BingoBoingo: Gotta use a very fine source
though,
targets are very
tiny
jurov: nah, point a gamma source
toward ram
BingoBoingo: Or you could
tap
the buttons on your computer's front panel
shinohai: hex editor feels clunkier
to me :/
BingoBoingo: Got
to use hex editor on memory pages of running bitcoind
shinohai: it's no big deal bitcoind doesn't have importprivkey
to me
BingoBoingo: But now I'm just sticking with 0.7 for
the learns
BingoBoingo contemplates DNS and IRC snip on his 0.7 branch, wonders how much his 0.7 will look like 0.5 if
the cutting continues
jurov: at least i
think so
jurov: no, i set it
to 0/5/3/1 as default
BingoBoingo: Bitcoin foundation is serious now, Has
two branches
jurov: really? pediwiki says "The head of
the Science Council of Japan’s expert panel has said Japan's seismic conditions makes it difficult
to predict ground conditions over
the necessary 100,000 years, so it will be impossible
to convince
the public of
the safety of deep geological disposal."
BingoBoingo: Also US really doesn't do much in
the way of putting spent fuel in coffins,
Tends
to leave it swimming in pools, just outside of reactor housings
mircea_popescu: the main point of difference is
that
the soviets at least had some still functional brainparts.
BingoBoingo: On
the other hand Bridgeton Missouri landfill which has perma underground fire spewing radio weird makes news
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> u.s. safety record of
the final collapse period will quite likely make
the su one look rather good in comparison. << Calloway County plant in Missouri has made
the news number of
times
this year for shutdowns related
to declared non-radiological steam leaks.
mircea_popescu: nothing gets "magicked away with magic rays".
they can shove
their hands in ears all
the way
to
the elbow, i'm getting all my pounds of flesh.
assbot: Logged on 03-04-2015 04:14:29; mircea_popescu: cazalla write
to
the author and
to forbes editor,
tell
them
they can either publish a fix or else i sue.
mircea_popescu: same
thing
that came out of
the "hey, you're defrauding maryland u" email.
decimation: yes,
the most lulzy
thing about 'goldbug preppers' is
their choice of a pile of metal vice actual people
to help
them in a
time of need
assbot: Logged on 01-08-2015 14:20:38; mircea_popescu: i guess alf's observation re kalash bullets, copper and izhevsk is so difficult
to grok and utterly advanced people just can't wrap
their heads around
the fact
that copper's not really
the only superiority metal.
decimation: but
that ain't gonna happen because it would cause $bil in paperwork
to be generated
decimation: actually I bet a large number of existing plants could be converted over
to
this design
decimation: but you are right, it could have been built 30 years ago instead of what we have
today
decimation: who knows about its actual record in
the field
decimation:
there are american nuclear fission designs
that depend only on gravity
to stop reactions
mircea_popescu: not merely shit, but shit
that's been
trampled by monkeys.
mircea_popescu: "designed by americans" is quickly becoming
the english equivalent of "marfa romaneasca"
mircea_popescu: the "resistance
through culture" intellectuals still did a lot
to mitigate
the sort of damage discussed here
mircea_popescu: but yes.
the us is not only just as inclined
to outright lie as
the su was, it's also blessed with
the gift of suck in
the shape of a purely imbecile population.
assbot: Logged on 01-08-2015 14:47:17; mircea_popescu: yet somehow in
their minds
the idea doesn't form
that... hello ? anyone home ?
mircea_popescu: in fairness it hasn't been studied
too much yet. who knows.
decimation: asciilifeform: my understanding
that
the "U" dry storage casks are specially designed
to be put into 'fast breeder' - for a
time when usg comes
to its sense
decimation: yes,
this is
true, although I would prefer us safety record
decimation: actually
this is a side-effect of ramping up fission - it would increase
the supply of random shit coming out of
the reactor
to study
assbot: Logged on 01-08-2015 14:35:30; mircea_popescu:
that's all i was saying really. making your own rare metals may work, but it won't be
this century.
assbot: Logged on 01-08-2015 14:11:44; mircea_popescu: except electric contacts are not really where
the cut lies atm. optic interactions (hence hafnium - ever seen an ingot with
the microflim effect btw ?)
assbot: Logged on 01-08-2015 14:01:46; mircea_popescu:
this century will be
the rare earths century.
decimation: asciilifeform: my poor node is only at 343k, seems
to be syncing very slowly
assbot: Logged on 01-08-2015 14:00:05; mircea_popescu: oh
this is resistive memory.
decimation: which is good in
the sense of 'could be
traded' but bad in
the sense of 'oh noes
they are dumping onto
the market'
