ben_vulpes: decimation: next time i'm in london i expect to see all sorts of historical engineering bits
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: you ever heard of TurboSquid?
mircea_popescu: i got more harems than horowitz.
mircea_popescu: "Now, supposing a financial oligarchy has seized control of the country, and, since it can't control its own appetites" such nonsense. what appetites ?
decimation: ben_vulpes: if you ever end up in london you can visit Herr Brunel's tunnel
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: what about the future assets pipeline? that going to be rolled straight into beta server?
decimation: I think it wants to fail because it cannot imagine otherwise
thestringpuller: lol mircea_popescu there is not going to be a test server for experimental anymore?
decimation: yeah but I don't think it 'wants to fail' because of a secret cabal of financiers
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's at least rethorically seductive, this theory. "the us is basically emo, it wants to fail."
mircea_popescu: and that's quite similar : the soviets were impopular in 1990, more so than in 2010.
mircea_popescu: you know, berlin women got raped by the soviets mostly.
mircea_popescu: being anti-nazi was the thing in 1943. today... would you not fuck a nazi ?
decimation: the point is that being anti-nazi is easy and super popular today
decimation: Johannes Gross, one of the smartest German journalists, wrote: The longer the third reich is dead, the greater the resistance against hitler and his ilk becomes"
mircea_popescu: im not even sure what that's supposed to mean
decimation: http://www.andreas-unterberger.at/2013/05/buecherverbrennungen-damals-und-heute/ < good quote "Johannes Gross, einer der klügsten deutschen Journalisten, schrieb: „Je länger das Dritte Reich tot ist, umso stärker wird der Widerstand gegen Hitler und die Seinen.”"
decimation: what about $bil's of bezzle? that helps too
mircea_popescu: lol. then again, egypt was a military dictatorship under the mubarak dude, who wrested egypt in a coup from the... previous military dictator.
trinque: mod6: lol I filled the disk doing an emerge -uDN @world
mircea_popescu: meh only takes the latest one huh
mod6: cool. thanks for your work on deedbot :]
mod6: np. but you were able to verify the sig of the Monthy Address yourself right? I checked it and it verified for me just fine...
trinque: I'll fix it and then publish that for you
mod6: that i just imported to deedbot
trinque: what key signed that?
trinque: interesting, let me see if I can verify that signature myself
trinque: I also have a mental ticket for that
trinque: mod6: same deal there, add .txt
trinque: needs the non HTML page
trinque: I'm going to make it just deedbot- http://dpaste/whatever.txt too
mod6: i think the whole thing is fine
trinque: though I can take eating key fingerprints as a feature request
trinque: mod6: the pubkey itself
trinque: mod6: you'll also need to add your key with add-key the same way
trinque: I'm going to fix that in a bit
trinque: mod6: for now you'll need to stick things on dpaste to get deedbot to eat them
mod6: sweet, thx
trinque: mod6: they go out once an hour to deedbot.org
mod6: how do you view the deeds?
asciilifeform: establishment, and that pressure to succeed might sporadically give rise to improved performance, leading to at least a few instances of success. But if in fact failure is no problem at all, and if instead there was some sort of pressure to fail, then we would see exactly what we do see.'
asciilifeform: 'Looking at this broad landscape of failure, there are two ways to interpret it. One is that the US officialdom is the most incompetent one imaginable, and can't ever get anything right. But another is that they do not succeed for a distinctly different reason: they don't succeed because results don't matter. You see, if failure were a problem, then there would be some sort of pressure coming from somewhere or other within the
assbot: ClubOrlov: Financial collapse leads to war ... ( http://bit.ly/1wNLSrH )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu, others: http://cluborlov.blogspot.com/2015/03/financial-collapse-leads-to-war.html << on the subject of usg's habit of losing wars
scoopbot: New post on Trilema by Mircea Popescu: http://trilema.com/2015/no-such-labs-snsa-february-2015-statement/
decimation: !up teward
cazalla: just because you missed some earlier, doesn't mean you can repeat newer ones to make up for it scoopbot
decimation: plus there are various databuses the connect the plane. supposedly on new planes they are moving to a special form of ethernet, strangely enough
decimation: the cockpit is mostly 'remote front panels' in modern planes to my knowledge
asciilifeform like a t0t4l n00b, always assumed that junk lives in the cockpit, under the dashboard
decimation: in theory, if you knew what you were doing, you could break into that bay and 'pilot' the plane from there
decimation: skip to 5:00 to see the portable terminal that can be connected to the equipment for in-flight troubleshooting
decimation: there's some conspiracy theorists who believe that the missing malaysian 777 might have been a heist pulled off by guys who busted into the engineering bay and messed with the electronics
decimation: note that it is placed in the first class cabin
decimation: speaking of which https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2S-Cggs1jOo < video tour of a 777 engineering/electronics bay while in flight
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: dunno how i missed that
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: b-n should be c-n in turdogram
asciilifeform: programmers (esp. ones who see it on the net one time, rather than using seriously) exquisitely hate it. the users, on the other hand, whose 'boeing' stays up and who never have to learn that the program exists at all - love it.
asciilifeform: ada is also used in the banking sector (the only countries for which i have strong clues of this being the fact are ch and ua)
asciilifeform: (there's a 'bleeding edge' version pushed out by ada foundation, which slowly merges back into gcc, as i understand. that version is also gpl, but the standard lib is also gpl - unlike the gcc ada, where it is lgpl)
asciilifeform: as for the compiler, it's been part of vanilla gcc for years.
asciilifeform: decimation: but it appears that the thing is genuinely popular among the very small but very well-paid set of folks who write programs that -actually have to work-
decimation: I guess it flows with your 'foreign warez' theory
decimation: asciilifeform: it amuses me that there are fans of ada in ru
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: turdogram sent
mircea_popescu: <jurov> these heteros..... << lmao jurov wins
mike_c: pretty easy to get it translated. i'll take care of it if you'd like.
BingoBoingo: So... Anyone here know chinese? Good enought to translate a Hand complete police report? ☟︎
mike_c: maybe i won't get the worst price of everyone for the conference.
mircea_popescu: and on the same line, http://33.media.tumblr.com/8bfd385ccdbdc65f71e0edc5013a3e00/tumblr_n67918ggcM1sprsiqo2_400.gif

kakobrekla: just like many times before
mircea_popescu: lol btc trading 270s ?
mircea_popescu: im happy i found this chan >D
mircea_popescu: also the usians ?
mircea_popescu: you think they're ugly because they eat shit ?
ascii_field: and if they invented food in china, they could also make them
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell gabriel_laddel you know, japanese chicks and chicks of obvious caucasian parentage do not count. we're talking chinese here.
gabriel_laddel: Alright, I'm off to lunch.
ascii_field: (does anyone other than me care?)
ascii_field: for gentoo/ada folks: that overlay actually -works-
mircea_popescu: or that.
kakobrekla: mircea_popescu> trinque register it so it can selfvoice. < normally chanserv ops bots
kakobrekla: missed all the fun
kakobrekla: eh the truck just stopped
trinque: yes that
mircea_popescu: not clear what those words mean, so let's be explicit : as far as the website is concerned, the preferred display is for every block that included a bundle to be listed, clickable, lead to bundle. to the right of it, enumerated, the individual deeds that were therein bundled
trinque: by publish I mean, publish the hash txn
trinque: mircea_popescu: ah so publish as a bundle, but then upload the parts separate?
mircea_popescu: trinque http://deedbot.org/345887-1KCNmvz54BygVgDd1PiAVaBjrYQE8A2imH.txt << this bundled display model is no good. one clickable entry per item plox.
ascii_field: (i'd still prefer to mount the cpu here)
ascii_field: if i'm satisfied with result, will have them place the passives for the initial run
mircea_popescu: !rate deedbot- 1 it's the deed bot.
mircea_popescu: disabled people are actually (rightfully) esteemed in the trade.
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: I mean, Germans are "generally stupid" too, but when compared to e.g. disabled people.
ascii_field: i'll spoil a little of it: manufacturing samples arriving sometime late this wk. or early next
mircea_popescu: and historically, they're mostly hard at work trying to stomp those exceptions out.
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel they are generally stupid, it's the exceptions that save them
trinque: doesn't seem like the cold war ever ended
trinque: gabriel_laddel: surely that cold war paranoia still exists at the upper ranks
