asciilifeform: if you can guarantee it with 1 dose
asciilifeform: 2-3y maybe useful
asciilifeform: but possibly i’m thick
asciilifeform: i also admit that i dun see the appeal of a bullet that takes decade to plug a d00d
asciilifeform: i have nfi whether it was ~fired~ in the field, separate q
asciilifeform: again no mega-tech here, radiolabeling was ordinary enough laboratory tech in late ‘50s.
asciilifeform: not comparable.
asciilifeform: and you conclude this based on what?
asciilifeform: not death ray, no.
asciilifeform: we’re talking 1950s tech, mircea_popescu . stalin’s mairanovsky prolly had it.
asciilifeform: ever radiolabel with own hands ?
asciilifeform: ‘stolen from textbook’ lol
asciilifeform: i dispute b
asciilifeform: or the thread re folx losing usa fat being sickened by the released liposoluble crud
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: consider how doping test picks up pot-smoking (chix in particular) months after the fact
asciilifeform: re dosimeter, see the mean free path item again, you need to put the carcass through a blender for this.
asciilifeform: ricin is a pretty good poison, only detected because some remained in the bullet
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-29#1730289 << nope. you feed him a lipid-soluble, it sticks around for years ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-29#1730287 << spy chief would have to be a downs case to ‘stealthily’ poison a d00d with a gamma emitter, screamingly hot from across a room ☝︎
asciilifeform: ( in lab, we used tritiated amino acids for ‘label’ in culture , unremarkable and extremely sharp tool )
asciilifeform: and slowly do the victim in, ‘of natural causes’ .
asciilifeform: ceaușescu et al easily could have created , similarly to modern chemotherapeutic items, tritiated (thereby alpha-emitting, mean free path in air ~1cm, in meat - mm ) compounds that travel to $organ of choice
asciilifeform: many years ago, as a lab monkey, asciilifeform used (standard, commonplace) tritiated organic miscellany
asciilifeform: the ‘cancer weapon’ on other hand is quite realistic, and for it to not show on any ordinary detector is also realistic, asciilifeform knows very well one possible variant of such a thing
asciilifeform: in other lulz, i was reading the infamous general pacepa - mega-runaway. sharp fella, but really? iraq wmd seekritly vanished by ru spies ? srsly?
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-28#1730256 << lol with wat? gpg’s aes ?? ☝︎

asciilifeform: ( iirc in english called 'hit and miss motor' )
asciilifeform: just standing there
asciilifeform: somewhat to my surprise there was, under covered rooflets, fancy furniture from 19th c, and even a 1880s ( i think) petrol engine, the 1cyl monster with flywheel
asciilifeform: i can picture.
asciilifeform: these were perma-exhibits, oak, stone, mircea_popescu prolly saw already.
asciilifeform: oh also was hut of 'typical ukr', 'typical serb', 'typical svabi'
asciilifeform: fwiw i have a 'get out of tsa 99.9%' membership
asciilifeform: i did take a case, they'll be stealing hats if 'lucky'
asciilifeform: also banatmuseum had 'typical hut of dekulakized kulak in '51'
asciilifeform: 'but english! rich!'
asciilifeform: then! cheese an' sausage d00d hears pet englisching and looked genuinely sad when asciilifeform did not want to buy his whole multi-kg supply
asciilifeform: but nobody in shops , etc seemed to.

asciilifeform: thought i'd leave without meeting 1 .

asciilifeform: in other lulz, at banat festival, not only peasant huts, fried cheeses, sausages of 9000 types, but shooting gallery a la carnival but with... m16
asciilifeform bbl, off into town
asciilifeform: btw BingoBoingo you could live like normal person for 20bux/d here; and like royalty for 50 . ( caveat : it's a natostan and usg-occupied in the east, naturally. tho you wouldn't be able to tell with naked eye. )
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: this is not first expedition for asciilifeform
asciilifeform: it always lacked it, lol
asciilifeform: for what do i need this again ?
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-28#1730122 << asciilifeform has expensive, unreliable, and difficult solutions for everything!111 but would prefer sanity. ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-28#1730114 << funnily, the near-only thing not expensive in usa is booze. unlike in old su, nobody drinks cologne, notice ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-28#1730112 << gotta liquidate my earthly goods, study moar ro-fu, and yes, pile up moar fuel for 1st stage of rocket ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-28#1730050 << from where comes this idea ? just because it strips js ? it'll do 0 against, e.g., an overflow in jpeg renderer ☝︎
asciilifeform: at this point i am only willing to spend it on capital goodz ( i.e. where i have pretty solid notion that it can bring back the spent coin )
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-27#1730037 << am i the only 1 for whom spending btc feels moar like selling organs than spending money, tho ☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-27#1730047 << i sat down to write something quite similar, and then realized that i can milk a remote node for its rsa privkey via timing , lol. but fast forward to today. ffa still on track for release for end of nov. btw. ☝︎
asciilifeform: and as specifically-diddlable as if we were all to ride one particular lift every morning.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-27#1730032 << it's as reliable as the lift in a sov apt block ☝︎
asciilifeform: the problem is where to host, if publicly accessible it needs potentially massive bandwidth, and if not public, is a fucking pain ( i won't be entering pw or whatever nonsense every time i want to click a link, wtf )
asciilifeform: fwiw i have one for publictoilet iron, it's a few line of bash, spits out result similar to http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-31#1707238 ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-27#1730023 << pdf decrufter is similar item to graphical-www archiver, it is turing-complete op, and requires either absolutely correct soft (e.g. adatronic 100%) or sacrificial publictoilet iron. ☝︎
asciilifeform: while the thing stays up and appears to work, it is spottily useful, like google cache et al. but to suggest to build it permanently into infrastructure is nonsense, and i can only assume mircea_popescu had a strong bottle when suggested it
asciilifeform: and even if it stays up, author is a wotless heathen, can be relied on to, e.g., supply logs to enemy, insert boobytraps , lose or modify stored material, one day.
asciilifeform: lobbes: and yes, it will
asciilifeform: and author did ~not~ write 'html defucker', by all indications he has a headless browser which infects just like other graphical wwwtrons and is public toilet
asciilifeform: 'let's fetch all of our links via one ip' how is that alone not batshit and invitation for diddles.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-27#1730021 << archive.is is a (not esp. reliable, and easily, often, blocked by enemy) central point of failure, and to put further pressure on it is screaming lunacy ☝︎
asciilifeform bbl
asciilifeform: i was referring to zips mod6
asciilifeform: oh hey
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: for actually fetching the zip
asciilifeform: ( 'i then loaded that one very special tape' )
asciilifeform: recall scene in 'bofh'
asciilifeform: sooo apparently 0 demand for pulling the backups to date , lol
asciilifeform: did this vanish ?
asciilifeform: so long as they don't tear hair out when it becomes clear that no, you can't charge for sunlight ☟︎
asciilifeform: trinque: if no independent mirrors, it's rubbish
asciilifeform: hence 0 sane archiver to this day.
asciilifeform: afaik nobody knows where to even begin resolving this knot, ☟︎
asciilifeform: but otoh you gotta have perma-log.
asciilifeform: how the hell would one price a promise to archive 4evah tho.
asciilifeform: and for worthlessfiatola.
asciilifeform: if i want something stowed on some heathenisp rando box, i can bloodywell rent one and upload it ~myself~
asciilifeform: ( this is a properly a subset of the isp discussion. )
asciilifeform: i won't pay for the familiar best-effort nonsense.
asciilifeform: waiwaat
asciilifeform: reminds of scene in the riotously bad 'atlas shrugged' novel where 'mega millionaires' charge each other gold dubloons in their seekrit hideout for borrowing a cig
asciilifeform: that's a mighty pricy kByte
asciilifeform: truu
asciilifeform: trinque: d00d came up for air not long ago
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2014-03-05#547894 << in other vintage loglullz ☝︎
asciilifeform: and it can be turned on its head : do a proper deed ~before~ being shot, with surprised stupid face, for an inevitable jaywalking you may or may not even have done.
asciilifeform: the jaywalking point is exactly troo, and was beginning to form in asciilifeform's head when he signed up for $mission
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-27#1729885 << limonov >> http://btcbase.org/log/2014-03-05#546880 ☝︎☝︎
