mircea_popescu: or did they give up on the pretense meanwhile

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733673 << might lead the british "nuclear submarine"/crock of shit to discover it couldn't actually launch even if it wanted to. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733659 << why not ? cheap solution, passive array, measure em interference. ☝︎☟︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733643 << almost! ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733636 << there's exactly zero incentive to plan for actual war for the obvious reason : 0 survival rate of current socialisms in case of war. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: ledmme fish it out.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733587 << this is a funny application of the 7 wonders of socialism. dja know that bit ? ☝︎

mircea_popescu: "this is the new consensus-community developed standard"

mircea_popescu: or even silently.

mircea_popescu: they -- for lack of alternative.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733562 << this is a doubtful proposition, as the enemy is basically "idiots", and much like nature having much more energy to burn than you do, idiots are much more affixed to their idiotarian ideology than you will ever be to yours. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733558 << this is a maintenance nightmare. the fundamental reason girls get married off is that it's much more efficient to maintain a station that works rather than to maintain a station that doesn't work. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733527 << very this much. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: exactly, goes in rr box

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733522 << had, in ag. and yes it was readily roadable, took basically a semi tractor head to move. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: myeah.

mircea_popescu: etc

mircea_popescu: have 20 meter high inflatable jumpything in middle of nowhere

mircea_popescu: charge tesla by running mercedes so the hipsters can hipster

mircea_popescu: or with everything else.

mircea_popescu: i'd like a car like that, insteadof the "planet saving" bullshit.

mircea_popescu: i guess. though im not sure i want to perma-carry the generator coils.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that pos goes over the wheel, bs. i want to bolt it on instead of the wheel!

mircea_popescu: hanbot http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/04wcZ/?raw=true

mircea_popescu: and motor per wheel works on you know, 50ton tatra mining truck.

mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes gets it. the have the zamak because cheapest answer to dynamic problems.

mircea_popescu: ^

mircea_popescu: no you don't, you have a truck alternator on a shitty nissan.

mircea_popescu: basically a slightly overgrown common alternator, like fit for a truck, but put on car and hurr durr we have hybrids

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i tried like 5 diff ones, they're all shit.

mircea_popescu: and much better than any fucking converted lawnmower they sell as generator, for that matter.

mircea_popescu: and most of the weight of the 30kg generator that needs a fuckming crane to move comfortably is the fucking engine, which guess what, i already have. ☟︎

mircea_popescu: for one thing, inductive load is generally 3x the rated draw. 3kw is not a fucking ac unit for instance.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes.

mircea_popescu: carry little piddly engine when has proper engine under hood.

mircea_popescu: ya but partyers are apparently idiots.

mircea_popescu: i guess. but welding the washing machine into the truck bed seems meh.

mircea_popescu: no, no. convertible.

mircea_popescu: how would the perma-modded truck fucking drive to there ?

mircea_popescu: that's not what i want. i want a washingmachine dynamo i can put in the back of the truck and take to middle of nowhere for tailgate party with megawatt power available.

mircea_popescu: at least on good quality german makes, it's not. i dunno about toyota nissan

mircea_popescu: not that massive.

mircea_popescu: compact, and ready to go in back of truck

mircea_popescu: i don't want that crap. i want a unit the size of washing machine.

mircea_popescu: that thing is like 1.5mn and the size of a room

mircea_popescu: i never saw one

mircea_popescu: park your car, put out 50kW or w/e the conversion yielkds.

mircea_popescu: yes but i mean, on sale as a product.

mircea_popescu: i want an unit which lifts up the bridge, plugs into the car as if it were a wheel, and then simply converts.

mircea_popescu: btw, why the fuck don't there exist wheel-dynamos ?

mircea_popescu: ikr

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733519 << my car actually has 160kW powerplant installed. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: the lights especially.

mircea_popescu: right.

mircea_popescu: what IS however overwhelmingly present in su of today is the howl of the newstyle ligthtbulb balancing circuits.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733491 << for the record, these were a lot more common in soviet union than in present days. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: tbh, by comparison with the volume of spurious strings pasted into shitsites, the amount of idle for loops executed to date seems dismall. less reddit more foring.

mircea_popescu: more than nothing. for all the idle cycles being burned erryday...

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you're not proving it safe, you're examining if you can prove it unsafe.

mircea_popescu: hence "moderately interesting".

mircea_popescu: but effect large enough to observe experimentally was observed experimentally.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform how the histogram of the result looks.

mircea_popescu: numeric methods to the rescue. wtf are computers even for amirite.

mircea_popescu: i suppose at this juncture a moderately interesting item would be to run some for loops and see.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733464 << i still don't follow how you figure the approach elides some primes. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: "pivot" being the anglo word for this.

mircea_popescu: it wants to be whatever usg's silicon valley politruks appear to be willing to put stalin's notes behind that season.

mircea_popescu: but otherwhise there's no excuse available to the chuchka that "washing is too hard and besides rubbing against a tree trunk is a close approximation"

mircea_popescu: or whatever, if they don't feel like it, like eg ben_vulpes doesn't for his paste service, let them not to

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733438 << let them learn how to fucking use technological civilisation, get a deedbot account and fucking charge like sane people. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733431 <<< bwahaha ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733423 << because you keep clicking on them. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not so, because the gap's a cone not a rectangle

mircea_popescu: in general so after 16773120 bits were produced by FG, 4096 were added to last bit and 1 to first. pyramidfixer.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733418 << no, actually : should generate new prime by adding a byte to the extant number that failed on a PROBABILITY based index. ie, adding to offset 0 much less probable than adding to offset 4090 ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733394 << finite formula. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-07#1733356 << for completeness i originally read "largest prime factor", and intuitively thought i see the proof, but meanwhile that also collapsed. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform http://trilema.com/2017/tmsr-rsa-spec-extremely-early-draft/#comment-123474 so there.

mircea_popescu: heh

mircea_popescu: wait, wrong decade. it's not the 1990s anymore!

mircea_popescu: heh. i think quantum computing was abandoned because it was discovered it leaked CFC gasses which are bad for the ozone layer

mircea_popescu: AND OTHER SUCH NONSENSE

mircea_popescu: it's important to be creative in any case. they can produce more eth at any time, but the experience was valuable.

mircea_popescu: just a flesh wound.

mircea_popescu: multi sig was such a brilliant itdea.

mircea_popescu: iirc the confederate republic scored this low after lee surrended and not at any point before

mircea_popescu: well, 10 day futures at 10% is terrible in and of itself.

mircea_popescu: ah right.

mircea_popescu: when's teh stuff supposed to come online again ?

mircea_popescu: shinohai that dun look too good.

mircea_popescu: !~later tell apeloyee http://trilema.com/2017/tmsr-rsa-spec-extremely-early-draft/#comment-123449 let's get teh guy involved as well.

mircea_popescu: answer't.

mircea_popescu: for srsly.

mircea_popescu: turns out it's not the brightest idea to deny people access to the body of a message if you're gonna send that subject line via email.

mircea_popescu: shinohai part 2 of the lulz is that the userbase is now revolting. "Well screw that then. This website is a big hoax."

mircea_popescu: heh.
