asciilifeform: ah see if i get even 1 'wrote x but read y' drive is dropped and hotspare is turned on

mircea_popescu: i've never seen that in a ssd. it's either "low spare" or else bricked.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: aha, i use only hardware raid

asciilifeform: i keep raid at home, recall.

asciilifeform: btw i have no means of turning the thing back on personally.

mircea_popescu: heh. what can i tell ya.

asciilifeform: i live in one

asciilifeform: i suspect that it is because chicago is not expected to last long when the lafondocalypse

asciilifeform: i would like to know why the diff

asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i see orc ac

mircea_popescu: i'd have expected by the time he's 35 he's built himself a self-expanding "house" and set it out in arizona or w/e

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo actually i'm moderately surprised alf's preferred mode isn't actually intermodal containers. including a set of containers containing robotrs that make containers and so on.

asciilifeform: aha! i miss it still

mircea_popescu: i think i showed you the grated concrete hole

a111: Logged on 2016-05-26 01:31 BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> i bet mircea_popescu knows what chicago costs.. << $500 a month for apartment

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-26#1472204 << lel, BingoBoingo actually thinks i'd fit in a $500 anything on whatever planet ☝︎

BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> i bet mircea_popescu knows what chicago costs.. << $500 a month for apartment ☟︎

asciilifeform: i bet mircea_popescu knows what chicago costs..

asciilifeform: lel not before i alchemy

asciilifeform: i think the floor above mine has golden toilets

mircea_popescu: (not that i have much hope.)

mircea_popescu: just like the new generation of cunny is "i love to watch netflix", the new generation of cocklet is, "computer security and i like to travel". post-postmodernity.

mircea_popescu: in random intel of the day : http://www.marathon-studios.com/ in its own copy "Marathon Studios, Inc. manages a network of web properties, apps and services used by millions of people around the world every month. We specialize in creating clean, modern applications designed to help make the Web a more useful place for our visitors. ", but really the dba of one jonathan weber (in his own face http://www.marathon-studios.com/i

mircea_popescu: but by now i suspect they're mostly artificially agitated.

mircea_popescu: see, i can appreciate this "1880 street urchin or ru peasant sedated by malnutrition is 'calm'", except the first part is strictly incorrect ; and yet... there's a counter recorded also.

mircea_popescu: yeah but i meant the germane part.

asciilifeform: i bet edison's original electric chair is in some restaurant here somewhere

mircea_popescu: i don't think it is normal ; i think it was common, in america, in the 20th century. but not really otherwise.

mircea_popescu: these dudes/dudettes figuring "they should change the world" or w/e the fuck they're figuring, i have no idea. average joe on a mission of ruining his own life because too much tv.

mircea_popescu: i just meant settle down in the general sense ; they're kids that ate too much sugary goop.

mircea_popescu: how am i to not know the difference, immediately, between one or the other ? it simply can not be.

mircea_popescu: i doubt this. it's more of a cost on women than on men, to begin with.

asciilifeform: also i accidentally pasted above to pet

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-25#1472092 << i'm convinced that ~all thinking blokes with offspring, just kowtowed to woman as condition of fucking ☝︎

mircea_popescu: i have no idea, but i am persuaded such planet'd suck big time.

mircea_popescu: and just the fact that i can say what i want, and then it magically appears while i irc... what restaurant can do this.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: re mega-quote, what do i pay to visit planet where there can be no pdiddy?

mircea_popescu: and i'm sure they're makin' someone happy.

a111: Logged on 2015-02-21 01:19 mircea_popescu: "she's been going through 6-7k each month since autumn, but i get to go visit p diddy whenever i feel like it. it's a wash"

mircea_popescu: so you know ... is it expensive ? well no, if i had to chez victor every day i'd be looking at 1/4 mn p a bills.

mircea_popescu: i was not even thinking of anything under 100 a plate tbh.

ben_vulpes: and if one gets enough of it, even the $20/plate shit starts to lose its appeal. "what did you bring me? and at what speed? i get better at home in my underwear, and it's salted properly to boot."

mircea_popescu: "lottery is a fool's proposition" "i've won five million" etc etc

pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: not that bios are my thing, so i really have little to compare it to. so take the recommendation with a grain of salt.

ben_vulpes: i don't know what line of mine you're responding to.

asciilifeform: and all i ever really wanted was to live in 1880s

asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: yeah i know

asciilifeform: also i'm in a magnificent bldg , so old that the lifts have lifteurs, and everything is polished brass and marble

asciilifeform: i dun cook, clean, or fuck myself

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i wasn't aware the notion of children = unwanted pests is at all controversial. pretty much the only mammals that engage in it do so when they have absolutely no other option, much like poor working classes hitting the gin.

ben_vulpes: sat up under his own steam the other day, entirely on accident i'm sure.

pete_dushenski: eh children aren't so bad. hell, i don't even mind work these days. taxes and women ? let's just call them a challenge to be risen to.

Framedragger: The Web trivialized this original Xanadu model, vastly but incorrectly simplifying these problems to a world of fragile ever-breaking one-way links, with no recognition of change or copyright, and no support for multiple versions or principled re-use. Fonts and glitz, rather than content connective structure, prevail.""" <- sorry i get sentimental easily :/ ☟︎

Framedragger: sometimes i just want to dedicate my life to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Xanadu ; there are those moments.

Framedragger: mircea_popescu: re. http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-19#1468545 i spoke with smart folk and i'll consider writing a short design document of some kind, for general and specific criticism. fair warning, will also use that opportunity to to enquire how it can be funded by tmsr / whateva. because can't hurt. ☝︎

vc: ok sure, I will stay in this channel and I will let you know

vc: ok sure, mircea_popescu is this a time-sensitive request? I would prefer to wait until I get all the other services running and analyze the storage situation before I commit to another 120GB of storage

vc: ok, I understand

vc: (I'm trying to figure out whether your bitcoin network is the most popular bitcoin network or a hard fork of another network)

vc: hm, I feel I may be missing some details. If you pay me 1.07 BTC will that BTC be usable with services connected to the BTC network such as Coinbase or Newegg?

asciilifeform: all i need is a horde

Framedragger: (i jest)

Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i ran out of popcorn so ordered some more but bitcoins are not confirming.... chinese hackers??? :/

vc: I understand that this is a branch of some type from the typical doings of what I know as the bitcoin foundation

vc: let me do a bit more research first before I accept your money, want to be sure everything will be fine

vc: ok sure, I can do that

mircea_popescu: not terribly much ; i've never measured to average > 1mbps.

vc: oh I see, I found thebitcoin.foundation

vc: I do not know what a trb node is

mircea_popescu: tell you what : i'll buy that, and pay it in advance for a year, provided you install and manage a trb node there.

vc: though I think I should be able to offer expansions to disk space, not sure about that yet

mircea_popescu: i am asking you, if i intend to run a btc node, ie, a blockchain's worth of gb etc, what's the solution cock.li offers

vc: I'm not sure what you're referring to. Are you asking me how I'm doing btc payments?

vc: I'd pay $500 to fuck the journalist at antena 1 that interviewed me tbh

Framedragger: (man, i just remembered one of the reasons i started hanging around here. these characters and their stories..)

mircea_popescu: the system's been around for decades ; i fucked a bunch in my day. recently they tried to close the thing down, arrested gals by the pail, but... from what i hear it didn't take. ☟︎

vc: I can't tell if you're serious or not ☟︎

vc: lmao I haven't seen any

vc: most of them falsely claimed I was wanted by the FBI

vc: yeah, I did interviews for digi 24, antena 3, antena 1, and uh whatever the public broadcast one is

vc: I am colocating, and yes physical security is a serious consideration ;)

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo whadda ya think ? acceptabru ? i'll clean it up an' send over.

vc: how do I do this fancy OTP thing

vc: I don't really know anything I don't like, though I did see a gypsy shitting in the street about a month ago, that was pretty unsettling

mircea_popescu: the place, i mean.

vc: I went with an older friend who was a government official before he retired

mircea_popescu: i do.

vc: I had lunch at Excelsior in Bucharest, if you know that place

vc: nowhere that's public information :@) though I plan on backpacking most of europe next year

vc: only after it was all over did I realize I'm too damn young to get married

vc: turned out to be one of the best decisions I've made

vc: (after a 6 year relationship, so it's not like I was jumping in feet-first)

vc: I almost got married though a couple years ago

vc: nope, I'm 21

vc: I have no idea of the republic or tmsr I just heard shit was hot and poppin' here so I joined

vc: I take inspiration from GNAA in that regard, though I think I could make it into an actual profit-producing company

vc: the way I had it described to me is "almost like ironic professionalism"

vc: I dream of a world where I incorporate cock.li and operate and expand a semi-trolling corporation

vc: I have lots of experience as a linux sysadmin, which helps ;)

vc: I have literally 0 experience running a VPS provider
