this is what axe
time is like /me wonders about sword
time survivability
decimation: the
trouble is getting enough 'holes' on a reasonable size paper

that key material is loaded with: paper card
decimation: well,
the point is
that a fairly rigorous device could be made
BingoBoingo unsure how
to handle axe
time behind enemy lines
decimation: asciilifeform: it strikes me
that a handy product would be a little ada microcontroller with an implementation of rsa
BingoBoingo: This is BingoBoingo and welcome
to day one of Axe
time

that's a different issue, not critical
nubbins`: "glibc uses libnss
to support a number of different providers for address resolution services. Unfortunately, you cannot statically link libnss, as exactly what providers it loads depends on

decimation: asciilifeform: one wonders what
the openssl authors use as a 'baseline os'

the b-a of
the
time made it.
the usg follows in all dances. never yet lead, never will lead.
decimation: but
the sheer fact of usg's gold's possession 'made' it
the reserve currency
mircea_popescu: who, pray
tell me, eats
the shit it eats

to fully realize it usg would have
to publicly destroy
the dollar bezzle
mircea_popescu: decimation
this is not going away.
the usg's hunger for btc far exceeds its hunger for anything else COMBINED.
mircea_popescu: ".
The deal, according
to a "solicitation" document, would be worth $2.1 million

the U.S.

BingoBoingo imagines in
this instance lizards sacrificing CoinBase cred in swap
to offer cred
to Dave
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo we're
talking more "coming years"
than "situation atm" here.
BingoBoingo knows of no circumstantial evidence
that suggest USG proxy more
than exists for BuzzDave.
mircea_popescu: airjets can be made out of imported parts. and are. and
they suck. and it doesn't matter.

to national security as a mining farm, factually speaking.
BingoBoingo: I dunno if anyone here other
than hanbot will be familiar with BuzzDave's MO, building ASIC mining farm at any budget, whether feeds scamzors or not in
the process irrelevant
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's probably useful in building
the lists of who can be dekulakized willingly.
mircea_popescu: hm... check
that out, actually it isn't. he has a "coming
through a hole in
the air",

mircea_popescu: since bitcoin pulled
the code AS IT WAS and built a chain on it,

nubbins`: tbh gentoo is
the odd one out here, which is curious
nubbins`: but really
though,
the closest stable gcc version
to mod6's 4.4.5
that portage still carries is 4.4.7
nubbins`: bitcoinrpc.cpp:1761:30: error: expected primary-expression before ‘(’
token
nubbins`: but
there's another error right before

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform "I can verify
that downgrading
to Perl 5.16 works." uh ?!

to me, but weird compared
to linux and as a point
that displeases MP poor fundraiser Bob Beck is in
their WoT
decimation: mircea_popescu: note
that china knows how
this game works; is
taking 'possession' of
the south china sea
