asciilifeform: phf: when the thing is tall enough, it becomes necessary to intelligently adjust the chair/table.

danielpbarron: phf, it's no cool guy who would ditch her afterwards
danielpbarron: phf, yes.

asciilifeform: phf: i was thinking of 'civilian' accts.
asciilifeform: phf: re visa thing, it is famous.
asciilifeform: phf: the 'they keep your closed acct secretly open so that spammers, in league with bank, can keep charging it' is not in any contract afaik.
mircea_popescu: phf depends. you mean "the overdraft thing" as a feature to serve you, or as a feature to serve them ?
mircea_popescu: phf to put it in these terms, your high opinion of your insurance is mostly built on you not having had anything covered.
asciilifeform: phf: supposedly. i have not tested the 'world' part, dun particularly relish feeding card skimmer debit card
asciilifeform: phf: mine just refunds all atm fee.
asciilifeform: phf: what's special about hsbc ?
a111: Logged on 2016-08-14 19:12 phf: it's like if bloomberg terminals were spewing "news" about some guy opening a pizza joint for $5k that he borrowed from his friends, like wtf
a111: Logged on 2016-08-14 18:50 phf: well, there is the wot, though nobody here as far as i know is buying/selling. there was also bitcoin-otc, which from what i hear died. i actually tried buying 10btc from a guy that was in bitcoin-otc wot, but we were l3, and he understandably bulked
a111: Logged on 2016-08-14 18:47 phf: Framedragger: i was saying hawala as an alternative to bitcoin. that was when we were looking closely at the implementation and finding all kinds of insanity. hawala is a system for tracking long term exposure, and you forego collateral because you have "fuck same woman" wot (i suspect there's still collateral involved when exposure is too high). you don't need hawal when you have near instant calls.
asciilifeform: phf: pertinent to thread, possibly
asciilifeform: phf: 'ложечки—то нашлись, но осадок остался!' (tm) (r)
asciilifeform: phf: neato
asciilifeform: phf: ever read my ancient piece - http://www.loper-os.org/?p=939 ?
asciilifeform: phf: same
asciilifeform: ah ty phf .
asciilifeform: phf et al: did i ~and~ the log somehow get netsplit, and miss a thread, or is the hawala thing a continuation of pm or whatever
a111: Logged on 2016-04-04 16:22 phf: given the state of things, i'm not convinced that hawala is the worst we can do
shinohai: ben_vulpes: i didn't have to do anything to get it all to work besides diff and apply phf 's patch and directions
a111: Logged on 2016-08-14 05:12 ben_vulpes: phf, shinohai, trinque, asciilifeform, mircea_popescu: i elected to nuke the "stale comments" thing, i'd be much obliged if any of y'all have a patch for that. in exchange i've got a patch on wp-comments.php for the suffix trick, not that it's hard or anything

mircea_popescu: (the agreement i inferred to have with phf as a result of that statement was "it's not even clear what sort of hyperexponential is involved, it grows so fast". we don't have any sort of upper bounds.)
mircea_popescu: i said "phf the problem becomes rapidly complex as the tasks involved go above "i would like my snatch to not stink"". this is a statement of the nature of, "geometry becomes rapidly longer as the number of possible dimensions goes above 1". you said "and i never for a moment disagreed with 'snatch stinks? yer poor & stupid'". this is a statement of the nature of "if you only describe one dimension, you suck at geometry". thi
mircea_popescu: phf the problem becomes rapidly complex as the tasks involved go above "i would like my snatch to not stink"
mircea_popescu: phf 6mn tho ? i mean... that nicole whatever chick, she did it for free!
ben_vulpes: phf: "great"
mircea_popescu: phf gotta cut the old folks some slack ; for them getting slobber on ballsack is a lifechanging sort of event.
a111: Logged on 2016-03-14 16:33 phf: nubbins`: it's a shame that you chose this approach for your denouncement. some people are here (myself, maybe ascii) not to make money, but to fuck around with novel ways of doing things. it would've been nifty if, as a "lord" if you will, you picked up the game and made your accusations formal, maybe solicited a judge from the wot, made it interesting somehow! you don't have to obviously, but the approach that you chose was basic and
a111: Logged on 2016-08-12 13:38 mircea_popescu: phf and this because kim totally fucking won the assculture war.
mircea_popescu: phf this "you already know all knowledge, just, you know, wash" is ridiculous enough, but nowhere the ridiculousness is in starker evidence than in the harem. "so i washed, can i bellydance yet ?" "no, wash more."
mircea_popescu: phf but your argument fundamentally is "there's no need for communication because the essence of all things is in all things", which is what that is.
gabriel_laddel: phf: I just want the fking thing to work and make me some money.
mircea_popescu: phf the fundamental problem here is that you misuse words. "to resolve on the basis of" requires a basis, which is to say, something shared. whether right or wrong - i can resolve quantum physics disputes on the basis of coran suras if need be. yet your thing is "this is cool so should be basis". how cool it is has no bearing on how shared it is, you know ?
a111: Logged on 2016-08-12 15:19 mircea_popescu: phf define for me the concept of "bridged on architectural grounds"
mircea_popescu: phf wait, how does this work ? i recall i sent you a batch, or was there a problem there ?
asciilifeform: iirc phf has whole set in there
mircea_popescu: phf you importing those already!!11
mircea_popescu: phf define for me the concept of "bridged on architectural grounds" ☟︎
mircea_popescu: well so then do you understand what phf means about "Welcome to 2002" ?
gabriel_laddel: phf: I intend to do away with the whole notion of "client & server" in rendering for CLIM
mircea_popescu: phf he means you can't use them without x, integrated.
gabriel_laddel: phf: that's not what I'm saying. truetype is in CL. McCLIM is 100% CL. But it /communicates/ with X, which has cario and all this other nonsense integrated with it, and it's causing problems.
gabriel_laddel: phf: sorry, what exactly is unclear about what I'm saying?
asciilifeform: phf: possibly it got inserted because the unusably slow thing were thrown out ?
gabriel_laddel: phf: no.
mircea_popescu: lol. you heard the man phf ; gotta have your tool.
gabriel_laddel: phf: there is no search right now and it makes the whole development cycle hellish
gabriel_laddel: phf: is your logging engine open source / can it be so that we can have less shit logs on #clim?
mircea_popescu: thanks phf, i have been entertained by last night's party
mircea_popescu: phf and this because kim totally fucking won the assculture war. ☟︎
asciilifeform: (if anyone has handy link - phf ? - post plox.)
trinque: phf: saw that :) gabriel needs to hang around moar.
mircea_popescu: lol what is that phf ?
mircea_popescu: phf the idea of course being that eventually this will grow into actual routing,
trinque: phf │ well, with custom hosts you can just type http://phf in your browser. that'll be kind of cool << ben_vulpes and I were talking about this earlier
mircea_popescu: phf i dunno why the fuck i'd type "http".
phf: well, with custom hosts you can just type http://phf in your browser. that'll be kind of cool
mircea_popescu: phf the sort of comments he gets on his blog never cease to amaze me.
asciilifeform: phf: fresh gas mask canister recommended.
asciilifeform: phf: http://www.loper-os.org/?p=46 and http://www.loper-os.org/?p=55 mostly.
asciilifeform: phf: aha i have a 31111111111117 s1t3 with a scanned copy of sussman's 'scheme83' !1111 dunforget.
mircea_popescu: phf o.O
trinque: asciilifeform: isn't, but I can package it up later. I hand-applied phf's patch to a custom skin mangled from the "classic" skin.
trinque: asciilifeform: phf contributed some code that was modified a bit and placed in ircbot
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-11#1518471 << this is mighty spiffy trinque. is this based on phf's gadget, or a new thing ? ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2016-08-11 15:11 phf: i never grok why some of these javascript libraries don't just provide a demo console. "everything you need is loaded on this page, feel free to run your browser's dev console"
asciilifeform: phf: link to which key ?
asciilifeform: phf: it would appear that openwhateverjs supports all of the basic knobs, but the protonmail idiocy did not bother to expose them
asciilifeform: phf: the ones linked earlier (and now referred to in phuctor faq) do.
ben_vulpes: phf: i will kick your bot over while you're at the burn if nobody else has/will step forward ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2016-08-10 22:33 phf: one guy was convinced we'll let him open a uk department (he's ~support~, answers tickets, but has a degree in business something or other), wouldn't let the thought go even after told no multiple times. he would schedule meetings on behalf of company with various uk foundations, etc. he had a meeting with richard branson as part of handful "young entrepreneurs", to talk about, yes, moving the company to uk.
BingoBoingo: <phf> "no external links unless they are in mp's host file" << Not quite, but basically no links to places spamzors like such as youtube/tumblr/etc without pretty pleasing an approval right after comment is submitted.
mircea_popescu: phf> ben_vulpes: that video is now << the logs prevail.
mircea_popescu: phf the unending lulz of gunner being "pulemetchik" will never be explained.
ben_vulpes: phf: fired whole department? well done
ben_vulpes: phf: yeah, p. sick of services biz.
asciilifeform: phf: iirc mircea_popescu quoted a ro version of this.
asciilifeform: phf: these dun look like permafrost wastelands to me..
mircea_popescu: lmao! I BLAME PHF FOR FREENODE OUTAGE TOMORROW.
