mod6: And if we can get, apparently 3, different lawyers to look at our case (are we interviewing them for free, or is there
a retainer for each? if so, how much?). please write down what they say, if they think we have
a good case, etc.
BingoBoingo: By my accounting payment made for october is
a floor on the damages to pursue.
BingoBoingo: Shave off
a month. Ceiling is around 8000 USD
BingoBoingo: mod6: They've been evasive on that, expressed willingness to offer
a "discount". They offered no exact sum. The range any sum they are capable of asking would fall into is enough to maybe or maybe not buy one of these

a pretty intense month - lot going on here. I've left my 9-5 job!
mp_en_viaje: then again i've been thinking this for years+ for many others, and generally tend to think thus, so it;s not exactly
a reliable explanation. more like my null hypothesis for some incomprehensible reason.

a couple of days behind on logz here; I've been horribly ill for the last 3 days. I'll start catching up, bbl.

BingoBoingo: Except... with
a lot more protein to work with
BingoBoingo: hanbot_abroad: AHA, kind how cornbread works applied to
a different cereal
trinque: I agree that there shouldn't be
a "the" wallet, too.

a fixed commitment up front. Also, I'm not the one baby sitting the rack this time.
BingoBoingo: After the last
communication I will take
a generous settlement and the copy I have been soliciting lawyers with includes that as the desired outcome.
trinque: maybe somebody wants rent. I used to fuck nothing but tattooed punk chicks with canvases before I became
a laptop creature for the money. this isn't such
a stretch.
trinque: there are also
a few operating dens in austin corporeally yet

trinque: one can't just do all the work himself forever; that isn't
a house, and it isn't *because* it's not growing
mp_en_viaje: ie, YET ANOTHER trilema prophetic piece, the schmuck in question hit the nat'l stage
a few years later and then... i dunno, i think he's being searched for by the interpol now, unless they found him ? i
mp_en_viaje: not from
a good life, this perception. but what can you do...
mp_en_viaje also suspects trinque had the help of
a whole regiment of little johny walkers to pierce through what he perceives, mostly of his own conception, the highly dangerous and difficult to cross dielectric insulation.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-19 01:27:38 trinque: let it be plain that I hate most of you. and you should hate me back. I don't want to hear another dipshit that can't find his way into

ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-19 01:26:47 trinque: oh and by the way, "making them sweat it" is not maximum pressure. it's avoidance behavior, the same as "tomorrow I'll be sober/file police report/make
a 'conversion engine'" whatever the fuck.
mp_en_viaje: yes, when the party was now in #trilema, something nobody had even heard of, everyone could recognize it, on the basis of "mp saying so", but that basis was built in turn, out of other things. it's
a fully dynamic thing, you can't arbitrarily static-ize "JUST THIS ONE" node and then archimede all over the place, 'by this fixed point i therefore move earth and sky'. there's no fixed point, and no matter which one you choose there
mp_en_viaje: it's this intricate ball of self-supporting yearn ; and it's by no means trivial
a job to identify which node supports which strand ; or how.

mp_en_viaje: get skinned over, and rot there, to be revisited at best again in
a painful supuration if at all. whereas if she lets you speak and says whatever later, exactly nothing's lost, not like she's about to forget her mind overnight.

a fish read
a story about
a sheep learning the torah, so it decided to learn to walk on land. it waited patiently for the rabbi to show up by the shore with
a line, and caught itself in the hook. the rabbi held his head, rolled his eyes, cursed in the winds but the fish practiced diligently and in
a short time was able to take half hour walks around the shore,
mp_en_viaje: sounds easy enough at the entrance gate ; but once inside it becomes obvious that where can't live, can't live. my constant "either help me build something, help the idiots be idiots, or be sad in
a corner -- there's no other option" is, similarily, insistently perceived as so much empty bravado at the gate. but, in reality, as time goes by...
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-16 11:02:58 mp_en_viaje: leave your mark in this world. kill some of the boys born the same as year as you. hurt some of the girls. make

a shit about one's ego. Best to attack them here

lobbes: in
a nutshell, the primary domains of the bot are
a) interfacing with IRC b) connecting to
a running mp-wp mysql database c) writing (and deleting) files in
a sub-directory of the mp-wp install directory
BingoBoingo: lobbes: I still gotta write
a post for asciilifeform on what
a shared hosting stack should look like. It may also be the case that the bot would be better with its own 'dulap' type server. I have not had time to sit down and catch up completely with the conversation surrounding this bot.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-17 01:44:25 mp_en_viaje: c) you're thinking too cleanly, which is adequate for republican work but inadequate to interfacing work (
a point somewhat reminescent of
this php discussion). it's the empire of shit for
a reason, let it have it.
mod6: Thanks for the update BingoBoingo. I'm
a couple of days behind on logz here; I've been horribly ill for the last 3 days. I'll start catching up, bbl.
BingoBoingo: And another lawyer has jsut set
a date for Monday.
BingoBoingo: Well, most recently recommnded lawyer so far is responsive, fellow who recommended him has actually used him as
a lawyer rather than merely an acquintance.
trinque: she's tiny, had hindbrain fear turning her into
a bitch at strangers
mp_en_viaje: i have been keeping
a (quite public, at that) log of
a wide reaching "where is it not raining" research project. expensive enough, too, i've been burning 4 figures/day, every day, since ~april. not that the point is how to make it cheapest or anything
mp_en_viaje: some dude draw me as hitler ; some other dude (quite good, too) drew eulora's splashscreen (and some kid another) and jesuis, what 12, there's
a bunch more.
mp_en_viaje: the reason i asked "why videogames" was because, oddly, that's the one field i feel like i've
a good grip on/.
mp_en_viaje: now, how to keep tmsr from being another xerox parc / symbolics / etc is, and has been
a major thing on my forebrain.
mp_en_viaje: to be quite frank, i wish for my sins i could be persuaded by the gloom and doom, "everyone's here idiots, will never do or amount to anything" and so on. i truly do, because my life'd be
a whole lot simpler. but... it's not there, here's
a group of people which over years not decades got
a LOT of shit together. as far as making quality products this hole's unparalleled.
mp_en_viaje: to circle back to the method : it's evident that reducing friction's universally
a major goal. so it seems to me. thus things like the orig line that started the discussion. it further seems to me that talking to people's the other major goal.
trinque: I've been cooking
a few videogame ideas though
mp_en_viaje: (hence my point, the whole underlying mechanism of savings and investing's naught besides delayed gratification as
a behaviour, which is how biologists call honor)
mp_en_viaje: by and large, on
a reasonable timespan, man on average does not eat.
mp_en_viaje: the "i'm not quite sunken low enough to eat here" coming before my leaving some shitty joint and the "i think nsa might finance
a serious attempt" before, what, they're based on money ? not directly. the first node's honor.
mp_en_viaje: all you do, in the end, is honor-driven not otherwise ; may be justified otherwise, but at the root and at the core, the quantum of deed runs on
a dropplet of honor.
mp_en_viaje: some guy arms
a ship to whatever, discover uraniumgold. why ? "to discover" my foot, it's for honor equally so, he figures the goal's respectable.
mp_en_viaje: i would certainly not mind it being baked, and i dunno, i'd have thought the pizarro history shewed clear enough i also don't mind people doing things on their own at all. you can make it if you want, that's not an issue. but you won't be able to make it as things stand, not anymore than you'll make
a useful electric car.
a central needed thing's not there.
mp_en_viaje: if you're interested in my (allegedly clueless, as it periodically is) understanding of the matter, alf wasn't interested in baking you
a rsa chip because the item is not currently feasible. it specifically requires an object not yet known to exist, the extremely long mult'er.
mp_en_viaje: do you perceive the whole adventure is actually
a grand scam, in the sense that what i claim is whatever, business republic bitcoin etc, but what i'm ~really~ looking for is people to prop up my ego somehow, like an elaborate social dance ? cuz i know full well success is impossible or something ?
mp_en_viaje: now, this may morph into
a very different, from the top down discussion, okay, if you will. but then let's carry it properly, neh ? rather than mix everything in there.
diana_coman: trinque: but if you make
a business out of it then part and parcel is precisely bringing people in to use it ie create the market, no?
ossabot: Logged on 2019-09-06 22:36:09 trinque: that thing has
a market. everyone knows tls is
a lie.
mp_en_viaje: is the idea that you're not interested in developing bitcoin things because you don't perceive there's
a way to benefit from it ?
