BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> ben_vulpes: gotta love
the 'sonic attack' usg.partyline idiocy. described item ( supposing it physically
took place ) is 100% consistent with rf injury. << Or
transient ischemia which is common in
the chair sitting classes.
ben_vulpes: wouldn't put it past either
the usg or cn engineering departments
to fail at recreating
the su rf-illuminated snooper but
to screw up
the power by a few orders of magnitude
mircea_popescu: you want
to not credit it, don't. you want nobody
to credit it, HAVE MORE FRIENDS.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, im off
to manage some efforts
to research
the world for pizarro's benefit inter alia, so bbs.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: if and only if everyone's in chains,
then and
then only can you be entirely sure nobody's linked
two z80 chips
together and cycling "alf is a pooperhead" back and forth between
them.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: the problem defined as "alf does not want
there
to exist such a
thing as a website printing random numbers" can not be solved in general. it can be rendered mute, but only by nuking
the web, and
the sort of item
that produced it, which is
to say neets.
mircea_popescu: sending some
thugs
to scare
the peons is
the 2nd cheapest
thing in
the book.
mircea_popescu: and it's way
the fuck more expensive and involved
to neuter all mosquitoes
than it is for a mosquito
to lay eggs.
a111: Logged on 2018-05-23 16:57 mircea_popescu: Mocky, wait
till you get
to "cheating in wolf form".
mircea_popescu: because
the reason
the gox exist is
that
they're cheap
to make, and
therefore
the democracy makes.
mircea_popescu: controlling
the future is
the ultimate point,
there's no "if onlyt i could control
the sunrise
time i could make myself some cheap coffee"
mircea_popescu: well ? i mean what, you want
to control
the future now, as a SIDE POINT ?
mircea_popescu: have more friends / be nicerf
to
the folk who, however ineptly,
tries
to be your friends,
talk
to more people, etc.
mircea_popescu: why sit and fret
that "which
thing i choose
to do -- is
the
thing i choose
to do" ?
mircea_popescu: alright! so
then what is
the problem ? you wanna use gox for settlement, you're allowed. you don't wanna,
there's an alternative scheme. you wanna use something else, all
the better.
mircea_popescu: o for fucks sake. will you start reading
the logs at any point, or is
the douchebag issue contagious.
mircea_popescu: the republican substitute for
this purpose was documented last year. yes ? no ?
mircea_popescu: %
Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed
Time
Time
Time Current
mircea_popescu: and no, it's not because of girly reason-substitute ("oh, it's
too hard, rite,
that's why you don't spend your life rasiing my spawn, because you ain't got what it
takes!!!!") either.
mircea_popescu: it's not
that "nobody can be arsed". is
that, unlike asciilifeform , nobody regards website-with-random-numbers as relevant. i also don't spend my
time
trying
to "be mentioned by new york
times".
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, nobody other
than you will attempt
to play
the game on enemy
terms.
mircea_popescu: like 15yo girls
trying
to get fucked if it's not painful.
mircea_popescu: however,
they also lack
the very military modesty of soviet russia, being instead old spinster maids. so
they make a ... "here's a not really value we were only kidding k ?"
mircea_popescu: but yes, your intuition is broadly correct : usg lacks both
the actual size and
the self-perceived size of soviet russia. as a result,
they don't come out with a "x per rouble" statement.
mircea_popescu: in general
the way
the proxy game is played is exactly like
that, by proxy.
a111: Logged on 2018-05-23 04:21 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, only for as long as
they got
the 50k or 1 btc.
deedbot: Invoiced ben_vulpes 0.00756304 << FG<->rockchip
TTL cables ( incl. orc delivery )
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: It came
to my desk once DHL got it back from Aduanas
a111: Logged on 2018-05-23 16:26 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: possibly
they dun
trust
the employees
to handle cash ? or aren't contracted with cash van co.
BingoBoingo: Everything after
the scans were ack'd spent waiting for inspection.

the implementation is not particularly elegant (C concerns are at odds with lisp concerns), you can pouch
the ccl bits
though. i'm not sure if
there's a better way
to do errno handling, without relying on private ccl symbols
Mocky: reminds me of
the
time I 'invented'
the
trie in anger, meanwhile knuth vol 3 sitting on my desk (having not finished vol 1)
mircea_popescu: 1:0 beotch,
take your alfred and fuckgoats it!!!1 mwahahaha.
Mocky: well I've seen
the bitcoin foundation page before so evidently 'mocky invented' ~= 'mocky pulled from subconscious'
mod6: good
to hear
that in some form or fashion,
things can make it
there.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Package made it, delivered
to desk
a111: Logged on 2015-02-03 19:37 PeterL: mircea_popescu: "You do not have, nor you can ever acquire
the right
to use, copy or distribute
this software" << should be "nor can you ever"
BingoBoingo: Much as dollars in Uruguay are U$S and pesos are $,
the index unit appears as UI or IU
a111: Logged on 2018-05-23 05:01 mircea_popescu: 15k words since last night, are4 you fucking kidding me, everyone current is reading
two novels / week.
spyked: ave1, printenv | grep CFLAGS/LDFLAGS both return nil so I'm okay on
that front. but my glibc/ld are post-gcc-4.9, so your explanation about system headers being used sounds plausible.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> ( handling cash in orcistan where cash van robbery is national sport, is , i'd expect, not inexpensive ) << Seems more like a
tourist activity done by Chileños here
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: possibly
they dun
trust
the employees
to handle cash ? or aren't contracted with cash van co. << Also common here
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: is
there a reason not
to go straight
to city hall or wherever
the magic actually happens ? <<
The paperwork prices for
the gov's part is published online in a 3rd local currency,
the "Index Unit" which needs
to be converted
to pesos.
ave1: I will look into it further, but I have no
time for it right now.
a111: Logged on 2018-05-23 14:49 spyked: ave1, ^ if
the error looks
too cryptic, or if you've encountered it on broken systems -- or if you know
that
the system compiler is used at all,
then don't let me waste your
time. can report again after experimenting on system with proper gcc.
ave1: spyked,
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-23#1817663, no problem in fact
the opposite.
This helps in getting
the cowwebs out of
the build process (I've also
tested on machines with gcc 7).
The build process is picking up
the glibc linux headers at a point where only musl headers should be used.
This is usually caused by a system library being picked up in
the build process.
☝︎ BingoBoingo:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-23#1817526 << I am wary of brining payments
to
the datacenter
that
they might lose, and during
the earliest meetings
they wrinkled
their noses when I offered
the possiility of showing up with envelopes of cash while waiting for a local bank account. I suspect
they have a cultural hangup against eating anything other
than wires due
to
their self images.
☝︎ a111: Logged on 2018-05-23 04:43 ben_vulpes: needs a wire and a WU-gram; and speaking of, BingoBoingo anything
to report on
the .uy corp formation front?
phf: (i
think a proper lisp interface ought
to separate pathname defaults from
the name pattern, so you call it like (m-t-d "fooXXX" #p"/tmp/") but return #p"/tmp/fooabc/".
that's not a consequential concern for anyone except for me
though)
a111: Logged on 2018-05-23 02:43 esthlos: btw
trinque, have made most of changes
to vtron, just have
to add mkstemp for ccl (which I know
thanks
to phf is #_mkstemp)

☟︎ spyked: native gcc on
the system is indeed >4 (5.4
to be more precise), but I expected
that one
to not be used at all? anyway,
that might it. in
this case I expect my next run
to finish without
trouble.
