asciilifeform: there are many, many more in the inventory, than there are people i like.
asciilifeform: originally i was ready to include them with FUCKGOATS but found that it would require even larger and costlier (shipment overseas is already outrageous, costs > the hardware ) parcel .
asciilifeform: incidentally i still have a crate and a half of s.nsa shirts here.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: printing of tshirts and stickers, leatherworking/seaming, i believe the glass fabrication folks are in on it as well
asciilifeform: i'm batting 0/N so far.
mircea_popescu: i suspect the supreme court is very unadherent to the theory it has any missions from god.
mircea_popescu: i dunno how the us bought wholesale the "straight teeth!!1" bullshit, as if anyone ever gave a shit, or as if the bidet dantures of usians are attractive to any degree. yet the "ALL girls must get proper tits" thing -- not.
phf: that's the only reason i went to see it
asciilifeform: cast : '... Paris Hilton' << i had nfi.
asciilifeform: 'The decision is not only economical. I don't want the "friction" of trying to achieve high-quality production of collector item data CDs twice a year, in 2017. 6.0 was a high-quality CD release like previous ones, but don't want to expend the effort of producing and testing to make sure 6.1, 6.2 etc are up to that standard. It is better to call it quits on a high note.'
danielpbarron: i haven't opened versions 5.6 through 5.8 but my 5.5 is the official kind of cd that looks shiny metal (not colorful)
danielpbarron: i have it sitting right next to me
danielpbarron: huh, yeah the CDs i have are the "real" kind that look aluminum
phf: it could be a joke, but the "well-used" part, i dunno if that's the kind joke somebody with a proper pressing plant contracts would make at the end of a long run
asciilifeform: 'Goodbye CDs I'm done with you today Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye No more pre-production And no more long delays So I have peace Of mind Goodbye.'
phf: but what i was actually going to say, is that openbsd disks apparently weren't pressed. it seems like theo de raadt has been burning them by hand up until now
asciilifeform: i have 2, maybe 3 cups of unruined coffee period.
mircea_popescu: this is not a substantial contribution. but i suppose assemblage is not that different after all.
mircea_popescu: phf so if i paint the car in alaska it's a local car now ?
asciilifeform: i thought mircea_popescu was speaking of where the thing grows.
asciilifeform: i was half-convinced it was an april1
mircea_popescu: what you thought i was making it up ?
mircea_popescu: i guess.
mircea_popescu: yes, i linked the paperwork coupla days ago. what the ukr split cost was 40k. ☟︎
ben_vulpes: i think this gets the rest of the gcc bitching: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/k9CNE/?raw=true
mircea_popescu: if i water MY tree with beer one day and with piss another, i still don't want to hear what it thinks on the topic.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-16#1644692 << i know of 0 evidence that the car vendors give any measurable fuck re usa roads. it's pure, unimpeded rape of the captive customer. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: im not even sure i'd eat the local gator.
mats: i've never seen a dinner roll in any asian restaurant in my life
mircea_popescu: mats i get free shit in chinese restaurants half the fucking time.
mats: and while i'm being hateful, i think the chinese owner of my favorite chinese takeout spot sold the place because i received complementary dinner rolls with my meal
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> also, she's not white. she prefers to be referred to as "buttery" << i.e. wants to trap a black man and get Obeast on him
a111: Logged on 2017-04-16 21:55 BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: lol, sprays into house ?! and .22 may as well be dynamite, where i live << Nah, onto squirrels looking at your house. Get picnic chair, grab coffee, and wait
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-16#1644683 << aha, i can sit and enjoy perforating own roof and walls, while i wait for 1st passing police car to shoot me in the back, 'we saw terrorist with rifle' ☝︎
ben_vulpes: i can reproduce up the specific barf if you'd like
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: unless i've made a terrible mistake, do believe it builds
ben_vulpes: the naive counter that "cars and more land area covered with rapidly-depreciated asphault solve nothing either!" is stupidly ignorant of path-dependent processes. america is the land of cars (thanks eisenhower) and will remain so for as far out as i can see.
mircea_popescu: i read a novel.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: lol, sprays into house ?! and .22 may as well be dynamite, where i live << Nah, onto squirrels looking at your house. Get picnic chair, grab coffee, and wait ☟︎
mircea_popescu: soo... i spent most of the day in the casinos, during which amiable passtime i happened to pick up the following tidbit :
asciilifeform: i'd also much like to hear from other FUCKGOATS users.
mod6: gonna see what those results look like... then will probably continue on and test the remainder of the fgs I've got.
mod6: not sure if I mentioned yesterday, but I did start a collection of another ~1Gb of entropy from the same fg as I wrote up the blog post about.
a111: Logged on 2014-05-26 21:42 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: reminds me of a time when i stowed some stuff in plastic garbage bags, then discovered they were... biodegradable. turned to astonishing quantity of dust. when vacuuming old flat, found fragments - years after the fact.
asciilifeform: i checked.
asciilifeform: 'I don't know what happened to Trump. Some muse he may be drugged and we would never know it and it makes sense. The world watched this man for two years to election day. And after Jan 20th, we watched him proceed immediately to walk his talk. Then... in like 24hrs... a full 180. If not drugs and mind control, there is always the secret grassy knoll footage of Kennedy's head being blown off to help Trump "get the message."'
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: lol, sprays into house ?! and .22 may as well be dynamite, where i live
asciilifeform: i've never even seen these fat hogs, climb a roof.
mircea_popescu: i did think that dude is likely ag expat.
asciilifeform: i'd buy ten.
diana_coman: alternatively, get an owl I suppose
mircea_popescu: i must confess it's first thing i hear man's dwelling under threat from squirrel.
mircea_popescu: my objection is that if i invited any of those girls with nice tits to my hotel room she wouldn't have sense enough to strip while walking the hallway.
asciilifeform: i especially luvvv the usual american retort 'over where they didn't let the tourist go, they have zimbabwe, ruins, zombies'. as if, e.g., baltimore, did not look like this.
mircea_popescu: i expect this pretty much summarizes north korea altogether.
mircea_popescu: i do not understand why all the girls are old ugly and dressed in this porn ?
mircea_popescu: i dunno, fucking with the tomb of tal'rasha
asciilifeform: i don't know of a traditional name for his historical process, but imho it deserves one.
mircea_popescu: i don't even mean "if they were brilliant" or anything.
mircea_popescu: save me the fucking trouble, i'll throw a ticker tape parade.
mircea_popescu: eh, let them be the better mps, if they got the wetware. what, you think i'd object ?
asciilifeform: well, how am i to process 'if they didn't suck, they'd already be here'
asciilifeform: this is a postulation, not an observation, nor a deduction; i won't engage it
mircea_popescu: that's my whole fucking point, i need another set of "oh, we have slavegirls! no they can't dance and what is this cocksucking ? BANNED BY GOD!!11" bullshit.
mircea_popescu: "man... i forgot what i was tryinna do!"
asciilifeform: they work, as far as i can tell.
mircea_popescu: i thought you didn't think they worked.
a111: Logged on 2016-11-01 23:12 asciilifeform: and in re last thread also, i know of 0 examples of anybody pulling this kind of thing off using strictly volunteers having no blood relation.
mircea_popescu: i don't think anyone imagines natostan works
mircea_popescu: i don't think it worked on anyone but illiterate peasants, that trick.
mircea_popescu: i don't think so.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-15 01:17 mircea_popescu: i expect about half are white, unsexed, males in their 30s +- 8 years.
asciilifeform: i dun see appeal of inhabiting fictional nations any moar than mircea_popescu does.
mircea_popescu: and for that matter i don't recall you being much of a "nation of ukr" either.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this i can picture.
mircea_popescu: anyway. i'm transylvanian if anything, which is an ethic group, if you must, and which has about as much to do with "romania" as say http://trilema.com/2013/the-greatest-accomplishments-of-the-french/#comment-92869
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: says the d00d from whose www i learned enough ro to read , e.g., 'silver boar' hunt poem and 1,001 other cultural treasures from 'imaginary nation'
mircea_popescu: i'm certainly no product of a (wholly imaginary) romanian "nation".
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: everyone i ever met who was worth knowing was a product (and typically escapee from) a healthy , traditional nation. not deculturated ???s, no.
mod6: i'd like to get more familiar with the types of statistical tests from `ent` and `dieharder`.
mats: i look forward to watching riots in vr
mod6: <+asciilifeform> NOW if it happens with all of the units in mod6 's parcel, and ~every~ run -- then problem. << this is key too. i'll perhaps collect another 1Gb+ a few more times from that initial first one and report back on the ent/dh results too.
asciilifeform: mod6: neato, i look forward to reading
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i can't say i personally much relish nations, but the alternative seems to be 'atomized' people who are deculturated to the point of qualifying for simian cage in zoo, and crushed by megastate like insects when needed.
mod6: i'll be testing the other ones and will report back how the ent/dh results look on each.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> incidentally i'd be curious to hear if anybody's ever seen a dieharder output on something that isn't a prng or prng-whitened trng, that consistently produced no 'weak'. << werd.
mircea_popescu: i suppose the commie dorks forgot what all happened to the guys hitler's sa practiced on.
mircea_popescu: can't say i'm all too keen on the nation bullshit.
mats: i agree that its unlikely anyone will use a nuke and claim responsibility for it
mircea_popescu: i dunno, don't ask me, there's a reason i don't try to run a geostate.
mircea_popescu: honestly i'd rather trust a gaggle of ghana street urchins than us state to achieve anything.
mats: i have been thinking usg destabilization of dprk is a great way to jam a fork in the party's eye
mats: i suspect it was delivered with an artillery shell rather than a rocket dropped by su-22, american radar may be able to disprove this
a111: Logged on 2017-04-16 03:49 asciilifeform: the 'mules' piece i read, and wondered why it does not discuss the people actually fucked by cc fraud (vendors) and instead dwells on the people not-fucked-at-all (banks)
a111: Logged on 2017-04-16 03:26 asciilifeform: ( where do i even buy a provably nonwhitened trng ?! to compare to, i mean. i tried to buy such a thing, failed. not sold afaik for any amount. )
BingoBoingo: mats: None I know about, and no specifics on that application. It will however allow for greater effective dosing than continuing 800 mg ibuprofen
mats: BingoBoingo: any side effects i should know about, do you know if its effective with ulnar nerve entrapment
mats: no updates re: esp8266, don't have time for it but i'll cough up the coin if someone wants to try a bulk purchase and play with one
asciilifeform: the 'mules' piece i read, and wondered why it does not discuss the people actually fucked by cc fraud (vendors) and instead dwells on the people not-fucked-at-all (banks) ☟︎
mats: http://www.flownet.com/gat/jpl-lisp.html i might've seen this here, not sure: 'rise and fall of Lisp at the Jet Propulsion Lab'
