BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Do you have
a coup flying day set yet?
mircea_popescu: je n'ai pas eu besoin de cette hypothese
a lot more radical than originally thought.
mircea_popescu: dja know how despicable faggots of the interwar (such as, eminently, bedwetter blair) were "indignant" at "the cruel and violent sport of boxing" especially because "of how it makes
a minority of women behave" ?
mircea_popescu: to hear the woman retell it, it was more
a case of ww2 russian materiel, "we made
a buncha duds so now we're gonna call this
a new standard rather than throw them out"
mircea_popescu: you know back in the day she worked for the usaf, chet had
a buncha crap systems that had to interop, ended up plugging them all on
a hunk of wood to switch manually ?
mircea_popescu lived this recently, very elegant vertical 1920s style item, on wall. "what interesting art" "it's
a fucking sundial" "
a what ?!"
mircea_popescu: comes, originally, when this newfanged tech was new and needed
a name, from
a different item that was common curriculum and meanwhile disappeared
mircea_popescu: nobody even had
a decent monitor in the whole fucking noc. half of them at that point still fuckling tandys or whatever the fuck bicolor cgas.
mircea_popescu: it's
a box, which was once driven by the needs of people offering ISP services, which was consequently sold everywhere and which you picked up and used in your own way. meanwhile the people that drove the kvm item moved on, leaving you stranded. because how you use it and how they use it were never fundamentally the same, just briefly appeared that way.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-26 19:53 ag3nt_zer0: asciilifeform reliable info just meaning
a look at the situation from an area of the btc world that isn't full of shit - HERE being the only place I trust... and re: "no right time to be in it" I am assuming you mean having control of private keys at all times and that if I am really interested in trading in
a "reliable" way that I should be doing it here?, via WOT channels? or am I in outerspace herE?
mircea_popescu: the previous item are radio hosts,
a major underpinning of us counterculture throughout the 70s and 80s. not really much left by the 90s, and totally gone now.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: needless to say that all those websites are dead ; and that the "cadre" of young female fans is long rotten away, the 16 to 21 yo female crowd is all over what even these days ? etsy/patreon/facebook/what ? FUCKTARDS FUCKING RUINED THE GROUPIE! 2010s are
a regression to fucking 1950, holy hell, gotta have elvis come back to shake his hips once more ?
mircea_popescu: e evening timeslot. Buoyed by Opie and Anthony's lead-in ratings, the duo began to enjoy success. During this period, several memorable characters joined their on-air team, including taciturn producer Hawk, Dumpy, Tasteless Ginny, and the call-in prankster Joe Poo. The show's web-based premise inspired the founding of several websites devoted to the show, including RFBabies.com (once
a haven for the show's cadre of young fema
mircea_popescu: "RonAndFez.com : New York's WNEW-FM was converted from
a long-respected rock station to all-talk in 1999, with afternoon drive show Opie and Anthony as the focal point. Ron and Fez signed on to host an overnight talk show named Ron and Fez Dot Com, beginning February 21, 2000 and broadcast from 11pm3am. Ron and Fez eventually moved to evenings (7:0011:00 pm), then to early afternoon (12:003:00pm) and later back to th
mircea_popescu: and speaking of history, here's
a well forgotten bit (finally wikipedia can be useful, recent pop culture topic!) :
mircea_popescu: and in other "we are the asswipes, we programatically cut the very branch we sit on" lulz, "we did not choose the "new rothchilds" nor do we want them. if bitcoin cash is
a means to stop these people then it appears that the votes are being cast as we speak. if bitcoin cash is just another version of the "new rothchilds" then the votes will be cast for the next usurper. there will always be an underdog".
☟︎ ben_vulpes: in unrelated self-crits, orange county register runs
a piece titled "the future of americas suburbs looks infinite!", with such gems as "...experts claiming that many suburban tracks (sic) were about to become 'the next slums'"
ben_vulpes: something like copy newroot to /, mount everything in / except the newroot copy into it, chroot into the copy, cp -r all of what was at the root of the old fs (except the new root copy) into
a backup dir and then replace the contents of the root fs with the contents of the newroot copy?
ben_vulpes: the chroot into the chroot itself...), and then boot from
a livecd to move the new root fs to the disk root
ben_vulpes: i have what appears to be
a chroot with gcc 4.9 and py 2.7, it can happily boot x11 proggies from within the chroot which i take as
a good sign but not
a definitive greenlight; and now i'm mulling how best to make this chroot the root fs for the whole box. might mount my old root into the chroot, chroot in and mv that to
a backup dir (but haven't reasoned through what happens when you mount
a fs containing
lobbes: latest update from archiver front: I have managed to successfully bypass archive.is cloudflare js-challenge-bs. Ended up using
a combination of phantomjs/casperjs scriptolade. Crude, but it worx.
BingoBoingo: <gabriel_laddel> Wait
a minute. Pasteur separated racemates by hand -- so I should at least be able to tell "biker crank" (racemic meth) from "crystal" (d-meth) << Perhaps I can introduce you to little miss trainwreck so you can see how this ends
mircea_popescu: (re link, the worthy quote, for they too lazy to dig, being "Poettering, as usual, is working on his own solutions and not complaining about the problem. He is working on bringing service management to the next level. He wants to make it easy so users can sandbox system service without necessarily isolating them completely from the host-ware. No need to pretend that
a system service is
a set of processes completely independen

http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-04#1514253 << it was eaten by systemd. there is
a (last i saw, working) clean fork, 'eudev'. and it looks like phf explains further down in the l0gz.

a111: Logged on 2017-11-25 00:25 gabriel_laddel: Humans cannot. N-ISO can co-crystalize along with it. But
a NN? Idk
mircea_popescu: digital particuarly good fit too, because usual problem with mirrors is "your head won't fit in F". but
a ccd will.
mircea_popescu: so you should be able to either filter meth by
a succession of rapid wrist swipes or else shoot lasers out of your eyes.
gabriel_laddel: Wait

mircea_popescu: trinque you're just being negative, people solve really difficult problems when they also strap
a ticking timebomb to their ass all the time
trinque: this is gonna be
a rock bottom story for the ages.
gabriel_laddel: Humans cannot. N-ISO can co-crystalize along with it. But
a NN? Idk
☟︎ gabriel_laddel: 1000x magnification seems unrealistic - that being said: if I crush some product, take hundreds of images of each sample & use them as input into
a neural network along with
a 1-10 (bunk-absolute fire) rating y'think it'll get trained to recognize the real deal?
☟︎ ben_vulpes: i'm doing this inside
a chroot, so i think maybe something isn't mounted correctly? i've tried it both the way that mod6 suggested to me (-o bind /dev $chroot/dev) and the way the gentoo installation handbook says (mount --rbind /dev dev/)
ben_vulpes: with the old stage3, emerge-webrsync downloads what it wants (i think), but then barfs at the end with "Failed to validate

☟︎ ben_vulpes: here's
a lolbow, emerge-webrsync barfs with
a segfault on
a nomultilib stage3 with "Fatal Python error: Failed to open /dev/urandom \n Segmentation fault"
BingoBoingo: "The urbanite will claim to be the true representative voice of America, but they are but
a degenerated version of it. While we, the ruralites, are the true holders of our myriad cultures!" ... "Once we have achieved this strong base and brotherhood of agrarian identity, we can begin to push aspects of Agrarian Nationalism economically, socially, and politically."
phf: (there can still be
a linked separate endpoint that generates
a standalone image, possibly at
a lower coarseness, etc.)
phf: so the bucket is made by running truncate against
a certain divisor on the message timestamp in seconds. so playing with divisor gives me more/less coarse buckets
phf: ok, here's
a more integrated PoC
http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=from%3Amircea+god the image is being generated full scale, but then force by the browser to be 1000px wide. (fwiw, while still cheap, it is more expensive to resize it, than to spit out the whole thing)
phf: i still want to try
a couple of different image spitting libraries. this one is particularly expensive, nor does it support palette, so adding colors increased its size by two
phf: asciilifeform: added
a dragon line, some other indicators might be worthwhile, like year markers..
mircea_popescu: makes saliva way overpeptic, as
a result mouth is no longer
a balanced system
mircea_popescu: i suppose i have
a coupla girls that have yoga mats...
phf: well, i'm try-en to make
a point here, i only really have
a yoga mat..
a111: Logged on 2017-11-24 06:08 phf: gabriel_laddel: i have
a yoga mat,
a strip of lsd,
a supply of codeine and
a medical insurance card; i don't question their usefulness, i just think it's important to be able to discriminate, so as to apply each one of them appropriately
mircea_popescu: yeah but you happy with that much cpu melt ? i mean, if you get
a buncha concurrent searches...
gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform: There is still plenty to do. CLIM's COM-FOO machinery has to be cut & replaced with "functions most often called on / FTYPE matches this as
a valid ARG"
phf: these'll be disabled when i go to sleep in
a few though

☟︎ BingoBoingo: In other news: "Kenwanna Randolph,
a 24-year-old woman from Chicago, was traveling northbound on Illinois Avenue approaching Mill Street when she reported not seeing the officer’s emergency lights or hearing the siren. The front of Randolph’s Ford Fiesta struck the passenger side of the police car, causing major damage to both vehicles, police said. "
gabriel_laddel: Brånemark spent almost 30 years fighting the scientific community for acceptance of osseointegration as
a viable treatment. In Sweden he was often openly ridiculed at scientific conferences.
mircea_popescu:
a really ? finally moved to limit the tort nonsense via employment weird trick ?
mircea_popescu: "Traditional gateware design with Verilog and VHDL is well known to be tedious and inefficient. M-Labs have developed Migen,
a Python-based HDL and toolbox that addresses many of their issues and makes gateware design more productive. Built on Migen, MiSoC provides
a high performance, flexible and lightweight solution to build system-on-chips for various applications."
mircea_popescu: you'll basically get
a smoother curve than what you have now
mircea_popescu: you just decide on
a pixel count based on your design, and then you split the 24 * 3600 day into that many units
phf: right now it's tracking proportional message count per hour, so perhaps message count per minute, but then it's
a 1440 pixels width
mircea_popescu: can keep all of these in
a world-accessible directory which is purged say weekly. or whatever, "once
a week of all items older than
a week" like the pastes.
mircea_popescu: you decide on an image to be displayed on search page, specifically. "i want it 1024 x 168 pixels". you separately produce
a png, as wide as day count, and as tall as daycount * 168 / 1024 rounded. you fill that png with the proper lines, proportionally (so highest count day gets full line, all other days get proportional line). then you scale it down to 1024 x 168. you publish this scaled down item on the search page, and yo
mircea_popescu: compressed version always page width, allowing thus to produce
a proper as-wide-as-days-to-date item.
mircea_popescu: phf you know what you could do, add it to search pages. would that be
a lot of cpu ? to spit out
a png maybe 2k x 200 tall, and link it from
a compressed version on the search page.
mircea_popescu: make
a call like histograph?derpage, puts out
a png with the histograph for that item
phf: because #; in question is
a javascript and for
a specific day. since we use links for xref, i'm not sure what the semantic value of linking is going to be in that case. also mandatory javascript
phf: that would be
a useful feature, that's almost like
a part of search functionality
