mircea_popescu: if you didn'
t have that infrastructure, you might balk at buying it just for a hobby.
Mocky: maybe qataris have central air and only orc horde has room units, haven'
t been there yet

http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-21#1864601 >> there are some important things that are going to be brought to life by the republic and sure as shit they aren'
t gonna wait for Qatar to buy in. rather, if the outward appearance is correct and there are men of valor here who can recognize the opportunity then this will be their chance to play host to some business and profit exactly to the degree of their continued valor and foresight and not one riyal more
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not there. they don'
t even have moths, there.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I didn'
t ask why. The bearded fellow behind the counter who looked as though he could have been cast as an above average banana republic general in Hollywood promptly shut her up dispensed the product.
a111: Logged on 2018-10-20 20:20 Mocky: i also reached out to local bitcoin guy. turns out there are two. one sells other buys. I reached out the the seller but no response yet. The buyer doesn'
t have contact info listed and i don'
t have the bitcoin to answer his ad so haven'
t contacted yet.
mircea_popescu: well apparently i can'
t find it anymore, but anyway, ac unit 100% filled with styrofoam. was pretty rich.
Mocky: they say it's not concrete, that only exterior walls are concrete. but it looks and feels like concrete to me. i can'
t understand what they are calling it, "tabukla" ?
Mocky: in other observations, social pantsuits stand out like a sore thumb here. they can'
t stomach the "racism" "classism" "mistreatment" "conditions for local women". it's a constant irritant to them, they can'
t figure out how anyone here sleeps at night being party to such things
mircea_popescu: the pantsuited hilarity herself both knew and said as much, their entire line during elections is "this pays better". and their constant fretful midging on their own "sikrit" comms was all about hiow "apparently people don'
t care being paid to be stupid nets them slightly more than what they could get on own not being stupid".
mircea_popescu: all the redditards are doing that WHILE AT WORK. if the govt didn'
t pay peons to blue, whod the fuck would ?
mircea_popescu: a different kind -- impersonal, they don'
t want to "Escape to there", but still.
mircea_popescu: you don'
t smell like "this guy i am". not yet at any rate, if ever at all.
Mocky: i don'
t know shit about bdsm
mircea_popescu: muttering "i saw some things man... i can'
t tell anyone the things i saw..."
Mocky: unlike london where I coudn'
t place any cars
Mocky: i'm not wise to the ways of watches, wouldn'
t recognize a rolex. "shiny watch" works for my description
mircea_popescu: bitch srsly need to tell time for some reason, because wherever they're going ain'
t gonna just wait till they get there anyway or what is it, no woman in a loose fitted top about to point out "hey, we should get going if we're ever going to make X" ?
a111: Logged on 2018-10-20 18:53 Mocky: asciilifeform, this I haven'
t heard, but flashy stuff like rolex, lambos, bentleys I have heard
mircea_popescu: we already have a process whereby i can create an acct ; in the future i just won'
t care to use it for joe random is all.
diana_coman: I don'
t really see a problem from eulora's pov with 22 secs for rsa encrypt - it's not for in-game server-client communications so...
diana_coman: yes, but preparing for that: wrappers in C for the methods so they don'
t export "mpi" shit but simply octets
mircea_popescu: but there's a lengthy and well documented history of white woman being so far removed from the whip and restraint, she will stubornly do the -ev dumbthing "because it doesn'
t matter anyway" "i have my own oppinions and experiences" etc.
a111: Logged on 2018-10-20 18:34 diana_coman: asciilifeform, I don'
t think so; I think they would pay *you* that 500k if you manage to convince them that you are worth that for them
PeterL:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-22#1864612 << you may laugh, but at work we have a database access thingy that we have to use with Internet Explorer, because it doesn'
t work right when using other programs (the thing is a Microshit product)
☝︎ jurov: which caused mild confusion as i don'
t have so much on the acct and deedbot said nothing
Mocky:

☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: because html5 was done by morons (ie, "community" in pantsuit style) and it couldn'
t be later or more useless (cue here, how opengl managed to LOSE its having defeated directx, a decade later)
a111: Logged on 2018-10-20 18:04 billymg: is there perhaps a list of "definitely don'
t use [feature], will never load for republicans"
BingoBoingo: <diana_coman> BingoBoingo, don'
t they sell just pills to swallow? << They do sell them, but at the moment with their size... they don'
t go down without fighting the surrounding environment
diana_coman: but AC there is rather basic requirement, isn'
t it
Mocky: yeah, but not a big deal for me. I wouldn'
t want to be a landlord here tho
diana_coman: BingoBoingo, don'
t they sell just pills to swallow?
Mocky: BingoBoingo, isn'
t bubble gum flavor just as gross?
Mocky: word was that they may be angry if they feel forced to pay for an intangible, but that will fade and you don'
t lose respect. but get caught in a lie and they are done with you
Mocky: also huge fine if you stop past the "stop line". If you go over camera starts recording, tiny light flashes. if you reverse back to proper spot and wave your hand out the window showing submission at the camera, you don'
t get a ticket!
Mocky: i also reached out to local bitcoin guy. turns out there are two. one sells other buys. I reached out the the seller but no response yet. The buyer doesn'
t have contact info listed and i don'
t have the bitcoin to answer his ad so haven'
t contacted yet.
☟︎ Mocky: if there is more beyond that, i haven'
t dug deep enough to find it
Mocky: asciilifeform, this I haven'
t heard, but flashy stuff like rolex, lambos, bentleys I have heard
☟︎ Mocky: and don'
t want to have to put sweat into it either
Mocky: Word is that they want to make a profit, but don'
t want to have to put money into it. and they want the profit now. but don'
t think it thru, maybe can be convinced easily
Mocky: like both don'
t think and won'
t listen
diana_coman: so "impulsiveness" would be "don'
t think it through"? or "won'
t listen/care about more than 2 steps ahead"?
Mocky: and this wasn'
t like just one school. was city wide "make every teacher do x" after 900 parent complaints "stop doing x"
diana_coman: but they won'
t pay rando "expert" that, no
Mocky: isn'
t necessarily bad, but bad that they waited till 3 months in to even think about it. In the case of the shelter, it was a charity, never meant to make a profit. but still "dun wanna pay anymore"
diana_coman: asciilifeform, I don'
t think so; I think they would pay *you* that 500k if you manage to convince them that you are worth that for them
☟︎ Mocky: also seems to go hand in hand with their impulsiveness. 3 different people described this exact scenario. Qatari goes opens a business with someone (one freelance vet service, one animal rescue shelter, one doggy day care) 3 months later decides, "I didn'
t realize I was going to have to keep paying so much every month (payroll, rent, etc.) where's the profit?" "it may take a year to become profitable, it's only been 3 months" "I'm not paying anymore." which
Mocky: i've haven'
t seen personally, so all i can do is report for now
diana_coman: more of "wouldn'
t pay if I don'
t need it" and they might not need the shitinsurance
diana_coman: hm, re insurance I'm not sure it is evidence of "wouldn'
t pay if not tangible"
Mocky: impression i got was totalcostofownership can'
t compete with how they feel about it in their gut
Mocky: They have a very poor appreciation for intangibles. They want to get something they can hold in their hand when they spend money. If it's something they can'
t see, they balk at paying for it. And if they do pay for it, it'll bother them to no end. One example was dude decided he wanted a car, ordered a brand new, fully customized Bentley. 350k USD. Wouldn'
t go pick it up when it arrived because balked at having to pay 900 USD /month for insurance. not
diana_coman: ah, I don'
t quite distinguish between them really
billymg: is there perhaps a list of "definitely don'
t use [feature], will never load for republicans"
☟︎ phf: Mocky: oh yeah i didn'
t mean to imply that in qatar specifically it's only foreigners term, seems like the words used are entirely regional, e.g. egyptians call it shisha also. i've smoked too much hookah, so i like to know the whole set, so that i can effectively communicate with the locals :)
phf: diff's block reader doesn'
t necessarily attempt to keep the blocks small, allocates a 39098690 buffer, which crosses the boundary and immediatelly hits the part you've already pointed out: x8 bitstream allocator
Mocky: i met others as well, europeans, americans, canadians but they didn'
t know about biz or qataris enough to contribute to the convo
Mocky: an older american lady who works in a qatari house and has authority over the financial dealings of the sons with business degrees from uni and because of the status of the father (her boss) there are other lower station qataris that she doesn'
t need to listen to
Mocky: yes, actually, but they don'
t call it hookah here, they call it shisha. but that wasn'
t today and no humans in sight
phf: i also don'
t think it's a stack allocation issue, ksum against the file works, and the integration between c diff and keccak was designed with chunk reading in mind
Mocky: my AC compressor on the roof had a problem. now these clowns didn'
t fix it but did manage to break the indoor fan and circuit board as well. and i gotta get up in 6 hours for this meet and greet. gonna be a sweaty night
BingoBoingo might have to do some reading/lamenting there isn'
t an 11.6" version
a111: Logged on 2018-10-19 17:19 mircea_popescu: Mocky what's the half you don'
t know ?
Mocky:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-19#1864270 >> I don'
t have everything sorted in my mind. I don'
t know yet what they need or perceive that they need. or how to position myself with respect to the microsoft/cisco/cornell they have respect so much.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: and don'
t be ashamed/shy away from saying things like "i'm a representative of the most serene republic of bitcoin, we're looking to build etc".
BingoBoingo: Mocky: One encouraging thing you have in Qatar that you don'
t in Uruguay is evidence these people have money somewhere, hence buying S-400's from Russia
Mocky: here, civilized person can'
t walk more than 3 blocks outside during midday. would be drenched in sweat. likewise can'
t stand for 15 minutes waiting for bus. it's get into a car with AC or smell like the riff raff
BingoBoingo: I am sure there would be a lot less cars in Uruguay if motherfuckers weren'
t spending all day doing the Uber to pay for their cars
Mocky: fwiw, i quite like it. all comers don'
t need to look in my windows and knock on my door
a111: Logged on 2018-10-19 09:49 Mocky: next to bottom class is cheap workers who aren'
t permitted to get a drivers license:
http://archive.is/Cg7uU mircea_popescu: isn'
t speciation an incredible fucking phenomenon ? how can such divides naturally occur ?
