BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: In
this region
that flavor is still mostly confined
to close proximity
to universities.
mircea_popescu: let us now wonder and inquire and soulsearch as
to why-oh-why
tuberculosis, syphilis and lice are on
the raise in san francisco
mike_c: mod6: you interested in feedback on
this script?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: You only get converted victorian houses
there because your region has a history of being populated.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Happens here
too. Also common are parents who overbought house a decade ago apportioning space
to
their adult spawn
to use as residence. One family I know Daughter has upstairs, son basement, deedholders floor 1. Much of
their subdivisions households have similarly organized.
mircea_popescu: clearly
the american dream has won out :
they live now like
the romanian girls i used
to fuck in
the 80s.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform oyu don't understand how
the world works!!1
mircea_popescu: when your enemy says
this ain't convincing you just scored.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo "I write about finance for Institutional Investor and sport and other stuff for
The Guardian. In January I'll be directing @dissrupt2015."
mircea_popescu: yeah well, apple pie is probably a lot more convincing
than working out.
BingoBoingo: I might have. If I did it was prolly
the rum fountain episode
that so enamoured
TheNewDeal
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> what is a 'croc' ? << Plastic clog footwear sold in mall walkways. Watchstand I worked at has a croc dealer as a neighbor.
Things seem practical as an alternative shoe for some kinds of boating and little else.
lobbes: mircea_popescu:
thanks for exposing me
to
tlp. I especially enjoyed 'hipsters on foodstamps'
mircea_popescu: (it's almost exactly
the same, minus
the exact cutouts - much like
the recent "3d fad" is exactly
the 80s same
thing, rehashed"
mircea_popescu: if you recall
the soviet vairant, you know why it's so funny.
mircea_popescu: except, it won't be men in usg-blue shirts humbled before
tshirted croc wearing crowd,
mircea_popescu: "The #OWS demo wants
to see powerful men humbled before
the
t-shirted,
tweeting masses, it allows
them
the fantasy
that it could some day happen here, which it won't because
the propaganda worked."
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: If Matonis is more comfortable
tweeting qntra articles and hanging around
the margins, he knows
the invite is out
there. As much as
the Vessennes episode seemed
to burn him I can not fault him if he wants
to
take some
time before committing
to allegiances in
the future. Especially since being older, but not yet a codger he likely has ropes
to contend with.
mircea_popescu: <ben_vulpes> okay! i'm off for a few - going
to hack on deedbot with
trinque nao < ?! lol
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
The invitation's been extended on a platform he monitors (Twatter). If he wants in it is his
turn
to move.
BingoBoingo prefers making
these bets on
the shady books for
the purpose of rescuing BTC from less responsible hands
BingoBoingo: Well Anything less
than 10 when facing Serena has been +ev for me. I
tend
to bet just enough
to raise
the projected winning
to around and even BTC.
This
time
though I went smaller
BingoBoingo doesn't want
to endorse any shady non-BitBet book in chan
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: I got in at about 5.5
time my stake
this afternoon.
ben_vulpes: okay! i'm off for a few - going
to hack on deedbot with
trinque nao
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Just beat
the other Williams sister
too.
ben_vulpes: i must confess
to not having worked
through ascii's hateful
tar yet
ben_vulpes: <nubbins`> straight up, do
this properly & foundation could significantly fill its coffers << hey might not even have
to foot
the bill for con4 whaddaya
think mod6 ;P
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: It's
that something
that works on one *nix
the right way should work on most of
them.
mike_c: i blame
the foundation. i'm following your noob guide.
ben_vulpes: or perhaps message is
that deb is not sane nix
BingoBoingo: <ben_vulpes>
this is why i pushed for deb 6 as our build
target << I
though a lesson of Pogo is cheap was any sane *nix is
target
ben_vulpes: i'm reluctant
to include patches for deb 6 in
the "fundation"'s domain.
mike_c: i'll deal with
that
tomorrow. one problem at a
time :)
ben_vulpes: how are you handling
the ghost vulnerability?
ben_vulpes: this is why i pushed for deb 6 as our build
target
mike_c: or did you have
to download it directly
ben_vulpes: mike_c: in my experiments i had
to manually download
the 4.8 sources.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Yes Serena can win, but... odd suggest otherwise even
though I'd prefer a different opponent
to bet on.
mike_c: hey mod6, were you able
to get libdb4.8 with apt-get?
ben_vulpes: although interestingly recently
the asshats were making fun of linux committers for calling "large refactors" "antisocial"
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> [] looking at recent releases, found
that
the whole orphans mechanism was screwed with
to
the point of unrecognizability << most everything
BingoBoingo: Odds are favorable for betting
the underdog.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Well,
the Serena William match starts in about an hour. Australian Open semifinals. Plenty of
time
to find a shady book.
pete_dushenski: or at least
the kind of (young) man
that finds claims more interesting when
there's something at stake
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Nah, funding obvious badbets is what kicks
the Bitbet mixer into action. And BitBet mixer is best mixer
pete_dushenski: just plunk down a coin on one side or
the other and away you go
BingoBoingo anticipates
though a Matonis submits a piece
to qntra BitBet would fall in
the BadBets pile.
BingoBoingo wonders when he will realize... he can submit writing
too as he atones for
that unfortunate Foundation episode...
BingoBoingo: So many mega lulz in
the Barret Brown pile
trinque reaches
the
top of
the pile, switches
to deedbot dev
mircea_popescu: all
the pissy handlers. all
the impatient phone calls.
the embarassment of
the recent fed paper.
mircea_popescu: and
to
think,
two years of effort, gone. all
those "salaries", suddenly unjustified.
mircea_popescu: they hadn't anticipated exactly how easy it is
to get killed doing it.
mircea_popescu: well, no, actually yhat's it :
they have been
trying
to break it, and irretrievably so.
mircea_popescu: it was
to be fixed "eventually". power rangers still not got around
to it.
