ascii_field: 'Steve Jobs played no role at all in any of my designs of the Apple I and Apple II computer and printer interfaces and serial interfaces and floppy disks and stuff that I made to enhance the computers. He did not know technology. He’d never designed anything as a hardware engineer, and he didn’t know software. He wanted to be important, and the important people are always the business people. So that’s wh
ascii_field: as for turning those cops loose, it is part of http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=02-09-2015#1259456 campaign. ☝︎

pete_dushenski: ascii_field: i can travel to china just as well, but dc is marginally more convenient. for now.
ascii_field: pete_dushenski: highly recommended. so long as you stay out of the 'modern art' claptrap pits, you will see 'america as it once was'
pete_dushenski: ascii_field: as to esr's 100k, to quote "Yes, we do have some savings and stock. No, I don’t want to tap them, because thank you I do not want to be on the dole or dead of starvation and exposure when I’m really old. "
ascii_field: or the first patent troll who comes along will eat you for lunch. or ceo busted for 'irregularities' of which every man on u.s. soil who ever so much as smelled a seven-figure sum is guilty as all hell; etc
assbot: Logged on 07-09-2015 00:32:12; mircea_popescu: <shinohai> What kind of poppycock is that? Won't hire me if I have been negative online. << it's not hiring as much as living wage layer two. do you want to be like the niggers, getting free pills and welfare checks ? that's living wage layer zero. move to the ghetto. are you instead happy with the minimum wage, tax rebates, etc bullshit ? that's layer one, move to suburbia.
trinque: ;;later tell funkenstein_ feed it your pubkey as ascii-armor first
pete_dushenski: sometimes there are patterns, sometimes mere coincidence and the actual reporting of otherwise hush-hush events make it appear as if there are patterns
thestringpuller: yea that's the one. thing is huge as fuck.
pete_dushenski: this was true as far back as voisin and citroen. google andre lefebvre sometime. guy was a crossover genius.

shinohai: Ah! Very good post, and true. Yet no one sees this as consequence.
pete_dushenski: shinohai: unhackable winbloze is as much of a joke as ^
shinohai: I must obtain a copy of this unhackable windows, otherwise it is as mythical as North Korean unicorns to me.
fluffypony: I reported it as a hardware error 4 times, they kept telling me it can't be, it must be my configuration
funkenstein_: as to whether the defenseless, or any item at all, has value- see open market for that
pete_dushenski: "Billiards Suite • $4,000/night • sleeps 2 • Our most booked suite! This suite includes exclusive use of the billiards room for 8 hours, plus an adjoining hotel room. This is the most asked for suite in The Mansion for events, as you can sleep (if you choose) or play billiards on a $150,000 classic billiards table." << via o mansion's absurdly bad www
mircea_popescu: buy cats, force them to dress as bitches, fuck them ?
asciilifeform: 'Jack Whittaker won $315 million and ten years later, his daughter and granddaughter had both died of drug overdoses, his wife divorced him, and once while in a strip club, he was drugged and robbed of $545,000 in cash, as reported by The New York Times.' << thinking folk don't play lotteries.

trinque: deeply, and as a matter of principle
asciilifeform: given as 'they work for...'
trinque: I see oil and a few other things as the few remaining inputs on the US "economy
asciilifeform: trinque: as for your oil men, it is a basic truism of salary men in usa that no one is ever, under any circumstances, paid a salary large enough to stop being a salary man.
asciilifeform: trinque: as for taqiya, it worked pre-google.
asciilifeform: 80 may as well be 800 or 800,000,000 from my pov.

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-09-2015#1264271 << checking TAKES AS LONG AS RECALCULATING ☝︎
mircea_popescu: hiring in the traditional sense has no bearing on all this. it's "hiring", as in, usg "hires" you to lap up the welfare faucet drippings.
mircea_popescu: <shinohai> What kind of poppycock is that? Won't hire me if I have been negative online. << it's not hiring as much as living wage layer two. do you want to be like the niggers, getting free pills and welfare checks ? that's living wage layer zero. move to the ghetto. are you instead happy with the minimum wage, tax rebates, etc bullshit ? that's layer one, move to suburbia. ☟︎☟︎

assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 18:25:54; ben_vulpes: and just as certainly leave you complaining that things never get done unless you do them yourself.
trinque: that'd work once I'm in Houston, as I'm moving my blockchains all onto my own network once there
ag3nt_zer0: mircea_popescu: what do you mean by this? "he can "win" 315 mn, but he sure as fuck may not turn that into 1mn turkeys."
mircea_popescu: the notion that you'd take as much as 500 bucks to a us strip club...
mircea_popescu: he can "win" 315 mn, but he sure as fuck may not turn that into 1mn turkeys.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-09-2015#1264067 << it occurs to me that if we're going to do this, we might as well do it on assbot otc. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-09-2015#1264041 << it's open source right ? that means people can come later and fix it so it works as it should, right ? ☝︎
anton_osika: And again, my physical embodiment is openly registered, if you are in the neighbourhood mircea_popescu. And I might not be as dumb as it seems from the backup policies ..
mircea_popescu: field1, field2 and who the fuck was responsible with raping these idiots as 5yo and discarding the bloodied remains in a ditch did a horrible job
anton_osika: My situation as of now is that there is nothing to strictly verify a former fingerprint. However I am the unique holder of the name AntonOsika in Sweden, publicly registered with physical address, so you if you are passing by please find me and I would provide generous housing.
anton_osika: mircea_popescu: I liked your piece on formalised identity based trust system (WoT). Are there any attempts at extending it to our physical existances such as property?
anton_osika: Hello guys, I am having issues with phunctor as you might have guessed.
mircea_popescu: this means you can not use symbols such as "contradiction" without havind properly defined an existentialism.contradiction constructor in the very group.
andychase: I'd like to take that kind of system and move it up so a community like this one can make their opinion validated as part of the process for improving bitcoin
asciilifeform: direct inquiries as to ~where~ to stow'em, to mircea_popescu et al.
BingoBoingo: mats: Do the several BIP 66 forks all count as one, or do we have to go back and count them all
ben_vulpes: and just as certainly leave you complaining that things never get done unless you do them yourself. ☟︎
asciilifeform: because i sure as fuck don't ~need~ 'support'
assbot: Logged on 03-09-2015 02:08:18; mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> the other interesting thing is that the market is segmented in such a way that anyone who doesn't want mcfood ends up paying for ~all~ the alt-crackpotteries, not merely the logical ones << this is a very valid point, and the one spot where alf's ideas re meta-lizzards sound most persuasive. i do not believe the market is gerrymandered as it is by accident.
asciilifeform: punkman: correct. the thing has no concept of orphaned chains as of yet.
ben_vulpes: but looky here. you've written a thing that more-or-less must be tested as a whole, and i'm trying to push for testing the bits.
asciilifeform: ergo all invocations of my 'v' took the patchdir arg as first arg.
ben_vulpes: i /abhor/ functions that take the whole environment as their input arguments.
asciilifeform: it is only 'spaghetti' if there are localisms in the global state. as it was, all of it was relevant to the whole proggy.
asciilifeform: ;;later tell ben_vulpes what were you trying to do ?! 'o' takes a ~tree file's hash~ as argument, and tells you ~which patch~ produced it. looks like you were giving it a patch's hash ??
mircea_popescu: the gentlemen investors as well as the armchair financiers may find the 2nd part of ^ interesting
funkenstein_: "never seen in all my days what so rejoiced my heart, as these things. For I saw among them amazing artistic objects, and I marveled over the subtle ingenuity of the men in these distant lands. Indeed, I cannot say enough about the things that were brought before me"
asciilifeform: it means that when something does not work as expected, you can immediately rule out 'unknown knob'
mircea_popescu: "they had cars at the time this fuckwit was living in the dirt. do you understand ? some african monkey thinking they unveiled the sikrits of the universe AT THE SAME TIME as people doing the cern cyclotron is necessarily and by that very fact an idiot.
asciilifeform: incidentally, i notice that aficionados of crying for the indians for some odd reason cry preferentially for the ones clobbered earlier and more thoroughly, leaving not so much as a wet spot (e.g., arawak) vs the later ones who learned horse and rifle and gave white man a run for his money
mircea_popescu: in point of fact as the white man put pressure on the indians, they started crossing boundries in desperate search of food. this was very successful at preventing organised resistance - idiots too busy fighting each other.
assbot: Logged on 31-01-2015 01:09:34; asciilifeform: 'Every nationalist is haunted by the belief that the past can be altered. He spends part of his time in a fantasy world in which things happen as they should — in which, for example, the Spanish Armada was a success or the Russian Revolution was crushed in 1918 — and he will transfer fragments of this world to the history books whenever possible. Much of the propagandist writing of our time amounts to
funkenstein_: as was modern detroit, look now
funkenstein_: yes, knowing a useful skill and performing it is enjoyable, sometimes referred to as satori 24
funkenstein_: And for the record, your participation in an open dialog here, more in the tradition of the indian men of knowledge than the authoritarian oxbridge academics, does not make me think of you as monkeys
ben_vulpes: as a pedagogical exercise, why?
jurov: but noone else is so crazy as to be doing this
mircea_popescu: this is the reason early us was so great : it correctly identified the natives as the scum that they are, by virtue of being people, and massacred them wholesale.
mircea_popescu: a sterner indictment of humanity as a species could scarcely be devised.
asciilifeform: prolly because your squirrelmail install treats the attachments as mime/txt or whatnot and decides 'eligible for genitalmutilation!!'
punkman: entire file as changed must be newlines
mircea_popescu: (returns entire identical file as "changed")
mircea_popescu: will choose to interpret it as... 1275.
mircea_popescu: in today's lulz : it turns out that bitcoin-qt interface, if presented with a malformed value such as 1,275 btc instead of the 1.275 notation, ☟︎
asciilifeform: inside tar, payload & sigs as before.
asciilifeform does not regard boxes he doesn't personally keep behind a locked door with cameras etc. as cryptoworthy
mircea_popescu: but works on the files as they are.
mircea_popescu: and, much like insane notions of agency as defined legally ("guy spreading his legs is DOING something ; gal eating herself into a bus size is not specifically doing anything"), the quantitative approach favours female dumb.
pete_dushenski: as supported by today's discovery that it's damn-near impossible to find out what 'technologies' and 'features' a pampers diaper has : http://www.pampers.com/en-us
assbot: Logged on 05-09-2015 00:45:55; mircea_popescu: <kakobrekla> >We are migrating the website to a new and improved and more dynamic site. Please excuse any broken links or choppy pages as we work! <<< one wonders wtf the progre thinks progress actually is. "new improved more dynamic" = "broken". so whydja want it ?
mircea_popescu: about as unenforceable in a sane justice system as "employee agrees not to sue employer for any reason" employment contracts in california, but hey.

kakobrekla: >We are migrating the website to a new and improved and more dynamic site. Please excuse any broken links or choppy pages as we work!
mircea_popescu: i have nfi. all i know atm is this does not in fact work as is
trinque: as far as I recall that's right
mircea_popescu: to doubleckeck here : email to the address, had a plaintext as 1st attachment and detached sig as 2nd attachment/
shinohai: I'm quite sad for you trinque because a similar situation occurred to me. Losing an instrument to someone that loves music as I do is akin to losing a limb.
