phf: asciilifeform: i can feel delays in x11 emacs after working on a hardware terminal, which makes me conclude that "feels" kind of changes once you get used to it. i can'
t use popular hipster software for example, because it's definitely slower
phf: trinque: i'd like to at least try it out. i'm unconvinced clim is a good idea, because there aren'
t any good implementations. mcclim is terribly over-engineered (in the best of java style, with delegates for proxies etc.), clim codebase that lispworks/allegro share is less so, but more hacky. which makes me wonder if clim spec itself is suspect
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: note in passing that one of the more substantial objections "people in the know" aka niggers raise to a trump presidency is that "he won'
t be able to staff wh, he could barely staff his campaign".
trinque: when you can'
t trust those, your problem lies not in engineering...
mircea_popescu: yes, all "costs", esp in the sense that if your industrial base sucks, you don'
t get one.
mircea_popescu: you can'
t predict what i'll do, and you can'
t ensure against all the things i might do.
mircea_popescu: also i have nfi how they imagine reality works, but in principle it's true that "the random process of nuclear decay is the gold standard of rngs" FOR THE REASON that you can'
t use arithmetics to distinguish one clump of radioactive substance from "another" clump.
mircea_popescu: come to think about it i'm getting fucking ridiculous over here, "oh, mp is against drugs and pot and doesn'
t watch porn and totally straightedge".
mircea_popescu: also, just in case anyone had any doubts - vlc is thoroughly broken. no historical package up to 0.7 (ie five years ago) is capable of compiling (fails because can'
t find dbus >= 1.0.0 which you know, 2006)
trinque couldn'
t stand writing one command "open all the shit I use to work on project P" in multiple languages, the cost being stepping around various exwm bugs
mircea_popescu: "if it dun work don'
t bother us - you broke it, you fix it."
mircea_popescu: this sounds a lot like "my car engine doesn'
t run smooth so i'm going to fix the steering wheel, gas pedal etc."
mircea_popescu: i don'
t get it. what exactly can it be other than "a text program" ?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Because classic version. New factory homes are the ones which can'
t even litorrally.
gabriel_laddel: masamune news: I've a machine for hosting the channel + logs+backups, but it is missing a power cord and doesn'
t have a bootable linux on it :/ Have never installed on a computer that didn'
t at the very least give me a boot screen, so have nfi how long this will take.
phf: it was an end of line corner case that i didn'
t test, but no not altering, just the highlighting part
mircea_popescu: on the basis of recorded history sheep aren'
t safe if enough alcohol.
phf: i have by the way fixed url delimiters on btcbase. now if url ends in > ; . , and ) it won'
t include those chars. that might break a url in a case or two, but in most cases that actually fixes them
shinohai: Build from sauce? Ain'
t nobody got time for that!
ben_vulpes: "guy we swear is this other guy who nominally but not provably does a thing also came up with a 'cryptocurrency' that doesn'
t have hard guarantees on monetary base numbers'
mircea_popescu: morelike with the logic that they by and large couldn'
t hire people above 98 iq even with the bonuses.
mircea_popescu: "ship to irak tomorrow, and if they don'
t blow you up we'll give you 20k". wait 10 years after which "oh btw, only kidding about those 20k. whatcha gonna do about it bitch, NOT GO TO IRAK NO MOAR ? AHAHAHAHA"
mircea_popescu: o look, also wants to double the americorps payola. weren'
t they taking it back from suckers 10 years later recently ?
mircea_popescu: "this is not a normal launch like any other scamcoin because we would really like it not to be, and reality shouldn'
t get in the way of what we want"
shinohai: anywho is I find a way to contact them I'll hit you up if you don'
t mind signing a message from that addy.
phf: i don'
t know what to do with that knowledge, like ark of the covenant, it might be ultimate weapon
phf: armenia wasn'
t part of russia until 19th century, and in 16th century it wouldn'
t yet be under iranian influence, so it's possible that it was brought all the way from iran as bademjan
phf: hah, that's why i like baba ganoush, but i don'
t know the recipe for later. when cooked russian style it's somewhat different from what they sell as baba ganoush in u.s.
BingoBoingo: phf: trinque is right. Don'
t think of them as potatoes. Think of them as a sort of underground squash.
mircea_popescu: at least you didn'
t end up with horse radish / nightshade mix.
mircea_popescu: i don'
t much care for the sweet stuff, so i don'
t usually eat it. i think it's acquired thanksgiving taste.
phf: i don'
t get sweet potatoes, i've been trying to work with them, but they don'
t seem to ever come out tasty. i even tried them as fries..
BingoBoingo: Nah, because wear items always evade permanent solutions. They aren'
t plinths.
ben_vulpes: i ain'
t even take remedial kink and that shit's retarded
BingoBoingo: "One of the people who was sought in the probable cause action was killed. Another person was injured and transported to an area hospital where he was later arrested, according to an FBI press release obtained by Breitbart Texas at the time." << Pussies at Breitbart won'
t give Lavoy Finicum his NAME!.
mircea_popescu: you really don'
t want to mix the hygroscopic cocaine with skin brine.
BingoBoingo honestly surprised the Pinoys haven'
t flooded the Qntest yet
pete_dushenski: that half the peripherals don'
t work is ~ironic~. see ? zhe didn'
t even want them to work
BingoBoingo: My the goings on in the world. What a week to be celebrating continuous sobriety! And I haven'
t even had my cake yet!
mircea_popescu: other than the shocking fact that apparently this isn'
t normal, BingoBoingo 's link also provides a lead to what apparently is a ~community~ based on... not having sex against one's will ? with identity issues and a word for "normies" and everything ?
trinque: "we don'
t know what it did, so it's encrypted!"
phf: pete_dushenski: i looked at eizos, but it's another minefield. they seem to have a "prosumer" line, that's the same trash you get elsewhere. and then there's pro line that's 2k+, but you can'
t just judge by the price. gotta know what you're doing. hence hunting for apple cinemas, i know they worked well for me in the past.
trinque: also isn'
t this the thing with a chip IN THE CABLE?!
mircea_popescu: the whole "clinton is looking past trump" angle they jews ran with last week didn'
t look like it was going anywhere.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform fwiw, i don'
t think much of ortega y gasset's notions of what makes the man. "sense of duty" my left foot.
mircea_popescu: in other random tidbits : sort -u -
t, -k1,1 (sort, unique, comma delimited, first column only)
mircea_popescu: (the solution, for completeness is sort -
T /path to drive with plenty of space. which usually isn'
t mounted as /tmp/ which is its default)
shinohai: I didn'
t expect it to gain traction for at least 24 hours.
phf: don'
t think this was in logs,
https://archive.is/scAgB "U.S. courts: Electronic surveillance up 500 percent in D.C.-area since 2011, almost all sealed cases"
hanbot: also, people who know why there's a traffic jam generally...don'
t end up in the traffic jam, lol
hanbot: mircea_popescu> there's hundreds of shops, literally, and they all do it by hand. selection being what it is... << actually the majority of them suck in the over-sugared + giant ice crystals sorta vein, but we don'
t put those on your list ;)
mircea_popescu: bitchez today be cray, man. i tried to take one out for icecream and she wouldn'
t come because she has to prepare for burlesque show on friday.
mircea_popescu: hmm i suppose that didn'
t come out quite right. you know, pusstard as in pussy custard.
mircea_popescu: that you can'
t buy a two dollar lolipop with a six quarters.
mircea_popescu: but it's not at issue whether it's real to me. it's real to you too, and verifiably so by you too, i don'
t have to enter into it.
phf: ah, actually it's my bad. they also have when-let* that makes clauses depend on each other and shortcut on first failure. this is in parallel to let/let*, where let doesn'
t guarantee order of execution, so i guess shortcut makes no sense. a very pedantic take on the problem..
phf: apparently alexandria:when-let is not identical to naggum's whereis. the first one doesn'
t shortcut, and will evaluate all the clauses even if the first one fails
mircea_popescu: you can'
t say people not holding your beliefs are holding the belief of not-your-belief.
mircea_popescu: i dunno what he means, tbh. as far as i'm concerned, if she's obedient and tall enough there's exactly nothing more one can ask. if you don'
t like her tits you talk to a doctor ; if you don'
t like her ass she works out, each day, every day. all good ass is made not fallen from the sky, there are no excuses. if she doesn'
t know shit you teach her, if she has bad habits you train her, there's really naught more. this is a belie
trinque: it's kinda interesting... the muslim guy says "I can'
t have a woman, so I'll kill everyone for god" and the christian says "I can'
t have a woman; god please kill me"
pete_dushenski: dunno wat the hell they're teaching kids in school these days but is sure as hell isn'
t anything of practical import.
shinohai: In the US, I'd wager most dumb theives couldn'
t work the paddle shifters anyway
danielpbarron: mircea_popescu, i wouldn'
t call bitcoin or the republic thereof your core beliefs. I'd say it'd be your stance on women and the poor.
mircea_popescu: in the same vein i don'
t think i ever discussed the republic so far, a testament to how it's not a household item and so nobody knows to ask. i don'
t think i much care about anything else, and still i can'
t bring myself to give a shit about what anyone thinks of these, because why would i ?
mircea_popescu: well yes but isn'
t the entire rational point of belief that you isolate circularity there and therefore need no more of it anywhere else ?
