a111: Logged on 2018-10-02 01:24 mircea_popescu: so you know, "usa is the powerfulest thing ever" "reheheally" / "oh, #metoo matters" "where ?" and so on ad infinitum.
a111: Logged on 2018-08-22 14:23 asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: fwiw they always Officially print 'when crossing the border' (recall the ru d00d kidnapped 'in spain' etc.) it's the new 'shot while escape'.
a111: Logged on 2019-05-27 21:35 diana_coman: in other stepping-in-all-the-holes : it seems I found a fail-mode of mp-wp browser interface namely if one pastes the content of a post first and only then (possibly after it rushes to quick save it or whatevers) the title, it fails miserably as it apparently tries to save it with title "" (notwithstanding that no, it should not, there is actually a title to it)

a111: Logged on 2019-06-08 11:49 mircea_popescu: in other news, the russkis apparently made a vampire-succubus-orc mod for king's bounty while nobody was looking.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it did, i even got 'portal' to run at one pt
asciilifeform: i dun expect the latter have any bidirectional connection to the former, any moar than the rats which eat mircea_popescu's leftovers in dumpster, have any effect on mircea_popescu's kitchen per se
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu iirc had a piece re why poker , how it was a social circle thing for the rich, and then not. so, unsurprise, coin machines
a111: Logged on 2019-06-06 07:21 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-05#1917393 << then briefly thereafter, fold altogether, once ebay figures them out.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this is moar 'life cycle of fruit fly' than 'ancient stones' imho
asciilifeform: iirc mircea_popescu had piece where he got hold of a lolpad or the like, installed buncha '2 chinese d00dz on a napkin'-type gamez, and 6mo later all 'eggog, cannot connect to serv' etc
asciilifeform: ty diana_coman . happy to hear that it was edible ( iirc yours is the 1st report. )
asciilifeform: ( re eulora, as i currently understand diana_coman's main work atm is an excavation, similar to trb circa '15, of heathen coad )
asciilifeform: diana_coman: this was the design objective, yes. is meant for people to eat.
asciilifeform: ffa is much smaller , indeed, item than diana_coman's 3d lib dig
asciilifeform: diana_coman: right, this was my inference from the orig article, your run time includes the wait for fg to emit
asciilifeform: since mircea_popescu mentioned 'lyso-fg' -- ftr if mircea_popescu ever comes to conclusion that we oughta bake one, it's all drawn up.
asciilifeform: mechanism, for thread-completeness.
asciilifeform: for systems like mircea_popescu's eulora rsa tho, possibly one'd want >7.5kB/s , but possibly also suffices.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in retrospect, prolly we oughta have made'em daisy-chainable. w/out bufferism it is somewhat tricky to use multiple fg to get fatter stream.
asciilifeform: ( btw mircea_popescu in old thread correctly intuited that you Do Not Want to buffer an fg, but i dun think either of us ever wrote explicitly why )
a111: Logged on 2019-06-06 15:46 asciilifeform: loox like diana_coman also used 2048b primes in test of diana_comantronic system ; 'A relatively short test run obtained 40 random primes of 2048 bits each in 13274 seconds in total (3.7 hours) meaning on average 331.85 seconds per prime (~6 minutes)' and diana_coman's 'winner' gets 16 shots; but caveats, a) we have diff iron
nicoleci: mircea_popescu, yes, Master
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: '90s, to asciilifeform , era synonymous with the troo game.
asciilifeform: fwiw asciilifeform's 'i'ma build gamez box!11' adventure from 2y ago, ended very similarly to mircea_popescu's : that box is cold nao an' waiting for when asciilifeform next time needs to route a pcb
a111: Logged on 2019-06-06 06:39 mircea_popescu: hmm, did i even recount the sad story of that typically moronic clerk ?
asciilifeform doesn't have quite all of mircea_popescu's www in l0 braincache; it's pretty heavy
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu ^
asciilifeform: potentially -- entirely diff. dope, in effect... if only gabriel_laddel were here, could answer this puzzler.
asciilifeform: ... evidently this is the 'new gen' of dope people, as pictured in mircea_popescu's piece
a111: Logged on 2019-06-06 11:31 mircea_popescu: is this wrong, should i jus tstfu so as not to ruin the small trades for interested ppls ?
a111: Logged on 2019-06-06 11:33 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, BingoBoingo how's the status, are you rather short or rather long dubaloo liquidity ?

asciilifeform could've sworn there was a thread, and not long ago, where diana_coman said on what iron this was done. but cannot nao find it in O(1) !
asciilifeform: iirc -- it is possible to run diana_coman's mechanism from a bottle. sadly i dun have enuff hands just nao , to attempt
asciilifeform: s b) diana_coman was using a live fg rather than bottle
asciilifeform: loox like diana_coman also used 2048b primes in test of diana_comantronic system ; 'A relatively short test run obtained 40 random primes of 2048 bits each in 13274 seconds in total (3.7 hours) meaning on average 331.85 seconds per prime (~6 minutes)' and diana_coman's 'winner' gets 16 shots; but caveats, a) we have diff iron ☟︎
asciilifeform digs for diana_coman's...

a111: Logged on 2019-06-06 08:10 mircea_popescu: in other lulz, it's funny how "sleek, modern" rounder corners etc bla bla always goes AWAY from productivity. firefox version 5 mn, five years ago or so i last looked, had a bar for url and a bar for search. firefox 4bn, latest vintage as of a few days ago -- no longer search bar. url bar only.
a111: Logged on 2019-06-06 07:30 mircea_popescu: i guess that means the forbearance window's also closed on that stjohn_piano_2 dork.

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-06#1917441 << this is moar or less asciilifeform's exact position. mircea_popescu i rec. to glance at ch18, it has good picture of this (i.e. reader is not offered 'use this tape', is offered 'here's how to bake a primegen' ; instead of 'here's magic constant', given 'here's how it is made' etc ) ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2017-08-16 17:30 mircea_popescu: when i was about six or so, visiting some relatives who had a farm, i discovered a romanian bareneck (kind of chicken) chick drowning in the sty efflux. so i picked it out, and it was a pet for a year or so and then made a great soup. rooster, too.
a111: Logged on 2019-06-06 07:15 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-05#1917383 << so hopefully you had enough sense to create relationships and undermine the usgistani "platform" rather than the converse, undermine your own sanity to feed usgistani "platform" your own guts ?

a111: Logged on 2019-05-28 22:16 mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, thinkign about it, there's just no way to have a proper trb without the rainbows. and yes it'd be 32 gb, but so what. the point stands, there is a minimal bitcoin box.

mircea_popescu: diana_coman, tried, tested, known not to work, nevertheless "tested" again by every new cuntlet, on usual theory, "this idiocy is tested so often it must be good sense".

mircea_popescu: diana_coman, no, that's exactly what i'm saying. they wanted to "make money" sitting rather than to make money making money.
lobbesbot: mircea_popescu: The operation succeeded.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, sure. of course it will.
a111: Logged on 2018-05-05 21:05 mircea_popescu: cuz it's never dark, from inside. the amusing situation of classical eschatology is that lucifer simply forked the chain, and as best can tell is a very credible and not at all falen angel.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: I suspect the game will ...break if one plays it seriously; like most anything "done"

a111: Logged on 2018-05-21 22:21 ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: it doesn't make sense to put delicate items acquired with much suffering like BingoBoingo's cedula immediately into the statists hopper (localbitcoins demands "an ID" to post ads), when one can pick from the sale offers and operate on the side of the transaction where id is not asked for

diana_coman: stjohn_piano_2: note the dissonance in your approach - if you want reputation here, you need to do stuff that is useful here (there's a long list of such stuff that needs doing, pick, start on it and document as you go/ask politely and intelligently for help when you need it); onth if you want "reputation" for landing a programming job irl, dropping links here won't help (I doubt the Edgecase thing will help either but that's entirely up to
