trying searching
through my open
tabs on where
to start
BingoBoingo: dgeats: No, finish your fucking registration. You needed help, help is offered, get
this shit over with while someone has patience.
dgeats: ok I’ll go back
to lurking

dgeats: dude I’ve been
trying for over a week
BingoBoingo: dgeats: PM, I'll halp
troubleshoot
to a point, but yes. Private keys stay private. If one of
those strings you entered is a private key... Generate a new keypair.
dgeats: aren’t
they supposed
to be private!!?

BingoBoingo: Or when Nixon banished
the rest of
the press corps so he could
talk
to Hunter S.
Thompson about football
BingoBoingo: I wonder how long
the Chinese will suffer Buterin's Waterfall before forcing a showdown on
the matter of STFUSA
BingoBoingo: The
TiDerps were slain, righteous had a path, and Bitcoin was cemented in
the following months
mircea_popescu: fuck
them, move on, plenty of
time left in
the future
to do important shit.
mircea_popescu: anyway, no point crying over
the mud-like stupidity of our parents.
mircea_popescu: decimation
that passion could have served a smarter man better you know ?
BingoBoingo: Dentist brother is an absolute hoot around marine cousins
though, with
their memories of ship board dentistry
mircea_popescu: bitcoin + pgp + foss would have been a much better alternative past
than fucktarded "flower power"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
this millenium, nobody actually saw. perhaps an excusable oversight, but still ridoinculous.
mircea_popescu: prolly because only
trolls and
terrorists do
that or something.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo larger problem : men don't generally get
that
they have
the god fucking given right
to say "fuck you and get lost"
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
The problem I when he presents it is
that not everyone wants
to marry a large SJW, even if it means
the dog you get in exchange is adorable
mircea_popescu: stan's fork will win
the bitcoin
through
the same interplay of
the same cosmic forces.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo
that's not happenstance.
that shit will happen again and again because it happened for fundamental reasons.
decimation: yeah actually bitcoin is a great example of
the link I posted yesterday, about
technologies
that *should* have been invented in
the past but were not
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> nobody ever goes "you shitfaces,
THIS opportunity you missed. all of you." << My brother
the dentist does if you get him drunk.
mircea_popescu: well, except for
terrorist me, of course, in a piece about romania's 80s generation. but
that's besides
the point.
BingoBoingo: Ah,
the great
thing about PGP is
that GPG 1.4x fork won
mircea_popescu: nobody ever goes "you shitfaces,
THIS opportunity you missed. all of you."
mircea_popescu: people
tend
to be very laudative of
the people
that were smart, at any juncture
decimation: I remember
those heady days, when it was
thought
that it wouldn't be possible
to 'make money' off of foss
mircea_popescu: the exact sort of
thing
that would render a us expeditionary force if
the arabs but spoke english, is
the exact
thing
that renders
the "well meaning" idiots you mentioned earlier
mircea_popescu: same shit, so foss starts, great, get rhel
to be a pentagon contractor.
mircea_popescu: "Government sponsored enterprises enter
the business, in due course bad behavior is made mandatory, and
the evil financial network is bigger
than
the honest financial network, with
the result
that even
though everyone knows what is happening, people continue
to use
the paper issued by
the evil financial network, because of network effects -
the big, main issuers, are
the issuers you use if you want
to do business."
decimation: well, when money is literally handed out
to idiots via gov't programs,
tricking idiots into forking over is a great business model
BingoBoingo: I imagine
they saw
the quick cash
the microshit model brings
decimation: one can inspect
the patches, if one is willing
to sit down and do
the work
BingoBoingo: decimation: Not really. RedHat still has updates. Red Hat's antithesis
though...
decimation: rhel has slowly gone downhill over
the past few years - becoming more 'poetterized'
decimation: BingoBoingo: well, redhat pretty much operates
this way
mircea_popescu: at
the
time i had a full complement of php coder guru
types,
threw in "make me a better wp" in a worklist once and well...
BingoBoingo wishes more software would go
the errata+patches route
BingoBoingo: decimation: I
think I've asked him before. He doesn't update
though. He simply patches.
BingoBoingo: PeterL: Well... I
think Ben Fox hosts his blog on emacs
PeterL: BingoBoingo: cascadianhacker apparently doesn't have a working feed, but I could add it
to
the list on
the right
PeterL: mircea_popescu: I am grabbing
the summary, most of
them are pretty short
mircea_popescu: fizzbuzz
test is supposed
to catch 99.5% of "programmers"
too neh ?
decimation: mircea_popescu: I would agree with
the 'idiot' label - but you realize
that
this 'catches' at least 95% of humanity - who generally refuse
to consider
their position w.r.t.
the entire world's (and history's) context
assbot: People have made blogs pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
assbot: missives from
the post-megastate frontier
BingoBoingo: PeterL: Looks good,
think you are missing Ben Fox's blog and maybe a couple others.
mircea_popescu: in general,
the country suffers when
taxes are paid, and gains
through graft.
decimation: mircea_popescu:
there are genuine people with genuine skills who spend
their entire lives attempting
to make usg better
mircea_popescu: but in general : it is good
that any one person steals any one sum from
the usg.
decimation: at least with private cons,
the damage is likely
to be limited and obvious in scope, rather
than 'socialized'
mircea_popescu: whereas when
taxes are significant,
the opposite happens.
mircea_popescu: and so
the conman moves
to
try adn con private interest.
