mircea_popescu: i just don't see any cause to suspect this is what they;'re talking about
wyrdmantis: BingoBoingo: i don't know, what do you mean with Middle west? Europe?
mircea_popescu: then again i also didn't know telegram is some sort of chatroom, so.

wyrdmantis: http://xtnodes.com/ italian derps are HOORAYing for a 10% surge in a few hours... i don't even...
asciilifeform: (can't recall this shit being in there earlier this year)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i have yet to fully grasp how this particular arithmetic handicap works. what is the mental process like, whereby schmuck doesn't wake up to the fact that 'get 90 while everyone gets 100' is equivalent to 'lose 1, keep 9, when everyone keeps 10' ?
mircea_popescu: there's no way to get rich while you sleep that doens't include everyone else getting richer.
shinohai: Isn't all "proof" on reddit?
bitstein: asciilifeform, BingoBoingo: Satoshi didn't actually sign much (if anything?), so it would be hard to verify regardless.
BingoBoingo: bitstein: Well can't use the @gmx.whatever email anymore because haxxed. Curiously not signed
asciilifeform: i can't wait for a 'donation of constantine' moment
bitstein: Didn't see this in the logs. Someone claiming to be Satoshi posted on the bitcoin-dev list: http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2015-August/010238.html
mircea_popescu: i was curious about dishes too, but i didn't expect to find them in the gutter.
BingoBoingo: Looking that way with blocks. Gotta remember Chicoms mine SPV, prolly haven't fiddled that string yet
mircea_popescu: shorting instrument my foot. it can't be shorted for the same reason you can't short random idiot's imaginary girlfriend.
BingoBoingo going out to pick up some venom and bile. I can't even today.
asciilifeform can't wait for the first tard block
BingoBoingo actually kinda surprised Hearn didn't wait until the first weekend of September to drop his trousers for a fencing contest. Shitgnommery was starting to get a pattern.
asciilifeform: but didn't feel like eating his pistol quite yet, so made up various stories in his head
asciilifeform: mr orr doesn't look like the usual vegetable to me
jurov: asciilifeform: good you haven't seen mpex statjson output
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2015/fefeleaga/#comment-115043 << see, now i can't see this in any other terms than, "ended up caring about insides"
asciilifeform: jurov: now i have to solve the problem. like i solved others before. but this one's gonna take some time, it isn't a nice clean shot in the head, but more of a slow isis beheading
asciilifeform: the pgp signature thing is fucktarded, can't believe for how long we've put up with it
jurov: i don't get it too
asciilifeform: i ain't doing it.
asciilifeform: now you can't sha512sum on the file, have to put it through a cutter
mircea_popescu: so i can't include a hash of the document i nthe document.
asciilifeform: because it doesn't belong in-band. ☟︎
asciilifeform: and one can't get a meaningful hash out of a sig
mircea_popescu: why do you think this is possible and if you have any reason to think so why aren't you fixing bitcoin then
mircea_popescu: wasn't gonna do it right now.
asciilifeform: ideally someone who isn't me has also verified the antecedents
assbot: Logged on 15-08-2015 17:14:43; mircea_popescu: she got so heartbroken she deleted her whatever profile etc. but wtf am i to do, i won't hang out with some chick that actually thinks "the people bla bla". just like that chick won't hang out with some dude that's either short or thinks the boo boo about fatties. cuz she can.
mircea_popescu: she got so heartbroken she deleted her whatever profile etc. but wtf am i to do, i won't hang out with some chick that actually thinks "the people bla bla". just like that chick won't hang out with some dude that's either short or thinks the boo boo about fatties. cuz she can. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: anyway, the dudes that women hound are just as retarded. take me for instance : there's a shitton of opinions woman can't hold. recently met a very sweet girl, smart, decent figure. she's an argentine, so her only real chance to eat is to work for the government - there's really no productive activity going on here, much like it were say detroit. so she was some derpy "social worker" and aiming to either seniorize into
mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> https://i.imgur.com/TWL7uf7.png << the reason HE can't have "his own opinions" is simply that he's hounding her. just like used car, insurance and aluminum sides salesmen can't have their own opinions.
asciilifeform: it is so rare to meet with folks who aren't howlingly retarded.
asciilifeform: i just love these gloriously educated folks who carry on pretending we don't exist.
assbot: Logged on 15-08-2015 09:24:15; cazalla: asciilifeform, ./bitcoind -myip=*.*.*.* -connect 195.211.54.59 throws error "couldn't connect to server", any ideas why?
punkman: slightly annoying that you can't hear anyone talk over all the explosions, unless you turn the volume way up
cazalla: asciilifeform, ./bitcoind -myip=*.*.*.* -connect 195.211.54.59 throws error "couldn't connect to server", any ideas why? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: and yes it was a real character. the guy didn't write fiction. he just wrote well and so plenty of his ethnographic notations read more like blogposts.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform can't say jew, it's bad!
gernika: Saddest stories I read in school were Bridge to Terebithia, and Where the Red Fern Grows. Not comparable to Fefeleaga I don't think.
trinque: asciilifeform: first off, goddamn if I didn't just bellow laughter across the bar at "for piglet!"
trinque: if the point about culture wasn't made well enough already...
asciilifeform: but i don't expect to see the other end of the war in person, either.
asciilifeform: to me, a fella who doesn't work and will never have to, is ipso facto rich
asciilifeform: and which one doesn't
mircea_popescu: because the things that are get the flaw talk, and the things that aren't.... you wouldnt wanna fud some kids' imaginarium nao wouldja./
mircea_popescu: but i mean he got hair i don't, i got beard he doesn't ?
pete_dushenski: "if i suck and can't have love and children and a successful husband, than neither can you !"
mircea_popescu: well don't blame stage 2 for the movements of stagr 1
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu certainly so that 'teh womenz' don't edit the rag. makes it a two-stage deployment.
mircea_popescu: there's a lot of things of which i can't really name anything but hey, a lot of vague vulnerabilities are better than one specifically.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski well they read it, but they don't edit it rite.
pete_dushenski: it has a sufficiently broad cross-section of readership that it doesn't need electing so much
mircea_popescu: well i mean, teh women didn't elect metro something as the avenue for de-barren-isation did they
trinque: jurov: I still can't change my settings on the ML. when I save them, it kicks me back to the password screen, then back to config from there, where it has the previous values
asciilifeform: it isn't hard.
mircea_popescu: can't has joy ?
BingoBoingo: <trinque> I don't think baseball has been the american "thing" for a generator or more << Well "Latin American" thing still
BingoBoingo: <Adlai> ascii_field: baseball isn't the american sport, it's the american story. or something << Pastime
trinque: I ain't mad
trinque: hopefully this regime doesn't last long enough to mandate this self-driving nonsense
trinque: and why don't they just own up to it honestly
phf: oh, i know, i didn't realize there was even such a thing until i came to the states
mircea_popescu: which incidentally terribly weakens the middle class case against hitler. "oh, he lost the war". sure. guess what, the war that was won hasn't been invented yet.
mircea_popescu: general indication seems to be that he didn't care for the result either. that "apres moi le deluge" is very similar to socrates' "i have nothing to offer nor do i wish to offer anything in fine."
mircea_popescu: if we like or don't like the results - at least we know.
mircea_popescu: he didn't know at the time what he was saying. obviously. and perhaps didn't even care to find if what he said was or was not said before.
phf: i don't think an aristocratic kid has to scream to get what they want, a baseline of ability is always present and taken for granted, in that sense a reddit sjw is not much different from the wealthy version of the same
mircea_popescu: the problem is that the shit you think you wish for can't be. it's the problem of the shit, not of the genie.
phf: mircea_popescu: i don't have a defendable position, i'm not sure i fully understand your "degenerate kids" comment, because it seems like a huge write off.
mircea_popescu: as i observed to a friend recently - if everything worked i wouldn't even care to have a name.
mircea_popescu: if you don't learn to be a man with a horse and a servant, you're beyond help.
trinque: seems the aristocracy can't allow their children to develop foolish ideas such as being able to change reality arbitrarily, which any kid left to his own thoughts growing up in wealth will come to believe
trinque: but doesn't really serve the american narrative in teh same way baseball seems to have
trinque: I don't think baseball has been the american "thing" for a generator or more
Adlai: ascii_field: baseball isn't the american sport, it's the american story. or something
ascii_field: no, they only purge the folks who won't play ball
gernika: mod6 didn't realize 0.5.3 didn't have -reindex, so attempted a reindex with old .dat files (backed up blkindex.dat and last blk*.dat) - so I think I'm just syncing from scratch at this point. Not sure how useful my log would be at this point.
ascii_field: 'Naturally all the documentation is keep secret, but a quick Google search would reveal that one can't simultaneously work at place x, and give lectures at place y, while x and y are hours of travel away. But again the people who control the grant money only check the paperwork they are provided. Is there a bogus employment contract in my name? I don't know but I have reasons to believe so.'
ascii_field: a few others i can't recall now.
mircea_popescu: people like to lie and claim their failures are some sort of virtues. but they aren't. and the fact that those kids felt unequal to the responsibility of who they were supposed to be in this world... well...
mircea_popescu: i don't think this is at all controversial. the degenerate children of a lost aristocracy are the primary fuel of the imbecillity of revolution.
mircea_popescu: (and no, it can't be fixed by simply moving one's hands and MAKING him that. it has to come from the public, as an unavoidable necessity. and no, the public can't be "educated" etc)
mircea_popescu: cruelty can't be gratuitous.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field speaking of which - weirdness like "colectivisation" etc didn't touch most of high transylvania. simply because teh people didn't do it. because wut. even some horses survived.
mircea_popescu: this is the most successful sort of special pleading for the entire "resistance through culture" thing. which is why the argument can't be properly carried in english, etc.
trinque: if yours doesn't, be glad, but you still end up gnarled and old, and perhaps with a few more horses
trinque: yes, life comes to this, and no, you can't do anything about it.
mircea_popescu: not from the hero's pov, obviously, that can't be. but from my (the other's) pov.
mike_c: Can't carry rocks with no horse.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-08-2015#1237791 << no blobs if you have a civilized (amd!) board. and the intel boards won't work, typically, even with blobs ☝︎
