mircea_popescu: "The originators of the Robber Baron concept were not the injured, the poor, the faddists, the jealous, or a dispossessed elite, but rather a frustrated group of observers led at last by protracted years of harsh depression to believe that the American dream of abundant prosperity for all was a hopeless myth." << this set, the horseface whatshername followers.

diana_coman: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-01-18#1956934 - successful build; haven't yet installed it, although there's a lenovo x200 unearthed for it.
ossabot: Logged on 2020-01-18 18:20:01 dorion: I got a positive response from the rEFInd fellow. Invited him to join #trilema.
whaack: lobbes: the reason for the above behavior is as follows: the start string "yesterday" gets matched. so yesterday becomes "<span style="background-color:#d3d3d3" id="select">yesterday" But there is no match for "Because we were talking". So trilema serves a <span> tag that does not properly close. The way most browsers handle this is to put an implicit </span> before the </p>
whaack: if the text one's selecting is all within a tag, then the selection tool will properly match. But if you cross a tag, like so, then the markup will interfere
whaack: the match for the selection tool is done on the source text, not the output text. "the improvement" does not match to 'the <a href="http://logs.ericbenevides.com/log/trilema-hanbot/2020-01-10#1000443" target="_blank">improvement'
lobbes: mircea_popescu: I think it's because the 'improvement' is within a href tag
ossabot: (ossasepia) 2020-01-17 jfw: bvt: left a reply to your Gales report but it's not showing to me even as in moderation. Did it make it to your queue?
dorion: bvt did you see jfw had some issue leaving a comment on your gales install report ?
ossabot: (ossasepia) 2020-01-17 diana_coman: jfw: fyi, I got around to build Gales and it seems to have built fine on a CentOS 6 with gcc 4.9.4; there was just a short wtf moment when the... tar cmd failed; it turns out that the --sort option is available only from tar V 1.28 while my local tar is ... 1.23; I didn't see any version spec in the prerequisites though probably my CentOS 6 is about as old everything as one gets nowadays

mircea_popescu: That's a Jew's harp on the table, that's a crayon in his hand... and the corners of the blueprint are ruined since they rolled far past the stems of thumbtacks that still throw shadows on the wood... and the skylight is like skin for a drum I'll never mend. And all the rain falls down
mircea_popescu: (conversely, of course, one could also wonder "what'd have come of that pet had her ower pointed out to her "look, this is the illustrated story of a woman your age who left behind a career a coupla notches higher than mine to be used properly." but, as the man says, it's never too fucking late. until they turn 30, of course, if you've not started fixing them by they time they tu
mircea_popescu: in other news, pretty great lobbes piece. my one curiosity is "what if this had come out back when, say, phf could still have read it", as a forinstance ; but then again as the man says : the next girls will be trained properly.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in wtf crazy shit, arbitrary chess. wanna play with "nullmage" instead of bishop ? go right ahead. maybe a teleport ? poison ?
mircea_popescu meanwhile re-reading http://trilema.com/2012/the-problem-of-too-much-money/ ; it shoots from history, from a point midway osama bin laden's decerebration strike on the us and today's redditard notion of "evil financial elites".
mircea_popescu: self-evident nonsense, i've yet to meet the lang without support for comments, and for as long as a single comment line's left anywhere that line will mandatorily read The Republic prevails.
mircea_popescu: as best i can retrospectively determined, it mostly flew from alf's principled stance on in-band comms that nobody rose to challenge so it sorta became a de-facto unexamined basis.
diana_coman: http://billymg.com/2020/01/mp-wp-patch-viewer-and-code-shelf/comment-page-1/#comment-75 - mircea_popescu, I never quite understood why detached sigs for vpatches in the first place; I kind of got the idea that it was so that there is no need for sync on signing (no possible clash of the sort A and B sign independently same thing and then one needs to re-sign so as not to end with 2 versions of same vpatch?)
billymg: mircea_popescu: left a reply
mircea_popescu: because that's why i do these sorts of things, so a few years later i can discover hurr durr etcetera. i might as well link fucking pantsuit sites, they purge their linkstructure every four years also.
mircea_popescu: so i'm about to quote http://trilema.com/2015/no-such-labs-releases-v-for-victory/ in a discussion with billymg ; except i discover the fucking http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2015-August/000151.html link is meanwhile broken.
mircea_popescu: i will want a full release ready to go concomitantly, so if your client isn't liable to be around then maybe deed it prior.
mircea_popescu: The GPG we inherited fucks clearsigned text blocks inside a larger text block being clearsigned as it is clearsigned for reasons that appear to be related to retardation. << well theoretically it's related to in-band signalling, but practically it was too hard to have a proper parser, take CLOSING signature as the signature, had to have 1step parser which "does not know what to do" if it encounters five dashes mid-documen
mircea_popescu: alright, so i can say that indeed 123.29494813‬ BTC is a legit claim as per all the foregoing discussion.

trinque: also good to know that gcc >4.7.4 incurs a c++ compiler in the bootstrap process. way, way better to have reasons for where we stop than "eh, I got tired and sat down here"
dorion: trinque html stripped from comment again, here's original : http://paste.deedbot.org/?id=3p4J
mircea_popescu: skip trying to buy a coupla shots for whatever rando hobag at the club next time, get yourself a working peripheral [see all the hobags in history naked-er and working it more excitedly anyways].
mircea_popescu: but the cost to replace that is minimal, i mean... oh, so your video card doesn't work no mo ? awww, splurge on 50 bux, which as per latest j-lo self-promotion 1hr long advertisement incomprehensibly packaged as "a movie" ain't even enough to START the moneycount.
bvt: dorion: in this case, picking 2.6 will not be a problem, of course
dorion: bvt wrt to newer hardware, did you see get a dozen or two alternatives, let the rest wither ?
dorion: mircea_popescu re seriousness, I know it'd be a helluva lot, but I don't imagine porting his work from 4.9.95 to 2.x isn't trivial either. I should've asked, comment how ?
mircea_popescu: between 2 and 4 the difference simply is "2 was a linux kernel, 4 is treasonable atrocity built atop 3, which is how you say '''mike hearn''' in linux"
ossabot: Logged on 2020-01-12 12:47:24 dorion: mircea_popescu in light of never moving off linux 2.x series, it seems to me bvt ought to port his rng work from 4.9.95 it currently sits on to 2.x.

ossabot: (eulora) 2020-01-10 mircea_popescu: in the end, we painfully and i suppose expensively re-traced a point that was well (and very cheaply) established by 2016 : "The dispositive concern wasn't that the codebases selected are good ; rather it was that they are merely very, very, veryveryVERY dirty ; whereas the supposed cleanner substitutes aren't actually any
mircea_popescu: incidentally, since trinque seems to have disappeared since http://trinque.org/2019/12/28/a-republican-os-part-1/#comment-136 : http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/eulora/2020-01-10#1001231 might be of interest.

BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, no. I mean there's a flavor of spam email now that says "I've been watching you jack off through your computer's webcam. Pay X USD to Y BTC address" where the address has never been paid before, but its always one out of the same same handful of addresses.
BingoBoingo: I'm thinking about how many folks Trump already rotated through his cabinet. If the biomass is of such poor quality that out of a third of a billion, Mike Pompeo is the best candidate for Madame Decretary... Wat do?
BingoBoingo: Great Again three years in might mean Albany has to revert to being some sort of frontier outpost, roughly a dozen in population.

dorion: <dorion> http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-01-08#1956674 << I returned to Panama Monday from travels and was quite jet lagged and sleep deprived. I was pleasantly surprised to have a lot of fun on the cruise, hawaii was a lot nicer than I expected.
BingoBoingo: Before I came to Uruguay I was somewhat inclined to that, but being here and seeing how the retards down here created their own Pantsuits... seems more like what follows from mass distribution of franchise. Mass culture develops, and it ain't much of a culture at all.
BingoBoingo: The few I've seen in the wild that notice this seem to mostly fall into the "Pop-culture was a KGB psyop" camp
mircea_popescu: i wonder if anyone to date's noticed the entire hsitory of pop culture, 1950-onwards, all the comics / superheroes / etc fiction is entirely an attempt at retelling that history in the proper (ie, alternate) form from a pantsuit point of view

diana_coman: spyked: I was subscribed to both articles and comments feed afaik; let me rummage through old logs as I prolly have another earlier !1 list and will give you a paste of it all.
spyked: diana_coman, could you plox send me a transcript of your convo with feedbot? I wanna cross-check with what I have on my side. I think I got why the messages got sent after you unsubscribed, but it's weird that all trilema.com feeds would get removed (were you previously subscribed to anything other than the comments feed?)

BingoBoingo: In US Uni Lulz https://archive.is/QAbe4 "UMaine's College Republicans asked for her oversight shortly thereafter, when their previous adviser moved to another state. She agreed, but didn't last long. Fried resigned after a month, saying she wanted to disassociate with UMaine College Republicans’ hardline anti-immigration stance and use of social media to "get a rise out of people.""

mircea_popescu: so apparently in php, != is a legitimate op in if expressions. = however, IS NOT. == MUST be used.
mircea_popescu: wanna see their local clean room ? 100% built out of straw and mudpies ? clean to 10 ppk standard! it's just like ppb only with a k.
ossabot: Logged on 2020-01-04 09:39:35 mircea_popescu: yeah, the more i think about it the more i'm persuaded : this is the problem, fellows got FIXED codecs, tryna apply them results in ~random noise within a few steps.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, made a proper one, delete the mangled.
diana_coman: so I'll fix that in a minute.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: your comment seems to have gotten somehow mangled and/or truncated (it has a part that repeats)?

hanbot: mircea_popescu: damned near. my tolerance for the sorta shit seems to have gone down. i need a hazmat suit or something (or a chill pill, heh).
mircea_popescu: apparently nature depends a lot more on ring buffers than anyone previously realised.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: that's why I find it funny; precisely because of this "it's so much further away than that, that we'll call it ...that; a sort of heat seeming cold and the other way around.
mircea_popescu: these dudes wanna talk about word salad ?! it's like some crow living atop the city dump "criticizes" suburbia for disorderliness. i dunno a whole year of recent logs packs as much salad as they manage to stuff in those 6k misfortunate words.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, it seems they're kinda stomping themselves over there, would-be #reddit alt-tmsr l1 is getting massacred in their attempt at creating a narrative. i guess it helps being persuasive, if you're gonna try and lord huh.
ossabot: Logged on 2020-01-04 05:38:15 mircea_popescu: because totally, this is how the pantsuit "sincere regret" device works : gmaxwell is "sincerely sorry" about his 2011 "business" in his mind only wasting a buncha people's coins, therefore "mp largely slinked off into the shadows after one of his crappy businesses disappeared with people's coins".
diana_coman: lolz; I'll go to see to the child for a bit.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: ^ is my current answer for that a) vs b) choice.
mircea_popescu: and so on ad nauseam, let's project all our issues on daddy, that'll totally build such a wunderbar world as nobody'll ever want to live in.
