asciilifeform: because ~same level of sinkage towards africa.☟︎
asciilifeform: reminds me, when su was a going concern, 'классическое образование' usually referred to pre-1917 gymnasium, latin, greek, etc. but apparently ~today~ folx on ru net refer to su-era school as classical.
asciilifeform: but compared with current wordprocessor folx, betcha d00d knew some elementary grammar, say.
asciilifeform: gotta wonder why by hand. 'luxor centre' charged a funbux too much ?
asciilifeform: tho one could posit that single generation of whatever organism 'counts' moar post-1945. prior, most mutation was afaik accounted for by k40
asciilifeform: ( renewed interest in phages, since '90s, because -- quite unlike synthetic antibacterial -- no meaningful resistance, the cat and mouse have been fighting for million+ yr )
asciilifeform: ftr supposed 'fpga' with built-in periphs are simply proprietary gluetraps.
asciilifeform: ( you wouldn't call an 'implementation' of e.g. ppc cpu that simply uses xilinx 'virtex' series' built-in ppc core, an implementation. apply same rule to pci.)
asciilifeform: i specifically exclude devices like xilinx and altera series with ~built-in~ pcie -- these are not, properly speaking, fpga
asciilifeform: but meanwhile-er, in not-at-all-noose, asciilifeform briefly looked into the question of what-would-it-take to make a pci-e FG . found ( e.g. https://archive.is/dGtBI and elsewhere, for the curious ) that it is quite impossible to do with lattice 'ice' or any other small fpga; the complexity is bookcase-length ( supposing one could even ~get~ the req'd docs, many are not only payware but protected via disinfo-flooding )
asciilifeform: ( the actual domain loads the thing. the nfs domain also loads. but each gets different ip ~every hour , they have in-house 1990s-era homebrew crapflare item )
asciilifeform: often the link pops up hour or moar after the invocation, and i end up clicking, expecting traditional (i.e. plaintext) deedbot material☟︎
asciilifeform: trinque: i've wondered for some time , is the thing where your walletron throws pgpciphered matter into the greater void, as in e.g. http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-12#1749739 , without the addressee's name in the line -- deliberate design choice ?☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: Obama White House tweeted out his earliest tweets, however, conveying the false impression that signing up was easy ...'
asciilifeform: 'He also unwittingly became caught up in the news in 2013 when he attempted to sign up for health insurance on HealthCare.gov, the then-new website for Obamacare. He described the experience in a series of tweets, noting at first that he was successful in setting up an account. But then he ran into problems in completing the sign up, mirroring the experience of millions of users, who faced glitches in the site’s earliest days. The
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: maybe at some point we auction prototype rng ( asciilifeform has a few , mircea_popescu also, and somebody else i think )
asciilifeform: oh hey the auction thing is interesting
asciilifeform: they won't swivel ( or eventually, for that matter , turn ) if not lubricated. and mircea_popescu did find that monkeystani folx dun believe in maintenance..
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: was it one of those affairs where the windmills swivel ?
asciilifeform did picture mircea_popescu as having a dedicated 'muhahahahaha' balcony
