mircea_popescu: fortunately, i don'
t have alf's problem. baking sane food is something that one woman can learn.
mircea_popescu: anyway, the idea is more, every few blocks has this "fresh homemade pasta!" "pasta factory!" "el palacio de la pasta!" bullshits and they're so shockingly bad i can'
t begin to imagine wtf they're thinking.
mthreat: pasta place that supposedly has good pasta. i haven'
t tried it myself
mircea_popescu: three cases out of five, mother won'
t even leave him over it.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i can'
t even figure that out for myself. 90% of the time i think "mmm, chocolate. tasty i guess but i kinda want some more challah or whatever else i baked most recently covered in bread"
mircea_popescu: afaik da who doesn'
t get plea bargains > 95% is fired.
mircea_popescu: i don'
t, specifically, but you run into them with some regularity when spelunking in court "records".
mircea_popescu: repackaging of the ancient socialistoid idiocy, "oh, creative people just can'
t keep themselves from creating shit we can all eat" ; except it's "men can'
t sit put" now. whatevs.
a111: Logged on 2014-08-31 18:52 asciilifeform: so, formula is: 'don'
t own. if you own, don'
t admit it. if you admit it, don'
t write about it. if you own and admit and write, don'
t sign your name. if you own, admit, write, and sign name, don'
t be surprised.' (apologies to rev.
t. reese.)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i don'
t think the content of the rt link may have happened in angloverse.
mircea_popescu: (depending how capable one is re bitcoin network, you might be able to see they tried to relay it starting ~26 hours ago, but plenty of places didn'
t even hear about it until ~6 hours ago).
mircea_popescu: re bitpay earlier. and generally speaking, expecting the y-shitonator bitcoin "infrastructure" simply going away by the end of the year isn'
t exactly misplaced.
mircea_popescu: i recall they cut staff at some point. haven'
t pulled the plug yet evidently.
mircea_popescu: yes i'll get archival copy of stuff i like. amusingly, 99% of which doesn'
t exist in better resolution anyway. wtf am i going to do with an archival copy of cat on the hot tin roof, watch the original artefacts in preference of the modern ones ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeat they don'
t quite live to expectation huh.
phf: i've been trying to track down whole earths catalog hypercard for a while, but so far unsuccesfully. haven'
t tried hard enough though
phf: which also meant that some guys were forever unobtanium. like phatansmagoria, i saw it at a "legit" computer store once, but didn'
t get to play until i could lift it off tpb years later

t have souls), certain mark of apartenence. they are people too, because of that phone, you see ?
a111: Logged on 2017-02-14 15:34 mircea_popescu: for it to count it can'
t be denied, which comes down to, because michael flynn contains nothing, encryption doesn'
t help him in any way.
mircea_popescu: mkay. 1. animals don'
t matter. ducttaping around a chicken and fucking it for fun is not animal abuse ; 2. people are at the center. imagining the chicken is your companion IS animal abuse, in that you abuse the animal.
mircea_popescu: that phone is the palpable (it has to be! hipsters don;'
t have souls), certain mark of apartenence. they are people too, because of that phone, you see ?
☟︎ ben_vulpes: upstairs of the cafe where asciilifeform and i had coffees with chetty was hugely bathroom, and the space that wasn'
t bathroom unused
mircea_popescu: istanbul airport processes about 5-10k people/hour, every hour, every day. i haven'
t seen anything like that since before maga.
mircea_popescu: if a car doesn'
t go offrail there one of these days, argentina is outside normal physics.
mircea_popescu: ah, those. i went on the light rail here, it was a spicy adventure. i don'
t think they EVER maintain the tracks. solid 10 minutes of screeching.
ben_vulpes: i do low-intensity email and various other tasks that don'
t call for focus on the train
mircea_popescu: otherwise wtf... so you get hard and... oh shit i didn'
t plan this far ahead... uhmmm... i guess fuck this here keyhole.
ben_vulpes: don'
t ask me, i'm not sixty female and fat
mircea_popescu: learn this one amazing trick a portland dad discovered that apple doesn'
t want you to know.
ben_vulpes: and in yet other "you don'
t own this device" news, my v1 kindle does this amazing trick when i email it .mobi files where it briefly displays them and then immediately removes them
ben_vulpes: in other radiation damage, $client calls up, "hey latest chrome doesn'
t work with $app from inside the muni vpn" "...can you swing a vpn or shall i get on a plane?"
BingoBoingo: Still power rangers don'
t get to add faggy pinky stuff to node handshake.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> also note that if you built with malleus patch, you will be kickbanning prb peers as soon as they disgorge a prbism of any kind (e.g., 'bloom filter' command) << Bloom isn'
t what disconnects most PRB nowadays. It is "BIP 151 compact blocks".
hanbot: i assumed that entailed eventual unblackholing. granted i haven'
t had the patience to wait more than a day to see.
trinque: didn'
t the oregon militia people get off anyway?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform pick any large down ; go downtown. irs doesn'
t work.
trinque: if they did nothing after, piss on them; they aren'
t people
mircea_popescu: trinque yeah, i wouldn'
t particulartly mind seeing the answer to that riddle play out
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: sure, if you don'
t have taxable income
mircea_popescu: understand that the system isn'
t there to fuck bahamas the imbecile nigger ; nor buffett the uberrich whiteboy.
ben_vulpes: lest anyone get the wrong idea, i don'
t tend to pick fights with the irs.
ben_vulpes: plebe's can'
t max out an hsa in one month, get real
mircea_popescu: though they're trying to corrupt narrative with trump also. just, they're so deeply racist that they won'
t believe a "citizen" could possibly be anything but insane. sluggish schizophrenia ftw!
mircea_popescu: makes sense on their twisted level, anyone who doesn'
t see the glory of the libertard revelation is either insane (trump) or else corrupt (if orc).
ben_vulpes: "how do you do delivery?" "we just package a whole linux, anything less than that is annoyingly complicated and we can'
t hire people who know how to do it"
ben_vulpes: iono, aren'
t republicans in the habit of pasting lulzy pm logs?
mircea_popescu: women aren'
t sexually exploited. this is THE problem of the west. wtf is wrong with the coolies.
ben_vulpes: i don'
t have enough compenstors on the ground yet apparently if there's a baby stroller type to be had
ben_vulpes: if only join/parts weren'
t so frequently so spammy; it'd be nicely contextual for eg the previous conversation in logs
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: i profit little from things that other people say they plan to do. you also can'
t dress today for tomorrow's weather.
mircea_popescu: did your irc just write checks your mabha can'
t squash ?
ben_vulpes: wouldn'
t really know! just crackin wize
mircea_popescu: i don'
t think there's anything fundamentally wrong with the otp approach as opposed to the signature approach tbh.
trinque: danielpbarron: specifically in transit; I can'
t control what goes on in your castle, nor you in mine.
trinque: also, the OTP dance doesn'
t by itself confirm that A received B's invoice as it was intended.
danielpbarron: is the invoice meant to be held against someone in public in the case they don'
t pay? and that's why it is signed?
danielpbarron: what is the purpose of a signature? generally i mean. because as I understand it, if the goal isn'
t to make the text public, it is possible to achieve whatever you want through 2 decryptions in the place of 1 signature
trinque: I don'
t see that they need to. Rather, deedbot ought to output regular deeds of the transactions it has processed in a given period (week/month)
lobbes: mircea_popescu, regarding lobbesbot billing for auctions: I'm assuming it should be spitting out a signed bill. Problem being that lobbesbot currently sits on VPS, and I don'
t want my personal signing key to reside on that box. Would it be a bad idea to sign these bills with lobbesbot's key instead?
mircea_popescu: "i can'
t see how crypto relates to me" is exactly how phantoms say "i think i mgiht be a phantom masquerading as a person". they're usually right, too.
mircea_popescu: for it to count it can'
t be denied, which comes down to, because michael flynn contains nothing, encryption doesn'
t help him in any way.
☟︎ ben_vulpes: in other things i don'
t hate, this yamhill valley rose of pinots is not foul!
ben_vulpes: gabriel_laddel_p: don'
t set it in stone, things move very slowly in the republic.
mircea_popescu: (in fairness though, inflation didn'
t go over 10 before the monkey went into office)
gabriel_laddel_p: what I think: if someone has js turned on in their browser, it's because they want js. If turned off, they don'
t want it. I, at least, want an-accurate-as-possible archive of whatever shows up in the logs, including arbitrary files, videos etc.
ben_vulpes: "are open to anyone who want to create a bright future that's rich with opportunity and freedom for all" << what if my bright future doesn'
t include towelheads, but it's still bright for everyone else, am i still welcome?
ben_vulpes: "a line was crossed" nobody can use active voice anymore, saying your enemy's name doesn'
t give him power over you witchcraft isn'
t a thing
