moiety: i wonder if it could do interlocking
tablet
moiety: though,
thats epic personalised presents for
the rest of your days
moiety: mike_c:
thats epic,
thanks for shairing... i would make a million of
the rainbow cube
thingys
ozbot: Taste
Testing 3D-Printed Food - YouTube
bounce: the important stuff is all on wire
that
that doesn't seem
to suffer
bounce: can't do
that in
this situation
though. I suppose I could at least separate out ze wifi with an extra box.
bounce: were it up
to me I'd separate out
the docsis3 part into a standalone
thingy and do
the rest elsewhere.
bounce: I'm not (directly) paying for
the connection either
bounce: huh, since
today ze wifi developed a habit of cutting all live connections every hour or so. possibly
the isp did an "upgrade",
they pulled
that before, with similar effects. oh
the joys of CPEs, even brand name issue ("cisco" here)
bounce: the volunteers
tend
to not see it
that way
bounce: (notice how
the industry counts: single. multi.
triple.)
bounce: the keys I have here are all well before
the large leaps around
the
time of
the barefoot controller. perhaps should replace a few.
then again, I'd get inferior flash.
mike_c: no reason cardano wouldn't be susceptible
to
that is
there?
bounce: not just
that.
there's been cases where
the gold key image had some virus or other, causing $largenum of usb keys
to ship
that way from factory
cads: bounce: I
think
that was his point
cads: dat moment when you realize you suddenly need
to know a lot more about what was going in and around some historical event.
cads: I'm sure
they did but I've heard nary a one
cads: bounce: and whether
they had attacks against our
techs
bounce: they did do a lot of good work, but
they certainly weren't
the only ones
mircea_popescu: very
totalitarian system. soon enouhg ALL
THERE IS is X
topic.
cads: bounce: yeah, now I wonder about
the enemy's opposing cryptoparks
mircea_popescu: bounce i'd say it's uncontroversial
that
they did a lot of very good work.
the problem with
the propapress -> wikipedia -> reddit machine oif nonthink is
that it flattens alternatives
bounce: could be something
to do with
the shameful
treatment of
turing,
too,
though. (including
the recent "rehabilitation"
thing)
bounce: you know, it's not even so much wikipedia as some good old fashioned propaganda
that put bletchley park on such a socket
mircea_popescu: the paleologoi. christ himself, you see, was going
to come lift
the siege.
mircea_popescu: bounce dreaming is
the last refuge of
the defeated. you know who else did it ?
bounce: esp. going on
the end
they also put a lot of faith in "wonder weapons", "victory weapons", and such. bit of a parallel with
the US,
that
cads: usually I'm less clueless
than
that but I'll at least not argue based on it :)
cads: haha,
the book I refer
to was neal stephenson's cryptonomicon
cads: I can't imagine we didn't enjoy
the exact same
treatment
cads: maybe
that happened during part of it
bounce: the germans had some good cryptologists
too. funny how you never hear about
them.
cads: but using it in a way such
that
they could not deduce
that we were decyphering everything
cads: haha, all I know about what sunk
the germans I learned from a fictional account of breaking
the Enigma machine
mircea_popescu: if you actually bother looking at
the facts,
the
two regimes are scarcely different.
mircea_popescu: cads
that's nonsense,
the north korea is much less free
than
the average. in fact, about as unfree as
the us.
mircea_popescu: what do you
think sunk hitler,
technological inferiority ? puhleaze.
mircea_popescu: zee germanz had much better "technical capabilities"
than
their intellectual, strategic and ultimately human capabilities.
cads: free as
the north one is
to grant
the humint operators
the latitude needed
to implement every single
tactic from
their wet dreams
turbo_ac100: ;;later
tell kakobrekla im
turbo_ac100 on otc now.
mircea_popescu: if you were a party organiser and all you had
to show me were math wallflowers i'd equally point and laugh at you.
cads: I seriously doubt either of
the koreas have higher
technical capalities
cads: all
those mathematicians and
they're still a laughingstock
to mircea_popescu
mircea_popescu: well, academia is hte largest, but ohter
than
that as a single entity, i believe it.
mircea_popescu: there's a german Peter Sragher version which is pretty decent. but otherwise
the guy seems an incredibly well kept secret. funny how
that works.
cads: we didn't see leaks from
the operations and strategy department
cads: ie, we just saw leaks from
the software development department
cads: this would be
the "strategic level"
that mircea_popescu alluded
to
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform actually, is
there anything in russian by
the guy ?
cads: asciilifeform: is
that
the "two NSAs hypothesis"?
mircea_popescu: (who aren't likely
to get
the reference or have read
the guy's work)
