mircea_popescu: since thye have no such hope about me, they "don't like" me. and so on. it's an easy enough game to play, but honestly i'd rather move to thailand and "seduce" the local whores,
$50 at a time.
Framedragger: the *banners.txt's are my partial cleanup, *_err_scan.log's are the original stderr's (with some junk in them). but i will clean this myself later. and siphnos.mkj.lt is where i'll host phuctor-related data. (it's on a separate unused vps, got an 'ok' from
$work for now.)

$100k on a tesla or equiv.
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: 'most' isn't really an argument now is it. nor was it my point. talking solely about folks buying
$100k cars, they're better off sifting through resumes to find a non-retarded driver than shipping their cash to musk et al., what with the rapidly sinking obamanchor tied around their weedy necks.

☟︎ Framedragger: extracting rows identifiable by 'id >
$num' also becomes super slow?
Framedragger: asciilifeform: why can't a separate box be set up to just crawl through all of phuctor pages, and then determine which of them are 'static' / won't ever change, for starters. and re-query the dynamic ones (at least the /phuctored) every
$x amount of time
Framedragger: have a way (rss or better version of rss, or whatever) to sync it every
$n hours.
Framedragger: asciilifeform: wouldn't be sure re. costs. vps can be
$5/
$10 a month, and stuff i used for ssh key crawling (scaleway) can bill hourly
Framedragger: (
$afk item #1 is "coffee grinder is a bit shit and requires force, i don't want to use force in my mornings.") :)
Framedragger: okay, i'll sit on it, meanwhile have
$afk stuff to do, and i'll update next week re. what i'd like to work on, if anything.
mircea_popescu:
$1k was nothing in 2012 like it is today ; and would have done nothing more for me then than now. what i bought for it was pretty stupid, according to the experts of the time, and doomed to failure. a working computer is pretty stupid, according to the experts of 2016, and obviously doomed to "it can't work".
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: regarding the "let's do cicada" objection - there probably are several angles which one could counter with - is the main one basically what trinque said, i.e., it's a form of (dishonest, to boot) bait-and-switch, which selects for some
$random_criterion and the latter may not at all translate into what's actually useful?
mircea_popescu: so, why doesn't
$item exist ? because the
$guy that's a) intelligent enough to do it and b) dedicated enough to toil through however long it takes to get
$item off ground hasn'rt come forward yet.
Framedragger: i guess could be done manually for small (<
$dumbars_n) webs of trust. with billing templates / gpg contracts, etc.
pete_dushenski: "At Twitter, he didn't collect a salary or stock options last year and only received personal and residential security costs totaling
$68,506." << dorsey's 2015 figures
mircea_popescu: eh. maybe they're paying him in fresh tail. so he made up some scam, sold it to some suckers for
$$$, then they want him to come back and be worshipped by all the interns ? sure, why not.
Framedragger: to an extent, i would say, no? in gossipd, user would have their own "hosts" file, mapping mircea_popescu to
$fingerprint or w/e

$500 a month (+some % of your every move in small print)"
a111: Logged on 2016-11-10 17:16 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform in a very theoretical principle, this. the mechanisms involved in the practical discussion, however, aren't nearly there. just simple cash starvation, "why is roach motel full of roaches!" "because you're paying
$8 a night"
mircea_popescu: ollege. If you are going to college to get an education and not to meet guys, you are insane, literally insane, delusional, in reality one is never going to happen and the other is going to happen anyway, and you could have gotten both for free at a bookstore. Worked for me. The only question for the future single mom is whether it's worth
$XXXXXX a year to meet guys, and the answer is of course it's not, even nightclubs l

☟︎ BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> this notion, that you need multi-
$k gpu accelerators, tightly coupled with os voodoo, just to use a motherfucking TEXT EDITOR, is very 'modern' << Seems to be sorts the thing "Sun" was born out of.

Framedragger: if they ask for an example tell them "well for instance if you really tried hard you could perhaps become a great slavegirl. start with
$trilema-tits-url"
BingoBoingo: And the cherry: "I've been driving forklifts for over 35 years. Sit down propane,electric,single forks,double forks,bale clamps and stand up narrow isle reach and anywhere I worked bosses were impressed with my work. No accidents and can drive circles around some of the forklift drivers I worked with. I was making
$21.50 an hour until my place closed down. Now they pay
$8-
$13 an hour,
$13 being high and don't need much experience if none
mircea_popescu: anyway. sigma aldrich sells it for
$952.90/100grams, which is indeed laughable.
BingoBoingo: Show the slighest interest in conservatism? How would you like a home freeze dryer for 7000 payments of
$9999
mircea_popescu: !~later tell gabriel_laddel so the thing is - you have to rewrite this. there's a lot of very powerful ideas struggling in the mire of very poor (and often rushed) writing. there's no way out, i can't rewrite it for you. while it's starting to emerge into sense it's not yet at the level of development where it can be productively engaged. take but one simple example : "
$computation against
$uri validate videos were watched".

$600/mo - anyways, it isn't about the money, it's about him doing absolutely nothing with it and making a mess that someone will have to clean up.

☟︎ jurov: "Emacs pretends GTK+ is an old-fashioned Xt toolkit. The entire Emacs philosophy is to force
$MODERN_THING to behave just like Xt just like a 1960s TTY. Emacs does awful things to GTK+ to maintain this illusion."
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes wards of the state my foot. they'll become vases, and the price tag will be in the
$100 range too.
pete_dushenski: shinohai:
$200k is what proper tomes ~should~ cost. keeps the riffraff from getting their cheeto fingers on the good word.
phf: in related news i don't understand punkd. it's a very expensive feature phone. yet one of the top FAQ is "how to reset the software when it hangs". i'm using this guy right now,
https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-T139-Flip-Phone-T-Mobile/dp/B00387FAC0 it's
$30 used (i think it was
$25 from t-mobile store, i'm not sure how amazon is selling it for
$90) and it never had to be "reset"
phf: (i actually don't know if those
$2000 ones are even the same, i vaguely suspect it's just a "high end brand" scam)
phf: when i was growing up my parents would by my italian shoes for
$200 or so, which was an exuberant amount. i have one pair still. i went hunting for the same kind recently, and not only is it impossible to find similar quality, once i had a friend of a friend recommendation it was in the
$2000's. and it's not even proper dress shoes, more of loather kind, with incredibly soft caoutchouc soles.
pete_dushenski: what did such a pair cost in arg ?
$150 worth of pesos ?
pete_dushenski: we're talking dress shoes like the ones i had on today. hugo boss. made in italy. c
$700 (~usd
$500)
BingoBoingo: And quality leather workboots cost
$400 to
$maxint, similar success

Framedragger: "a file called "wpbbin.exe" was placed in C:\windows\system32 and executed. That turns out to be a method Microsoft introduced with Windows 8 to allow the BIOS to execute code on boot up (!?!) called "Windows Platform Binary Table (WPBT)"." gotta love M
$ mircea_popescu: doesn't scale worth a shit either. spend 10k to encase it in metal shell, gunman spends
$20 extra for his bullet, you're back to leaking. spend 1mn to encase the shell in brick, gunman spends
$500 extra on ordnance you're back to leaking.
rarepepeforever: I mean who buys a pizza card for 5,000,000 (was worth
$200 at the time) simply because I put that it is worth 10,000,000 on the card :)
kmalkki: and mostly pointless.. use
$5 ftd232h instead with soic clip or wires
ben_vulpes:
$bizpartner (/me waves) says there is all sorts of inane horseshit involved in how os x handles devices, with odd text files and os restarts in the loop
shinohai is amazed at # of scammers that will put forth effort for
$20 ... then of course I started Eulora
adlai: fwiw - and bottle is still corked! - mircea's link doesn't cover folks who can live off of fiat wot, however short a time that lasts... ie, /me mostly lives off charity from
$whatever-wot, but doesn't have to sell his btc. does this make him evil?
mircea_popescu: and the beauty is, the only true boundry on the
