mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i should care what people i don't know wish to preserve ?
as it happens, i don't.
mircea_popescu: if they did or if they didn't, the "i had nothing to do with it" defense is ironclad
as far
as that goes.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform they've got real sloppy with it, partly because nobody buys it anyway, partly because bureaucrats are deeply uncreative (in this case, practically : affraid of "revealing" shit through the pc.
as if they actually had something left to reveal.)
ben_vulpes: there was a screensaver that did this
as well
mircea_popescu: our being the keyword there, not democracy
as the naive reader may imagine
mircea_popescu: wrong datatype, "wot" may not be used
as "basis for central behaviour"
mircea_popescu: general population is capable,
as practically verified by my whip holding hand, to do all sorts of wholesome things.
mircea_popescu: i did not like ripple,
as i don't like this, because it requires a level of financial acumen that is not available in the general population
trinque: asciilifeform: ftr the argument wasn't about whether kept in pants; it was that if kept in pants, might
as well not exist
mircea_popescu: subjective value,
as judged by you ? it doesn't. objective value,
as in, the ship of state is being sailed by idiots into the shoals ? 100%.
mircea_popescu: yes, there's no such thing
as perfect bitcoin wrt work functions.
mircea_popescu:
as opposed to you know, bitcoin, where if you do the hash you get the coin, anyone else be damned.
mircea_popescu: the objection never was
as far
as i can discern that linus did it (unless of course one is to give voice to the "feminist" cows), but that he seems to have given the keys away
a111: Logged on 2016-10-20 22:53 asciilifeform:
as i see it , this is not satisfactorily solvable, the author cannot prove that he did not retain a crib sheet to the keyz.
mircea_popescu: these aren't usually the same people
as come up with anything worth reading.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-10-20#1557353 << well, it's sad, but i can't say i'm disappointed, because i had no expectation otherwise. the psychology of the alt-coin purveyor is very much
as exemplified by that covertress chick : ambitious, mommy told her she's special which she believes, and "problems" "can always be overcome". preferably - by someone else. you know, what's washington gonna do about it.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: well some things were important, such
as : did she get it somewhere her parents might see ?
mircea_popescu: but in any case, no hymen = fair game. and
as there was need for easy visual identification to know whom to invite to parties... the sluts got inked.
mircea_popescu: anyway. when i was a kid, tattoos meant a thing and that thing only : she fucks. there exists no majority age in romania, a girl's a woman the moment she starts doing it, which can happen
as early
as 12, though
as a rule it's more around 15.
thestringpuller: well isn't solving a block the same
as finding a time delay crypto puzzle?
mircea_popescu: every one is always going to be representable
as "in a kettle".
mircea_popescu: it is. in order for you to get the whole set you must a) break rsa keys
as numerous
as the whole set and b) magically intercept all communications, even those happening outside of any set that includes you.
mircea_popescu: and since we're on it, let's define terms. matriarchy - an arrangement built among the worst in society, who are weak, inconsequential, ambitious and envious. they tend to spend a lot of time gossiping - which is speech without purpose - and dedicate themselves to a very pedestrian sort of magico-technology, aiming to protect, their worthless flesh
as well
as their miserable progeny. this necessarily decays into a quest for c
mircea_popescu: (and for bonus lulz - according to THEMSELVES, the pashtun are jews. unlike the people you and i know
as jews, who are idiots, the good jews from afghanistan heard of the last prophet and sent envoys to muhammad.)
Framedragger: thestringpuller: yeah you're totally right and i really like the api - it's nice! it does seem that to make sure everything incl hrtf works on a person's PC it needs to be installed to system dirs and then linked dynamically
as folks had problems with static linking; and apparently for windows the 'proper' way to do it is to first install creative's openal version, and *then* install openal-soft on top
Framedragger: the -soft fork of openal seems very decent enough. i was hoping for something high/lazy-level for graphics so i don't have to deal too much with it (it'd be just 2d shapes anyway, no textures etc, super simplistic), and lower-level for audio so i can mess around with it. openal-soft
as of now best contender
Framedragger: unity hsa this oculus audio sdk which does HRTF and everything, but no occlusion. openal-soft does the latter
as well
as HRTF
Framedragger: (still not sure if that rootkit is basically same
as superfish. the latter is just in software
as i take it; the former is a lenovo superduper software update solution which can download the latter(?) and resides in BIOS which is scary)
AforA: read about the book...romanian? talk about synchronicity, I was just reading this guys work, and it seemed relevant to the point about domain invalidation from V:
http://fs.gallup.unm.edu/florentinsmarandache.htm. hm. and
as to answer your question mircea: the non-log part being absorbing the website.
mircea_popescu: mod6 the main consideration there, strategically, would be that while foundation's conservative finances are certainly the path to victory, the absence of any and all expenditures is probably by now becoming a drag - why'd someone donate his tax dues when the coin is just going to sit ? he might
as well donate it mentally and let it sit in his own pocket. sooner or later something will hafta be done, or else why bother. somet
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: I will be, but
as of yet have not even googled for a guide on how to do so.
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu:
as a "client": kiwiirc on a bad connection, beirc if in the mood or default to emacs "host": nfi, never done it.
phf: check your pm, but since that's a public question, i'll also answere here. i'm not going to go through work of releasing of logger in the immediate future, but i can dedicate some time to making sure logger can attach and track multiple channels, host masamune logs for you. this is aligned with a cleanup work that i was going to do, and i might
as well do it next
mircea_popescu: this is a myth, much exactly the same
as "masturbation will make you blind".
mircea_popescu:
as if i actually give a fuck how many dicks it can or does take.
mircea_popescu: it's ~just
as stupid for the kid inquestion to imagine the state is good and paying taxes is not rape
as it is for the same kid to imagine whoring is a future plan and so on.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-10-19#1556744 << the problem of the socialist state is that
as it hijacks terminology to try and get an unwilling society to implement its policy, the ACTUAL subjects of the terminology and the PRETENDED subjects of the terminology become disjunct. and so this constant apparent hypocrisy whereby they wish to see diametrically opposed reaction to the same label.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: the way this shit works is that nothing progresses science quite
as much
as the idle availability of specific precursors. which is both why alf has a point re the failure of us science and engineering being related to the criminalization of the garage teenager's bombmaking lab
as well
as to the general idea that "you get to have sex in college".
mircea_popescu: but this aside : HAVING the thing there will be very useful for some important areas of republican research. such
as the most evident one - malleable computation. (ie, when you somehow structure your code so that others can help but can't discern what they're helping. this may or may not involve a well chosen cipher system).
a111: Logged on 2016-10-19 14:14 trinque: when the great schism occurred, I wrote the first cut of deedbot
as quickly
as possible
as a single large blob of code.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: buncha mentally retarded but politically ambitious social-pseudosciences types trying to get ahead in the world
as best they know how. which somehow, in their broken culture, does not mean twerking, for some reason.
mircea_popescu: parliaments regulate. governments are not parliaments, nor are they legitimate,
as a matter of principle, which is separable and also separate from the absent legitimacy of parliaments.
mircea_popescu: anyway - speaking of "misrepresentation hard to not see
as wilful" - governments DO NOT regulate.
mircea_popescu: about
as stupid
as creating a mechanical drum for the usb stick
trinque: could have
as many
as you like, tell the video output thinger that offset x to x+n is the frame
trinque: if there's no video card, I assume there is just an area of ram currently being used
as such
mircea_popescu: aha. imagine that thing, with individually wired pixels, the cable coming out of its back
as thick
as the fucking viewport.
mircea_popescu: and if i want to do a slideshow i do a for loop, and the machine cycles through the bmps
as fast
as memory updates, which is to say i get 2GHz ie 2 bn fps.
trinque: but not
as though this isn't cool
mircea_popescu: by now "gpu" can move on to its proper niche
as... hash engine (ie, what in period lingo would be "math coprocessor") and the video can go back to being straight up dac
trinque: the provided example incurs "AND ALSO ALL OF MAC OS"
as postgresql incurs item on Linux
mircea_popescu: bout same
as current cunts. there's a reason all that's available to the general population on dating sites is well used 40+yos
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: lol. maybe they accept alternative "patriot dividends"
as asset
mircea_popescu: no, the point is, the dust in the rings of saturn doesn't enter spontaneous fusion because it all moves ~the same direction and ~the same speed. so sure, leave it there, it'll make a nice bing sound
as it hits the outer casing.
mircea_popescu: you could actually make bullets shoot 10x
as fast
as they do now. it's not worth doing.
