asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-11#1518584 << the american derpmedia Official Truth is, best as i can discern, that a hack is not, as in actuality, a technological finesse, but a kind of window-smash vandalism ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-11#1518539 << 2aminopropane is water miscible ; amphetamine is very slightly soluble. moreover is competitively-soluble with all the sugar crap, so i'd be rather surprised if you can get 5g to stay unprecipitated in a bottle of off the shelf soda/juice/whatever. ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2016-08-11 18:55 asciilifeform: '"[Trump] is an enabler of Putin, former head of the KGB, and of course is leading all these hacks," Reid said. "It should be a message to America that you can't hold hands with Putin."'

asciilifeform: it would be quite fitting if the cartel caught a dea guy, tied him to a pole, and forced to drink whole barrel of whisky ☟︎

asciilifeform: who the hell would even want to smuggle <5g in a bottle, and why.

PeterL: who is going to claim a powder is apple juice? but yes, would not nescesarily all be dissolved

asciilifeform: (consider a bottle of powder, 0 fluid)

PeterL: LD50 about 50 mg/kg, only need 5 g for a 100 kg person, seems reasonable

BingoBoingo: Prolly a Hulk Hogan joke

BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Related In Gawker Media's final week before Ziff Davis takes over opened a "men's magazine" called "the cuck"

asciilifeform: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2016/08/11/i-yelled-back-a-few-expletives-racially-charged-trump-t-shirt-dispute-ends-in-attack << in other lulz for BingoBoingo .

asciilifeform: 'In January 2014, a teen crossing the US–Mexico border at the San Ysidro POE claimed the two bottles he carried were apple juice. Upon further questioning, the teen volunteered to drink from the bottles and died hours later from acute methamphetamine intoxication.'

asciilifeform: 'TBML' is a usgtronic term, 'trade-based money laundry'

asciilifeform: pt bitcoins. The merchandise can include phone and Internet minutes, tickets for events or travel, clothes, or luxury items. The merchandise is shipped to Colombia for resale as in a traditional TBML scheme...'

asciilifeform: 'The continued growth and acceptance of virtual currencies has contributed to increasing exploitation by criminals seeking to sell illegal drugs in the United States. Reporting indicates Colombian TCOs may be using Bitcoin as a tool to conduct TBML schemes between the United States and Colombia. TCOs purchase bitcoins in the United States with drug proceeds and then buy merchandise from the wide range of US-based businesses that acce

trinque: I just want to know who beat Harry's ass a while back.

asciilifeform: anyway mats that piece is a mega-snore, i went to a school just like that one, but on other side of the continent, they are common as dirt

mats: it's a Catholic prep school iirc so probably

asciilifeform: didn't ben_vulpes already have a blogotron ?

ben_vulpes: but have a mountain of shit to move, and it's not like it's a blocker in any regard

mats: http://www.businessinsider.com/the-dark-side-of-silicon-valley-according-to-a-teenager-who-grew-up-there-2016-8

asciilifeform: it is a handicap that is perhaps curable, but do i ~want~ it cured.

phf: originally i was trying to tame the complexity of all the auth/ghost/join blah by having a state machine, but it got unmanageable, so i unded up dropping back to same approach as in logbot

trinque: asciilifeform: isn't, but I can package it up later. I hand-applied phf's patch to a custom skin mangled from the "classic" skin.

phf: though a111 now looks pretty much the same, since i copy pasted a bunch of code

trinque: asciilifeform: phf contributed some code that was modified a bit and placed in ircbot

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-11#1518471 << this is mighty spiffy trinque. is this based on phf's gadget, or a new thing ? ☝︎

mircea_popescu: sort-of like an indian call center except the girls are naked and instead of chair there's a ~mat.

mircea_popescu: there just isn't a third road.

mircea_popescu: "How does the bitter black fungus keep out the tasty lactic bacteria ? Certainly not directly ; it's a terraforming process you see. Which is why you can't "just want to" : either you permit it or you don't permit it. There's no third option available."

thestringpuller: secretaries are so corporate. what you need is a chief of staff.

covertress: apologies again but, I have many logistics to rush towards completion prior to my travels. I do not have a secretary yet.

mircea_popescu: hey, you said you gotta run. i gather you aim to be a sort of project manager for some eth fork whatever - bear in mind that nobody ever respects the rushed. you want people to look up to you, never run.

a111: Logged on 2016-08-11 15:11 phf: i never grok why some of these javascript libraries don't just provide a demo console. "everything you need is loaded on this page, feel free to run your browser's dev console"

a111: Logged on 2016-08-11 14:53 asciilifeform: sooo i attempted test of https://protonmail.com/blog/openpgpjs-email-encryption as a suspected http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-04#1514630 , and discovered that it is plain and simple nonsense, won't import public keys at all! uses only pantomime of pgp

a111: Logged on 2016-08-11 14:37 trinque: I have a backlog of ~/src that'll get me through at least a coupla days :p

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-11#1518287 << yeah, get back to me after a year. which, here like in classical college education, is teh minimal qual. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: could be a white-sexual-supremacy group.

shinohai should make a white supremacy group and call it "Buenas Aryans"

asciilifeform: inflation was not a plague dropped down by martians, no.

mircea_popescu: also how france beat germany in 1800s : inflation was actually a useful governance tool.

mircea_popescu: let it be noted that in a deeply conservative (this means things other than you think - it mostly means stupid, lazy males), mostly rural society inflation is actually a good thing

mircea_popescu: ftr it was 5.5 in 2004. so this would be 250% inflation over a little more than a decade.

asciilifeform: 'Egypt’s central bank has closed 48 foreign exchange bureaus since the start of the year for trading at black market rates and other violations, banking sources said on Wednesday, as the country tries to end speculation against the Egyptian pound. Egypt has accelerated a crackdown against black market traders it blames for growing pressure to devalue the currency. The dollar is being sold on the black market for about 12.65 to 12.7

asciilifeform: 'It's annoying to deal with because the motor has to be loosened so that the belt can be removed so that one can get to the set ***on the pulley. If you have the same problem be forewarned that there is a small flat on the spindle shaft that the set***should be aligned with.'

asciilifeform: but if you're using a key exported from phuctor, you never need to do this

phf: how do i convert a binary key to its armorerd counterpart, without importing into keyring?

phf: i never grok why some of these javascript libraries don't just provide a demo console. "everything you need is loaded on this page, feel free to run your browser's dev console" ☟︎

asciilifeform: lel for a second i almost expected ^ that to be the protonmail turd i threw in.

asciilifeform: thestringpuller: do you know of a place where one can conveniently test, without putting in actual work, what pubkeys the thing eats ?

asciilifeform: initially i missed the www-based crapolade entirely, because it simply did not occur to me that any serious number of people were dumb enough to ~use~ such a thing

asciilifeform: thestringpuller: i was testing it as a potential eater of khadeer-style keys.

asciilifeform: it ~exports~ user's pubkey, but does not - as far as i can tell - have a knob for ~importing pubkeys~, checking signatures of incoming messages, etc.

a111: Logged on 2016-08-04 15:38 asciilifeform: 'though the pgp keys in question do not import into gpg, they can be imported in a couple javascript pgp-trons: https://www.igolder.com/PGP/encryption/ and http://ianpurton.com/online-pgp/ ...'

danielpbarron: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-11#1518208 << yes. see : http://trilema.com/2014/consent-is-a-myth-lets-see-how-it-came-to-be/ >> It'd be nice, you know, if one didn't have to go to work encased in ballistic armor, if one didn't have to probe all food items for shit, and if one could rely on the notion that if on the receiving end of a sexual proposition, that proposition stems from something direct rather than from some sort of met ☝︎

mircea_popescu: eh just put a htaccess rule from old to new name scheme

ben_vulpes: part a is trivial, and works, but oh man part b

ben_vulpes: so here's a dumblarious notion: move all the old html into the webserver root to preserve links, and then make a dummy post for each page that redirects to the correct flat html file

ben_vulpes: hm so would it be possible to keep the year/month/ for most post titles but override it on a per-post basis

mircea_popescu: there's a Permalink: http://trilema.com/2016/giro-girotondo…bello-il-mondo/ Edit << that button.

mircea_popescu: a yes, you can name the url anything you wish, just click on it under the title when editing an article

mircea_popescu: look for any time i typoed a title. the old url still works.

mircea_popescu: what's a post slug ?

ben_vulpes: eeeeeentirely unrelatedly, mircea_popescu is there a way to set post slugs in mp-wp?

mircea_popescu: lulzy thing with him. "why did they draw a hitler moustache on him ??" "nono, he ~wore~ that. it was a fashion at the time. like bell bottoms." "ooh"

mircea_popescu: if you're gonna sell it, at least sell it in a ditch, fighting to exterminate the jews or to not exterminate the jews or something.

a111: Logged on 2014-07-19 03:15 mircea_popescu: now among this dozen, there was a mentally retarded girl. she wasn't badly touched, maybe 80 or so. definitely enough to take care of herself. definitely not enough for high level math. her parents however were i dun recall what academic country gentry, and so they insisted she go.

a111: 0 results for "she's a furniture", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=she's%20a%20furniture

asciilifeform: $s she's a furniture

mircea_popescu: insanity is never a good thing in the mix.

mircea_popescu: take one single point of reference, i think it works pars pro toto : "She says that entrepreneurs need to have a thick skin. “Just don’t care” is her advice. She says you need to just keep going – remember, the internet is a cruel and malicious place for a girl in a bikini top and elf ears."

ben_vulpes: "you got raped. does it make a difference that you were dressed in your leila costume?"?

mircea_popescu: i posit a good comparison is "tb patient spit in your mouth. does it make a difference if you have aids ?"

mircea_popescu: for one thing. but even without that...insanity is never a good thing in the mix.

mircea_popescu: do you perceive the difference between "im raping you because i think you're fucking hot" and "i'm raping you because i'm fixated on a character i've decided you represent" ?

mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes as to the other point - fetishism is still unhealthy. samatha fox was, sex toy or no, still samatha fox. and if someone cornered her in a dark alley and stuck it in her, the rape happened to samantha.

ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: there is still 2 or three years of these wunkderkids for the mpaa to chew through before cockboxmaster or ($seen) Framedragger get their butts off the couch and make a wot-blessed tracker

mircea_popescu: because of a weakening of corporate grip on ip, the two are mixing, to the detriment of everyone involved

mircea_popescu: they had it in revolutionary france. it's been around for a while.

mircea_popescu: (samantha fox was this chick posing for the sun "page 3 girl" as a 15yo, built a huge following. perhaps the last of a lengthy tradition of fetish/pin-up idols starting with... < fill in)

ben_vulpes: that's so far removed from sensible contextualization to be a worthless question

mircea_popescu: in context of "why there weren't a buncha derpy 20yo chicks running around dressed as minnie in 1976"

asciilifeform: (incidentally 0 - afaik - extant footage of a chick doing it..)

mircea_popescu: i suspect she's a super-soft camho. non-nude.

mircea_popescu: dude... i'd pay a mn a year to just not be her.

mircea_popescu: what do they do with the other 199 hours in a month

mircea_popescu: "Lindsay’s costs are mostly for costumes. Prices vary, depending on complexity. Her favorite costume, Game of Thrones Cersei Lannister cost $200 (and didn’t sell many prints). For this she used upholstery fabric at $30 a yard." << im trying to recall when it was i bought a woman an outfit for less than $200. wtf.

mircea_popescu: somehow they don't even notice this. "why aren't you in asian then ???" "oh, from ohio to la was long enough a trip for me!"

mircea_popescu: ome of its stars – like Alodia Gosiengfiao (5 million plus facebook fans) might easily pull in a high six-figure income." << THIS.
