gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform: if you've information contradicting the stackoverflow question in question please say so. I'm in the middle of building a non-retarted linux distribution and would like to have Emacs
as battle ready
as possible by default.
assbot: Logged on 21-11-2014 01:14:46; asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: text editor experiment << when you build 'emacs', you can select 'use mmap for buffers'
as a compile flag.
gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform: I'm rather curious
as to why you're fixing (for some value of that word - more akin to fixing up a corpse before burial, w/e) up a openbsd box when you've got your own gentoo 'fork'?
mike_c: he better not show up with the same thing
as last year
Luke-Jr: adlai: for me, part of this isn't so much the spam filtering,
as much
as it is trying to combat monoculture
adlai wonders whether it's helpful to look at the potential attacks on bitcoin
as spam to be censored... or
as a challenge to be accepted
fluffypony: it must suck to be universally accepted
as mind-numbingly stupid and yet not have the intelligence to be introspective enough to see it within yourself and change for the better
Luke-Jr: asciilifeform: why?
as long
as it's easy to filter spam, might
as well
diametric: so first,
as a former gentoo dev, Luke-Jr go fuck yourself.
fluffypony: [22:59:44] <+Adlai>Luke-Jr: the question still stands. how does humanity pick a monarch <- well humanity sure
as fuck didn't choose Luke-Jr to be the Bitcoin monarch.
adlai: why wouldn't he,
as a test, to guage how many people are suckers, and will believe what people say from under a fancy hat or behind a pulpit?
Luke-Jr: anyhow, the modernist antipopes can be cited
as using the heresy modernism to justify their other heresies
Luke-Jr: danielpbarron: no Catholic churches today follow the antipopes; those who do follow the antipopes and attend his churches are at risk of being damned, yes (though
as Adlai infers, their culpability depends)
Luke-Jr: undata: if the pope is bad at the same time
as a monarch goes bad, God help us
assbot: Logged on 16-12-2014 19:04:39; Luke-Jr: mats: I don't know how many people here actually have similar political positions
as me.. probably few?
ben_vulpes: "it's easier to hard code configuration into the source than read it
as configuration at runtime"
mats: if something
as inconsequential
as time to sync keeps people from operating a full node
mats: this is not a problem, and won't be a problem for
as long
as the block size remains the same.
danielpbarron: Luke-Jr, so?
as long
as my bank lets me authorize account actions via GPG, sounds good
assbot: The woes of Altcoin, or why there is no such thing
as "cryptocurrencies" pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu. ... (
http://bit.ly/1zt6nge )
Luke-Jr: mats: I don't know how many people here actually have similar political positions
as me.. probably few?
☟︎ BingoBoingo: It's hard to think much of a library that would have
as part of its collection and the like ISBN-13: 978-0672313004
BingoBoingo: They have, but even before then were decaying
as books were replaced by crappy fascimiles of books.
cazalla: they have all converted to infrared ovens yet persist with advertising themselves
as charcoal chicken
cazalla:
as for chicken shops.. you cannot find a single legitimate charchoal chicken shop anywhere here these days
Vexual:
as long
as it doesn't go into the whiskey
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: There were parts where maybe I believe, but yeah the string of inconsistent broke people kinda kills the thing
as a movement.
mats: his followers claim he is not the same
as the bitcointalk scammer
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: In my first stint
as a Teaching Assistant I had Late 40's grad students. Retired military or house wives getting almost always already employed by the university looking for their second or third career
decimation: it's pretty much the same deal
as your idiot-'academic'-woman stereotype
BingoBoingo: At the time Artillery was cooler than fighter Jets ever were, or John McCain's shit eating grin would be on signs
as far south
as Rio
mircea_popescu:
as long
as friction is baked in, the ddos problem fundamentally doesn't exist.
assbot: Logged on 08-12-2014 17:09:27; asciilifeform: where every packet knows who paid for it << those who imagine a wot-routing based net
as a rent-seekers' paradise are mistaken. it is today's net that is a rent-seeker's paradise, where folks who cannot abide ddos must buy bandwidth in vast excess of their normal needs
mircea_popescu: and in connectionless environments such
as ntp or dns even, it would cost nothing to require 2 tits for every tat.
cazalla: if the law permitted us to carry weapons, would've ended much sooner
as well
jurov: later read it
as co.inmate, had double take
mircea_popescu: "democratically elected representatives" are not only dumb
as rocks, but fundamentally unrepresentative.
adlai: bitfinex seems to have the same kind of uncertainty
as mpex
ben_vulpes: how does a fence mark the land
as belonging to any particular man?
badon: There is no such thing
as private land ownership in jurisdictions that tax ownership of land.
BingoBoingo: Yeah, and like every other franchise like that profitable locations are retained
as "corporate stores"
thestringpuller: decimation:
as mircea_popescu once stated on trilema money is the least of his problems (in fact he is already "bankrolled" from drug dealing). his problem is finding competent people.
decimation: they have all been 'laid off' and are now working
as shift managers at starbucks or whatever
thestringpuller:
As mircea_popescu points out in his article on YCombinator (Facebook lining up a billion idiots of investors), I wonder if the the world Mike Judge envisioned in Idiocracy is possible.
mircea_popescu: except their crew and screenwriters suck so bad, the old school
as depicted by them is a scary abomination
mircea_popescu: before that, amateur/gonzo porn killed any respectone would have gotten
as a porn star.
thestringpuller: BingoBoingo: social media marketing has pretty much killed any respect one would get
as a copywriter
thestringpuller: BingoBoingo: that reminds me of huxely. Take all meaning out of a word
as described in his book _Words and Their Meanings_
BingoBoingo remembers finding out that the Alumni association considered anyone who attended for four semesters and Alumni without any regard
as to... graduation
[]bot: Bet placed: 200.00017 BTC for No on "Bitcoin to surpass Berkshire
as an investment"

cazalla: new PM same
as old PM, all useless and illegitimate
gribble: Nick 'ben_vulpes', with hostmask 'ben_vulpes!~user@unaffiliated/benkay', is identified
as user 'ben_vulpes', with GPG key id 2AFA1A9FD2D031DA, key fingerprint 4F7907942CA8B89B01E25A762AFA1A9FD2D031DA, and bitcoin address None
cazalla: st kilda beach is utter shit,
as are most beaches down here
cazalla: same here, sunny, hot
as fuck
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I was still stuck on the form
as well, and yes. It is arts and crafts time
mircea_popescu: i mean... it's there, plain
as day. "we don't do anything useful anyway".
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform> the machine of roughly the same period
as nes but with 'adult' i/o was 'commodore 64.' << Immature criticism, but not everyone likes semen
badon: I've never "invested" in gold bullion. I've bought rare gold coins, and I've flipped gold, but I've never held raw bullion
as an investment.
badon: Right now, I would consider buying palladium again, but silver is much more liquid and reliable
as an investment.
badon: BingoBoingo: I think the way it's going to go this time around is exactly the same
as every other time. First, the precious metals will move (they're dirt cheap now), then the coins.
BingoBoingo: I can endorse Топор
as the bitcoin movie though
Namworld: Mircea, an interesting note about Facebook ads. I think now you can target users by habit, such
as people spending money on Facebook credit to buy stuff. So I guess you can filter out bots/junk traffic and target paying gamers who have money to waste and access to credit cards and so on. Although the use for that is limited I suppose to games, mostly.
BingoBoingo: I mean why abuse a legit wagering operation into an actual mixer when you can trust random derp who advertises a wagering operation
as a mixer
