mircea_popescu: iirc it was more a case of "hey, i'm here to promote ; oh you're not really an audience ? ok, ima go promote down the street"
asciilifeform falls down.
mircea_popescu: country's basically the equivalent of shannen doherty. was hot briefly in its youth, by now it's a great way to pour money down the drain.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform exactly why i don't argue for "make america great again" but "burn it all down"
Joshua-I: You can just as easily bust down a door
pete_dushenski: after 2012, it's just write down the highest number our impoverished bureaucrats can count to and go with that.
mircea_popescu: the bronco-country comparison breaks down
asciilifeform: strangely, the jews massively and collectively turned down uruguay and argentina during ww2
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform anyway, the summa of the thing being that they (stupidly) decided to give the feds ten mile square ; the northerners wanted it in a big city, the slave interest down south. eventuyally hamilton managed to trade the south undertaking a share of the northern foreign debt in exchange for putting the capital down by virgina.
mircea_popescu: you know, that'd be pretty lulzy if that's how it went down.
mircea_popescu: fact is... you're now fucked. it's not trivial to explain to restaurant manager why abstract 4 dimensional figures can not be built down the street.
asciilifeform: i specifically wanted a new site, independent of old and producing no down time when tweaked
mod6: asciilifeform: calm down.
asciilifeform: phf: l0gz down again ??
pete_dushenski: damndest thing : i was actually whistling the star spangled banner to myself while making my 3-egger breakfast omelette, quite out of the blue, and only several hours later recalled that it was colonial 'victory' day down south
mircea_popescu: the house burned down ?!
mircea_popescu: your triple crown purebreed stomped it down
asciilifeform: like that old man who rolled electric wheelchair up, down, up, down, the street, swinging his hat
mircea_popescu: it's "going down" in the hopes of capturing the occasional dizzy derp. not going too well.
shinohai: Sounds good to me, is that tar.gz mentioned in link still available? I will pull it down when I get back from town this afternoon.
mircea_popescu: shut up gentoo boy! unlike that pos, this actually works for a decade once settled down. and the settling down is a few hours not a few weeks.
mircea_popescu: eh it's not wasted, simmer down. we fix it okay ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform hey, depends. sometime "tear the whole shit down" is cheaper than fix. besides, if i'm going to pour concrete in my kitchen, i'd much rather pour the whole floor plane.
asciilifeform: poor schmuck burns down, another will come in his place.
mircea_popescu: yes, and it makes me want to put the drink down and leave.
BingoBoingo: does that drain convey water down? if yes the expensive part of your one sink is done!
asciilifeform: old white bloke on electric wheelchair going up, down, up, down, the street, all day long

thestringpuller: asciilifeform: i'm guessing zoolag is down? ☟︎
asciilifeform: to mow them zulus down.
asciilifeform: it dun need mobility. plants down, then opens fire from turret.
asciilifeform falls down
mircea_popescu: meanwhile, considerations of "abstract thinkers" who are really metaphysicians, such as "will people be able to breathe ???" are not to be considered. if they are they live if they are not they die. nobody cares. whether leika comes back down or not is not a point of consideration in the soviet space programme.
asciilifeform bbl, will soon fall down
asciilifeform: y'know, my toilet doesn't log, but if flush a blended corpse down it, it is not so difficult to prove later, where it went.
asciilifeform: anywhere else, it readily breaks down into barf
asciilifeform: it isn't as if the random rubytardation was connected to a reactor that will melt down now.
a111: Logged on 2016-06-29 15:48 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform empty and full of rubble does wonders to keep hopes down (and hope, expectation of future, TRULY is the mind eater for usians. be hopeless, you win.) and officious intermeddlers at a distance sufficient to breed actual people with some frequency.
trinque: yes, but at least he'll have a new hoverboard with fans that never spin down
thestringpuller: phf: ah. stackoverflow development. That's a good phrase. devs tend to be lazy, so when something breaks and stackoverflow has a solution they put they put a bandaid over wounds that require stitches and eventually someone sane has to sit down and deturdify the mess.
trinque: k lemme copy teh data down to dev box
mircea_popescu: ("if money's a curse, let god strike me down with it! and may i never recover.")

shinohai: https://github.com/ethcore/parity/pull/1483/files The dao is still down -12.19 %. Here's a provisional hard fork to make it all better.
asciilifeform: that wouldn't create chorus of 'all these 5,000 nominally distinct nodes down for 20 minutes'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform equations, chemical formulas, everything you can note down.
a111: Logged on 2016-06-27 20:29 asciilifeform: from phf's link, commentz: '...it's nice that run down neighborhoods get a face lift, and I love craft beer and good food and coffee as much as the next guy (er, gal)-but what happened to the factories and the people that used to work in them?

phf: out 5 years ago. now i can't go there without getting the anger shakes, it's a fucking millenial central. i got into a fight at johnny brenda's (mentioned in the article) a year ago, and everybody backed down, which made me even madder. fuck that place
mircea_popescu: theoretically the millions upon millions of pointless white kids that tear down the universities each year and the nation's finances would utterly dilute the hood into meaninglessness.
phf: one guy (support) got it in his head that he's going to open a london branch of the company, he regularly arranges meetings with random uk business representatives to discuss along these lines. i heard he had some kind of meeting with richard branson as part of a small select group, etc. etc. mind you this has long been shot down by the owners as utterly insane and shut the fuck up. doesn't deter him.
mircea_popescu: you know the hipster chick that went down the ghetto road by her lonesome in nothing but six inch heels one fine late summer evening ?
hanbot: so you know, someone who needs to know this stuff for their job fails, which means someone further down the line idem, no wonder no sense comes out of anything touching the atrocity.
mircea_popescu: errors travel back down and grind down not your results, but ~your capacity for having any results~.
mircea_popescu: i understand there's this anglosaxon tradition of "pronouncing a man's name like he himself does" come out of the bizarre happenstance that all of england decided to drop historical pronounciation and follow the airs of random whore history has forgot to mention just about the time they realised it'd be a good idea to mark down how the language works.
mircea_popescu: anyway, ima go visit the favela sluts for no reason other than taking asciilifeform 's pictures, honest, i swear. ima bbl, coupla hours ; hold any online hos down and occupied till i return!
mircea_popescu: i was too preoccupied otherwise to take pictures of street - with channel down middle, like 1600 spain!
asciilifeform: sanitation dun scale down to 'boutique economy'.
mircea_popescu: most of them got shut down within 16 hours or somesuch.
mircea_popescu: so make it linkable to so it can go down every week and we can bitch at you also.
asciilifeform: anyway i am falling down from the sheer l0ltr0n1c force of mr mold's defense of eth
thestringpuller: isn't ironic people say shit like this, but then luke-jr joins the channel to get "support for hardfork". then immediately after being shut down is like "okay guys. they still hate us power rangers. I don't think we should talk about hard forks any time soon, cause it ain't happening"
thestringpuller: just silently down
thestringpuller: oh logs are down
mircea_popescu: sit the fuck down, nobody's shocked and moreover nobody cares about the "mainstream" / powers that wanna-be blabla.
asciilifeform: (or possibly just the latter is down)
mircea_popescu: he actually said he's stepping down meanwhile yea
Framedragger: i wonder. in times of uncertainty, investors move money elsewhere. say eu continues to crumble down, with states threatening to leave / leaving, euro going down. could gbp be eventually seen as a "foreign stable thing" in europe? my bets are that it won't; but it'd be a curious outcome
Framedragger: it really is all about the germans now and what they do, i suppose, yeah. i wouldn't think that taxing london is *that* important though, and in any regard uk trading with eu is more important to uk than to eu, it would appear. but sure, shit's gonna go down, will be interesting to follow.
asciilifeform falls down
asciilifeform: hi phf . log down??
asciilifeform: mats: this is probably in the logs, but the log is down
trinque: https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/bitfinex/btcusd << ahahah is bitfinex down again?
asciilifeform: ;;later tell phf log is down ?
asciilifeform: 'easy going' like shit floating down a river.
mircea_popescu: but to the more general point, Framedragger : the master's job is mostly to encourage and support the young woman TO ACTUALLY MAKE CHOICES. which is to say, exactly to distance herself from learned helplessness of the nature of diana_coman 's above mentioned " don't change anything or it might all fall down"
diana_coman: that thing when it *works* as in...now, this particular thing, don't change anything or it might all fall down
Framedragger: (what's nice with these paraconsistent systems is that they may not crumble down when encountering some or other kind of logical paradox.) </weird-rant>
asciilifeform: or how about a lift that maybe-goes down or maybe-up
asciilifeform: however an auto-deedbotronic 'zoolag is up/down' might be useful.
mircea_popescu: no, it's just that if you write down the historical trade losses of usg agents to date, etherape figures way towards the top. this is more than, say, gaddafi ever managed.
diana_coman: I take the carpet away to discover that they had put it on top of all the bits and pieces of walls and whatnot they had gotten down to change the window frames
mircea_popescu: anyone recalls the case of the famous mr nick leeson, the man who put an end to barings bank after two centuries of successful operation through the exact same process ? doubling down on being on the wrong side of the market and then earthquake striking japan ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: fanfic all the way down at the bankrupter
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-06-22#1486649 << eh, script kiddies been "attacking" it all day. whatevs, not like there's anything that important there it won't take being down the occasional half hour. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2016-06-21 20:56 thestringpuller: its usually to cut down on spam, as I won't respond to recruiter inquiries unless they show up on IRC
mircea_popescu: just don't send it back out, the whole thirty bitcoin churning around bullshit will die down soon enough.
mircea_popescu: shinohai i linked a pretty good piece yest, it's not JUST slock.it that are derps, the whole stack's rotten all the way down.

asciilifeform falls down
Bugpowder: Wind blowing it up mountains not down tho so OK for now…
mircea_popescu: maybe he could be kim jong up from now on. and he could have a son and name him kim dong down
mircea_popescu: I myself used a Hole Hawg to drill many holes through studs, which it did as a blender chops cabbage. I also used it to cut a few six-inch-diameter holes through an old lath-and-plaster ceiling. I chucked in a new hole saw, went up to the second story, reached down between the newly installed floor joists, and began to cut through the first-floor ceiling below. Where my homeowner's drill had labored and whined to spin the hu
asciilifeform: if you buy 'down pillow' in modern usa you get bag of shit.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-06-20#1485428 << very unalien. puf in romanian, down in english ☝︎

asciilifeform: you can buy 'down' but it is not same thing.
BingoBoingo: phf: The push down ratcheting screwdrivers by yankee/stanley are pretty cool, but also discontinued since forever ago.
Framedragger: a yea it's dns related, not just "down". curious
