mircea_popescu: aspie [ short for aspirational ] would roughly be what
they called "burgeois intellectuals" a century ago.
mircea_popescu: the aspies do it, of course, but
they don't matter from what i've seen.
mircea_popescu: those stupid kids will rehash
the same old stupid, in
their own
terms, of course.
mircea_popescu: if/when
they get rich and successful,
they'll have stupid kids.
mircea_popescu: im kinda curious
to see what ru/cn feminism wil llook like once
that happens.
danielpbarron: prince_nbingo, someone with your ip has joined #bitcoin and #bitcoin-dev with
the nicknames Skaag and chax. Is
that you?
prince_nbingo: Dear Sir, can you please
tell me where
to acquire
the bitcoin asses? I have a business proposal for you. I will present you as
the beneficiary, and i will prepare all
the legal documents and present
to
the bank on your behalf and
the bank will
then release and
transfer
the funds
to your designated account. Please
to be
telling about where are
the bitcoin asses, I need bitcoin asses.
mircea_popescu: it's very sound, strategically. "who would bother
to check"
Naphex: floppy drives no longer usefull?
turn em into backdoors
Naphex: sorry, forgot
the quotes
Naphex: For many of
the affected virtualization products, a virtual floppy drive is added
to new virtual machines by default. And on Xen and QEMU, even if
the administrator explicitly disables
the virtual floppy drive, an unrelated bug causes
the vulnerable FDC code
to remain active and exploitable by attackers.
mircea_popescu: "In my opinion,
the main reason why Windows is still faster on
the desktop is
that most of
their current GUI framework was built back in
the days of Windows 95, and
the framework is so fragile
that it has stopped
them from adding
too many new features
to bloat it further. Back in 1995, Microsoft was way more performance-conscious
than
the open source world in 2007, simply because
the hardware was orders of magnitude sl
mircea_popescu: "Anonymous (not verified) OpenBSD still exists?
Too bad.
The world would be better without security fanboys in general.
There is more
to
the world
than security."
mircea_popescu: there's no requisite for a dram cell
to know what it is holding in order for it
to be holding it.
mircea_popescu: individual ants act in a blind fashion, but
the ant layer acts systematically.
mircea_popescu: anyway, a good rule of
thumb is, when
the anon derps start
talking about "security benefits", you know what it is.
mircea_popescu: but you will notice much greater men succumbed
to
this. it's really how empires end.
mircea_popescu: by far
the most notable point of utility of
the wot
to brilliant individuals is exactly
this : breaks
the
traditional methods of anthill building.
mircea_popescu: keeping
the ants at bay is any serious beetle's full
time job.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the
thing is,
theo gets it, but is so well fettered with "well meaning" yet "unrelated" idiots he can barely move.
mircea_popescu: "virtualization seems
to have a lot of security benefits." aha.
mircea_popescu: cazalla: you'd
think some people would learn
their lesson having dealth with garza in
the past but no << understand
the rotinculo syndrome.
they DO understand, but what exact alternatives
they got ? it's either
this or go home.
they dun wanna go home, apparently
there's a famine in hungary.
copypaste: He puts "What is bitcion?" and "What is blockchain?" separately, as if
they're different
mircea_popescu: lol so garza bought btc.com and is now leasing it
to random derps ? mkay.
copypaste: And
then you put your about page as "about-"
copypaste: You get
this greaet domain, btc.com
copypaste: I'm supposed
to
trust
these
twerps with anything?
copypaste: they can't even use
their CMS properly.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform iirc, "flopyy" ness is an arbitrary bit. you can set bios
to
think usb as floppies if you wish.
assbot: Logged on 13-05-2015 08:56:30; copypaste: Don't have much faith in it but it's
the only one
that's even remotely promising
cazalla: copypaste, have you written about moving and living in
the phillipines?
copypaste: Wealth always goes
to
the
top in any system
fluffypony: plus it's fundamentally broken, no matter how
they
try manage
the initial distribution
copypaste: PoS looks
too much like "piece of shit" for my
tastes
fluffypony: the dude from BBR was
trying
to make one
fluffypony: not sure it'll ever be much in
the way of buy-and-hold-investment-worthy, but it's fun nonetheless
copypaste: Don't have much faith in it but it's
the only one
that's even remotely promising
☟︎ fluffypony: [09:31:28] <+cazalla>i'd stop drinking but
then i'd need another vice <- like Miami?
cazalla: copypaste, hope
that wasn't you i just ate in agario :P 8ch
cazalla: tbh i only lurk 8ch besides
the occasional shit post so if you've answered AMA
type shit before, i'll go have a google
copypaste: i know of a lot of old people with
the same condition from a Faecesbook group
cazalla: i'd stop drinking but
then i'd need another vice
cazalla: BingoBoingo, as much as i hate ciggs,
the drinking is prob worse
cazalla: and
the new
team mode is useless as people don't want
to
team up
to face other
teams,
they're all asian and want
to gang up on 1 person
copypaste: The Asia servers still suck ass
though.
copypaste: The new
teams mode makes it sort of bearable amusingly. Because you can't pick your
team, Voz has no power.
copypaste: It sucks even more
that we have
terrible lag
to all
the good servers.
copypaste: cazalla: yeah HKG is bullshit
too.
BingoBoingo: Gotta preak
the metacarpals a bit
to get
them
to heal stronger. Pole seems like an ideal
target. As long as I don't break any bones all
the way.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: 11 year plan. 29 now figure 40 I'll be ready
to risk death in a ring
cazalla: copypaste,
this voz clan
teaming up bullshit has me raging against agario
tbh
BingoBoingo: cazalla: Yeah, Iron pole in
the backyard
that at one point in history held
the clothesline
cazalla: i use
to box ya know, and kick box
mircea_popescu: "To our son, his excellency, Mr Barack Hussein Obama. I have said
to you before,
that even if Libya and
the United States of America enter into a war, god forbid, you will always remain a son. Your picture will not be changed."
BingoBoingo: Anyways 11 year plan is going well, arranged a sparring partner for
tomorrow.
