phf:
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-06-20#1485638 << btcbase is deployed using v (not quite fully automatically yet though), and there's all kind of support infrastructure in that folder that i don'
t want to diff every time, but also don'
t want to shuffle around
☝︎☟︎ thestringpuller: Yea. I don'
t think it was the version. I think I "broke" my chrome at work.
Framedragger: asciilifeform: so is it then because you need to insert them sequentially, you can'
t paralllelize because if you do you won'
t end up with db which'd have "*all* moduli tested against each other"?
shinohai: well perhaps they shouldn'
t spam treatises on bigger blocks to the blockchain, thereby reducing wasted space.
mircea_popescu: much like that slock muppet isn'
t coming out with a "we fucked it all up, i'm unqualified to trim hedges" suicide note.
mircea_popescu: in the new normal of usg agents, "you only say something if it benefits you". so they don'
t see the point of saying "we lost it all", because what's in it for them ?
shinohai: heh sigaint.org was pwnd years ago wasn'
t it?
mircea_popescu: hopefully it bleeds out the entirety of mit's 13 bn worth of paper "endowments" and we don'
t have to hear about that shithole ever again.
mircea_popescu: well, if this were some sort of uncontrollable spread by vector like infection, then yes. but in point of fact they're only contagious IF YOU AGREE. you don'
t have to agree.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: "Groups of scammers use these idiots, exactly like the 'Ndrangheta used that Josh Zerlan muppet" << goes back to the thread of "Bernie Madoff wasn'
t to blame alone"; i.e. the muppets that vouched/pumped his scam
mircea_popescu: "I will buy Ether from any users who rage quit because of a hard fork. It won'
t be much because most opposition here is from non-stakeholders trying to deny stakeholders their right to self determination." << that's how
http://trilema.com/2015/the-definitive-sovereign/ 's "the people themselves" is called now ? "right to self determination" ?
mircea_popescu:
t use it. After a few such run-ins, when I got ready to use the Hole Hawg my heart actually began to pound with atavistic terror.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: sure, also abducted. But note it is latest salvo in Gawker Media's "Trust us, we don'
t suck that much" campaign
mircea_popescu: actually it wouldn'
t surprise me for it to be illegal to own.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes> i don'
t even know where the servers are going to go yet. << hey, at least it's no longer "life in an elevator"
BingoBoingo: Asking trades people in don'
t drink club about suggested replacement tools some think a few America brand's tools were improved by being swept into the Techtronics juggernaut, but... will have to see
BingoBoingo: I don'
t think there are powered tools anymore that aren'
t chinese.
a111: Logged on 2016-06-20 02:28 BingoBoingo: A few months ago got my first cordless drill. Went with "Ryobi Starter Drill" so the battery would work with reciprocating saw I wanted which comes without battery. Reciprocating saw is wonderful. Drill chuck slips on drill bits all the time so in a futile effort
t detach chuck the contents of the drill's gearbox is now scattered on a corner of my desk.
phf: and by "everybody" you mean people who haven'
t gotten to throwing out grandpa's toolbox yet, and like the whole 6 of breed Soviet Engineers (two in argentina, one in south korea and the rest in u.s.)
BingoBoingo: anyways this time I'll probably actually try it in the store before leaving. Get drill, masonry bits, and concrete block then test it in the tool rental area. If people test riding morwers there I don'
t see why I can'
t test drill.

☟︎ phf: i have this etched really close up image of drill head in my head that i couldn'
t quite place until i realized just now that it's that very drill
BingoBoingo: Anyways apparently high end cordless tools are actually useful now since Techtronic of Hong Kong apparently OEM's for all the brands it hasn'
t bough and actually introduced *gasp* BRUSHLESS motors.
phf: i like comcast. it's the people's republic of america people's internet, it works, unless it doesn'
t, in which case go to competition lol
ben_vulpes: plus then i don'
t have to deal with running cat5 through living spaces, because in this povery-stricken part of the world everyone wants their data pipes in the room where children should be playing for some reason
ben_vulpes: i don'
t even know where the servers are going to go yet.
mats: if mpex had rounded rectangles fwr wouldn'
t have given it a second thought
mircea_popescu: hey, they wouldn'
t let go of mtgox until a year+ later and millions more were lost.
pete_dushenski: but how did greek blog get through pingback filter and contravex hasn'
t in, what, 1.5yr+ ?

http://idlewords.com/talks/website_obesity.htm << incidentally, i REALLY like this website. guy starts copacetic enough but actually takes things far enough. yes, ban any third party service, ads or anything else. website may not load any foreign elements, at all, just like it can'
t xss.
pete_dushenski: i was trying to figure out how to shut off the ios update notifications and stumbled onto 'osxdaily' and couldn'
t fucking believe my eyes. cook from central casting has absolutely spent every last penny of steve's good will
BingoBoingo: Although some sheriffs departments have police cheifs too when the sheriff is a figurehead that doesn'
t run their department.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i don'
t think the english had at any point decentralized charity.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the point isn'
t that one wants the poor to necessarily starve. the point however is that charity may not be centralised.
mircea_popescu: this is not so universal. some places/people can'
t live as independent human beings.
mircea_popescu: it only appeared in one place, thus therefore if you claim that one place was "palatial", then boom, and if you claim it isn'
t, then equally boom.
mircea_popescu: the reason you can'
t see it there has to do with the definitions rather than with the fact of the matter.
mircea_popescu: "why won'
t you be reasonable, mr X!" "because i'd like to do something!"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not product in any sense. everything we use is the accidental byproduct of what the palace would have wanted to but didn'
t manage to "bring under control".
mircea_popescu: it lies convincingly for some, but this happenstance doesn'
t speak in favour of their intelligence.
mircea_popescu: point in case : there isn'
t a 1% as much bitcoin-culture in all the usg.mit, usg.whartever sponsored "teams" and "think tanks" and etc of what's here.
mircea_popescu: not in the slightest. one doesn'
t follow from the other.
mircea_popescu: there's some dispersion re this property in nature. some animals will eat themselves sick. some won'
t.
mircea_popescu: incidentally : no camel back ever breaks. the animal won'
t stand if it ~thinks~ it's overloaded.
mircea_popescu: i don'
t think it's a matter of scarcity necessarily. that the sea flows through fjords does not mean the sea is finite.
mircea_popescu: there is that. but the clockwork of pretense doesn'
t actually prevent the general point.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: 0 to do with demand, which a) doesn'
t exist and b) is ALWAYS marketing driven anywa.
a111: Logged on 2015-01-11 03:50 mircea_popescu: i don'
t propose that rms "shouldn'
t have" or that fsf shouldn'
t have been or anything of the sort. but really, the pretense that at some point the situation seriously was, red pill vs blue pill and o'reilly of all people tricked everyone into getting the wrong pill...
shinohai: shouldn'
t this be possible to an extent with dumpblock ?
mircea_popescu: and when i finally croak ima go to saint peter an' say loudly an' clearly "what are you droning on about, old man, i didn'
t do nuttin'. ASK ANYONE!"
☟︎ mircea_popescu: slutty wife prays "god, let me be pregnant or not, but in either case please don'
t let my husband figure out HOW". socialist prays "god, let the etherape happen or not, but in either case please don'
t let THE BAD GUY have done things!"
daoattacker: what's hilarious is that the signature isn'
t even valid
thestringpuller: i don'
t think anything was wrong with that build just power outage corruption.
mod6: asciilifeform: hey (i think I've asked this before) but; the blkcut utility doesn'
t allow a guy to exacto-knife one block out of a blkindex file does it?
thestringpuller: and buterin is freaking out cause if they don'
t like the "hackers" coins, they can'
t move to PoS
thestringpuller: ^^^- that is I don'
t think it will send or ask for new blocks...it's "stuck" permanently.
thestringpuller: so i don'
t think it will sync to current. this was due to power outage. (i've done kill -9, so i'd assume same effect?)
mircea_popescu: with any luck, by 2017 they're entirely spent. that'd be such a perfect outcome of the whole ethereum idiocy i can'
t begin to tell you.
mircea_popescu: wasn'
t some stuff added by funkenstain and the p guy what was his name
