diana_coman: hm, but no way to even attend one of the events i.e. as visitor?
asciilifeform: no moar welders, pipe fitters, ~same crew lays the hose as lays fiber
asciilifeform: ( the q of where tortoise to go, so as not straight to soup, is ~separate~ q )
asciilifeform: funnily enuff , last time asciilifeform went to dig, turned up people who claim to conjure up 'ro ancestor' for $toyota, and bake legit passport; but i'ma believe it when i see it and as far as can throw it ( plus they only work on ukrs, which is imho a dead giveaway of spamola )
mircea_popescu: "crackdown" comes from the same mental universe as "pantsuit has always last word -- and it is yes sir".
mircea_popescu: the very verbiafge, you know ? "crackdown" ? as fucking if what, the pantsuit isn't a party favour, passed around for anal freely ?
asciilifeform: but yes, i'm not esp surprised that the derps 'working' on 3600. given as 1) 'ivory' needs ~20-50 k $ in either chinese microscopist, or nixon's burglars , take yer pick 2) 3600 is massive forest of idjit hackolade, which these people seem to ~like~, the way scarab luvvs shit
mircea_popescu: hopefully it's deployed as a ruby gem via kubinetes.
asciilifeform: ( tho i cannot rule out hypothesis that it lives in same place as apollo rocket, i.e. /dev/null, was lost )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: afaik amberglint is the 1st digger to actually share , normally bolix folx avoid asciilifeform like the plague, as detailed in old thrds, for whatever psychopathological reasons
asciilifeform: it's almost as if the gnomes from norse mythology are real
asciilifeform: ( for non-bolixologists in the audience : 'ns' was the spiffy vlsi tool they used to bake their ic's, logic was specified as a lisp proggy of sorts and compiled into an item that could be taken to vlsi plant )
mircea_popescu: and i have seen a tyre depot, which for my purposes here counts as "bag of legs"
a111: Logged on 2018-10-15 15:44 asciilifeform: in unrelated noose, mod6 et al : loox like trb doesn't remove banned peers from its addr table ! i.e. offers their addrs up to others, as if they were proper noades!! i never noticed this previously, it had to wait to be found empirically. really oughta be fixed, and pretty simple patch.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the mmap thing is major labour-saving item, lets you fughet about db etc, you define the data structure you want and it gets persisted to disk / loaded as-needed into ram, transparently to proggy
asciilifeform: ( bonus, it has no .c component, builds strictly gnatistically , tho it imports several unixisms as funct calls )
mircea_popescu: i was thinking, has major chances of being pulled as a patch into eulora-something.
mircea_popescu: "I packed the above code as a .vpatch on top of the previous genesis .vpatch mainly for keeping my original promise of showing this being built as it is with detours and corrections on the way. Otherwise this could equally well be a genesis in itself given how radically it changes pretty much everything in there. Nevertheless, at least for now - meaning until a final version is achieved and a regrind makes perhaps sense - I'l
asciilifeform: problem is getting nonchinese cells, just as with others
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: same as any other, theoretically if you have battery welder and cells, can rebuild
asciilifeform prolly will pick up a spare or 2, so as not to end up with 'rms longsoon' irreplaceable artifact
asciilifeform: sadly the box it ended up going in, is nuffin to write home about ( slightly slower than the goldstandard x60, and smaller, and sad kbd ) but it worx as described
mircea_popescu: "does this dildo work on blondes as well as brunettes ?" "well... it works on redheads best, but it'll do the oooh-aaah job for anyone."
mircea_popescu: the issue with priesthood is that it offers perpetual masturbatory toys for the non-smart irrespective of their "intelligence" as irrespective of their height.
mircea_popescu: but as a factual matter, are.
asciilifeform: as i understand, it's a temple, they had'em in 3000 bc just the same, heathens pray to their peculiar gods
mircea_popescu: dumb as fucking rocks also, and i would like to introduce mission street in sf into the record as exhibit fucktards.
mircea_popescu: there ~certainly~ exists such a thing as "ability to see through bells and whistles", uniting with a strong red thread the 1800s definition of a man ( http://trilema.com/2013/a-very-unfair-perspective/#selection-31.205-31.374 ) and the 2000s definition of a man ( as say http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-19#1826859 ). ☝︎
mircea_popescu: Mocky i actually distinguish between smarts (the reductive ability, that powers "i suspect there's no such thing as intelligence", and typified perhaps best by d. kyon) and "intelligence" (the constructive ability, that powers "more loc, more tech, more future", and typified perhaps best by "fm-2030" ). ☟︎
Mocky: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-18#1863546 >> if this is true then "you're not smart enough be here" is as meaningful as "not telepathic enough" ☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: same model as strength, agility. tho. where is strength before subj is asked to lift the weight.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: near as i could tell, d00d had plenty of native intelligence. but grew up in the circus, and so knows nuffin but idjit acrobatics.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform which i count as a great benefit.
asciilifeform: aha, gets buckets of printolade and dresses up as 'income', like other usg.tbtf.corps.*
mircea_popescu: 100% of that entirely fictitious pile is built out of a generalized belief that there is such a thing as "adwords" and it does exchange money, and well... that guy was the early (and really, only) winner of that lottery market.
mircea_popescu: buncha fucken turtles. but the problem is, as ~100% of the population is coming to town from the first time, well... ~THE TOWN~ ends up consisting of what first time towners think the town's like.
mircea_popescu: apparently there's nothing quite as destructive of the human mind than insistently inculcated & socialized conviction that "there's a lot out there". i liveblogged how this fucked up argentina, ( http://btcbase.org/log/2016-03-31#1442615 will have to do, i can't find the original discussion with the local dork now) and well... ☝︎
asciilifeform: ( 'played role to the end! growled as he expired! posthumous award of order-of-lenin!' )
mircea_popescu: i would guess about 60% or so of 2?F "sub" girlies exist on fetlife only as the fruit of the overactive imagination of a beta "M" somewhere.
mircea_popescu: i have nfi what you're talking about. as far as i know ~all white kids are vaccinated around 1 year and then right before kindergarten ; and have since about 1920.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-17#1863359 << bureaucracy tryna be as cool as mob. traditional way for the dicklets to hang themselves. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: And it is clear fiatists fear drugs as a more real currency than their own offering.
BingoBoingo: Anyways, Canada only allows 4 plants as opposed to every where else's 6 plants or 6 mature plants. With 4 plants a Candian could havest anywhere from 40 grams to 20 kilograms dry weight.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-16#1863300 << i think he now also counts as african-american. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: Mocky: That sounds rather healthy. My face and ears have taken to the color red as a seemingly permanent part of their color palette
asciilifeform: back when i wrote in c, i also serialized/deserialized 'just once', when casting packet to the correct struct, but to precisely nail down the latter required gcc-specific pragmas, as c per se does not give this ability. but in ada the required knobs are standard.
asciilifeform: kinda like cl's 'binary-types' thing, but as part of the language, rather than add-on hackolade
asciilifeform: of all the various items asciilifeform has used over the yrs, ada ( and not even 'modern', but even back in ada-83 ) has the absolute sanest support for strict record layout that actually worx as described
asciilifeform: ( some components -- 'manually', as shitoshi used wildly variable sizes; some -- cleanly )
asciilifeform: the fs as we know it is a classic example of 'plugging funnel at wrong end'.

"files" as in ~the fucking thing REFERENCED~ in the "file"system names aren't even first class abstractions! the drive's a BYTE device! there's no fucking files ANYWHERE except in the imagination.
mircea_popescu: in any case there's no such thing as a filename anywhere at all, it's not even 2nd class, it's a sort of indian.

bvt: i have already reworked the code based on the following code from GNAT: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/xjjec/?raw=true (g-locfil.adb, lockfile implementation). i.e. System.Address of an aliased String as argument to C function.

lobbes: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-15#1862788 << this is a good idea for a feature. Once I get logbot-voicing figured out I'm thinking of setting up a general purpose 'miscbot' for such things as the later-tell and the duckduckgo search. I'll try and work this into the later-tell feature ☝︎
BingoBoingo: Congratulations nicoleci on your first Qntra comment! http://qntra.net/2018/10/pantsuit-media-slanders-kim-kardashians-husband-as-an-incel/#comment-119443
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: observe that a TB of ecc ram costs approx same as tb of quality ssd.
mircea_popescu: this all leaves us stranged with such questions as "what is a file" and "what should a filesystem evben be".
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-15#1863091 << at present i believe the ~entire file model~ in unix might have been subtly broken since the very beginning, and that breakage has in turn informed the way people think about the fs/os interface so as to not notice it. because it's as you see, a widening breach, what started with atomic creation moved on to permissions, and in general... in a word, it's not directly evident unix ha ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-15#1863069 << seems likelty one of those right wing "pay low tax get economy going" things. sometimes they're used as bait and switch by govt. ☝︎
asciilifeform: uses a framework such as Gtk+ or Qt or any of the module-based APIs such as NSS, PAM, ... forget about about POSIX locking. If you care about portability, don't use file locking.' etc
asciilifeform: '...If you want to lock a file in $HOME, forget about it as $HOME might be NFS and locks generally are not reliable there. The same applies to every other file system that might be shared across the network. If the file you want to lock is accessible to more than your own user (i.e. an access mode > 0700), forget about locking, it would allow others to block your application indefinitely.

bvt: that's what I think as well
asciilifeform: always pictured it as a usa thing, where they have extensive structure for beating the money out of idjits who default
asciilifeform: twist : ( at least in usa ) they demand that the car be no older than 3y. and given as typical cabbie is not particularly creditworthy, they give the chump '0% until missed payment' loans to buy'em
mircea_popescu: and in the orclands, its utility is 100% as a dating site, "hey girly [working for "corporation" aka call center, nursing batshit insane delusions as to how you're a sorta hilary and anyone gives a shit about what yo ufished out of your belly button] : would you rather walk, or would you rather save and occasionally ask for a hot young boy who owns his own car take a half hour look at you ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform as far as i know, item exists 100% as orcistan theft, because the local morons will pay the usg corp a chunk of their local income.
mircea_popescu: just, they don't pay it via WU, as per http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-12#1861440 item. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-10-08 17:21 mircea_popescu: as i say -- the young hussies already are looking for slavery and abjection, in contrast to their stupid mulas and stramulas. from rotherham to anytown, usa, the 15 yo is saying "please, beat, rape and light me on fire -- anything whatsoever but having to talk with my kinmorons."
a111: Logged on 2016-07-11 12:11 mircea_popescu: hilary should really be a very informative example for all teenaged girls today : NOTHING slavery inflicts upon you is quite as bad as what "being a successful" mainstream derp does to you.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform most kids go by color as the only indication. the more advanced also look for lettering.
asciilifeform: seems excessive, tho, why would anyone want it as expensive sleeping pill.
mircea_popescu: of plant matter as opposed to some distillate.
mircea_popescu: "As they succeeded, the cool is gone" << so fucking true!
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo there's no such thing as "propogation"!
asciilifeform: as eventual replacement for 'portage' aha
a111: Logged on 2018-02-14 14:22 mircea_popescu: MEANWHILE, however, they have 100% unaccounted for the time externality. so basically it's a contest consisting of a guy without legs going about finding fault with people's fingers. because he's decided "legs don't count", and so as he has much better hands than the rest of those losers he should be captain of the football team.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform precisely my poiont. yet again as always & forever, the http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-14#1783773 of http://trilema.com/2018/democracy-sucks-the-two-thousand-four-hundred-and-change-years-old-version/ at work. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: (and the experienced historians among the "anyone" guessing will point to -- HIDDEN EXTERNALITY!!! as fucking always! they hijacked their conversation channels to repeat over and over AND OVER again "if you want it -- write it", ie, "the cost of portability, as the backflow of using stupid hardware, is hidden under the rug tee heee")
mircea_popescu: because yes, there very much is such a thing as a bar for civilisation, or at the very least for conversation. ~could~ talk to anyone, much like ~could~ very much shit outdoors ; but one strangely enough discovers in a short time that... doesn't really want to.
mircea_popescu: i suppose they do create some obligation, as per ye olde "if you can -- you must", in the sense that much like girl can't imagien why she'd mate with dood who doesn't use soap, i can't imagine why i'd talk to dood who "has ideas" or w/e they call being filthy outside the walls.
mircea_popescu: could live as patch on ave1 's patch lel

diana_coman: slycordinator, you prolly need to look at cuntoo as well then
slycordinator: currently, I've been using an old laptop for the purpose as-needed but I need to replace it with something

mircea_popescu: eg, branching the eucrypt tree over embeds/mainstream is (possibly ?) sustainable ; whereas branching it over "joe needs a project to direct to justify his employment with shithat" is exactly as sustainable as post-2018 linux.
