Framedragger: content's unoriginal and uninteresting, as far as i can see. why plagiarism of #t in particular?
a111: Logged on 2017-04-15 14:09 mircea_popescu: incidentally Framedragger , do you have a working theory as why he didn't say "decentralized systems lab plagiarized #trilema" ?
Framedragger: re. http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-15#1644022 -- i don't really see where the plagiarism is. honest. the title ("collider")? the content (research had been done by monero project itself some time ago; *plenty* of discussion of RingCT outside #t (unless you define "discussion outside #t is not discussion", in which case you are right..tautologically))? ☝︎
mod6: now why you saw the INVALID seal message im not too sure. could be you have a stale key of his, or perhaps the seal wasn't quite named correctly.
mod6: In the new version, if a vpatch doesn't have *ALL* antecedents present in the flow, it is dropped on the floor.
mod6: If you're using V (99994) the reason that you won't see it in the flow is because it needs to be reground: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/Hu0ab/?raw=true
shinohai: http://archive.is/ICKui <<< hey BingoBoingo I didn't know SL had culture like this.
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, trump's tv scripts crew is engineering a "100th day govt shutdown". reality has over fiction the enduring advantage that fiction can't be this fucking ridiculous.
mircea_popescu: yes but this is not a particularly cogent argument becausae the people writing for the video effects don't particularily care about corectness.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-23 02:29 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-22#1647496 << had terrible video libs at the time this was all happening (mp's hs cs class was in pascal, for instance). so kids who were bright hated it because couldn't make little amiga-like platformers on their 386s.
Framedragger: ya i usually can't stand british 'jams', it's just ~sugar. which is what britons eat, anyway
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: hah! well, i don't know any colloquial / actually local words for this other than the (generic boring), you know, "jam".

mats: there's more but i can't remember the acronym
asciilifeform: that it isn't 'up to sync with INDUSTRY!!1!!!'
asciilifeform: Framedragger: that it ain't c/cpp/shitscript/whatever.
shinohai: If I don't haz to go to class, then I need not know what class is :D
Framedragger: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-22#1647480 << wait that's not a joke? omg. you're all like "are you surprised??", but i honestly didn't think it'd go that low ☝︎
asciilifeform: (as described in Framedragger's link. 'why does this box need crew to push a button?' 'BECAUSE! stfu terrorist' 'didn't grass grow in orbit 10,001 times in this identical way?' 'stfu terrorist' etc.
asciilifeform: liquishit that doesn't pass the laugh test.
asciilifeform: ( btw iss doesn't even live in outer orbit. closer to... outer atmosphere. )
mircea_popescu: there ISN'T GOING TO BE a gps.
mircea_popescu: the argument of irrelevancy is not as to isolation. it is as to irrelevancy. if the modernist delusion of "hi i can of myself and by myself choose what problems to apply myself to" rots one's brain, the result isn't necessarily a loner ; but what difference does that make ?
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-22#1647389 << best i can tell, he suffers from the "maybe i won't have to do any laundry after all" geek disease. ☝︎
asciilifeform: i gotta wonder why the d00d ain't here.
ben_vulpes: https://youtu.be/Jgv5ixxgTsQ?t=153 << couple of birds get really surprised around 2:30
mod6: maybe it's just the example that isn't mean to bean compiled.
asciilifeform: it isn't as if broadcasting nonsense costs'em ~any.
shinohai: http://archive.is/I1CqK <<< Barry Shillbert: Buy mah shitcoin picks of the month so I can make use of all that Bitcoin ya'll don't need.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-21 20:44 mircea_popescu: davout i don't get it, what'd you ask around for ? people in the wot who you know but we somehow don't ?
trinque: also can't deny that it wasn't the document that did anyting; the folks who wanted USGism killed more of the ones that didn't
trinque: words have meanings yes, and oughtn't need smearing of extra "no really they do" around, which immediately reminds one of OSS.
mircea_popescu: they weren't in the thing.
trinque: firearm discharge depends on acreage iirc, but I don't think anybody would arrest you for killing a fucking squirrel around here.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: just when i thought that usgdom couldn't possibly surprise with nonsense
shinohai: nope it performs pretty much exact same functions, though it shouldn't be too difficult to change it from buttfunex
mircea_popescu: davout i don't get it, what'd you ask around for ? people in the wot who you know but we somehow don't ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: because this is exactly what i wanted to do three hours ago and couldn't.
trinque: Framedragger: he might want something, and then what? y'all either deal or don't.
a111: Logged on 2016-11-10 17:10 mircea_popescu: no, actually, it concerned an isp which, like any other isp, can't afford to actually pay a lawyer to read all the legalse spam being thrown their way. the guilty party here is the state of california, as per http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-18#1524561
davout: i'll ask around if people in my local meatwot have some experience with local DCs, don't think they'd bite
mircea_popescu: it's just not fucking worth it trying to "t&c" so to speak.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform wasn't it in china ? i thought.
trinque: point being whatever is being done, the host isn't doing it
mircea_popescu: trinque i seriously wouldn't expect this sort of problem. who the fuck is going to be doing that, i wish to know.
mircea_popescu: if one needs to read a pile of boilerplate to not be stupid, the pile of boilerplate ain't gonna help anyway.
mircea_popescu: Framedragger there is no fucking t&c.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: customer doesn't have a raid == 'well what did they expect' i guess - granted, that actually makes sense. just need to be extra clear in T&Cs...
mircea_popescu: and besides, you were here every day anyway even when it didn't pay you anything.
mircea_popescu: your job does not include "24/7 customer support", because it doesn't have why to include it.
asciilifeform: ( also requires keeping not only own skin, but money , in places reich can't easily get to ; getting hired help who aren't stoolies, also, somewhere; and similar )
Framedragger: cock.li guy didn't give a fuck
mircea_popescu: just don't do a fucking rg.
asciilifeform: that ain't 15k us.
mircea_popescu: and in general don't get into fucking arguments with me about my numbers being off when i buy these weekly and you do yearly if at all.
mircea_popescu: out of the money i wasted since 2015 they could have burned 10 and i wouldn't have actually noticed the difference.
Framedragger: so just to clarify the technicalities in my mind, in your head this doesn't even imply registering for an isp as 'normally' understood (getting an autonomous system number assigned). which means you may not even be able to control reverse ip records. not a lotta.. power.. if shit goes down. which it will.
trinque: comcast isn't an ISP; it's a tv company
asciilifeform: but possibly it isn't trivial ?
mircea_popescu: fully specified, clearly profitable job, won't do it. seesh.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i've heard you before and i hear you now. i just don't have much hope for extant internet. unreliable-low-bandwidth shortwave relay net almost seems like a longer term strategy here, no?
asciilifeform: 'i'ma fall on this grenade' doesn't grow naturally, no.
mircea_popescu: i want something like a dual or quad e-2650 say, with a coupla fuckgoats physically installed. i can't say "do this" in #trilema, in 2017.
Framedragger: i agree that it'd be a good contribution, 'while it lasts'. maybe i'm too pessimistic, but i can't see how the 'refuses usg requests' lasts for any time after 'first request received'.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i don't know for a hard fact, but there was that ukr.
asciilifeform: it ain't quite like, e.g., buying steel pipe, you can buy from x today and from y tomorrow and meanwhile you have a warehouse of pipe, so no prob.
mircea_popescu: i don't see how this is any kind of problem.
Framedragger: asciilifeform: oh shit. i looked at snipped of code, thought, gcc wouldn't catch this, that's all. sorry.
Framedragger: meh, gcc wouldn't have caught it to begin with
mircea_popescu: i didn't get nuttin.
davout: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htg0VKt3j_w&feature=youtu.be&t=84
asciilifeform: weren't there instances of folx entirely uninvolved with aviation (save for buying the ticket) 'landing with help from atc' ?
davout: of course it doesn't drop
a111: Logged on 2017-04-21 05:50 davout: yeah, i can't think of any multi-crew single piston engines
davout: yeah, i can't think of any multi-crew single piston engines ☟︎
davout: i don't think it does matter that much, there's usually two pilots because there's more buttons
davout: i don't think it makes any difference from a safety pov
davout: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-20#1646602 <<< doesn't work that way ☝︎
mircea_popescu: in other "climate science", "somebody actually gives a shit about all the libertard agitprop" "there's more than a handful of sjws, truly, really, believe!!!" "nyt has more reach than trilema" and "if you don't have sou's hot whopper in your reader you really should" news, http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/X09iH/?raw=true
ben_vulpes: in other "ain't got nuffin to say, but gonna say it anyways" entries: https://freedom-to-tinker.com/2014/10/27/bitcoin-mining-is-np-hard/
asciilifeform: it isn't as if it will do anything against their usual mode of death -- being thrown into oncoming traffic
asciilifeform: it ain't a car, has no suspension, no gearbox
pete_dushenski: not really gangster enough, nor sporty enough, for my particular tastes. $60k isn't crazy for A truck, but not for that one imo.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-20 13:52 mircea_popescu: yes. it doesn't mean "money-as-property" in the sense of "old destroyed world, i get to keep my money". it means money as property in the sense of, money IS A PROPERTY of other objects. like being the color red.
pete_dushenski: of course, same could be said of air-cooled porsche or 50s ferrari, but neither of these sports cars were made in the kinds of quantities the toyotruck was. then again, the quantity of unrusted, unbagged units probably isn't all that far off the mark.
pete_dushenski: lol all of ontario rental properties now subject to 'rent control' capping rate of increase at that of inflation WITH MAX OF 2.5%YOY. because if inflation is higher than 2.5% it doesn't count so don't be a terrorist mkay. lol that place is so broke.
asciilifeform: can't speak for others, but i find it difficult to take such a fella seriously.
asciilifeform: ftr the 'revcontent' -- '16 things flashlight sellers don't want you to know about the 16 best selfies taken before death' etc. is loathesome
BingoBoingo: Aha, comp usa didn't sell machines. They sold "service plans" and "financing"
trinque: re: musl and X, you have to tell it in xorg.conf what order to load modules in. had this for intel, but don't know the proper incantation yet for amd/ati
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you don't get it : the russians did it.
asciilifeform: https://archive.is/Ihgo4 << and then debian revokes his commit. as if it weren't 'tor exit node operating', haskell-teaching, fine folx who made debian what it is today, poetteringolade
mircea_popescu: yes. it doesn't mean "money-as-property" in the sense of "old destroyed world, i get to keep my money". it means money as property in the sense of, money IS A PROPERTY of other objects. like being the color red. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: it wasn't in my text.
mircea_popescu: that doesn't mean you're now at liberty to savage all over the livingroom finery.
mircea_popescu: that doesn't really enter into any of this. you asked for a disjunction i gave you the genus and specific difference.
mircea_popescu: and i don't mean "cultural pockets" as in, people from chicago talk funny. i mean isolated cultural pockets as in, the jefferson-hamilton debate of 1700 is still live and kicking in 2000, argued in the sense of dumb rehashing by the same people in different costumes.
mircea_popescu: this isn't a nation you're discusing, it's a spot of dog vomit, a chimera of isolated cultural pockets.
mircea_popescu: this isn't to say that the previous system was any good -- it truly was about as good as the soviet union, which is to say worse than nothing.
mircea_popescu: i ended up with both mapping to "orlol" in my head now i can't distinguish irl.
