asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: i dun normally even say anything re rubbish posts, but this one is worthy of reddit.
jhvh1: asciilifeform: I have not seen veen.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu> the parallels with diana_coman eating away at the ps atrocity for minigame are striking, by the way. <- ha, catching up with the logs and I wanted to say precisely that!
mircea_popescu: aaanyway, let dorks figure out their own shit, what am i, free consultancy inc ?
mircea_popescu: lemme guess, pantsuit clown hitmen ? (in subsidiary, how can something be "discredited" "Conspiracy theories" before i even got to hear about it ? there's no minimum interval for discreditation ?)
asciilifeform: and incidentally i have the storage thing .
asciilifeform: this was how i ended up entirely setting bozo bit on shitoshi's cpp turd.
mircea_popescu: dood, no need to butthurt, i'm not proposing something liek wires should not exist.
asciilifeform: sometimes i gotta wonder why i even bother to do experiments, when we could just write down mircea_popescu's hypothesis as result.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform check out the dividends of intelligence. discussion with random brat was not worth having, until i had it, and then recounted it, and now it's worth it -- plenty of people who want to be writers or bloggers or whatever but the head doesn't help them would gladly pay moneyz for such "Content" as idle chatter hath produced.
trinque: phf: ftr, if ya stop the "now I think you're lying" when I'm an idiot, could shake your hand.
trinque might be a dumb guy, but can't remember the last time I lied.
trinque: clearly so. and behold, phf and I can't seem to parse messages, probably both wondering what the fuck the other intends by the character
mircea_popescu: what, am i going to become them ? take a more expensive, more exquisite path to the same derealization ? noty.
mircea_popescu: but, the reason i'm not nearly as "entomology"-inclined as moist folks here is because i have a very heavy undercurrent of "hey mr p! you gotta talk to his one."
mircea_popescu: i'm not that into fresh tbh.
asciilifeform: i suppose you can have weekly-fresh-cunts XOR only-ever-talking-to-people-who-are-people ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i have a specialized service.
mircea_popescu: i don't mean, "read and comprehend and allign mental space to it", no way. just the comprehend would be extra, in the sense of i dunno, a fucking ferrari. no, just you know, clicking on it and then forgetting about the tab. something like that.
mircea_popescu: yes. in so many words, exactly, and i also bet you that not only she didn't read the link, but she imagines that if she had read it she'd be doing me a favour, and more properly speaking she should be paid to read it.
mircea_popescu: no, no, they don't care about the physical reality. the mental articulation is "1. i have claim ; 2. mommy makes good".
mircea_popescu: this is how they argue with their insignificant others : "oh, i was miss ohio state when i married oyu! i want a couch!"
asciilifeform: i still dun get why the usd exchange rate of btc would matter to the mtgox proceedings
asciilifeform: and i had nfi that there were reddit terminals in jp jail
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nothing specific. just likew "Karpeles is working on a solution!". what, i can run for miss dumbland just as well as a fat fuck.
mircea_popescu: the internet really made it obvious i actually don't like people.
mircea_popescu: i suppose if you're going to be an ustardian empire spearhead, it helps to have no shame and no memory.
mircea_popescu: that silbert schmuck is on his what, 5th "oh, i will change the world" hear him roar only to be used as a cum rag ?
ben_vulpes: i admired the nips' commitment to the handsfree experience when i visited
asciilifeform finds the history of the shitter a fascinating thing, in that it followed in same pattern as, e.g., small arms -- i.e. went through a peak of RIDICULOUS complexity before finally simplified into modern form.
asciilifeform: hm i assumed it was, given the stories
ben_vulpes: although i have like three cans of the mighty blaster to get through
ben_vulpes: i feel like mircea_popescu with the washing machine
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: Danco HYR271T looks sorta like what i've here
ben_vulpes: i'm just paging through bezosmart
asciilifeform: i have a generic chinese one
asciilifeform: i have nfi who makes these where ben_vulpes lives
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i install these everywhere i move into
hanbot: sure, i'll snap one next i'm by there
asciilifeform: hanbot: this is still lulzy given as i was quite certain that all foreign rat shacks used the brand 'tandy' and vanished in late '80s
a111: Logged on 2017-05-17 20:48 asciilifeform: not only this: the very same ratshack actually died once (i went to the same liquidation sales, bought the furniture, etc) and then somehow came BACK from the grave, (no prizes for guessing how -- printolade) undead, to live for another 3y
hanbot: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-17#1657550 << searching (to no avail!) for a non-es keyboard the other day, i ran into, and did a double-take of, a radio shack here in cr. i had no idea they'd even squeaked by. no liquidation here (yet?). ☝︎
asciilifeform: hey, dunlookatme, i reccfltube my eizos...
asciilifeform: on other hand, i've never owned an entire goat, so cannot claim to be first class goat cook.
mircea_popescu: i hear it made india fabulously wealthy.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform could. i have this magic want which takes the "would" away.
mircea_popescu: wait until i point out i've never met anyone under 30 who both spoke english and could properly butcher a goat.
mircea_popescu: in fairness i never met a 20something usian who could fix a toilet.
ben_vulpes: nah, i'm in a death metal and pilsner sort of mood
trinque: m'yeah, I always thought "computer music" was an invitation for *more* creative beat
ben_vulpes: miserable pile of bricks in which i rent cubic feet for parking of butt while toiling in the mines
ben_vulpes: someone broke the toilet i fixed
Framedragger: that's so crazy, literally ~5h ago i visited http://www.btcalpha.com/blog/2014/panacea-opens-the-books/ through some link on trilema or somewhere
shinohai: I actually like trinque 's wot viewer better tho
Framedragger: heh they describe the key negotiation etc in sorta-detail on their website, which is probably *a first* https://www.connect.im/faqs?faq_category_id=5 i mean, don't use this, but it's refreshing to see this (in broken english no less lol)
mircea_popescu: contact id based on pubkey, i have nfi why they think it dun leak metadata ; also no idea why they bundled tor in it.
mircea_popescu: check him out, i give him the string to grep, he doesn't, then wants me to control his viewport.
asciilifeform: is all i get
mircea_popescu: chick has a skype, AND a tox thing (it's in the logs) AND a "ricochet" item which i never saw before but seems to make some tall claims.
a111: Logged on 2017-05-23 13:18 diana_coman: it's ok, I hear they got now a CS conference in Buenos Aires and they get therefore to steal participants' laptops,it's all a craze
trinque: I can also see the wisdom in seeing oneself as by nature, a lying sack of shit, requiring discipline to forge a human from the clay.
trinque: former's sort of an odd "I will wear weighted clothing and thus be stronger"... the "forgiveness of sin" thing I suppose lets one take the weights off time to time.
trinque: I take in danielpbarron's, when he speaks of it, that it is a knotted rope with which he beats himself. the other folks babbling about it, it's a damned gold star of "I am god's child"
a111: Logged on 2016-12-21 18:32 mircea_popescu: because no, words don't "have meanings". your meanings for ANY WORD are a function of ALL THE OTHER WORDS YOU KNOW. which is why my definitions regularily blow out english dictionaries, wikipedia and other sources of "wisdom" out of the water - i know more words, and in this knowledge i know all the words i know ~better~. infinitely and irreproducibly so.
mircea_popescu: i suppose the retrospective correct analysis is, 1. you get a bunch of elite people get together (everyone who made the trip was elite -- else they couldn't afford the significant proceedings ; this includes the slaves, for the same reason -- if they weren't 10s nobody'd have taken them across and that's what in africa cca then it meant to be elite) ; 2. they have no way to communicate, for lack of language (because language
trinque: though if danielpbarron's version caught on I'd much prefer that to teh alternatives
trinque: asciilifeform: if considered earnestly I have to blame the clown-suit socialism and decadent descendents
mircea_popescu: +ticas tetonas. wtf, mexicans. i can buy saddlebags at the store.
mircea_popescu: i like the weather here, what.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i am a being of ~pure energy, my presence is chiefly nonphysical!
trinque: I cannot believe the fucking squander
trinque: I recall the smell of tragedy around the italian side of family; it was the gnarled vestige of something that would claim lineage back to old mancinus
trinque: the lady I'm speaking of; grandfather would be the related one
trinque: maybe why I give too much weight to the biological; italians are racist as hell after all
trinque: well in the argie case, mixed with indigenous whatever, I guess.
trinque: I dunno that so much agency is involved, though. These are the descendents of empty creatures that used to be animated by the flow of will from their owners.
mircea_popescu: you remember what i'm talking about, i'm sure.
trinque: I can't imagine it's unlike the pretenders at this or that javascript con
diana_coman: it's ok, I hear they got now a CS conference in Buenos Aires and they get therefore to steal participants' laptops,it's all a craze ☟︎
trinque: girl's a nanny to this derpy liberal fambly, shiftless dad says to breadwinner surgeon mother "something something web wallet oh also I have this shitty antminer". mother immediately asks "how will they tax it though". girl asks whether he actually holds the private keys, rolls eyes.
mircea_popescu: and it goes the same everywhere. hurr durr i'm poor but i trhink i;m smart. and i want bitcoin. mp made eulora ? you knopw what ? i'll fuck around with nothing in particular, see what uppity tortilla is going, there's plenty of time. mp will be around forever!!1
mircea_popescu: it's so fucking amusing to me, how derps always pretend like they got all the optionality and all the time in the world. hurr durr i'm some random chick, almost hot, almost smart ? clearly i don't have to jump on this guy the moment i see him. nah, let time pass, let me "figure things out", he'll still be here. then get all butthurt when "that slut" did EXACTLY what subs shopuld be doing. "omg she just jumped on him started t
shinohai: !~later tell BingoBoingo I also need lordly advice, what was the name for the whoreticulture blog you came up with?
ben_vulpes: and i've been having such a good time reading qntra of late
pete_dushenski: i thought chips went with fish, not seals
ben_vulpes: you know what i mean
mircea_popescu: i thought ariana grande was a model. she sings ?!
pete_dushenski: all terrorists are alike i tells ya
ben_vulpes: in other wats, the solar battery tender i bought from ebay showed up today, fulfilled by amazon
ben_vulpes: i roll my eyes at you sir
pete_dushenski: as an aside, this mircea_popescu retelling blows my feeble canadian mind no matter how many times i read it. i'm not sure there's been a single person in the history of this great arable land that's had an impromptu motorcade like that.
a111: Logged on 2017-05-11 15:40 mircea_popescu: let me point out that a) i visited, when i felt like ; b) they gave me a 10 year visa back in 2000. i was one of the i dunno, maybe dozen romanians with one, at the time ? c) they fucking held the embassy open while my driver was going 100 on the wrong way in bucharest because i met some friends and got to drinking and we lost track of time and we were late. eventually got a police escort to do it under color of law at least,
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-23#1660325 << fwiw and ftr i've spent ~0 brain cycles considering what to do if i break it, it is not imho likely. but learned a few things in the process. ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-23#1660326 << mod6 , i have adatronic block/tx parser, reencoder, done, mmaptron also! but put on hold to finish 'p' (aka 'tmsr rsa') ☝︎
mod6: re: http://thebitcoin.foundation/tickets/trb_tickets.html#1 << this one seems to be resolved with the use of -lows. I hesitate to remove the ticket, but a link to the patch might be worthwhile here.
a111: Logged on 2017-03-10 16:57 asciilifeform: btw i will also put down in the log, one very simple possible algorithm for a 'txidx-fs' :
asciilifeform: i wonder who else ever even mentioned subj publicly.
asciilifeform: right. output ought be a 'hey schmuck, if you use this rng, i can predict, like-so...'
mircea_popescu: i suppose distributions is the sane way to go about this. study if taking byte as 3 gives uneven distribution as opposed to taking byte as 8, say.
mircea_popescu: ah, i misunderstood.
