mircea_popescu: there is also that.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i can scarcely picture republic sitting on ancient closed bins tho.
mircea_popescu: not to mention it;s altogether unclear the republic will even enforce fiat-"proprietary"
asciilifeform: well you dun need the ide to deploy...
phf: sort of tempting to migrate all my lisp work there, because the ide is nice, but of course, proprietary
asciilifeform: when i was on a usg throne and had ~unlimited budget, i ordered ALL of the known commercial lisps (with exception of 'scineer') brought in.
phf: it's sort of a universe in itself, i started looking at it again, because i'm doing some graphics work with lisp and needed a good gui toolkit. i'm using CAPI right now, which is proprietary and part of lispworks
phf: mircea_popescu: it's a ui for lisp that gabriel_laddel has been contributing to
mircea_popescu: lol what is that phf ?
asciilifeform: gotta get out of this swamp.
asciilifeform: asciilifeform, meanwhile, sees 'extra cursor on this display' 'wait..' 'mosquito.'
trinque: all my v stuff is going to live at http://trinque.org/src
phf: maybe one day(c)(tm) i'll be able to work on that thing again..
phf: not particularly interesting, since they are two independent codebases, but http://btcbase.org/patches?patchset=bot
phf: trinque: what happened to the bot vpatches?
mircea_popescu: (dunno who for instance recalls 2012 back when "logging irc" was "a bad idea" by "community agreement". freenode would still hold on to that idiocy hadn't it died meanwhile.) ☟︎
mircea_popescu: most of the things we've built came out of examining steps and making improvements.
mircea_popescu: the great advantage being that the steps of the iteration === research.
trinque: I'm not opposed to incremental improvements as long as they, y'know, continue.
mircea_popescu: maybe you know how to get my site via drone-usb.
mircea_popescu: and while it would allow tcp/ip, it wouldn't be limited to tcp/ip
mircea_popescu: phf the idea of course being that eventually this will grow into actual routing,
ben_vulpes: but in light of lease-breaking fees and firing of everyone and general existential crises am going to go dip my butt in the river with child and babe.
mircea_popescu: this is, incindentally, much better than "cloudflare".
ben_vulpes: ;;later tell gabriel_laddel folx appreciated the lolz
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: hosts file can't possibly be more intimate than a gpg keyring
ben_vulpes: perhaps just give them an ip addr?
ben_vulpes: this presents the thorny problem of noobs not having the foggiest where ben_vulpes/r/<a_vastly_shorter_id> is actually located on the net
ben_vulpes: i have no interest in perpetuating the global hash table as controlled by nato
ben_vulpes: i quite rather would like to take my extant domains donw
ben_vulpes: well i was sitting in the sun but i have to drive-by-comment now
mircea_popescu: $g "because of my father i thought my name is jesus christ"
mircea_popescu: so that's the use.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform put it this way : whether i call her "big tits" or whatever else, she can still be "susan b. anthony" in public.
mircea_popescu: you can have a canonical copy unrelatedly to whether you scribble on your copy or not.
asciilifeform: well in the sense that i'm not sure what one wins from vtronic incarnation of it
mircea_popescu: that doesn't speak to this.
asciilifeform: trinque: not much use imho, a hostfile is the most intensely personal item possible, it is mapping of key fp's to friends' names.
trinque: actually I think mircea_popescu first mentioned getting a vtronic hosts file going
asciilifeform: (or, i shit thee not, in japanese cosmogony, big spoodge)
trinque: phf │ well, with custom hosts you can just type http://phf in your browser. that'll be kind of cool << ben_vulpes and I were talking about this earlier
mircea_popescu: it'll be just good and ready to go, just replace big-bang at the outset with whatever other causative event happens in your alt-universe, all good.
asciilifeform: (incidentally plugboards survived in analogue computers, which were manufactured ALMOST UNTIL '80s because ~actually easier to dataflow program on~)
mircea_popescu: you know, just in case you want to use the browser in an alternate universe.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you missed the plug-cable-from-socket-n-to-socket-m-in-plugboard part.
mircea_popescu: so you use browser ftp that can't upload. so then what does it do, this : http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/ilasxve-560x456.png ?
asciilifeform: but hey, i even got shit here that talks ~tftp~
asciilifeform: granted you can't upload to ftp in browser (that i know of)
asciilifeform: it is easy protocol to implement, wat.
asciilifeform: i have own-written widgets that speak ftp over loopback strictly
mircea_popescu: one of the most egregious cases of derpy engineering choices. "http://" really bitch, because what, your browser is also going to do what, bitcoin:// ? and then www, because totallies, there's other stuff on the web than web.
asciilifeform: you type h-TAB or whatever button that is on your martian box.
asciilifeform: who the hell does
mircea_popescu: phf i dunno why the fuck i'd type "http".
phf: well, with custom hosts you can just type http://phf in your browser. that'll be kind of cool
phf: i'm waiting for when we finally start sending hosts file to each other
asciilifeform: yeah he quit payin' for domain. even the link on 'temple' is to archive.org.
mircea_popescu: but the page i mean.
asciilifeform: not terry davis !
mircea_popescu: https://archive.is/AcyWa << for the records.
asciilifeform: http://www.cliki.net/Humor << now i recall, my thing is at the bottom (curator actually wrote and asked to feature it)
phf: i like how ascii handles them "i invented what you're talking about, and you're wrong" "eat shit you turncoat"
mircea_popescu: possibly what he got picked up as too, "check out this guy, earthworm beset by ants" or somesuch.
mircea_popescu: phf the sort of comments he gets on his blog never cease to amaze me.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform good point re the "hack" thing. apparently the reason average cattle doesn't is because ... they CHOOSE not to. not because they cucking fouldn't to save their stinky hides
phf: nah, i'm curious about the scheme83 website
phf: asciilifeform: i don't actually know about that one :o
mircea_popescu: see, i knew good things will happen if i stick around with him.
phf: asciilifeform: nah, your still considered to be one of the authorities on lisp from ground up in teh kommuniti
asciilifeform: i think i was already in lisporg somewhere
phf: (defvar lords '("mircea_popescu" "asciilifeform" "ben_vulpes")), heh you guys made the planet.lisp.org
asciilifeform: as if proggy broke when you whack it with Big Hammer enough times.

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-11#1518584 << the american derpmedia Official Truth is, best as i can discern, that a hack is not, as in actuality, a technological finesse, but a kind of window-smash vandalism ☝︎
phf: gabriel_laddel wrote a mcclim tutorial https://common-lisp.net/project/mcclim/posts/CLIM-the-galaxys-most-advanced-graphics-toolkit.html
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-11#1518588 << german, iirc, produced it, but never ate, just wrote down 'this is a thing' and moved on to next substituted benzene ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2014-08-08 08:23 mircea_popescu: "oh, no, he came out for olives six or seven times"
a111: Logged on 2016-08-11 20:36 asciilifeform: it would be quite fitting if the cartel caught a dea guy, tied him to a pole, and forced to drink whole barrel of whisky
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-11#1518539 << 2aminopropane is water miscible ; amphetamine is very slightly soluble. moreover is competitively-soluble with all the sugar crap, so i'd be rather surprised if you can get 5g to stay unprecipitated in a bottle of off the shelf soda/juice/whatever. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2016-08-11 18:55 asciilifeform: '"[Trump] is an enabler of Putin, former head of the KGB, and of course is leading all these hacks," Reid said. "It should be a message to America that you can't hold hands with Putin."'

mircea_popescu: why, was the reading properly signed ?
mircea_popescu: we just report the news, we don't make the news.
mats: is mp admitting he reads the reddit?
gribble: gabriel_laddel was last seen in #trilema 5 weeks, 1 day, 17 hours, 4 minutes, and 16 seconds ago: <gabriel_laddel> wtf else are you going to do?
gribble: punkman was last seen in #trilema 12 weeks, 6 days, 16 hours, 18 minutes, and 53 seconds ago: <punkman> it does but you need various packages to compile it
asciilifeform: it would be quite fitting if the cartel caught a dea guy, tied him to a pole, and forced to drink whole barrel of whisky ☟︎
PeterL: right? I guess he didn't realize that it was poisonous in large quantities
asciilifeform: (to sip on the way to work??)
asciilifeform: who the hell would even want to smuggle <5g in a bottle, and why.
asciilifeform: seems likely that >5g would fit in there, one way or another.
PeterL: actually, I wouldn't be suprised if meth would dissolve better in apple juice than plain water, so maybe he was telling the truth?
asciilifeform: fella who would rather croak than go to american jail? will claim.
PeterL: who is going to claim a powder is apple juice? but yes, would not nescesarily all be dissolved
asciilifeform: so long as it is in the bottle, and got out
PeterL: but it should be more soluble in acidic solution, so depending on how it was prepared it might be more concentrated than that
