trinque: gabriel_laddel: y'know I used
to do
this "fuck everything but work"
thing,
trying
to get somewhere.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-12 15:52 asciilifeform: other folks - welcome
to grep own l0gz.
gabriel_laddel: I had a girlfriend. was staying at her place when parents were out of
town etc
mircea_popescu: "they sure wouldn't have built
this very versatile car, which
they
talk about a lot more
than where
they have used it and for what" << now
this is fo sho valid criticism of
the whole demographic.
gabriel_laddel: (among other
things in my life
that are
totally fucked)
mircea_popescu: well
then
that kinda work should eat
through your 300 overdraft in a short
time.
gabriel_laddel: were I fundraising for clim, yes, it would not be via 'crowdfunding' and yes,
the numbers would be in
the 10ks
gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform: also, I'm not
taking
thousands in donations. jackdaniel is being paid several k
to work on CLIM
☟︎ gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform:
that's going
to have
to wait 1-5 months
then, depending on my fiscal situation
mircea_popescu: you want
to change
the world, build on
top of immutable primitives, like in v. don't go around pretending "light" now means something else
than yesterday.
mircea_popescu: and
that
thing is unmitigatedly evil ; not
to mentionm
the fundamental source and
ther self-replicating living body, of our present predicaments.
mircea_popescu: that is
the policy. any opposition
to
this, such as "we're now calling niggers afroamerican" or such as "naggum redefined OPEN()
to work on his system" is EXACTLY
the same
thing,
mircea_popescu: generally speaking, i specifically do not wish for anyone
to be able
to redefine anything ever.
mircea_popescu: there's no "toilet bacteria" ;
there is genetic variation, but by geography not by function.
mircea_popescu: go do
this experiment for curiosity. plumbing grows ~the same stuff everywhere.
mircea_popescu: there is no "bacterium
that only" except in
the masturbatory alt-reality, necessarily inexistent, secreted by overexcited virgins who lived in a basement.
mircea_popescu: it's not
that i chose not
to redefine sink as
toilet. is
that my sink CAN NOT BE so redefined.
mircea_popescu: in
that you're crudely approximating something
that's fundamentally impossible - and
tell yourselfd
this is proof
the impossible may be possible! magic! socialism!
mircea_popescu: unlike you, mircea_popescu doesn't lie
to himself about what's going on.
mircea_popescu: if
THIS is you reason
to dislike
the x86, YOU go in
the skip.
mircea_popescu: you've just said "i build escherian
trestlework around it"
mircea_popescu: which is what,
to read it and re-redefine everything in it ?
mircea_popescu: you're eschewing
the question. "operator=me" has
two options : a) not run
the code ; b) run
the code, giving whoever wrote it operator status.
mircea_popescu: what is so hard about
this concept is
that it is not a concept of wisdom but a concept of idiocy. which is
to say, it does not belong in reality, but in
the masturbatory alt-reality, necessarily inexistent, secreted by overexcited virgins who lived in a basement.
mircea_popescu: for
the record, if a system had
this sort of "semantic indirection" built in where any fuckwad could "redefine OPEN()" i'd burn it and piss on
the ashes.
mircea_popescu: seems
to me it's rather about how amphibious buldozers are unnecessary because her majesty's engineering corps may one day get around
to building a road
that goes where I WANT.
mircea_popescu: "find a better way
to do what you want
than shooting justice holman"
mircea_popescu: his "open car design" is copied exactly off
the "no guns" europolicy.
mircea_popescu: yes. and
the reason no allowance for it is made in say v is also very particular.
trinque: mircea_popescu: I'd have
to start collecting
that information, but yes
phf: i wrote a loader for
them
though, and
they load, eating up another 100mb or so
phf: (mostly because
those logs will have
to have negative id's, i assume
there are bunch of places, where ids are handled with parse-integer)
phf: mircea_popescu: i haven't had
time
to integrate it, my spare cycles were going into bot rewrite
mircea_popescu: phf wait, how does
this work ? i recall i sent you a batch, or was
there a problem
there ?
phf: but otherwise it's
to
the early days of b-a
phf: mircea_popescu: i don't have
the 2012 ones yet
PeterL: or
too ashamed
to admit loss of key
a111: Logged on 2014-11-22 06:21 punkman: another fun exercise,
trying
to install Linux on 3TB disk
PeterL: ah,
that was before B-A/Trilema split
PeterL: maybe a command could be added
to deedbot
to return last
time verifyed?
mircea_popescu: apparently
this needs an actual command, $last_check name or somesuch. looks for
the last
time someone self-authed.
mircea_popescu: of course... he wouldn't do it in cahn in
the first place would he.
PeterL: would not be in chan, $up is
to deedbot
mircea_popescu: young fetching fellow living in sunny climate, fucking locals for showers. not
that rare.
