a111: Logged on 2016-09-12 09:28 mircea_popescu: should have a proper list of commands rather
than a few words description of what it does
though.
scriba: Logged on 2016-09-12: [21:33:04] <asciilifeform> not if i have nfi where
to send'em, shinohai
scriba: Logged on 2016-09-12: [21:08:38] <phf> i guess
the idea is
that you do "$help" and all
the bots harass you with pm's of what
they can do?
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: anyways, why do you ask about
the mega-thread ?
pete_dushenski: speaking of which, phf could a111 read out url
titles ? or has mp nixed
this function ?
ben_vulpes: pdx insider baseball.
twitter account in question is a good bit of "ted wheeler is a rich white out of
touch dipshit" agitprop.
a111: Logged on 2016-09-12 03:05 pete_dushenski is glad
to see ben_vulpes blogging again
ben_vulpes: i went
to later you and your nick completed
trinque: where does putting hatch chile on my dick before sex fall in
the prank
to assault continuum?
trinque: chopped a bunch of
them and went ahead and
touched my eye
trinque: so hatch chiles,
they're delicious
phf: hmm, i'm
thinking maybe "grep" search should stay case-sensitive..
phf: proper unicode search (rather
than octet matchin,
the way it's doing it now) particularly with case-insensitivity
takes like 40% performance hit.. so deferring on it for now
phf: PeterL: search now case insensitive, but for english only. lmk if
there are still issues. i kind of hacked it up by mapping A-Z
to a-z during read. pretty sure last
time i read
the paper i had some elegant solution in mind, but it's been so long, i've forgotten what it was
a111: Logged on 2016-09-12 13:58 mircea_popescu: no, we're
talking 17k different ips, plenty with garbled or no user agent, so you know. linked behind a password "protected" forum or w/e.
trinque: lol, oh fuck we're about
to concensus protocol!
trinque: asciilifeform: so I have
to mother-may-i
to each other bot
then
trinque: but it'll just mean later someone says
to me "a111 was gone and deedbot silent, fuck you!"
trinque: I'm not adding a bunch of retarded state
to my bot
to be polite
to phf's et al
trinque: and I can for example implement everything everyone else has over
time and when
theirs goes away, we shrug
shinohai: I'm just following republic consensus accord
to
the laws of
the bickening
trinque: send
the bot in question a "help" pm
trinque: why do I need
to see your command
that results in PMs ?
phf: i guess
the idea is
that you do "$help" and all
the bots harass you with pm's of what
they can do?
Framedragger: (heh nice nod
to uk nuclear submarine policy asciilifeform)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you should prolly write a lighthouse
thingamajig spec and ping
trilema.
mircea_popescu: lose out on
that whole "i want
to fuck a quadriplegic" crowd.
mircea_popescu: or you know, not gays because chicks might not show up. how about
transshitheads and people with disabilities.
phf: it's already
the de facto rule. i
think i saw maybe 5 black people in
the whole 7 days. (one said
that his nickname is "nerdy digger")
mircea_popescu: what's worse,
to outbid
teh inspektion der konzentrationslager and
then insult
the ~11.5% slice or
the ~2.5% slice ?
phf: i suspect nobody cares enough
to bid on a desert at $7 million bezzles, what would be
the appeal?
mircea_popescu: almost worth it
to do it and
then exclude all black people.
mircea_popescu: that
this hasn't deteriorated into an endless battle of injunctions is even more shocking. bejewels, not even
the lawyers work in
the us anymore ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: so how much btc would it cost me
to organize burning man instead of "bmorg" whatever
the fuck
that is.
phf: i suspect blm are
the first one
to get your
mircea_popescu: and you'd better not say "us govt" because
then i expect proper bidding yes ?
mircea_popescu: that
this affair hasn't spontaneously degenerated into about 500 different, vaguely connected camps is
testament
to
the sheer and amazing lack of
testosterone in
that population.
phf: i
think
the way it works is
that bmorg
technically rents out
the entire black rock desert, and
then puts
the festival somewhere in
the center
mircea_popescu: what if you park your van right NEXT
to
their invisible fence, and start giving out free beer for
tits ?
phf: a moving object on such a flat space will light up with even most cursory of sweeps, so you can keep
the whole concentration camp aspect under
the radar
mircea_popescu: gensets for spotlights for
to make sure gets $$$ from ustards ?
phf: it's a very large and flat desert,
there's no "just walking in" without being noticed. all
they need
to do is line of sight
the perimeter more often
than it'll
take you
to get
to perimeter
mircea_popescu: we didn't stay anyway, i have a very short
tolerance for pompous idiocy
these days. but i imagine
the whole "ticket
to go
to desert camp" must be very much
the same
thing. what,
they got chicken wire around
the perimeter and watchtowers ?
mircea_popescu: i
tell her i dun have any ; she explains
that... "it's not her rules". i
turn around, ask guy
to open door as we're leaving,
they go frenzied on
the phones, eventually girly is like "no problem, no problem".
mircea_popescu: we show up, it's like a locked door. but i happen
to know
the doorman, so he opens up and we go in, at which point girly wants...
to see id.
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, i was recently invited at some "theatric performance" in a very nice old building here, i suppose
the local best-effort equivalent of one of
those ny
things, artsy chicks daughters/wives of lawyers etc.
trinque: dunno how or if
they police it. I don't go.
trinque: mircea_popescu: nope. you have
to buy a
ticket
to go
to equality camp.
mircea_popescu is very happy he sat down
to
try and pin down
that spec.
trinque: they don't get
to apply
the filter of cost and
then deny it!
trinque: thestringpuller: where
the fuck is
this "decommodification [sic]" in
the
ticket price of going, lol
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform at a young enough age
though, it easily passes for "age specific idiocy" and you don't notice.
mircea_popescu: yeah right, because i'm going
to fuck roadkill
to pacify
the natives now.
phf: the core of
the argument "if you bring your supermodel, she must be covered in alkaline dust by friday, otherwise she looks `too clean`"
phf: bm has always been bezzle rich, it's
the big party for jwzs, and
the actual confrontation is between bezzle rich san francisco hippies who "get it" and bezzle rich new york preppies who want
their van fulls of paid-for bored and disinterested supermodels
mircea_popescu: anyway,
the problem is evidently
that
the few were afraid of
the many ; and
the many smelled
this and fucked
them. wealth isn't actually involved,
tis a matter of fear.
phf: it's very much an act from cause place by design, and if mp comes as mp and does his mp
thing, only people who will complain should and must be fucked with.
