diana_coman: and hm, it seems
that it's more like ~all from one single node actually? (pizarro hosted, yes but is
that
the only one
that is hosted by pizarro?)
diana_coman: I don't see 149.56.19.79 in
the list of advertised nodes
Mocky: asciilifeform, diana_coman: my phone's not paid off so can't unlock. maybe
those hundies
that could pay it off will find a better use in
the short
term, so
that's why cheap second phone. and yeah, roaming
turned off.
☟︎ diana_coman: really? I
thought
there was a site you were recommending precisely for "good ada code", wasn't
there?
diana_coman: asciilifeform, aha! let
the code stay
there
though for future reference now
diana_coman: possibly even buy a bunch of cheap ones, unlock and
then just plug into
them whatever/wherever sim(s)
BingoBoingo: Mocky: How are you doing on soaking
the luggage in poisons?
☟︎ BingoBoingo: That works
too. Just
try
to price phones
there, it will likely be cheaper
to pick up
the cheap unlocked deal before you depart
☟︎ Mocky: I
think I'm going
to pick up a cheap unlocked phone as mine isn't unlocked
BingoBoingo: Mocky: I got my sim at a mall kiosk. You may find better luck at
the airport.
BingoBoingo: Rather
than using
the cell network services orcs
tend
to funnel much of
their contacting
through "Whatsapp" so hygeine accordingly
mircea_popescu: in other not-really-news, i had some "old parr" at bar/disco (that had nothing else).
that
thing is distinctly
the sheep bladders whiskey.
jurov: And
the IP address mirror is
the foundation box where I'm presently migrating
the mailinglist.
mircea_popescu: anyway, ima
take girls out. will be back for more of
this later!
mircea_popescu: the error
to
this view is in assigning agency
to animals.
they had none. whether
the proverbial diamonds are in my safe or in my pigs,
they're still mine.
a111: Logged on 2018-09-30 02:10 asciilifeform: whereas when somebody
throws coin into a prb wallet, for any reason whatsoever, whether because he is idjit or because we made it harder
to avoid,
that's coin into usg coffers.
mircea_popescu: in
that
they end up sold
to
the man with
the bag of shiny beads ?
mircea_popescu: this is an important fucking point -- IF, and
that is a humongously immense IF, we do not actually burn everyone down,
that everyone gotta pay. and pay well.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: every hour you spend suing
the government is an hour you don't spend burning down
the police station.
mircea_popescu: and all
the people
that put in, a man-hour or a man-decade into his project (i don't mean
the fucktards, i mean ~the actual people~) could have done something useful in
that hour or decade.
mircea_popescu: linus is
the shaman in
this picture. i'd have been better off without any linux,
than with his sorry ass excuse for an os.
mircea_popescu: i would rather die of
the fucking colic,
than spend
time at
the shaman's "office" and
then die of
the colic anyway.
mircea_popescu: right. such as, for instance, a fucking os you can
trust.
mircea_popescu: if linus wasn't around
to subvert early republican effort, it's not
the case "republic wouldn't have ever existed" ; but it is
the case republic would have been greater and better without his despicable ass.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you
think if lincoln didn't show up
to fuck up
the us constitution under
the guise of "black chicks code",
the issue of black chicks and coding would have never been addressed or somehow resolved ?
mircea_popescu: and
this is what
they do, and
this is
the bitter fruit whereby you know
them :
their activity results in
things being worse
than if
they never existed at all.
mircea_popescu: these fujcking morons managed
to
turn ~~~AVIATION~~~, humanity's oldest dream, into a LIFETIME NEGATIVE VALUE activity.
mircea_popescu: had it fizzled in 1993, like so many other vaporware manalone projects,
the world
today ~would have been better off~.
mircea_popescu: it is ~regrettable~ linux even got started AT ALL in
the current circumstances.
mircea_popescu: the ~only~
thing you get out of "removing obstacles" is another linus debacle, whereby you belabour for however many decades under
the false flag of an unredeemable asshole. he will sell you out, and pretend he's doing you a favour.
mircea_popescu: what impedes
them is not it, but everything-not-it, namely :
themselves.
their miserable orc nature. if it washes, let it wash, and if it doesn't wash, let
them hang.
a111: Logged on 2018-09-30 02:08 asciilifeform: if idjit breaks it, he can do no harm
thereby
that prb does not already do; if he runs a valid node, it contributes
to strength of
the net.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-30#1855832 <<
translating
the scripture has
the significant disadvantage
that all sorts of morons "get
to
thinking" about "how it should be", down
the line you end up with anglicanism, protestantisms, etc.
the fact
that scripture is written in human language is not "impediment put in way of orcs".
☝︎ a111: Logged on 2018-09-30 02:06 ben_vulpes: is
there some fetlife for nerds funnel under optimization?
mircea_popescu: segwit was always a matter of "hipsters & doofuses community chests, someone
takes it all sometime"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i meant politically, not
technologically. yes,
technologically
they owe us more
than
they owe
their mom & dad.
a111: Logged on 2018-09-30 01:51 asciilifeform: and yes if
there were some magical way
to get errybody who benefits from
tbf and ergo working btc net,
to put into
the piggy, it'd be splendid,
thing could fund even such
things as flotillae of noads, or even
trbi dev, etc, whoknows. but
there is no magic. and it is a lucky
thing
that
tbf in fact has
the coin with which
to do
the bare minimum and host patches ( not on shitazon! jurov ! ) and handful of reliable nodes.
mircea_popescu: miners have
today exactly all
the options
they had in 2015.
mircea_popescu: and so following. shit rots because it's shit, not because will
to power.
a111: Logged on 2018-09-30 01:47 asciilifeform:
the continued convertibility of btc into saecular goods, e.g. rack space, is not separable from healthy 'ecology' sadly.
mircea_popescu: i can not possibly
think of one single name
that satisfies all of a) is relevant
to bitcoin ; b) is not in l1 and c) is not so fucking stupid, own feces constitute a good portion of its diet.
a111: Logged on 2018-09-30 01:45 asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: if heathendom drifts far enuff into prbism, as
things are currently we're blockless
mircea_popescu: yes, wealthier and larger l1. but
the only way
there is
through
talk
to more people ; and pointedly not
through imagining
things.
mircea_popescu: i see
the point of hind-front,
though ideally not entirely as a
time function.
mircea_popescu: people using your software
that are
the usual sort of idiots... you ain't got anything going
there.
a111: Logged on 2018-09-30 02:24 ben_vulpes: not surfacing every single person capable of operating a v for subsequent filtering of whether or not
they are ready
to convert also yields.
trinque: speculative proposal is
to have
tbf do same snapping up of
their l2, see what happens.
trinque: no offense
to anyone involved
trinque: their
time is short because
they're all pulling salaries in shitland
trinque: only
thing gonna free up l1 hands is wealthier l1
☟︎ trinque: good investments oughta be able
to drive new customers
to pizarro for infrastructure.
