“World Wide Web
” has enabled me to crawl out of my debt-hole and bootstrap myself into the lower middle class. For the first time in my adult life, I can afford to <b>eat</b> in restaurants where I don't<b> work.</b" << if anyone's curious or keeping score, THIS is what impels all the dizzy dorks of today. their very own VHS tapes, if you will.
mircea_popescu: aaaahahahaha o brother. "postmodern film/video theory
& crit with an emphasis on phenomenology" ? reheheheally.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: for as long as you're running the "awl" there are no solutions for this -- just mitigations. do not permit micrphones ; do not permit antennas ; use inductor
&battery arrangements ; shoot anyone seen approaching the solitary hilltop fortress and so on and so forth ad infinitum.
mircea_popescu: did the guy's payola mcnuggets
& happy meals not make it this month or wtf is their problem.

mod6: i need to integrate W_Mul_Comba
& W_Add_D and do some of the other things suggested above.
mircea_popescu: o right, mod6 WAS there iirc. recall harnett, rosenfeld
& friends ?
☟︎ mod6: I'm pretty sure I'm gonna like sword
& axe time.
mircea_popescu: geting hard numbers on file system performance, something everyone involved in data storage for the past 30 years has been vehehehery deliberately hiding, is certainly better use of time than, for instance, attempting to reason with djb jzw
& all.
a111: Logged on 2017-03-15 23:46 asciilifeform: in unrelated noose, 'nqb' reads
& parses a full 1MB block, with 2218 tx, and recreates it from fast-form, again to disk, in 0.123 sec. on a 3GHz opteron cum ssd.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-04#1679092 << my current thinking is, the only way to resolve this within a lifetime is to see if a mpfhf cycle could be constructed. if it can, solved, if it provably can't then it is time
&space finite, even as a statistical ceiling argument.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: people are liek "oh, mp can't be rich
& powerful because rich
& powerful people don't irc". totally, because it is really the goal of my life as well as everyone reasonable to be as rich and powerful as trump, so as to live the great life of idiots trying to insert cathetercam up your dick as you're trying to pee
mircea_popescu: incidentally, ben_vulpes
& other blog afficionados, check me out with the article renaming on the fly, yes ? and old name resolves and everything ? go me ok ? OK ?
a111: Logged on 2017-06-26 16:35 asciilifeform: 'Ever since IS
&T started to undergo "The Transformation", there has been a deliberate and systematic attempt to change Computing at MIT for the worse. Services that have been relied on for years have been discontinued and turned down, frequently without notice. Infrastructure critical to running MIT has been outsourced to cloud services during "emergency maintenance". Most of these changes had minimal impact on students and faculty,
mod6: yeah, everything is made with sawdust and cheap screws
& glue.
mod6: this is outside the spec, but just as an experiment, what kinda timings do we get if you were to do inline asm for the W_Mul
& Karatsuba procedures? is this worth doing?
mircea_popescu: then i discovered romania actually had a niche equivalent of the us pulp, spinrad
& all, so i moved on to that.
mircea_popescu: hey, free practical nsa work lab you got yourself. instrument
& enjoy.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-20#1672689 << the other major problem with "race" as a wholly-devoid-of-meaning anglotard subcultural construct is that... well... it's a brand, see. licenseable, negotiable like any other "negotiable instrument" ie paper money. there's no substantial difference between "Black
& Decker power tools hecho en Mexico" and "African with tribal tatoo made in Chicago" and finally
http://trilema.com/201 ☝︎ phf: there's a faux butcher shop in georgetown that sells various eastern european meets at premium, but i doubt the quality. their salo is questionable. my mom is working on a project in ukrain at the moment, so she's been sending photos of vodka carafe
& large slabs of salo
mircea_popescu: how well would all this price shitting would work if only silbert
& friends had the capacity to print bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform see ? usage breeds interest
& improvement ?
phf: i think it would be handy if loggers supported web export in kako format over some alternative url. so you could for example say
http://bvulpes/log?format=kako&date=2016-01-01 and that'll give you id;ts;nick;message plain text. think i'll write a proposal for it
phf: asciilifeform: sure, considering that graphics are intentionally seem to be kept might
&magic like can easily render the whole thing in software
mircea_popescu: it's still not altogether clear tyrone
& petrus actually matter in this complex social game.
pete_dushenski: "The extension uses a bit.ly URL to reach its C
&C, but the URL path is nowhere to be found in the extension code. In fact, it will obtain this path by using comments posted on a specific Instagram post. The one that was used in the analyzed sample was a comment about a photo posted to the Britney Spears official Instagram account."
ben_vulpes: texas a
&i and southern methodist, apparently
a111: Logged on 2017-06-03 02:15 asciilifeform: my least nonsensical hypothesis is that thiel funded urbit (yes) to make a half-hearted play at 'embrace
&extinguish'ing bitcoin
phf: oh, i know this area, obama's neighborhood is 5 minutes walking from me, it's all old construction, so not so much a "mega-house" as a large
&old dc property (apparently made from real stone!1)
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: but you did shift the goalposts a fair but there : 'inspected
& licensed' quickly became 'only toyota'. problem ?
mod6: it's USB-TTL direct plugged into machine, wired with the 5v, out,
& gnd
gabriel_laddel_p: emacs, htop, mc, sbcl all work fine, but X11
& fdisk do not, which sort of screws me. strace works, but tracing the X process does not turn up anything useful
mod6: trinque
& ben_vulpes : thanks for helping CluelessNoob.
mircea_popescu: the notion that someone somewhere takes the rappaports
& "allies" seriously is so fucking alien it fails to even register as obscene. but it fucking should, because it fucking is.
