that
this figure is a few yrs old, and a substantial number of
the chumps are likely
to have succumbed
to old age since it was last published)
cazalla:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=07-10-2015#1293321 <<< i use
to work for main
telco doing cust service.. not uncommon
to find little old lady with 2 or 3 rotary phone rentals attached
to account for years on end.. sometimes little old ladies had wireless, cable and dsl connections because some indian fuck sold her on
the idea so he could get
the commission
☝︎ mircea_popescu: and in general,
two
types of problems. 1. "build me a bridge" ; 2. "find me
the leak". 1 is blocking, but 2 isn't - if a baby goat finds
the leak
the leak's just as found as if jesus had found it.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: phf: Pls
take it. I've been waiting
to fuck something of
this sort on my 0.7-ish
tree.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: phf
this is a non-competence blocking issue. it doesn't matter how competent or credentialed you are,code in question will be reviewed anyway.
phf: responsible for
the issue.
phf: asciilifeform: now all i need is for somebody
to
take mapTransactions / CTransaction from me... << i started investigating
the issue a while ago, but dropped it since wasn't sure if it was
the highest priority. i've been
traveling, but i'll get back
to it. i don't see any reason it can't be resolved. i'm not claiming
territory, but unless someone more compotent decides
to
take over you can consider me
mircea_popescu: Information publicly disclosed on
the Scottrade breech << lulzy, but breach.
mike_c: and yes, i could put a cache buster on
that.. i'll put it on
the
todo
mike_c: ;;later
tell pete_dushenski
the graph is likely just cached in your browser. press f5.
mircea_popescu: "While
the press support and relationships established can benefit your game, a lot of companies have “won” E3 and vanished shortly
thereafter."
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Appears
to credibly be
that man
to
the point it can be verified without strong signatures
danielpbarron: if eulora's
to have minigames like
TD, I recommend Dota
danielpbarron: warcraft3 had a neat variation, "island defence," in which
there is one monster and he is controlled by a human player, and joined by defeated defenders
danielpbarron: that steampunk
thing doesn't look like what I have played.
To me, "tower defence" means building a maze of
turrets
to control
the flow of progressively beefier monsters,
the goal being
to kill
them all before
the get
through
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> anyway, i'm kinda
trying
to de-walrus self, by pawning chore onto other fellas << Qntra struggles with
this if any lurkers want a chance
to get work done in #b-a wotlandia
danielpbarron: mircea_popescu, what
tower defense did you play? I know of it from starcraft
pete_dushenski: tuesday night :
time
to go sing my little heart out. cheers !
mircea_popescu: i also want soul hunter
thing as a minigame, and a genetics
thing, and a few others.
the minigame portion of eulora is gonna be pretty spiffy, really. huge gameplay
thing, but i don't really see it happening before 2017..
assbot: Logged on 07-10-2015 00:35:19; mircea_popescu: nah, it's a minigame see. something like, you build
the case for it, place it in
the world,
then people use it like a sort of arcade.
mircea_popescu: hehe. cool, but i also want
total walrus factor
to go down!
mircea_popescu: you know, when
the best looking guy ends up with all
the women.
mircea_popescu: yes, he's competent.
there is however such a
thing as competence choking.
mircea_popescu: nah, it's a minigame see. something like, you build
the case for it, place it in
the world,
then people use it like a sort of arcade.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> in fact, i intend
to have a
td minigame added as an eulora activity eventually. << Before or after Lich's are implemented as a
thing
to become
BingoBoingo will
try
to bring better, actual camera next
time. Smaller Dog's name is Beans.
The larger dog is Frank. Both have short legs.

assbot: Logged on 06-10-2015 23:59:24; cazalla: pete_dushenski,

the
tail end of its lifetime
assbot: Logged on 06-10-2015 23:57:38; asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: i still
think
there are
thinking folks hidden deep in b-a. ~somebody~ is buying
that cnc machinery.
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo dog's as fluffy as
the rug.

BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: imgur.com/sG5TJMb << New one is one
the left, smaller dog 14 weeks of age
mircea_popescu: it's "colonies where
the indigents weren't massacred". mexico, egypt, you name it.
mircea_popescu: only difference is
the egyptian chicks fuck more intensively while
the argentines look better. but...\
mircea_popescu: cairo, 50% of population, ba 50% of population. nonsensical govt, nonsensical govt ; very mentally stunted population
that excels at menial, labour intensive
tasks ; overblown palace bureaucracy,
the entire works.
mircea_popescu: it's actually remarkably close
to where egypt was, pre us/saudi split and
the entire nonsense since 2000s.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform do i need
to link you
to
the article delineating fucking organizers bought on
time ?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Not rental, as of earlier
this year loan, just like for car
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo in usistan, home of
the brave leasees, only

that are intended
to be phone controlled.
