shinohai: Heya nicknaem .... good way to start is to build a therealbitcoin node
mircea_popescu: "our democracy" fellows, very vocal in a crowd.
mircea_popescu: poor fag barely able to pay for his own coffee somehow also hallucinates himself as part of some kind of "elite", it's a whole production in pretense.
BingoBoingo: Maybe he thinks himself a roger VERified comedian?
mircea_popescu: dude thinks himself a comedian and things.
mircea_popescu: impeachment proceedures followed by trump going "omfg the crooks are trying to coup" followed by every guy with a gun marching on washington / mass beatings of faggots in hats on campuses is i suppose the 10/10 outcome here ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: anyway, now that they've engaged seems doubtless a showdown between us's own "noblesse du robe" and the "most powerful man on earth" will last the decade.

ben_vulpes: featuring a radar and iirc a teeny helicopter for neutralizing firearm threats
phf: meanwhile, using my laptop is like playing battleship. where would the cursor jump&click next? i will have to make a trip to the city tomorrow
mircea_popescu: i have seen the set-up, it's basically a truck with generator mod for engine + spare generator in bed + satellite dish.
phf: apparently briefcase computer mods are a thing. wouldn't be practical for travel though without some form of ups though
mircea_popescu: it's a pubescent fantasy of identity.

phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-05#1611523 << actually goes further back, to neuromancer and such. i always thought that proper equipment for a "cyberjockey" is a portable, self-contained "deck" ☝︎
ben_vulpes: there is an a record that points at the ip for that box
ben_vulpes: can you paste a traceroute or some such demonstrating?
pete_dushenski: budgeted. i'm in no rush. it's a satisfying and edifying exercise in its own right. c is new waters.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski mentally you should budget about a year in between the first "hey ima program something" and shit you do finally starting to make sense to others.

mircea_popescu: and check out phf becoming a study in republican performance. "participation forces you to think about things completely, which results in either a decision you're not ready yet or else a sane implementation, both of which are perfect responses in and of themselves."
a111: Logged on 2017-02-04 08:06 phf: so i was inspired by tmsr in 2014 to send out my gpg pubkey to a bunch of services that i use. most places simply ignored it, but today it paid off with the epic uptime machine. all i had to do was to point at an old email, pubkey in /root/ and send a signed request for a ssh pubkey replacement to recover a machine in barely amount of time it took to send three emails
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-04#1611353 << sounds like this ip should be advertised, i wouldn't mind getting a box or two there. epic uptime + gpg awareness = win ☝︎
mircea_popescu: kinda a half-step against the idiocy of iron today, build remote services. of course this also has the drawback that it may encourage a very retarded view where every lord vies for pushing his own walled garden above the others, but i'm hoping thinking people can innoculate themselves against that idiocy for long enough
shinohai: Building Republican dns one piece at a time.
asciilifeform: 'i'm a stoker'
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: same thing as 100yrs ago, 'i'm a brake man'
ben_vulpes: i cannot fathom what is going on in the mind of somoene who is a <lang>"dev"
ben_vulpes: phf, asciilifeform: pretty standard recruiting tactic, appeal to identity. "i am a python/rails dev".

shinohai: These days I'm happy to look at any pic that doesn't have a goddamned snapchat filter on it.
Framedragger: (`!$ssh` won't work for a bit, database server which scriba connects to needs to be reinstalled from the ground up)
asciilifeform: in very other vintage lulz, 'As Technical Lead on a Air Force major command and control system, our initial implementation used textual representations for all the messaging between the distributed workstations and the central server. This got us a working product much faster than dealing with binary representations since the workstation and the central server hardware were so contrary to each other...'
shinohai: Last month was a sparse month with move and all
asciilifeform: if you have a mouse surface -- why would you ☟︎
phf: fwiw, i also opted out of a travel gpg key, because i realized my infrastructure is not sufficiently developed to support that mode. i have a hopefully reasonable alternative that i'm relying on, but rather not explain till i come back
phf: in yet other tmsr vs rest of world. things that i built with the correct mindset work perfectly on a dodgy cell connection in the middle of nowhere. not so much VC produced monstrosities. so much for "bitcoin in africa"
phf: in a mildly humid climate, outside, but under a fan, my cursor starts jumping all over the place, doing left and right clicks at will. wtf.

mircea_popescu: it is not physically possible for the barren fucking wastes to have such a thing as a university much like it's not possible for a two inch songbird to have "an erect penis"
shinohai: What a waste of a perfectly good Adult theatre
mircea_popescu: and no, there IS NO fucking reason british columbia should even have a refurbished adult theatre which it pompously if pointlessly calls "university"
asciilifeform: this dun look like a papermonkey, but moar like industrial grunt ordered to write paper once a decade by pointyhair boss
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform http://dblp.uni-trier.de/pers/hd/c/Charlet:Arnaud << random nobody, did a coupla of papers in a decade, moved on to gay for pay or w/e it is they do to support themselves in europe these days.
mircea_popescu: here's the scoop : if you're a nobody-professor-of-something-or-the-other you aren't above the average barrista. there is legitimate need for many many girls working the bar, working the pole, working the spotlight, working the suckers, working the cock etc.
mircea_popescu: i guess as per your "i can trivially pretend to have a 1TH man through employing 1k 1GH chickens" but still.

mircea_popescu: i imagine they have a dentist specializing in bucktooth palleatives with a fabulous practice
mircea_popescu: and in other lulz, there's apparently a city in pennsylvania called "california", which has a university, which is called... california university. in pennsylvania.
mircea_popescu: hey, "law abiding" right ? all it takes for the empire of rogues to exist is a bunch of law abiding dorks.
asciilifeform: a tap on any of a dozen boxes (e.g., archive.is) will reveal ip used by any of the folx here on a particular day.
