mircea_popescu: so i had a router fail it
the most amazing manner overnight. it powercycles -
turns on, blinks
the downstream connections for a second,
then power goes off,
then back on again. it doesn't look analog at all, like failing power lines, but very much a
time-precise cycle, almost as if it's being flooded (which it isn't) or getting whatever magical packet in a loop.

tell mod6 Hitman Episodes Intro - 6 on sale
this weekend.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform organ of corti was one of
the early miner commentators
that both produced a large body of work and wasn't incredibly batshit insane
to
the point of stabbing his own eyes
throughout
ben_vulpes: now
there's a woman not
terrifically insecure about her
tummy
shinohai: We have a mattress store
that does
that here,
though I did get a nice Sealy
there during going-out-of-business sale #4672
BingoBoingo: Around here it
tends
to be flooring shops hawking "liquidation" carpet... until
they do inevitabily
tell
the
truth about "last" sale.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo
turning into a pretty decent scam, like
those ny jeweler shops "going out of business"
BingoBoingo: So a venture called "Smartisan" was
this year's late donor "saving" Openbsd
Framedragger: amazingly as you said
tho, it's ran your wp for 10 years which is just fine.
Framedragger: i guess you are implying a non-centralized
tmsr dns, in which case one would still need
to route via ip. but
there could also be
tmsr dht, nodes would gossip about where's key holder A hosting his site B, etc.. but not sure
Framedragger: re
tmsr dns, in principle don't see why not - it could just as well just update quite often. but not sure if gossipd is
taken into account (but
then not sure about ip stack either, so..)
shinohai: More in
the worx, juggling
those,
trb, and eulora mods.
Framedragger: ahh!
that.
those i heard of.
they have a nice pricing-by-the-byte system,
too, iirc
Framedragger: yeah
that didnt seem right but cant
think of anything else
pete_dushenski: i keep getting forwarded
to www.www.loper-os.org lol. wondering if i muntzed
the /etc/hosts file or what.
☟︎ Framedragger: ("went off
the deep end" is not a nice
thing
to say but it doesn't connote with money, usually, i would
think.)
mircea_popescu: they have a point - reddit is now not really protected by
the whatever act.
Framedragger: he replaced comments calling him a pedophile with
trump subreddit moderator names
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i'm quoting from
that qntra article. apparently it's reddit admin or somesuch
Framedragger: "I messed with
the "fuck u/spez" comments, replacing "spez" with r/the_donald mods" for srsly
pete_dushenski finally, gaily reading 'liberals, what liberals?'. can never have
too much log adnotation.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: heh it was. what, like anyone actually
trusts investment advice from students ? might as well
take investment advice from daytrader who looove
to lose
their shirts

toy is practically begging for a rewrite. personal hunch in re orbital software development model is
that software subject
to realtime changing constraints has a ~2 year depreciation schedule

Framedragger: pete_dushenski: rad! (nice fireworks,
too..)
the long strip of customizable lights may be able
to render nyancat. so
there's
that!
a111: Logged on 2016-07-19 23:51 mircea_popescu: at
this point, project either delivers and is done or
takes on life of own. if
takes on life,
then 3. more wizards are added,
they slowly asm-ify
the loops, inside out.
a111: Logged on 2016-11-19 14:33 asciilifeform: which is why i realized
that i am doomed
to rewrite it yearly...

☟︎ ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: i have added more magic numbers
to enable your habits
Framedragger: pete_dushenski:
that sounds very nice, actually. would be amusing
to hax0r it,
though.. when
there's complexity,
there's
t3rrorism
pete_dushenski: and in other escapes, wilbur 'king of bankruptcy' ross is appointed as commerce sekretary by
trump. ross is 78-years-young
this day.
pete_dushenski: in other freedoms, china asked all uighurs
to hand in
their passports
today.
pete_dushenski: Framedragger: edmonton recently added a similar set-up
to its longest bridge (now suicide-safe! as per
http://www.contravex.com/2016/02/24/dont-jump-here/) but with maybe a half-dozen colours and programmable designs. it's actually pretty romantic when it has soft, warm, yellows flowing like
the northern lights across
the river valley during
the long cold winter lights, but
the system is readily abused for
shinohai: I forgot
there is also an !isup command
too ala old gribble
shinohai: pete_dushenski: will be sure it all gets included in next gpgram. and
thx for update, cheers!
Framedragger: here in glasgow,
there are a few bridges which are lit up with
these sorta-monochromic red/green lights, it's nice in
the beginning but looks boring after
the first five minutes of you being in
town. from
there on it's sorta obnoxious..
pete_dushenski: ya not bad at all eh.
the light projection
tech is certainly coming into its own. far more appealing and less obnoxious
than all
the led lighting mussing up building exteriors
too.
Framedragger: there's a ridiculous "rusted pipe" art installation somewhere not far from
that spot, it's pretty derp
Framedragger: pete_dushenski: o pretty nice! didn't know
that
thing was in place
there. (my hometown!)
BingoBoingo: "As much as we
try
to maintain a good relationship with you all, it does get old getting called a pedophile constantly." Huffman added: "Our community
team is pretty pissed at me, so I most assuredly won't do
this again." << Probably Xtend preview
pete_dushenski: tuck school of business at dartmouth is only program

☟︎ pete_dushenski:
http://archive.is/trSax << in other magic numbers, soi-disant 'us bidness skools'
take $1mn and divy it up between bitcoin and solidcoin/ethereum for a pretend 5-year investment period. lulz ensue when each
team makes videos justifying
their choices!
pete_dushenski: in other god damns, it looks like i managed
to give myself acute plantar fasciitis in one foot. apparently one can't just run 9km
through river valley
trails in stiff
trail running shoes after
taking a month off. now it's regimented mending lest it become chronic...
pete_dushenski: shinohai: a remiss is me. i missed jhvh1's latest pgpgram and ben_vulpes' wotpaste scarfed it before i could get
to it. damn my meatspace life, log skimming, and ben's aggressive magic numbers!
mircea_popescu: in other news nobody cares about,
the us&friends decided
the leaking of civilians from mosul is more
trouble
than it's worth, sealed it off, will proceed
to butcher
the remaining and blame isis for it.
mircea_popescu: lol wait, because if you
think libtards are ridoinculous you must be insane ?
BingoBoingo: And in reality
tv "A well-connected Kanye source
tells us Kanye’s psychological problems are significant enough so
that his insurance policy — which covers lost profits and financial obligations for cancelled concerts due
to illness — will almost certainly cover
the losses for
the 21 concerts he’s cancelled."
shinohai: I just realized I missed opportunity
to make a stolen semen pun in
that article.
mircea_popescu: sure. every whoremonger wins
the war with
the cunt every
time he
takes out his wallet.
mircea_popescu: the byzantine version
thereof,
that's as it should be.
BingoBoingo should have color
tested it because black laffs matter
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform very similar
to how
the us military works. hasn't won a single engagement since
the 90s, and you could ask "why
the expensive and brittle
theatrical machinery
then" ? and i'd answer
the same
thing.
