mircea_popescu: most of the extant ones consist of a subunitary mancount.
mircea_popescu: there's enough material here to make 15 usg."tech" "task forces".
a111: Logged on 2018-06-11 22:58 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i still find it lulzy how google apparently banked on nobody outside of their heathen pit getting hold of the fucking debug hose.
asciilifeform: no motor, nuffing, just picture little screwdriver with drill tip.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, only if you know which way to go.
asciilifeform: eh drilling cleanly is 'easy', ever seen the tool, clockmaker's drill
mircea_popescu: i suspected something like this. but now i see it.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: why do you suppose i asked for xray, lol, earlier today.
asciilifeform: ther's a pulldown enabled on it, so that will give basic litmus re whether we found
mircea_popescu: and any way to drill to them cleanly
mircea_popescu: maybe a low power xray shot would actually be worth it, see if there's any lone balls.
asciilifeform: and can then only be reached with drill
asciilifeform: ( either that or it's a sad and unrouted ball entirely )
asciilifeform: but somehow i suspect that 'b4' is one of the pads.
asciilifeform: academic, there's no simple way to get to most of'em
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, i don't expect pulling up all the pins one at a time will brick the machine, do you ?
a111: Logged on 2018-06-11 22:36 asciilifeform: they're exactly like eichmann, perfect little marvels of industrious compartmental schizoid
asciilifeform: sooo apparently we want to pull ~up~ pin B4, which is 'pin 10 of port 0' , wherever the fuck that physically is.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-11 22:32 asciilifeform: it'd be one thing if, say, google dev showed up and 'yes i'ma pgp to mircea_popescu the magic key', or even 'here's the schem'. but nooo, instead they come to 'explain' to us how 'tpm can be used to benefit you' .
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-11#1823258 << yeah, this "i'll live on my own terms" bs is pretty fucking outrageous, isn't it. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: saw an old woman balancing a sack on her head while looking in a shop window. ~split the diff ?
mircea_popescu: not a bad trick...
Mocky: speaking of drool, i saw a moron at the gym today balancing a water bottle on his head while chatting up a chic. almost got a pic
mircea_popescu: Mocky, you should have seen what mah escort was wearing today.
mircea_popescu: if you go hang out on highschool campus, a very infuriating process of cockteasing may well be the norm.
Mocky: "Looking at cleavage is like looking at the sun. You don't stare at it. It's too risky. Ya get a sense of it and then you look away."
a111: Logged on 2018-06-11 22:06 BingoBoingo: that, or to repeat the "common" process they are sure gets done all the time.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-11#1823228 << i believe this is more like it. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: Mocky, somehow i didn't mind that so much.
BingoBoingo: <Mocky> worse that when it was raining trucker tits?? << That wasn't so bad. I got to listen to alf complain about that with my ears in real time.
trinque: tell you what, those trucker tits tightened my txn-hucking loop into the minutes scale. can't even complain.
Mocky: worse that when it was raining trucker tits??
mircea_popescu now understands what alf feels when coming to machine after n hours of mp entertaining idiots.
mircea_popescu: holy shit this mgiht be the most infuriating log since we're logging.
a111: Logged on 2016-12-29 18:40 asciilifeform: not everybody wants to be involved with mega-empires, on the giving or on the receiving end. in that light, the pashtun mountains are every bit a 'high-tech' deterrent as a SAM battery.
asciilifeform: well at least in theory
asciilifeform: bahahaha i found the factory test mode pin
BingoBoingo: It however is impossible to go "full Charrúa" because they Uruguayos of all people genocided them under General Fructuoso Rivera before mass immigration of Italian trashpeople ruined Cisplatine culture
mircea_popescu: Mocky, pashtun is this word for tribesmen inhabiting the place empires go to die (afghanistan)
BingoBoingo: You can also go full Teuton, full eskimo
BingoBoingo: It's one way to go nativ
BingoBoingo: Mocky: The simple life of freedom visible in certain tribes.
asciilifeform: i have 1 of these here ( well, a part-timer )
mircea_popescu: this is a pretty cool cat, tbh.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-11 23:22 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-11#1822571 << are we talking, bipedal or quadripedal ?
trinque: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-11#1823317 << the tiny furry bastard. has a whole greeting protocol, consistent vocalizations, says his name by way of butthole display. worlds beyond what these derps consider communication when they arrive. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: Sleep in the hills with blanket, kalash, and a local goat-girl
BingoBoingo: And if that well ever went dry here, going full Pashtun is always an option
BingoBoingo: I suspect the level of human dysfunction we are encountering is different. Thankfully my problem is alleviated by saner girls importing themselves here from Northern South America because "land of opportunity"
danielpbarron: same to me
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: This isn't lack of belief in their heads so much as lack of life
danielpbarron: i've seen and met plenty of good looking but am no stranger to later learning they are no good, but in my case because of lack of belief
a111: Logged on 2016-09-08 16:03 asciilifeform: pretty lulzy, motherfucking 16TH CENTURY b00k, is NOWHERE on the net.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-11 21:01 hl`: not really trustworthy if they have non-free firmware on them, but theoretically they have a use case
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-11#1823103 << even worse if they have usg's rsa keys in them. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: medieval minds gave a lot of funny coats to things.
BingoBoingo: <danielpbarron> nontheless, it would offend my brothers and sisters to do such a thing << Come to Uruguay. Live here six months. Hire girls you would have though good looking when you arrived, but because of their deep cultural failings you now view as well dressed more fuckable goats.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron, it's mostly a medieval conceit. had to display it as something. you ever saw the dog-like elephant i linked once ?
Mocky: danielpbarron, i've spoken those words so many times, lol
mircea_popescu: grow the apple in the shape of a bitcoin...
danielpbarron: (the fruit of the knowledge of good an evil was never descsribed as being an apple)
danielpbarron: nontheless, it would offend my brothers and sisters to do such a thing
Mocky: hire strippers and dress them in fig leaves
danielpbarron: there are prohibitions against nudity, but they pertain to family relations
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> if god wanted people dressed he'd have made them that way. << You forget the Mayogendered. Dressed in yeast
mircea_popescu: if god wanted people dressed he'd have made them that way.
danielpbarron: i can't tell you that
mircea_popescu: i didn't sday hookers, did i ? don't tell me nudity is ungodly ?!
danielpbarron: yes that
danielpbarron: i cannot personally be responsible for such a thing
danielpbarron: they probably have a free spot left -- the rest of you are welcome to try
mircea_popescu: none of this "bitcoin embassy" buncha pasty ass bois bitpay's been doing
danielpbarron: can't do that
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron, if you represent the republic, do me a favour and hire a half dozen strippers to be mostly naked, will you.
danielpbarron: i don't think they could have turned me down even if my aim was to represent the republic tho. 700 USD or whatever for a vendor spot.
mircea_popescu: we don't get to know, do we.
asciilifeform: i was thinking also, 'advocate' where, in local bierhaus ?
mircea_popescu: because otherwise, really, the thing you "identify as" at parties bears no meaning and no interest, for us as for the chicks that don't come with you to your records collection.
danielpbarron: asciilifeform, you certainly missed 0. it was only fun for me for as long as there were easy drugs and poker, and now going forward, because they will let me openly preach along side Darwin Fish
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-11#1823026 << this sort of statement would be so much more useful/important/noteworthy/actually existent if it came in the form of "i'm the guy from $X, long term so and so". where $X doesn't have to be a "our words are backed by nuclear weapons" state. can even be a blog. a dogshed. SOMETHING. but something specifically and identifiably existent. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-06-11 21:40 asciilifeform: in one ear and out the other, apparently .
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: can cut to the verdict, if you like, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-11#1823215 . ☝︎
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> asciilifeform, unless you're looking for confused teeny cunt, you never miss much by missing the congregations of confused teeny cunt. << And for that alf needs to do Uruguay delivery runs during the summer.
mircea_popescu: ok, i'm skipping the rest of this swiftgeek barf, it's indigestible.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, unless you're looking for confused teeny cunt, you never miss much by missing the congregations of confused teeny cunt.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-11 23:54 danielpbarron: they have some app exibitors can use to promote where they'll be and what they are serving (i reserved a vendor campsite specifically for the purpose of provoking conversation about the Bible) -- i also mention in my "profile" that i'm a lord in the most serene republic of Bitcoin, which mysteriously gets removed. I add it again, removed again. They apparently don't mind a religious "cult" but not
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-11#1823362 << i was never able to arise myself to visit this lulzfest, and now beginning to think that i didn't miss much ☝︎
BingoBoingo: Plenty of dogs understand speech even if they suck at generating it
mircea_popescu: dog that doesn't learn speech doesn't so much have a pathology as a dogology.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo, even that much is not clear.
BingoBoingo: <Mocky> i suppose idiocy not baked into hindbrain << What you described happening to you was light coming on in a dark place letting you see. It is an absence phenonmenon. Nothing inherently bad.
a111: Logged on 2016-01-19 21:55 ascii_butugychag: the whole point of engineering is to cut apart the happenstance-linked crud from what you actually want.
asciilifeform: Mocky: it's the ~only part.
mircea_popescu: just because it's useful dun mean it's a tech.
mircea_popescu: i wouldn't be impressed with gravel mill that only milled some gravels.
mircea_popescu: this is the problem. education only ever succeds on some and never on others, in which case what sort of technology is it, really.
mircea_popescu: Mocky, could we then say there was nothing there to cure in the first place ?
danielpbarron: it's a common reaction from those who know they aren't in the know to those who think they are, that my perscsription is bunk
Mocky: was cured first time i saw 'yeah this dns exploit reveals everything' immediately saw whole things as crock of shit
asciilifeform: hard to say for certain.
