jurov: not like someone will hijack your irc just
to steal qntra crumbs
pete_dushenski: so jurov, how do i
transfer my s.qntra
to coinbr? id by incoming btc address?
thestringpuller: if sim city has
taught me anything: cut
taxes
to 0, make factories everywhere and have
them pay
the bills
pete_dushenski: probably one in a generation/century/millenium
type of
thing

jurov: to
think we made fun of 796.com
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: why not decide alberta is from now on 600ad byzantine style. << because progress. it's completely
tragic how badly alberta's original building stock has been
treated. perfectly lovely neoclassical buildings are now surface parking lots.
cazalla: mircea_popescu, i have a look later
this arvo,
things
to do
this morning
jurov: what is
the domain exactly?
ben_vulpes: plz do
then
tell mircea_popescu what
they are and (pretty please) he will configure records appropriately
mircea_popescu: "Regional Immigration Police Commissioner Maj. Gen. Chartchai Eimsaeng said a U.S.-based movie association had hired a
Thai lawyer
to search for Neij, and his photo had been given
to immigration police in Nong Khai." herp.
jurov: ben_vulpes and what about
the move
to 0xdeadbeef.org or such?
jurov: ben_vulpes: but i added
the rules only yesterday
jurov: did anyone
try
to send patches as decribed on btc-dev page?
assbot: Fredrik Neij, Pirate Bay co-founder, arrested in
Thailand - World - CBC News
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu even funbux corrupt. prolly better
this way.
pete_dushenski: god
this hotel lounge is fucking perfect, even if
this old fashioned is watered down
mircea_popescu: yeah i guess ima have
to keep doing it on an amateur basis.
pete_dushenski: lol you'd be oversubscribed and end up closing mpex
to focus on
this "real work"
mircea_popescu: i guess i should start a special service. "for only one small pile of internet funbux, i will viciously insult one commenter on your blog entirely out of left side. cheaper
than hiring indians
to write comments, funnier
too."
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski i
thought you
two were irl buddies or something
mircea_popescu: police breaking down door, which obviously imperils someone - such as
the random bystander, is a-ok. naming agents however MIGHT imperil someone, such as an asshole abusing his offical status
to powerplay.
this is very un-ok.
mircea_popescu: The government
tries
to minimize publicity about
the names of agents investigating cases involving potentially violent criminals. "The information (about agents) he gave out might
threaten somebody's safety --
the information
that he broadcast could imperil somebody," Ashman said.
pete_dushenski: and at 3000 words,
this makes
the longest piece yet on
the pages of contravex
pete_dushenski: so like everything else bad and
trolling and
terrorist mkay, it's hard
to distinguish it from a cult
pete_dushenski: and one with a structure quite unfamiliar
to
the western reader
pete_dushenski: my nearest meatspace approximation is
the masons w/o
the symbols
assbot: Let’s Cut
To
The Chase, Is La Serenissima A Cult? | Contravex: A blog by Pete Dushenski
bounce: yeah, but "packets" with modulated fax signal in a sampled-and-compressed voice channel is rather
tricky
to get right. better
to demodulate
the fax and send
the data.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> 'own
tablet' - means what? own chipset, nothing from 'arm' ? own os, from zero? << From slate with frame is a couple hours, input device is chalk
bounce: IIRC
they demodulate
the fax and send
the data over voip,
then remodulate on
the other end (or just hand you
the fax data, if
they can)
mircea_popescu: which is why
the "terrorist" members of
the public don't want
the government
to have "capabilities"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i
think
that's mandated, buried in
the license language somewhere 500 pages deep
dub: telco still goes
to retarded lengths
to maintain fax compat
assbot: Parallel Port Interface
to
the Private Eye P4 Head-Mounted Display
bounce: there's a bigger pattern here
though
dub has had
to fax in
the last couple of years
bounce: more reason
to support it
then
mircea_popescu: by
the
time you explain what you want you could have drawn it five
times over.
bounce: apropos, fax is still popular in japan, apparently. great for quick sketches and notes.
take picture, fax. sure why not.
mircea_popescu: gals want a guy
that's funny and whatever, guy wants a girl
that's infertile.
mircea_popescu: the "i don't plan
to use
the capability"
thing makes me wonder : isn't it strange
that "infertility" isn't
the leading
thing in dating sites and comedian's routines re dating sites ?
bounce: I don't *plan* on using
that sort of
thing, but if I'm building a phone it's gotta have
the capability
bounce: carries law protection and
the receipt is valid in court
bounce: instead of waiting in
the queue, write letter, fax, get reception receipt
bounce: used a faxmodem. good for
talking
to gov't but also for bypassing phone queues
mircea_popescu: bounce you seriously duly received an actual fax in
the course of business ?
bounce: but having "an app"
to
talk
to such a gateway would be on
the list
bounce: sure.
though +/- 30v is a bit of a pain. and anyway, nobody does
that
these days, you'd interface
through a 'net gateway somewhere.
bounce: so I'd have modem and fax support as well as voice and sms and whatnot. whether you use it is up
to you.
bounce: 'sides,
the point of building a phone is
to have access
to all
the capabilities on offer with
the networks it gives access
to
mircea_popescu: i dunno, maybe i'm weird, but
the only actual point of calling, ie voice, would be a woman, and rather
than call (ie, on phone) i'd always prefer
to call (ie, bitch get on plane)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but you'd use
the "phone"
to push
text anyway.
bounce: heck, put a e-ink display on it.
though
those exist in sorta-colour
too
bounce is initially
thinking of something like
the 6310, only updated hardware. can easily still be b/w lcd. no need for fancy shit
there.
ben_vulpes: i want
to hook into
the cell network from my laptop; make/receive calls etc
bounce: well,
that's why you order
the
things built in shenzen
ben_vulpes: why should
there be a "phone" object instead of a
thing one plugs into computers
that provides a /dev/phone?
mircea_popescu: there's either android, samsung retarded linux port or mac-whatever
that is.
bounce: of
the feature phone OS kind, no full linux and shit
