asciilifeform when riding d.c. metro, often saw ads for, e.g., fighter jet. and always wanted to call in and ask for quote. 'whaddayamean it ain't for sale to the public, there was this ad on the Red Line...' ☟︎
ben_vulpes: looks like a patek ad to me tbqh
asciilifeform: at any rate, the linked ad is somewhat misleading, reactors were not then and are not now delivered whole like lathe etc., but rather built on-spec like church organs.
asciilifeform: and it isn't as if it cost lunch money then.
asciilifeform: reactor can be had today.
ben_vulpes: point is the attitude that /reactor could be had/
ben_vulpes: what i find a bent panel, i'm going to put it back on the pallet?
asciilifeform: just that it was a hasty 'we need a photo before tuesday' 'but sir, we haven't sold any reactor yet'
ben_vulpes: and i sure as heck /would/ clamber around on the thing poking at its innards before getting it off the delivery pallet.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: well yes, you wouldn't level ON LOGS is the point.
ben_vulpes: a) /delivery/, generally one levels etc after pulling it off pallet but w/e, b) it's not a total shoop in the style of that retro pornshot mircea_popescu posted with the apple kb?
asciilifeform: the only one i ever had was that thing that gives you pie charts of 'users' screen resolution' etc.
a111: Logged on 2016-09-26 06:18 mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes why the heck is it mounted on wood blocks ?!
asciilifeform: because ibm sole-sourced part is JUST THE THING for a PHREEDOM-ENABLING comp, aha.
a111: Logged on 2016-02-08 19:32 BingoBoingo: In other news FSF certified the Talos Power8 workstation board. Looks like Stallman has a new computer.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-02-08#1399950 << lel, apparently 'talos' was a libreboot thing, i entirely forgot ☝︎
asciilifeform: who is even still tuned in there.
mircea_popescu: and time for a little more trolling
mircea_popescu: evidently, rms does not want to get negrated.
scriba: Logged on 2016-09-26: [14:59:14] <asciilifeform> (summary : seems like rms grew a spine for the occasion and it exercising the 'libreboot' trademark, and expelling the idiot with empty pockets)
asciilifeform: could pretend in some bar somewhere, instead of on the net , neh ?
mircea_popescu: asswipe has the choice of what, either hanging himself or else continuing to pretend he's a woman, and "cisgendered men" victimize it.
mircea_popescu: how do you mean "get tired" ?
asciilifeform: (summary : seems like rms grew a spine for the occasion and it exercising the 'libreboot' trademark, and expelling the idiot with empty pockets)
asciilifeform: don't these folks ever get tired ?
asciilifeform: 'Food for thought: All of the people who responded on the GNU Prog discuss mailing list are cisgendered men'
mircea_popescu: ahahaha. so /me notices "http://0.0.0.0:7888" as a referrer ; looks it up, turns out http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22422820/connecting-to-a-headless-nrepl-running-in-a-docker-container-from-another-contai
mircea_popescu: http://fexpr.blogspot.com.ar/2015/05/numberless-differentiation.html << guy's got a pretty interesting idea buried in all that ("Anyone with a bit of background in computer science has probably worked both with grammars and with term-rewriting calculi (though likely not in depth at the same time). Have you thought about the contrast between them?" &following)
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes why the heck is it mounted on wood blocks ?! ☟︎
mircea_popescu: should be lulzy if we ever pop one of those, with 10k+ deployments.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: they're ultra-common (see the raw 'dupes' page) but no mega-champ has been ~phuctored~ yet
mircea_popescu: moreover asciilifeform, if bitwise duped fw incl key were that common we'd see a lot more of these, rather than 3-4 at a time
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-24#1528253 << see also, re what these were. ☝︎
ben_vulpes: what is that, inline version control?
asciilifeform: http://85.47.20.107/view/login.html << dafuq is this.
mircea_popescu: well yes, the nature of the connection is unclear as of yet. but it's there.
asciilifeform: doesn't actually meant they're same box, or same chump, there's a mindboggling number of turdware routers etc with bitwise duped fw incl key
asciilifeform: ah yeah dupolade in there
mircea_popescu: unless of course you believe in the harmonic cosmic ray theory. which i suppose would qualify one for "quantum computing".
mircea_popescu: 85.47.20.* is now connected to 2.116.209.* and 217.57.196.* for example.
mircea_popescu: as a byproduct this is drawing an interesting graph of "who owns what"
asciilifeform: aaah nice heavy catch in them nets tonight.

BingoBoingo: amorphous sacks aren't the most stable things, tend to slosh, places stress in odd places
BingoBoingo: the kind of tons matter though
mircea_popescu: i dunno, looks like it can hadle a coupla tons
BingoBoingo: Sweet front end loader, might have to upgrade in a few years though
lobbes: I actually didn't mind it too much. but depressing, sure. economy non-existent
mircea_popescu: ohio is like the least popular state huh
BingoBoingo: Just wait till winter! You might not have one.
lobbes: good weather down here too
BingoBoingo: Sweet! Anywhere's better than Ohio.
lobbes: eh not too much. got a new gig and ended up moving outta the ohio
deedbot: http://qntra.net/2016/09/lizards-have-human-rights-too/ << Qntra - Lizards have human rights too!
mircea_popescu: now, who is to say that female in honolulu SHOULD or SHOULD NOT have a grape ? on what basis ? etc.
mircea_popescu: for example, since it's a funny one - prior to usian invasion, the traditional society of hawaii was nudist ; and women were forbidden from eating anything but tuber paste. no fruit ; no meat ; etc. this arrangement survived for millenia, but went away cca 19th century.
mircea_popescu: what, god should come from heavens and tell that girl elliot's been eyeing that she should go talk to him ; and otherwise gather up all the women and explain to them that they should listen to the men more ?
mircea_popescu: this is in my eyes exactly as it should be. the contorted proposition that "because [we make the meat] therefore [we should tell you what to do]" seems pretty ridiculous. if it is already the case then it's right and proper that it should be the case ; but if it isn't the case then the obvious "oh yeah ? you and whose army ?" sinks the entire argument.
mircea_popescu: the OTHER of them is, "who should tell who what to do". and this is - like everything else involving women - a very much on-demand thing. if you tell her what to do, she will. if you don't, she'll tell you.
mircea_popescu: anyway, there's two separate issues here. one of them is, "who brings food home and who eats". the fact remains that as averages and in general terms, men hunt and women nest. and this is a fact, and very much invariant throughout human society, pre or post letters.
asciilifeform: 'I know when ARPANET was being developed, they were interested in physical (wires-level) robustness (i.e., in case of war) – but I’m not aware of any scholarly research going on about how to protect TCP/IP from itself.'
mircea_popescu: even there it's dubious, as the writers of the period do not fail to inform you, from the decameron to the barber of seville.
mircea_popescu: i don't believe the "find a strong man" fantasy he discusses existed anywhere outside of say 1500 italy etc.
asciilifeform: . The government has somehow become the new providing husband, by taking money from anonymous men who have no say about their money. While women are still strongly financially dependent on men, men are simply unable to use the money they make for their own interests.'
asciilifeform: 'The fact that feminists want a stronger government is not a coincidence. While historically, women had to choose a wealthy husband for resources, they can now stay single, be lesbians, marry a poor man, or use the sperm bank, and the state will still transfer male taxes to them. Interestingly, within 10 years of women’s suffrage, the government doubled their tax revenue and expenditure in the USA
asciilifeform: but then again i have nfi, i'm all outta telepathy pills
asciilifeform: but re the other end of the pipe.
asciilifeform: i dun think author of subj was complaining re females not being usefully taxable.
mircea_popescu: how practical, well founded, sane etc the state is has no bearing however.
asciilifeform: not comparable with the state that is the subj of linked piece.
mircea_popescu: therein included - vikings during their fun years ; britain throughout ; the beyazit ottomans and whatever else you may wish to think of.
mircea_popescu: from classical china to pirate jamestown, the state rests on the backs of young virgin males.
mircea_popescu: this is an invariant throughout human society ; and reasonable.
