mircea_popescu: in other news, i just got a pingback for an article you published in 2014
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i'd seriously say if i had anything useful. but sadly...
mircea_popescu: it's all divs man. they float, man. let the the divs float man.
mircea_popescu: ahaha that's a right proper mess of a page you got there
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes page is for "pages" which is a weird concept, but stuff like my eulora shop for instance
mircea_popescu: you know, specifying what kind of plastic pipe to shove up their asses.
mircea_popescu: nah, somebody paid 100 rubles for "a service" and in the process created a whole fucking club of burker ging eaters droning on about THE WEB INDUSTRY IN RUSSIA
mircea_popescu: ie, adult male hired inept kid to "do something or the other" because kid's mother won't shut up.
mircea_popescu: i saw a pretty lulzy thing in this vein today, there was a horde of zombies going by an advertising to a tv show about zombies.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-14#1603049 << this is something your theme sorts out. the way trilema works there's a single.php and an index.php ; the former gets loaded when a definite article is being viewed, the latter when trilema.com/ root is being viewed, and pulls a random article. yours could do something else.
☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo you recall lafond's piece in which he wonders why is it women think it a good idea to try and stick their fingers up the anus while sucking cock ?
mircea_popescu: yeah, all the way to akkerman (bilhorod-dnistrovskyi).
mircea_popescu: (i find it no end of amusing that today the same romania isn't agitating for eating up the western third of the actuak ukraine, "historically romanian territory")
mircea_popescu: anyway, it was part of the ro agitation towards the ukraining of the austro-hungarian empire and giving it some parts.
mircea_popescu: "better die in battle with untarnished honor than be a slave again on the old homeland"
mircea_popescu: the poem in question became romania's anthem afterwards.
mircea_popescu: to quote a shot guy, "mai bine mort in lupta cu glorie deplina decit sclavi iarasi pe vechiul pamint."
mircea_popescu: why land anywhere, buy a bunch of local politicians/judges/policemen etc, make a small stronghold.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not according to archive.is ; maybe they invented a whole new web or something.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform in all likeliness site wasn;'t updated in 2016.
mircea_popescu: (you may be excused from thinking that's a stupid question, as it is, but nevertheless the rust lingo is insane in this vein. "why can i not borrow a boxed vector content as mutable" ie let's make up a whole lingo of nonsense)
mircea_popescu: anyway, /me tires of #rust. there's been 500 join/parts and strictly one line ("<clmg> How do I borrow a vector mutably while iterating over that vector? Is it possible?") in the past 3 hours.
mircea_popescu: "Your free speech is not our problem. We recognize that this policy is a restrictive political stance. That is the intent. If you want a room with different rules, go create one."
mircea_popescu: oh unsurprisingly enough rust has a "code of conduct". this is getting to be signal-positive : if $item has "code of conduct", $item is comprised of idiots, imbeciles and their handlers.
mircea_popescu: but no, you can't do this with an empty post, it'd have to include dataz.
mircea_popescu: so i thought long and hard wtf it could be, and it finally occured to me maybe they're using the pingback checking trilema does to "drive traffic", ie, dorks "buy traffic", spammer asks list of wordpress installs to check if dork has pingback, dork thinks he's getting "uniques".
mircea_popescu: but as the months wore on (no fucking kidding, half a year +, 2-3-5 a minute, every minute, no exception, i've seen by now 10`000s of ips doing THIS and this only) i started thinking maybe i'm the stupid one here ?
mircea_popescu: at first i thought they're trying to spam trilema, and doing it from central ip but inept enough to not realize that the custom error message trilema spits if you try this is NOT a success (ie, matching for failure, and failing to move on). ie, stupid.
mircea_popescu: if anyone can explain this wonder to me i'd be indebted.
mircea_popescu: leaving aside the idiocy of ... seriously, you're going to specify BOTH request time and request time float to be passed around through each request forever ?!?! ... wtf is this ? empty posts to xmlrpc.php. why.
mircea_popescu: (+
http://www.google.com/bot.html)" s:12:"QUERY_STRING" s:0:"" s:13:"191.101.6.178" s:14:"REQUEST_METHOD" s:4:"POST" s:11:"REQUEST_URI" s:11:"/xmlrpc.php" s:18:"REQUEST_TIME_FLOAT" d:1484362254.992538928985595703125 s:12:"REQUEST_TIME" i:1484362254 s:4:"argv" a:0:{}s:4:"argc" i:0 }
mircea_popescu: this is utterly incomprehensible. so there's this bunch of bots that keep making empty post requests, identify as googlebot. here's a sample :
☟︎ mircea_popescu: in other holy shit wtf is wrong with people - mp decides to examine wtf are these dorks doing to his xmlrpc.php. so he writes in serialize($_POST), which is apparently how you're supposed to do this. but which also promptly fucks something up
mircea_popescu: yeah should be curious to see when did alf like dbus. rms ? pre ? post ?
mircea_popescu: every once in a while it'll happen that a retard has a good idea and fucks it up in the implementation. this is unavoidable, and some dirtying of hands will occur.
mircea_popescu: this has not so much to do with them and a lot to do with satoshi being a derp.
mircea_popescu: so, yet again : either you know computers, today, in which case you don't need the "open source" usgtards ; or else you don't know computers, today, in which case YOU NEVER WILL. period. no escape, no buts, no nothing. you NEVER WILL. and consequently it fucking does not matter one diddly what you do, be it github or reddit or writing lengthy missives to asciilifeform
mircea_popescu: the fact that no one is surprised is an argument for what i was saying.
mircea_popescu: well imagine those schmucks, born in 1910, starved duyring puberty, while orphaned by influenza, then spent their adult years at war, by the time they were 40 they had a cot of their own and enough fleas to satisfy their dog best friend, because woman was old and ugly already when they met.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform tried to try out rust. he gets no bots, has to make his own irc server, there's no phf etc.
mircea_popescu: and yes sucks for anyone born in 1990s, but so it goes.
mircea_popescu: so : if you're EVER GOING TO BE an adult, the idiocy outside doesn't matter. and if the idiocy outside matters, you weren't ever going to be an adult anyway. entirely disjunct sets
mircea_popescu: and i'm not about to stand for any "it doesn't counts because".
mircea_popescu: but at the risk of repeating myself, here it is again : esr, fabled luminary of the "blabla programming style" failed to get his thing done in a week. mp, fabled terrorist, managed to get his thing done in a week.
mircea_popescu: beyond "i disagree with what mp just said because my tooth hurts and i agree with him"
mircea_popescu: so then it is entirely unclear what your position is after all.
mircea_popescu: autofucking of girlies "from grindr" is a) trap and b) herpes.
mircea_popescu: "autoloading" of proggies "from network" is basically javascript.
mircea_popescu: so it's a bit of a pointless victory of the imaginary kind.
mircea_popescu: so the point is essentially moot. yes, if anyone gave a shit "they'd form their whole worldview through watching cnn". the problem is that the people watching cnn aren't goingto ever form a worldview anyway, and the people who will ever have formed a worldview don't watch it.
mircea_popescu: there's nothing that'll turn taaki into a human being.
mircea_popescu: point is - either you're an adult or you aren't. if you're an adult you don't find out where your asshole goes from googling assholes. if you're not an adult there is no hope for you anyway, no matter what.
mircea_popescu: what the fuck is there i may not know about and wish to have ? list ?
mircea_popescu: wtf would i install ? "oh i wonder what these new things called ides are, how about i install one and try it out"
