BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> why is he using source he doesn't control from people he doesn't know ; and why does he imagine doing this is different from being on windows. << Probably because Job
mircea_popescu: why is he using source he doesn't control from people he doesn't know ; and why does he imagine doing this is different from being on windows.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i haven't any idea who wrote the linked text. but clearly it is someone fed up with having to shovel the shit to create his local 'clean'.
mircea_popescu: who told random usg tard that he is qualified to "cure cancer" or even get out of bed at all when he can't even run a clean system ?
ascii_field: FUCK this-replaces-x11-but-won't-pipe-over-tcp
BingoBoingo: It's the rare actually interesting new comment on /. that isn't copypasta

jurov: and prolly he wasn't paying for the grinder plates
ascii_field: and grinder may be loud, but you aren't robbing bank at night
ascii_field: it won't surprise me if this brings down sks as a thing.
ascii_field: (goes without saying, don't run on a box where pgp is used for anything else. it will strain your rng to all hell)
mircea_popescu: well if it doesn't pop in half hour ima... what ? give you the pubkey ?
mircea_popescu: the biological sign of success as a parent is that your kids couldn't give less of a shit about you. that's how maturity works. look at any fucking mammal out there.
mircea_popescu: go me, i just won all the ballas parenting points, and the bitch ain't even my daughter.\
mircea_popescu: i don't claim to be a fucking code eagle. i claim to live in a world where i don't have to be.
mircea_popescu: o it is isn't it
mircea_popescu: i don't see how a sub's mod woulkd change because of the packet order.

mircea_popescu: moreover unless i want to fuck you i couldn't give less of a shit about your "real world" identity
HeySteve: mike_c, any idea why they don't implement a gribble/assbot verification system to solve the problem?
mircea_popescu: the reasonable assumption is a beast that wasn't yet born.
mike_c: the problem with keybase is that it's smoke and mirrors. there isn't any actual link between those things, but it is pretending there is
mircea_popescu: i think it might be related to the spam discussion. "why is spam misspelled ? not because they can't hiore an editor. but because the demographic."
ascii_field: those folks aren't using the net as such. they're using sms (and, the occasional arsebook)
mircea_popescu: "no you don't understand, reddit drives traffic!!1"
binaryatrocity: I didn't say that at all
binaryatrocity: i didn't say that
mircea_popescu: this is the sort of thing one can't understand from outside.
mircea_popescu: that's ok, we don't like github either.
binaryatrocity: I see your point, the public-facing info can be useful though, sure there might be no real tangible benefit to tying your github to your gpg key that you couldn't achieve in a different manner, but it does provide a clean interface
mircea_popescu: "oh, we don't have the continental legal system here - we have an adversarial system" good for you
mircea_popescu: I'm going to repeat this because I know people are going to misunderstand me: the system that you want is impossible to construct in the framework of modern medicine, if for no other reason than doctors don't read-- derive no benefit from reading. The system does not exist, and you cannot create it. Psychiatry is politics; medicine is the justice system. Pharma are the opposing lawyers, and doctors are the jury. Th
trinque: if you don't crack yourself maybe you'll learn what's actually worth feeling anxiety in life
mircea_popescu: "I have a surprising piece of advice for parents, which I hope will be taken in the spirit it is offered: your kid doesn't want to be around you that much. No one does. This isn't because you're a bad person but because you're an ordinary person. You are not such a unique, creative, intelligent or even interesting person that the kid benefits from constant exposure to you. When you have something to offer, maximize
mircea_popescu: y, that one more condom wouldn't make the necessary difference."
asciilifeform: 'works of nature', even at their ugliest, don't provoke in my mind a sense of the monstrous - because they do not have the flavour of dead ends.
asciilifeform: from the problems-we-don't-have series! (tm) (r)
mircea_popescu: because if it weren't... think for just a minute how horrible life were if in point of fact we were imortal.
asciilifeform: who said being poor bugger living in own shit doesn't have up-side !
mircea_popescu: or in other words, the only reason you think they're still men is because their key expired and you don't have to refresh anything.
phf: mircea_popescu: i don't think that's the case. there's some magic happening, because there are no provissions to do a key refresh yet my formerly expired key still works.
mircea_popescu: but some common ground can be found. "your wife won't do what you tell her to ? what does the possessive denote then ?" for instance. "oh but it hurts. and she finds it disgusting". yeah. that's the fucking point. of course she'll obey an order to eat more chocolate.
mircea_popescu: to some people, the notion that men aged > 50 today as well as their antecessors didn't do x y z thing automatically disqualifies them, as men. to some other, it's just ridoinculous bs.
mircea_popescu: i don't think you're enough of a pedophile to give a shit about what teenaged women do anyway.
mircea_popescu: he happens to be exactly right, too. welfare class strictly means entrenching aristocracy, it isn't even a thing on and of itself. just a sympthom of that phenomena.
mircea_popescu: he entrenchment of an aristocracy, can't have one without the other once you get bigger than 20M, ask Bismarck. "Does he write for Time?" No. But keep this in mind every time you hear how great it is Bill Gates is curing malaria after leaving us all with Windows."
mircea_popescu: in media and not understand media? The fact that feminism is in the mainstream means that it doesn't exist, it is no longer real, in the same way that when you hear "gun control debate" it's a lie and "fiscal cliff" is an easy to market, safe distraction from the structural problems that can never be named, here's one: for any heterogeneous population, the expansion of a "welfare class" is logically inseparable from t
punkman: I don't see any mention of sha1 in the rfc regarding subkey sigs etc
assbot: Logged on 12-10-2015 22:51:13; punkman: btw if you don't want the signatures on your subkeys being sha1, I think --cert-digest-algo is the option that needs changing
mircea_popescu: miss california / miss usa aspirant, asked by that slime perez hilton what she thinks of same sex marriages, didn't have the presence of mind to tell the old fag to stuff it with the bullying, as this is about hot young women not about wrinkly old poofs nobody would fuck with a loaned goat penis,
punkman: btw if you don't want the signatures on your subkeys being sha1, I think --cert-digest-algo is the option that needs changing ☟︎
mircea_popescu: iirc i have a "why you don't want to chain hashes" thing somewhere.
mircea_popescu: no, but if the number reads "4" you don't need to be shown the deed with number 3 to know 4 is a valid number.
mircea_popescu: but you can't verify it is good now!
mircea_popescu: jurov you don't have what to confront it with man.
mircea_popescu: jurov well you wouldn't know in advance. maybe 3 is unreleased and you see 2 and 4
jurov: ^ wiki material here. but i don't have acct
assbot: Logged on 14-05-2015 21:32:19; mircea_popescu: if you can upgrade your key for free, you don't have to pay mpex, you can just find someone with a key they don't want to use anymore and they can "upgrade" theirs to yours.
pete_dushenski: jurov: why one key ? can't you make new key just before current one expires and sign old key over to new key ?
nubbins`: the point that i shouldn't have to expose my body to some random gov employee in order to exercise my charter rights was lost on many
BingoBoingo: "I needed to be somewhere by 6 p.m., and all of the active chargers were full. I couldn't plug in all day," he said. "There was a Volt that appeared to be finished charging, so I unplugged it so I could get a half-hour boost. The Volt isn't pure electric -- it also has a gasoline engine. The next day, I learned that the Volt owner was furious, and he sent out this email blast saying that I stole his charge. It was awful."
nubbins`: green party can't win without people like you
nubbins`: i can't keep track. we had turkey yesterday
pete_dushenski: ascii_field: you don't know how tickled this idea has me :)
pete_dushenski: house isn't multiple hundreds of square metres on multiple floors.
deedbot-: [Trilema] You already had what you think you want and can't get. - http://trilema.com/2015/you-already-had-what-you-think-you-want-and-cant-get/
assbot: Streamium : Articles About Argentina and Bitcoin aren't true ... ( http://bit.ly/1VOITvh )
mircea_popescu: "You might think that the rage is the spark for a transformation of America, a full scale Dagny Taggart meltdown or Bolshevik revolution, depending on your hat. That's not how it works. If this is narcissism, then its purpose is protecting identity, defending against change. Doesn't matter what side you think you're on, unless you are unplugged you are for the status quo."
mircea_popescu: well they can't eat.
mircea_popescu: " Is there a natural economic equilibrium price where, say, a U Chicago grad can do no economically productive work at all but still be paid to use Instagram? Let me be explicit: my question is not should we do this, my question is that since this is precisely what's happening already, is it sustainable? What is the cost? I don't have to run the numbers, someone already has: it's $150/mo for a college grads, i.e. t
mircea_popescu: you didn't like logic in school or something ?
mircea_popescu: no qualms with that. and he who is in the driver seat is the driver. excuse me while i don't stick around with sweving cars.
mircea_popescu: s, but a picture of a baby isn't more important than a picture of a car. "Yeah, but--" I know. Logic is mean. "
assbot: Logged on 12-10-2015 08:29:48; punkman: I don't understand this
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-10-2015#1296856 << china likes us start-up culture and its effects. "never interrupt enemy when making a mistake". traditionally you wouldn't have the gall to pointedly help him, either, but i think mr xi correctly inferred ustardian head too far up ass to even notice. ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-10-2015#1296821 << that's not the problem, i don't need you to let me in. the problem is that you don't have the means to distinguish between one "humanities" and another humanities. that's the fucking problem. you can sort out a bad engineer in all of five minutes, just ask pointed questions. ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 12-10-2015 04:12:18; phf: pete_dushenski: i don't know how successful kesey was at capturing the mind of a schizophrenic, but he certainly was good at relaying an inner state of an acid head. the movie is something else entirely, but still great, since it's basically jack nicholson playing his only role at his best.
thestringpuller: hdbuck: didn't you contribute to qntra tho?
mike_c: talk to jurov if you don't like the logo
mike_c: they aren't. mircea has a mpex account too
thestringpuller: i didn't realize 500 mn shares were public
jurov: punkman: they are aiming for certain burn rate extent. anything below *and above* it won't cut it
danielpbarron: I don't know about this "acting range" of nicholson, but Chinatown is a great film staring him
assbot: Logged on 12-10-2015 04:06:28; pete_dushenski: still haven't seen the movie with nicholson et al. but it's supposed to be a decent flick, if not the most accurate of transpositions
punkman: I don't understand this ☟︎
phf: thing is, unless bad scifi movies, where you have plot, babes and action, this is clearly targeted at the new nerds. like agile consultants at web startups, who follow nasa twitter? ain't no way this nation ever getting to mars, is my conclusion from watching this movie.
pete_dushenski: but hey, showing hitler's 1935 classic wouldn't break box office records for the umpteenth billion time this year... or would it ?
pete_dushenski: after 'interstellar', which i didn't even pay to see !, there's no way i'd see 'the martian', free or not.
assbot: Logged on 11-10-2015 21:42:49; phf: went to a movie theater to see The Martian. i only ever watch movies when in-wot recommend something enough, so i didn't realize how bad a movie can be, and this was one of the worst movies i've ever seen. snl "you can do anything" skit done with a straightface.. in space! but anyway, they've replaced all the regular rows, with reclining sits, and you can push the button for the sit to recline. i was
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-10-2015#1296487 << bahaha of course all the derps in newspapers and whatever else won't shut up about 'the martian' and how it's 'so wonderful' and 'just as good as the book' that they obviously haven't read. ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 11-10-2015 20:20:41; ben_vulpes: no, they won't do anything to anyone cheating emissions tests.
pete_dushenski: but harper (conservative incumbent) is essentially correct, so no huge shock that he's increased his lead in polls. it's his to lose and he hasn't tripped up yet. not bad after a decade in power, really.
