ben_vulpes: <ascii_field> http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2015-June/000099.html << ah it warms my heart. as an aside, is theshooping in the message protocol actually necessary for anything?

mircea_popescu: anyway, to take a page out of alf's book, "we will know terminal decline stage by this sign, that ivy-limp bureaucrats will organise tranny beheading parties and then gather the heads in a sack and take them to isis, as a ritual sacrifice. much to everyone's confusion and wtf in that camp."
BingoBoingo: trinque: No, not so long as lynx lives. This is just the next stem from js.asm
ascii_field: as does my arse
pete_dushenski: "The Royal Bank of Scotland said on Wednesday that about 600,000 customer transactions had not been processed as a result of a technology failure overnight. The issue affected transactions at the company’s R.B.S., National Westminster Bank, Coutts and Ulster Bank brands." << wasn't there an old meme about 'bitcoin users not affected' ? seems appropriate here.
pete_dushenski: same age as putin for whatever that's worth
mircea_popescu: default as in, default for irc.
BingoBoingo: <ascii_field> but basic point - yes - need nodes, so can have usable default << As weaponixation approaches a suggested .conf updated occasionally may be welcome for maintained nodes but harder for pogo "fire and forget" nodes
ascii_field: mats: belgium is in the reich, therefore just as good as florida etc
mircea_popescu: very similar situation to the entire "we don't spy on citizens, the brits did, as part of an agreement we made with them, so whatcha gonna do"
mircea_popescu: so there was a blood gorged mosquito on the wall. as i didn't want to leave a splotch, i hit it in such a manner as to only dizzy it. i can now disable-shot mosquitors.
shinohai: ascii_field: are you limited as to what data you can put in the version string?
shinohai: I'm down for the irc mechanism, i really like it but not as it is now
ascii_field: almost half as long as a cabbie drives
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: know that 'uber' etc. is an attempt to 'proletarianize' cabs. as they normally are so costly here that they are beyond the regular use of all but the richest
mircea_popescu: which i would loathe, as i routinely reject living anywhere with shitty cabs
ascii_field: speaking of vacuum 'diffusion pumps' - apparently there are firms selling them, from old uni chem kits, as 'bongs' to smoke weed from
mircea_popescu: should go in there same pile as ideal conductor
mircea_popescu: no such thing as infinitely bound material yet discovered
assbot: Logged on 17-06-2015 19:10:50; mircea_popescu: from the log, "I think we will close this thread as there is nothing more to discuss. This is not about democracy or censorship, but about keeping our hobby alive without authorities enforcing new laws in order to limit ADS-B usage."
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-06-2015#1166571 << many usg subjects see the crown in much the same light as little children see their demented violent alcoholic father ☝︎
ascii_field: 'speaks volumes for the actual “democracy” in the system. (Namely, there isn’t any. China — the Saudi Arabia of bitcoin — dominates.' <<< l0l!!! this of course is same party line as in mike hearn's blatherings about 'let's separate the economy majority of bitcoin from the whims of the hashing majority'
ascii_field: ^ said mircea_popescu as he sizzled in his very own private 3-phase electric chair
mircea_popescu: from the log, "I think we will close this thread as there is nothing more to discuss. This is not about democracy or censorship, but about keeping our hobby alive without authorities enforcing new laws in order to limit ADS-B usage." ☟︎
mircea_popescu: about the same as between the calcutta beggar and the pufferfish
ascii_field: i imagine i'd bubble a bit in calcutta as well, before going under.
ascii_field: (as shown above)
funkenstein_: just not as free
mircea_popescu: i vaguely recall this, like i vaguely recall his being the sort that's "correct in the broad strokes but entirely out of small change" as the expression goes.
ascii_field: btw as a long-time reader of herr orlov, i can't help but notice that he spat on diesels and bragged about a seldom-used ('only in doldrumss') outboard petrol engine
ascii_field: kakobrekla: at the very least, every single one of the ~publicly sold~ chips, afaik, fits this description as per the published specs.
ascii_field: funkenstein_: the way it works is that there is literally no way to build a 'bitstream' (as the configs are called) for a chip without using vendor's turd toolchain
ascii_field: and the folks who have notions that it is, demonstrate a total black-as-night unmarred by any light ignorance of the physical basics involved
ascii_field: it isn't happening or so much as credibly threatening to happen
ascii_field: (morons pulling their cocks in 'nanotech'-flavoured ways does NOT count as work)
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-06-2015#1166285 << it most assuredly is not. and on top of it, as soon as you're anywhere near done, they make a new and entirely incompatible one. ☝︎
ascii_field: the entire thing, note, is built specifically around making this activity as unpleasant and expensive as possible.
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-06-2015#1166281 << everything is 'measurable.' but you have to be ~able to lay out the circuit physically~ rather than merely mathematically to get the guaranteed equal delays. as in, you have to have knowledge of ~all~ addressable part of the fpga. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: now we understand that retrospectively, the chord in phones is not a requirement but an anachronism, and we expect everything be available as wired or wireless at our option. but the wired/wireless dichotomy was not even meaningful to bell, or marconi.
mircea_popescu: yes, that so far is right. the thing it fails to account for is that roads create traffic, not the other way around. it's not need that creates advance, as the idiots writing schoolbooks claim. the other way around.
mircea_popescu: i just saw "love me or live me" last night. story of fucking america retold as being being built by a sucker labouring atop a dry cunt.
assbot: Logged on 17-06-2015 13:34:30; asciilifeform: given as presently i can't even afford to not have a day job which eats 98% of time & energy
asciilifeform: as it is, i fully expect to envy the '16yo-ish female in kabul
asciilifeform: idk if i'll pay. what'll i do if the kid refuses to pull? negrate him as i swing ?
asciilifeform: as pictured in the well-loved 'baroque cycle' by n. stephenson
funkenstein_: vpn is slow over there but works as you'd expect
asciilifeform: i have lived in cities. in crappy soviet dwellings, with little room to move, even. in order to do this again voluntarily i would want something very valuable in return. such as not having to work for a living ever.
mircea_popescu: because if we're doing the entire "here's some random shit i came up with, do planning for it", might as well.
asciilifeform: (wrote hate mail, they 'gave it back' as shop credit. as if i have much desire for this service now)
jurov: and as for leisure, solitude, quiet, food.. you can find a fault with some of these things anywhere
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-06-2015#1165778 << find us another way to amortize the cost of making so much as a z80 ☝︎
asciilifeform: because they will not deliver so much as the means for making a usable steel fork. and you can take this to the bank.
asciilifeform: midnightmagic: my observation was that there is a curiously large population of people who studiously avoid so much as dipping a toe into the prototype waters.
asciilifeform: (last i saw, the 'cad' did not even do anything so basic as calculating bond strain energies. because atoms == legos, apparently.)
asciilifeform: i, for one, only have a mechanical vacuum pump. it clatters, spits oil. would have looked at home in edison's house. i know that i will not be making so much as a triode valve with this pump. ☟︎
asciilifeform: this is precisely the kind of animal mircea_popescu wrote about - idiot 'millenials' who have never so much as carved a chess set with own hands, failing to distinguish elaborate 3d drawings from actual tech
asciilifeform: midnightmagic: have you ever witnessed the operation and internals of even a very elementary 'nano' instrument such as electron microscope ?
asciilifeform: given as presently i can't even afford to not have a day job which eats 98% of time & energy ☟︎
assbot: If you label any new thing as "contentious" before a software vote can take place, that is attempted dictatorship. Theymos has just lost my support. : Bitcoin ... ( http://bit.ly/1CdkZAi )
jurov: http://np.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3a1hmz/if_you_label_any_new_thing_as_contentious_before/ lol such drama
copypaste: as the other pubolications
copypaste: it's probably geotargetted as well, as it mentions australia
cazalla: as a shock even
mircea_popescu: as empirically observed, there's not any cause or any way to build anything in a swamp.
mircea_popescu: no usable jet, not like carriers would be usable even if they had a jet, no money to back it all up with anyway even if they had a miracle cure for rocketry, and no brains to work the entire thing even if money were somehow to be found, as it's always found when there's brains involved.
assbot: Remote Code Execution as System User on Samsung Phones | NowSecure Blogs ... ( http://bit.ly/1GY05fK )
mats: https://www.nowsecure.com/blog/2015/06/16/remote-code-execution-as-system-user-on-samsung-phones
mircea_popescu: the others didn't have the gumption tro spend a coupla years as paris hilton's foot slaves
decimation: "as u see on this postcard im in great country of fuckwitstan. pls to commit my patches ur cryptolib"
asciilifeform: 'Libgcrypt now accepts contributions after having received a simple mail (right, e-mail, no transatlantic snail mail) with a Developer’s Certificate of Origin as known from other projects. Voilà, patches with new features and performance improvements started to come in.'
ag3nt_zer0: I am coinfused as to how the "keys" work though... is my "fingerprint" my public key?
felipelalli: welcome DanielBTC! He's a personal friend, same city as mine.
BingoBoingo: If you are talking about Nick Denton's impending abandonment of Gawker Media... Very early qntra was far less kind to GAW Miners going so far as to label them "Jizz Moppers"
BingoBoingo: mats: No, Hogan is doing the cucking as cazalla says
mircea_popescu: "I should make it clear: we would have settled too, in the interest of fighting another day, if Hogan’s demands were reasonable and the story flawed in any way. But now that the trial is on, we intend to fight it as far as we need to and we can." = we have as much money as josh garza
cazalla: mircea_popescu, that's him and he stretched as far as down under back then
gribble: About as likely as pigs flying.
felipelalli: BingoBoingo: why gribble don't catch the ! commands in this channel as well? I use !gettrust to gribble in other channels.
BingoBoingo: I thoroughly enjoyed "The Highlander" as an example
ascii_field: in as far as i can tell, all of the 'compromises' of the past decade are cultivated reichstag fires, arranged to fatten the kompyooter insekoority 'industry'
ascii_field: what, of any consequence, as far as publicly known, walked away ?
mats: all this stuff referring to the OPM hack as "cyber katrina" is also great
trinque: https://medium.com/@InertialLemon/apple-s-bitcode-telegraphs-future-cpu-plans-a7b90d326228 << I read this as indicating that in the future, Apple apps will be submitted as signed "bitcode", not a signed executable binary
BingoBoingo: circumfrence 0.8x height might not even qualify as planet sometimes.
ascii_field: if you own so much as a 1970s-era analyzer, it'll do
mike_c: gernika says their trading engine was written in node.js as of a couple years ago..
cazalla: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=16-06-2015#1165022 <<< two of those adverts sport "made in australia" (bonds and jockey).. there was a bonds factory not far from where i grew up and my mother would take us in there now and again to buy factory seconds as it was cheaper.. in they end they closed up shop and moved to china ☝︎
danielpbarron: i didn't see mpoe going as high as it is right now
pete_dushenski leaves this as an exercise for the reader
mircea_popescu: who the shit cares ? the "citizens" certainly don't. just as long as the new, improved, electronic and digital food stamps make it on time.
pete_dushenski: decimation: if you're financially exposed to benefit from 'the event', as we all are, then it's a matter of how long can we be patient
decimation: the question of how long the dollar can 'levitate' as the world's reserve is an interesting one
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: as it's entirely up to you how long you feel like steering this ship. except you're, what, half putin's age.
pete_dushenski: not quite as juicy as the government bonds, but exposure to russian corporate bonds looks decently lucrative compared to western offerings
