that was entirely a different story. he was
trying
to organise his coding income
through a llc.

tactically
til

to have forgotten about mr stack and his programmatory llc ?

to keep
the fucktards out. so dun be a fucktard, you can
think,

that you may only
think about coding or something.

through,
the same way, everywhere.

their writings.

mircea_popescu: but if
the whorbassadors i ncongo agree
the age should be 18,
then hey, DEMOCRACY!!11
mircea_popescu: the fact
that most of
the world agrees girls can marry once
they can walk,
that doesn't count.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: " Most pro age-limit organizations agree
that 18 should be
the legal age for marriage." << check it out, voting works NOW.
mircea_popescu: "oh, doctoring is a privileged activity, if some people die
that's just not mentioned ; a functioning society is pointedly not a privileged activity, if anyone dies we'll put it in
the newspaper".
mircea_popescu: convenient enough
that
there's nobody in english speaking places reading
the yemenite newspapers about how "child dies at hands of doctor" or similar nonsense.
mircea_popescu: ""According
to
the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), between 2011 and 2020, more
than 140 million girls will become child brides. Furthermore, of
the 140 million girls who will marry before
the age of 18, 50 million will be under
the age of 15." << note how little
the agenda has
to do with
the purely fabricated news story.

trinque: I am already offended by
this site's loading screen
mircea_popescu: don't credit newspapers just because
they're newspapers when you know in your own field what a shitfest
they are ; don't expect
the laws etc are anythig but badly written, poorly maintained code full of holes. as reverse-engineerable as anything else.
mircea_popescu: the appearance of "costs" is what's known in poker as a
trap.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: yes you pay more for utilities, but not
THAT much more and in general actually less
than what
the
tax would have cost you, and you get
to deduce
the rent
too, and it never really ends.
mircea_popescu: i'm not about
to go all crazy here and suggest you actually hire an expert, you've not been buying bitcoin for long enough yet.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field you're a smart kid, do
the math. or better yet, have

the
twerps involved not

to go ?

the
tanning
punkman: unfortunately, I don't yet own a datacenter in
the Congo
trinque: the scientologists have
this figured out
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i did
think about
this, earlier; principal obstacle is
the provision of adequate cooling in my sorry hovel. but in
the absence of a better idea, will have
to resort
to
this
jurov: ANN: all funds are
there, it just got nonsensical answers from mpex
jurov: ANN: coinbr had
to be shut down and will likely stay for several days
till i fix
the mess.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: it'll be cheaper

the added advantage
that we put all
the eggs in your basket
mircea_popescu: how about you pick out a system, i buy it, and
then you run nsa from home.
ascii_field: state of maryland requires vendor
to offer 2y
ascii_field: mircea_popescu:
traditional lease in
this part of
the world, for human habitation, is 1y
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i
think you should apologize before making fool of self kthx.
BingoBoingo: Dulap probably needs a datacenter with dogs on
the floow
mircea_popescu: online webexperts assure me
that
this is a coincidence and also was published before by a scientist somewhere.
ascii_field: diametric informed me
that his bisp box has not experienced resets...
ascii_field: i would dare
to suggest
that
the subcontract should include a stipulation
that >1 unsanctioned reset per year ==
termination
mircea_popescu: yeah i dun see a problem paying 1-1.5 for
this. provided
the box is decent and
the dc unretarded, i'd
take it.
ascii_field: but
this is really for mircea_popescu
to decide, given as he supplied
this item as 'pro bono'
BingoBoingo: <pete_dushenski> not a ~real~ recession,
those don't happen in
the biggest bestest firstest americas <<
Testnet Americans
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i am ready
to move it. but can't
think of, yet, a good place
to move it ~to~
mircea_popescu: ascii_field well, sent note pointing out
that if it happens again
that's it for
that box. i'm not so convinced it'll do anything. consequently... prep
to move it, i guess. got any suggestions of location ?
ascii_field: i can't help but wonder if someone is getting a red star pinned on his uniform in moscow, for having planted
this bug
☟︎ punkman: "I work for Xerox and I had
to hear
this from outside sources like
this one. "
ascii_field: the xerox
thing is brain-meltingly hilarious
punkman: from
the comments: "Have
there been any lawsuits by companies against Xerox for damages caused by Xerox machines substituting characters in various financial reports or other
types of reports. I'm having difficulty getting people
to believe your report. "
punkman: "More and more known enterprises reach out ot me
these days, asking
theirselves if
they have a huge problem with
their scanned documents. Others are already certain
thay actually have a huge problem, some of
them in security critical contexts. All have in common
that
they understandably are afraid of publicity."
punkman: "Rick Dastin, Vice President at Xerox, is
the first one actually working at Xerox being able
to
tell me
that character substitutions actually can occur and Xerox knows (in contrast
to
their support).
They also
tell me
that
this is wanted."
punkman: "A reader
tells me
there is a small notice in his copier's admin panel about character substitution. On his device,
the “bug” can be avoided by setting compression from “normal”
to higher. As a consequence,
the issue must have been known by Xerox – so why was nobody
telling us?"
punkman: ascii_field: I remember reading about it in 2013, stumbled upon it
today. nothing inbetween
ascii_field: ^ from my reading,
this had a very real chance of destroying
the non-pgp contract as even a
theatrical production
