assbot: Phineas Gage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
undata: or you just end up this guy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phineas_Gage
asciilifeform: not really useful other than against self or a hogtied 'client'
undata: nailgun seems like a good way to bleed out slowly
undata: TheNewDeal: sure fatal wounds but if you're offing yourself, aren't there quicker ways?
asciilifeform: cazalla: nailgun does not have a barrel in the usual sense.
TheNewDeal: that's not what the talk was about
asciilifeform: nubbins`: most of that crud really does not belong on a printed page.
cazalla: TheNewDeal, you know that's not even an option here for if you used it on an intruder, you would need to explain "legitimate use" for keeping a nailgun next to your bed or in bedroom
undata: maybe paper wallets provided there's anywhere to spend one in person (there isn't)
jurov: give them microscopes!
nubbins`: too true :/
undata: and they will spend it how?
assbot: GiveDirectly claims Aid system is broken and the most efficient aid system is ... giving direct cash to the poor using *new technology* . Should we mail them? : Bitcoin
undata: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2k9v8q/givedirectly_claims_aid_system_is_broken_and_the/ << LOOOL advocating giving bitcoin to the poor
asciilifeform: nubbins` et al can easily answer questions like that on his own
TheNewDeal: in reference to the talk about nail guns before, they would definitely be useful as a weapon for inflicting fatal wounds, and they can be purchased at your local hardware store. my opinion
asciilifeform: includes various junk though.
asciilifeform: 26321 total.
nubbins`: asciilifeform what's the current line count?
jurov: but i consider this effor immensely useful
asciilifeform: well - the spittoon is here. shiny, new, brass. spit away, gentlemen.
jurov: sadly no secret mods here. my wet dreams are dedicated to haskoin
ben_vulpes: i doubt it, but who can ever tell.
asciilifeform wonders if this escapade will progress much faster than one could reasonably expect, on account of people like jurov, mircea_popescu, ben_vulpes - who actually use bitcoin 'in anger' - succumbing to the temptation to release some of their secret mods.
nubbins`: he barfed all over Ted's bass after
nubbins`: <+cazalla> someone is blocking the fire exit <<< that's actually the guitarist
asciilifeform: but the canonical copy (to the extent this term makes sense here) should probably be distributed via jurov's turdatron.
asciilifeform would like to turn this into an unofficial 'gentoo' overlay at some point
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: tooling question: when working on the actual c files, should i be working in a parallel directory and then diff -uNr original_dir my_dir > patch.diff?
jurov: <asciilifeform> turdomatic broadcast station ready? << on it
bounce: blink got deimplemented to the point that people're reimplementing it with javascript.
bounce doesn't object to ascii-only. 80 cols max while at it please.
jurov: <mircea_popescu> lol poor nano is running out of red ink and font thickness << there's always the blink tag
bounce: venue people's job to check all fire exits before the party starts and keep 'em open during, too.
asciilifeform solved this by abolishing all non-ascii crud from package, would like to suggest this as a permanent condition
cazalla: someone is blocking the fire exit
bounce: used it often enough. seems to work reasonably well.
nubbins`: i swear that's me beside the bright yellow light
assbot: imgur: the simple image sharer
nubbins`: cazalla only the frequencies i don't really use
cazalla: well how much did they remove nubbins`
nubbins`: and the room fell silent
asciilifeform: frozen turd on lathe.
thestringpuller: the turd is polished?
nubbins`: asciilifeform nod. your chicken recipe follows a nice format too
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: tried this, was disappointed
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: next step is to coerce 'git' into pooping out sane patch
asciilifeform: nubbins`: surgery was minor shave. just to demonstrate concept of what kind of turd jurov's turdomatic ought to accept
nubbins`: bitcoin foundation charter looks good, i may propose some minor changes when i get a chance to give it another read
asciilifeform wonders what to do if he finds, well, an anal orifice
asciilifeform: and the turd's 'GetPerformanceCounter()' actually uses unix epoch time on non-winblows systems.
bounce: but hey, maybe he just likes that 1995 look, who knows
bounce: re nanotube running out of red, bit of a sign the communication isn't working, so more of the same isn't really the proper answer.
asciilifeform: need test-shitter ?
ben_vulpes: i and boys slave in golden cage, fabbing golden toilets
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes manufactures fine golden toilets ?
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> decadent rich << describes clients and their target customers quite well
asciilifeform: ah, and, is the turdomatic broadcast station ready? (jurov ?)
asciilifeform: layer of protection could be very useful for a lot of people in the future, the way things are going in most of the world. We do have the stripper for the S-64 that strips the hidden data from a StegoSaur file, but it really should go both ways."'
asciilifeform: '...since there're SO many Sega 64s floating around in the States and indeed, the world, there's probably many people alive today who wouldn't be if their governments could crack their secure messages. I'm told that at least two democratic revolutions were made possible, in part, due to PGP S-64. Right now, myself and several others are attempting to create a version of StegoSaur for the S-64. That one extra
asciilifeform: wasn't it illegal to have a game machine with rng << reminds me of...
cazalla: ;;later tell fivezerotwo i was asleep, email or say whatever it is you want to say in pm
gribble: fivezerotwo was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 1 day, 18 hours, 11 minutes, and 14 seconds ago: <fivezerotwo> That's doubtful, perhaps you got banned
Adlai: sometimes the line between retard and genius blurs: https://i.imgur.com/m09yFoF.mp4
mircea_popescu: http://bitcoin-otc.com/newsite/viewratingdetail.php?nick=mircea_popescu <<< lol poor nano is running out of red ink and font thickness
cazalla: while i was sleeping "fivezerotwo> let's talk" has he been around?
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: at any rate, this is doubly funny to me, given that i grew up associating apple hardware with 'decadent rich'
asciilifeform likes this concept
mircea_popescu: "and the snake then tempted eve to upgrade"
cazalla: Mikayla, how is that harsh? i just said i don't really care, i just go for low hanging troll fruits
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: north apple is best apple << that'd be soviet 'agat' computer ?
mircea_popescu: cazalla well then, i got a confession to make.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform wasn't it illegal to have a game machine with rng ?
asciilifeform: would be hilarious to port the 'red' half of bitcoind to that.
cazalla: mircea_popescu, fwiw, even if you were the biggest blackest nigger in all of the lands, i'd still come here each day and listen
ben_vulpes: turds in turds on turds
Mikayla: deep and thought provoking for less than a minute vid
mircea_popescu: i've yet to see a mixed couple on the street
mircea_popescu: cazalla you'd prolly love argentina. basically their citizenship criteria is "are you black ?", and black people are stuck doing street vending.
asciilifeform: build is now taking forever << wai wat!? takes ~3 minutes on my (ancient, circa '07) box
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes moar like "lemme pull on that plunger. sims are for sissies anyway."
undata: mircea_popescu: so tiny, k
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: "let me fly the plane! i've got like 20 sim hours!"
undata: anybody know how big the testnet blockchain is?
mircea_popescu: srsly, just because i can do most of the tasks one can do with a computer does not mean im particularly good at it.
cazalla: mircea_popescu, you're right, i imagine the few blacks that are here get a lot of white wimminz
ben_vulpes: wrote my own patch ripping out upnp dependency, build is now taking forever.
asciilifeform: anyone who can't build that one, has problems, given as it is almost virginal
PinkPosixPXE: 12:51 <+Adlai> why does the damn thing say "blockchain.info" though >_< << It says "Verify Balance at" (on top) then "Blockchain.info" at the bottom, for idiots I suppose.
asciilifeform: anybody else here built the test turd?
mircea_popescu: cazalla to recycle an argument from above, who is more likely to fellate a hippo ? people in the savannah, who get it up the ass all the time anyway, or people in new york ?
cazalla: mircea_popescu: australia sucks <<< not rly, no blacks to steal white wimminz
mircea_popescu: notrly, it just gives responsibility to not breaking the page to the author of the message
punkman: <pre> solves that
Adlai can't tell whether "popescuity" is related to pope or promiscuity, or both
mircea_popescu: well then you'll have to filter html out of them
punkman: mircea_popescu: I was thinking I could be grabbing reports straight from comments, so you don't have to make pastebins
mircea_popescu: the thing copumpkin was asking for a while back :D
asciilifeform: over here, they give'em to folks who've gone bankrupt and lowered into pederasty on account of it
