BingoBoingo: <mp_en_viaje> how's pizarro doing these days btw << Waiting for alf hands. In the interim about to send invoices.
a111: Logged on 2019-03-27 17:23 BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> (i kinda suspect BingoBoingo would do a lot better with a partner on the grounds, tbh) << I suspect similar

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-13#1912999 << mp_en_viaje i have to plead 'guilty' to this. asciilifeform when younger many times 'went for broke', pawned shirt, and -- lost shirt. so has roughly same pov as bedouin has re water. ☝︎
asciilifeform: diana_coman: did they have this in your corner of ro ? ( when in bucharest, asciilifeform saw also ruins, and gigantic dead factories, but no torch d00dz , instead all overgrown with vines, trees through roof etc ) ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2017-11-28 00:02 asciilifeform: other typical items : http://www.loper-os.org/pub/timis_sad_mansion.jpg http://www.loper-os.org/pub/timis_sad_mansion_2.jpg http://www.loper-os.org/pub/timis_sad_factory.jpg
asciilifeform: although, next to that hotel i was in ( same 1 mp_en_viaje held c2 in ) , gigantic and apparently abandoned glass box bldg was having its roof methodically cut by scavengers with torches, quietly loaded each piece on truck and vanished before nightfall
asciilifeform: gypsy can do amazing things. iirc mp_en_viaje described, how the half-built palaces asciilifeform saw in timis, were built by'em

asciilifeform: as often happens, mp_en_viaje suspects correctly.
a111: Logged on 2019-05-13 12:10 mp_en_viaje: yeah, exactly why i didn't get a dslr mysle.f
lobbesbot: phf: Sent 17 hours and 38 minutes ago: <asciilifeform> plox to snarf sig in http://bvt-trace.net/2019/05/unrolled-assembly-comba/ ( and diana_coman 's earlier ) at your earliest , into btcbase, ty
a111: Logged on 2017-10-27 17:56 mircea_popescu: anyway, no theorems isn't it. there's that famous case of my driver whom my mother (who was bumming a ride) asked in shock why'd he'd go around playing valet for a 17yo. he said something like "not everyone's a big deal". man had 0 theorems to prove, but also didn't go around deluding himself on the matter.
mp_en_viaje: there's a very marked difference between the people who know it's a scam -- and therefore ~NEVER~ indulge and the people who know it's a scam and yet very occasionally indulge. the difference's the former are "well educated" engineers, whereas the latter "illegal"

asciilifeform: ( before mp_en_viaje asks -- it sadly aint practical to take a unit off an existing board and reuse. they're all bga . )
asciilifeform: !Q later tell phf plox to snarf sig in http://bvt-trace.net/2019/05/unrolled-assembly-comba/ ( and diana_coman 's earlier ) at your earliest , into btcbase, ty
asciilifeform: at one time i had 'x61' also, but pronounced it sad and sent it to, iirc, gabriel_laddel
a111: Logged on 2017-01-11 18:50 asciilifeform: http://nosuchlabs.com/pub/x60_diddled.bin
asciilifeform: this is trivially verifiable experimentally : build for 32bit ( 'MachineBitness' in http://www.loper-os.org/pub/ffa/hypertext/ch18/iron__ads.htm ) and get ~exactly 2x slower.
asciilifeform: ( and really, as observed by mp_en_viaje in prev. thrd, 'bus width bound' )
asciilifeform: even mp_en_viaje's 'fx' i suspect.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: pre-barrett ffa , when rsaing, spends most of wallclock time in fz_mod , is all. which dun multiply. in 14+ , i fully expect 2-3x boost from asmism (possibly higher, with massage w/ magnifying glass for pipelineism etc )
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: bvt's asmism is correct near as i can tell ( i have not walked with magnifying glass. ) the 1 gotcha is that the actual win from'em aint measurable until bolt'em onto ch14b+ ( where knuth's division is no longer the bulk of the cpu load )
asciilifeform: lol, portable en_viaje garden ?

BingoBoingo: mp_en_viaje: Small town problems.
a111: Logged on 2016-07-28 14:51 mircea_popescu: the work - and it IS work - involved in the average encounter known as a "hook up" or "one night stand" is a lot closer to nursing an elderly stupid patient than to fucking.
BingoBoingo: Anyways in other examples: https://inmueble.mercadolibre.com.uy/MLU-461759843-casa-quinta-en-venta-melilla-2-dormitorios-financia-_JM << "protegido por la DINAMA" means "Fuck you, worthless" and https://inmueble.mercadolibre.com.uy/MLU-462960529-en-melilla-_JM << All of these apple trees need replaced with something marketable
asciilifeform: and yea can readily see mp_en_viaje's pt re the serfs
BingoBoingo: <mp_en_viaje> however, you can't have the house. that costs actual money. it's by utility, see ? << Other odd marginal benefit of particular linked example. Rare Quinta with fiber.
a111: Logged on 2019-05-08 17:26 mp_en_viaje: as it stands being mayor of some small town somewhere will run you less than what a toyota costs.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: yes and it's reason # 9000 why asciilifeform wants out
BingoBoingo: <mp_en_viaje> i dunno if you realise this, but that floor metrage has to also be cleaned, maintained etc. you can count about 100sqm / 1k sqft per slavegirl, 320sqm will be dificult for just two women to keep up with. << And the acreage will need quite a few alpacas, goats, and geese to mow
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: robovac sweeps 100 m^2 / hr or so.
asciilifeform: http://www.loper-os.org/pub/uy_sovok_1.jpg http://www.loper-os.org/pub/uy_sovok_2.jpg << subj .
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: not only that period. i have strong suspicion that 'capacitor plague' never trooly ended, or will ☟︎
asciilifeform: it's exactly reminiscent of mircea_popescu's argentines

a111: Logged on 2019-05-11 18:16 mp_en_viaje: i expect they're a decent investment, >real estate.
a111: Logged on 2019-05-11 17:49 mp_en_viaje: used mobos are always suspect, but otherwise notrly.
a111: Logged on 2018-03-29 16:48 mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes buying real estate in the reich without an army ?
a111: Logged on 2019-05-10 10:44 mp_en_viaje: in other news, i bought a buncha fx amds, 9590s, 9370s, 8370/8350 ; plus their respective a3+ boards, gigabyte, assus, w/e.
billymg: mp_en_viaje, asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-10#1912285 << amazon appears to have some of these models in stock, any reason for readers based in the zone to not scoop these up? ☝︎
asciilifeform: prolly when they see mp_en_viaje they think 'he pumps, somewhere else'
asciilifeform: lol what did they expect mp_en_viaje to do.. stand and clap ??
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: which doods, why offended ..?
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: well yes, quite; asciilifeform I actually know gym without glass and moreover actually impossible to see into from outside but yes, not the run of the mill gym
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, i suppose it's cheap marketing fo rthe gym
a111: Logged on 2016-03-23 15:54 mircea_popescu: bum of the town falls asleep drunk on railroad. steam engine comes and thrashes him thoroughly.
a111: Logged on 2019-05-11 00:25 mp_en_viaje: aaanyways, in unrelated news, seems 0.0.0.0 cloudfront.net > /etc/hosts mostly gets rid of those obnoxious "european union thinks it can legislate" popups.
BingoBoingo: <mp_en_viaje> the boys are wise to it, too. which is why every kid with daddy's money bmw has the app installed. it's like tinder for the orcs. << Here the kids get the Uber cars on some sort of ruinous credit. Run 5 or six other ride apps at the same time.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: over here, 100% of uberists are old african emigre doods
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: possibly yer thinking of lessig et al
a111: Logged on 2019-05-11 00:21 mp_en_viaje: o btw, uber ipo'd, utterly failed the groupon mark.
asciilifeform: ( via the mechanism described by mp_en_viaje upstack. )
a111: Logged on 2017-12-29 00:48 mircea_popescu: where the fuck is that piece commenting on how soviet citizens all sooner or later wake up to the disney quality of their state ?
BingoBoingo: <mp_en_viaje> asciilifeform, anyway, re "the subject dood" : http://trilema.com/2018/in-which-a-bizarre-character-wanks-it/ << Nah, this other one http://trilema.com/2013/apparently-im-not-the-only-one-pointing-out-the-obvious/
asciilifeform: iirc mp_en_viaje had another piece, where 'went to dentist? why then fight with the anaesthesiologist' etc
spyked: asciilifeform, they advertise gigabit, but home connections don't "guarantee" that, i.e. it may go to 900 Mbps on a good day. to answer mp_en_viaje's question: the 100 difference (or 1000 - 600 = 400) may be other home users sharing the pipe, QoS policies, peering or simply natbox not being able to process (typically, the home media converter/router they provide is shit)
asciilifeform: aah so mp_en_viaje measured 70-80 mB (not mb) ? then pretty great
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: it'd be 400. ( typically bw advertised in 'megabit', so mB * 8 )
BingoBoingo: mp_en_viaje: Very possible
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: sounds like you built a new base in ro ? ( or didja get that 80Mb/s into a hotel! it did not occur to asciilifeform to try this.. )
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, quite so.

asciilifeform did go into a comp shop in timis. it had ridiculous prices, and shit iron. mp_en_viaje evidently did not go to that one.
a111: Logged on 2019-05-10 11:25 mp_en_viaje: in other lulz, 70-80 MBps ul/dl (via fiber to the door) sets one back ~10 bux/mo in romania.

diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: bought in ro or what?
asciilifeform familiar with subj, but strictly from that likbez mp_en_viaje wrote some yrs ago
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: relatedly, is there a royalist party in current-day ro ?
asciilifeform: seems like this makes... 3? trinque , ben_vulpes , billymg .. in tx
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: counter-intuitively, problem wasn't the wood (they weren't trying to, nor needed, to go kilometer under water, but only below where can be seen from victim vessel)
a111: Logged on 2019-05-09 00:44 mp_en_viaje: the question of "can computers think" becomes "how far can this actually go", just how useful a computer can there be built.
a111: Logged on 2019-05-07 21:09 mp_en_viaje: spyked, chock-full. though it's unclear to me how you reason re "having beaches", and in any case the fucking of eastern girls was more the 90s than the 70s.
a111: Logged on 2019-05-06 15:00 phf: mp_en_viaje: it's the shitsoup ecosystem, there's a handful of packages smartly written, like hunchentoot or cl-http, and then there's new wave of cffi-everything approaches, that stand tall and pretend to be people
a111: Logged on 2019-05-06 17:44 lobbes_field: As such, I'll start poking around at mod_lisp, et al. Will report back
a111: Logged on 2019-05-06 16:11 asciilifeform: btw, for http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-06#1911403-completeness strictly, http://www.loper-os.org/pub/cultural_layer_1.jpg , http://www.loper-os.org/pub/cultural_layer_2.jpg .
a111: Logged on 2019-05-06 15:06 mp_en_viaje: if lisp-o-tron spits out html files and apache delivers them, this will be web-fast
asciilifeform: iirc mircea_popescu , just as asciilifeform , knows what it is to have robot arm go through plate glass and stop inch short of face. in such case the equivalence becomes very obvious.
asciilifeform: while we're on the 'best comp is the 1 that takes off yer head to shorten the misery' thread : asciilifeform did in fact get sumthing like a working highlighting from yesterday's crock of shit . but still can't trust it to actually not fuck the job , demonstrating mp_en_viaje's point ☝︎
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: yes, actually. in ameri-school, can see not only this.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: funnily enuff, 'whether submarines swim' dunwork in ru ( where both boat and man 'swim' ) , similarly to how in eng both airplane and bird 'fly'
a111: Logged on 2018-07-29 16:27 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-29#1838170 << argentines are literally and without exageration a bunch of soy farmers who pretend FOR NO REASON conceivable, a circumstance of which they are aware AND PRETEND IT DOES NOT MATTER! AT ALL!, pretend they say they're something in the vein of "third power in europe". and that they might have such things as submarines, and so on. it's literally pig going through girls' charm cabinet a
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: if you think s.nsa can get some mileage out of the item, let's keep it, otherwise plox to dispose, i cannot in good conscience try an' power it with own steam , gotta save the coinz for piz work
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i had nfi fridge dutifully preserved the contents in liquid helium and racked up bill, lol. entirely fair if mp_en_viaje invoices asciilifeform for same.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: aha
asciilifeform: ( also mp_en_viaje can pleez try an' convince fella to actually use pgp ? i tried in 3 languages, could not )
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: can you think of a use for it ?
asciilifeform: hanbot, mp_en_viaje : i assumed the service expired given as i did not go to renew.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: plox to invoice asciilifeform for expense, if reqd.
hanbot: mircea_popescu asciilifeform http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/HcCLu/?raw=true
asciilifeform: iirc there was a mircea_popescu piece re similar 'give'em price' from '90s, where the derps sold off their privatized flats a la ru
BingoBoingo: <mp_en_viaje> as it stands being mayor of some small town somewhere will run you less than what a toyota costs. << And if the Balmers et al run up the cost of mayorship, that is a damned honest signal to the rest of the world that giving away the franchise to all that fall out of a cunt for free is gravely underpricing the franchise.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: which things ?
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: iirc ~this~ already for sale ( i even got a quote ) but sorta ridic. price (iirc 800k ameridubloons )
a111: Logged on 2019-05-08 08:48 mp_en_viaje: in other words, it's pretty fucking cheap.
