shinohai: Really? I can access it
asciilifeform: shinohai: i see a crapflare eggog
asciilifeform: shinohai: i have same brand ~pata~ ssd in an ancient dos lappy. not dead yet...
shinohai: Keeps popping up in my research but I'm leery of unknown brands.
PeterL: this is something I needed for work, and tada, web search came up with nice open access article, I was amazed ☟︎☟︎
BingoBoingo: I'm very uncertain. It's easy to know pantsuit eats their own. I lack a refined oracle atm for which demographic pantsuit eats next.
mircea_popescu: maybe worth, what do i know.
mircea_popescu: for all i care, i doesn't have internals.
mircea_popescu: i measure the whore's performance not her internal states.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I doubt it's a folding to Republican ideology so much as "Remember how popular Black Lives Matter was electorally..."
BingoBoingo: <ben_vulpes> BingoBoingo: actually now that you mention it, i hopped on a scale for lulz recently and realized that i should really stop calibrating my intake against hers << Smoking cessation invokes a similar realization when the implication of one's resting heartrate falling to a human value from a near avian value on basal metabolism hits
ben_vulpes: tooling i told you to write three months ago."

ben_vulpes: i tell you, listening to the young feller who shares the toxic trainstation orifice with me prattle on about the majesty of es6 takes what wind is left in the sails of trying to fix a young man's mind clean to /dev/null
ben_vulpes: girl wanted to show me things, but was reading circuit diagrams, "woman, i am reading schematics for a communist killing machine. whatever you have can wait"
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: actually now that you mention it, i hopped on a scale for lulz recently and realized that i should really stop calibrating my intake against hers
ben_vulpes: i'll probably put up a page on cuntstarter or something
ben_vulpes: pff i go to take my girl for gelato and romp my child with his grandparents and y'all create epic logs
BingoBoingo: <kanzure> mircea_popescu: the trick is convincing everyone to give me their science each day. most people just say "nah you'd die from information overload" but they haven't tried. << Have you tried building an obelisk for your science. I hear it works wonders.
asciilifeform: 'but pray tell mr babbage, if i put into the machine the wrong figures...'
asciilifeform: this is so. but in the process exposed that whole edifice is a prestigefarm: 'it won't get me tenuretracked at shitbridge, why should i print there'
mircea_popescu: which should answer #hpluswhatwas it's curiosity. i can coerce, because people can't live with themselves if they don't do as i say. a lesson some learn on own skin and some intuit naturally.
mircea_popescu: but this is why i'm not telling you to do it.
asciilifeform: and i suspect that there are no cutlets in there.
mircea_popescu: i did say.
mircea_popescu: "i want my computer to lisp because i want to inspect the trees and i think science should be in acrylate slices, like the fucking horses"
mircea_popescu: this is 100 times more valuable than "oh noes, i drew out my product symbol hurr"
kanzure: i called you an idiot and you gave me money. the non-registration goes both ways.
kanzure: anyway, i agree that the data is in terrible format, should be fixed before dumping 50 TB of crap on everyone
kanzure: i haven't checked if that's the case.
gabriel_laddel_p: mircea_popescu: criuise ships don't really check ID + bribes exist. I can probably take a one way cruise, hop off & become someone else if I felt like putting in the effort/
a111: Logged on 2017-08-31 02:28 asciilifeform: i had nfi it were possible to be 'banned from berkeley' - what is this, 1500s germany?
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-31#1707010 << i expect it's mostly a sign of recognition. his narrative seems to confirm. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: but i have nfi what he actually did etc.
mircea_popescu: has to be federal, which wouldn't be for "trespassing" ie i got drunk at a party.
gabriel_laddel_p: mircea_popescu: I'm not a felon. trespassing & petty theft + ignored warrants for years.
gabriel_laddel_p: mircea_popescu: I
mircea_popescu: i had nfi you're a felon. what'd you do again ?
mircea_popescu: kanzure the crap i mean, actual bad "research" papers.
gabriel_laddel_p: to finish that story, I was not even at this party, and don't to any of them + have started charging people to meet with me.
mircea_popescu: i suppose this also could go on the list, other than the teixochips and microscope : depdfizing and SELECTING the decent papers in that pile.
gabriel_laddel_p: mircea_popescu: nah. like 20-something. I don't talk to her or anything, but, again, people run into, ban, then discuss me at lenght
gabriel_laddel_p: mircea_popescu: well, in this instance the (guy) in question thought I sounded important & invited me to come live for a bit. parents making dinner.
gabriel_laddel_p: which is why I have a place to stay & someone making me food right now.
gabriel_laddel_p: it is so clearly and utterly obvious that I'm more important than, whatever, all of sf
gabriel_laddel_p: & having been banned from the number of social circles etc etc I end up in strange positions all the time.
gabriel_laddel_p: mircea_popescu: agreed. I love eating, but my finances go from 0 to 1k back to 0... regularly
gabriel_laddel_p: I know nothing about medicine & defer to my betters.
mircea_popescu: i wonder if they still do the whole fracture setting class for soldiers these days. prolly not.
gabriel_laddel_p: imho I would have been fine after a week of sleep
gabriel_laddel_p: err... the whole "almost died" thing is from the the doctors. they said this, I should have not just repeated it in logs.

mircea_popescu: i suppose could be in volumes yeah.
a111: Logged on 2017-08-31 00:48 kanzure: you have something against libraries....? i mean other than all the librarians being spineless.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it ain't a static blob of warez, there is l as i understand, a snarfer , proxytron, etc
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i thought the issue was access to said data, not how it was obtained.
a111: Logged on 2017-08-31 00:44 kanzure: few kilobytes/sec when i looked a ~year ago
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-31#1706962 << back when i dumped the cables, i just put them on trilema. very downloadable by everyone. that's the correct approach. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-06-09 15:11 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-09#1667584 << it is not, and ain't going to be, i'm not especially interested in helping folx to 'embrace and extinguish' it. as far as i'm concerned, 100% of the output is verifiable with the bignum calculator of your choice (e.g. 'bc') and it is no concern of anybody's how it was obtained.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i suspect this is exactly the http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-09#1667701 item. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: coincidentally, i was watching underground. saw it ?
mircea_popescu: nevertheless i'm not about to declare working for the shitpiles verboten. especially if the dood is smart enoughj to take his payment in cash.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i can see why his working for fiat lulzfest attempting to fight battle usg lost back in 2014 may not earn him any brownie points with you or trinque or anyone else
asciilifeform: 'oh i was in the ss but made no gassing decisions'
a111: Logged on 2017-08-29 00:26 kanzure: oh yeah, i'm not. ok.
mircea_popescu: shinohai: "connections" : 5, << i think that's how many of the trb list are actually up atm
kanzure: i implemented that yes

gabriel_laddel_p: I want my goddamn lispm as of two decades ago please.
gabriel_laddel_p: asciilifeform: you realize I don't like... pay bills, rent, whatever, right?

gabriel_laddel_p: I'm sane and they're unilaterally morons. I'm not coy about it.
gabriel_laddel_p: I've been banned from everything
gabriel_laddel_p: asciilifeform: nonono, like all the houses of people I know in the area
asciilifeform: i had nfi it were possible to be 'banned from berkeley' - what is this, 1500s germany? ☟︎

trinque: forgive me if I disbelieve the part where you shattered your leg then went "meh, time to code"
gabriel_laddel_p: there is supposed to be a lisp conference in sf in like 10 months I have to prepare for
gabriel_laddel_p: theoretically, aside from the place I'm at now I have a room paid for without me doing anything.
gabriel_laddel_p: I'm german and don't stop for anyone.
trinque: for example, I learn that a certain George HW Bush as state congressman worked against the straightening and lining with concrete of buffalo bayou! ☟︎

asciilifeform: i'm not convinced there is anything valuable in there.
kanzure: few kilobytes/sec when i looked a ~year ago ☟︎
asciilifeform: i thought there wasn't a torrent...?
kanzure: well i think she was attempting to be anonymous she was just bad at it, back in 2013 and pre-2013
kanzure: well if it's true that i was the origin of her doxx (which is totally possible, i fucked up), that might color her deicsion, although her continuing to talk with me anyway doesn't add hope to that being right
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: briefly revisiting http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-30#1706495 : i'm beginning to wonder if it was simply because of WHO asked. i can't really blame $chix for not relishing the prospect of kanzure et al riding her l337 w4r4z to stolen relevancy esr-style ☝︎☟︎
