mircea_popescu: im pretty sure the woman is thinking, and im pretty sure this is what.
asciilifeform: at the risk of mixing metaphors, the battery is powered by burning the (remaining) furniture.
ben_vulpes: more along the lines of draining the battery, asciilifeform.
ben_vulpes: the more distracted by sexual inequality, gender inequality, income inequality, and the more attention they're paying to the management of the epic bureaucracy so built, the less time and energy will be devoted to the impending conflicts.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: 'heightening the contradictions' ?
asciilifeform read that earlier today, but had a mindfuck and thought it was about perkin elmer
ben_vulpes: i had a massive change of heart at lunch today
ben_vulpes: "at least the cause has been moved forwards!"
asciilifeform: trinque: why would that be
assbot: Log In - The New York Times ... ( http://bit.ly/1NpFvTg )
cazalla: oh i forgot to mention, can no longer ssh to it or anything
asciilifeform: cazalla: iirc that's the default left by uboot
cazalla: while i await danielpbarron's response, anyone want to suggest why the pogo flashes green after following his guide after a reboot?
asciilifeform: who's they
trinque: man that chick... I bet she smells bad; they always do
trinque: that's about all the monkey-football time I have for today
trinque: hm, boost wants bzip2 even though it's been instructed to not use that
mod6: <+jurov> my mom was using "husqvarna" << they make my favorite chainsaws / best chainsaws imho ☟︎
nubbins`: phun joke for people who work in offices: wander over to helpdesk and say "man, i found this usb stick in the parking lot and now my computer's acting /crazy/"
trinque: nubbins`: oh yeah, big time
trinque: an ass hair, the same from a perspective
nubbins`: in fairness, the work behind presenting you a bash prompt is absurdly complex 8)
trinque: I used it long ago working on a parental controls thing at a shartup
trinque: boost is absurdly complex tho
trinque: eh I know the drill
nubbins`: like on the order of 80%+
trinque: "...failed updating 3 targets..." BOOOOOOST.
nubbins`: heh. i'm actually just trying to feed in my own tar right now
asciilifeform: i'm in the process of slicing out all of the actually relevant changes
asciilifeform: nubbins`: could wait till i post this, you know
trinque: boost is the fire swamp
trinque: "...on 400th target..."
nubbins`: "By default this override file is named local.mk and located in the top directory of the Buildroot source tree, but a different location can be specified through the BR2_PACKAGE_OVERRIDE_FILE configuration option."
nubbins`: <+ascii_modem> nubbins': linux with disabled mmu id... msdos!! in the bad sense <<< omg this is why i shop here!
asciilifeform: vs the bizarre kabuki thing that i never imprinted on
asciilifeform: not the bath, no
mircea_popescu: classical theme.
mircea_popescu: because girls playing in the bath ? lol.
mircea_popescu: http://41.media.tumblr.com/900eef46da7c13a7fa7cc84362e4b4ce/tumblr_mjefgkz3Zj1s78jo7o1_1280.jpg << this too alf ?
asciilifeform: as in, there's a piraña pit trap door
asciilifeform: yeah i've for many years wanted to see the 'iq exam' thing automated
mircea_popescu: that way, the "willingness to do exam" is less divergent.
asciilifeform: aha that
mircea_popescu: kinda why you want to hang all kids that do under x.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the notion one even gets a choice in that matter is pernicious.
mircea_popescu: trinque in general nature has well designed things : junkies in withdrawal are ineffectual.
asciilifeform: the exam that only measures what it wants to measure and not first and mostly willingness-to-do-exam is not yet born
mircea_popescu: lmao! most expensive mit in the world. also only place in the world where mit grads can not use a battery to light a bulb.
mircea_popescu: What does that mean for U.S. employers hiring people born since 1980? Goodman notes that hiring managers shouldn’t overestimate the practical value of a four-year degree. True, U.S. Millennials with college credentials did score higher on the PIAAC than Americans with only a high school diploma (albeit less well than college grads in most other countries).
trinque: asciilifeform: no, but of course all pollutants come to the party
trinque: one thing I wait eagerly to see is when those run dry
asciilifeform: counting the ones in the drinking water or no ?
mircea_popescu: like a third ?
trinque: I'm trying to find a figure on the number of USAians on psychiatric meds
mircea_popescu: but when 2025 rolls around and late 30s/early 40s dumb fat fucks inquire as to why we're fucking teenagers
mircea_popescu: in any case, it's for the nine year olds we're even building all this wot bitcoin etc stack
ben_vulpes: actual problems to cut their teeth on.
mircea_popescu: however, the next one will probably shine.
mircea_popescu: anyway, human populations are not linear. the current twentysomething/late teens are completely discardable out of hand, like so much rag.
mircea_popescu: well... "gayness", the faux cultural homosexuality the us came up with to try and avoid facing the actual problem
mircea_popescu: diet has possibly less to do with it than gayness.
trinque: and that is largely due to terrible upbringing and terrible diet through formative years
trinque: mircea_popescu: the simple instructions bit is as much mental illness as it is literacy
mircea_popescu: Altogether, the top U.S. Gen Yers, in the 90th percentile, “scored lower than their counterparts in 15 countries,” the report notes, “and only scored higher than their peers in Spain.”
funkenstein_: ETS got a shock <-- the funny bit
asciilifeform: enormous compared to the tiny jeweler's saw i'm accustomed to
mircea_popescu: "Not only do Gen Y Americans lag far behind their overseas peers by every measure, but they even score lower than other age groups of Americans."
asciilifeform: http://www.hitachipowertools.com/images/product/saws/miter_saws/C10FSH.jpg << that one
mircea_popescu: When the results were analyzed by age group and nationality, ETS got a shock. It turns out, says a new report, that Millennials in the U.S. fall short when it comes to the skills employers want most: literacy (including the ability to follow simple instructions), practical math, and — hold on to your hat — a category called “problem-solving in technology-rich environments.”
asciilifeform: everyone already has this saw.
asciilifeform: did not occur to me to take a photo
asciilifeform: mexican jail << possibly favourite of all the pics i've seen so far here
mircea_popescu: but hey, at least they challenged patriarchy.
asciilifeform set up enormous power saw, other things, back now
assbot: American Millennials are among the world's least skilled - Fortune ... ( http://bit.ly/1xJA8gc )
ben_vulpes: the honor of a few at the top. maybe. if they get out and come here.
TomServo: ascii_modem | canary << was hoping this would be mentioned. So what is the value? zilch?
ben_vulpes: but this weird hairdo has the clap
mircea_popescu: http://41.media.tumblr.com/e11f97d0aed79e6d22c67e293d63ecc3/tumblr_mx97scN9DM1s78jo7o1_1280.jpg << country bumpkin reaches california. first day, burn the tits. next day, burn the butt.
mircea_popescu: what, you think i don't like apple because of its hairdo ?
ascii_modem: canary << mega-lol, apple killed their canary. who noticed, who remembers now ?
ascii_modem: but yeah for uniquely impoverished archs there is mmuless linux
mircea_popescu: thanks god someone reads these logs o.O
mircea_popescu: what is it doing in linux then ?
ascii_modem: 0 price sensitivity below 10k << false for all common parts. try it
mircea_popescu: why would you want to do software mmu ?
ascii_modem: nubbins': linux with disabled mmu id... msdos!! in the bad sense
TomServo: jurov: I'ma thinking.
jurov: so, TomServo?
jurov: and conclusion was, that any bigger c++ project needs it (or poor reimplementation of it)
trinque: I am well aware, just marveling at what I see in my terminal
trinque: probably better to snip boost
trinque: probably lots to be snipped out of the boost config
trinque: jurov: just running the auto.sh
jurov: it may be the default
trinque wonders what the fuck python headers have to do with boost
mircea_popescu: "what's the most important tool in the arsenal of the security consultant ?"
mircea_popescu: TomServo incidentally, they being your machines, you can take a hammer at parts.
jurov: overall, being able to learn on cheap older stuff is nice to have
mircea_popescu: i hope it has ssl. you know, for the api.
