mike_c: i don't quite get this theory that they aren't actually selling the coins.
asciilifeform: ding to the story getting told publicly).'
asciilifeform: f someone like Emwazi, whom MI5 had been chasing for years, can simply disappear, only to reappear as the man beheading western journalists (though technically, the videos never show him doing so), then it suggests the entire dragnet is least effective when it is most needed. The Express’ ill-defined sources appear to want to tell a story about SIGINT succeeded rather then explain how it is that SIGINT failed (at least accor
asciilifeform: 'British intelligence sources are now claiming that the SIGINT hunt for Emwazi preceded the HUMINT one, and also claiming that a SIGINT clue — and the related SIGINT trail that clue uncovered — provided the breakthrough in IDing him. Which is almost certainly bullshit. But notable bullshit, for two reasons. First, because the current story — that the UK lost Emwazi — poses really big problems for the dragnet. Because i
asciilifeform: cazalla: typo: ullbricht
punkman: jurov, ah good to know
jurov: ^ as per above, it does not affect organic molecules. just numbs the smell cells, I guess. ☟︎
assbot: Ozone Generators that are Sold as Air Cleaners | Indoor Air | US Environmental Protection Agency ... ( http://bit.ly/18mqbsC )
jurov: we were talking about kako's ozone generator
BingoBoingo: Well, not if you get to much. What harm can the occasional whiff of it do?
asciilifeform: whole point of electrostatic cleaner is to make dust stick to things (in a well-constructed one, the 'thing' is the filter inside)
asciilifeform: btw if the wall was black, it was working
asciilifeform has not tried the recipe, but invites anyone who has, to post.
asciilifeform: but in the shape pictured, the output mesh is grounded
asciilifeform: when configured as 'air cleaner' they tend to piss out ozone
kakobrekla: it made the wall around it all back.
kakobrekla: i had one of such 'ionization' clean air gadgets running for some time some years ago
kakobrekla: but not the one i use.
asciilifeform: incidentally, whatever happened to electrodynamic fans ?
kakobrekla: iirc that particular shot is pwm controlled
kakobrekla: but the working curve
kakobrekla: heres a few of the more interesting pwm ones; http://shrani.si/f/3M/2d/4N2Jzpz2/profiles.png ☟︎
kakobrekla: most common seems to be around 500 or 600 rpm
kakobrekla: most of them have min way above 200
asciilifeform: you found ones where this was below 200 ?
kakobrekla: pwm fans have this hardcoded so to speak
kakobrekla: but the fans have a minimum speed at which they will actually turn
kakobrekla: thats not the problem
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: can always solder a controller inline with the cord
kakobrekla: but then second problem is running them slow enough - which only bq did as far as my tests went
asciilifeform: love'em, got at least 7 in just this room
kakobrekla: yeah these are great.
BingoBoingo: Perfectly good occasions exist to compare bulldog and rhinoceros
asciilifeform: or were you doing a cubometres/decibel thing
kakobrekla: i was testing for low rpm quietness where noise from bearings is the problem, noting else
kakobrekla: i dont know from the top of my head which one bq uses but i bought 50 high end fans a year+ ago and tested them all
asciilifeform: (fluid bearings used in fans, that is)
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: iirc, there's exactly one producer of fluid bearings, and everybody else gets them
asciilifeform: (tip: if anyone else has a 'liebert' ups, and replacing fan, don't throw out old one. you will need to snip&solder the connector.)
cazalla: and fuck, i wish it was summer, first week of autumn and the mornings are already cold and dark
thestringpuller: cazalla: thousand fly eyes
cazalla: DigitalCurrency (@DCCCertified) favorited one of your Tweets! <<< bwahaha they don't even follow the links to see what it is, just fav away for tities lol
asciilifeform: put a 'pabst' fluid bearing 80mm in there. golden toilet, should last.
asciilifeform: this was the useful kind.
BingoBoingo: Oh, I though maybe this was the sort of fan you replace for insufficient adoration
asciilifeform: (it's a 'double-conversion' monster that runs inverter 100% of the time)
asciilifeform: it was getting to the point that i could hear it in other rooms
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: esp. since this was the master ups
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: you must take good care of your things
lobbes: mike_c: you have better eyes than I

adlai: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=05-03-2015#1042884 << they don't want your usary scrip, isiscoin uses PoAu ☝︎
mircea_popescu: criticized ending the dam project to protect the lousewort; Time magazine called the idea "downright silly" in 1977. While thought extinct at the time the dam was proposed, it was rediscovered in 1976 by C.D. Richards while doing surveys to determine the environmental impact of the dam.
mircea_popescu: Because it is endangered and endemic to the area, development projects have been restricted to preserve its habitat. For example, the Dickey-Lincoln dam, a $227 million hydroelectric project proposed on the upper Saint John River in 1974, was deauthorized by Congress in 1986 after years of study, because the dam would have flooded 88,000 acres (360 km2) of Maine forest and severely reduced the lousewort's habitat.
