gabriel_laddel: Even unpacking and
then repackaging it causes
this - so must be
that I have
two versions of cpio installed or some nonsense..
gabriel_laddel: I can unpack
the
thing, inspect & modify
the
tree, but when repacking it and writing it
to
the USB == kernel panic
gabriel_laddel: I looked into it previously, and it seemed
that simply modifying
the working initramfs I have now would be much faster - but no such luck yet.
gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform:
terrible atm - cannot generate a initial ram filesystem
that works correctly :/
yangwao: and I might found another in JOSE, in X25519.. but looks its still in rfc draft
thing
mircea_popescu: she was hot in
the late 40s / 50s, and competent
thereafter.
phf: oh she played in death in venice, and weirdly enough in Dune (as
the reverend mother)
mircea_popescu: women only, day farm labourers, doing ~nothing in
the muds of rice paddies.
mircea_popescu: basically, every culture has a "women on sale" marketplace.
the egyptians stick
them in shops, if you got money
to buy goods maybe you got money for an extra cowsy ?
the italians of
the pre-roosevelt era stuck
them in
this bizarre field job.
trinque: I'm going
to have
to watch
this
trinque: yes, but at least he'll have a new hoverboard with fans
that never spin down

this laptop
to 10.11 and now
the second mini hdmi port doesn't work
shinohai: "A William P.
Tatem Elementary School
teacher called police on June 16 after a
third-grader said a fellow student made a racist comment about brownies" Good
to know we are safe.
mircea_popescu: "argentina has a night life", "romantic comedies", whatever
the fuck, all of it belongs on imgur.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i specifically disclaim any relation
to
the crap. either part of it.
ben_vulpes: most expensive x11
terminal i ever seen.
phf: ben_vulpes: you knew what you were doing and you suffered
the consequences
a111: Logged on 2016-06-30 16:12 mircea_popescu: "did you as much as re-read
this shit ?" "ain't nobody got
time for
that ??"

☟︎ ben_vulpes: "i heard
that if people bop you on your head, gold coins come out of your butt" ok i died
mircea_popescu: $google "these bitches are disrespectin' an'
that ain't right!"
phf: ninja warrior with
tits sort of
thing
ben_vulpes: miserable puns are made better with excessive setup. 'better' in
the sense
that your audience suffers more.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu:
that was a /lot/ of setup.
mircea_popescu: you know, i'm mildly surprised webcam companies haven't built
the arcade scroller irl yet. you could have
this special obstacle course built, have
the camhos
try and complete it, people could pay
to watch, bet on whether
they manage or not...
mod6: just putting
that out
there
mircea_popescu: anyway. summer of forks proceeding without much gas, one confused byzantine general moving chaotically around
the field.
mircea_popescu: "it's not clear how bitcoin will react ?" fuck you. a)
there's nothing
to react
to ; b) it's fucking clear how people react
to nothing.
mircea_popescu: everything is
twisted around. "ecosystem" ? ie, what, five derps with 200 socks each ?
that's
the ecosystem ?
mircea_popescu: ie, "miner cartel got beaten
to shit, withdrew
temporarily, wants
to have control over bitcoin! IT WAS PROMISED!!!!".
mircea_popescu: check
that out, it's golden : "It is not clear how developers will now react.
To not give
the ecosystem choice opens Bitcoin Core developers
to criticism of centralized power where developers decide even political matters of increased capacity, increasing
the risk of legal liability and
threatening an open war with miners which, having
the full support of almost all prominent bitcoin businesses, are likely
to come out much st
mircea_popescu: this, needless
to say, i hope, ISN'T HOW YOU FUCKING WRITE. code or anything else.
mircea_popescu: and in
the rare cases when
they re-read,
they re-read like
they re-stroke
the penis.
to recognize, not
to understand.
mircea_popescu: "did you as much as re-read
this shit ?" "ain't nobody got
time for
that ??"
☟︎ mircea_popescu: they write like
their disciples code, which is
to say, breathless, first pass, never read.
mircea_popescu: but
they didn't
then bother
to go back, and check
the
terms, and check
the relations, and cross-examine
their production.
mircea_popescu: it's like a cow mewing or like a kitten braying, you can readily see going
through
their productions
that
they... felt, something,
there.

trinque:
there are so many false political assumptions embedded in
them it's hard
to pick a starting place
a111: Logged on 2016-06-30 16:00 asciilifeform: rms is
tragicomic precisely ~because~ he won't let go of fundamentally usgistic
thinking
mircea_popescu: (when pursuing evidence,
there's
two kinds : indicative and dispositive.
the latter is
the sort
that ends
the inquiry ;
the former is
the sort
that points
to
the way
towards
the latter.)
mircea_popescu: sure, may have all sorts of other relevancies ; but not dispositive or even indicative re
the
theory of everything, or computing for
that matter.
mircea_popescu: yes, indisputably a mole happens on
the skin ; yes indisputably aunt molly's mole did in fact occur. nevertheless, irrelevant anecdote of no further import.
mircea_popescu: anyway, back
to phf 's
thing : i frankly dun
think rms/frf/etc are relevant here, not anymore
than aunt molly's mole is relevant in a discussion of dermatology.
a111: Logged on 2014-10-21 01:30 asciilifeform: 'As progressively dumber programmers build progressively more complex systems we will see more of
this kind of attempt
to paper over coding mistakes with lawyers, sanctions, policies, and laws. Hollywood and
the RIAA are usually
the most successful at getting
the government
to do
their bidding.
Thus I predict
that one day Disney will have a Web site where you can buy access
to any of
their movies. Because
mircea_popescu: the gall of
these shitheads. how DARE
THEY use fucking words other
than "fdsjkhgwreifgiwiotghfegbvhwerg"
to denote
their vomit.
mircea_popescu: Times have changed, women are now worthless, but computers aren't, and
these same dead hand fictions propose anew :
that
they own all computers,
that if you own a computer it's only a sublease from
them, subject
to furthering
their regulations and so on and so forth. Specifically excluded from all
this - what
the code actually says and does. Particularly "criminal" - using a computer in
the manner it itself allows
to be used."
mircea_popescu: nce of
the regulation
they emitted as
to how women may be used and may not be used and so on and so forth. Specifically excluded from all
this -
the woman in question. Particularly "criminal" at
the
time - using a woman in
the manner she herself wishes
to be used.
mircea_popescu: the book sez : "A parallel with human sexuality is not unwarranted here. At a past
time when
the ownership of female humans was
the principal method
to control capital formation and
the political process,
the same sort of dead hand fictions proposed
that
they in fact control
the usage of women,
that anyone owning a woman does so only as a sublicense from
their sovereign ownership of all women, and may proceed only in furthera
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i can't find
the one with "buy computing" like old dudes/church wanted
to "buy women". darn.
mircea_popescu: nevertheless,
there's a difference between secrecy AS A STATE and code sharing AS A PROCESS.
mircea_popescu: so in general, i expect
the notion of "code secrecy"
to be as nonsensical
today as when stallman was a wee
tyke getting started on other people's emacs.
trinque: and not generally with
the jewish grandmothers
trinque: it's a personal matter which would be evaluated in
the context of our friendship
mircea_popescu: what specific measures should he
take in his relations with his gf, other
than
the current precautions so wife doesn't find out,
to satisfy your needs ?
mircea_popescu: trinque what if say his gf splits, steals his hdds, now it's online (because she accidentally publishes it
through running open webserver os). now you negrate him ?
trinque: and I have 0% doubt
that he will do
that
trinque: I gave ben_vulpes an OS image a while back, asked
that he use it internally only
mircea_popescu: it's why nsa fails so badly. all
their budget goes
to filling
the barn, ~none
to guarding
the barn.
☟︎ trinque: but I don't want
to sign onto a
talmudic interpretation of WoT-o-tronics, either generally or in
this instance
