mircea_popescu: so now, you're
telling me
the XY vs XZ line happens because... i pass latin-1 ?
then why is Z
there.
phf: the log website ~and
the bot~ render everything as unicode, because you can't mix multiple encodings in rendering. before rendering a decision needs
to be made about
the validity of original content.
the validity check is "if
this is not valid utf-8,
then assume it's latin-1, in which case
take latin-1 string and encode it as utf-8"
phf: well, a111
takes a pill against
the convention. otherwise you get
the mangled lines in log rendering for all
the latin-1 posted content
phf: this happens because of
the often discussed latin-1 fallback. "by convention" irc lines are interpreted as "utf-8 and if
that fails latin-1"
shinohai: what about
this retardedness ....
mircea_popescu: in
the case you
tested, yes. in
the case i
tested,
the log seems
to, judging by
the www part, but
the bot quoting in chan doesn't, judging by
the
transform. like :
phf: but log never
the less interprets, stores and passes
through correct unicode
phf: mircea_popescu: you see above as square with numbers because
that's a unicode convention for missing font symbol
mircea_popescu: this self-licking icecream cone has
the capacity
to keep coders entertained for multiple lifetimes.
shinohai: Mine doesn't show
them in regular weechat, but
the webclient attached
to it does b/c js
mircea_popescu: phf
there seem
to be 3 layers of manglizing. yours above i saw both as a square with numbers, so i suspect your irc client fucks it up ; mine above is fucked up differently (looks like byte-interpreted rather
than unicode) and
then
the scarfer/www displayer prints
them out correctly but a111 reads
them eggog'd.
pete_dushenski: just sold
the is300
this morning on its first showing and fifth day on sale, have an appt
to rent out a condo shortly here. looking
to go 2 for 2 on
the day. abc baby!
a111: Logged on 2016-12-04 05:07 ben_vulpes: heh,
today i learned
the unitards are so fully vested in
the anti-sex brigade
that U+1F346 or ðif my client doesn't mangle it, goes by
the name of /aubergine/
jhvh1: thestringpuller:
The operation succeeded.
thestringpuller: !~later
tell pete_dushenski shit. first you get circle of life stuck in my head, now i'll be watching
the why of fry...
a111: Logged on 2016-12-04 06:17 pete_dushenski: and don't even get me started on blowers.
they're worse
than scooty puffs as far as motorised sensitory offenses.
jurov: When dieharder has
to rewind
them so many
times, obv it finds some problems
jurov: ben_vulpes what is
that? You were dumping /dev/random for 48 days straight and got only 8MB data?
☟︎ ben_vulpes: same goes for mircea_popescu and
the very very long depreciation schedule
ben_vulpes: i figured you might catch
that and find it amusing, pete_dushenski
pete_dushenski: and i gotta agree
that v8 is defo
the king.
the queen and prince would be i6 and v12, just not sure
the orde
tbh. but
these are
the most readily encountered configurations
that are inherently balanced, which results in smoother firing sequences and less vibration. i4 and v6, which are found in >90% of new cars sold. v8 is only ~5% of new cars (trucks obv. have much higher uptake of larger engines).
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: caught
the 'commie is someone who doesn't drive a v8' reference! 'grand
tour' was finally released in canada and i caught up
this weekend. skipped most of ep2 but had a fair few chuckles
throughout 1&2.
pete_dushenski: poor dpb is right.
that attack dog side of
trinque is sumtin fierce! fun
to see.
pete_dushenski: btw mega-logs yesterday, still hammering my way
through
trilema commentary ;)
pete_dushenski: canadians are
too nice and middle class
to even SAY
they object
to blowers. so...
they persist.
pete_dushenski: like all 'empowering' devices.
they do ~jack shit but
they FEEL phenomenal for
the user. at least
that's my impression. god help me if i ever find myself using a blower first-hand.
BingoBoingo: And yes,
this means you invite
the neighborhood
to beat you down if you can't back up your blower's roar.
pete_dushenski: i'd argue
that blowers are slave 'empowerment'
tools and little else besides.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Nah,
to
the neighbors. You are daring
them
to MAKE you quiet
that shit down.
BingoBoingo: ANd
they are not sensory offenses.
They are sensory aggression.
They are a challenge
to all who hear
their roar.
pete_dushenski: i've even been using a broom on
the light dustings of snow we've been graced with
this fall. big fan for
the drier, powdier varietals of
the flakey stuff.
BingoBoingo: Yeah. On hard surfaces broom wins. On
turf rake wins.
pete_dushenski: and don't even get me started on blowers.
they're worse
than scooty puffs as far as motorised sensitory offenses.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: ever seen one of
those
tiny ballot making sucker
things ? get your leaves packaged ready
to go into compost.
mircea_popescu: blowers are
the most fucking retarded nontool, above even kitchen robots. (which no, aren't "work saving", competent woman beats it out of water in all domestic cases).
BingoBoingo: This is very
true.
The lawn niche where electric consistently still loses
to gas is blowers and blowers lose
to strong back and a rake.
mircea_popescu: or why diesel subs still use electric engines
to power
the shaft.
mircea_popescu: which is why diesel-electric
trains still go
to
this day.
mircea_popescu: the odd
truth is
that electric engines are much better at small and high loads.
the combustion engine has it's niche, but it's strictly car sized.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: most contemporary lawn mowers have moved on
to 4-cycles. 2-cyle however dominates
the more noble string
trimmer.
mircea_popescu: (to properly math 3.3*745.7 = 2460.81 watts of work for 47 * 10**6 / 2.20462 / 3600 = 5921.90742874 watts of burned off fuel.
that's 41.5% which is still pretty remarkable, around
the upper bound for a large 4stroke.)
mircea_popescu: supposedly 3.3 hp/lb/hr, which
translated from
the idiotic idiotarian units would be over 50% efficiency.
mircea_popescu: and
the whole scam of "well
they will listen if we run in front of
them and
try
to guess which way
they're headed and pretend
to be pointing exactly
that way ourselfes first so
there nyah!" only goes so far. eventually
they start going really stupid ways, such as.
mircea_popescu: that
the niggers won't listen
to usg is one
thing -
they get
the
TB
treatment (body reaction
to koch's bacile is
to build walls, literally of calcar, around bacile ghettos in
the lungs). who cares, 10% of
the pop and concentrated in
the poor south / poor urban areas. but by now
the hippies don't listen either ? young whites ?
that's becoming dangerous.
mircea_popescu: it's very strictly speaking a
transfer of raw, unadulterated power from
the bureaucrats
to random anonymous gurus and other populist figures.
that
trump stole hillary's cake is one
thing ; but
that
the ability of usg department
to dictate discrete behaviour in regards
to whatever
topic is decaying because
the ability of joe videoblogger's ability
to dictate same is increasing... now
that smarts.
mircea_popescu: in
the end,
through whatever means,
they do
the same
thing, and
the problem is slowly growing and getting noticed. just another one of
the countless and uncountable ways in which
the us becomes ungovernable for
the usg.
BingoBoingo: Suburban houses are frequently converted
to rats nests by changing occupants
mircea_popescu: except
the suburban houses keep getting
torn down
to make room for higher density rats' nests.
BingoBoingo: AHA, either
that or
they form "nuclear" family in suburban house populated by "family" of 5 unrealted dudes.
mircea_popescu: i dunno if you've seen how
the "aware", couch-surfing, backpacking, burning-manning redditard lives, but it is most reminescent of
the warsaw ghetto cca 1916.
mircea_popescu: the whole "downshifting" subculture is headed for a serious collision with
the bureaucratic
tradition. from
the etsy "textile creator" and "vintage" "reclaimer" all
the way
to lazy bums generally
there's
this entire "we don't need no exit paths wtf are fire extinguishers 50
to
the room is good man because we can't just walk up
to a girl and
tell her
to strip and dance". serious fire hazard
to say
the least.
BingoBoingo: But because pretentious
thing called "artists studios" and not "indoor slum"
BingoBoingo: Nah, seems
to just be shanty
town built shoddily inside warehouse. Caught fire as expedient housing
tends
to.
mircea_popescu: dude, isn't 40
the kil lcount of
that florida gay club dude ?
ben_vulpes: the wanting
to /be/ a horse only sticks until girly figures out what kind of 1500 cc vibrator her parents strap her
to after school
BingoBoingo: ^ lol at hipster derps artisticly
thumbing nose at fire code
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i suspect it's more of
the same "i want
to want something i can't get because i want
to want". horses and dogs more accessible, but horses are very much a showoff
thing and dogs well...
the afficionados
tend
to keep it quiet and get rammed often.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu:
tastes great with "i just want
to be a mermaid"
ben_vulpes: whales still satisfy
the need
to help without
the
time-reactivity
that would show results of 'helping'
mircea_popescu: actually dolphins seem
to be
the #1 zoophiliac fantasy in females.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Sure, but how
they react
to different camps can signal whether
they are fat aspie ideologue or pliable 4evar-alone lashing out for social approval
mircea_popescu: or wait,
the dolphins are no longer fashionable i guess ? what is it now, whales ? or
too shitlordy ?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes as opposed
to bycicling, because car pooling is not enough. omygerd you are killing
the planet and dolphins.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo male "feminist" seems
to be without exception fat dork
trying
to value signal, either because stuck in friend zone or because stuck in forever alone.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: what means "procreation === driving
to work" ?
mircea_popescu: in other lulz :
the "complete record" of an unicode symbol is... 102 entries. most of which are boolean, and most of which are entirely haphazard randomness such as "soft dotted ?" and "expands on NFD" etc.
mircea_popescu: more fault lines
than wrinkles on susan sarandon's ass.
mircea_popescu: then
there's
the group
that
thinks procreation === driving
to work ; and
the mommy blogger
types.
then
there's...
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes even
that is
two different heads attached
to an improbable ettin.
there's
the slut-feminists, who love
the cock and want
to basically be
the slaves of men
they choose ; and
the lesbian-feminists (usually abused
teens
that never got over it)
that hate
the cock and don't want cocks
to exist but insist on stuffing
their vagina with you know, rubber dolphins and etc.
ben_vulpes: relatedly,
there are interesting fault lines at work in
the left: anti-sex activists masquerading as feminists (see
the CoC mentioning "sexualized language") vs
the rad-fems who are cooking a whole pile of wtf for
the left's pet "feminists" on
the
topic of "but i love cock and babies and mothering and what precisely is wrong with
that and no you chicks with dicks can't come
to my moon party"
ben_vulpes: heh,
today i learned
the unitards are so fully vested in
the anti-sex brigade
that U+1F346 or ðif my client doesn't mangle it, goes by
the name of /aubergine/
☟︎☟︎☟︎ ben_vulpes: that said, i occasionally check my logs for reorgs and have yet
to see one
