mircea_popescu: asciilifeform bans are currently free, i don't maintain the list.

mircea_popescu: not that i'm even for a second proposing this is impossible. #eulora famously had one moron who "played" the game for months, merely creating accounts, never actually went in.

mircea_popescu: this situation where "i idle in 560895409860 channels and have last read anything 176 weeks ago" gotta fucking cease.

mircea_popescu: so i kinda tend to sit at term when ima read logs. maybe this is just my own workflow bias speaking.

mircea_popescu: i personally fucking loathe it, because often i want to answer, and then if i can't i have to savew it, which works poorly.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform did it ever do what he describes ? i dun think i ever saw it.

mircea_popescu: noob support needs to be as simple and requiring of as little initiative as possible. and once that's made like that, why am i forcing you to keep an entirely separate model for #trilema ? when the same thing would actually work better in point of fact ?

mircea_popescu: i guess "this cat not worth the skinning", in general, maybe. sure, not like the current model is that broken. but if you're going to support things like #pizarro, deedbot pming new names is way the fuck better than pizarro website or sales funnel including a "and then send !!up to deebot" etc.

mircea_popescu: erry time i come in i send !!up to deedbot, i sent thousands to date, why ? it knows what i'm gonna say to it the momen ti show up, doesn't it ? who does anything @ deedbot BUT "!!up" when they come in ?

mircea_popescu: what's exactly the benefit of having whichever-unvoiced-name idling ? that what, "they can confirm the logs" ? wut the fuck is ever going to ask the voiceless anything, i need anonvouching like i need featherhairs.

mircea_popescu: trinque tbh i was thinking of revising the voice model altogether, in favour of a voice-or-kick model. ☟︎☟︎

mircea_popescu: aaand i shall bbl!

mircea_popescu: i never perceived him as anything other than or besides https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FM-2030 character. ☟︎

mircea_popescu: except "what i want" is "unleash the creativity in every droplet of mankind" sorta bunk.

mircea_popescu: that he croaked is lofty irony, in that sense, but i can't imagine what coming out it'd have taken. how was he in ?

mircea_popescu: trinque i dunno, he was into that whole "live forever in a turtleneck and short hair" pantsuit churchlet.

mircea_popescu: consequently all sorts of things are the same to me, or not worth the distinguishing, that i believe aren't to the more involved observer.

mircea_popescu: i happily ignored "tech" in that decade, or most of it anyway.

mircea_popescu: i r suspect alf is the more disappointed among us. not that i hold that against him.

mircea_popescu: i don't see the contagion angle. sexual fetishes are a matter of fashion, to some degree, but not properly speaking epidemic.

mircea_popescu: i suppose "express", as in "genotype expresses in fenotype". though honestly, the more direct sexual reference is deeply adequate. this is a sexual matter, not genetic nor immunological nor etc.

mircea_popescu: in another decade or two, it'll be strictly impossible for the various pantsuit churchlets to do ~anything. they're rapidly losing all technical ability, and so... i mean i already can take my pick of bdsm-ish chicks in "north america -- the best country in the world". in another coupla decades, boy howdy.

mircea_popescu: anyway, i suspect it'll be a whole openssl/libressl bla bla fizzle and pop there too.

mircea_popescu: nfi where i picked up the idea, but not borne by facts.

mircea_popescu: aha! turns out i misspoke.

mircea_popescu: now i gotta read the memcpy reference, isn't it basically a wrapper on malloc ?

mircea_popescu: ave1 Aggregates << for the record, i think this whole thing is stupid, in the camel-nose-under-tent sense. array-aggregate-operation should not draw in the gc apparatus (in its memcpy portions, whatever).

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-17#1850725 << don't worry, i'm STILL working on it. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: anyway -- fuck 'em, i deeply fucking care some nobody-on-a-stick meanwhile joined the churchgoing group. whatever. but in matters of actual interest : you "were working" on an ada networking socking thing ; ave "was working" on ~same. had diana_coman not said "here's what ~~~I AM ABOUT TO DO~~~", we would have never known. if the wastefulness of this approach isn't directly obvious...

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah, it's just... i'm fucking scandalised. junior high "taking over the world" what the fuck is wrong with all these idiots. what, "let's all manalone while the children reconstruct the world in their image", what the fuck already.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform boys that "magically"/"inexplicably"/etc "do not seem to be able to find" #trilema generally (and "who could have predicted!!!"-predictably) come out with some kind of "since the world is entirely composed of the stupid cunts crowding over at the stupid cunt hut, it then follows i must wear pantyhose and lipstic now"

mircea_popescu: say "i will x" rather than "for the past n weeks i had been x" whenever at all feasible. for one thing, it'll get you more people, cuz ima redirect those trying to same x. for another thing, it'll give you something to look at, of your own. "here's what i said i was gonna do." yay or nay, it's absolutely better to have than to not have.

mircea_popescu: i don't mean "it is against group interest". i mean it from a very personal perspective, not using this is like not using fridges, or CAT scanners. YOU miss out. your own life is shittier than it need had been, on your deathbed you'll look at less of a life than it might've been. there's just no point to run the race eyes closed, none whatever.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-17#1850719 << she has a point you know ; i don't just mean ave1 though it's a fine example here. you folks have an excellent semaphore system, which works well and has been historically proven to work well (not to mention have all the interest in "feelings" of a guillotine). it is very stupid NOT to use it, to eschew use it, to miss out on using it. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: diana_coman i am not reading on. i'm done with torvalds.

mircea_popescu: !!rate torvalds -10 "The above is basically a long-winded way to get to the somewhat painful personal admission that hey, I need to change some of my behavior"
