mircea_popescu: and in other news us T bonds are getting massacred.
BingoBoingo: Anyways, the best part of light satire is trolling the people who in their hearts want to believe with us but can't because idiot redditards.
trinque: "if'n u don't like it, u kin geeedddout"
mod6: but I did send an email to the ML about 2.5 hours ago that didn't get bounced. probably stuck in the pipe again.
a111: Logged on 2016-11-30 02:03 jurov: i'd recommend joker.com for domains, typically swiss approach, using them for years. but they don't accept bitcoins.

jurov: will look into tomorrow if it won't clear by itself
mod6: shouldn't be a problem... so weird
mod6: <+jurov> seems up. don't you have aws ec2 firewalled? << no not at all actually, i have an ec2 instance that i'm connected to from the same place I'm trying to make this failing request from as I type this.
mod6: i can't seem to hit it from my one thing, but from the other it's fine.
mod6: i didn't even try to send, was just trying to view the page...
jurov: seems up. don't you have aws ec2 firewalled?
mats: i haven't seen seymour hersh discredited yet
asciilifeform: jurov: your copy of 'diff' doesn't barf on 卍☭卍☭卍☭ ??
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the "doesn't matter cycles are cheap" happens to be exactly the gavin argument.
mircea_popescu: or more generally, can't have static solutions to process problems.
mircea_popescu: but the technical problems aren't at issue here - it's the sociocultural compact of the deliberately-ignorant that are the issue.
mircea_popescu: in principle there is a strong argument to say "alphabet size = machine word size" even if this didn't hold on pre-8 bit machines. and consequently you ~could~ have a type string that always takes 4 bytes and represents whatever the fuck. the problem is that this gives you a 400% memory allocation bloat for that type of string.
mircea_popescu: as far as i know it's all clean to date, which is why this discussion didn't spring naturally
ben_vulpes: lxc didn't predate?
phf: afaik heroku invented the whole "container" thing, i.e. instead of oldfag unixing you have a thing with many slots, that takes ruby code, provides postgresql, etc. so that you don't actually need to know anything outside of your rails world
ben_vulpes: shotgun blasts of capital don't really count for "made"
ben_vulpes: i never saw a signed anything, couldn't possible say "who" "did" anything
asciilifeform: it wasn't mega-seekrit, ben_vulpes
asciilifeform: hey it isn't any crazier than the geoip routine
mircea_popescu: adlai i suspect in us-english parlance of the time, "moral" simply means "abstract". ie, don't count your ballsac.
trinque didn't understand wtf Joshua-I is trying to say
Joshua-I: it doesn't necessarily imply anything at all ultimately if you will pursue any ends
Joshua-I: but the point is this fundamental self hatred isn't necessarily limiting
a111: Logged on 2016-11-28 21:43 mircea_popescu: understand : when dorks dork on about "putting abstract principles above the people themselves" in http://trilema.com/2014/the-definitive-tract-on-sociopathy/ ; or when random nobody "does not have time to read logs" or "doesn't believe phuctor did so and so" or "doesn't see why should get a pgp key" or "doesn't think bitcoin can work" etc etc, there displayed is the SAME fundamental anti-idealism of the deliberately stupid l

mircea_popescu: consider the very strict vlad the impaler - brasov merchants opposition. the "financial elites" proposed the guy's administration will result in you know, economic collapse. didn't.
mircea_popescu: they evidently didn't kill gengis.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but it isn't "of the day". it's the one fungus.
mircea_popescu: they're both equally serious - which is to say as serious as they can be which isn't much.
mircea_popescu: so you don't see how early protestants map to modern jewry ? rly ?
mircea_popescu: or did you mean "the other side doesn't map" ?
mircea_popescu: you don't even have to look at it. just the fact that the cockroaches exist, somewhere nearby, will fuck up your shit and sour the milk in your fridge.
mircea_popescu: because paleologoi polluted the square - not with nuclear waste, which resolves in a century, but with cultural waste, which doesn't resolve in millenium+
asciilifeform: it isn't even the cheapening. trabant did 0 damage to the ~idea~ of the auto. it is instead the deliberate mass-farming of subhuman 'democratic' fungus.
mircea_popescu: i wouldn't necessarily mind one for eulora. the problem is that in this, like every other field, the tinydicked western men are entirely infertile. all they want is to copy and reimplement, which is how they ended up doing THE SAME FUCKING GAME 500 times. ever heard of ultima ? how about runescape ? guess what - it's the same fucking thing, down to the t, by which initialism we mean the fucking tutorial. EXACTLY. oh and plane
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform don't knock it, "conlangs" eh ?
asciilifeform: aha, and i don't expect the radio repeater thing to become a future s.nsa item either
asciilifeform: mats: it wouldn't hurt. but keep in mind, i will not be designing this board, not now. hands -- full.
asciilifeform: mats: it means that i don't pay motherfucking retail price. y'know, one where you feel like complete idiot because 'hack magazine' folk are buying ENTIRE BOARDS for below what you pay per-chip.
hanbot: if anyone is trying to maintain old ubuntu installs, and ran into this bs where synaptic/apt-get no longer works because it can't locate any repos: the nice ubuntu folks broke their directory scheme. edit /etc/apt/sources.list and replace "us.archive." with "old-releases." and then hit reload. for as long as that lasts.
a111: Logged on 2016-11-28 19:57 pete_dushenski: ya i can see that. i don't find the period entirely hermetic, just unfamiliar as i slowly bridge the gaps in my historical knowledge between the romans and the french revolution. currently working backwards from the end of that period via peter the great's life and times.
asciilifeform: ( in a much earlier even thread , about the marvell chipset used in pogotron, i found same thing -- the chip is simply not www-orderable in the west, at least not at any kind of price point that isn't a laugh when stood next to the price of whole pogo )
asciilifeform: mats: i handed out a bunch of chinese sample boards at conf3, didn't help...

pete_dushenski: for that we can blame bannon. i didn't ask to research the complicated tudors. just what came up on the docket.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: a slave isn't a slave to all, just to his master. so it was that clement vii was obsequious to charles v, not henry viii. anyways i can see that the sentence was poorly worded and it's been corrected. so cheers :D
mircea_popescu: e popping of the libertard delusion" thing). apparently, and seriously, who could have predicted this, apparently diverging from consensus reality is only bad when the OTHER guys do it. you know those racist sociopaths who didn't buy the global warming fraud.
mircea_popescu: trinque i don't think there's anything meaningful there ; should prolly purge all those with a nil reputation string.
mircea_popescu: my point is not that i could or couldn't fix it as much as it is i shouldn't have to. i also don't change diapers for the people i go out to dinner with, notwithstanding i ~could~.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i can't be arsed to spent time on it tbh. either it works out of box or doesn't work at all is the extent of my patience.
mircea_popescu: the exercise of today being a fine point in case - they can't even be used to play games, though they may marginalloy fit it, we'd be all in bed.
mircea_popescu: course the fact that radeon had a stellar reputation for being an unworking buggy pos throughout the 90s didn't help
mircea_popescu: sadly heroes suffers from the same problems of poker, can't play more than 2.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/7hblX/?raw=true << and i fully don't expect you to tell me anything on the basis of it, because it's quite evident it contains nothing useful.
mircea_popescu: chiefly because i can't conceive of a mapping between the pile of trash and a log file.
mircea_popescu: they literally ran a bunch of sed, /holocaust/global warming/ /jews/racists/ whatever, same exact structure down to the t.
mircea_popescu: zombies don't tend to notice what parts they lose on the way.
mircea_popescu: it's so bad i can't even close it.
mircea_popescu: course planescape torment doesn't doxbox
mircea_popescu: wasn't he the guy with a worrisome wood fetish ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, none of you understand how the world works. it isn't that anyone GOT shot. at all. nobody gives a shit what happens. it's that someone COULD HAVE!!!! that's the only fucking point.
asciilifeform: so, if corpse count isn't at least 4 bits long, it ain't a postal.
hanbot: r/python doesn't like your latest mircea_popescu
Joshua-I: Don't worry, I'll send it another time; I've been drinkin'
fd_travel: i dunno. i mean i haven't been to asia before, 'twas an opportunity out of nowhere, why not :)
fd_travel: i haven't seem much, i'm in this hackaton and we're rushing
BingoBoingo: Eh, they haven't discovered everything better about building in one letter.
BingoBoingo: needless to say don't install the iso on an internet connected machine to "fix later". Make fresh iso.
phf: oddly enough i don't
trinque: ah looks like the db isn't totally normalized
shinohai: I was hacking around with a bash function so I could view wot in w3m, was driving me crazy until I realized wot.deedbot.com doesn't recognize fingerprints in all caps
BingoBoingo: ^ A bit meater because sorta stuff happened but didn't really hit the father of Kim K's children test for getting own headlines
mircea_popescu: "shells that were artificially created" takes the cake. it's not just that putin doesn't understand how the world works - it's that the one true socialism is the only NATURAL producer of artefacts
a111: Logged on 2016-11-26 17:02 mircea_popescu: Really, the big one was money. When $50 a month is critical to survival you know it ain't the time for that. So we got through our 10 years of law school, money pit foreclosure...and finally on the other side debt eliminated, lifestyle downsized, we are ready to jump in again." << probably the best in the lot. "reality tv stars" / 10 years of lawschool can't afford 50 bux. AMERICA! and do you know what comes right after ?

mircea_popescu: "We have televisions in our house, we just stopped paying for the service around 2006. Was it a coincidence that we soured on television viewing in the same months we had just finished filming our own debut on HGTV? Probably not, if you've read my explanations of the aftermath. Being on "reality TV" after an intense week of acting made my favorite shows lose the glitz I'd viewed them with. But that wasn't the only reason.
mircea_popescu: "oh we can't use cs, no cs implementation exists" "orly ? guess what - no rsa implementation exists either!"
a111: Logged on 2016-11-26 15:49 shinohai: Isn't there a decrufted version of gpg floating around on deedbot somewhere? apt wants to install this gpg2 garbage despite my best efforts
mircea_popescu: ah, i did post one didn't i.

pete_dushenski: in other talents, turns out osxen doesn't like multiple version of python in its .bash_profile. so confuzine! (maybe everyone but pete knew this already but it was minor annoyance for ~10 mins while 'ssh could not be found')
mircea_popescu can't recall ever encountering a talented child ; nor a mother who thought her child's untalented.
mircea_popescu: and in other news holy shit this lamb/lynx gaede couple can't fucking sing. i mean they're horrid even by teen pop standards.
mircea_popescu: the fundamental idiocy of it all you know, "let's retire" x item of fantasy because... it wouldn't work irl.
mircea_popescu: aha. seems pretty established by now that they won't yield with their heads attached.
mircea_popescu: aww kicking dilma out didn't magically fix anything ?
mircea_popescu: so i had a router fail it the most amazing manner overnight. it powercycles - turns on, blinks the downstream connections for a second, then power goes off, then back on again. it doesn't look analog at all, like failing power lines, but very much a time-precise cycle, almost as if it's being flooded (which it isn't) or getting whatever magical packet in a loop.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform organ of corti was one of the early miner commentators that both produced a large body of work and wasn't incredibly batshit insane to the point of stabbing his own eyes throughout
mircea_popescu: it's incredibly common isn't it
BingoBoingo doesn't either
asciilifeform: Framedragger: it ain't ever running a gossip node or anything that isn't apache for that matter
Framedragger: re tmsr dns, in principle don't see why not - it could just as well just update quite often. but not sure if gossipd is taken into account (but then not sure about ip stack either, so..)
Framedragger: ("went off the deep end" is not a nice thing to say but it doesn't connote with money, usually, i would think.)
Framedragger: he didn't say that mp ran with the money.
