trinque: obviously I've been here for
those
threads.
trinque: mircea_popescu: I was
trolling alf here.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform,
the issue isn't whether we should have proper rt comms ;
the issue is why
the fuck would i want an intermediate step here. i don't, it's a great way
to waste manhours.
mircea_popescu: wtf do i want
to reimplement bs irc, end up with a dead genesis
that we won't use.
mircea_popescu: trinque,
the whole fucking idea is
to replace it once and good, with gossipd.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: which is what's his interest in all
this, i dunno why he recently figured out he wants a special irc network.
mircea_popescu: trinque, eventually,
the cost of inept hoops exceeds
the cost of let's just move.
trinque: if
the circumstance arose where somebody lifted "asciilifeform" I wouldn't be opposed
to changing
the alias string for same key
to "alfredalfer" as I've handled expired keys in
the past, by proving control of key
to me
trinque: deedbot doesn't require you be auth'd
to nickserv, but does challenge you based on
the nick with which you're speaking
to it.
mircea_popescu: we specifically
took out
the gribble "functionality" of "auth state" ; nanotube was
to fix his bot
to match but
then opted
to silently not
to, ended up negrated for it.
mircea_popescu: so... we've actually designed around
them. dun dun dun.
mircea_popescu: there's no "auth".
there's just voice. and as douchebag aptly pointed out, if you change
the name nothing happens.
mircea_popescu: the
true part (there's no
threat
to account security) comes from
the fact we don't even use
their derpy scheme.
mimisbrunnr: Logged on 2018-05-26 18:13 Neru: Global Notice] Hello freenode, you may have noticed 2 days ago many users got logged out of
their NickServ accounts. After our investigation, we have come
to
the conclusion one or more of our sponsored servers have been compromised. Please change your password IMMEDIATELY. More details are available in #freenode with
the command !help
mircea_popescu: there's 20k or whatever who connect, and 99% of
the humans involved are on #trilema, it's ridiculous.
mircea_popescu: anyway. rather
than
the
transparent shenanigans, it is of greater concern
that ~no one is on freenode. i mean,
the fucktards in #lisp still,
TO
THIS DAY, haven't yet figured
their way out of
the paper bag of my asking "hey folk, would you like a candi_lustt ?".
a111: Logged on 2016-02-19 15:24 mircea_popescu: <mircea_popescu> so now with
https://blog.freenode.net/2016/02/recent-events-and-future-changes/ it is probably a good
time
to point out
that i've been
trying
to get you people a server for maybe
three years now. are you still unable
to be helped or has
that bad habit of
the past changed also ? kloeri ? mist ? or who do i
talk
to.
mircea_popescu: i'm just
talking about
the one
they
themselves identified, 3 years ago or so.
mircea_popescu: especially
the 2nd order effect of "mandated post-mortems", none of
that inept shit where freenode announces it was nsa infected, promises write-up,
then forgets it did and replaces everyone involved.
ben_vulpes: afaik,
the option
to bamboozle is in withholding outputs or supplying synthetics
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: how would
this bamboozling work, operator still supplies address
to spend
to
mircea_popescu: and if it blows up, in lieu of
the product you give
the victims a signed full description of what happened.
ben_vulpes: once it
turns into a real item, aka bitcoin, i care. until
then, nop
a111: Logged on 2018-05-29 16:50 asciilifeform: if you wouldn't move own bitcoin
this way, why wouldja move own shitcoin (worth, nominally, a qty of bitcoin) with it.
ben_vulpes: there are
things for which i care about maintaining
the
tree of inputs
that resulted in my balance, and
there's ephemeral shit
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, hey, at least documenting
the lulz "everyone knows" where everyone
takes value from
the set of 5 folk who went
to
the same state street kindergarten we did...
trinque: I guess asciilifeform never had
the proverbial beater car
trinque: because it's an optimization problem with a disposable item as one of
the
terms
ben_vulpes: i'm not using it as a node, i'm using it as a scalpel
to slice flesh off altcoiners
mircea_popescu: the marginal utility is not 0, ill
throw some ex-coin in
the hopper if it's made.
mircea_popescu: note
that i was
talking
to jurov. considering he's intelligent and seems maybe interested (hard
to
tell, he's so quiet), and considering he's not currently doing anything,
the marginal cost in republican
terms is 0.
a111: Logged on 2018-05-29 01:08 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, ideally interfaces with all
the goxen.

there's a kind of white
trash beach resort area 2 hours driving from dc "ocean city". i've been going
there with some friends first day of summer for
the past few years for
that kitsch americana experience: all you can eat crabs, dirty east coast ocean,
trashy girls. perfect :)
a111: Logged on 2018-05-29 13:17 phf: mod6: it's going alright. i have
this general fatigue
that i'm having hard
time shaking off, but i'm going
to go
to
the ocean on friday for a couple of days, which ought
to fix me
mircea_popescu: what if girly in $advertising
twiddled her nose and went "meh..." ?!
mircea_popescu: they don't earnestly
try.
that's
the fucking point, when presented a paper car you don't ernestly
try
to drive it ; when presented a "social justice"
truth / "Global warming" science etc religious nonsense you don't earnestly
try
to verify it. you're supposed
to be excited and fucking clap, what
the fuck,
they're filming
the advertising not asking you what you
think.

the charges: i always
thought
that bateman was very earnestly participating in all
the games, but it's
the world around him
that was completely devoid of substance
trinque: it is
truly poverty for a man
to only have one FUCKGOAT
mod6: That is
the blog post :]
lobbes: BingoBoingo: I left a comment on yer guide re: php5.6 shitgnomes deprecating mysql in favor of mysqli. (Should be in queue).
This will be a boon indeed if we can string all
the quirks of mp-wp-on-rockchip in one place
diana_coman: BingoBoingo,
thanks; looking forward
to
the rest of
the walk
to mp-wp at any rate (I can see
the appeal of ligthtpd for sure)

there!

☟︎ phf: yeah
that's what i'm doing, a long weekend
mod6: Werd. I gotta remember
to work on finding some
time. Even if just a long weekened or whatever.
mod6: I'm hoping
to get some vacation in, still
trying
to plan something. Nothing definite yet
though.
mod6: speaking of maryland, I saw
that one
town near baltimore had some raging
torrents of rain rushing
through
the streets
this weekend.
phf: it's also
that brief
time of
the year in maryland dc area when
the weather is _good_.
the rollercoaster of winter is past, but
the swampy oppressive summer isn't here yet.
mod6: Ah, yeah. Get some well-deserved
time off. R&R for a few days at least.

☟︎ ave1: phf,
thank you, should be fixed now!
a111: Logged on 2018-05-29 01:46 mircea_popescu: well, his principal problem isn't even
that ; but rather
that
there isn't ~anything fucking
there~. he'd like
to have some sort of relationship with someone, but
the problem is
that he does not actually encounter anyone capable of it.
