mircea_popescu: thestringpuller i dun see why it would have
to be fresh.
thestringpuller: so
the db is gonna be fresh, everyone has
to re-register keys and stuff?
mircea_popescu: hekc,
the old ones don't go away either, you can just log
the chan.
mike_c: yes.
thankfully we are not experian :)
thestringpuller: mike_c: well some
things stay ony our credit report for years even if
the rating changes :P
mike_c: can it get 'rated since' right? so you don't have
to weigh whether it is worth changing a rating description vs losing
the original rating date.
mircea_popescu: on
the plus side, since we have
the signed pastebin
thing down pat by now,
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: nevertheless,
the agreement is adding assbot wot capabilities is desirable and strengthens
the whole shebang overall << will assbot write
to a wot db - assbot_wot.db if you will? or will it just be read-only?
mircea_popescu: tempted
to guess it'll be before bitstamp's exchange's back online at any rate :D
mircea_popescu: nevertheless,
the agreement is adding assbot wot capabilities is desirable and strengthens
the whole shebang overall
PeterL: mircea_popescu: you said a replacement for gribble auth was in
the works, were you referring
to "gossipd" or a more readily available something else, like using assbot for auth?
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: convenience is appreciated esp. by
the chronically inconvenienced. << does
this mean you also appreciate
time management?
BingoBoingo: PeterL: Well a number of refineries
there, but
there' refineries pretty much everywhere.
PeterL: wrt pipeline: I
thought
they were piping it
to
texas because
that is where
the refineries are, refineries are
there because
that is where ports are?
pete_dushenski: since
there's no ;;later function, you'll note
that i left you a msg in
the logs
RagnarDanneskjol: While we anxiously await gribb's return, its worth mentioning,
the best btc exchange avail is funded by donations...address is at bottom of OTC website
thestringpuller: what if nanotube leaving was an attempt
to make ops in our channel
nubbins`: apologies for
the
technical difficulties, gribble's absence has left us mildly encumbered
TomServo: mircea_popescu: Naw, I had just noticed he joined
the chan earlier.
BingoBoingo: I actually
think
this whole fracking/pipeline
thing is rather poetic.
The United States is literally shattering
the country's bedrock
to become more like Nigeria.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski> further north, monsanto farms Further north and Keystone XL doesn't need
to be as long. Right now
trains and barges move crude. Refineries scatted around as well.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> who would need oil
there, arizona ?! new mexico ? <<
This. Also Oklahomo, Louisiana...
BingoBoingo: <pete_dushenski> BingoBoingo ok, but it's neighbours
too? << Yes, especially
the neighbors. "Fracking"
mircea_popescu: shit, "human girls asshole" search string
trendingon
trilema.
THE ALIENS HAVE LANDED!
pete_dushenski: “The greatest secret of monarchic rule...is
to keep men deceived and
to cloak in
the specious name of religion
the fear by which
they must be checked, so
that
they will fight for slavery as
they would for salvation, and will
think it not shameful, but a most honorable achievement,
to give
their life and blood
that one man may have a ground for boasting.”
BingoBoingo: <pete_dushenski> BingoBoingo right, but you're saying
there's no domestic need in
the
texas area? <<
Texas itself net exports on its own
mircea_popescu: earned, and appeal solely
to reason. In fact,
the real disturbers of
the peace are
those who, in a free state, seek
to curtail
the liberty of judgment which
they are unable
to
tyrannize over.
mircea_popescu: Schisms do not originate in a love of
truth, which is a source of courtesy and gentleness, but rather in an inordinate desire for supremacy. From all
these considerations it is clearer
than
the Sun at noonday,
that
the
true schismatics are
those who condemn other men's writings, and seditiously stir up
the quarrelsome masses against
their authors, rather
than
those authors
themselves, who generally write only for
the l
pete_dushenski: you just caught me in
the middle of reading "ethics" again and
that's
the salient bit
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu aha yknow come
to
think of it
that rings a bell
mircea_popescu: i enjoy reading
these articles even if it's
the same subject matter all over again,
pete_dushenski: and it might be a bit loose
to call spinoza an inventor given
that he only crafted words
☟︎ mircea_popescu: On April 5, DPR wrote: "I've received
the picture and deleted it.
Thank you again for your swift action."
pete_dushenski: in a way, i suppose
that
the opposite of an inventor is anonymous...
pete_dushenski: i guess an "inventor" for me doesn't have
to have a specific product attributed
to
them
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform:
though if nanotube goes in for
this, omidyar should go <<<
turns out stan is ALSO
toxic
assbot: Immigration policy is about barriers
to entry, not fairness; or how Paul Graham
thinks programmers are inventors | Contravex: A blog by Pete Dushenski ... (
http://bit.ly/1xKEm4H )
mircea_popescu: (the colodial silver folk are
the working study group for
this)
mircea_popescu: anyway, gold oxides and suspensions are very moderately
toxic
undata: google says
the average bladder is about 0.5 L
mircea_popescu: because
the us is built on "0% risk", see. otherwise smoking is ok and no need for helmets.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: seems like it does require a crown contract attesting
to
the fact of use in a particular product, along with statement of disposal arrangements << uranium is, if mishandled, extremely
toxic.
undata: and yet people still swim in
the river
undata: look
that reservoir, you didn't make
that
to piss in, we all did
undata: ^ clearly
this merits spending a few hundred million
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo right, but you're saying
there's no domestic need in
the
texas area?
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Not really. Domestically we are getting
the oil just fine.
There's refineries spread all over
the country.
The point of
the pipe is it runs
to
the ports in
Texas.
pete_dushenski: export pipelines
to china from alberta are happening whether keystone goes forward or not
BingoBoingo: I
thought
the entire point of having a domicile was heating it so clothing inside became optional.
mircea_popescu: i dunno exactly what inflamed part of
the cerebrum it comes from, but it's a commie
thing.
BingoBoingo: Well it's like
the KeystoneXL pipeline debate for which both sides neglect
to discuss
the destination of oil flowing
through it (the export market)
mircea_popescu: that it's obvious
to you but not
to
them has more
to do with
the fact
that
they're used
to
their own shit
than anything.
mircea_popescu: they pretend, just like everyone else,
to
the utmost of
their ability.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo why ? it's
the same
tribal, pretentious, inept culture. << At least Botswana's economy accepts
that it exists simply as a
tool for extracting raw resources.
mircea_popescu: mike_c: is
this new "1 week buffer from event" copy now standard practice? << people like putting it in. what can i say ?
