asciilifeform: i'm almost surprised that mircea_popescu hasn't yet thought of , e.g., anathemizing ascii in favour of own, arbitrary arrangement of alphabet, strictly for incompatibility's sake; or to proclaim the 17-bit byte...
asciilifeform: adding arbitrary talmudiana is what microshit is made of.
asciilifeform: and you will annihilate, e.g., ascii-art schematics, if you dictate e.g. 'no 2 spaces'
asciilifeform: not all failures are immediate/detectable before it costs a battleship.
asciilifeform: (e.g. python, fortran, elsewhere, have significant-whitespaces)
asciilifeform: i guarantee that the 'autofix' will break something, somewhere, at some point, in a difficult-to-detect way.
asciilifeform: ( and naturally 0 swapolade or any other 'transparent' copying of anything at all behind the operator's back, in the whole machine, goes without saying. )
asciilifeform: ftr i dun plan to include 'secure memory'ism in ffa.
asciilifeform: the 'secure memory' thing is entirely red herring imho. all it means is that it gets marked unswappable. but i dun have swap on any of my boxes, period.
asciilifeform: phf: there's no place for 'merge' as a concept in a vtronic system.
asciilifeform: elsewhere, asciilifeform contemplates , of what is made the black soot that one finds inside servers. wish i still had where to gc/ms...
asciilifeform: a patch either applies cleanly or something is Very Wrong
asciilifeform: phf: 'ignore', 'merge', anything pertaining to either
asciilifeform: lol shinohai , will confess, asciilifeform never once met diana_coman
asciilifeform: i also wonder whether gabriel_laddel ever considered vegas. it has slightly better odds than sv nonsense, and with fewer pounds of flesh required as table stake
asciilifeform: going on 1leg is slow. esp if you have nfi that you oughta be going somewhere, and doped to 11.
asciilifeform: ( and i concede the point to mircea_popescu , boat prolly does not work for the contemplated use , in the general case )
asciilifeform: as mircea_popescu quickly figured out, asciilifeform's interest in boats is of a very peculiar kind, and not simply because he likes water.
asciilifeform: ( given as you immediately refilled btc coffer )
asciilifeform: danielpbarron: dunno, sounds like your fg dealership was and still is an effective device for converting btc into fiatola to buy bread, at slightly higher efficiency than otherwise
asciilifeform: hell knows, asciilifeform takes every chance ( rare chances...) to buy coinz
asciilifeform: danielpbarron: not too late to do the latter, neh
asciilifeform: danielpbarron: i'm thick; what means 're-buying the re-up' ?
