asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 2MB/s of vaguely humanlike, or of ntp etc ?
asciilifeform: congrats to mircea_popescu on ru hosting!
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: It would also be interesting to read your counter-complaint - I can only imagine it follows along the lines of your correspondence with the SEC, but with a few more insults thrown in for good measure
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: not detectably scammed, but the confirmation www does not appear to work.
ascii_field: you know, the computer mircea_popescu uses
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i had no idea there was restorepkg for a «Сетунь» !
assbot: Logged on 14-04-2015 10:57:38; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-04-2015#1100564 << you want it, you got it. vip treatment beotch!!1
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: military rations are good ?! << nope - very bad, but with minimal effort. like the 'hiring shaman - hire cheapest' theorem.
felipelalli: mircea_popescu: thank you for your considerations, you're right. nubbins` thank you for comprehend.
nubbins`: <+ascii_field> <mircea_popescu> and YET you protest the hyena << so i had a quiet and physically clean upbringing. this is who i am. i get that it gives me a short life expectancy, yes. but jumping from cliffs doesn't grow wings, no. <<< the sets of {co-inhabitants} and {dirtbags} don't have as complete an overlap as you'd think
nubbins`: <+ascii_field> nubbins`: if i worked in a cubicle, the last thing i would do is buy a pogo and mess with it << what did you buy and play with instead? a nagant, testing how it feels in the mouth, as in mircea_popescu's 'dulap' story ? <<< not in so many words :P
ascii_field: <Chillum> his hostile code should have sat dormant for 6 months, then someone with no obvious connection to him should have got the ticket << i suppose this is when nubbins` says 'learn the dark marketz, anyone can!' and mircea_popescu tells us about the superiority of human dark org vs relying on machines
adlai: mircea_popescu: so are the average price diamonds in mpex thumbnails intentionally so dark as to cause the bewildered visitor to question his eyesight or sanity, until he confirms that they are in fact of different hue?
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: but do you know it is in fact a biological answer << after a certain amount of exposure, and getting weaker rather than stronger, one leans that - if there was an age where having one's legs pulled on, would have lengthened them - that age is past
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: but to answer question, my meatspace idiocy filter is simply not as strong as the conceptual one. to ask 'why' is like asking why my legs are not as long as mircea_popescu's
ascii_field: <mircea_popescu> and YET you protest the hyena << so i had a quiet and physically clean upbringing. this is who i am. i get that it gives me a short life expectancy, yes. but jumping from cliffs doesn't grow wings, no.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: flexible figure
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i srsly do not see ANY merit to this "location" bs << one of us is carrying suitcase of $gadgets to the other. that's -location-, l0l.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: it's the lack of cud chewing, not the hooves that makes pigs unkosher
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i am told that i did, but methinks it was a fraud
ascii_field: nubbins`: if i worked in a cubicle, the last thing i would do is buy a pogo and mess with it << what did you buy and play with instead? a nagant, testing how it feels in the mouth, as in mircea_popescu's 'dulap' story ?
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: i guess ascii_field has telecom reviving AND self-upping magical powers
pete_dushenski now wondering from whence mircea_popescu derives fiat profit in 5 jurisdictions to keep tax lawyers and accountants busy
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: definitely afterwards, don't have enough to say about it now
adlai: mircea_popescu: no, that's the goal-withholding attack!
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: aha. naturally
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: well there's some fiat aspect to your income that's reported, no ?
nubbins`: mircea_popescu join the club
nubbins`: mircea_popescu are you talking about working in an office? 8)
nubbins`: mircea_popescu agreed. i still work (from time to time), and it doesn't suck at all
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: it's all those sunrises that caused it !
adlai: mircea_popescu: actually a control-typo triggered it, and i decided to learn from the happy accident :)
nubbins`: mircea_popescu so do i, but i also like not wanting to fucking kill myself every day
nubbins`: mircea_popescu guess how much money i saved per year while making $61k
nubbins`: mircea_popescu same.
nubbins`: mircea_popescu i pay off about $5k principal and $9k interest per annum
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: perhaps i'm ascribing too much causation to correlations
nubbins`: mircea_popescu sure, agreed.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: how not ? how many pogo purchases and gnupg downloads have resulted from time spent here ?
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: this channel could be considered a forum
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: aha. more a property of the observer
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: by being persuasive ?
nubbins`: mircea_popescu aw shucks
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this is more like exhortation, to downed pilot in desert, 'throw out that stale water in your flask'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: implies a woman-generator that will produce replacement
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the exhortation to walk is the l0l here
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i wasn't expecting an answer. hence answer 'not enough lsd'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: his point, so far as i can surmise, is 'be theoretical physicist'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the long-term question is 'can i do something with it and continue to eat.' if fiat world turns sufficiently hostile, the answer, simply based on my pre-existing work here, may be a 'no.'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it was a philosophical question
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: because nubbins` has this incomplete thread with me, re: 'you too can learn to be me'
assbot: Logged on 10-04-2015 18:05:42; mircea_popescu: ascii_field so this would be in demand either a) by the nsa or else b) independent work a la s.nsa
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i haven't even envisioned solution to the problem of escaping the event horizon of the black hole resulting from the idiot's implosion
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'ju-jitsu' ?
asciilifeform: nubbins`: in mircea_popescu's world, as i understand, every soldier is naked but for his parachute, and ought to take what he needs from the locals
asciilifeform: adlai: mircea_popescu does not appear to be interested in defending anything (other than own house)
asciilifeform: adlai, mircea_popescu: 'patriotism' etc is a human plankton concept
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the fact is, not everyone has the biography, talents, and education of a self-funding deep-cover operative; and physical sovereignty has its uses. it would not take very many 'don dunphy'ings to make #b-a very empty other than for mircea_popescu..
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'm not entirely sold on this being so
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: whichever. let's say defeat germany3.
asciilifeform wonders what mircea_popescu would do if put in command of the red army. imagines that he would order it to disperse, with no more than one man per square km, and operate only as saboteur groups.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: meant something like a 'mircea_popescu as stalin' scenario
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ... looky here, I have no doubt i could probably pass some "new bitcoin country" real estate scam or other. i do not wish to. this, deliberately, and upon consideration, and against what random idiot may interpret as my patrimonial interest. << leads into the mega-question - what is the opposite of a real estate scam? or is this like the maxwellian hypothetical 'monopole magnet', where you have a mystery alien
nubbins`: mircea_popescu:he wasn't looking for any answer. he was trying to shoehorn disorganised remains of broken history into the future. as he keeps trying to do this he'll figure it out. <<< "you can't bribe the future with nostalgia"
nubbins`: mircea_popescu:i want to reconsider that about as much as windows user wants to compile from source. <<< i recall hearty lels when whatever chunk of windows source code came out
mats: 6:50:29 <+mircea_popescu> since mats brought it up : yeah, currently people can't audit bitbet's reserves. this is unfortunate, but i'm not going to do anything about it. << i was going a bit crazy auditing the code, thought id bungled it somehow
asciilifeform: so mircea_popescu's atomic dirigible has not very much room for friends
asciilifeform: reading the logs; reading sites such as mircea_popescu's; same as you and i did
asciilifeform: <mircea_popescu> ... i thought you didn't like perl. << i dislike many things. but ripping out the perl won't put me any closer to victory, so it is $maxint down on the list of things-to-do...
assbot: Logged on 13-04-2015 20:57:40; pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: any word back from fortune ?
ben_vulpes: <williamdunne> mircea_popescu: Do you not think it would be useful to be able to set a reminder without leaving your text editor? This is the sort of mundane task I was thinking of (certainly not enough to spark any sort of industry)
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: any word back from fortune ? ☟︎
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: they're as yet unknown to me
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: fetlife has told the wayback-machine to drop your blog post
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Do you not think it would be useful to be able to set a reminder without leaving your text editor? This is the sort of mundane task I was thinking of (certainly not enough to spark any sort of industry)
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Seems to me that being able to use voice commands could have limited usage for mundane tasks, so they can be performed without distraction from what you are actually trying to do
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: don't forget the basic formula here
assbot: Logged on 13-04-2015 17:14:08; jurov: mircea_popescu: ^ same here since yest
