andreicon: mircea_popescu: by ~same~ i meant not new but recycled
shinohai: Am I to presume the pockmarked face = smallpox?
andreicon: i don't think i have ~equal~ access
mircea_popescu: andreicon the illusion of "~easy~ access to ~same~ technology" is universally and i find without exception the macula of the modern slave.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman amusingly enough, i recall a few... dozen moments of this "advent of technology" spring. like you know, Коммунизм = советская власть + электрификация всей страны.
andreicon: i find it challenging dealing with the politics, windows degrades itself
andreicon: i admit, i'm deep in microshit at work
diana_coman: andreicon> not necessarily new, just a few things i haven't tried <- the not-exciting ones?
andreicon: not necessarily new, just a few things i haven't tried
mircea_popescu: i guess there's a lot of new things in the world for you huh :)
andreicon: hopefully i'll have something to sell for mETH
phf: mircea_popescu: i'm pretty sure we've even had that conversation before, re girls looking for girls
andreicon: not as of yet, i'm still getting my shit together
andreicon: am i allowed to use a bot to get voiced here?
andreicon: i'm 29 ☟︎
andreicon: i'm passing the decrypt to gpg on the os
mircea_popescu: i've no recollection of it.
andreicon: i don't know how to search the logs yet
andreicon: haven't i told you?
andreicon: i've coded a bot in js that would voice me when i ask it ☟︎
andreicon: i'd rather train others to carry out tasks on my behalf
mircea_popescu: andreicon sorry, i and you both what ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i thought you were making it
mircea_popescu: that's the problem with me, i'm seldom actually doing what i'm say i'm doing.
mircea_popescu: i was mostly looking for sluts.
mircea_popescu: phf i dunno what you've been doing with your life to this point, but let me point out to you in no certain terms that adjusting what you do by what's available is the child's lot.
mircea_popescu: of course for maximal artsy i'd make your gliders asymmetrical. give it some nutty spin.
phf: i mean, the hackerspaces told me that it's "too hard", but they've been launching the same weather balloons with a camera for payload for like years now. literally a highschool project
mircea_popescu: glider bs is ww2 reich wunderwaffen (and i hope you read german for they did explore this to death)
mircea_popescu: i suppose this being what you meant by moving parts.
mircea_popescu: for instance : if i were solving this for military purposes i would have the machine list all targets it can visit such that it can still reach one landing spot, and then choose one to visit RANDOMLY. this offers some very strong guarantees : a) each machine will touch one target ; b) the algo can be recursed at ANY point (such as power failure) ; c) if you make a fleet of them you get coverage at no communication expense.
a111: Logged on 2017-07-14 01:14 mircea_popescu: i thought he was doing a plane thing
phf: of course, but does that mean i should completely abandon the problem?
asciilifeform: sometimes i wonder if anybody actually reads these things.
asciilifeform: i nearly forgot that this existed.
trinque: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-14#1683508 << I'll start chopping things down and aim for it, yes. ☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: i was reading 'today', and wtf'd
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-14#1683486 << seems it worked with 30 years of self-colonisation. about the same it took russia, also (i vaguely recall equivalent notion there a century ago) ☝︎
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no no, just, two different people telling me you know, a story that sorta was converging. i'm like... no fucking way!
Framedragger: i'm sure mp has some weird probabilistic intel hahaha
Framedragger: but i'll catch up on log, may be missing (lots of) context
BingoBoingo: lol, I typed too slow
mircea_popescu: i don't see how we could not.
BingoBoingo: It doesn't feed Inca is one point where it is toxic, but the other point I observe is people when recovering appear to become more ideologically sane as part of transformation.
mircea_popescu: i suppose different definitions of work
BingoBoingo: I've seen it work in the old, but then again looking different places.
mircea_popescu: i've not found it to work in anyone but the young.
mircea_popescu: just had lulz on a walk with girl yest, in that we saw a larger than common cement mixer on a construction site, and i said it's they're normally like a coupla galon's worth, and she agreed, and then she guessed the present one at 30 and i said it's like 120 yeah and she was totally blown out, no way it's 120 galons ? no, liters. this girl, two years ago, misjudged the volume of a hangar she was physically present in by three
mircea_popescu: anyway, i don't score cluelessness for stupidity. it's structured and self defending/perpetuating cluelessness that triggers.
mircea_popescu: was funny, too, with all the airports and shit. "is that a screwdriver ?" "yeah" "you can't take screwdrivers on the airplane!" "no, it's ok, see, it has fittable heads" "ah... uh... i see. well it's ok then."
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> i think BingoBoingo might have been ; and had his private chuckles hence. << Was waking up into personhood. Started exploring active involvement in BTC out of hunger around time of GLBSE explosion. Found fledgling TMSR early 2013, in time to use BitBet on SuperBowl.
asciilifeform: i still remember in uni dorm, astonishment, there existed people who did not own hammer, screwdriver.
BingoBoingo: <andreicon> but i take pride in being an above-average thinker so i'm sure i'm in the right place. just don't know why until i read the 22mn lines of logs << Recommend reading Trilema the blog from transition to English in 2012 through 2013 alongside log
asciilifeform: i never saw the total blindkitten helplessness described by mircea_popescu in $thread, in a male
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: long, long ago, i worked as a sysop, similar
asciilifeform: i suspect that most of it is http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-10#1517871 . ☝︎
shinohai: This will be much to the chagrin of asciilifeform I suspect, but the darknet masterminds on reddit are warning of those that used "Auto Encryption" on there LOLZ http://archive.is/7gcTS
asciilifeform: incidentally i always wondered if the 'rule of law' derps simply take whatever comes out of 'lexis' as authentic precedent
mircea_popescu: "oh i know... have a fiat corp sell dataz about it! that'll be so still usgtronic it wikll be safe!"
mircea_popescu: no, not that part. the "i would like to interact with bitcoin" sed lizzard, "but i am afraid contact might be transformative. wut do ?"
asciilifeform: mod6: i posted this today
mod6: i need to integrate W_Mul_Comba & W_Add_D and do some of the other things suggested above.
mod6: i've tried using like 2**8, and 2**16 too iirc.
mircea_popescu: i think fgor most bright young minds it's the first encounter with "wtf bs 8bit"
mircea_popescu: "this last one took about half a day overnight while i slept"
mod6: i can certainly try some things like shifts, rotates, etc and make a part II, or III if req.
mircea_popescu: hey, i just make the plans, i don't implement them!
asciilifeform: and i doubt there ever existed 10kg of po210 .
mircea_popescu: i dun wanna
mircea_popescu: i dun wanna do mols of polonium cuz it's heavy.
mircea_popescu: am i gonna have to actually do the true maffs here
a111: Logged on 2017-07-13 18:23 mircea_popescu: i am also suspicious of the 1 max 5 common best fix.
asciilifeform: i often wonder what the practical speed and ceiling are, for 'roflcopter'
mircea_popescu: i thought he was doing a plane thing ☟︎
asciilifeform: ( famously, not even a cancellation signal receiver. or so claimed, i suspect that it's a lie )
trinque: yeah, I'm gonna join in. great idea.
a111: Logged on 2017-07-13 17:41 phf: i won't the thing to follow some pretty simple decision algorithm: here's a gps list of viable landing spots, here's a gps list of interesting targets. given your positional knowns decide and execute a flight path that'll take the aircraft through highest number of interesting targets before landing in any one of the viable landing spots. surprisingly large number of moving parts in a situation like that
mircea_popescu: and in other lulz, i put iron maiden on, whole house suddenly took this very 90s aspect.
a111: Logged on 2017-07-13 16:08 phf: i thought that proper classical education is all about learning how to discriminate? i mean western art has this value of "this guy is good, but not quite. this other guy is as good as this first guy, and he also has that not quite covered. he's the true master"
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-13#1682576 << i'm not really aware of this. fill in the $guy ? who ? ☝︎
andreicon: i'm off, cheers
mircea_popescu: i mean andreicon ^
mircea_popescu: i wouldn't expect anyone gives much of a shit about merkel and may's "europe"
shinohai: Framedragger 's I think.
mircea_popescu: and i think also saves local copies. maybe. does it ?
mircea_popescu: i should hope ssl everywhere.
mircea_popescu: not specifically, "went into weak hands" i guess would be the best way to put it.
mircea_popescu: i think BingoBoingo might have been ; and had his private chuckles hence.
asciilifeform: was i alive for that one..?
mircea_popescu: i dunno what they keep saying themselves, but it all reduces to "And furthermore, infestation is fine and lice are my friends"
asciilifeform: 'To maintain transparency, I am not a OpenBSD Foundation director, so you'd have to ask them... Encouragingly, I have heard discussion about some policy for public recognition of large donations, and I suspect that would handily cross the threshold' << lol!!
mircea_popescu: i can dig it out if you're particularly curious.
mircea_popescu: that inept "permitting fungus to grow on you" helpers bs though... i have no idea what they're thinking.
mircea_popescu: shinohai hey, i also only read newspapers after a year-ish maceration.
andreicon: idk, it's their way of staying healthy i guess
asciilifeform: i also suspect that 'no airlocks' is a usg 'helpful suggestion' to architects -- after all , airlock complicates the work of the bust-in-the-night-under-colour-of-law folx
asciilifeform: i've been to 'rich' houses. no airlock either.
mircea_popescu: so if im in the livingroom with say stoya going on the main screen and a coupla girls on the couch, discussing things right ? and there's a knock oin the door, and i send one to see who's there, and she goes and opesn the door... the neighbour now sees my other girl's tits, stoya and my pubic hair ?
mircea_popescu: dude what has happened to that place, i was there not so long ago.
a111: Logged on 2017-07-13 18:40 mircea_popescu: http://68.media.tumblr.com/2fc0db5e94b5ec60a1a6cf24f2b64ae7/tumblr_o5k91cVFvc1tgs3fno1_1280.png << this incidentally is a fine example of what i mean by http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-02#1664458 : bed-door clearance ? exactly enough to fit a standing chick, if were thin, AND NO MORE.
