mircea_popescu: nuttin wrong with that.
a111: Logged on 2018-09-17 19:57 mircea_popescu: it seems to me to be the right thing here, "connect when you're you". otherwise, who are we talking to ?
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-17#1851016 << fwiw asciilifeform has various robotics passing log material to him even when he is far from a 2way terminal ☝︎
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform aha hm. totally forgot.
mircea_popescu: propos fdor teh archiver lobbes !
a111: Logged on 2018-09-03 19:23 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/cltKR/?raw=true << you were in a few times.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform did it ever do what he describes ? i dun think i ever saw it.
a111: Logged on 2018-09-17 19:56 mircea_popescu: anyway, seems to me "automatic connections" is a take on "a man walks into a bar" consisting of "but it wasn't really a man, just the hologram of one"
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-17#1851013 << but this, not so much. currently i have a znc poured into cement, and loathe to change anyffing at all about it. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform hanbot predicted this.
a111: Logged on 2018-09-17 19:38 mircea_popescu: trinque tbh i was thinking of revising the voice model altogether, in favour of a voice-or-kick model.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-17#1850999 << i like this idea, ☝︎
mircea_popescu: then like that it's perfectly systematizable, "!!add #fuckall plain 0 intolerant" meaning "join #fuckall, kick/ban anyone who fails to answer your plaintext question, voice everyone who does answer permanently"
BingoBoingo: Remember the incredibly effective Bitbet captcha
mircea_popescu: simply have a knob that decides whether {crypto|plain} auth is used ; crypto does what it does now, plain asks a question, "Tell me what color is the sky", picked from a list or somesuch. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: noob support needs to be as simple and requiring of as little initiative as possible. and once that's made like that, why am i forcing you to keep an entirely separate model for #trilema ? when the same thing would actually work better in point of fact ?
mircea_popescu: i guess "this cat not worth the skinning", in general, maybe. sure, not like the current model is that broken. but if you're going to support things like #pizarro, deedbot pming new names is way the fuck better than pizarro website or sales funnel including a "and then send !!up to deebot" etc.
mircea_popescu: erry time i come in i send !!up to deedbot, i sent thousands to date, why ? it knows what i'm gonna say to it the momen ti show up, doesn't it ? who does anything @ deedbot BUT "!!up" when they come in ?
mircea_popescu: what's exactly the benefit of having whichever-unvoiced-name idling ? that what, "they can confirm the logs" ? wut the fuck is ever going to ask the voiceless anything, i need anonvouching like i need featherhairs.
mircea_popescu: anyway, mostly thinking outloud.
mircea_popescu: not like log reading and the !Q later device aren't available to cross presence gaps.
mircea_popescu: it seems to me to be the right thing here, "connect when you're you". otherwise, who are we talking to ? ☟︎
trinque: not at all, knife can cut in the direction of "don't autoconnect, connect when you're you", and is entirely sensible.
mircea_popescu: you're saying this level of incarnation is too much to ask ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, seems to me "automatic connections" is a take on "a man walks into a bar" consisting of "but it wasn't really a man, just the hologram of one" ☟︎
trinque: can, but I guarantee there are cases where someone's client will reconnect 5 times without them home
mircea_popescu: "it's not so much that there's no more pie, as it is we ate the pie." hurr durr, endless infinity engine of unredeemable externalizations.
mircea_popescu: "makes it sound like she has reneged on a gender agreement, rather than come to terms with her identity" << exactly what fucking happened, duh.
trinque: mircea_popescu: eh? I'm not following you. implementing what you described would get someone banned if their IRC client is automatically reconnecting during netsplits and etc
mircea_popescu: might as well make use of the golums.
mircea_popescu: lola torvalds henceforth ? this is not even a bad idea.
BingoBoingo: In other Linus/Lola Transitions http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/TMwik/?raw=true
mircea_popescu: why should we be asked to talk to machines ?
mircea_popescu: "repeated reconnects without meat present at terminal" <<< this seems at best disrespectful.
trinque: can see the wisdom in it, if freenode were reliable. would need to account for days of bad freenode weather, or repeated reconnects without meat present at terminal would result in a ban.
mircea_popescu: no more need for !!up, deedbot messages you on join, you got 5 minutes or somesuch to respond. if you don't, it kicks, and if it kicks you multiple times a day it also bans you.
mircea_popescu: trinque tbh i was thinking of revising the voice model altogether, in favour of a voice-or-kick model. ☟︎☟︎
PeterL: at least now I can join #pizarro, but still can't talk there
trinque: I could move it ahead of hotwallet; oughta get linux repo work done first while the dwarf-fortress-isms of portage are still fresh in my head
mircea_popescu: any good reason to not shuffle it close in ?
trinque: whole notion behind the invoicing system was that I'll offer these kinds of subscription services
trinque: that sort of hired-deedbot service is already on my long conveyor, out past hotwallet, out past repossession of linux. I'd not be offended if somebody else did this, but my version will be coming regardless
mircea_popescu: trinque is this something you'd be interested in doing ? expand deedbot thusly, maybe charge chans a fee ? ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: might actually offer a bot-as-a-service that pms all new joins to the channel a question, and if it doesn't get the answer it doesn't voice them
BingoBoingo: If #eulora can handle, we might have to raise our tolerance for the noise. Or get a bot going that than autokickbans on the phrase "Allah is doing"
mod6: Alright, we'll try that. Also gave info to ops on how to do things so I'm not the one channel master.
mircea_popescu: or what was it, +r, w/e, need to be registered to join
mod6: i mean, for a channel to be a useful place to do things, one must be able to read it and its logs.
mircea_popescu: does +m no longer work then ?
mod6: i totally agree. kinda between charybdis and scylla on this tho 'eh
trinque: also apparently stood in the way of a sale for PeterL, albeit temporarily
mircea_popescu: anti-government activities for the win.
mod6: can't really contest with that
trinque: mod6: can't operate a storefront without being willing to ban-per-derp
mod6: Also folks, Pizarro needs to purchase some fiat, so if you're interested, can start up an auction if you like, or can do WU or whatever. Minimum $500, please. Let us know if interested. ☟︎☟︎
mod6: So they went back on.
mod6: And ya, would love to have #pizarro open and welcoming to everyone. I turned off the restrictions this AM and within 3 minutes, guy came in and shit in the foyer.
mod6: PeterL: There really only is one package at this time, the Hosted Shell Plus, which is 0.002 BTC/mo, but gives you all the items you require for a blog.
PeterL: mod6: I was looking at the 0.001 /mo one, would that work for a blog?
BingoBoingo: But you can encrypt the ssh pub key to myself, mod6 or both of us
PeterL: why is #pizarro invite only, are not potential customers pointed there by the website?
PeterL: bingoboingo what key is that encrypted to?
mod6: Hi PeterL: BingoBoingo was telling me that you wanted a Hosted Shell Plus plan for 0.002 BTC/mo, correct?
PeterL: hey there
asciilifeform doesn't grasp who and for what needs yet-another paypal, just as the last N-1 times
asciilifeform: '“While these forms of anti-government activities do not involve violence, they are every bit as insidious and represent a clear and present danger to the economic stability of this country,” she said.' etc
asciilifeform: trinque: i cited that one in my ancient http://www.loper-os.org/?p=939 piece , aha
trinque: this must be that original sin people talk about
trinque: https://web.archive.org/web/20110325052709/http://www.nysun.com/editorials/a-unique-form-of-terrorism/87269/ << ???A unique form of domestic terrorism??? is the way the U.S. Attorney for the Western District of North Carolina, Anne M. Tompkins, is describing attempts ???to undermine the legitimate currency of this country.???
asciilifeform: trinque: but lol, see, those were cuntry rubes, scamming without Official inca franchise
trinque recalls some other folks being arrested for "counterfeiting" after creating the "liberty dollar"
ben_vulpes: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/HUrlW/?raw=true << winklevii taking a crack at "tether" market
a111: Logged on 2014-07-30 13:57 asciilifeform: g: 'show me the real budget.' a: 'you're asking too much. that's off limits to you.'
asciilifeform: the lizards, having access to the http://btcbase.org/log/2014-07-30#778096 figs, naturally switched to the 'help'em downregulate their wants' tack. ergo 'tits in the mud' becoming order of the day. ☝︎
asciilifeform: the fundamental flavour of the snake oil being sold, 'one day errybody can have ERRYTHING THEY WANT!11' , is quite similar in both
asciilifeform suspects that 'mother earth mamie socialism' and 'galacticexploration socialism' are not wholly separate, psychiatrically, items. back when 'mother industry will provide' was sustainable religion, that was the dominant flavour. after errybody's tasted buffett's petro-caviar, no longer appealed, same psychotypes went to 'mother earth will provide' historic default
asciilifeform: what's their thing implemented in... befunge ?!
asciilifeform: holyfuq that url
mircea_popescu: meanwhuile in lulz, "WHIPPED BECAUSE SHE WAS IMPERTINENT Then Miss DeCrist Was Chained to a Negress Until She Fainted"
asciilifeform: helps to put current-day crapple into correct perspective. it is a creation of 1990s microshit ( massive dough infusion ), originally to defend against 'monopoly bust'. ended up revived as a replacement 'usg dept of kompyooting' as the original began to show signs of rust
a111: Logged on 2015-02-17 03:31 mircea_popescu: meanwhile, moore's dead, and the thing will suffer the exact fate of printing.
trinque: "so long as we all revere picard it totally isn't hierarchy!"
mircea_popescu: the whole "women are people too, muh feelings, rape is bad mkay, e=mc2 is mean because it priviledges the speed of light over other speeds much more important to us" mamie-ism is entirely a different flavour
mircea_popescu: it was a very different flavour of socialism than what's currently prevailing in pantsuilands. this was supposed to be pretty much exactly star trek, "better living through technology [and carefully not looking under the rugs desighnated 'do not look under this rug']".
asciilifeform: lol, where do you find these !
mircea_popescu: i never perceived him as anything other than or besides https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FM-2030 character. ☟︎
asciilifeform: 'effective monopolist', sold the users 100 $ scsi cables, and 'make'em like it'
mircea_popescu: anyway, the "millenialist", so to call them, "star trek is socialist future" pantsuit group lost pretty much everything in the 2010s religious war with the "ugly fat negro women with their tits in the mud is socialist future" group.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: that was the marketing dept. d00d himself was moar of a quimby.
mircea_popescu: it's a wonder they didn't cryo-whatever him.
mircea_popescu: except "what i want" is "unleash the creativity in every droplet of mankind" sorta bunk.
trinque: I think they'd have rolled him right over by now, no pretense of higher ground left
trinque: apparently not, better build something behind the walls
trinque: in the same pretense as torvalds, "I tell people no; this is it, right?"
mircea_popescu: that he croaked is lofty irony, in that sense, but i can't imagine what coming out it'd have taken. how was he in ?
asciilifeform: hey, the alpha centaurians who only see the radio crapola from us, and nuffin else, prolly distinguish even less.
mircea_popescu: trinque i dunno, he was into that whole "live forever in a turtleneck and short hair" pantsuit churchlet.
mircea_popescu: not proposing this as a virtue.
mircea_popescu: consequently all sorts of things are the same to me, or not worth the distinguishing, that i believe aren't to the more involved observer.
trinque was musing in the office earlier that Jobs died before his coming out, lucky man
