mircea_popescu: but why can't you just have a tolkienring class, in c, that spits out proper data ?
mircea_popescu: im not sure i understand the problem. explain this to me, why can't i talk to c world on my terms ?
mircea_popescu: just because you saw injun with baseball bat dun mean injuns play baseball.
mircea_popescu: i thought that kitty item is a bot at first, which is why i said hi. it's a woman.
mircea_popescu: jesus that was a spelunking exercise, finding that log.
mircea_popescu: "the log" being today 70 lines or 2k words. i don't think this ever happeend before in teh history of irc.
mircea_popescu: ave1 is your dancing around the entropy problem with files etc driven by the fact you don't have a fg, incidentally ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: and that "good enough"... anyone reading through teh discussion of gpg in eucrypt comments, or in channel for that matter can readily grok just how fucking uselessly broken gpg is. yet "good enough" for everyone else.
mircea_popescu: we will evidently have a ffa-based, canonical gpg replacement. EVENTUALLY. until such an eventually, i don't feel so great recommending anyone gpg (or, heavens help us,
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1774477 -- just as i had to do, and recently). so a drop-in, eucrypt-based, "good enough" item is more than useful.
☝︎ mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-08#1787224 << i don't expect eucrypt will ever move to ffa. this is in no sense a disidence, or any negative comment on ffa whatsoever. they are intended and designed as very different usecase solutions -- note the speed differential incumbent. eucrypt works as a "good enough" item, it principally intends to support a game, and same-level crypto needs. it's consequently to be light, fast, and ~r
☝︎ mircea_popescu: (this team-up disparity, incidentally, can readily be explained in republican terms ; it all revolves around
http://trilema.com/2017/the-practical-costs-of-hallucinated-freedom/ -- specifically, thinking people need a much larger sunken cost to evaluate their choices and come to the correct conclusion they got none. this is a lot more evident to idiots. as this disparity flows from the definitions of terms...)
☟︎ mircea_popescu: sadly the idiots team up faster and easier than thinking people do, so instead of linux driving nvidia out of business, the vice-versa occured.
mircea_popescu: whole fucking IDEA of a kernel was exactly this, "fuck you $vendor, if you need a whole programming language to init your pos peripheral YOU support it ; we'll just grin from the sidelines while the marketplace drives your inanity out of itself".
mircea_popescu: but just like we don't do the esthlos "o hai guise, i contribute half hour every third week between my radiomodelling hour and my watching cheerleader sports in the den" github dev model, we also don't do the "we'll underwrite your complexity under our brand" torvalds approach.
mircea_popescu: it is not an idle comment to observe that the universalist nature of pantsuitism manifests here exactly as everywhere -- their sad, broken cargocultish tech-ersatz does exactly what their sad, broken fake of an economy etc : rolls up the small costs into a larger one to be paid "in the future", which to them is a term of art specifically meaning never.
mircea_popescu: this a) would be actually simpler, in engineering terms, than the other possible approach your mind immediately ran to (simple, here, is a term of art -- it includes all costs, maintenance, readability, etc) ; and b) it keeps complexity where complexity belongs, which is to say upon the shoulders of the thing that wanted it in the first place.
mircea_popescu: the "online ads" thing is so fucking dead, alphabet continuing to claim that as income is much more scandalous fraud than anything gaddafi ever did.
mircea_popescu: but this paradigm where "we will cater to the peniless but opinionated female herd, instead of the rich and actually powerful white male" fucked them over.
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: this entire exercise in idiocy has, practically speaking, resulted in me paying various hard working ticos a grand or so, to the people fucking in the ass the "security" paradigm of pantsuit.fetlife. IN LIEU of having paid that much, and rather more, to the fetlife itself.
☟︎☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: which is not a big deal at all, considering most any shop will sell you preactivated ones nqa anyway.
mircea_popescu: sooo... big deal, 1 sent girl to buy a bagful of phone numbers. they cost, no joke, $2.5 here. EXCEPT, of course, they want your "cedula", you know, "por activacion".
☟︎ mircea_popescu: so big deal, right, i have more c blocks than baku had girlfriends. except, wait for it... new accounts require SMS verification! everything must be facebook!
mircea_popescu: in other lulz of the ongoing fetlife saga, they've MASSIVELY rate limited profile views. check out ~100 people in an hour or so, get timed out.
mircea_popescu: * renard_abroad (~mrfox@r201-217-148-155.ir-static.anteldata.net.uy) << check him out. how's teh uruguashos bunnies, mr fox ?
mircea_popescu: where were you while these doods were turning their life around, flying to uruguay and etcetera anyway ?
mircea_popescu: now less excuses, none of this "my pantsuit existence comes before the republic" ever again and more productivity. MUCH more productivity.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i'm certainly not puting the "this is how it is" imprimatur on some training mock-up of v implemented by some new kid. and in general enough with this burning of steps in a hollow quest for equality, you're not phf, and there is ONLY ONE WAY to become phf.
mircea_popescu: esthlos i don't get it, you're going to take a stab "at it" ie making a textfile, the sort that only carries any sort of weight or importance if a) you're somebody and b) you're doing something important, in between whenever your fiat job permits you a few hours here and there ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu ended up laughing ass off at trinque refuelling station once more.
mircea_popescu: srsly nobody cares what random trained monkey has to say.
mircea_popescu: eh, i just want performance. they've got this thing now, where they're so desperate for cheap footage, they'll actually dress up athletes like they were people, seat them down in studios and make them talk.
mircea_popescu tried to read above-linked rundown of gnu failure at social media ; erection died about midway through. really, kids too clueless to comprehend how clueless they are writing "the history" of how spurious irc re-implementation went nowhere ?
mircea_popescu: "ARTIQ (Advanced Real-Time Infrastructure for Quantum physics) is a leading-edge"
mircea_popescu: though sense is usually an emergent property of half a year to a year's exploration
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in ##openfpga, "<mithro> mircea_popescu: symbiflow.github.io -- what I'm spending all my spare time on"
mircea_popescu is engaged in a review of freenode channels, article to follow.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform got brought up in #picolisp which is why i bothered.
mircea_popescu: ith, and certainy with the same bad hair) knocking on her door and saying "mimsy ? cool it!" so matthau can lay into them with "he went to college for four years and all he's got is cool it ?!".
mircea_popescu: and for the crit lit / media experts, here's a conundrum : cool it carol, easily the best movie made in the 70s and one of the best movies ever, came out 1970. in 1971, "plaza suite" featuring matthau and various women has a segment dedicated to this anti-carol (mimsy), a dumb murican priss who locks herself in bathroom on her wedding day. the clou of the entire production is made into some schmuck (almost as ugly as rob askw
mircea_popescu: 2017-02-04 23:23 ec changed the topic of #elliottcable to: a 𝕯𝖊𝖓 𝖔𝖋 𝕯𝖊𝖙𝖊𝖗𝖒𝖎𝖓𝖊𝖉 𝕯𝖆𝖒𝖘𝖊𝖑𝖘 slash s͔̞u͕͙p͙͓e̜̺r̼̦i̼̜o̖̬r̙̙ c̝͉ụ̧͘ḷ̡͙ţ͓̀ || #ELLIOTTCABLE is not about ELLIOTTCABLE
mircea_popescu: as opposed to word (how much is needed to compose a complete address) and so on.
mircea_popescu: i expect porn is very much going the way of fashion, or academia : first, faggots get a hold of it, then... nobody would touch it with a ten foot pole.
mircea_popescu: in other lulz : the people who debuted in porn this year are... 70% male.
mircea_popescu: i didn't know non-romanian speakers even knew the word "octet"
