ben_vulpes: the amusing thing is how their "airdrop" shit doesn't work either.
ben_vulpes: he can't even see mine from his machine.
ben_vulpes: i can see the guy's laptop, can't even open the "dropbox".
thestringpuller: lol. I can't wait til a large crypto company is left to a precocious 3yo.
PeterL: well, there are plenty of compounds that don't have perfect octets for all the atoms
mircea_popescu: "all is fine, don't worry, throw LOCs by the thousand million, because it's like a truck, it can hold anything
mircea_popescu: sometimes i wonder if the internet itself shouldn't have a bus factor.
PeterL: don't worry, you have me to correct you :)
PeterL: mircea_popescu:right, no2 can't even exist. << does exist http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen_dioxide "reddish-brown toxic gas has a characteristic sharp, biting odor and is a prominent air pollutant."
mircea_popescu: a large part of the problem is similar to why you can't shoot fish worth a crap. skin, muscle, fatand bone have widely variant refractive indexes.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes except one pound of prime rib is a) one pound rather than one hundred - and quantity has a quality all of its own - for instance it won't likely spit blood in your eyes ; b) already intensively prepared. for instance ? skin removed.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: lol, anybody with a kitchen knows that 'meat' isn't strictly flesh, yes
mircea_popescu: but anyway, humans aren't "bare flesh" in the sense of, overgrown squid. it's really quite well designed a mechanical apparatus. not least designed to... withstand swords.
mircea_popescu: dude so backward can't even get semis ?!
thestringpuller: so you don't like plants? I knew you were a 100% carnivore.
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> so war on drugs that are powders ? gases are ok ? << don't forget plants
mircea_popescu: right, no2 can't even exist.
Adlai: and it gets you high. who doesn't like products with dual market appeal!
mircea_popescu: i don't really think "2nd wave" feminism was ever important enough to engender noticeable reaction.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron you don't say. try it while ejaculating suddenly sometime. ☟︎
danielpbarron: we didn't drink the stuff; we huffed it through a rag
danielpbarron: Adlai, wah? no i didn't
mircea_popescu: nubbins` our options are, 1) two buck a can items are made with the cheapest possible thing and 2) two buck a can items are made with expensive medicine, because there's a conspiracy to keep kids entertained while they can't legally as much as buy a drink.
nubbins`: so our options are: (1) n2o is actually n2o and there's a reason why n2 won't cut it. or (2) all n2o is n2, without exception, and every single person who knows this secret isn't telling.
mircea_popescu: no, but it doesn;'t "protect the engine"
Adlai: but n2 won't bring additional revenue from kiddies looking for kicks
nubbins`: of course o2 isn't there
Adlai: related: you want to sell roses in gas stations. q: why would you add a useless hole to your vase? a: because you don't actually want to sell roses, you're selling crack pipes.
mircea_popescu: notice 02 wasn't there. it's obvious why not : fucking expensive. because reactive.
PeterL: I just don't understand how the world works?
mircea_popescu: to get a pressurized container you don't need fat solubility, nor is 2 buck a can whipping creram anything but styrofoam.
Adlai: and yes, if you buy a tank of nitrous oxide, and you don't check what grade it is, you will get sulfur dioxide (or worse) impurities
Adlai: i'm sorry, but if you can't distinguish o2 deprivation from n2o intoxication, then you've never intoxicated on n2o.
mircea_popescu: Adlai most dopeheads can't distinguish asphyxia from a high.
Adlai: also nitrous isn't that cheap
Adlai likes mckenna's "If the words 'life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness' don't include the right to experiment with your own consciousness, then the Declaration of Independence isn't worth the hemp it was written on."
nubbins`: Adlai you don't say?
nubbins`: active at very low doses -- enough to fit on blotter -- and similar enough to LSD that those who hadn't dosed before could mistake it for the real thing
nubbins`: BingoBoingo:DPR, literally the guy who wasn't good enough to sling dope as a profession <<< if he'd stuck to website admin, his actual job, he'd prolly still be out there
nubbins`: *:asciilifeform wonders if he's the only fella here who has never rage-smashed a keyboard, pNohe, pNablet, ..., etc <<< i rage-smashed a set of folding binoculars at around age 8, broke the little compass on top. wept bitterly at the loss, resolved to only smash things i didn't value from then on
asciilifeform: would someone care to explain why a previously-invalid opcode introduced by phoundation doesn't make a fork ?
BingoBoingo: I can't tell what if anything it is holding
mike_c: i want that to be cute but i can't tell if there's a death struggle going on.
danielpbarron: "I remember a time when those barely visible bumps around August 2012 and February 2013 filled the whole screen with their rollercoaster-y appearance. I remember that time because I was there and saw it, but to anyone looking today they don't matter and could as well have never existed. This will happen again, in the future."
assbot: Things that matter these days ; things that don't matter these days. pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1Jmlxw7 )
BingoBoingo: DPR, literally the guy who wasn't good enough to sling dope as a profession
danielpbarron: (i assume by TBF you don't mean the real one -> http://thebitcoin.foundation/ )
danielpbarron: this is from a "donator." doesn't that mean he gave thermos 50 bitcoin or something?
Adlai: hdbuck: just don't pledge allegiance to "usg and FIAT" and you'll be fine
cazalla: typical australian drunk driver http://youtu.be/8-0Ds05UnrA?t=32s
mircea_popescu: read one police report of crime x, you've read half of them. read ten, you've (practically) read them all. clinical psychology is only interesting to the patently insane, as a practice. otherwise all the notes say endlessly the same five or six things. there just aren't that many things to say. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i don't think you actually understand how the world works.
asciilifeform: just to underscore the sheer level of the braindamage i've uncovered - the thing won't build on any box with past 2+ yrs of glibc.
mircea_popescu: the fly eyes on the meat aren't a joke.
mircea_popescu: original of course doesn't mean what the marginal retard "trying to make it online" imagines.
asciilifeform: ain't happening. 'make world' on this box would take longer than the hardware's mtbf.
assbot: siginfo_t_fix.patch - Pastebin.com ... ( http://bit.ly/1zYkzzC )
asciilifeform: can't afford children, etc
mircea_popescu: it's called social studies graduate programs, isn't it ?
mircea_popescu: hm... it occurs to me... wouldn't it be a good idea if all progressives were required to register themselves with the state ?
thestringpuller: http://www.mtv.com/news/2069307/old-man-bald-haircut-bad-kids-children/ << i don't know why I think this is so funny.
decimation: yeah I know you weren't, but I thought it was an interesting question
asciilifeform: decimation: written in c, isn't a unix - hence uninteresting
punkman: ben_vulpes: I don't get it
cazalla: mircea_popescu: yes, but you can't just throw some yogurt into your cunt. <<< but you can throw some yogurt out of it! http://www.inquisitr.com/1839518/phd-student-creates-yoghurt-using-her-vagina/
asciilifeform: decimation: yes. and i can't say that i am interested in any future direction of 'c os' on 'c machines'
asciilifeform: it isn't used in bitcoin, no.
mod6: i thought we didn't want to use shared libs? only static libs *.a's
mod6: asciilifeform: no, i didn't im currently rebuilding.
mircea_popescu: i still can't make sense of it.
mircea_popescu: yes, but you can't just throw some yogurt into your cunt.
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> and yet you savages still don't have cunt basins as a regular fixture, amirite ? << why's the shower so inadequate?
decimation: the 'replacement' is a recirculating fan with a 'filter' that doesn't work at all
mircea_popescu: and yet you savages still don't have cunt basins as a regular fixture, amirite ?
mircea_popescu: then again, i don't see any of the "Global Warming ? opps!" "QE ? oops!" etc posts from the libertards, so i guess a slightly cleaner toad is still the prettier princess.
BingoBoingo: Google does't act generally anymore though
mircea_popescu: it mines them for info, yes, but it doesn't actually give the users any power.
mircea_popescu: i don't think google actually honors those.
mircea_popescu: ;;google don't go chasing butterfalls
mircea_popescu: the libertard is a particularly insidious totalitarian, in that he doesn't even admit his outright enmity to liberalism.
punkman: (spotted local news the other day about idiot that let his sheep wander all over some town, they rounded them up, will charge him 50eu per head to get them back. or to the butcher's if he doesn't claim them in 2 weeks)
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: THEN ruin them utterly, so that everyone involved still, to this day, can't get work like Strateman. << MagicalTux falls in this category. I don't think any of the DERP lists have management with WoT identities.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller> my biggest hesitation is the << your hesitation is correct. at this stage qntra wouldn't report on that shit even if *they* paid.
mircea_popescu: THEN ruin them utterly, so that everyone involved still, to this day, can't get work like Strateman.
mircea_popescu: in a world made out of equal idiots who don't have gpg sigs, THAT is the only possible human activity.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller: the indie developers killed it << no, they didn't. what killed it was the complete inability of the new generation to do any sort of useful work WHATSOEVER
PeterL: doesn't look like it
cazalla: asciilifeform, the why doesn't really matter.. lesson here is not to have 2fa on device you often have with you if prone to smashing things
jurov: linux-unwind.h:138: error: field 'info' has incomplete type << asciilifeform haven't you missed this? (from gnat.txt)
thestringpuller: the uproar is what is interesting. uproar over people who don't matter.
asciilifeform: that, if it isn't obvious, is a 'review farm.'
thestringpuller: indie dev's line up to suck Gabe's cock even if he can't see it.
thestringpuller: At least Phil Fish isn't being merit washed.
asciilifeform: there were two logical scenarios that formed in my head, 1) he did the things he was credited for, and somebody then came and scooped out his brain 2) he didn't, took credit after someone else did, was the kind of fellow selected for this next stage of meritwash
asciilifeform: i, for one, didn't fully grasp the difference until i heard that charlatan (baggett) speak
asciilifeform: also note that that outfit, like many others (yes, it isn't in 'nyt', but still existed) wrote a miniature 'college' lisp-flavoured scripting language inside their normal runtime
asciilifeform: you can't really pull out 'boost' and retain the naked-eye-plus-patch-util sense of 'this is visibly bitcoind pre-$10-per but with minor changes' thing
thestringpuller: I wonder what discoveries you've made we don't know about <.<;;
mircea_popescu: "I'm an 18 year old currently in my first semester of college at UNM (Studying medicine). All my life I've been a very good girl, pro-feminist all my life, I was in the girl scouts growing up, I got straight As, I don't drink or go out to parties. I found your tumblr the other week and at first I was offended, I don't see how any woman would subject herself to such treatment. I've visited your page multiple times since
asciilifeform: 'i don't care if they're stoking up the ovens, they'll go in'
