asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: lol! notice what's in the last pic in link
billymg: might have missed the part about having kids though
billymg: yeah, i knew as much from the logs
BingoBoingo: billymg: The guy used to hang around here until the children came and ate his time. ☟︎
billymg: seems kind of lazy/cynical given the >10x markup (or perhaps an april fools joke?)
billymg: BingoBoingo: i do kind of like the aesthetic, but would like it more if the board was mounted and the case had port cutouts, etc., so that it could be used in that form
BingoBoingo: $ 4,999 (+$50 S&H)ix and this Limited Edition Collector’s Survival Kit could be yours!: ☟︎
BingoBoingo: In other discoveries: http://www.contravex.com/2019/03/30/the-21st-century-emergency-kit-fg-inside/ "But that’s not all! In addition to being super sensible and oh so au courant, FG INSIDE doubles (triples?) as an icon of industrial design. Like the Eames Lounge or the iPod before it, its pared-down simplicity and resolute transparency make it a work of artistic expression reflective of, and integral to, our present day and age. USD
Mocky: the rss import can handle it, but that can't import post tags
Mocky: I've been building my wp import file out of my feed template. It's basically rss with additional wp tags. I just discovered the reason why only the last post in the file has been getting imported: wp import can't handle </item><item> without whitespace between.
billymg: but i know i'll have to pause on that to put together a test suite (which should actually be a great way of identifying what needs to *remain*)
billymg: it is deeply satisfying work ripping out the cruft in that thing
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, it's altogether dubious mp-wp is program, or really anything other than an overgrown script.
deedbot: hanbot rated hanbot-abroad 1 << A true, certified hanbot-lite.
BingoBoingo: In other updates, cuntoo takes less than 12 hours to compile on new rig. Gotta fuck the kernel config and details to get it to boot.
a111: Logged on 2017-07-08 03:49 asciilifeform: i just counted gpg 1.4.10 : 156,436 loc -- and that ain't counting the autoconf liquishit, or the libs it pulls in
a111: Logged on 2018-11-29 19:10 asciilifeform: ( for comparison: e.g. http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-08#1680705 ; or, current trb is ~22k loc, ~not~ incl. the dep balls )

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-03-30#1906193 << interestingly, at 139.2 kloc , still 1 of the heaviest proggies in civilized use; vs, e.g., trb ( http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-29#1876053 ) ; but lighter than koch gpg ( if minus autoconf, http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-08#1680705 ) or linux kern. ☝︎☝︎☝︎
a111: Logged on 2019-03-31 00:59 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-03-30#1906196 << is this from that one time when the usg killed like 500 random afghanis it had kidnapped and then pretended like fifty or so survived in order to give "deep cover" to various agents ?

BingoBoingo: Well, with Brexit looking more like something the EU is going to end up imposing on Britain than anything Britain is going to do... EU is getting bold.
Mocky: im surprised eu beat the us to the auto-speed-nag punch actually
BingoBoingo: I never had to get a car inspected in my corner of old country. All registered just outside the mandatory inspection zone.
Mocky: for motorcycles tho, they check lights and tires only. NC is not strict like NY, more like how asciilifeform describes.
Mocky: a couple years ago they bumped the penalty for fake sticker up from violation to misdemeanor. and also added it to the auto-plate-scanning-database system in most cop cars so alarm goes off for cop every time a car with expired inspection in the morning database goes past.
a111: Logged on 2019-03-28 17:14 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, they have this testing office here, they give you a stamp that the car is up to spect technically, good for 1 year. (good measure too, the tubs these people drove before it... jesus f. even now you see trucks dead in middle of onramp cuz unmaintained engine finally croaked etc)
Mocky: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-03-28#1905680 << same deal in NY state, very strict for autos, long list of items checked. any one fails then whole inspection fails. ☝︎
Mocky: billymg: ok I'll have a look, thx
BingoBoingo: In the Forever War facts stumbled upon, apparently John Walker Lindh is set to be released May 23rd. ☟︎

diana_coman: " Were Trilema as small as you ever wish it to be, an ephemeride living its day of life in the shadow of the largest Egyptian pyramid, yet what would be the deepest difference between Trilema and that pyramid ? Not density, nor size, nor duration in time nor anything like that, but the one fundamental fact, that while the little insect lives, however shortly, however precariously, the pyramid does not, and never has." -> Caragiale ref spotted!
billymg: this was reground to go on top of hanbot's latest to fix html tags in comments from logged out users
mircea_popescu: you don't mean "One time I want to draw your attention to #selection-387.154-389.22 while some other time #selection-43.21-43.46 is the point of interest." ? that's deliberate!
asciilifeform: http://trilema.com/2019/antiqua-sanctorum-patrum-or-the-lordship-list-sixth-year/#comment-128755 << mega-likbez, btw, imho belongs in the log ☟︎
asciilifeform was aboutta ask 'what's CheapWhore's mother lang' then realized the inescapable answr
feedbot: http://trilema.com/2019/the-saddest-thing-in-the-world/ << Trilema -- The saddest thing in the world...
mircea_popescu: just like in their view, the fact that they befouled science with their politico idiocy means something about science. they didn't, by their lights, made the profession of "earth scientist" nigh on impossible for the average man. they, on the contrary, are forcing my hand when it comes to such topics.
asciilifeform: i.e. 'dun matter that you took the sweat to write it in king's english, we're gonna throw hieroglyphs in' ?
mircea_popescu: so in their view, the fact that the uniturds ~are already there~ binds us to forever keeping them.
mircea_popescu: "what do you mean, you will burn ALL the books ?!?!" "of course i will, keks."
mircea_popescu: the most disconcerting thing to pantsuit is the http://trilema.com/2014/how-to-deal-with-pseudoscience/ stance.
mircea_popescu: a mistake powered by the fact that up until they came about tradition consisted of naggum's library. so of copurse thinking man wouldn't part with it.
mircea_popescu: they perceive that opposition===conservative and their understanding of "conservative" is "would never break with tradition"
asciilifeform: even through ~this~ lens, seems peculiar. ( what does it achieve for'em, to litter www with бнопня вхрюк
mircea_popescu: the evil wreckers of the 90s were systematic in their dedication to destruction (called "democracy" and "humanism" whatevber bla bla in-universe)
asciilifeform: i cant fathom presently why that is even in there. but possibly this q dun have a logical answr
asciilifeform: when i get a chance to fiddle with my wp again, tho, would 1st like to find & kill the uniturdation thing
asciilifeform: i gotta bake a 'recent comments' thing like mircea_popescu has , tho ( possibly will crib from his )
mircea_popescu: "my concubine -- just when i figured she's about to deliver, she turned out to be fulla shit."
asciilifeform: well no, wouldn't be interesting then, they still manage to take occasional shit
mircea_popescu: "since stuffing buttplugs in all the slavegirls buttholes, there's 0 HS in the toilet gastrap. and their assholes still work, i checked -- though they never saw much use before either."
asciilifeform: ( it's the stock ancient-wp trap )
mircea_popescu: a spam trap with 0 spams in it is not much of a trap hm ?
asciilifeform: meanwhile, in olds, asciilifeform's 'xor 2 small numbers'+'say fg baud' spam filter seems to be 100% effective (a 1st?!) -- 0 spams in trap since installed ( legit comments , not many , but work -- tho there were never many ) ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2019-03-30 05:41 BingoBoingo: In other undyings, apparently mozilla now exists to keep Java runtime alive https://archive.is/PhKa8
mircea_popescu: speaking of http://btcbase.org/log/2019-03-30#1906140 : https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=234966 factually still a firefox bug today, FIFTEEN YEARS. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: What can I say, the future is autocorrupt
mircea_popescu: (which is actually quite close to reality ; certainly way the fuck close than anything reported by usg bureaucracy)
BingoBoingo: In other undyings, apparently mozilla now exists to keep Java runtime alive https://archive.is/PhKa8 ☟︎
BingoBoingo: And oddity of oddities, the link to Gawker.com resolves alive
BingoBoingo: Pretty much this https://longform.org/posts/my-kasual-kountry-weekend-with-the-knights-of-the-ku-klux-klan
mircea_popescu: anyway, the derpage's misplaced, what the fuck did he think "tenure" was ?
BingoBoingo: Otherwise the ring budget outruns the beef budget very quickly
BingoBoingo: NOT EVERYTHING IS MEANT TO BE MARRIED TO EVERYOTHER THING
mircea_popescu: it's how traditional marriage works, neh ? "can divorce the stupid cunt through the process of finding her a hubstitute. can also divorce prison or military service the same way"
BingoBoingo: "CAN YOU BELIEVE THEY HAVE THAT SHIT IN THEIR CONTRACT? IF I HAD KNOWN THAT WAS EVEN A POSSIBILITY I WOULD HAVE TRIED TO GET THAT IN MY OWN DAMN CONTRACT. YOU CAN’T LAY ME OFF, EVER? YOU MUST FIND ME A NEW JOB IN PERPETUITY? I HAVE BECOME KING OF THE WORKPLACE AND ALL I SURVEY. THE MIGHTY UNION HAS GRANTED US ALL A JOB FOR LIFE. BOW DOWN."
BingoBoingo: Sample of the HamNo mentality https://archive.is/WtEVs
BingoBoingo: Iowa is just about all fat fucks. That's pig county
BingoBoingo: Nah, the wannabe muscle dude. Looks almost exactly like Stomer's Anglin in 320x240 photos
mircea_popescu: is this the dumb fat fuck from iowa ?
BingoBoingo: Anyways, last I checked the corpse, Hamilton Nolan still not fired because he's the op's Political Officer.
BingoBoingo: The seacritters to eat here... are lacking in variety
mircea_popescu: must try to believe.
a111: Logged on 2019-02-14 19:28 mircea_popescu: because they're talking veneto.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in other http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-14#1896552 : smoked sprats served with penne al'olio, with vinegar pickles on the side and a sprinkling of capers is easily the most representatively venetian dish i ever had -- notwithstanding as far as i know i just invented it in my own kitchen ☝︎
BingoBoingo: Seriously. Lately I've been enjoying the private satisfaction of Colita de Cuadril passing "Suprema de Ave" as the premium protein per peso cut of critter
mircea_popescu: pretty fucking lulzy to look back in the timeline and stumble over perfect calls.
BingoBoingo: Anyways, no people in NY this century ☟︎
