shinohai: i mean, no invite really needed just curl lol
BingoBoingo: But yeah you're the only person to use it and then thestringpuller gets an invite before I do?
shinohai: did you tell me you didn't like that pastebin and I forgot ?
pete_dushenski: in other news no one here can use, i'm brokering a rather minty 1991 porsche 964/911 carrera 4 coupe manual if anyone's in the air-cooled market.
pete_dushenski: i'm halfway considering 'fat tire' cycle even
ben_vulpes: i mean raingear's a thing
ben_vulpes: i did not envision living in a neighborhood without sidewalks.
ben_vulpes: and by dedicated i mean physically segregated and no stopping.
ben_vulpes: i saw a few vancouver rentals this weekend
ben_vulpes: i moved out of the city!
pete_dushenski: i've been looking high and low for a decent house rental
pete_dushenski: i'm content with a few hot meals a week, the rest, i scavenge. makes the hot meals all the better.
ben_vulpes: i have a live in chef for food, and my own two hands for servers.
ben_vulpes: i mean yeah, it's a microwave, to continue the cooking metaphor.
pete_dushenski: i've had no issues with cpanel in the past, nor is 'cpanel doesn't unglue without reformatting' a cause to abandon it in my book
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: i'm still not sure i see the angle but it's probably fair to blame my own ignorance on the subject
ben_vulpes: "nah it's fine, i'll just have the shit-cooking kitchen *over there*"

pete_dushenski: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-20#1506883 << cheers. i'll let you know if i come up with any more questions about cock.li ☝︎
pete_dushenski: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-20#1506866 << i guess i don't subscribe to the theory of server scarcity. at least not any more than the theory of global food scarcity. if server only does one thing for one man, so be it. ☝︎
danielpbarron: and in other channels news >> Clash> I spoof my phone's location to manipulate Pokemon Go. << nifty idea huh? I don't know the game well enough but it sounds like someone could rile up a lot of feathers if they took this concept to the extreme
mircea_popescu: if i ran a culture of cinema phd programme i'd spend a few hours with that thing.
mircea_popescu: fetishism, you understand me ? "i like this book because of the way capital letters are drawn at beginning of paragraph"
asciilifeform: i liked the stakes.
mircea_popescu: i suppose "rzeczpospolita" may substitute for the perverse ?
asciilifeform: i'm not actually sure who it was for. i liked because - weird enough.
mircea_popescu: i mean it's vignettes of no internal sense, designed to appeal to the emotional brain of middle aged women, strewn together by no glue other than the happenstance of having been so presented.
mircea_popescu: i managed to crawl up to the part where the weird woman reads auspices in water wheel.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i suspect it might have just been re-cut for convenience ?
mircea_popescu: ugh. i guess ima go look now.
mircea_popescu: yeah. well i only managed to get through ~1.5
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: did you even see same thing i saw ?
a111: Logged on 2016-07-18 00:43 asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu re: http://trilema.com/2016/sobieski-si-romanii , didja ever see mega-film 'ogniem i mieczem' ?
mircea_popescu: oh and speaking of http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-18#1504500 : so i was scammed into watching A TV SHOW. not substantially different from "pride and prejudice"/random televisa production. lotta spurious "interpersonal relations" shots without much logic interspersed with meaningless "warfare" shots without much logic. ☝︎
thestringpuller: so i copy a raw http request from soapui, i put it into the raw section of postman
thestringpuller: i have a puzzle for http developers
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-19#1506525 << it's not fiction, the facts are sourced, the interpretation that bey puts on them is his own though and i feel like he often stretches it to keep the narrative consistent with the "utopias" part of his premise ☝︎
phf: i haven't seen one of those since russia though. or maybe i brought it with my old computer, but strange i probably would've kept it.
phf: i think i might've had a cyrillic keyboard at some point. fwiw they are usually dual labeled, e.g. on Q you're also going to have a smaller Й somewhere on the side
mircea_popescu: it's also a large part of why i even bother with trilema, otherwise i could just put up a page consisting of http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/penis.jpg
asciilifeform: i've experimented with playing protein structures, yes, through sound card.
asciilifeform: 'the data' is not strictly defined, nor the instrument with which to look productively - raster display, or teletype, or play it through the sound card (i sometimes do...)
mircea_popescu: what i said was that a) ultimately all data is in point of fact data, and unless you're fucking around you will wish to look at the data ; b) that "Saving time" is only useful to people in a hurry ; and people thinking are seldomly in a hurry. rather than play with a desk weight while i try to comprehend x item, i might as well longhand its structure.
asciilifeform: i haven't even ~seen~ one since '92 or so
asciilifeform: PeterL: phf i think might have a genuine cyrillic kbd somewhere
asciilifeform: pretty sure i do.
asciilifeform: though... i might have a japanese one somewhere.
asciilifeform: overall i agree with 'folks dumbly copy, paste, dun think things through'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i am willing to state that the reason nobody discovered anything interesting since the 90s or so is because they haven't.
mircea_popescu: maybe i'm using that as a thinking support. which i usually am.
mircea_popescu: PeterL depends man. if i am involved in a process of trying to understand something, which may take many hours to many months, that i am saved five minutes for a typing out is not necessarily useful.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform fu you're not to speak for humans! PeterL sure, and most people only write html by clicking on buttons. but i like to type my shit out.
PeterL: I only use it by drawing the structure and having it generate the SMILES, which can be, E.G. pasted into another program
mircea_popescu: PeterL it's kinda what i was doing pedestrianly.
asciilifeform: PeterL: which i programmed for, every day, for years, long ago.
asciilifeform: PeterL: aha, i had this! in chemgroup's 'MOE'
mircea_popescu: but mind, i wasn't seriously proposing this be used ; just ad-hoc showing that it can be.
a111: Logged on 2016-07-20 14:34 mircea_popescu: i'm even amenable to saying ::oc/C-COH-C::
mircea_popescu: i'd rather use hoare - hor if forced to do something with it.
asciilifeform: i guess anglicization might be 'he-whore'
mircea_popescu: how do i humorously say "male whore" as in, "curv", which is the never-seen but PERFECTLY GRAMMATICAL masculine of curva, whore ?
mircea_popescu: anyway. fucking javascript of a language if i ever saw one, this english thing. how do you people live ?
mircea_popescu: part of the problem is obviously that english is a language spoken by idiots, and it shows. but this isn't a large part and certainly not the largest part - i was doing the same thing in romanian. arguably much worse - people don't realise romanian is ALSO mostly spoken by idiots.
mircea_popescu: trinque anyway, trilema is a foremost example of "i have my set of defintions and you likely don't know what they are ; nor will likely figure it out through a whole article - shit's too fine."
mircea_popescu: i think we're sitting on a poorly understood oilpatch.
trinque: mircea_popescu: I see it
asciilifeform: trinque: no redefinitions involved. i run'em. what's the problem.
trinque: nothing wrong with that; I was saying the same yesterday
a111: Logged on 2016-07-20 15:43 phf: so i push back on the guy, rme says "let's change subject", within minutes guy goes "it's late here i gotta go to sleep"
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: lulzy, even i have >1
a111: Logged on 2016-07-20 16:15 asciilifeform: hey i run virii
asciilifeform: i might not even be able to catalogue what else.
asciilifeform: incidentally i might not even ~know~ all of the assumptions which some luser somewhere might read into the text. mircea_popescu reminds me that most of'em probably think 'he has 1 computer, and 1 lan'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu has a point here, but i did consider 'run' to have been explained eons ago, when i publicly described my profession.
mircea_popescu: it's one thing to do this like i do it on trilema ; but it's another to do it in the face of contention.
asciilifeform: just like i take a shit, you should not assume that i did it in same room i sleep and eat in.
asciilifeform: neh simply forgot to explain that i 'redefined number 2'
asciilifeform: i suppose my assumption that ~everyone~ has distinct 'circles of hell' for running proggies, is baseless
mircea_popescu: hey, i'm not the one sprouting spurious absolutes, which is why i'm not the one with this problem. what picture.
asciilifeform: does it mean i eat chrorophos for breakfast ?
asciilifeform: picture i were to run a pesticide shop
a111: Logged on 2016-06-30 15:38 asciilifeform: trinque: fact remains, if you think i'm gonna run a binary, ANYONE's binary, for whatever reason, yer smoking dope.
asciilifeform: hey i run virii ☟︎
mircea_popescu: mr "oh i'll never run someone's binary give me my ida!"
asciilifeform: i have nfi what, then, is a niche.
trinque: runs great on wine too; I ran it there longer than on winderz
asciilifeform: i've historically kept crapple boxen around for various occasions (commercial proggies for which no substitute exists, etc)
mircea_popescu: i keep gurlz!
mircea_popescu: i still swear by winamp!
phf: i have friends who still swear by winamp
a111: Logged on 2016-07-20 15:43 asciilifeform: i dun get why more folks won't declare total war.
asciilifeform: aha, all i get is bash history
asciilifeform: the muppets who 'i Just Want just like itunes...' must be expelled from civilized computing.
asciilifeform: i've been using command-line players ever since.
phf: it's kind of funny that xmms got "replaced" with various itunes clones. i had at various points a very large partially pirated, partially salvaged, partially ripped collection of music and i'm convinced that there's nothing better than an fs level folder structure for managing music.
asciilifeform: decade ago - i could even see
asciilifeform: what does rme (who i know nothing of..) have to lose ?
asciilifeform: i dun get why more folks won't declare total war. ☟︎
phf: so i push back on the guy, rme says "let's change subject", within minutes guy goes "it's late here i gotta go to sleep" ☟︎☟︎
phf: i saw one of those operators in action yesterday, rme of clozure cl is doing "open office hours" on irc, and They come. "why are you using ccldoc instead of BIG PACKAGE NAME??? i want to change docs to BIG PACKAGE NAME for increased adoption" "why are there stale useless files? i want to remove them to improve maintainability" etc.
