kakobrekla: that parsing and saving is very slow on some sites and i dunno if we want
to hit him with everything ?
mircea_popescu: gawker does "radical
transparency" don't you know. when you fuck with me you can read all about it on
trilema, but it's gawker
that's radically
transparent. a bunch of
twerps whose names nobody even happens
to know. paragons in
their own minds of
things
they don't understand, nor would understand even if
they actually
tried
thinking about 'em.
mircea_popescu: "oh here's a backroom napkin scribbled with my protest over
the culture of backroom dealing
these people imported into our fine organisation of delusions of
transparency. i am
too stupid
to understand how ridiculous i'm being. NEOTENY FOR
THE VICTORY!!11"
mircea_popescu: seriously, you gotta write emails
to
the staff about stuff like
this ?
mircea_popescu: anyway,
the one notable
thing re gawker is
that
the
twerps smokling
the crack pipe of radical-this-and-that do not have either
the intellectual wherewithal
to notice nor
the mental acumen
to actually create
THEIR OWN FUCKING BLOGS.
mircea_popescu: kinda funny
to see
the us reduced
to
the 50th state of
the great nation of africa, but
then again
chetty: <mircea_popescu> next i'm gonna hear shit farmers in kenya
think
they're pulling
the sun up each morning.//
they aren't?
mircea_popescu: next i'm gonna hear shit farmers in kenya
think
they're pulling
the sun up each morning.
mircea_popescu: they probably imagine
they ever published anything worth reading,
too.
mircea_popescu: fascinating what derps actually sell
themselves into. gawker editorial actually
thinks it's more
than a branded chicken coop
mircea_popescu: these schmucks actually
thought
they do something remarkable in any sense ?
mircea_popescu: ".
The essence of Gawker has always been what happens when we get out of
those meetings and go back
to writing and editing
the stories you do
that no one else can do. "
BingoBoingo: ^ China now doing
the biggest SQL join in history. #AshleyMadison #OPMhack
mod6: Can only check
teh weather if in assbots L2. Which is very
temperate.
BingoBoingo: Not even a year and
thing's now something
to stand up on boxes
mircea_popescu: aha. if you wish
to pro-rate
towards nsa budget i'll ok it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you paying for
the server or just using one already deployed ?
mircea_popescu: it
took
them
to
the same dark place, and recently cost
them
their entire business.
BingoBoingo: "sell support" worked for cisco and oracle when marketing
to
the helpless and overencumbered with bezzle
mircea_popescu: if
that's what you aim
to do with your life, go
to new york join
the police force.
mircea_popescu: the only endpoint for
that is where rhel ended up : a cheaper USG Department of Windows.
mircea_popescu: the "sell support" model has been
thoroughly debunked in
the field. or at least
that's
the moral i draw from revierwing history.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu>
the one
thing closed source can never do is good docs. << But
then how would
they sell support as a seperate product?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Oh
those were
the paid, pretentious herders of
the unpaid. But since Denton clamped down on
their lulz Apparently herding interns is
too much nao.
mircea_popescu: somehow
the bright strategic minds involved missed
this point.
mircea_popescu: the one
thing closed source can never do is good docs.
mircea_popescu: trinque yeah. more important for a powerful foss
than gcc.
trinque: mircea_popescu: makes sense,
they're excellent.
chetty: visa doesn't dicriminate against 'the poor',
they just either don't give
them credit or charge
them bucket for it
mircea_popescu: strangely enough, nobody seems
to learn anything from
this.
mircea_popescu: trinque i
think
the manuals are
the secret reason keeping any bsd userbase.
mircea_popescu: that'd have been interesting
to know
twenty years ago.
mircea_popescu: if my father weren't a
total fuckwit, he'd have
told me "my son, you'll make a billion dollars before you'll read a
two page item about you
that manages
to eschew glaring errors".
mircea_popescu: "oh, because fiat glbse is so desperate for <<organic
traffic>>
they're resorting
to
the politically correct version of spun content & keyword stuffing" ? kthx.
mircea_popescu: "The views and opinions expressed herein are
the views and opinions of
the author and do not necessarily reflect
those of
The NASDAQ OMX Group, Inc." mmmmkay...
then why are you publishing it ?
mircea_popescu: if anyone still has a
twitter account, maybe link
the derp
to
the above. you never know when athlete face learns something from
the internets.
mircea_popescu: i merely do not give enough of a shit about
the cause celebre du jour
to neglect
technical arguments for its sake.
mircea_popescu: and in any case - it's not some "disain for
the poor"
that's at work. just because everyone is on a (mostly hypocritical) fixation on loving
the poor does not make my position disdain
mircea_popescu: i just don't happen
to be clueless enough
to confuse
those for "Scalability". considering i am not actually a
technical expert,
this reflects very poorly opn
the intellectual abilities and assorted scholarship of random derps opining on nasdaq.com
mircea_popescu: i am not opposed "to scalability". i am opposed
to very specific idiocy for very clearly delineated
technical reasons.
mircea_popescu: Mircea Popescu, who is opposed
to scalability due
to his vocal disdain for “the poor”
trinque: whole sentence needs
to be chopped and screwed
mod6: the openssl configure script (perl lel) seems
to indicate
that no-shared is
the default -- but i wanna be sure.
mod6: asciilifeform: ever get a chance
to look at
those bins?
trinque: in
this case it'd be as BingoBoingo said, don't have fucking dumb hosts
that can't
TCP
trinque: seemed
to be a point about superficial mitigations vs fixing
the underlying issue
trinque: asciilifeform: re aslr and other
things
trinque: maybe asciilifeform's perspective on mitigations applies
to
the latter
trinque: latter seems
to have
to do with hiding facts about
the inner network
topology
BingoBoingo: <trinque> mod6: BingoBoingo: what are your opinions on using random-id and reassemble
tcp in incoming
traffic
through pf? << Haven't used either of
those yet. Pretty much use block, pass, and queue
mod6: start simple,
then build in more complexity as only necessary.
mod6: looks like you can use random-id for some normalizatoin purposes... main
thing is here, read
the pf.conf man page 2x and
then build up your firewall and use
the heck outta
tcpdump
to ensure what your rule set is as you want it.
mod6: im not positive (i don't have access
to my pf.conf atm)
that i've ever used random-id. i
think
that's for a very specific problem. but yeah you probably /do/ want scrub all reassemble
tcp
mod6: trinque: what are you
trying
to achieve?
trinque has found
the openbsd manpages
to be in a class of
their own
trinque: mod6: BingoBoingo: what are your opinions on using random-id and reassemble
tcp in incoming
traffic
through pf?
trinque: anybody ever wants my launch codes,
there's
the way
trinque: man
that
thing makes me uncomfortable
mircea_popescu: there is
this particular
thing in autists where being compressed widely helps
mircea_popescu: and i suspect all
this is autism related and should prolly be a med insurance deductable, like kinetotherapy.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, anyone amused at how
the "mainstream media"
took all of five seconds
to decide random white dude was "racially motivated" blowing up a black church, wheras
they're still "trying
to look for motives"
that paki dude shot up
the marines ?
mircea_popescu: poor mod6 no
time
to mine because all
this foundation stuff fell on his head.
shinohai: But
today, pickings were slim and I needed a spare lappy
shinohai: Yeah but
they have incredibly shitty electronics at our Goodwill. I usually
troll craigslist and sometimes get free parts.
shinohai: I wish we had something like
that here. I blow so much on used equipment xD
trinque: I
tend
to make my way
there once a week or so
shinohai: Looks so
trinque, and I hopped on craigslist and bought a shitty laptop for $100
shinohai: whelp it seems pogos make excellent mining controllers, not
that I mine anymore.
shinohai: Time is
the most important asset for
testing. I still want
to prove
that a small group can outproduce
the "bitcoin foundation" sans
their immense budget
they blew.
mod6: haha, no worries.
that's fine
too.
shinohai: I'm a masochist and
type everything LOL
