mircea_popescu: well, the baked in assumption here is that the tits, great as they are, benefit from impredictable dress prison each day.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is discussing the header production only.

mircea_popescu: so technically thjere is way

mircea_popescu: well, same thing for all users on same day.

mircea_popescu: now, what is the problem with non-static page ?

mircea_popescu: echo $banners[hexdec(substr(md5(date("F jS, Y")),7,6))%42] . ".jpg') << blabla.

mircea_popescu: actually, let's meditate together upon the following item, perhaps it resolves some subtle issues :

mircea_popescu: i think ferocranium of many knocks learns some intuitive avoidance.

mircea_popescu: phf he was headed straight into "no such thing as static content, you can discover this whenever you re-read the same words in a trilema article", but he sidestepped.

mircea_popescu: this said, the implementation is in fact kludgy, but this is no reason to alter the design.

mircea_popescu: i dun see it in a design perspective ; heck, i actually doin't even see the problem with php. (by the time you're protesting a text preprocessor being used as a systems language your problem is not properly speaking with the tool).

mircea_popescu: so you loathe my changing header ?

mircea_popescu: i don't see it. i see "logins" as broadly nonsensical ; but programmable webserver seems fine.

mircea_popescu: um.

mircea_popescu: but consider if you will the problem of dynamic content. every one (of what, 10k ?) pages on trilema changes at least once a day (header), and so on. what now ?

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-02#1779585 << i suspect the ~only reason this is not in the standard is ~nobody wants to confront just about how little they actually have to say. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: namesilo says they advertise ~15 mins, ftr.

mircea_popescu: let me know if anything else needed.

mircea_popescu: ok, you have 3 a records now, empty to that and a ns1 ns2 as quoted.

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo and qntra itself ?

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo hang on a sec.

mircea_popescu: in other sadnesses, why the fuck do the spanish oversalt the anchovies paste.

mircea_popescu: "me discuenta por efectivo" pretty much universal keyword re "no vat"

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the push button at boot.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-02#1779569 << i paid about 6-8% of the vat i conceivably owed in argentina ; mostly in the shape of "who the fuck's gonna bother with the 80 cent surcharge on this pair of ho's stockings" ☝︎

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform us uni not ru uni.

mircea_popescu: and, continuing elitebook thread, now that alf fixed it for me it's actually worth the money.

mircea_popescu: phf problem with that item is that it always has counterstrike videocards rarely server rack mobos.

mircea_popescu: i dun recall what it was, like $200

mircea_popescu: i bought the http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-31#1778739 item there, for instance. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-02#1779566 << usually shop at end of campus. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: phf works.

mircea_popescu: i dun think we need any delete.

mircea_popescu: lol

mircea_popescu: phf you set on that 13th ?

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah. let's make a list this weekend so we can action monday.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform certainly. kinda why i want this as a collective effort.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-02#1779554 << understand the good part here : AFTER we're done building up the racks, we can prolly also sell them. certainly we own a valuable3 item by comparison to the orcs. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: how the fuck can 65% surcharge be not bad.

mircea_popescu: But $495 for a $300 in the US ubiquity Edgerouter Pro isn't too bad <<< i.... beg your pardon ?!

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-02#1779533 << iirc after a decade trying to fix it it's almost both ways by now ☝︎

mircea_popescu: no clear way to sort by u-ness.

mircea_popescu: $1101+iva honeywell bar code reader too.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-02#1779511 << wait, what ? ☝︎

mircea_popescu: shellout to ls amirite.

mircea_popescu: classic or the whole sftp wank ?

mircea_popescu: yup

mircea_popescu: kinda too lazy to check. but yes, put is ftp for http.

mircea_popescu: a does it ?

mircea_popescu: shellout is always inferior solution, you understand this, yes ?

mircea_popescu: i rather doubt this.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what's your blog do when you upload pics, shellout to scp ?

mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes wha happened ?

mircea_popescu: moving http from postcards to mail.

mircea_popescu: basically, people had a scheme, then started stuffing data in it (get was born) then stuffed so much discovered it really should go INSIDE the envelope not on it, so post was born

mircea_popescu: at least, that's how it was born.

mircea_popescu: because limit on url length.

mircea_popescu: anyway, idea being post is closer to get than to put

mircea_popescu: put uploads a file, post makes a get with the params in a different encoding

mircea_popescu: how are these the same thing ?

mircea_popescu: and the rurals really dun give a shit some dumb broad hoping to study criminology in maryland thinks

mircea_popescu: mod6 some fucking sense would help. but the truth is toucan is eaten here traditionally

mircea_popescu: opt out ofd the whole strings idiocy altogether

mircea_popescu: conceivably.

mircea_popescu: disk keeps a journaling and server keeps a manifesting ? gimme a break.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but the tightening point may be the very merkle tree in question, which could, for instance, be directly the addressing scheme

mircea_popescu: and it is a fact that a server's needs towards the disk are specific, specifiable, and very visibly different from "general purpose"

mircea_popescu: there is ~nothing wrong~ with http server NOT using standard fs but https-special fs.

mircea_popescu: tightening that bolt may deliver great results.

mircea_popescu: the other perhaps important point is that extant http servers have a very loose and distant relation to fs.

mircea_popescu: but yes, no argument that "modified" q being handled by timedate is beyond idiotic and has no future.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ah, we're actually saying the exact same thing, i misunderstood what manifest you had in mind.

mircea_popescu: i don't care to hear "item was put here on incatime so and so" ; just let me know what its hash is.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-02#1779491 << moreover, a hash rather than a date would be the correct response here. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: for the same reason "we cut gcc into more files, it is less big now" makes no sense.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-02#1779483 << this is a crappy idea. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform seems deductively self-evident that the superlative state of wildness is "has never seen man".

mircea_popescu: not like they signal anything properly in this country.\

mircea_popescu: well odds are you don't know where you are and what you just stepped on.

mircea_popescu: if it doesn't and runs away it'll still remember the encounter. not good for it.

mircea_popescu: if it panics and charges you you'll have to kill it, which is at best regrettable. meeting's not good for you.

mircea_popescu: i prefer to encounter the bipedal kind instead. more fun, and good for all around.

mircea_popescu: problem with wild felines is that meeting is neither good for you nor for them.

mircea_popescu: nothing like tiger, that actively stalks villages / takes babies.

mircea_popescu: lol nah. jaguar is shy, not some kind of batman.

mircea_popescu: supposedly. tho i'd personally not really want to.

mircea_popescu: anyway, shooting a toucan / cougar / etc seems pretty retarded. and nfi why you'd come all the way over here for fawn when you can just go to midwest like sane people.

mircea_popescu: eh, notice the pieces are like 1 a year. notice also the "judge releases" etc.

mircea_popescu: https://news.co.cr/five-arrested-for-illegal-hunting-in-guanacaste-costa-rica/66432/ < more recent, ~same vein

mircea_popescu: http://www.ticotimes.net/tags/costa-rica-hunting-ban i mean!

mircea_popescu: a sec

mircea_popescu: mod6 http://www.ticotimes.net/tag/costa-rica-hunting-ban << i'd say that just about describes it.

mircea_popescu: (they're actually eaten here, in the villages)

mircea_popescu: you'd shoot a tucan ?

mircea_popescu: not much game, lotta protected animals, it's not really a hutning spot. there's some, but nowhere near what you're prolly used to.

mircea_popescu: not really.

mircea_popescu: no/very limited hunting culture here, though.

mircea_popescu: and illegally, it's la-ish. police ends up in "balacera" with rando orc criminals biweekly.

mircea_popescu: wisconsin-ish i'd say.

mircea_popescu: not really.\
