mircea_popescu: <punkman> "unsung tax agent" lol <<< "inexplicably, one of like five or six people DIDNT actually turn. at least so far. at least
as far
as we know. we're not really sure. DEMOCRACY PREVAILS!"
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: i've only ever had one fast car, and it grated on my nerves 98% of the time
as 98% of my driving is under 60 kph.
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes and i, for example, have waaaay too much in common (similar age, young families, upbringing, even geography's not ~that~ far off), which i'm pretty sure is what leads to our sometimes curt and unproductive tete-a-tetes de temps en temps
as we struggle to tease one apart from the other.
pete_dushenski: mats: well, this christmas you can be thankful that you don't have to contest with other chinese doods in b-a for that little niche (yes, there are niches in b-a,
as anywhere else).
assbot: Logged on 26-12-2015 01:11:01; thestringpuller: 'in the dark, all cats are black' (tm) (r) << or
as the negros sometime say. All pussy feels the same with the lights out.
mircea_popescu: it just so happened that the boundary split the 0a from the 0d in the 2nd case but not in the first, so
as to appear matching what i put in there.
mircea_popescu: if you want no-logins, you can make an anon ftp just
as well
mircea_popescu: this is no different from "for
as long
as ben_vulpes' thing continues to be a thing", is it ? you're gonna commit your life to dpaste ?
ben_vulpes: for
as long
as archive.is continues to be a thing.
assbot: Logged on 26-12-2015 04:48:32; phf: i think it's ascii's purity concern, rather then space
as such. why host someone else's graffiti, etc.

☟︎ phf: it's a pretty laid back option though, you're basically accepting
as much third party crud
as any regular paste service, but there's a gc that ties the whole thing to log, and culls the turds
ben_vulpes: anyways, the point remains. mircea_popescu did not select 0.5.3
as the root fork point.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: or
as that kid aptly said (in american history X), "on the internet, YOU'RE the nigger."
mircea_popescu: so this entire "unix terminal is retarded" thing isn't
as much of a concern
mircea_popescu: more importantly, anyone bored can kill themselves figuring out why the fuck i have to do two passes of sed interspersed with a grep to get the dumbass thing to work
as intended.
mircea_popescu: if it were the case that contracts came in '|tar bottles" reading plain english would be
as useful
as reading latin.
mircea_popescu: but a gpg would-be replacement that doesn't have clearsign is not actually usable
as a replacement
mircea_popescu: the reason for this is that so many titles start with The in english that it debalanced the sorting tree (implemented in nature
as shelves)
mircea_popescu: this is really not a bad motto for b-a ; the funny thing for me is how varied the reaction of people is
as they encounter it in practice.
mircea_popescu:
as illustrated by discussion of "entrepreneurs" quoted in the logs.
punkman: I don't want 'clearsigning', but if I'm gonna have ascii armored messages/sigs, might
as well stick them in one blob, and an unencoded "preview" of the message can be nice to have
assbot: Logged on 25-12-2015 11:26:49; ben_vulpes: there's an experimental aspect to it
as well, in the vein of getting more signed msterial out in the world
jurov: mircea_popescu:
as the pics are from '50-'60s, surely not.
assbot: Logged on 25-12-2015 09:15:18; ben_vulpes: the link you cite
as mircea_popescu picking 0.5.3 is a response to a request for a copy of the source of a particular vintage

☟︎ punkman: I guess it'd be useful
as deedbot input
assbot: Logged on 20-08-2015 09:40:13; punkman: (exercise for students: clearsign a piece of text. append
as many trailing spaces/tabs/CRs
as you like to the clearsigned text. check if it's still valid. repeat process with detached signature, see what happens)

☟︎ thestringpuller: i think shareholders forced apple to pay dividends cause sitting on
as much cash
as they allegedly had is extremely risky, cause inflation
mircea_popescu:
as if any judge has the authority to order such a wonder.
mircea_popescu:
as someone who actually fucks third worlders, i do not buy this.

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=24-12-2015#1352382 << the concept is sound, however mind that we don't end up with
as many patches
as linechanges. "one thing" should be liberally construed, "removing remaining wxisms" seems a one thing for me.
mircea_popescu: "Socialists revile the church not for its promulgation of irrational faith but because historically churches have championed the improvement of the world
as a thing that the devoted do—not a thing which may (or even should) be outsourced to le etat." << quite exactly.
mod6: i'll test a bit
as I said and then re-publish a new one when complet.e
assbot: Logged on 24-12-2015 19:56:44; mod6: mircea_popescu: going back to the .wot dir being created by default in the `pwd` of V : I would think that perhaps .seals should go in the same place
as well; `pwd`.
mod6: like Mr. P. said, there is no way I'm gonna be able to keep up with all of the feature requests here
as well.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: hard to beat "cheap calories"
as a warm blooded lifeform.
mircea_popescu: a) the people who had a dacha were happy
as is, no need to chase it
mircea_popescu: yup. take chicken liver. i love it. so does everyone who had sane enough parents to have it
as a kid.
mircea_popescu: it will alright. for
as long
as TSA disputes end up in federal court rather than in burning baltimore, it'll be thinking right about how well being naughty works for its goals.
mircea_popescu: "r. In an investor document about the sale that was distributed to shareholders, employees discovered their Good stock was valued at 44 cents a share, down from $4.32 a year earlier. In contrast, preferred stock owned by Good’s venture capitalists was worth almost seven times
as much, more than $3 a share."
mircea_popescu: "This guy barely ekes out a living wage in Romania. Rule #1 in building a cult of personality is to pose
as if you're raking in the cash, no matter how poor you are. But any idiot can see that (a) this guy cannot even travel to the US because of the legal problems with MPEX, (b) he makes no money from any source, and (c) he's a loser."
mircea_popescu: the point isn't "the money", the money is always and everywhere
as it is here a token. the point of the bribe is that the bribed becomes part of the clan of the briber, it's exactly a fucking wedding.
mircea_popescu: "f0or
as long
as we define bribing in terms that make it impossible, it was impossible to bribe an usian to move to su in those days"
