mircea_popescu: i dunno how or why it'd be worth anyone's
time, outside of
the perverse interests of entomologists etc.
mircea_popescu: this is why i have people doing summaries of
the shit, which summaries i generally do not read.
mircea_popescu: now
that usg finally arrayed enough ethereum shitfountains
to imagine it can pull it off,
the
tune changed. and it changed mid sentence and full spin around.

trinque: asciilifeform:
the
thought actually was... "so emacs is a sort of masamune... lol!"
mircea_popescu: this is rank nonsense if you
think any about it.
the only part of sex
that's in short supply is
the erect penis. everything else is overabundant. how exactly would
the owners of
the only rare part be paying anyone for anything whatsoever ?

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=02-07-2015#1184666 << as i understand,
this is an example of 'smv' (sexual market value) as described by mocsny and kokkarinen at work. it
takes
the form of 'man: what can i afford' 'woman: with your bid, you can afford
to be my driver and pay
two-thirds of my rent. in return, you get every 47th fuck, if good behaviour.'
mircea_popescu: what exactly about
this chick or
that dude is making
them be "regular folks", which is
to say chattel rather
than persons ?
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 23:15:29; danielpbarron: i
told him
that I don't
trust
https in general and he completely flipped out
to where he was yelling accusations like "you're going
to get exposed for
the fraud you are! we use
https here!" or something like
that
mircea_popescu: otherwise, women drinking
themselves into beds has been a mainstay of post-colonial british empire.
mircea_popescu: trinque okay, but you know,
the
term both preexists and actually has genuine usage outside of whatever hipster subculture.
trinque: mircea_popescu: referring
to
the particular euphemism used around
these parts
to refer
to
the lifestyle where you get fucked up and fuck other dudes, and call it a sexual orientation
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 23:11:35; mats: who is
this popescu guy
that's constantly
talking about enslaving people and why is
this mpex page so ugly
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 23:04:05; danielpbarron: you'd
think, but
they are more of
the socialist nature
than
they'd like
to admit
to
themselves which becomes quite apparent when someone like me starts advocating feudalism and slavery
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 22:56:37; danielpbarron: at least
this
time around everyone knew who i was (that mean Bible guy who's also affilated with
that mean exchange operator) and got very few culty "why haven't you signed yet" lectures

trinque: danielpbarron: I don't recall ever encountering a "polyamorist" who was not female\
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 22:49:55; danielpbarron:
they're all into
this whole "polyamory"
thing which is a just ephemism for mysandry
mircea_popescu: the cost
to
the enemy of any device is made out of a real and a perceived factor.
these sometimes diverge. all radiation
things diverge in
the sense of perception overwhelming reality.
mircea_popescu: someone recently managed
to close down a 12 block section of wash dc by literally saying "i
think i heard gunshots".
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 22:46:19; decimation: yeah, it might be visible, but
the effort going into
turning a bomb into an 'aerosol delivery system' is probably wasted. Like ascii's point about chemical EMP bombs
mircea_popescu: the obvious approach would be
to protest
these uppity kindergartners feel
too special for
their own good. but
that's merely sympthom imo.
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 21:09:51; ascii_field: 'let's break semantics of everything because it isn't like anyone still expects anything
to work as printed on
the
tin'
mircea_popescu: in its own perverse way, it's a leadership function. provides means for people
to agree.
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 21:04:00; ascii_field: usgicity is infectious - no one wants
to be
the first fella
to stop clapping when it's clap-for-stalin
time
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 21:01:51; kakobrekla: unless you are registered
terrorist
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 21:01:47; ascii_field: isn't BoA infamous for being, approx.,
the microshit of u.s. banks ?
DanyAlos: But I supousse
that if I speak spanish here nobody would get a
thing.
DanyAlos: Haha. It english almost have nothing
to do with me.
mircea_popescu: DanyAlos in general english wouldn't have much
to do with one's identity, does it ? unl;ess you'd be shakespeare or something.
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 20:44:30; ascii_field: 'getdata is used in response
to inv... ...t can be used
to retrieve
transactions, but only if
they are in
the memory pool or relay set - arbitrary access
to
transactions in
the chain is not allowed
to avoid having clients start
to depend on nodes having full
transaction indexes (which modern nodes do not).'
mod6: <+trinque> and hey, I got a static bitcoind << nice!! i'll give
this a shot here
tonight yet
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 18:19:46; ascii_field:
trinque:
this is more of a 'reader'
than 'writer' affair anyway
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 18:18:22; ascii_field: (though, comically, it can still decide
that said ip 'misbehaves' and is
then left dead in
the water)
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 17:49:50; jurov: anyone'd like
to bounce-mail some
to europe?
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 16:21:44; ben_vulpes: only solution is
to burn everything in sight
that pisses one off.
trinque: bout
to give it a run with gcov
mircea_popescu: because
that means i'll have
to bring forth
the
tracked 800kton one.
mircea_popescu: omfg fuck
this shit. outsiders do not wish a lever or care for one.
mircea_popescu: "Should
the outsiders gain authority,
they have no real power, because
they do not know how
to work
the levers
to operate
the machine."
mircea_popescu: heck,
the way usg is going,
this is actually becoming more and more
true each decade.
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 16:19:40; decimation: I'm sure
that if you met
the leaders of
the average usg institution
they would strike you as nice people
trying
to do
the right
thing.
they are just imprisoned by
their choices, making
them into figureheads
punkman: "I can't use ::int64_t as it not defined on all compilers for example on some platforms (Windows) we do not have stdint.h so we do not have int64_t in
the global namespace. "
trinque is astounded at
the amount
types wiggle platform
to platform
trinque: will document what I ended up having
to do
to build it at
the end
trinque: mod6: switching
to vanilla gcc got past
the fPIC barf
mircea_popescu: to "discredit yourself" in
the estimation of boring old aunties and so forth is exactly what cool is all about.
mircea_popescu: who
the fuck wants
to "credit himself" with
the retarded ?
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 16:16:04; decimation:
https://devinhelton.com/2015-06-25/meme-theory < "Thus, outsiders discredit
themselves when
they make accusations of conscious conspiracy. Any person of even mid-level status knows
that
the statement is flatly false.
They know
that
the accused elites genuinely do seem
to care about helping people.
They know
there is no conspiracy.
Thus
they discount
the self-interest
theory and pay no further attention."
trinque: which I do habitually, as if
trying
to climb across
the desk with
the mouse
trinque: ah yeah, I've had mine move suddenly if I lifted
the mouse while using it for
that reason
mod6: otherwise, it could be something with
the surface
that you're using it on... like if its some how refracting in some strange way
mod6: ah, ps2. maybe just
try disconnecting it and re-connecting it?
mod6: sometimes a hair gets stuck in mine, and I have
to pull it out.
mod6: trinque: aight,
thanks!
mod6: and if
that doesn't work, maybe I can give 'hardened/linux/musl/amd64' (i don't see a non-hardened one available atm)
mircea_popescu: well of course. problems down
the road is what we signed up for.
trinque: mod6: I'm going
to re-run it with
the "vanilla" gcc now
mircea_popescu: if you
think bitcoin is currently supported by people using bitpay
to buy coffee,
that is squarely your problem
decimation: zooming out,
the game
theory is definitely against someone
trying
to make bigger blocks
mircea_popescu: looky here : a) mpex makes more money
than
the entire faux & pretend ecosyustem of coinbases and whatnot.
those COST, a shitton of money, for
the services
they fail
to provide.
mod6: trinque: sometime
this month I'll
try
to pay with 'default/linux/uclibc/amd64' instead.
kakobrekla: 90% <
thats just
the breaking point. once
they figure out
they have no wehre
to send
those coins short of mpex,
those will be gone
too.
mircea_popescu: their job begins and ends with rejecting bad blocks.
they are in no way involved in deciding what
that means.
mod6: <+trinque> suggests it's maybe a matter of
the hardened
toolchain eh? << yeah, i
think
this is a clue
mircea_popescu: this is why miners are NOT actually seated at
the
table.
mircea_popescu: in other words,
they can go hang, won't be noticed, won't be missed.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla a loss of 90% mining power relates
to blocks
taking a little over an hour, not a month.
trinque: suggests it's maybe a matter of
the hardened
toolchain eh?
