mircea_popescu: i don't follow the logic ? are they that big or aren't they that big ?

asciilifeform: i'ma sign an' post these with the rest of the thing.
asciilifeform in other noose, generating coupla 10k test vectors for ffa ch14b. theory is great, and 'test can reveal presence of bugs but not absence'(tm)(r), but imho gotta have these
BingoBoingo: Whorehouse around the corner also still in business, "Fabrique de Pasta" on the corner however is not.
BingoBoingo: Yeah, Tits even appears to be growing
asciilifeform: already living with having to make own fucking arithmetron.
BingoBoingo: Should have went to Pitty Shoes before they closed up shop
asciilifeform walks on just this side of the razor's edge of 'fucking, i'ma make own shoes' ☟︎
mircea_popescu: yes, well, i ain't gonna buy that.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i have no use for the synthetic "textile" bs.
asciilifeform: ( talk about longevity. turns out , PALs/GALs still used in all sortsa critical systems, errywhere, from nuke plant to bulldozer )
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo yeah, let them either earn their walking legs or go under.
asciilifeform: the vendor, 'bp microsystems', interestingly still in biz. and STILL offers the dos proggy for dload!
asciilifeform: speaking of 'made in usa' weird : asciilifeform finally hunted down a rom burner that'll do those PALs : it's a 5kg behemoth that's driven by... dos box, via parallel port.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-21 21:43 mircea_popescu: if you think about it, no other possible solution than "we weren't defeated by events, we merely withdrew into imagination"
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-21#1882615 << the ameritards 'retreated into imagination' when they gave up industry. it aint precisely news. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: Anyways, seasonality is a helluva thing. Chicken doesn't get that cheap here.
BingoBoingo: Last year this time a 100 peso note was roughly similar to a 4 USD bill. Now the same 100 peso note has almost fallen to be a 3 USD bill.
asciilifeform: i was about to say
BingoBoingo: pesos that is
BingoBoingo going to primarly be consuming Lechón as the dietary protein while it's in season. Shit's running ~200-300 per kilo.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-21 21:58 mircea_popescu: simply defund the entire thing. not like it does anything useful ~for trump~. 100% janissary corps.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-21#1882622 << it's exactly janissary corps. ( and so i suppose we'll know that he tried if his head ends up 'defunded' like the last d00d's ) ☝︎
asciilifeform: ( tried the 'premium grades', it's == crapola but for idjits, like most ameri-'premium' materiel )
a111: Logged on 2018-12-21 21:56 mircea_popescu: in other minutia, i just took possession of ~custom made house slippers~. because you can't fucking buy leather slippers anymore for the love of fuck, "plastic should be enough for everyone".
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-21#1882620 << funnily enuff, brother had slippers from su, lasted ~decade; whereas today i buy visually-identical chinesium that's good for ~6mo. tops ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2018-12-21 21:38 mircea_popescu: hopefully soon to be permanent, that shutdown.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-21#1882613 << soon as bernanketron runs outta green ink -- then yes ☝︎
BingoBoingo: Which... why not conspiracy theory a junta of county sheriffs
BingoBoingo: The popular MAGA-redditista theory appears to be Trump playing to take intelligence community shit to give to Immigration and Customs Enforcement as new A-team
BingoBoingo: Well, good chunk of CIA.DEA.NSA.FBI revenue is their own drug trafficking operations (though apparently the Chinese are now beating them in the opiates market)
mircea_popescu: simply defund the entire thing. not like it does anything useful ~for trump~. 100% janissary corps. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: by "cia" i mean 100% of government-sponsored "intelligence community", including all "agencies" and the respective subreddits.
mircea_popescu: in other minutia, i just took possession of ~custom made house slippers~. because you can't fucking buy leather slippers anymore for the love of fuck, "plastic should be enough for everyone". ☟︎
BingoBoingo: Given both Bush and Hussein Bahamas are CIA legacy admits, it is possible to reread Snowden as a possible CIA plant sent to knock down ambitions of growing competitor NSA
mircea_popescu: since you speak of nixon (whose principal problem upon assuming office for the first time was 'how to limit influence of pantsuits over at cia')
a111: Logged on 2018-12-21 19:50 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: d00d won't even use the few buttons that still connected to anyffing. (e.g. could've easily pardoned those derps of his that the pantsuits recently jailed )

mircea_popescu: pretty much the only way left to go, to these ~irrelevant~ old men with their imaginarily valuable bolix stack : they're cordially invited to withdraw into eternal slumber, like fucking moses. in three to five thousand years some virgin in rural bumfuck somewhere can quote to us "what the truth REALLY WAS 'according to the democratic party'".
mircea_popescu: hopefully soon to be permanent, that shutdown. ☟︎
asciilifeform: but instead, 'biz as usual', no tanks on street, only the garbage truck (which is late again..)
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: if sad old man had even 1 squad of actual loyal men, there's be tanks bulldozing harvard and rape camps for the http://trilema.com/2013/rape-is-fun-or-lets-fuck-up-adria-richards etc
asciilifeform: ( iirc somewhere north of a thousand, just in warsaw )
asciilifeform: even the gassed jews, to this day infamous for boarding the trains 'orderly', nailed moar germans than this.
asciilifeform: cattle dun revolt, and castrated cattle dun even stampede. during obummer reign, police pushed, what, 10mil ameri-sads out of 'their' houses, which left to rot; and at cost of what, 1, 2 dead sheriffs ?
asciilifeform: presumably it's satisfying, tho i cannot fathom how.
BingoBoingo: As far as I can tell other than the young Barron, his children ain't all that loyal
asciilifeform: so stuck pushing the ones that make various arcade noises.
asciilifeform: d00d knows that if he tries to push buttons that are nominally connected to sumthing, will 'slip in bathtub' and replaced with bush III or whoever.
asciilifeform: iirc i said this after end of yr1 of trumpreich, 'guess what, still can't tell who is in white house by looking out of my window'. and can say it again at end of 2nd yr. machine is built for continuation of 'biz as usual' at all costs, and will work while it has physically with what.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: 'his' judges aint even his in any particular sense. ( observe that he had to appoint 'respectable' derps, rather than e.g. his own children or whatever loyals , to court )
asciilifeform: there's 0 on paper to keep him from 'you can have all the freisler trials you like, i'ma pardon erryone'
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: d00d won't even use the few buttons that still connected to anyffing. (e.g. could've easily pardoned those derps of his that the pantsuits recently jailed ) ☟︎
BingoBoingo: Headed for Andrew Jackon style breakdown if Trump gets a third pick
BingoBoingo: ^ Well, the clock is ticking
asciilifeform: trinque: mcfood-eaters will 'revolt' (by whining on reddit, or, in best case, oregon-ranching around) , and even that strictly if mcfood supply interrupted.
asciilifeform: usg.red wants withdraw from viet^H^Hganistan like usg.blue wants withdraw from syria like flea wants dog to be washed.
trinque: chairman orange has already said "half the country will revolt" if dethroned. wouldn't mind to see what if, not that I'm holding my breath.
asciilifeform: hey it's how they dethroned nixon. ( the unforgivable 'crime' was not the burglar derpery, but withdrawal from vietnam )
trinque: they need to start rumbling about impeachment next, get him properly incensed.
trinque: threatening the longest government shutdown ever, what a guy.

asciilifeform: i still suspect that proof won't 'Officially Count' cuz 'not pdf.' (tho hey, i have a coupla uniturds, and even a lolcat!111 )
asciilifeform: ( not even in the ridiculously 100bux/copy oxford press 'finite precision number systems and arithmetic' backbreaker for chip maker folx )
asciilifeform: it's funny, or perhaps only to asciilifeform , that one can buy a kilometre of dead tree, in multiple langs, re 'crypto', and not find this illustration therein.
mircea_popescu: i think so.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: possibly in the orig 'bitcoin corrupts'(tm) thread ?
mircea_popescu: i dunno, original portion of the way sword cuts thing seems much older than 2018.
a111: Logged on 2018-08-15 14:52 mircea_popescu: incidentally, since we're doing lost arts, where the fuck did i state the pantsuit's problem of integration (ie, that pantsuitism doesn't stand a chance in the republic because the republic integrates it) in the terminology that "this sword cuts for them a portion of the way and for us the whole way" ? ie, that they're always dependent on state, whatever shit they come up with gotta be carefully ~stopped~ on various slippery
asciilifeform: intel managed to reintroduce log eggog !
asciilifeform: intel did 'even better', by rolling the field back to ~before time of babbage~, who, recall, managed to eat ~20% of brit empire budget simply on promise of baking ~log table~ without eggogs ( and , arguably in a kind of 19th c. bolix affair, succeeded but overran cost to death )
asciilifeform: that's what peddling 'just as good as actual cheese' does, in the end -- sets the table for 'hey i have a just-as-just-as-good , with flashier gui and endorsement from ibm' etc.
asciilifeform: from my pov it's hilariously funny, that rms et al ~set the table~ for microshit.
asciilifeform: ( and in same interval went from aston-martin to toyota price. and could've proceeded to motorcycle price if the co were run by smart folx.)
asciilifeform: lm was 'expensive' cuz hand-sewn from 74xxx. but just 4 yrs after rms went off to derp with unix, thing fit on single crystal, just like i386, it's the item in asciilifeform's vivisection table in fact.
asciilifeform: ( certainly not the 2 ~billion~ intel crapola put for tlb cache so that microshit can be slightly less molasses )
asciilifeform: it dun take THAT many moar transistors to build non-overflowable-arithm etc. iron.
asciilifeform: oughta have instead died trying to close that mg embrasure.
asciilifeform: and, like mircea_popescu , i also dun buy the excuse that 'lispm was expensive, i HAD to write kraft cheese for cheap micros'
mircea_popescu: too busy whining about imaginary laptops and inane bs like that.
mircea_popescu: here is sound "just like rms", but why ? cuz where's the real one keks.
mircea_popescu: i can absolutely see the angle.
asciilifeform: ( on actual lispm, in working condition, there was ~no such thing as 'crash' )
asciilifeform: and , not unrelatedly, asciilifeform sees the great crime of rms , to specifically be his pushing of 'kraft cheese' emacs + toolchains as 'just as good as real thing', witness e.g. https://archive.is/ws2qk#selection-5591.110-5591.271
mircea_popescu: aha! that was my exact line also. "glhf, bsoemacs"
a111: Logged on 2018-11-03 00:16 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-02#1869016 << this is prolly a neato item but (to the possible surprise of some people) asciilifeform doesn't 'live in emacs' in the sense of using it for things that ain't files-on-disk editing
asciilifeform: for instance, asciilifeform has '9000' processes on this and other boxen, where uses 'screen+bash+etc for tards' even though theoretically 'could emacs' ( see also e.g. http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-03#1869024 ) , because they ~must not crash~ and emacs is unthreaded and hosable ☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: in point of fact there are serious design flaws in emacs that make dog/flea separation extremely difficult. but iirc we already had that thread not long ago.
mircea_popescu: in other vaguely related line, person recently pointed out "you know, your screen+vi&bash combo is almost like emacs for retards", to much private merriment. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: or not see, either way, i'm just saying, "no, it's not that i spit because i do not use ; but vice versa".
asciilifeform: some people dunlike dogs, for instance, and refer to'em as armored personnel carriers for fleas. in this case so happens that i like dog. so interested in whether mircea_popescu was going from a 'dogs, who needs'em' angle or spotted flea in particular.
mircea_popescu: you asked me if i spit on things merely because i do not use them ; i explained teh reasoning thereof. i dun expect you to ~do~ something as a result of this, besides i guess saying "oh, i see what your issue is"
asciilifeform: ( he's pretty close to full-bore snoar naodays, tho. i delouse that linkbar not nearly as often as oughta, beginning to suspect )
mircea_popescu: so more power to you.
mircea_popescu: if nobody ever tells greenblatt "do not play on monkey team", what, is greenblat supposed to what, figure it out all on his own ?
asciilifeform: i can't think of any reason to tolerate. but i also dun have a from-the-ground replacement for emacs per se.
