asciilifeform: 'i won't read logs, so i'll remora in chan' d00d, ever turned into a person.

asciilifeform: come to think of it, i dun recall ~one~ instance where a

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: a la http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-20#1842981 ☝︎

asciilifeform: 'yeah i totally want to transmit a MB of <><<>><<><><<<<><><><>>>< for erry 10 of text'

mircea_popescu: none of this bs "link an article at a time". you either give me proper select linkage or you get archive.is linked instead. that sort of thing.

mircea_popescu: yes, well... this gotta be a standard. not fucking "video conferencing". that's not 3d, that's dumb-d.

asciilifeform: i have one of these even nao. ( nao how to put it in a www-able form... )

mircea_popescu: the problem is this : given a flatfile of datapoints, convert that into 3d representation, that can be rotated, zoomed, shaved ; that is already colored correctly (meaning, as human would like it to be) and whose shaving and presentation can be scripted well (arbitrary and undefined well).

asciilifeform: if you wanted to display , somehow, legibly, a ~full~ welltris well -- this is not only not solved problem on 386, but not really imho solvable, on 2d screen

mircea_popescu: and in general why is any and all 3d so fugly ? we know for a fact this can be done well, solved problem on the 386 ffs, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-02#1762623 ☝︎

asciilifeform: i fiddled with 'cube' for a bit, so far pretty ugly. might post later.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: cuz it's a discontinuous function.

mircea_popescu: mod6 not a full year hence ; rest of the year. that's 4 months and change.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i thought lips permitted one to produce rotate-able cubes as a thing ? hm ? HM ?

asciilifeform: Mocky: really it wants to be a ~cube~ , x:Na, y:Nb, z:|Qa-Qb|, 1 if solution, 0 if not. but there isn't a satisfying way to draw this. so stuck with lolcat.gif

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: re the gif -- it isn't a full table by any means, only illustration of the arithmetical oddities at work

mircea_popescu: well, i can't imagine how she'd have gotten a single enzyme yet.

mircea_popescu: also, a) gotta start somewhere ; b) she's not working to impress you, she's working to impress me, meaning your only productive stance is "not like that, like ~this~" rather than "your work doesn't make the cut". ☟︎

asciilifeform: Mocky: there sadly cannot be a 'full' lolcat, all possible ones are finite slices

asciilifeform: holyfuq a 2nd log summary thing

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform anyway, more importantly, and better documentedly, he's the guy who forced inept jew (cohen) to sign mob girl marylin for a 3 year contract

mircea_popescu: nah, there was a brother also shot, robert or something

mircea_popescu: arguably. chicago outfit dood, iirc there was a conspiraci theory re "they did kennedy"

mircea_popescu: sooo, in eulora epic win, i got a 60.971 mn pop on polished small stones, at 7:11:58 local time ; and then a 3.043 mn pop on boulders, at 7:12:36. GO ME!

mod6: ben_vulpes brings up a good point about my regrind of his Excise Hash Truncation vpatch, I should put in the manifest.

mod6: alright Sir, sounds good. Gimme a bit, i'll make a new invoice for ya.

lobbes: oya, I could see myself doing a double-take in the same situation

mod6: lobbes: ah, ok! sorry, I was way confused because I saw that you had a current shell still in UY1.

lobbes: I just suddenly have a need again for it

lobbes: mod6, ben_vulpes: ah whoops. I did not mean to cause confusion. I meant: can I re-sign up for a new slice of shared hosting

mod6: (I may have to cancel that invoice I sent ya just a minute ago.)

mod6: lobbes: Are you currently using the hosting, or are you looking to get set back up going forward? And if so, great! Do you want just a shell account or do you want wp-mp too?

mod6: lobbes: that's weird, I don't even have you in the notes as being a shared customer

lobbesbot: mod6: Sent 14 minutes ago: <lobbes> plox to invoice me for a month of pizarro shared hosting

lobbes: !Qlater tell mod6 plox to invoice me for a month of pizarro shared hosting

mircea_popescu: problem is evidenrly a bad redirect (to itself)

mod6: jurov is in the process of trying to set up either a mirror or the entire ML on 'stormy', one of the foundation's servers in .uy.

mod6: Ladies and Gentlemen of TMSR~ : A regrind of Excise Hash Truncation & Call for Testers: http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2018-August/000308.html

asciilifeform: afaik south a -- dun have much in the way of either ( aside from possibly cu, but i suspect the latter has run through )

BingoBoingo: I kinda figured gems might be a proxy indicating interesting clays for the strip mining, al la Africa. At one point there were metals here, but Inca helpfully collated them for the Spanish.

mircea_popescu: nah, gems are a fool's ploy. metals is where it's at, and somehow the gods of metal decided only north hemisphere gets.

BingoBoingo: Brasil appears to have lots of mineral variety as evidence by having a gems industry, but hard to tell how that translates from my chair.

BingoBoingo: Agriculturally competent lookin from here... Mebbe more of a petite China?

BingoBoingo: There's maybe a couple food items in this apartment which are "Industria Argentina" by way of transit through there, but a whole lot of "Made In Brasil"

BingoBoingo: Well, the Argentine pesos fall is a long one which mircea_popescu has helped along. I dunno enough Portuguese to comment on the real beyond Brasileros envying dollar, but especially Euros and Pounds because single units of those are worth more than single units of theirs.

mod6: yeah, ive heard the arg peso, the brazil real, and turkish lira all took a bath with the EM chaos lately -- shitbuck had been rising... down now in recent days.

BingoBoingo: Especially compared to the 1.10/1.8 to 1.1/1.9 spreads on new years day http://www.thedrinkingrecord.com/2018/01/01/asado-fuegos-y-feliz-a-new-year-in-montevideo/

mod6: I haven't even gotten a chance to start the books yet, but I hope to this week.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-18#1842694 << i'd like to expand on this. 1) to dump a file, the better format is curl -Ls -o /dev/null -w %{url_effective} -X POST -F "pastebox=@file.asc" http://p.bvulpes.com -w %{url_effective} ; 2. to dump a pipe/process, the better format is eg item=`cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | gpg --yes --no-tty --trust-model always -aer mod6`; echo $(curl -Ls -o /dev/null -w %{url_effective} -X POST -F "paste ☝︎

mircea_popescu: and let's get this archived too : http://redditpromotion.com/ fucking priceless, dork looks EXACTLY like how you'd expect a dork who thinks "reddit is big!!!" would look.

BingoBoingo: Prolly just a little bit of refraction and corruption followed by almost-repetition

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo that's ok, i got her pretty well overwhelmed / drowning in tasks as a chronic condition.

mircea_popescu: a nice.

mircea_popescu: in other sorta-news, the identity of the yellow fellow that i like so much here was finally established! it's a fly tyrant, the great kiskadee!

mircea_popescu: kinda common occurence @bootcamp, this, too. "well bimbo... it turns out we don't speak a common language. we share some vocabulary, i guess, but i use the king's english, who's been dead for a century or two, and you're doing something or the other with unimemecode."

asciilifeform: i think i'ma stay on this here beach instead, lol, pretty good weather for these few wks in a yr

mircea_popescu: i suppose, pushing a point. i dunno, i guess in a sense it's the sad lot of senescence, to pretend community "with those crazy kids"

deedbot: 2018/08/08 01:39:01 <esthlos> (comms will still be shakey for a few days)

mircea_popescu: anyway ; i guess we add "need a religious fellow" on the list, alongside an artist and a not-braindead-chinese-female-adolescent and so on.

a111: Logged on 2016-07-10 22:04 mircea_popescu: danielpbarron good work. so the practical question here is, would you be personally interested in running a us tmsr church ?

trinque: hey folks, going to pack up the wallet hardware and move it to a new home this afternoon.

mircea_popescu: There was a problem with the NameServers you entered for the following domains: bimbo.club This is likely caused by the entered NameServers not being created yet

mircea_popescu: pro tip : endogamy is generally the strategy of the inadequate. there's a fucking reason prince gets himself gal from timbucktoo.

diana_away: mircea_popescu: I figured out the motorway exit our taxi took that time when we got there faster than you - it's quite a bit after the Sheraton, it doesn't seem to be marked in any reasonable way; there is only this name carved in greenery on the side as you go "villa real"; on the opposite side it's where it says country club santa ana

diana_away: as big as macaws but green and with a bit of yellow on the neck

mircea_popescu: a there you go.

diana_away: yes, there is this "refugio herpetologico" - basically a sort of zoo though mainly with rescued animals

mircea_popescu: a

mod6: It just does a 'graceful' mircea_popescu

mod6: Ok hang tight for a pizarro shared environment apache reload.

a111: Logged on 2018-08-26 16:58 asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i see the angle of 'if you aint a zek what do you care what the locals think' but 8y is a long time to be stuck inside a border, anywhere. ( and yes i get it, mircea_popescu travels by u-boat and dun need passports. but this is high pilotage. )

mircea_popescu: a ok.

mircea_popescu: people were shipped to previous gulag. current gulag, nobody shipped you tards there but conversely -- the "guardians" were shipped in (mostly from india, where cheap, though a lot of promote-locals also atr work)

asciilifeform: upstack, re zeks -- mircea_popescu is entirely right, a zek is not simply d00d with 'wrong passport', but pauper with no means of support outside of the gulag ( where he knows how to cut wood, or wash gold nuggets, or whatever, for a bowl of cabbage swill. ) speaking first-hand here. zek is simply folx who are not needed for anyffing anywhere.

mod6: ben_vulpes asciilifeform BingoBoingo : Alright, looks like ben did clean up the vhosts for ben.conf and nicoleci.conf -- there is a warning about determining the servers FQDN, but it does return a "Syntax OK".

asciilifeform: sed -rn "/\# Kitty Sex Sprite/{:a;N;/\#End Animations for Kitty's Body during Footjobs/{/.*/p;d};ba}" Kitty_Animations.rpy > xfer-anim.rpy << ahahahahawaaat

mircea_popescu: tbh, i've known a precious few who NEVER spent a month in the same jurisdiction, but it's a bit of a nasty life. closer to backpacking / travelling jew-gypo-salesman than anything.

a111: Logged on 2018-08-26 14:56 mircea_popescu: they won't let ~me~ bring ~my own slaves~ even. fucking determined to live, these remnants of a world empire.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i see the angle of 'if you aint a zek what do you care what the locals think' but 8y is a long time to be stuck inside a border, anywhere. ( and yes i get it, mircea_popescu travels by u-boat and dun need passports. but this is high pilotage. ) ☟︎

mircea_popescu: they actually don't. romanians like wolves. you can have an idiot mark or a whore mark, but no such thing as "bad guy".

asciilifeform: (hey what do they call 'wolf's ticket' in ro ? i.e. black mark of shame, sorta opposite of a letter of rec)

asciilifeform: typical conv, 'pet : banned from turkey! nooooo a: guesswat, ameri-passport worse than zimbabwe's, 'wolf's ticket' in half the planet'

a111: Logged on 2017-10-31 22:54 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-31#1731544 << everyone is, as a result of usg militant tardation. i can just drive into brazil. you -- can not. they "banned" turkish visitors, as if anyone from turkey could be arsed to go to the us ; turkey reciprocated, meaning about 70% of classical antiquity is now off limits to what in english passes for "the civilised world".

mircea_popescu: privateinternetaccess totally pwning this "i'm a cryptoretard" "market"

asciilifeform: i dun know of a 4y battery that costs <5bux.

asciilifeform: and if you're building a 100 $ photo panel in erry node, it ought to do proper long haul sw, a la http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-05#1831795 , rather than 100 metre small change. ☝︎

asciilifeform: hey recall, they ran out of souls to stuff in the new walkers, so naturally film projectors a la http://trilema.com/2018/and-today-in-fetlife-updates-sad-news/#selection-69.120-69.657 instead of people, and film projector playing same film N times gives N copies of same result, neh.

mircea_popescu: there's just no way to squeeze an article out of this shit, it's so information-nil. even a few chatlines are pushing it.

asciilifeform: and then mircea_popescu built the ro 'republicans' a house, and they sat and drank tuica for yr+ and 0 result iirc

mats: https://www.ondrovo.com/a/20170207-esp-consumption/ it looks more power hungry than expected in logs

a111: Logged on 2018-08-16 18:18 asciilifeform: in other noose, asciilifeform obtained and testing a LTC3108 , 'energy harvester', they've become cheapo

asciilifeform: cent for 8266, 8bux for a http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-16#1842253, another 10 for the passives/board/1F caps, a 5 for solar panel, still looking at not exactly vanishingly small cost per box ☝︎

mircea_popescu: can you argue with a cent ?

mircea_popescu: the charge of "contempt of court" (the "court" being in this case quite very personally a certain gettleman) in the new soviet roughly approximates the never-formally-codified charge of "insufficient love for batyushka".

mircea_popescu: this fellow thought that the court has no authority to tell him how to conduct his affairs. this is a capital point which'd have been readily obvious in the 90s, echoes of "cold war" and "What we're all about" ideological gargle still resounding in everyone's ears.

a111: Logged on 2017-06-05 16:13 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-05#1666045 << the way the lizards expect the shit to work is exactly in the way mp -saves-openbsd worked : as seen moneyz. recall the story of the us embassy spending a whooping 50k to start an "empire" of fake news tv stations etc ?

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo quite impressive huh. good thing they conquered... what was thart middle east city that we can't remember ? very important site of "coallition" "victory" every other week for a coupla years.

BingoBoingo: Amazing how they stopped talking and complaining about it within a week

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-05#1781380 << for the ~same reason perennial victim of "fraudster" would rather "hope" than complain. it's a mental issue. ☝︎
