mircea_popescu: i think it must be blindness throuhg immersion (and a healthy dose of phonetics innocence, obv.)

asciilifeform: btw i once went to an 'alt-right' thing in dc. (with herr handle & co.!) -- and iirc literally everybody in the room was some form of j000

trinque: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1o6-bi3jlxk << who could've predicted the flamboyant voice on this... heh, I dub them alt-boys.

trinque: if that's not the connection, I'm out of ideas

mircea_popescu: o wow check it out, i actually got an email for funkervogt!

Framedragger: i'm certain she's recorded herself (not a professional singer, mind), i'll ask.

mircea_popescu: i don't insist. can i hear her ?

Framedragger: dunno why i said 'lone'. 'nice'.

Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i know a girl who could do it in a pretty lone voice. s/trash metal/some metal and lots of punk/, smoking included, good german, can sing. unless you insist on male voice..

asciilifeform: i had nfi they even had this

asciilifeform: i cannot picture this piece in anything but their lead's voice, must confess

asciilifeform: that one i recall.

mircea_popescu: people do rewrite their own songs, like i do all the time on trilema etc.

trinque: that being - as far as I can tell - the only belief of that sect.

Framedragger: i thought about that rfc, too. mah english.

asciilifeform: Framedragger: when i read 'avian transportaion' i expected a pigeon

Framedragger: http://fd.mkj.lt/stuff/5MB.jpg << avian transportation of 5 megabyte disk (~1965) (probably IBM 2311?) - i just like to imagine myself that the javascript "libraries" of a simplistic "modern" "website" alone often weigh more than that. ties into the whole website obesity crisis thread.

mircea_popescu: "i use x thing because it worked fine before" is exactly how animals get infected after all. biologically i mean.

mircea_popescu: anyway, i'd suspect this is actually the main entry intake for botnet chumpatron.

mircea_popescu: anyway, given the mechanics of the retarded user and of viral infection, i would suspect 100% of these download-things websites selectively scam their users.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-22#1572163 << i'm very much unsurprised. because http://trilema.com/2015/mika-epstein-aka-ipstenu-is-a-thoroughly-clueless-poser/ ☝︎

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform o look at that, i even ended up with a "RunMe.exe"

mircea_popescu: and in random fuck this shit : if you're downloading a bunch of fonts and end up with a humongo pile of spurious folders because hey, people are special, the pill is find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 -I file mv --backup=numbered file . (followed, probably, by for file in *; do mv "$file" `echo $file | tr ' ' '_'` ; done because special people are THAT FUCKING SPECIAL)

trinque: not urgent; I recall you're sick.

trinque: phf: could I get a URL endpoint on btcbase.org/log which redirects to the first line spoken by a nick?

mircea_popescu: gimme time, i'll learn this

mircea_popescu: i'll take bitcoin. what am i getting paid for ?

Joshua-I: Well my visit doesn't have to be a complete waste, since I was just going to ask you what your preferred payment is

asciilifeform: aha. and in light of the 'coarse error of pilotage' seen here, i am not inclined to reinstate it

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=%22rate%22+joshua-i << apparently you had a courtesy rating from asciilifeform back in the summer ; which he took off recently (iirc he did some cleaning out of stale ratings).

Joshua-I: I think it's scattered across 7 planets or something

mircea_popescu: !!ratings Joshua-I

Joshua-I: mircea_popescu I work with gabe running the business side of things

mircea_popescu: Joshua-I it's utterly unclear who you are, again ?

RodrigoBTCF: It seems I can talk now :)

Joshua-I: Since the product has been validated I'll be working on making operations smoother

a111: Logged on 2016-11-18 21:20 mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel so how about you hop in a plane and bring me a coupla ? i'll buy you a steak even!

Joshua-I: I*

Joshua-I: I'm believe gabe came by pitching masamune and you wanted to purchase?

deedbot: Joshua-I voiced for 30 minutes.

mircea_popescu: !!up Joshua-I

mircea_popescu: i c

mats: ya, i like the print format

mats: i don't know anybody else that regularly reads the atlantic

asciilifeform: but i like to imagine that the thing ended up on the sidewalk for a reason... (probably thrown from window, vs from moving car, looks to be pretty clean)

asciilifeform: i have nfi if said corpse even spoke, or 'ghost'

mircea_popescu: well, standard whatever. i don't have it, they don't supply it, story ends neh ?

Framedragger: inb4 "standard practices can suck my dick" - fair, i guess

Framedragger: i know how you dislike 'shared libraries', but honestly this is standard practice, yknow.

Framedragger: that's mainly because the two brows live off of stable donations by their dedicated community, i think. :) but then the community has high expectations and are (in a wishy-washy) sense kinda-shareholders.. so yah, heh.

shinohai: What can I say, the game likes punishing me for taking so long to jump on board.

shinohai: Nope, just like irl I keep getting smalls xD

shinohai: Fucking Eulora ... I had a dream about exploring one night.

diana_coman: my xp with the (very few) df players I know is that they are either so dedicated to df or so comfortable with it that they totally unavailable/unwilling to even looking at something else

mircea_popescu: diana_coman i vaguely recall this.

diana_coman: iirc I *did* mention dwarf fortress some time ago precisely because of some similarities; I think mircea_popescu left a message on their wiki/forum/whatevs but nothing/nobody materialised as a result

mircea_popescu: i... didn't like it.

mircea_popescu: i think you're all a bunch of pervs.

mircea_popescu: i think it was just in my blindspot. apparently everyone goes through a decade-ish of disinterest.

ben_vulpes: i was a fan when i played vidya games

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform btw speaking of "i don't understand what this does therefore it's secure" - you know the rogue rnz ?

Framedragger: there's dcss https://crawl.develz.org/ which you can play using webtiles, or via standalone executable with gfx (iirc), or via terminal / nethack-style. i haven't played a lot of it but it's nice.

asciilifeform: i always wished for one of these rewritten with 'zzt monster zoo'-style graphics.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there was a pretty cool dungeon crawler (demise) which i loved and always regretted they didn't properly implement it as a roguelike with gfx.

phf: also i've been mostly quite in the past two weeks, because i'm sick. i should be back to the regular schedule programming in a week or so

phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-21#1571777 << looks like it, i think it might be a bug with cl-irc, i'll look into it ☝︎

mircea_popescu: Framedragger i used to hold get togethers, we did iirc three.

shinohai: I'd almost bet a Bitcoin that anond from #eulora will come in with it installed on his laptop next time he surfaces.

a111: Logged on 2016-11-21 14:17 mircea_popescu: trinque dots should be stop chars though. i meant actual solid alphanum blocks not "blackmirror.nosedive.final"

trinque: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-21#1571814 << yeah I'll change that. ☝︎

shinohai: I keep reading about this new Ubuntu-based distro Zorin OS ... an "alternative" to Windowze 10

trinque: I'll have the page updates being fired via db trigger. I just don't do this "lets regenerate every page of this book every time the page is read" anymore.

Framedragger: maybe i'll get the opportunity to organize a party in the next 20 years. would be grand.

asciilifeform: the one case i can see for keeping 'corpses' around is if they have sigs, that still stand somewhere from your pov

Framedragger: that makes sense to me, i suppose.

Framedragger: (ah, i guess i see what you mean by 'confined to his own planet'. unrating != negrating.)

Framedragger: asciilifeform: well, regarding whether a gpg contract was broken, and by whom. but i guess since he doesn't seem like being motivated to present his story in one take, instead of passive-aggressively reminding people of the story by hints, it's a bit derp.

deedbot: asciilifeform unrated Joshua-I.

Framedragger: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-21#1571842 << so i take it you've made up your mind, or what. ☝︎

asciilifeform: !!unrate Joshua-I

mircea_popescu: trinque dots should be stop chars though. i meant actual solid alphanum blocks not "blackmirror.nosedive.final" ☟︎

Framedragger: asciilifeform: since i'm fiddling around with postgres for work anyway, i'm curious, if you find a moment, could you maybe send me the postgresql.conf file on phuctor's machine? i'd take a look (it's very possible you know much more re. what's needed there, but i'm just curious about a coupla parameters, doesn't hurt to check) ☟︎

mircea_popescu: hey, i'd totally see trump go on tv first day of term and say "all us college degrees are utterly worthless anyway, so nobody should have to pay back anything to anyone for them."

mircea_popescu: in other news i watched blackmirror.nosedive.

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> i thought it was just a campus. << There are cities named bloomington in Illinois and Indiana, both bloomingtons have campuses. neither are anything special

a111: Logged on 2016-11-20 23:54 Framedragger: "no possibility of transcend", so to speak, following protocol. (re. "can you pay me to do what i'm used to doing when i get paid")

mircea_popescu: i thought it was just a campus.

asciilifeform: 'who said i'm into flying mig, i just dun give a shit how many G's, 1 or 12'

mircea_popescu: but i will point out that i'm not into it per se ; i just don't happen to give a shit.

asciilifeform: or i fuhget, i am not 'pro redditor', do not keep up.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as far as i can see, the old idiocies 'xt' and 'classic' were simply renamed

asciilifeform: waitasec i though he was ~author~ of the segfuckery

mircea_popescu: i thought the other one was the good one ?

Framedragger: heh. labour theory of value for reddit: i spend hour at reddit while you spend hour at reddit at work - why we unequal

Framedragger: i do see the general parallel, sure..

Framedragger: i'm sure that making say decent artisan boots ain't fuckin' easy at all. (sure, working as a knob in a large factory is another thing - though i'd like to see redditards sweat many hours a day at factory and not call for mommy)

Framedragger: "no possibility of transcend", so to speak, following protocol. (re. "can you pay me to do what i'm used to doing when i get paid") ☟︎

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i don't think money does it. they charge like 20 bux a head (yes, same for male or female, SAME IF ALONE etc!!1), but i think i'm on the list mostly because they're petriscared of me. it isn't open to the general public.

Framedragger: "i heard bdsm is the trend nao, i'll go there". such a waste...

mircea_popescu: i could have told mine to jump off the fucking balcony. she would have.
