ben_vulpes: buddy i've been beaten back on entirely conventional archs even of late

danielpbarron: i'll put some more up soon
izabera: i mean you must be aware of btc's recent jump to >15k usd
asciilifeform: i mean it is also expensive compared to children's tricycle. but how about comparing similar items..
asciilifeform: izabera: i gotta bite : compared to what ?
izabera: all good, i don't actually need help or anything
trinque: I dunno; I would've taken the comparison to Terry Davis as a compliment!
asciilifeform: possibly i'm not using enuff repellentpowder, lol
asciilifeform: does it ? i dun recall last time e.g. trilema was '#1 on tardcombinator' ☟︎
clambodile: asciilifeform: I thought I would lurk for now, if that's aight.
clambodile: I would describe myself as "a rando". I found this channel by chance, thought it seemed interesting.
asciilifeform: d00d is, as i understand, a 'pillar-of-the-komyoonity', i.e. full-time politruk.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-17 16:54 asciilifeform: all i solidly know of the tptacek fella is his reaction to phuctor.
TomServo: aha, I recognized the name, didn't recall the connection
TomServo: asciilifeform: it dropped by the time I thought to archive, https://archive.is/iYTlp
asciilifeform: TomServo: the proxy thing sounds exactly like what i wanted. primo candidate for tmsrization.
phf: i think this is the happiest i've seen BingoBoingo ever
BigTexasBingo: Necessito encuentrar un nuevo lavador por mi ropa. Current one hasn't been attended since I dropped off mi ropa. But only been by twice.
asciilifeform: and i'ma have to write a detector for this kind of idiocy, because anything at all can be expected from intel et al.
mircea_popescu: i gathered :)

a111: Logged on 2016-04-22 15:58 asciilifeform: i like to call people who by their very presence make various constructive activities impossible, 'neutron absorbers'
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: W_ZeroP is pretty nifty; this is a the great and legible approach to numulating with computers i've been missing my whole life ☟︎
asciilifeform: !~later tell phf consider sharing your ada parser, i'd like to make a clickable-keywords hyperlinked thing at some point
asciilifeform: last i heard, e.g., dell and microshit, 'took bitcoin' ( equally fiatronically )
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-09#1749022 << did any of these nonsenses ever ~take btc~ , or did they merely take bitpayolade ? ( and the latter i'll guess finally croaked..? ) ☝︎
mircea_popescu: DID NOT work out for them ; and in typical fashion of imbecilitard, they WILL NOT confront it. ever. 100% dedicated to this, until i personally fucking grind their face in the dirt, they'll go on "lalala we know shit":\
BingoBoingo: Adjusting to activities of daily living is happening, taking more time than I though.
mircea_popescu: i guess i shouldn't generalize!!!1
asciilifeform: fwiw i bought a coin there once to see what would happen. ( but earlier i also did this at... mtgox . worked there also! )
asciilifeform: i'd pay easily a few hundy, say, for a good one. but it's a mythical beast.
mircea_popescu: i have incandescents here, 50 or so lamps, didn't yet have to change one
asciilifeform: i cannot answer whether they're a ~profitable~ racket in usa. but they ~are~ well-attended.
mircea_popescu: i would be surprised if they can get enough people together to interest a cheap restaurant.
mircea_popescu: 10`000 idle http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=criminology experts included, i hope ?
mircea_popescu: if only. but the way their idiocy works, they'll just i dunno, refuse to deliver pages spuriously because your browser doesn't sing "hail hilarity" in the right order.
asciilifeform: i dare say that dice players have a more accurate picture of reality than typical orlolist
asciilifeform: pretty sure i saw this. there was also a more interesting variant with bluffing and under-the-table note-passing deals etc.
mircea_popescu: https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/91jJWHkkA1L._SL1500_.jpg <this thing
asciilifeform: it's apparently a phrase, but i only know it from mircea_popescu
BingoBoingo: I have seen actual wood in US, usually homes of older people whether house is young or old
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i've even seen actual wood .
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, I'd never left. So far I am noticing most prices here, where shit apparently happens in Uruguay only moderately lower than rural middle west yet... Quality of everything except door hardware vastly better in most respects
asciilifeform: part of it i suspect is the feeling of futility, they know that the usian reservation is waiting for'em wherever they go
asciilifeform: i laughed the first time, years ago , when i first read mircea_popescu said this on trilema; but since then met whole horde of usa folx who never even had a загранпаспорт
asciilifeform: oh hey i wonder if he's got gangrene yet
mircea_popescu: am i supposed to decrypt with your own key ?
kjj: hmm. thought I encrypted it with your key
mircea_popescu: am i supposed to decrypt with your own key ?
kjj: I take it there isn't much activity on that site these days
kjj: I had put in another request on mpex a little more than 2 days ago
kjj: mircea_popescu: did you get my message earlier? My router crashed shortly after I sent it, so if you replied I didn't see it
asciilifeform: if mircea_popescu says his personal pr0n is of high quality -- why should i not believe.
BingoBoingo: I suspect the clarity of the Brazilian spanish accent is related to my own previous aural experience. When I studied a bit of portugues the accent was far easier for me to produce myself.
mircea_popescu: (no, not gonna publish the results. i'm like the world's only and thereby also foremost private pornographer.)
mircea_popescu: well... i never heard of anyone turning down night at the movies because it'd be uncomfortable to live in the movie hall. but who even knows.
asciilifeform: hence the 'i wouldn't want to lose seasons' thing.
mircea_popescu: how would i go about knowing what squirrels know ? i am not a squirrel myself.
asciilifeform: i read 'ukr chickie dun wanna costa rica' as 'import pet', possibly.
mircea_popescu: i'm not proposing to forbid winter or anything.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i like seasons ok, but the thing with this particular spot is that it's ~perpetual spring.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i don't dispute that part. sure, necessity is the mother of invention, a proper beating whenever needed the cornerstone of domestic bliss, and so following.
asciilifeform: but to return upstack to thread -- i can easily picture folx who dun want to move to where there are no seasons.
asciilifeform: the 'good climate makes folx lazy and slowly climbing 'back up to trees' ' item is an old saw, but i'm not aware of any major hole in the theory ☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎
BingoBoingo: Ah, the new normal. I move to South America and suddenly neither the current USD price not its all time low vs Bitcoin are certain
mircea_popescu: i've yet to see an ac unit here.
asciilifeform: tho i suspect not 'warmer air currents', but americanization, 'eww, sweating' etc
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: subjectively folx tend to 'feel' climate not as the avg. temps, but the extremes, i suspect
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i thought you meant "at standard pressure" ie as opposed to who knows what arcana you had in mind.
mircea_popescu: apparently there was a glaciation in europe while i was not paying attention.
asciilifeform: aaactually i can picture.
mircea_popescu: i expect they want to turn as many of their cogs as possible with it. so yes, hired through manpower, mandatory-complimentary "id protection" from equifucks and so on.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> "a maximum of impact with a minimum of effort" as far as the usg is concerned : trades in a worthless dead elephant for the continued attention of 10k useless schmucks it for some reason decided to put on the rolls. << From what I understand when Google hires the 10's of thousands in batches they do so through "Manpower" and other contract work agencies for nominally 12-15 usd/hr (usually less than $fedminwage
asciilifeform: ( i dun think usg coin-operated scamola works outside reich )
asciilifeform: i'ma guess that ~0 live outside reich
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo pretty big push in the usg."tech" community to not support bitcoin. fiver dropped it, of all people. and in general, i dun imagine you'll see usgtron support it nativel.
BingoBoingo: <cazalla> anyway, before the kids go for the power point and phone again.. i'm off.. nice pics BingoBoingo << Glad to see you return

asciilifeform: i test these days on 16-gnu and 16-adacore.
asciilifeform: i'ma try it myself this weekend.
asciilifeform: so i refuse to fatwa gnat17.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-08#1748600 << ftr i have nfi who either him or the other derp was, and dun think i missed anything by this not knowing. ☝︎
asciilifeform: i can't evenread this, it makes my eyes water.
