mircea_popescu: asciilifeform incidentally this is exactly the general formula i'd expect of nsa sponsored holes in rsa. p = a * x ^ b
mircea_popescu: ha!
mircea_popescu: did i mention scripts can do anything ?
mircea_popescu: aand to keep up with the historical lulz, in re http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-08#1787189 there's of course http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/woAj5/?raw=true ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-21#1788339 << i can't tell you how annoying it is that mpi starts with mp. ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu has seen some tourists over the arbitrary weekend and it's given me a right and proper crise de la foie.
mircea_popescu: you catch stupid by FOREGOING that sticking!
mircea_popescu: go talk to a girl and ping a blog, motherfuckers, jesus fucking christ on a cracker they LIED TO YOU, it's immoral NOT TO! you don't catch anything from sticking it into the wet sight unseen.
mircea_popescu: what i would REALLY like would be a pill whereby something spawned forth by cunt speaking english is NO LONGER this fundamentally idiotic moron who simply can not engage the world.
mircea_popescu: ave1 that all make sense ?
mircea_popescu: whole fucking point of even having computers is to not curate things by hand.
mircea_popescu: point in case -- you think you can curate by hand a list of friends, yet your "blogroll" is perpetually out of date ; i don't have one nor ever had one for this exact reason, i ain't handcurating jack.
mircea_popescu: i loathe to curate anything by hand.
mircea_popescu: which is why i've not done it to date.
mircea_popescu: the disadvantage, of course, is that you have to now police a private, hand-cobbled dns, because ips change.
mircea_popescu: now, if xmlrpc.php had a whitelist, something as simple as a htaccess deny from all allow from x, this whole idiocy would go away.
mircea_popescu: what "look and see if my idiocy works" ?!?! that's practically racism.
mircea_popescu: and they'll do it 1mn times per ip, no problem, they just set up the script, until the host kicks them off they literally don't care about anything.
mircea_popescu: as a result, trilema answers xmlrpc.php calls to the tune of ten a second every second, every day of every week of ever year. there's many many millions each month, no exception to date.
mircea_popescu: the disadvantage, and it is marked, is that there's an endless supply of "independent" and hallucinatorily "free" imbeciles, and EACH AND EVERY ONE will have to try foisting any idiotic little scheme from the annals of ancient schemes upon the entire world.
mircea_popescu: this advantage is however massively moderated by the sheer lunatic imbecility of english speakers, whereby i do not think it has happened yet that five people actually linked to an article on trilema without prior arrangement, such as their having a wot presence etc. there's one exception that comes to mind, some dood running a "dark underground" or w/e blog. this OVER TEN YEARS nigh on.
mircea_popescu: the advantage of the current system (anyone can ping, ips must match, not seen before sources go in mod queue) is that anyone can just ping, without prior arrangement.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-21#1788331 << whitelist-only pinging might well be an improvement on the current situation worth discussing. so on the basis of trilema experience : ☝︎
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's a scandal!
mircea_popescu: server load soem deisgnated victim's pages for a cost of one ~100 byte packet.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-21#1788328 << this is there because of the whole http://trilema.com/2014/o-hai-let-me-wanna-be/ ; the short story being that if you don't check whether the ip of the ping-announcer matches the ip of the supposed ping sender, you turn your wordpress installation into a DDoS amplifier whereby one can (and plenty DO, there's lists published on trilema periodically, can dig up if you wish) have your ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-21#1788325 << from what i understand they don't work on nfs because nfs is broken by design (alf tho thinks this is not a bug but a feature, something in the vein of "if you deliberately break the lock on your mailbox, you may miss out on some mail, it's true, but you can always claim in court you never got their papers" or such). ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: i fucking hope it's not catching, god help me if i end up learning dislexyas from the internets.
mircea_popescu: reading ave1 's comment on diana_coman 's blog i realise that besides the common t/d substitution rampant here, there's also an exotic substitution, p for b! ☟︎
mircea_popescu: talk about male-to-female transitioning, that's it right there.

mircea_popescu: mages/antifa.gif
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-21#1788322 << ah i forgot, these are the security pantsuit. http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/XXkvW/?raw=true (the best part, other than the lulzy failed jay-z appearance, is the "hard limit : bruises" worldview. mutha srsly thinks "i've never been punched" is a sustainable lifestyle for the "politically involved", and actively prefers to have never seen http://trilema.com/wp-content/themes/trilema/i ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-21#1788321 << yaya okok, he didn't do it and wasn't even there. ml is a terrifyingly horrible medium, as it turns out. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: this isn't a rational, reality-bound, economics-driven process, after all. pure hallucinatoria, just add verbiage.
mircea_popescu: they shouldn't "have been able to", and the more "insane" THE MORE SO, not the less so.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-21#1788314 << no but see, the way i understand it, the whole appeal of the entire usg.robocar concept is that it removes human agency wrt traffic oucomes. if this illusion is not sustainable "why bother" as per usg.logic. discussing the event in terms of characteristics of the victim, ESPECIALLY in that "suicide" direction, cements defeat in this logic. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: o also, did we do the "uber self-driving car kills woman crossing street" ?
mircea_popescu: (some douche at mit, minor chickening around scheme, utter fucktard in all possible respects, and very much in the mit flagship sense, too) ☟︎
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-20#1788301 << who the fuck is henry baker. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: in other lulz from the everfount, https://fetlife.com/users/8126611 ☟︎
mircea_popescu: not entirely surew what.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-20#1788295 << his does a strange "shadow" act periodically. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: apparently writing porny stories is expensive
mircea_popescu: in other sads, this month so far trilema burned more bw than in jan+feb combined.
mircea_popescu: aha.
mircea_popescu: well honestly i didn't expect they didn't LOOK at them
mircea_popescu: repackaged ?
mircea_popescu: aite then. snatch lulz from the jaws of sads or how was it.
mircea_popescu: i just meant, find out before reflashing.
mircea_popescu: is there some way to find out if they were diddled first ? if we're paying a coupla grand for usg to diddle our fgs, might as well get a blog post out of it.
mircea_popescu: which is exactly what i'm trying to avoid. but anyways.
mircea_popescu: as it stands i dun really know what's a concern
mircea_popescu: diana_coman plox ^ after items live
mircea_popescu: aite.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i figure now i'm gonna have to test these things again or what. what'd you say is nsa standard for fg tests minigame'd have to do for nsa to certify its fg installation as satisfactory ?
mircea_popescu: you lot against advertising or something ? what's the logic ?
mircea_popescu is absolutely nonplussed no pics have been forthcoming.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo so what's the situation there, it's like... a box, screw-on lid ?
mircea_popescu: what am i to say to these people ?!
mircea_popescu: i dunno, maybe it's not apparent, let's reiterate. minigame is a multi-million dollar corp, trusted by people with multi-million dollars worth of virtual equipment. you understand me ? when it says 8k btc equity that means more money than dimon got.
mircea_popescu: so what the fuck am i going to do now ?
mircea_popescu: i mean i get it, you had a pile of lose fgs. but you didn't even box up the one box you had pretty much pre-sold ? why not ?
mircea_popescu: why ?
mircea_popescu: talk about degradation wtf.
mircea_popescu: so instead of buying the originally discussed sealed box http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-05#1786922 and all that, what i get is ad-hoc aglomeration of parts. some of which were even out of custody for a weekend ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: oh for crying out loud.
mircea_popescu: what do you mean none connected ?
mircea_popescu: diana_coman you recall, feb discussion. http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-24#1785926 / http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-26#1786309 ☝︎☝︎
mircea_popescu: that sounds like a well made client...
mircea_popescu: ad-hoc low effort gui-ing is no match for the almighty |
mircea_popescu: there really should be no printing as such in anywhere.
mircea_popescu: largely in the "Gray Eaglecoin," the "BitColumbiana," the "Branch Mintcoin," the "BitMaria Janecoin," the "Coinverse," the "Root-Hog-or- Die Coin," the "Samson Coins Delilah," the "BiTreasure BiTrove," the "Golcoinda," the "Co InSultana," the "Buttmerang," the "Great Republicoin," the "Grand Mogulbit," andfifty other "chains" that had never been molested by a developer or scratched with peer review"
mircea_popescu: aaand in today;s random trilemalulz, "Meantime the camp was filling up with people, and there was a constantly growing excitement about our Humboldt altcoin. We fell victims to the epidemic and strained every nerve to acquire more "coins." We prospected and took up new chains, put "notices" on them and gave them grandiloquent names. We traded some of our "coins" for "coins" in other people's chains. In a little while we owned
mircea_popescu: everywhere else, women undress to wash the car. but here...
mircea_popescu: and in other overheards, "may i dress for car washing ?"
mircea_popescu: if anyone wants it that still hasn't got it.
mircea_popescu: so i'm doing a little bit of maintenance, and will be deleting http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/lenat-leaks/ later today
mircea_popescu: first!
mircea_popescu: it's called INFRAstructure, right ? it's SUPPOSED to go down.
mircea_popescu: !~calc (193082 + 193976) / 395838
mircea_popescu: i'm giving up on the notion publishing that is useful.
mircea_popescu: so i idly ran diff on the double indemnity source as compared to what i published. the original is 193082 bytes. my version is 193976 bytes. the diff file is 395838 bytes.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo but i suppose it'd be fair to say the new generation of fucktards simply revolutionized bridges.
mircea_popescu: pantsuit can engineer too! building socialism of future works!!! etcetera
mircea_popescu: ENGINEERING FEAT CAME TO LIFE!
mircea_popescu: some actuarial data can't hurt. us most dangerous place to cross a bridge by far, both overal and per capial.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i-35 2007 collapse, btw, recall that ? whole lanes of zeks going to meet the river.
mircea_popescu: first time us snatches defeat from the jaws of victory, passes india for bridgedown count!
mircea_popescu: pvc pipe doesn't burn hot enough to melt steel reinforcing concrete, you remember.
mircea_popescu: last time one of these went down, minitruth found some bums to blame if memory serves ?
mircea_popescu: don't you judge her!
mircea_popescu: "Florida Bridge Woke"
mircea_popescu: this one moved up/down. cowgirl bridge!
mircea_popescu: yes, but those move horizontally, symbolizing patriarchy.
mircea_popescu: stationary bridges are racist because they priviledge station over movements that are much more important to us.
mircea_popescu: well, mechanical means it moves, right ?
mircea_popescu: women can mechanical engineer bridge too!
mircea_popescu: "questions swirl over FIRM that built", sez google. i'm sure, it's the bad implementation of socialism that's to blame.
mircea_popescu: i see you know how this goes.
