PeterL: " bullets with enormous electric charges would be accelerated in a special valve and emmited with several
times
the velocity of light." <<< lol
undata: asciilifeform:
thank you sir; I will
punkman: Azelphur offered
to do it couple of days ago, but
too late I guess
punkman: no it needs a sysadmin for
the server, plenty of servers
to be had
PeterL: punkman: you are saying
the
thing works, you just need a server
to run it on?
punkman: mircea_popescu: punkman is off
the deedbot project after
the horrid failure of
the past month << I accept
that
punkman: asciilifeform genuinely wonderf wtf happened
to deedbot 2 << lack of hosting admin, mostly
PeterL: is
that going
to
take some
time
to
take effect?
PeterL: well,
there are
two, one for
the scoopbot and one for
the blog agregator
PeterL: "NDkxNDIwODUyMDg4fDY5LjE2Mi42NC44Mg== What's anon
talking about" I
think it got longer?
mircea_popescu: then if i see my stuff republished on mfa farms/whatever later on, it's
trivial
to ban
the leech.
PeterL: so
that
tell you what parser accessed your site?
PeterL: EG "NjkuMTYyLjY0Ljgy What's anon
talking about ?"
PeterL: Is
that what
that garbledy gook is at
the start of
the feed summary is?
mircea_popescu: i used it extensively in
the 2010-2011 period
to identify and ban content spinners
mircea_popescu: if you look at
the feeds
they start with a
token which describes
the parser for my use
mircea_popescu: PeterL i even excluded your parser from
teh branding programme
kakobrekla: yes
there is only 20 years of internets left
to go around
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla srsly polling much more frequently
than
that's just a waste.
PeterL: well, cazalla asked for it, and it seemed easy enough
to include
PeterL: I
think it might have been 15 minutes when I first made it?
kakobrekla: i just find
the whole fetch command
thing silly.
PeterL: kakobrekla: scoopbot is set
to check blogs every 5 minutes, some people are impatient
mircea_popescu: can it be set so it scans every minute, on a diff second by
the blog list ?
mircea_popescu: cazalla $2 a day can't be a lot if you're stuck with a $500 piece of machinery +
the bills for its maintenance.
cazalla: you wouldn't bother playing it for
the payouts but i'm sure someone for who $2 a day is a lot would find it worthwhile
cazalla: asciilifeform, but
this app pays out
the moment it awards you, i'm
trying
to
think of a homer simpson drinking bird means of doing it but no go
PeterL: what do you do in
this game
to earn it?
cazalla: i don't know if anyone saw
that ipad game
that pays out 0.0001.. i fucked around with it for an hour or so and earned 0.0003, i'm sure some indian is setting up a sweatshop
to farm it 24/7 as we speak
assbot: Logged on 05-01-2015 17:57:08; kakobrekla: i dont get
this scoopbot 30 min delay + fetch command. when i setup rss feed for herr vulpes jenkins (which is now offline for some reason) i hit it once a minute cause i give no fucks. no need for
this -fetch nonsense if you change
the interval
to something saner.
PeterL: if you pm him, you don't need
to include scoopbot, just -fetch
PeterL: flash sucks, I seem
to remember reading
they are no longer supporting Linux platforms for
thier new updates?
PeterL: heh, I
think
that is my first bashed line :)
PeterL: One
thing I like about qntra is
that, unlike lots of other news site,
there are no auto-playing videos on EVERY SINGLE ARTICLE. bleh, stupid media sites
BingoBoingo: Well, more level. Stamp has a premium
though
mircea_popescu: having
the skin covered in hair seems evolutionarily beneficial.
mircea_popescu: there's nothing wrong with peripheral hairs, is what i'm saying.
the idea is
to not have hair in
the core, on
the liver, inside
the lungs.
assbot: So /Bitstamp is back. Looks like
there's a familiar BTC price premium
there as people dump
their fiat.
PeterL: goes along with point 2:
things not stated are up
to programmer
mircea_popescu: "I do not now nor will I ever care about
the "readability" or "elegance" of (codebases worth 5 bux)."
RagnarDanneskjol: re molokization of deedbot v2.0 - no idea what you're
talkin about? has nothing
to do with me. also don't recall pestering anyone here ever..once in a blue moon I will ask questions in pm if I'm not authed/voiced.
PeterL: mircea_popescu: "I do not now nor will I ever care about
the "readability" or "elegance" of codebases worth 5 bux." <<
These are
things
that
the programmer should care about, because he will have
to maintain
the
thing in
the future.
RagnarDanneskjol: my understanding is
the first bot went down b/c my friend disi found a server vulnerability which I promptly brought
to your attention (I originally recommended you NOT have moloko do admin / continued development b/c I knew he was not suited for it). I followed
the recent convo here and lead me
to understand
the only issue with punkbot was
the vps got flooded and shut down...that's punkman's understandi
assbot: Logged on 05-01-2015 04:43:52; mircea_popescu: punkman
this really has been very poorly communicated.
PeterL: From
Trilema "Jobs Board" post: "You are expected
to negotiate your own pay." <<
This is where I demand 1200 USD/mo for upkeeping scoopbot, right?
BingoBoingo: Nebulous, but a
time sink. One
that delays implementation of
thing
that by all means seemed
to work as advertised up until obstacle.
BingoBoingo: I imagine molokization refers
to socially engineered
time sink where
thing works, obstacle,
thing goes off
the rails
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Maybe it's just
the way
those pictures were
taken but rotational differences in some of
the bolt's cuts appear.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: On
the bolt you can also notice difference aside from
the one where
the arrow points
BingoBoingo: Well m16 is subtype of AR and I was
thinking
the "lower reciever" which is legally
the gun and not
the bolt
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Havent' looked much at how AK crippleware is done. AR becomes cripple ware because metal
that should be missing is not
mircea_popescu: yeah,
the civil militia project of selling as many as possible, once
the jews ran out.
mircea_popescu: cugir "sewing mahcine" factory
turned out millions of em.
mircea_popescu: im sure one can buy an ak if one asks for it in romanian
tho :D
mircea_popescu: i've really not kept up with it. maybe not,
they're commies.
BingoBoingo: My bet is he wanted
that ambassadorship for
the swedish
twinks
BingoBoingo: That was
the ambassador's actual christmas card
two years ago
mircea_popescu: yeah, except in a society
that does
this everyone's doing something else stupid
to compensate willy-nilly.
mircea_popescu: i'd rather have 10 cops
that have a ld50 dose of 3 shooting assailants
than 10k cops
that basically constitute ballistic sacks.
davout: i guess we should simply send our cops
to syria for
training instead of our youth
