mircea_popescu: this time they will be short toilet paper and toothpaste.
mircea_popescu: yes, trhey were short materiel.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform flak jackets != boots.
mircea_popescu: the coming iraq campaign will be the first one the us soldiers will not have enough boots and shit. maybe best enlist for something else.
mircea_popescu: anyway, if anyone has a direct interest in the welfare of the poor grunts involved, like loved ones or w/e :
mircea_popescu: perpahs.
mircea_popescu: every downed plane is downed for good.
mircea_popescu: to make it perfectly clear : any sunk cruiser reduces the total count of cruisers the us will ever have by 1.
mircea_popescu: it's not inventory unless you can replace it.
mircea_popescu: it's impractical, 2000s us could borrow the 50trn they used. 2015s us can not.
mircea_popescu: undata the funny part is, the us got so fucking raped in iraq it's hard to describe. now they want to go for round two ?
mircea_popescu: "Charge based on letter by Frein calling for revolution" << :D
mircea_popescu: prolly the gaw dude himself.
mircea_popescu: cazalla yeah, it's a fake name.
mircea_popescu: !s David Parker
mircea_popescu: lawl
mircea_popescu: anyway, nothing remarkable there. it's to be used like any other thing.
mircea_popescu: the romanian epxression is, "perfidul albion"
mircea_popescu: !up hank_
mircea_popescu: nubbins` im pretty sure that's what it is.
mircea_popescu: yup
mircea_popescu: maybe darcs should strip the trailing \n then ?
mircea_popescu: lmao
mircea_popescu: why ?
mircea_popescu: prototype works, more stuff to be added.
mircea_popescu: not unless the actual women open up.
mircea_popescu: i bet you you can't pikc out butt virgins in a line-up.
mircea_popescu: that's a myth.
mircea_popescu: coding is like buttsex, can be enjoyable if well paced.
mircea_popescu: odd
mircea_popescu: ;;google wasn't me
mircea_popescu: oic lol
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo you mean derpes c++ ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform wait, what ?!
mircea_popescu: as in, "kissing Arielle Duhaime-Ross will give you herpes, but reading her inanity in the verge will give you derpes"
mircea_popescu: there could be a new disease, the derpes...
mircea_popescu: lol if this cult thing catches on we can even have derpfessions. "have you derped my son ?"
mircea_popescu: anyway, i'd say this is progressing nicely.
mircea_popescu: well if mailx doesn'tdo attachments then why do you suggest people use it to mail you attachments lol.
mircea_popescu: jurov this handles the attachment scheme you wish to use ?
mircea_popescu: i know this from the mpex faq days.
mircea_popescu: jurov sample code for mailx in the help file would help a great deal.
mircea_popescu: as to the meaning ?
mircea_popescu: seems to me this'd resolve all outstanding problems.
mircea_popescu: and similarly, signatures get a "sig notes" following them, like signed by 01ABFFC7(n) 02ABFFC7(n) etc
mircea_popescu: jurov seems the site needs the extension of a "patch notes" clickable field ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform myeah.
mircea_popescu: what should "one" mean in this fortran ?
mircea_popescu: i dunno ;/
mircea_popescu: shit the hard questions you ask.
mircea_popescu: 1 change per patch.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform do me the courtesy and resubmit as mono patches and then the new ones can win the longer sigchain race with the original one ?
mircea_popescu: or for any other system where stuff can be changed / "contributed" by "nobody". but anyway, we digress.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i mean specifically about patches to foss.
mircea_popescu: jurov im not even sure it should be there.
mircea_popescu: so in that sense, great progress.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you do appreciate the following point : up until and in any case unless one actually had to put his own signature, these matters never have been seriously considered by asnyone.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i know.
mircea_popescu: should this be verboten, and all or nothing commitment upon signer ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, even if they are all mononuclear, there's still semantic value to be had. suppose i wish to say "have read and understood this to do what it says ; have not tested it in fact".
mircea_popescu: oops. jurov asciilifeform's.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform his.
mircea_popescu: so what happened to the suggestion ?
mircea_popescu: so for this reason, all patches must be mononuclear ?
mircea_popescu: right.
mircea_popescu: and what of the 500 orher dead people that signed his ?
mircea_popescu: well no, because then all the history is lost.
mircea_popescu: jurov yes.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but what if you communicating with me is impractical ? because say, you're dead.
mircea_popescu: so basically, the correct approach here would have been for ascii to make a patch for each individual diff ?
mircea_popescu: jurov but suppose i wish to say "reviewed X part ; Y part outside of my comprehension". can not be done ?
mircea_popescu: "Recommended process is to pipe the signed message text directly to mailx or similar client without ambitions." ahahaha gotta love jurov.
mircea_popescu: jurov specifically, is there any way for me to submit signature comments ?
mircea_popescu: yeah did it just die ?
mircea_popescu: ty
mircea_popescu: jurov incidentally, gimme the short version, how do i submit to this thing ?
mircea_popescu: maybe he knew what he was doing ?
mircea_popescu: lmao
mircea_popescu: well yeah, obviously. right jurov ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that anything needs a 1st signature to even be sumitted is not abad design decision
mircea_popescu: o hey nice!
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2013/the-danger-of-homebrew-crypto/ that ?
mircea_popescu: clearly terrorist internet funbux then.
mircea_popescu: other than gossip
mircea_popescu: they've not actually made that claim, have they ?
mircea_popescu: nuts
mircea_popescu: lol that bad is it ?
mircea_popescu: http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/unix-koans/unix-nature.html << not bad, incidentally.
mircea_popescu: moreso than for their parents, trying to do the same out of marx, ziggler, carnegey and whatever other fitness trainers and pop-philosophers the almanacs would print.
mircea_popescu: i have a lot of sympathy for kids trying to piece together some shard of understanding out of isaiah berlin, rory mcilroy and ronald mcdonald.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform here's one for ya : a google for McIlroy produces a solid pages of derpage about some random kid playing golf.
mircea_popescu: you know, back when the euro "didn't have a chance", and like the canadian dollar, traded under the usd.
mircea_popescu recalls the eu space agency early on, such a risible attempt.
mircea_popescu: anyway, to be noted that the european space agency did it. the us relevancy, like the mass of the comet, withering away by the minute.
mircea_popescu: * at that moment, undata was enlightened * lol
mircea_popescu: except i don't. :)
