mircea_popescu: basically
they're really really dedicated
to dying in a bloc.
ben_vulpes: because it's not fentanyl, it's just-enough-different
to escape prosecution in
the orient and kill people in ameristan
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: nah, even worse/dumber. importing
the fentanyl and mixing it poorly into
things
that look like heroin for street-resale
ben_vulpes: and even
that largely subsumed by .cn mailorder
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu:
the pot dealer is even an extinct species
these days; gotta go buy fentanyl
to make friends now
Mocky: my experience, quite limited, was
that ~only people dealing pot are pot heads who don't end making a dime
mircea_popescu: then you learn
the much more important lesson
that a car's worth of condom's worth
the whole hruscheba, plus
that hottie on 2F.
mircea_popescu: the same guy selling you pot, in a working world, will sell your car for you / introduce you
to
the people in austriturkey
to buy condoms from and so on.
mircea_popescu: the whole fucking point of even having a black market economy is
to destroy
the system, hence all
the o'brien comments on
trilema.
mircea_popescu: here's
the pro
tip : everyone who made money in
the 90s did so because of
their "pot dealer" connections.
mircea_popescu: but i mean...
the ~only utility of even buying pot is getting
to know
the dealer.
mircea_popescu: though when it comes
to b), i suppose i should admit
the girls keep getting offered roaches and
tokes alllll
the
time. whole crowd whose only mode of socialisation seems
to be, sharing mate uh i mean, pot-e.
mircea_popescu: you know,
the
total btc value i spent on pot
the past decade is 0.00. because a) who
the fuck buys pot for internet funbux, just... why! and b).
a111: Logged on 2018-06-20 15:41 FundsAreSafuh:
The
thrill of buying 60 BTC, and spending it all on cannabis.
The exhilaration of learning PGP for
the first
time.
The realization
that FeedZeBirds was a scam.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-20 15:20 FundsAreSafuh:
the pursuit of knowledge, and an adoration for
the great Mircea Popescu
mircea_popescu: rewatched
http://trilema.com/2011/margin-call/ last nite ; hanbot was all "wtf is with
these idiots,
tax man
takes 50% right off
the
top, and
that's it ? no comment, not even a groan, not even 'how about you pay me
the real amt you pay me rather
than pretend double' zero ??"
☟︎ mircea_popescu: because it seems like 100% of
the new world jews will.
mircea_popescu: i wonder what percentage of
the old world jews actuallty went
to
the lime pit while managing imaginary financial empires
the whole
time.
mircea_popescu: zombie herd knows no such
thing, on
the long run. bridges over barbed water!

the closest we got
to a replacement i believe was asciilifeform's shiva, i.e. a
tinyscheme embedded into
trb runtime. it was suggested as a useful exercise for novices
to attempt
to expose existing, useful rpc function using it, but
there were no
takers. at some point
the idea of using shiva in prod also went away, because
tinyscheme is not necessarily production ready (primarily because of C-ism issues). as
a111: Logged on 2018-06-20 16:15 mircea_popescu: in other-same lulz, usg amping up
the "upgrading" of "secure"
http sites off
the interwebs.
trinque: when I've grunted out
the cuntoo
thing, next item in
the pipeline is
the hot wallet
mircea_popescu: but no, it's not like it's verboten
to stand up a
trb, god forbid.
mircea_popescu: Mocky so flush
them via whatever, iirc blockchain.info sent correct ammt.
Mocky: ok well,
thanks. hopefully
that doesn't curse me. but also i "have" "bitcoin" in various dark markets
that i want
to actually own and I don't
trust
them
to send accurate decimal
to
trinque's walletron
☟︎ mircea_popescu: (i hope we all now admire
the wisdom of
trinque, for having closed
this hole for me lo
these many years ago.)
Mocky: tru but how am
to even have money without a wallet?
mircea_popescu: if you just run by whatever shines you'll get overwhelmed and
then depressed at how
the sand sucks effort with no visible return.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: yo Mocky , do
the botting bs. i was going
to
tell you when
to v it, and everything. not like you're alone here you know.
mircea_popescu: btw, everyone notice how every year by now
there's one of
these shockingly promising young squirts ? just,
they keep coming earlier and earlier in
the year.
Mocky: dun help
til you know you need
to search for it!
Mocky: blockchain's not gonna fit on
this 250gb ssd is it. fuck
mircea_popescu: and you know what else went with it ? she can barely come. because yes,
the cns is plasticine, but no it's not free plasticine.
mircea_popescu: i personally know a slut
that lost
the ability of being beaten for fun,
through
the mediation of her ducati and so many knee and hip surgeries she's immune
to playpain.
Mocky: i a car
the road can be full, on a bike you can still fit in
there
Mocky: mircea_popescu, wooshing across 4 lanes in sub second is my kind of fun, I do
this ~daily on motorcycle
mircea_popescu: but
this reminds me, saw somewhere nice aquafort of 1918 major road here,
then a river, beign crossed by bare legged girlies on oxcarts.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> but yes,
this is how empires die. "yes we're aware
this would sail right off if driven
through in 3 feet of water, but
the car's not rated for driving
through 3 feet of water so it's ok." "right, but
then
the ramp
that's not rated for flooding will flood, because etcetera in
this vein, and
there you are." << AHA,
this happened
to
the plasticar
mircea_popescu: their little
toyota and
toyota-like shits (which is 99% of mkt here) simply drown in half
that.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform are you kidding me ? i found out later from workers we were
the only ones
to cross
there.
mircea_popescu: the correct fucking solution, nevermind billiard whatever, is
to not have floodable highway ramps. which is
the largest chapter in highway ramp engineering book. not even kidding.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform driving
through water is a major engineering problem
though. unless specifically amphibian landing vehicle, ytou won't get it.
Mocky: what, rear wheels steer
too?
mircea_popescu: you can switch from driving leftmost lane
this way
to rightmost lane
that way or rightmost lane
this way
to leftmost lane
that way on a 4 lane road at ~100kmph in sub a second. just goes wooooosh.
mircea_popescu: probably ; but honestly i very much like
this
thing's
turn. it specifically does 1-lane-over
turning. very evidently was designed specifically for it.
phf: of right now new methods
that people write are exposed
through
the old RPC still
a111: Logged on 2018-06-21 14:07 Mocky: I'm confused about
trb rpc. Log search suggests for
the first year+ of bitcoin foundation rpc was marked for death:
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-02-28#1417175 but
then
there's dump / eat block based on rpc? Is
this a new version of rpc, I don't see a new version announced on
the mailing list. Can someone sum
this up for me, I'm having
trouble following
the history.

mircea_popescu: nah, it rests on a larger plastic plate, which is plastic-fastened
to
the whole bumper assemblage.
mircea_popescu: anyway, point being, as girl was dialing
the miracle worker for me, i was saying
to her, "tomorrow you call
the lawyer, apparently he's getting me new plates."
mircea_popescu: well, it does
take like 8 liters of engine oil... but it's just a bmw.
mircea_popescu: nevertheles... not something you'd rely on, even if you had miracle-working groundskeepers at your beak and call.
the correct approach is
to NOT HAVE FLOODABLE HIGHWAY RAMPS OMFG
mircea_popescu: so i called
teh empleado, sent him
to fish my plate somehow, an hour later, when i finally noticed coming out of whorehouse.
mircea_popescu: in pleasantly surprised : yesterday driving
through flood (it rained here like
the end of hte world, 15cm+) car lost...
the front fucking plate on a highway ramp, when water came as high as
the windows.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the above named promises
to be, very much so.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-21 12:45 asciilifeform: of
the mentioned libs, zlib is known
to me
to work under musltronic build; libmysqlclient i had not occasion
to
test
a111: Logged on 2018-06-21 12:37 asciilifeform: i solved
this same problem for
trb -- i.e. building 100% musltronic proggy with '9000' deps , on a conventional box
Mocky: asciilifeform, re: rejects
traditional concept of merge,
to my eye
this looks like 5 merges. are
these non-traditional?
