dub: anyway, you can'
t put a price on education, Diablo-D3 is no scammer
decimation: I was sad when I found you couldn'
t just edit in text, you need to use the 'colorforth' gui tool
TomServo: decimation: Hey cool thanks, didn'
t know about that one.
thestringpuller: you mean the phone's hardware can'
t keep up with the updates?
ben_vulpes: apple's done a decent job on the software jailing, so the phone operating system doesn'
t rot quite as quickly as its counterparts, so they're forced to release new "operating systems" that consume ever more resources.
Diablo-D3: even if you restore a backup from icloud, it doesn'
t restore your photos into your local photo storage
cazalla: i don'
t have one but i will make one for this soon enough
dignork: i had to look it up, because I couldn'
t beleive they continue to market it as something that makes sense

t more popular *rimshot*

t know how to server, guise" "PaaS" Heroku)
mircea_popescu: so nobody is complaining. like, i can hire someone for 2k a month because they won'
t complain.
bounce: there's some outsourcing (and grumbling the work coming back is sub-par) and some grumbling about "jobs lost" and such. but the spacex thing is relatively recent, and I haven'
t really noticed much drive to cut the costs of the various wars being waged, for example. it's just... lower taxes, spend more, run up a bigger debt bill.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no need for rockets. you don'
t kill cockroaches with a .5
mircea_popescu: bounce right, "<mircea_popescu> it doesn'
t cost THEM fifty trillion to try and fail to build a new airplane."
mircea_popescu: yes well, people don'
t undergo centuriesd of expense to fulfil a cartoon dream.
mircea_popescu: bounce perhaps not very creative, yes. perhaps that may matter. if it will, it won'
t be this century.
mircea_popescu: china's parents woudn'
t approve, and moreover china doesn'
t want to be either stupid or in possesison of a car wreckage.
mats_cd03: you perceive the flow isn'
t imperceptibly happening in the other direction, too
mircea_popescu: it doesn'
t cost THEM fifty trillion to try and fail to build a new airplane.
mircea_popescu: and certainly the chinese have "problems" they never heard of. similarly to how putin "doesn'
t understand how reality works".
mircea_popescu: so you know, arab women are unhappy because they don'
t live in the downtown on foodstamps, which has to be better than what they got because what else is the speaker doing there ?!
mircea_popescu: china is traditionally a sort of dog vomit (the fungus). it doesn'
t really war.
mircea_popescu: "Programmers have indeed created a universe where "science doesn'
t work." Learning where the permanent bugs and workarounds are inside a phonebook-length API teaches you nothing. It is anti-knowledge. Where your mind could have instead held something lastingly useful or truly beautiful, there is now garbage."
RPrpRP: mircea_popescu, won'
t attack you again if you don'
t post this attack's logs
RPrpRP: i don'
t think trilema is "unaffected"
Vexual: one can'

t cover the janitor/babysitter roles in the Army of One commercials.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu> bounce it gets complicated, obviously. tbh i don'
t have atm an opinion on the libre thing << My read. Watch the chopping for a year or two and see what happens.
TheNewDeal: wasn'
t the last conference like 5 btc entry?
bounce: ultimately the APIs it offers need to go since they're badly designed and tricky to use correctly. but you can'
t exactly do that for a drop-in replacement. this is a low-hanging fruit approach. though the new crew is IMO a better deal than throwing money at the guys that made such a mess of it, as google et al did.
mircea_popescu: bounce it gets complicated, obviously. tbh i don'
t have atm an opinion on the libre thing
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> bounce: search channel logs re: at least three separate discussions of how this came to be << you know, giving terms like "xilinx" is better than an empty search entreaty. he doesn'
t know what to search for.
mircea_popescu: * bounce didn'
t catch on to hiding behind lame excuses with the openssl folks, but if so that ought to be enough to get the s/w booted entirely, not just revamped. << it is.
mircea_popescu: bounce isn'
t it incredible how readily a circlejerk is formed
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform mind that heuristics don'
t work well when lustration lists are involved.
mircea_popescu: <decimation> asciilifeform: yeah that appears to be the situation. I don'
t understand how a gui desktop 'requires' a particular init system <<< join the conga line heh.
decimation: probably not, but they aren'
t even trying anymore
mats_cd03: they're comfy man, i don'
t know what to say
mats_cd03: worst part was... they were only crusty when they weren'
t being worn.
decimation: I guess I haven'
t used either of those
decimation: no, and I think that particular chip isn'
t available to regular humans
bounce: printable electronics getting closer, should be an interestin proof-of-concept though I wouldn'
t expect to even get full mipsen out of it.
bounce: tangentially, shouldn'
t it be feasible to get decent performance out of a suitably open-and-accessible-microcode cpu running on some fpga or other these days?
bounce didn'
t catch on to hiding behind lame excuses with the openssl folks, but if so that ought to be enough to get the s/w booted entirely, not just revamped.
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah that appears to be the situation. I don'

bounce: didn'
t that stalking astronaut get caught with diapers due to long drive?
BingoBoingo: "Authorities speculate that Frein, driving with his lights off on Pennsylvania Route 402, failed to see a
T-junction and drove into the swamp, then may have traveled 15 to 20 miles on foot to Canadensis, Pennsylvania, where his parents live." << Lesson here
bounce: guy wasn'
t looking where he walked and so walked right by the security checkpoints. obvious answer? evacuate the whole airport.
bounce: that doesn'
t feel quite right
bounce: oh I don'
t mind them going the way of the dodo. the thing was rather moriarty was rationalising their existence as "best possible (evar)", which I disagreed with
bounce: hmno, I don'
t think rigging the system is a good long-term strategy. it shouldn'
t be necessary, and if you think it is, you're venturing into empire territory.
xmj: some fucktard I ignore and haven'
t dealt with gave me a -1 rating
mircea_popescu: but that doesn'
t make them anything other than styles.
mircea_popescu: bounce well, they won'
t go anywhere for as long as the system that spawned them lasts.
mircea_popescu: decimation: I don'
t get the jews. why do they care about jews? They are just a small subset of europeans among the unwashed masses of europeans <<< you should learn yidish to see the things some jews think about some other jews.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: a professional scammer not scamming usg also, would be like a pro mechanic who won'
t fix own car << these words.
mircea_popescu: you both can'
t be sovereign, so you got yourselves a problem now.
ben_vulpes: it's pathetic the things can'
t even open a beer.
mircea_popescu: but unlike the other fucktards involved, he didn'
t go away into the night, and his efforts are at the root of why we even pose a problem to the usg today in the first place.
mircea_popescu: ou don'
t read trilema or any other venue where people who know more than you are likely to call you and your friends idiots.
mircea_popescu: MolokoDesk nah i don'
t think it's all that desirable. ideally no dependencies etc.
MolokoDesk: it hasn'
t appeared on the main blockchain yet.
punkman: MolokoDesk: why wasn'
t 17nXdzdWdrLP5nqMJxJGC7ANqWQkqL2G5N published?
MolokoDesk: yeah, I wasn'
t going to suggest any mods to gribble even if nanotube would do them because everyone else's stuff would stop working.
MolokoDesk: gribble bans anyone for 5 minutes if they make more than 12 requests in a 60 second interval. that probably happened while deedBot wasn'
t voice.
punkman: it didn'
t like the text before the sig
mircea_popescu: problem is you don'
t know the block height when you save the file, do you ?
dignork: mircea_popescu: some fido period reference, i didn'
t have a computer then
mircea_popescu: but don'
t mind me, by all means, please continue, advertise to the social media crowd, that's where the power is lmao.
mircea_popescu: dignork: they do have something commercial, but I did not look too close <<< then people wonder why there's a bubble. why hello sir, when people can'
t be bothered with even looking at the "products" their name is so bad, i suspek perhaps it may be the case there's going to be problems achieving cashflow. just a hunch.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: also lol, mircea_popescu getting his boxes off dhcp just today...? < no, actually, "you had one job" woman forgot to pay netbill, ended up plugging their wifi into one of my spares so they can has interwebs they don'
t deserve.
