asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: previously i thought 'equator --> retarded, guaranteed' -- turns out, no ?

asciilifeform: 0 reason.

asciilifeform: can lordly hall be a dumpster in alley ?

asciilifeform: not as such

asciilifeform: i have nothing against jurov, but do wonder why he does nearly all of his speaking in ye olde #b-a

asciilifeform: meanwhile, plagiarism of #trilema logz remains a mega-sport, evidently, https://www.blinklight.io/blog/2017-03-31/

asciilifeform: ( in re http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-29#1634423 ) ☝︎

asciilifeform: in other lulz, https://archive.is/gz0l9 >> communal flats soon to be sop in usa. ☟︎

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: al schwartz wrote about a similar parasite in fish

asciilifeform: https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/3037124/kids-suffer-horrific-burns-in-sinister-fire-fairy-online-game-which-tricks-them-into-turning-on-gas-ringsafter-blue-whale-suicide-game-is-linked-to-130-deaths/ << english , just for ben_vulpes

asciilifeform: it was supposed to be a lol, but mistimed, there is a mass hysteria in ru presently re 'gas fairy' and similar memes

asciilifeform: for selling chewing gum where wrapper had instruction 'climb to the top of a tall building and think of what you must accomplish before death'

asciilifeform: word has it that wriggley co. is in hot water with ru gov

asciilifeform: oh speaking of

asciilifeform: lul

asciilifeform: betcha somebody, somewhere, really did think 'oh hey a fiddycent treasury bond' at some point.

asciilifeform: how is printolade ( the last time asciilifeform bought postage stamps, they came out of an INKJET PRINTER i shit thee not, right in the vending machine) a hedge of any sort ?

asciilifeform: lolwat

asciilifeform: ffffffpt.

asciilifeform: i see a hog-tied chick

asciilifeform: ( pretty sure cr is one of the few places that still has him )

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: and pet a jaguar.

asciilifeform: what does zika do to a grown man anyway

asciilifeform: (were unable to pierce asciilifeform's skin, at all)

asciilifeform: incl. argentina, where the mosquitoes didn't even ~work~

asciilifeform: looks like usg has ~everything starting with texas and below coloured in.

asciilifeform: ain't it a bit far north for that

asciilifeform: or how did it go.

asciilifeform: it sure is, Framedragger described how expensive. you end up regularly booted off isp

asciilifeform: so presently asciilifeform is unimpressed

asciilifeform: (because, i suspect, 'konsoomer' and various 'it wouldn't do' propositions)

asciilifeform: doesn't see zoolag at all

asciilifeform: and doesn't do full port scan, has, e.g., nfi that dulap has bitcoin on 8333

asciilifeform: i was looking at it this morning -- not so nice imho. it seems to have unwritten snippety-snipping re 'konsoomer' ip ranges

asciilifeform: but -- rare.

asciilifeform: and believe or not, the bird is found even here.

asciilifeform: i think we've all heard the Click

asciilifeform: land of the ocelot, eh. who wouldn't want to visit.

asciilifeform: definitely.

asciilifeform: though given the condition of american airports, it is no longer obvious that air is faster..

asciilifeform: he likes driving.

asciilifeform: and oh hey, BingoBoingo can finally drive to visit mircea_popescu .

asciilifeform: lel

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: didja re-use the same old castle mircea_popescustein you had there prior ?

asciilifeform: http://trilema.com/2017/linda-vista-social-club/#comment-121714 << oh hah!

asciilifeform: ohai mircea_popescu

asciilifeform: in other lulz, http://phuctor.nosuchlabs.com/gpgkey/E2F4757FC884524C955F904C46307B1769B0A6F8B4FA439DB196277DA2599617

asciilifeform: number of microshit execs arrested and hanged : 0

asciilifeform: 'Huddleston, though, isn’t a hacker. He’s the author of a remote administration tool, or RAT, called NanoCore that happens to be popular with hackers. NanoCore has been linked to intrusions in at least 10 countries, including an attack on Middle Eastern energy firms in 2015, and a massive phishing campaign last August in which the perpetrators posed as major oil and gas company.'

asciilifeform: ^ and thread

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-04#1462458 ☝︎

asciilifeform: i recommend to reread mircea_popescu's 2parter re boeck.

asciilifeform: or,...

asciilifeform: and megablox

asciilifeform: or for when he pushed the latest shitoshi

asciilifeform: were you there for the seclist thread with boeck, Framedragger ?

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-31#1635126 << hey, if the imbecile public bought the melting skyscrapers, they'll buy a bridge, why not. ☝︎

asciilifeform: lol

asciilifeform read it, snored

asciilifeform: !#s flipolade

asciilifeform: generated for the occasion

asciilifeform: the inescapeable conclusion

asciilifeform: ( not in sks.. )

asciilifeform: shinohai: incidentally he had a 'we have MOAR!' article, containing a small number of the ones we popped at the time, plus some that i still have nfi where the corresponding pubkeys lived

asciilifeform: shinohai: lol, all of them?!

asciilifeform: vita brevis

asciilifeform: really we oughta be able to nail ~all~ of them.

asciilifeform still quite frustrated that he has not yet solved the various 'icebergs' whose 'birthday theorem' tip we are seeing -- e.g. mikrotik, etc

asciilifeform: aha?

asciilifeform: indeed.

asciilifeform: ( before anyone asks 'wtf' -- the fibertron wants 3.3v, so it gets it from the tap in the jtag port )

asciilifeform: fiber here is 5 metres, cheapest plastic (not glass)

asciilifeform: ( when i loopback it, connecting its arse and mouth -- worx )

asciilifeform: i expect it would also work quite well for 'data diode' and similar applications.

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-30#1609890 << it ☝︎

asciilifeform: the fiber converter pictured here is the one from the last fiber thread

asciilifeform: battery is the gold standard.

asciilifeform: chinese piece of shit power brick, however, note, is likely to have MOAR ripple than your pc.

asciilifeform: but yeah, pretty much anything 4-7v will work

asciilifeform: shinohai: normally it runs from the usb-ttl snake's 5v

asciilifeform: (linear regs, after all)

asciilifeform: gets a ~little~ warmer...

asciilifeform: (and yes thing is perfectly happy to run on 6v, as pictured)

asciilifeform: so far it seems like the filter was designed CORRECTLY -- i.e. the setup makes 0 measurable difference, e.g., 'ent' takes ~same volume of bytes to converge pi as prior.

asciilifeform: (2) requires a fiber

asciilifeform: FUCKGOATS includes a lowpass filter and three separate voltage regs, but the itch remains, does it make a diff if the thing were 1) powered by battery 2) isolated ENTIRELY from pc

asciilifeform: pc atx +5v is not ideal voltage source. and has ripple from all sorts of places.

asciilifeform: i suppose i do have to.

asciilifeform: lul

asciilifeform: ^ is it obvious what is in the picture or do i have to explain.

asciilifeform: ^ going as we speak

asciilifeform: in other crackpotteries, http://nosuchlabs.com/fg/fibertest/fg_isol_sender.jpg , http://nosuchlabs.com/fg/fibertest/fg_isol_receiver.jpg << mircea_popescu et al

asciilifeform: ( they -- in fact -- do )

asciilifeform: unrelatedly, can anybody tell me why zero-satoshi tx outputs exist ?!

asciilifeform: apparently he'll have to do, until they find another.

asciilifeform: the blunted, formerly sharp and pointy end of the http://btcbase.org/log/2015-11-15#1324569 spear ☝︎

asciilifeform: aah him

asciilifeform: not The Right somebody, evidently

asciilifeform: why stop at bitcoin. patent the nand gate. the transistor. algebra.
