mircea_popescu: but it does mean
that IF it were
to exist, we can't say anything about what it can't do./
mircea_popescu: the rules as
they are preclude its existence.
that may not mean it can't exist,
mircea_popescu: all
these people derping about "quantum-computing-strong hashes" and whatnot are starting

to be a joke for going
there. not just in my eyes, which whatever, who cares, but in your own 60yo eyes. and
that burns.
mircea_popescu: and even if parents would much prefer
their 17 yo rebelious
teenager goes
to
the flaming man instead of
the burning man, and even if
they give
the car with a full
tank of gasoline and
two small bottles of ginger ale for
the former and punish
the latter,
chetty: social media seems
to do a really good job of killing social
mircea_popescu: it's still shit, in
the manner
the local fair in lexington, kentucky, even if called "the flaming man", is still a very poor approximation of
the actual burning man.
mircea_popescu: not from anyone else. and it doesn't even do such a good job of hiding it from you yourselves on a long enough
timeline.
mircea_popescu: you've bought into
the entire sm swag just like other generations have bought in
the shit offered for
their consumption. guess what :
the fact
that you all get it only hides
the fact
that it's shit from you yourselves,

kakobrekla: * asciilifeform uses headphones mainly
to 'turn off hearing'
to improve concentration. < you wear
those cause model m, admit it!
nubbins`: and it's
the actual noise of
the air being ducted in
that you're
trying
to eliminate?
nubbins`: (isn't
this roughly what an air exchanger does?)
nubbins`: we have climate of a different sort here,
to
the point where i can't recall ever seeing an air conditioning unit in a private home. at
the risk of asking a silly question, could one have
the unit outside
the room and vent
the cool air in?
assbot: Soundproofing & Acoustic
Treatment
nubbins`: i have a friend who can play drums in his bedroom with
the door closed and you can barely make out
the beat
nubbins`: not prohibitively expensive. musicians do it all
the
time
nubbins`: you could always build a soundproof room and put
the fans outside it
nubbins`: i suppose individual room configurations would make it
tough
to pull off in a general sense
assbot: imgur:
the simple image sharer
nubbins`: iirc some high-end car manufacturer did
this with
the sound system
nubbins`: standalone (speakers rather
than earphones) noise cancellation system?
nubbins`: you ever
try white/pink noise?
nubbins`: pascale uses
the standard orange squeezey ~30dB ones
nubbins`: although
they're more geared
towards muting w/ a flat frequency curve
than blocking out all sound
nubbins`: there's also
these earplugs
that some drummers use,
they mold
to fit your outer ear like an old-school hearing aid
