http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-28#1573807 << they're positively fucking endearing in their unyielding imbecility, "oh, the data acquisition mechanisms / ~scientifically~ conducted polls that told us clinton is
a cinch to win also tell us what the X demographic wants and what trump is delivering and WE THEREFORE KNOW he's not doing what we know they want and blablabla.
☝︎ trinque: pretty close to
a genesis V patch by now
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform iirc we had
a spec for sane log that went along the lines of separations like discussed
ben_vulpes: failed to land
a patch, was summarily executed by handlers
mircea_popescu: apparently
a sane semantic model for fucking unix is still
a bridge too far.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: well i put
a redirect in there
mircea_popescu: apparently there exists
a german alive today sufficiently boneheaded to imagine anyone is willing to use
a german company for any purpose.
mircea_popescu: the exercise of today being
a fine point in case - they can't even be used to play games, though they may marginalloy fit it, we'd be all in bed.
mircea_popescu: course the fact that radeon had
a stellar reputation for being an unworking buggy pos throughout the 90s didn't help
mircea_popescu: i'm pretty sure it's due to the "driver" for radeon mobility 7500 being
a dubious pos which is pretty much sabotaged deliberately.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i;m not dedicated enough to getting old games to run on that thinkpad to chase this further. i'll just use
a different box.
mircea_popescu: we should probably have
a heroes 2 tournament this winter.
mircea_popescu: more and more it becomes evident that whenever something's documented by the open sores folk, it's always for
a reason ; and the reason is always ^
mircea_popescu: chiefly because i can't conceive of
a mapping between the pile of trash and
a log file.
mircea_popescu: they literally ran
a bunch of sed, /holocaust/global warming/ /jews/racists/ whatever, same exact structure down to the t.
mircea_popescu: the history of bestnesses. Make it say the old King and Queen are liars and villains but the Marquess is
a truth-teller and
a champion who has released the world from sorrow forever. Make it say she is the only one who can fix Fairyland and make it great."
mircea_popescu: look at it : "I shall tell you what the lion roared. It roared: you will make
a new future in your stupid bowl, and it will say all the things we want it to say and none of the things we do not! The new future will say that everything good in Fairyland is down to us and everything that goes sideways is down to our enemies. It will say that we are the best people, with the best plans, and the best words, and the best rulers in
mircea_popescu: anyway, it is somewhat refreshing to see the delusional dorks (self-identified as "liberals" or "progressives" or w/e) simpyl lift wholesale the aggregate production of the neonazis since the 50s, change
a few pronouns and bestseller-publish on their oh-so-important notebooks.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i did that when what's-his-name with the harry potter mary sue complex and delusions of computer science / quantum mechanics knowledge made some writing challenge and i fucked him with his own wrists attached to
a telephone pole.
mircea_popescu: "If you have not guessed it already, this dear and daring beast was
a Wyvern.
A Wyverary, if we are to be taxonomically accurate, for though his mother was
a proper Wyvern, his father was
a library. That only sounds strange if both of your parents were precisely the same sort of animal, which hardly ever happens, when you really think about it." << holy shit HOW CAN THEY BE THIS TEDIOUS.
mircea_popescu is vaguely looking for
a root for
a sane os since whenever, last year ?
mircea_popescu: just like everything else "worked", just like how "liberalism" even became
a thing. except it never was much more than the vague notions of life&everything of the friends tv show crew.
ben_vulpes: what, the chinese are going to grant him
a title?
mircea_popescu: it's
a wonder they even botyher burying the corpses, at all. the only focus of interest is what could fucking happen, and there's not so much
a corpse could.
mircea_popescu: anyway, none of you understand how the world works. it isn't that anyone GOT shot. at all. nobody gives
a shit what happens. it's that someone COULD HAVE!!!! that's the only fucking point.
mats: i thought i'd put
a damper on the bloodlust
mircea_popescu: mats in fairness, ohio state prolly best place to pop
a cap in their collective mega-ass.
mircea_popescu: in other news, trilema acceess log for this month is 1.2 gigabytes or about 6mn lines. this web thingee certainly came
a long way.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the momeny they lead with "X is
a nyt bestselling author" you know it's going to be pretty far out there.
Joshua-I: What's your timezone so I have
a feeling?
BingoBoingo: You have
a limited number of minutes to submit before consideration is put on hold due to sleep
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo rereading that god damn that's
a kickass manual.
fd_travel: (we have this plan to have
a 'roboadviser' show user (we find net worth of user from bank accts, hey it's not
a realistic demo) which properties he can buy in $area)
fd_travel: will tell later if we have anything interesting, it's
a total caffeine-infused rush right nao :D
mircea_popescu: this may seem pretty steep
a price for the eucucks to buy some friends ; but one should consider things in perspective : the much weaker friendliness of the iraquis (50% more people) cost the uscucks at least 30 times as much.
mircea_popescu: and in other lulz, the whole eu zone agitprop is ever so impressed at how romania is the only eeuropean country where the euroskeptics/nativists/etc "have yet to make inroads". this much is true. what is also true is that since 2007 (when it joined) romania received 39bn and paid 13bn; the net is over 26bn. this comes to about 1300 euro / capita over almost
a decade. minimum wage in romania is ~0.73 eur/hour, or about 1700 eu
BingoBoingo: Why would there be
a default other than blank?
BingoBoingo: shinohai: Nah, it was
a constipated goat looking to buy brambles
phf: trinque: that's
a nifty wot explorer. are you spitting html from common lisp or some other tech?
trinque: I am going to write up my approach to static HTML websites after I reach
a good rev 1 point with the WoT browser.
shinohai: I was hacking around with
a bash function so I could view wot in w3m, was driving me crazy until I realized wot.deedbot.com doesn't recognize fingerprints in all caps
trinque: an update with search and
a few other things is going up later.
mircea_popescu: lmao euclides.nl is
a b2b automation solutions provider. ima qntra
BingoBoingo: How long does it take for
a conch to grow
a shell capable of holding 8 ounces of RDX and 1 pound of ball bearings? - Test question at Green Party War College
ben_vulpes: yeah artificial shells gave me
a great lol
BingoBoingo: ^
A bit meater because sorta stuff happened but didn't really hit the father of Kim K's children test for getting own headlines

a month is critical to survival you know it ain't the time for that. So we got through our 10 years of law school, money pit foreclosure...and finally on the other side debt eliminated, lifestyle downsized, we are ready to jump in again." << probably the best in the lot. "reality tv stars" / 10 years of lawschool can't afford 50 bux. AMERICA! and do you know what comes right after ?
mircea_popescu: in principle can index by any of the three for new software / maintain current association for extant software, and be ready to migrate when we finally have
a proper gns
a111: Logged on 2016-11-26 19:46 trinque: phf: is there
a way to link to the list of trb patches signed by
a given key?

☟︎ phf: "what would you do if you had
a million dollars? -- i'll tell you what I'd do, man: two chicks at the same time, man."
mircea_popescu: "Well, not ready...we are already in. We got satellite service last week. The technology is grand. DVR's recording up to 5 things at once! Turning it on to find
a list of your favorite shows you can binge on in order!"

☟︎ mircea_popescu: "We have televisions in our house, we just stopped paying for the service around 2006. Was it
a coincidence that we soured on television viewing in the same months we had just finished filming our own debut on HGTV? Probably not, if you've read my explanations of the aftermath. Being on "reality TV" after an intense week of acting made my favorite shows lose the glitz I'd viewed them with. But that wasn't the only reason.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-18 12:32 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform since we're on this btw, the way i want tmsr-rsa key generation to work is as follows :
a contains
a number of entropy bytes specified by user in tmsr-rsa.conf read whenever tmsr-rsa.conf specifies (such as urandom); b contains
a base-tmsr string specified by user. c = base-tmsr(
a).b ; p = nextprime(cut(sha512(c),257)) ; process is repeated for q = nextprime (cut(sha512(c'),258));
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there's absolutely no way that crap should make it in
a v root anyway.
a111: Logged on 2016-11-26 15:49 shinohai: Isn't there
a decrufted version of gpg floating around on deedbot somewhere? apt wants to install this gpg2 garbage despite my best efforts
a111: Logged on 2015-10-31 15:07 asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu didja know that it is impossible to produce
a v-genesis for gnupg-1.4.10 ? it contains unprintable turds, yes ! e.g., the idiot 'localizators', po/*.gmo
