mircea_popescu: the whole "can't prosecute me for drunk driving, i popped a magic pill" angle was just too much to swallow
mircea_popescu: hm. i thought surely we did the "Secret alcohol antidote" thing.
ben_vulpes: i'm still waiting for the case where the sting agent claims to be 18 but then the dood gets locked up because he never checked her id or some shit and the agent was really playing a fifteen year old who was just pretending to be an eighteen year old
ben_vulpes: "I wanted to see if he was still up to his old tricks"
asciilifeform: and i finally can picture how
mircea_popescu: i imagine the idea with browser stuff is you just save the javascript. as close to "compile locally, fucktard" as the redditard generation can possibly get -- guaranteed success through a browser-compiler of approximately-integer language.
cruciform: well, I'd like to get my BTC out of Armory ASAP
cruciform: I'll be ordering a FG soon; got some casino dice for now

cruciform: I look at cards and hope they're good
cruciform: I've been reading the logs+your guys' blogs
asciilifeform: i have a 9-port pcie card, same thing
asciilifeform: the part i find interesting is that it is -- apparently -- impossible to use a current pc in the way, e.g., pdp11 was used - as box with two dozen + serial ttys hanging off
mircea_popescu: tis exactly as i recall it from the mid 2000s.
mircea_popescu: i expect more people complain of the chip color than of this.

asciilifeform: re qntra, i get a ERR_NAME_RESOLUTION_FAILED -- which is not consistent with the 'box finally thrown out' picture
shinohai: I can't reach qntra either, get SERVFAIL reply
mircea_popescu: i suppose this actually enacts a fundamental of "parsimony" in estimation of all ideal objects.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i put it to you, that if such a thing should exist, the head is at fault not the thing.
mircea_popescu: "things that i can fuck", "things that i can understand", "things i can talk about". many kinds of things.
asciilifeform: i am not convinced of there being involvement of 'things' : strings have not even the reality anchor of phlogiston.
mircea_popescu: and i suppose the evident similarity between dirac delta and "whichever unnamed abstractions you support your estimation of string theory" is also striking to you ?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo speaking of fna, lulz of all time : i have a wall mounted wide screen. as you can imagine, it is THE hottest bit of real estate as far as gecko is concerned (very safe, nice and warm at night, plenty of hidey places, a villa!)
mircea_popescu: i'm not sure it has anything baked in above and beyond, "here's a billion we don't know what to do with, because we won it at the social mobility lottery, can anyone halp ?" resulting in an ad-hoc, informally specified, poorly directed and utterly undesigned effort to produce words and "numbers" in exchange for expense accounts.
mircea_popescu: i thought it's getting banned.
mircea_popescu: if i ran the bank supervisor would have pulled licenses of anyone engaging in that shit.
mircea_popescu: i dun think it has anything to do with anything other than credit.
a111: Logged on 2017-09-07 03:07 asciilifeform: s clearly an area of tremendous importance. In fact, I had to switch to an engineering department to work on it, because physics departments are broke and enamoured with ex-string theorist well-fare projects like topological insulators....'
trinque: deedbot wallet ready when I perform a privkey generation ritual after fg final test.

mircea_popescu: the ~only function of those flicks was to provide rage escapism for adult blue collar males who were aware of the mafia through daily interaction, but liked to imagine some kind of separation, "if those scumbags that are totally not my betters ever raped my wife and daughter, why i... i... i'd totally slyvester seagall all over them!"
mircea_popescu: bonus points for a text full of "I" as FUCKING IF he's me, except of course we don't get to even see the fucktard's fucking name aywhere.
mircea_popescu: well cuz that's what i needed!
mircea_popescu: i expect they called in sick and spent the rest of the day in a lavatory.
mircea_popescu: in other such lulz, had a team of professionals (3 sorry looking kids) from super-duper local isp do a bunch of cable laying. leaving aside that the job included climbing a 3 story bare metal outside ladder to get to the roof, which was a first for all of 'em, the place itself... well, the girls were dressed, exceptionally, but i only realised by and by that there's a lot of shit such as ball gags laying about, bullwhips hang
mircea_popescu: i have nfi.
ben_vulpes: "i prefer signal, it at least maintains the pretense of end-to-end encryption"
BingoBoingo: I hear the DIA endorses making a 5x5 game board with the options as squares, ripping a rooster's head off and choosing the square the rooster dies on
mircea_popescu: i r overwhelmt.
mircea_popescu: how shall i ever manage to choose among the usgistani offerings of totally-secure-alt-tors for the post-tor era (introduced by the not-trilema theguardian!!!)
BingoBoingo: Oh, I though it was still dependapotamusing on Kurds for that
mircea_popescu: i personally find it hysterical that the engrish lulz farm manage to write the obituary in engrish as well!
mircea_popescu: oh i c
a111: Logged on 2017-09-20 23:38 mircea_popescu: phf i hope you're taking notes lol
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-22#1716716 << i'm with asciilifeform on that one, there are worse fates, but this bit was lulzy: "I'm going to a self-defense course which is going to be tailored to de-arming people, so if I do come across that situation at least I'm prepared for it." i mean, that joke is so old SNL made a skit ☝︎
asciilifeform: i added it
jhvh1: BingoBoingo: another name for da black man, usually the southern ones, kinda like looty for example, at least they kinda know how to speak english [ex:] [racamoni] 10:35 am: I dislike the spics more than bluegums[driver99] 10:37 am: almost hit one last night.[driver99] 10:37 am: bluegum [/ex]
jhvh1: BingoBoingo: blue in color. Used to differentiate from the more common pink-gummed black person.

[ex:] Billy-Bob: No officer, I ain't robbed the liquor store. It was a damn blue-gum what did it. (2 more messages)
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: on one hand, yes, anally rebuked by pirates, knifed and thrown overboard. on other hand, i can think of worse fates than this, e.g. living 50 yrs 'uneventfully' in 'civilized' usgsuburbia
BingoBoingo: "Emma Kelty repeated a warning from a Peruvian guide in tongue-and-cheek fashion. "I will have my boat stolen and I will be killed too," she tweeted. "Nice."" ... "Back in February, Kelty—who became the sixth woman to ski solo to the South Pole in January—told the BBC that surviving encounters with "people who organ-harvest and rob and fire guns" was "half the challenge" of her Amazon adventure." ... And the climax
lobbes: I'd like to submit to the court my request for unbanning my bot's IP on the grounds that I have exorcised the insanity in my code that caused the spamvalanche the other day.
mircea_popescu: im not sure i saw the film actually

a111: Logged on 2015-01-13 18:05 mircea_popescu: lizard empire very large, very porous, generally i get the good bits before they fully propagated even.
mircea_popescu: trinque "The prospect of our own NSA, CIA and FBI << the "our own" bit is the lulziest. pantsuit actually thought they own something in this world. and not just ourdemocracy, at that. i suppose the scum actually sees itself as rightful inheritors of like cultural europe and etcetera.
jurov: and due to that, i also missed qntra distribution, next time someone please kick me
jurov: Hi all, whoever placed orders via coinbr last 2 weeks, they were not forwarded to mpex. I was notified, fixed the problem, cancelled the orders and restored all balances.
ben_vulpes: microclime apparently extends up where i live now as well
asciilifeform: dness shift operations; and ergo all shifts must consist of ffawordness shift ops, as i described in http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-20#1716343 . ☝︎
asciilifeform: !~later tell apeloyee i studied your algo, it (aside from truly massive cost, that would annihilate savings from newton, or barrett, or just about any other trick) ~still leaks~, because shifting by >wordsize is a fundamentally different op from shifting <wordsize; and the only way for this to not be true is for all shifts to happen as a series of wordsize shifts; and a shift by ffawidth-1 (max shiftness) would then consist of ffawor ☟︎
trinque: not what I'm asking. my nodes are current at the moment too.
mircea_popescu: i dunno about them luxuries, it was kinda small...
shinohai: I should like to have one of these cigars and nice bottle of Pernod Fils to enjoy with it.

BingoBoingo: "No!" I thought, "It won’t be long and I won’t be the only able-bodied man on the street with belted pants. How am I supposed to fend off this army of punks then?""
