phf: asciilifeform: or possibly gabriel_laddel doesn't know what he's
talking about
phf: last
time i checked
there wasn't cairo/freetype/etc. in mcclim
to begin with
gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform: you're going
to be waiting a while in any case, so I wouldn't get
to worked up about it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the difference between your spec and my spec should be obvious. is it ?
phf: asciilifeform: i don't know why gabriel_laddel is saying what he's saying.
truetype has already been rewritten in lisp, and
that's what mcclim uses for fancy
truetype rendering. it's expensive as hell, and equally pointless.
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel huh. listen, probably not actionable right now, but in general and on
the long
term if you write me a crystal space replacement in lisp ima definitely bundle it in eulora.
gabriel_laddel: all of
the business
that I do inbetween now and
then is simply churn
to get
there
phf: gabriel_laddel: have you
tried actually getting some quality
type 1 fonts and setting
them up ~with your x server~ and seeing if you like
the result
phf: oh for fucks say, client side font rendering. welcome
to 2002, can i fuck up your stack
gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform: I am already paid
to make money with it
gabriel_laddel: on my dead harddrive
there is a bunch of half-implemented useful
things like clim-spec-in-clim,
the "navigator" which is a reflective search apropos, I've
taken climacs and made it usable for day-to-day work...
gabriel_laddel: The fonts look like shit without
truetype and
that makes it impossible for me
to make money using CLIM.
gabriel_laddel: talking directly
to
the monitor / whatever and implementing CLIM on
that.
gabriel_laddel: No. Cutting X/cario/opengl/truetype out of
the picture completely.
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel but what's
the goal or how are you proceeding or anything like
that ?
gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform: redid
the website, removed all
the crap backends, gas2serra fixed a
threading bug
that caused irritating visual artifacts, I went
through
the whole of
the CLIM archives and pulled out all
the useful info,
the codebase has been
totally re-ordered,
truetype is now
the default, bugfixes relating
to not pulling in
the correct X keyboard
mircea_popescu: im curious
too,
turns out. started what gabriel_laddel ?
gabriel_laddel: there have been discussions of re-implementing it on
top of
the web, ncurses etc
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu:
that's one perspective. another is
that I'm extrodinarily lucky
that
they're doing anything useful on mcclim at all
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel hey,
they're people, with a brain right ? can benefit from discussion of
this as any other
topic.
gabriel_laddel: were I in charge of fundraising, I'd not be doing it as an anon anyways but rather calling syscog, ravenspack etc and
trying
to get donations in
the 10ks rather
than pocket change, but w/e
BingoBoingo will need
to dust off copy of "spam like a pro in 24 hours"
mircea_popescu: importing bitcoin into your financial affairs works its magic just by being a node ; doesn't have
to be
the whole process. actually, can't even be whole process,
that's gavintardism. but yeah, no big deal.
gabriel_laddel: I'm not in charge of fundraising,
talk
to beach re
this.
mircea_popescu: whose job is it of
the usg's what jackdaniel gets paid and from whence it came ?
mircea_popescu: that may be, but
this is scarcely a reason
to breach your privacy and etc.
mircea_popescu: yeah but i mean... why handle donations in shitcoin in
the first place.
gabriel_laddel: he is currently paying jackdaniel several
thousand out of pocket
to help
gabriel_laddel: ben_vulpes: if so, have him drop into #clim and
talk
to beach, who is handling fundraising / distributing funds atm
gabriel_laddel: ben_vulpes: do you have an intern who wants
to make a couple hundred bucks here and
there writing CL for McCLIM?
mircea_popescu: whether os or not os needn't be resolved ; but gabriel_laddel should be able
to acquire a copy i say!
gabriel_laddel: phf:
there is no search right now and it makes
the whole development cycle hellish
gabriel_laddel: phf: is your logging engine open source / can it be so
that we can have less shit logs on #clim?
BingoBoingo: The ones from
the story or is
there another paste?
mircea_popescu: and plox notify
the parties named in
that paste BingoBoingo .
twitter, email, w/e.
BingoBoingo: Maybe
they can get NEW cardboard
to further advance
their claims!
BingoBoingo: Well, in
that case,
those Argentine cowsies you are so fond of have it all
mircea_popescu: (it is not
technically possible for a man's claims
to exceed his wealth, because wealth includes
the value of all claims by definition)
BingoBoingo: What of
the man worth 1 pence who sues for a whole pound?
mircea_popescu: (note
the sheeps at end is intentional, because ships)
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo mind if i write a qntra detailing justice holman's breach of
the european declaration of human rights and other matters ?
mircea_popescu will find
this joint one day, give a girl a five and ask for change.
mircea_popescu: the indignity. illiterate peronista judges. is
there enough alcohol in
the "civilised world" ?
mircea_popescu: i'd fucking call a hit. what
the fucking shit is
this. omfg.
mircea_popescu: judge can't spell, and has
the unmitigated audacity
to say
THAT ?
mircea_popescu: "I have
to say
that I do not find it very ediffying
that people in
this financial bracket should be
taking up a day of court
time over a sum which
to
them,
though not
to others, is objectively so small. However, agreement has not been reached and I must rule." << HOLY SHIT
phf: hehe,
to answer asciilifeform's question from long
time ago, you want wife like kim, so when you go
to da club all
the hoes look like your hubby
mircea_popescu: i know of no us-born individual of similar accomplishment as
that armenian.
mircea_popescu: phf and
this because kim
totally fucking won
the assculture war.
☟︎ phf: i
think blonds are out at
the moment, everyone wants a quirky hipster brunete, miami only makes it worse with all
the latinos. i know a few blonds
that actually color
their hair. it's
trully barbaric age up here.
mircea_popescu: the
tits are superb, btw, best silicone i've seen in a while.
phf: well,
terry richardson popularized
the style of photography. sort of
trashy "amateur" photography with good lighting, vomit and
tits. it all looks a lot more polished when you're shit faced
mircea_popescu: (also, props
to all
the genius "DRM" nonsense
they installed. fucking clearly it works huh.)
mircea_popescu: typical argentine has all
the pretense of small
time german krownprinz and all
the sabiduria of rural south cali gangster.
phf: also miami is where da clubs at, it's like a
trashier, "let's go
to
the beach" version of new york club scene. let's have merlin bronques say a few words about it
http://www.lastnightsparty.com/miami/ mircea_popescu: (fwiw, historical romanian guard
types did fire large gauge shotgun loaded with salt at kids/thieves/etc)
phf: ahaha, i know people with such ridiculous k
tolerance, i'd like
to see cops shoot at
them
mircea_popescu: "now she can go off
the pill, and i have an elite highschore!" "sweet!"
mircea_popescu: "dude i finally passed
that hard level in bubble casino" "How ?" "manned up and got
that castration procedure wife kept wanting finally"
