mircea_popescu: for instance : ubuntu sucks ass, especially the new versions, and the early ones. nevertheless, i use 10.04 as an easement / windows halfway house for all sorts of people.
decimation: yes, the whole document reads as a retroactive justification for guido's missteps. "no no, you see it was a clever strategy to release python 3 in a way that made it seem that it sucked ass."
mircea_popescu: this reads very brokenly to my eye, for many reasons, such as : a) people who can't afford things get no voice. this is what "financial reasons" means : shut the fuck up and go home. if you are poor, you aren't a person.
mircea_popescu: "With the long transition to “Python 3 by default” still in progress, the question is occasionally raised as to whether or not the core Python developers are acting as reasonable stewards of the Python language. "
mircea_popescu: srsly, "not evil but good" "not reddit as much" ? incredible how stupid forms fucking stupid crystals.
mircea_popescu: at that point you are admitted as aprofessional in any discipline, when people consider that you may be trusted to never, ever, anywhere, use a term of art improperly. this is why they do four years' law and eight years' medical school, creativity malaplied can cost lives, topple bridges, destroy destinies. IT IS FORBIDDEN.
mircea_popescu: a simple serial iteration of "x as expected y as expected" can be followed and remembered momentarily.
decimation: apparently the new approach to sound science is to pr datapoints as they happen
danielpbarron: who also calls himself "goat" (same goat as on forum?)
mircea_popescu: such as the idea that their sexual preferences are given by god.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-05-2015#1123122 << there's no such thing as "defensive". it simply means 'our weapons', as opposed to the enemy's (those are offensive). ☝︎
mod6: <+asciilifeform> [BTC-dev] Full Orphanage Thermonuke Massif Output (without 'pages as heap' flag) << thanks asciilifeform!!
asciilifeform: [BTC-dev] Full Orphanage Thermonuke Massif Output (without 'pages as heap' flag)
asciilifeform: experiment with things such as varying sample rate, etc.
decimation: http://sealedabstract.com/rants/python-3-is-fine/ < nope, they are still digging their hole. "However one argument that definitely does not work is “you should work on Python 2 because that would make my life as a commercial software developer easier”. The fact that Python 2 and commercial software developers had a symbiotic relationship at all was a happy coincidence, never a goal. The goal was “produce a language that Guido
asciilifeform: decimation: as described in latest broadcast
mircea_popescu: which pissed her off to the degree she ~wanted~ to declare war. except then she realise the mongols are about three times as strong as the chinese, so instead just wrote humble apology about being old and frail and bald,
BingoBoingo: But in USia barrel is roughly as easy to purchase from "Rural King" as shovel
asciilifeform: (as in the 'rump kernel' example from last night)
mircea_popescu: because if they get large... se umfla tarita-n ei, as the romanian expression goes.
assbot: Logged on 06-05-2015 21:06:47; trinque: ascii_field: does make all of it sound like russia's trying to maintain form, while nato's trying thwart this as it can
asciilifeform: considering that i regard ww2 as still on - hard to 'under.'
mircea_popescu: sha256 is as long as tringque's.
asciilifeform: mike_c: be so kind as to load https://keyserver.mattrude.com/dump/current/ and describe the ssl cert you see
mircea_popescu: because why not, ssl lv3 is a standard-as-implementred thing.
mircea_popescu: if indeed "they" signed wrong domain, as opposed to matt rude being derpy, we will know down the road.
mod6: asciilifeform: here's an update as to where my test of v0.5.3.1+Orphanage_Thermonuke is at: http://dpaste.com/3J5K2JB.txt
BingoBoingo: Once the number of keys gets up there I'm writing this up as news
trinque: from an external threat perspective we're as weak as could be
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo for sure. no such thing as perfect health for athletes.
ascii_field: a machine that lets you detect other fella's rockets 5sec earlier, is really as much a lethal weapon as a nuke per se
ascii_field: just as usa did not like them in cuba
trinque: ascii_field: does make all of it sound like russia's trying to maintain form, while nato's trying thwart this as it can ☟︎
pete_dushenski: hm. stalin painted as being too forgiving. that's a new one.
nubbins`: I'D HAVE HAD A BALL AS AN EAGLE
assbot: Logged on 06-05-2015 19:47:33; mircea_popescu: i think i'd have had a ball as a woman.
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-05-2015#1122989 << l0l - how about as an elephant? eagle ? ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: i should hope the man's mental processes weren't as disordered in all fields as he displays here.
mircea_popescu: for the record, laratt as glider gets pretty thoroughly routed on http://www.metafilter.com/49480/I-Pledge-Allegiance-to-the-Confederate-States#1222181 and subsequent
mircea_popescu: i think i'd have had a ball as a woman. ☟︎
nubbins`: "in this method, a pillow softly kisses you as your body thrashes wildly until brain death occurs"
mircea_popescu: (this is ITS failure, try it as it might to misrepresent it as theirs)
pete_dushenski: so a rotating set of meals as a test, a benchmark, to ensure cohesion and the integrity of the social fabric.
pete_dushenski: aha. and this yeshivic arrangement is part of social security as well ?
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-05-2015#1122762 << scoopy counts as logs too y'know. http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-05-2015#1122543 ☝︎☝︎
mod6: and as far as valgrind, I'll do some stuff with it as I get through these other things.
mircea_popescu: should really see what itproduces as a blockchain first. at a bare minimum
ascii_field: it is obvious as daylight, to anyone who gives a damn
mircea_popescu: today most models have insecure leadership, and so "corruption", which is NEVER a problem, ends up misrepresented as one.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` is her nose big enough to qualify as a rachel ?
mircea_popescu: (as the above explanation, consider moldbug's very valid discussion of the guy with the ring that could kill. he who is secure in his authority makes excellent leadership. he who is not - horribru)
ben_vulpes: guns by any other name kill as well.
mircea_popescu: failed, as a committee run thing.
mircea_popescu: the us worked as a personal kingdom
nubbins`: failed as a committee-run thing
nubbins`: BME worked as a personal kingdom
mircea_popescu: nubbins` anyway, only notable for the ending of the original post, "However this conflict is resolved, I now know that I cannot rely upon my former partner and dearest friend and in the following year may work to build a BDSM dating site that is run effectively, responsibly and for the benefit of its users, not as a personal kingdom."
nubbins`: as you'd imagine, iam.bmezine.com created an insular environment that convinced a lotta fucked up people that the fucked up things they wanted to do to themselves were acceptable
nubbins`: you could set your profile as public or private
mircea_popescu: u can't simply dig hiostname, as plenty of machines don't have one. so whatcha gonna do ?
assbot: Logged on 06-05-2015 15:16:19; mod6: I can't really check from here, but later tonight will give some updates as to how my v0.5.3.1+OrphanageBurner build is running. last I saw, it was using quite a bit of available ram. was >200`000 blocks, and still running, but that was lastnight.
assbot: Logged on 06-05-2015 14:19:10; asciilifeform: the imbeciles are phucked and their only recourse, as is now traditional, is to fud and lawyering
danielpbarron: pre-configured to look for a sata drive to format and mount as the datadir for bitcoind
danielpbarron: yeah, it's as insecure as could be, because telnet shouldn't be enabled on the final product anyway
davout: telnet without a username got me in as root
danielpbarron: you should be able to telnet in as root, password is probably also root or something

asciilifeform: as is the 5th

assbot: The end of an era as Chinese company mulls plans for massive AMD investment | TechRadar ... ( http://bit.ly/1GZbQ25 )
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu http://www.techradar.com/us/news/computing-components/processors/the-end-of-an-era-as-chinese-company-mulls-plans-for-massive-amd-investment-1284519 << somehow i missed this one
mircea_popescu: Finally, if the event is held between the 1st [SSI distribution] and the 16th [last EBT distribution] the ghetto will be flush with government money. Any event held after the 20th will be likely to draw criminal predators, mostly teens ranging away from the nest to fill their mother’s requests, such as, “Baby, get me a new purse—a nice leather one like those white ladies carry.”
mircea_popescu: there was no longer an ability to marshal large ghetto forces, absent their high school breeding grounds. The media coverage was a complete lie and a hoax, the rioters have been excused, and the race-purging strike teams in outlying areas ignored or covered up. During the school year attend such events in Baltimore only on the weekend. If they have a Friday night event, do not go. As this event is in August, I predict
mircea_popescu: "The Baltimore riots were fueled by cohesive large scale mobs exiting their criminal training ground, where they are prepared for a lifetime of illiteracy and incarceration: Baltimore City Schools. These riots only reached virulent levels during the week. The media claims that the riots calmed down after Friday because of the police indictments, but this was not so. Friday was as hot as any day of the riots other than
mircea_popescu: rhaps purely-for-profit raids on retailers based around Halloween, or school events. As with the recent riots the aims will be largely racial purging and plunder, not protest."
mircea_popescu: When I was the same age as the MMA athletes you are training all we had was silk-lined fantasy. Now there is a real sweaty reality in a cage near you, and you just might be able to help some hard working young wrestler who actually knows how to make weight, box, if only in spots. Even so, it’s still boxing, and it’s a fact, that most of the hands being taped today are being taped cage-side. You might-as-well wield
mircea_popescu: MMA is the place where all of those bodies are landing. It might not be boxing, but boxing is there. And the grappling and kicking coaches want your help. Believe me, comparing notes with a ground fighter in 2013 is far better than arguing with the wannabe martial arts movie stars of the 1970s about their bizarre array of secret animal punches and their ability to levitate out of your way as they stole your life force
cazalla: you'd think they'd want the best man or woman for the job as it relates to their skills
BingoBoingo: cazalla: I seriously though wonder how a person could win a competition in a combat sport while retreating as often as Mayweather did
BingoBoingo would also not doubt that some sort of climate shift is happening in north america, but doubts atmospheric carbon as the case when compared to local change in Albedo wrought by soy
decimation: asciilifeform: as in they 'gain citizenship' or whatever?
BingoBoingo: <decimation> if you are wondering the southwest and find a gigantic blue wasp dragging around a freshly-paralyzed tarantula, leave it alone << Fuck. No tarantulas here, but that coloration is new this year among some of the assorted wasps I've ignored as variations on the paper wasps. Will have nore concern for
BingoBoingo: wasp/hornet is a hard distinction to make in north America. Most things we'd refer to in NA as hornets look more like European wasps than North American wasps
BingoBoingo: cazalla: I always try to play chess as black, why should I oppress myself by favoring that colour further
mircea_popescu: as to fly in, i have better shit to do with my girls than lift argentina from the shithole. maybe if i cared more, or maybe if it pissed me off more. but as it is... whatever.
asciilifeform was also under the impression that mircea_popescu already flies in females as necessary for terraforming martian colony
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'm still puzzled as to how importing female ua would replenish the missing supply of (somehow) necessary orcs
decimation: freezing wet winters, hot as balls in summer
mircea_popescu: lls flat beneath the reality of naked force. The hooting black heathens that have hunted me in the streets of Baltimore for over 30 years might be my enemies, but they at least acknowledge my manhood as they probe for my every weakness, and have struck a resounding blow against the slave mistress society that seeks with its every apparatus to render me weak to the point of meek.
mircea_popescu: I now observe, through what of my primal man’s eye I have been able to salvage from this systematic assault on my humanity, that all it takes is a few urban savages to rip the mask away from the slave mistress that owns us to expose her for the impotent squabbling bitch that she is, and open the door for men to be men once again, as the lie that encases our souls crumbles to dust with every fumbling falsehood that fa
mircea_popescu: it's the case. the jews have it ridiculously bad but not this bad. the arabs have it almost as bad, but not nearly.
mircea_popescu: my main complaint here in argentina is that well... there's no "orcs" as you call them, in sight.
decimation: even though rich jews live less than a few miles from the hell-hole, they might as well be a world away
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there is no such thing as "government largesse".
mircea_popescu: it's not accidental that my path to breaking 1984 was as i described it at the time.
asciilifeform: re: police irregularities: i'm still betting on the hypothesis that local police will be pissed on in propagandatron endlessly until finally entirely replaced (as planned) with centralized gendarmerie
mircea_popescu: "10. All whites I have spoken to have noted that blacks they normally come into contact with have been behaving with increased—or not before present—hostility. This has been noted by the author as well, with hard eye-contact and aggressive posturing evidenced by most black males I now encounter, where before that was a minority expression of about a third of such men."
decimation: given how they have to deal with reality as-is
mircea_popescu: the problem is that the king has no further good claims on sovereignity, and as such must now surrender the police.
decimation: asciilifeform: in theory, ip cameras could work as well as dumb analog-over-coax, but in practice the firmware sucks
