shinohai: f2pool announced earlier
they will not mine on HF so it promises
to be lulzy
mircea_popescu: from bmi 30 onwards, each lb of fat carries
the same excise as 1

third metro-east facility was also cited in June for a nonlethal paperwork violation. Midwest Rehabilitation and Respiratory Center, a 180-bed intermediate and skilled care facility at 727 N. 17th St. in Belleville, was cited with a class A violation and fined $25,000 for failure

mircea_popescu now wonders if idea is result of asciilifeform article sitting latent in memory, "forgotten" ; or if genuine case of "the obvious is obvious
to all lookers".

think of "glove" in
the sense of, a cubic foot heavy box you stick hand into, move around
mircea_popescu: does "we
take
them out back and shoot
them if
there's any sort of an emergency" count as a plan ?

transmission)

☟︎ ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: where does
the malbec claim
to be from?
a111: Logged on 2016-07-17 00:57 mircea_popescu: actually a proper, accelerometer based, precision instrument (glove ?) as described here seems a required item,
thinking about it.

☟︎ ben_vulpes: it is very well integrated with
the major cad packages.
a111: Logged on 2016-07-15 17:31 asciilifeform: admittedly i want
this for cad, rather
than sierra gamez.
shinohai: nice. was going
to do
the bbq
thing myself
this weekend but got canceled
mod6: must have forgotten
to do
that last month
mod6: i added a link
to
the
tickets dir on
the foundation website.
mircea_popescu: phf> "Intel is pushing a neat
technique
that could block malware infections on computers at
the processor level." kek << because
that's
TOTALLY where
they should be blocked. check it out, intel found
the solution
to badly written "dao" : HARD FORK!!1
mircea_popescu: mats>
this presumption of air dominance is not clever << and even if it held,
the drone bs is just lazy
thinking.

mats: i need
to verify my mental model
mats: i read
that with a
thick slavic accent
mats: drones have eaten LRS missions and has been
threatening CAS for longer
mats: outsourcing
to drones
BingoBoingo: Of course
then will be placed in something more durable
than
thinset
BingoBoingo: The
trendy option here is electric heating element set under flooring in
thinset mortar
mircea_popescu: and yes,
that's
the correct solution if for entirely incomprehensible reason you absolutely must have electric space heater : submerge resistors in
thermically heavy oil, ie, re-do
the circulating water radiator under
the new design constraints.
shinohai: I am glad
to own an actual "estufa" made of cast iron, which cheerfully warms
the house with a log or
three.
mircea_popescu: anyway.
the item is made locally principally because i suspect it'd be illegal
to ship internationally.
mircea_popescu: well nobody forces you
to use
the wrong plastic for your application, you know.
shinohai: Ihave seen a few space heaters here with
thermoplastic cases, but
they seem reasonably robust.
mircea_popescu: not like you couldn't have proper
thermoplastics if you wanted
to.
the old item foot for instance is quite resistent
to heat.
shinohai: Is
that a genuine case made of *plastic* on
that
thing mircea_popescu ?
oama: better
than
thaiglish
though
oama: I wouldn't laugh! my english isn't
the best out
there so...
mircea_popescu: you should hear pinoy chix engage in
their version of english.
oama: they speak
thaiglish. which is like a
totally different language
oama: lol, n-am mai citit
trilema de-un car de ani așa că nu știu ce și cum
mircea_popescu: and as phf can no doubt
tell you, only orcs vocalize /ʎ/ as /ʃ/. and
the worst kind,
too.
mircea_popescu: (similarly argentines don't read ll/y properly, but as sh instead. hence /saˈkate la moˈʧiʃa/ instead of
the god given /saˈkate la moˈʧiʎa/.)
shinohai: ;;later
tell felipelalli I will write something up, but will require a donation of 0.05 BTC
to my "get off my ass on a weekend" fund.
mircea_popescu: and in other wtf, anglos write naTion and noTion but nevertheless say naSHion and noSHion. because NOT ONLY do
they have
the romanian
t, and s, which
they don't bother
to write down, but
they also do
the
t, -> s, conversion like a buncha southern idiot plainsdwellers. romanian also spells nation and notion, but reads it like orcs one removed, natzion, notzion. fucking welchers do it like orcs
twice removed, sh directly.
mircea_popescu: ;;later
tell felipelalli so a) write it and b) stop leaving,
this is intended for permanent residence not hit-and-run actions.
☟︎ adlai: ask not what your qntra can read
to you; ask what you can write for your qntra
felipelalli: I'd love
to see something about
this on Qntra.net, WOT:nonperson hahah :D
mircea_popescu: people were laughing on
the street. i still recall
the day.
mircea_popescu: heh.
this was an epic newspaper. perhaps
the only actually good newspaper i ever personally witnessed. live, functional,
the genuine article.
phf: i feel like
that's more of a su
thing, 90s in russia were handheld camera
times, so it was more likely someone will start own
tv station or
try and get a spot on a fringe one like 2x2
phf: in a sense
that it's a catch phrase from media
that everyone is familiar with, yes, but i'm blanking on print media, i was not sufficiently someone back
then
mircea_popescu: (romanian version of canard enchaine, immensely popular in
the 90s, so much so
that everyone who was anyone read each and every edition, had a permanent column by
that name, approx "these words which do hurt us" in broken romanian.)
phf: perhaps from
their a6 agenda
mircea_popescu: Cepaliga@CkickNet.ro <<
that, for instance, is misspelled (clicknet.ro). leaving aside
the FUCKING CAPITALIZATION - someone
typed
that shit by hand. off, no doubt, paper.
mircea_popescu: anyway. romania will probably swing. ~nobody
that i heard from likes
the westerners anymoar.
