http://archive.is/8Qzdr << '"He
turned sideways
to be sure
that we would see
that he has an open carry gun, which is legal, and is fine, but it's intimidating," she said. Parks said
that his firearm is legal, and
that he had no ill intention by carrying it. "We're not a
threat
to anybody,
the only
threat is ignorance, and ignorance breeds fear," he said.' <<
trump supporters edging closer
to openly gunning
mircea_popescu: glassing dun work as advertised ; much like every other part of
the us materiel.
mats: oughta just glass
the place
mircea_popescu: (guess based on
the observation
that much as was
the case in medieval warfare (among people disinclined
to fight, such as italians),
the arabs arrived at a courtier's agreement as
to what constitutes "sufficient honorable defense".)
ben_vulpes: macs belong
to apple, customer just gets
to depreciate
them while running xcode or chrome
pete_dushenski: turns out
there was no need anyways. aapl mysteriously hosts
them. quite despite expectations
to
the contrary.
mats: nao
taking bets for how many hours it'll
take for iraqi forces

pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: it's a mac
thing needed
to run alf's dieharder
tests.
thestringpuller: Didn't realize how easy it is
to connect
to IRC via sockets. Far simpler
than HTTP by a long shot...
pete_dushenski: mats: all good. looks like
the apple 'developer' page hosts all
the old ones after all. surprising but
true.
mats: i have five boxes of varying models i can
test, but will need
to wait

mircea_popescu: overheard in my room : "ehm...

mircea_popescu: in other early christian obscura :
the 6th bishop of antioch (teofil, dead by 200) wrote a book "To Autolickus".
shinohai: so your god has power
to protect hot girls from bees
mircea_popescu: lol

tall young chick
to go
towel-naked in
their
thing ? someone's seriously dedicated
to
these stilted coffins.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron it's prolly be more practical

to
them ; bees don't move so well.
th3nolo: shinohai el Relampago del Catatumbo is one of
the best
thing of
this country!

shinohai: its a
tome free for all! stamp in
the babel of choice
mircea_popescu: well... not exactly need. but apparently we have fun subverting
the socialist superstate notions of political
time.
mircea_popescu: ah right you are. i was for some reason
thinking of
the byzantine style
jhvh1: 12th of

mod6: i'll re-run
the
thing.
mod6: (20:06) <+asciilifeform> and incidentally,
this goes for everybody, i'm collecting dd if=/dev/random of=shitball.bin bs=1 count=8388608 && dieharder -a -g 201 -f shitball.bin && ent shitball.bin outputs from anyone who can be bothered
mod6: check out
the last line of
the
test. "command not found: ent", however, i copied
the command exactly from your original:
pete_dushenski: o hey former alberta premier from
two
terms ago can 'has accident' in style of
total ceo. a memorable departure for an otherwise forgettable figure.
mod6: lol, "this isn't fucking
tanning."
shinohai buys adspace on
this page for epi-pens, profits
shinohai: how many bitcoin would it
take
to get danielpbarron
to send
the night in one
☟︎ mod6: asciilifeform: still running; on rgb_lagged_sum
test #19
mircea_popescu: in other flavour news, /me household proceeded
to
turn a dozen hard boiled eggs + five unboiled eggs into deviled eggs.
the final production was evaluated at a shade under 3000 calories, of which i ingurgitated half in one sitting. i feel very pleasantly full ; and may
turn into a boa.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: no fair enough, i mean
that's
the plan! and i wouldnt do
that before doing
this other more important stuff first. :)
mircea_popescu: Framedragger only asked because earlier you were
talking about doing more stuff lol

trinque: Framedragger: I can help you fix
that python error; ping me when available.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: no. i know it's still
there, and i know it's been a long
time. it's in my plan. maybe even
this weekend, if i can make
time. i'll ping you. apologies for rapid slow-down of productivity with regards
to #trilema :)
mircea_popescu: Framedragger btw ever got around
to fixing
that
thing which makes scriba go dysfunctional ?
mod6: also, if you want, i can
try
to run
the above command on
this apple macbook pro i have access
to; if you like.
mod6: asciilifeform: what's
the diff between -g 201 and '-g 200' mentioned in lastnight's link?
thestringpuller: like libsecp256k1 or whatever crap
those power rangers created
trinque: what
the hell is
this "no brushing
teeth" ?
pete_dushenski: lol i have a badass life all
things considered and need no cheering up,
though i appreciate
the
thought. but i can be no more lenin nor laika
than alf. i'm boyar, not barbarossa.
pete_dushenski wonders what planet he is living on where he is as useful
to republic as alf
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: xenophon, rite. /me is actually working on
this
tome atm.
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: while useful conversations happen in channel, i have little doubt
that shiva would be more productive if he weren't reading and reposting yarvin, bbc, el reg, or whatever 'sekoority' bloggers. it's really not hard for anyone
to imagine.
pete_dushenski: in other success, looks like
there's increasing
traction for
the
theory
that
the
terracotta warriors were directly inspired by
the greeks and may have even been overseen by greek sculptors, predating marco polo by a millennia in
terms of contact between east and west.
mircea_popescu: evidently
teh enlightened policies of
the centralised socialist state, from misrepresenting it as a market
to whatever
the fuck
they do work splendidly :
the worst on record dates from last year.
pete_dushenski: too bad
there's not more logs
to keep me warm. quieter around here without
turbo-alf.
pete_dushenski: anyways, looks like a hot chocolate kind of day
today.
the snow started lightly last week but is coming down in earnest
today. prolly 10cm on
the way.
mircea_popescu: some dude,
tall old
total nut face, butchered an infant in a very sexual manner on
tape, apparently
tortured a bunch of others. had ran off from au
to
the philipines for some legal reason.
mircea_popescu: anyway.
there's evidently stuff like say peter scully's being produced.
the notion
that some sort of market drives
this however is ridoinculous.
