asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: observe that i did not put a ram buffer in FG (aside from the 16bit debias/accumulator ) , it was not happenstance.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: eat the l0g...
asciilifeform: diana_coman, mircea_popescu lemme know if the given cure, is curative. ( no change to diana_coman's coad is needed )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: fwiw rockchip and similar boards actually include several ttl-level serial ports.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: there is sometimes 1 or even 2 rs232 ports , but they go at -12v/+12v , and needs level shifter, which in turn oscillates, and potentially pollutes rng
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: there's no ttl serial on pc mobo
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: we dun have this item to begin with
asciilifeform: btw, diana_coman , mircea_popescu , there's visible sys log barf from pl2303 when operating diana_coman's test :

asciilifeform: i'ma let mircea_popescu say, whether Right Thing is to start with (2) and proceed to (1), or straight to (1) .
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 do you need it or something ? << Not at all, Sir. I was going to let it expire indeed.
asciilifeform: ( i recall a trilema article where mircea_popescu actually walked fleanode looking for signs of life, found ~0 )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: spambot, spammed '9000' unmoderated chans
mod6: The one that mircea_popescu rented for douchebag doesn't expire until the 19th iirc. I'll update you on that one. Unless mircea_popescu says to nuke it ahead of time.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: note, not in the i-dun-give-half-a-fuck-what-it-costs market, either
a111: Logged on 2016-08-27 15:03 mircea_popescu: "if i make it what i think it should be it crashes"
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: happened to me '9000' times when testing FG, and earlier iron.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, ahaha dadatroll; but now I see why it didn't even ring a bell at all as I probably missed the comments section there/didn't follow it
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the astonishing bit isn't even that system5 unix had this nonsense, but that the linux derps faithfully re-created it.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, I don't recall it but sounds apt (as dr. a does wherever I read him)
phf: mircea_popescu: to be honest i didn't read into it past the roleplaying humor, but upon immediate reflection, your objection makes equally obvious sense
phf: mircea_popescu: well, we had conversations about esoteric societies in the past, and there's a reason for why the logs are public and everything that follows
a111: Logged on 2014-11-30 06:31 mircea_popescu: like the stuff discussed above re usg agency redhat, fuycking up linux. EXACTLY the stiuation of the giant ruining a chair.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, well, it *does* answer that question: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-20#1827889 ☝︎
phf: mircea_popescu: it's an adam wieshaupt quote, and i take its meaning to be in line with the stereotypes about his organization, control through influence rather than direct domination
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: very old noose: e.g. http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-24#1775301 ( he replaces all mentions of #trilema with '#fraudsters', and of mircea_popescu with something or other, i fughet, and possibly other substs ) ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2016-03-28 13:11 mircea_popescu: and so, this is the end for this particular irc channel as a venue for tmsr. the irc festivities are moving over to #trilema ; with a more selective lordship list and improved tools all around. you're welcome to join - but leave the fiat mind behind, lest it drag you too back down into the swamp.
a111: Logged on 2018-07-29 16:12 mircea_popescu is actually quite curious if esthlos managed to do two days yest :D

a111: Logged on 2018-07-30 00:21 mircea_popescu: and steam excavators to dig them.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: to round off prev thread , http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-30#1838243 is exactly it -- i'd prefer 'steam' waiters too, if these existed ! somehow asciilifeform is 100% blind to the 'feeling served' pleasure. i like work to happen, dun much care how, and steam beats meat just about erry time. ☝︎
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i have nfi in what shithole the d00d in the clip lives, even here there is kerosene.
a111: Logged on 2018-07-24 16:31 asciilifeform: it went approx like this, iirc some time in 2016 : asciilifeform : 'if quality slavegurlz can be trained to do anything , mircea_popescu couldja spare 1 or 2 for ada battallion ' mircea_popescu : 'hell no, why would i waste any on such a thing; what next, i will ask asciilifeform to do field work detail in their place ? '
asciilifeform: i thought mircea_popescu brought own servant hands errywhere
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: so the appeal of cr -- the climate, the iguanas ?
a111: Logged on 2018-07-29 14:08 phf: i think mircea_popescu benefits the more virginal the peasants are around him. easier to source untainted (?) bulk meat of four legged and two legged kind
a111: Logged on 2018-07-29 14:03 asciilifeform: asciilifeform's puzzler is , re how mircea_popescu gave verdict 'argentines are subhuman' but then moves closer to equator, where monkeys , and somehow there - 'not subhuman'
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i can see this pov. fwiw my emulated mircea_popescu says : 'if ameritards were given their just deserts per their actual productivity, they would then lack not only their gas stove, but would not even have primus'

a111: Logged on 2018-07-28 18:27 mircea_popescu: lobbes oh i see what happened, so basically you went "shit, i'll do this auction fix thing once i get the whole bot rewritten".
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: or possibly the ordinary bureaucratic tunnel vision ( ~100% of 'pirate' of commercial interest to usa 'music' cartels lives precisely in the 'plebe fm' range specified )
a111: Logged on 2018-07-28 16:43 mircea_popescu: speaking of nothing in particular, i'd say erryone who hasn't read http://trilema.com/2016/the-herd-of-independent-minds-or-has-the-avantgarde-its-own-mass-culture/ should prolly do that now.
a111: Logged on 2017-08-03 18:20 mircea_popescu: how did the poet put it, "the writing head does write, and having writ, moves on
a111: Logged on 2015-01-21 01:37 mircea_popescu: very common problem people have on the internet, the "everyone is as stupid as me / everyone's a goat the same gender and age as me" issue.
lobbes: mod6, mircea_popescu, other interested parties ^^
lobbesbot: AUCTION # 338 STARTED by mircea_popescu: 8.2k wFF q0 Opening: 1bn coppers Ending: 2018-08-03 16:33:06 UTC (168 hours) ☟︎
lobbesbot: lobbes: Sent 1 hour and 3 minutes ago: <mircea_popescu> yet i noticed you've not provided an eta.
lobbes: mircea_popescu: this makes a lot of sense, ty. Ima read diana_coman's blog post you referenced and study Mocky's style of communication. I will then provide a proper eta tonight
lobbesbot: mircea_popescu: The operation succeeded.
a111: Logged on 2018-07-26 19:51 mircea_popescu: lobbes_sans_znc ok but i mean, it's been two weeks!
lobbes_sans_znc: mircea_popescu: Currently trying to diagnose why my logbot install is not sending from 'outbox' table. Looking I'll need to learn some basic emacs in order to determine -where- it is failing here. See also thread-fragment  >> http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-22#1837189 ☝︎
lobbesbot: mircea_popescu: The operation succeeded.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as i gather, these folx inhabit a self-complete leprosorium, with 'rational', non-draconic 'explanation' for erry possible misfortune
deedbot: Invoiced mircea_popescu 0.22505299 << S.NSA colocation (dulap) through June 2019
mod6: !!invoice mircea_popescu 0.22505299 S.NSA colocation (dulap) through June 2019 ☟︎☟︎
mod6: 0.22505299 BTC sound better mircea_popescu ?
asciilifeform: plox to invoice mircea_popescu ( he is not only chairman but also treasurer )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: let's take a 1y
mod6: mircea_popescu: S.NSA was paid up through June 30th, 2018 for dulap's colocation. We can do another quarter (back dated to July 1st) that will carry S.NSA through September 30th, 2018 for a total of: 0.06251472 BTC (0.02083824 BTC/mo). If this is agreeable, let me know, or if you have any questions.
a111: Logged on 2016-12-31 19:32 mircea_popescu: fortunately, mathematics is simple. V is the set of all sets. by convention, the first index, V0, is the empty set.
a111: Logged on 2018-05-19 23:09 mircea_popescu: "ia, not ai."
a111: Logged on 2018-07-25 03:08 mircea_popescu: esthlos http://blog.esthlos.com/log-reading-week-3/#footnote_1_30 << what's that mean ?!
a111: Logged on 2017-05-15 22:36 mircea_popescu: "Somewhat fortunately Balsamiq was too successful for that, and Giacomo was forced to hire more and more people. Balsamiq is now being built by 25 members, who service around 0.5M customers and manage 10,000 new transactions a month. All of it generating about $7M a year." << this is actually a model-run business. had nfi mp-style even exists in fiat world, but lo and behold. took 10 years to get to 7mn a year, sustainably.
trinque: mircea_popescu: correct
deedbot: Invoiced mircea_popescu 0.03542985 << July 2018 prorated invoice for UY3
mod6: !!invoice mircea_popescu 0.03542985 July 2018 prorated invoice for UY3
mod6: mircea_popescu: um, I actually don't know what was factored in for the whole year. my guess is that one may have had a discount for paying a whole year in advance. where this number has a bit of a higher margin for month-to-month.
lobbesbot: mircea_popescu: 0.0559418684211
a111: Logged on 2018-07-03 16:01 mircea_popescu: so trinque could it be possible to not be possible to pay the same invoice twice cuz that's the point of invoices in the first place, they should die once paid
mod6: mircea_popescu, diana_coman : Ben and I worked out a prorated amount for UY3 for the month of July. It comes to a total of 19 days, which will amount to: 0.03542985 ☟︎
mod6: mircea_popescu, asciilifeform : Dulap's quarterly service was finished at the end of june. So we need to figure out if you want to pay for dulap's colocation either quarterly, or yearly. But it does need to include July.
a111: Logged on 2018-07-24 16:33 mircea_popescu: but yes, if you've got a competent spy you're not going to make her a competent kbd monkey -- for approximately the same reason people don't usually eat their children. acceptable substitutes for flesh can usually be found.
asciilifeform: ( or see also mircea_popescu's seven dwarves story, similar. )
a111: Logged on 2018-07-24 15:09 mircea_popescu: i might get this inept slut a blog though... what'd pizarro think about giving my stupid whores slots on the mp-wp megaserver ?
asciilifeform: it went approx like this, iirc some time in 2016 : asciilifeform : 'if quality slavegurlz can be trained to do anything , mircea_popescu couldja spare 1 or 2 for ada battallion ' mircea_popescu : 'hell no, why would i waste any on such a thing; what next, i will ask asciilifeform to do field work detail in their place ? ' ☟︎
mod6: Which, conflicts with the notes. And to your point, mircea_popescu, we need to get better at comms & note sharing.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: at current rate of interrupts, 2-3/month . but yes, will have to be optimized.
asciilifeform: ( and iirc we already have a thread in the l0gz where mircea_popescu 'they could! be trained to do technical works but i would not waste prime chix on soul-rotting butugychag' , so no particular reason to review unless mircea_popescu feels like )
asciilifeform: i'ma have to take mircea_popescu's word for it re the diff b/w the 2 chix
a111: Logged on 2018-07-24 15:09 mircea_popescu: i might get this inept slut a blog though... what'd pizarro think about giving my stupid whores slots on the mp-wp megaserver ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i read the 'how things have changed' piece and from the opening 'Six years ago that was even correct ; but meanwhile consider' expected a 'seawater uranium mining nao +ev' but turns out nope ; moar hieroglyphic sluts ? or what am i missing
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: controlled techno-regress (e.g. in this case, from alphabets to hieroglyphs) is a perennial obsession among the jwz folx , the same people want to mandate earth latrines instead of watercloset, BingoBoingo's butane cycle fridge , etc. notion being, i suspect, 'wind back the clock to when we mattered'
mod6: mircea_popescu: I don't see any problem with it as long as it's all paid up and we can you or them directly for it.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if your pet can operate a mp-wp, can use, why not
mod6: ok thanks, mircea_popescu. noted.
asciilifeform: mod6: relatedly , douchebag's subscription ( purchased by mircea_popescu ) also expires end of month iirc
mod6: np mircea_popescu, just trying to make sure we're keeping pizarro's house clean. cheers
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: where was that woodchipper trilema
trinque: thanks mircea_popescu; glad to see it working out.
a111: Logged on 2018-07-22 16:54 mircea_popescu: nevertheless, fwih lisp is exactly ideal for this sort of tokenize-and-replace job. cuz ai and everything right ?
a111: Logged on 2018-07-22 16:53 mircea_popescu: spykedbot well, the google translate approach is dubious at best, but at least ~it handles all inputs~. this is an important property.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: that's the lulzy part, the 'standard items' pretty much guaranteed not to work, they're built to be used in resonant (single-freq, or at least quite narrow band) system
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: tricky bit is shape, rather than material ( and for quarter-wave , you need a 2-3 metre on the wide end thing )
mircea_popescu: was re <asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: one of the things that never ceases to fascinate me re physics crackpots, is how rarely they grasp the sheer 'unreasonable effectiveness' of making ~political~ , rather than simply technical, cuts
