescu> soviet phones were owned by state corp, say. << Many phones still owned by descendants of original AT&T still collect rent
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: this, incidentally and admittedly, is probably why i'm reading logz and half-lurking and all that, to be honest with you
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: re. need for synchronization, different needs for different cases? (also, near-instantaneous doesn't imply synchronous or even "with retained order" (not under all interpretations anyway))
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: sure, i see your point regarding implicit assumptions in "instant messaging" etc.; but on a technical point, they allow for pfs through 'session secrets' without having a bunch of pre-computed keys (unknown status of distaste @ these terms here)

mircea_popescu: it is safe to say the result of a life dedicated to science will idem be "pile of shit"

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform think of "glove" in the sense of, a cubic foot heavy box you stick hand into, move around
a111: Logged on 2016-07-17 00:57
mircea_popescu: actually a proper, accelerometer based, precision instrument (glove ?) as described here seems a required item, thinking about it.
shinohai: Is that a genuine case made of *plastic* on that thing
mircea_popescu ?

mircea_popescu: not that i'd ever or have ever typed on anything but a proper fucking desktop keyboard. even the laptop is annoying to me because off spacing.

mircea_popescu: i can't imagine why the fuck anyone would use the toy shits. if your affairs CAN be organized by the machine, you don't have affairs complex enough to require outside help. stop wasting your time with the thing and work teh noggin.

mircea_popescu: "The Solution To No Problems Back in 2011, when I ran AnonNews.org, I had to cope with frequent DDoS attacks - not all that surprising, given that it was a very popular news site and community for Anonymous, which was seeing the peak of its media coverage at the time. In 2011, however, it was pretty much impossible to get working DDoS mitigation for less than $100 a month, and that was simply not a budget I had to spend on it

mircea_popescu: here's something for the historian in alf! there's ancient statement of the principle, recorded in 1970 milwaukee journal : "You make yourself ridiculous by thinking you can do anything. The word is divided in two. The Russians and the Americans, no one else. What are we? Americans. Behind me there is the government, behind the government is NATO, behind NATO is the US. You can't fight us, we are Americans."

mircea_popescu: "oh i know, we've created a sort of monarchy without a king, basically just the court and nobody there to behead us - we'll call it democracy. if anyone inquires into the matter we can always add modern in front and it'll be all good!"

mircea_popescu: if anyone wants the project, can be (probably SHOULD be) implemented as pure html, just a form.

http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-14#1502997 << how much of this is genuine amish weird and how much of this is cheap sensationalism pulled out of the ass by soviet state in its fight to flatten any curl of independence in its perceived domains is probably never getting established.
Apocalyptic:
mircea_popescu: I'm not pleading ignorance
Apocalyptic:
mircea_popescu: hey, indeed I tremendously overestimated tardstalk
deedbot:
mircea_popescu updated rating of Apocalyptic from 2 to -1 << ex tmsr, currently tardstalk. apparently sense sometimes fails to take.

ben_vulpes: trinque: lowers the energy barrier for me to do the thing

BingoBoingo:
mircea_popescu: I've never used it, but ok
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: there's no captcha for the kiwiirc webchat thing only if your ip request is quite unique etc. if you e.g. go from tor (*ducks*) then you get presented with the lovely cloudflare captcha where you have to solve shit for multiple times until you pass. but at least no default captcha i guess

mircea_popescu: (i'm not saying you're making a mess, i'm just saying - we're stuck with all this grandfathered in bullshit, such as boost, openssh, who the fuck knows what else even. qt ffs.)
mod6: <+
mircea_popescu> at least this'd allow some basis for proper management of this mess, rather than current adhocness << the nice part about the makefiles and your preposed solution is that we would finally have a solution in place for all of this.
mod6: <+
mircea_popescu> mod6 specifically, iirc it's tens of mb not gb. amirite ? << Yes, Sir.
mod6:
mircea_popescu: thanks for your input here, its high time that we get away from the adhoc nature of this build process.
