asciilifeform: equality coming out of her ears.

asciilifeform: 'some more equal than others' (tm)

asciilifeform: lol.

asciilifeform: serbia's mouth is a little too full of nato cock

asciilifeform: where in what blockchain can you stuff fiat.

asciilifeform: then uninteresting

asciilifeform: punkman: cribbed.

asciilifeform: what you do << 'what do you do when a shell lands in your trench? jump up twenty metres and scatter yourself around.'

asciilifeform: chance of this, vs. asteroid ?

asciilifeform: same as the ancient question 'why does god need a starship'

asciilifeform never understood why these needed investment

asciilifeform: aha

asciilifeform: how are sd and jd more than simple chumpatronic pumps ?

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-03-2014#560583 ☝︎

asciilifeform: ThickAsThieves: usd is a 'tar baby'

asciilifeform: your isp also may succumb to temptation to nudge a decimal.

asciilifeform: (not the 'genuine article,' clearly, but in the spirit of 'ilsa, she-wolf of auschwitz' for germans)

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: sovpr0n ?

asciilifeform: '"MAGNETS! Wrap your disks up in a pillow case with lots of magnets - Solar Flares hate that." "Wow! Thanks."'

asciilifeform: 'I turn the page on the excuse sheet. "SOLAR FLARES" stares out at me. I'd better read up on that.'

asciilifeform: obligatory:

asciilifeform: for them to be unable to conspire with eachother << what'll you do? search their rectums for radios, then build each into own oubliette ?

asciilifeform: aha.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: re: tango piece: did you take the creature home as a pet ?

asciilifeform: (maori, obligatory, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pai_M%C4%81rire#The_chants )

asciilifeform: 'North, north-by-east, nor'-nor'-east, nor'-east-by-north, north-east, colony—Attention! / Come to tea, all the men, round the niu—Attention!'

asciilifeform: (or drunken impostor. don't lose keys, people will wonder.)

asciilifeform: a fellow i know in meatspace.

asciilifeform: KODE_YETI: he's b00lcrap

asciilifeform: you can use them in a sunlit room, for instance.

asciilifeform: the 14-bit monochrome 'eizos' are quite unlike ordinary lcd

asciilifeform: (actually never mind, i have an earlier 'radiforce' in other room, 1600x1200)

asciilifeform: that's a bit unfair. trinitron ~= theoretically infinite contrast ratio (save the odd stray electron)

asciilifeform: the gov. approval thing is for use in surgeries

asciilifeform: lol i have that one!

asciilifeform: 'how can it exist, someone'd have drunk it up'

asciilifeform: same as the proverbial century-old wine bottles.

asciilifeform: don't be so quick to say 'never.' i went recently to a junk peddler, he has a sealed in box 'vic-20.'

asciilifeform: (21+ in., trinitron, virginal)

asciilifeform can't find a usable crt for $maxint

asciilifeform: was.

asciilifeform: 600 lines.

asciilifeform: (somewhere in china, ntsc/pal picture tubes are still made. you don't want these.)

asciilifeform: the last trinitron knockoff, afaik, rolled off the conveyor in early '09.

asciilifeform owns a few 'eizo'

asciilifeform: decimation: 'eizo' and 'barco' make almost usable lcds, for those applications

asciilifeform: decimation: probably all faded now.

asciilifeform: neato

asciilifeform: nah, here

asciilifeform: i was there, we weighed it...

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: that fellow grew a 15kg watermelon.

asciilifeform: pronounce as 'champions' for extra bite.

asciilifeform: homo chumpiens isn't meant to keep his iPnohe for longer than a year, or the like.

asciilifeform: lol why would 'they'.

asciilifeform: decimation: OLED aging makes crt phosphours look indestructible.

asciilifeform: shade >> yes!

asciilifeform: (there is always - more flesh.)

asciilifeform: flesh is cheap, fine machinery - costly.

asciilifeform: lol

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the reaction pictured.

asciilifeform: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRhmNROtH44 << interesting to students of chemistry as well as noob machinists who would, had they not seen it, mounted Al shaft in PTFE bearing...

asciilifeform: some folks have approximately 24h clock, think we're malingerers. what can i say.

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: ever meet a cat?

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: nope.

asciilifeform: 29 -> not so bad. resynches with non-mutants weekly or so.

asciilifeform: !up upme_boolcrap

asciilifeform merely dreams of living his built-in 26-hour circadian rhythm.

asciilifeform: the difference between 'rarely' and 'never' is often more palpable than between 'daily' and 'rarely.'

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: don't misunderstand the original gripe. the bell is annoying precisely because it rings - rarely.

asciilifeform: reduction to practice - another matter.

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: many things 'can be had' in principle - e.g., mircea_popescu's kit.

asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: http://www.american-buddha.com/sheckleycanyoufeel.3.htm

asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: see robert sheckley's short story 'petrified world.'

asciilifeform is not entirely innocent of exercise, is fond of walking around endlessly.

asciilifeform: aha

asciilifeform: which 'easy'

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: multiple jobs, none of which have fixed hours as such

asciilifeform: http://chemistry.stackexchange.com/users/4296/uncle-al << apparently al schwartz is on 'stack exchange'...

asciilifeform: ;;google faraday cage

asciilifeform: upme_boolcrap: tough one.

asciilifeform: !up upme_boolcrap

asciilifeform not particularly enamoured of gentoo, but there is no real alternative.

asciilifeform: mostly.

asciilifeform: or forget about the crazies and run alone.

asciilifeform: set up once, then live. like building house.

asciilifeform: nothing terribly peculiar

asciilifeform: aye

asciilifeform: (not only mine, many folks)

asciilifeform: favourite wm

asciilifeform: !s ratpoison

asciilifeform: 'ratpoison'

asciilifeform: no emacs in this picture.

asciilifeform: decimation: they stack well.
