asciilifeform: why not just have the daemon (nonblocking) listen on /dev/ttyxxx (virtual) ?

asciilifeform: idiots who want to eat from toilet bowl, can loopback the thing into a tx gen on same box.

ben_vulpes: talk to the binary running on the machine.
asciilifeform: undata: i suggested it, but turns out it would take some actual work
undata: are you guys hacking the rpc bits out of bitcoind?
TheNewDeal: This is a travesty
asciilifeform: could've sworn BingoBoingo discussed this.
TheNewDeal: The people that I would drink and play these card games with typically arent the chess sort. Although I do play Catan with another set of friends, and we often drink while playing
asciilifeform can't really picture woman playing this game
TheNewDeal: it's mostly a ploy to get the women to drink as much as the men
kakobrekla: master will have tolerance.
asciilifeform: auto-equalization of strength, at least, in theory
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: the only 'drinking game' that ever made sense to me was the chess set with the hollow pieces
kakobrekla: "drinking game" - never understood this concept.

asciilifeform: two men in an entirely dark room, with nagants, take turns calling out 'cuckoo'

TheNewDeal: but seriously, suicide rates would probably go up if people switched from shotgun to nail gun
TheNewDeal: true, did not know the story
asciilifeform: i tell this story because english speakers invariably speak of 'russian roulette' without knowing this tidbit.
TheNewDeal: was more of a euphemism, not meant to be literal
asciilifeform: the 'correct' (honest) way to play was to pull trigger while spinning.
asciilifeform: so folks would play (on a bet, naturally) with opponent who did not know this.
asciilifeform: the way it was built, the ratchet was not engaged when drum was spinning. a single round would settle to the bottom (opposite of barrel line.)
asciilifeform: TheNewDeal: they're reasonably common in usa. the revelation: one could cheat.
undata: haha, "russian roulette at shotgun odds" << I will use this to describe a fucked situation later.
asciilifeform: TheNewDeal: ever see 'nagant' revolver? the item 'russian roulette' was originally played with.
TheNewDeal: but if you're going to play russian roulette and hope to come out alive, good luck with your odds
asciilifeform: afaik, normally poor shotgun technique
asciilifeform: ah those are SOP
