lobbes: http://logs.bvulpes.com/pizarro?d=2018-6-2#366691 << Since there seems to be some angst and confusion here on -why- I negrated the mouse in question, let me try to clarify. I had 0 problems (even liked the d00d) before he decided to turn his games of "I am butthurt because I suffered what I see as great injustice, so let me bitch and try to manipulate from the sidelines" (i.e old woman games) onto lobbes. I simply -have no time- for such insanity

a111: Logged on 2014-02-13 01:00 asciilifeform: fact is, 'carding' could disappear overnight if the card issuers wished it. (even in countries with ubiquitous old-style magnetic readers. devices which present the correct magnetism, using one-time account #s, are trivial.)

asciilifeform also fan of old persians, but reads'em in ru transl, his persian-fu being laughably weak at present time

a111: Logged on 2018-05-13 16:14 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-13#1812861 << observe how ~all~ farming in usa, was put under 'soft kolhoz' by fdr ( and at exactly same time, and for same reasons, as in old su into 'proper' kolhoz) and nobody alive today remembers any other kind of farming

mircea_popescu: at least their fathers knew listening to talk radio in the car was BECAUSE THEIR LIFE SUCKS. these schmucks listen to it in their "spare" time, and don't even go to the trouble of ~selecting~ a moron to uuhhh and aaahhh melifluously, no, any old dweeb will do.

asciilifeform at one time tried to get ( old meat colleague ) b00lcrap, to try this, but i think he drinks nao

mircea_popescu: in the case of trilema, for instance, the db serving articles FROM YESTERDAY OR EARLIER ONLY, ie, 86400000000 microseconds old, is still 99% of the job done. cuz most of the time you're not even using it for "the latest", and even if there is a latest in any meaningful sense it's many millions / billions / trillions microseconds old anyway.

jhvh1: danielpbarron: [KJV] Matthew 5:27 :: Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

mircea_popescu: (fun facts for the recently born : 1. most old zx-80 clone programs were games, whether you count by titles, or by total cpu time, or any other way ; 2. they did not return (mostly because to make a good one you had to fuck the kernel space, that zx80 shit was tight), you pressed the reset button to load the next item on the tape.

shinohai: I dont want to bring the old bot back tbh, new one isn't finished. But will log into shell and restart for the 500th time shortly

freakyfractal: had some time.. was lookin for an old friend

mircea_popescu: can't you call any of the old time folk in the us ?

mircea_popescu: (note, btw, the old link still resolves. and will, till the end of time. at no cost to me.)

asciilifeform: old-time su had ~ideal cars/m^2 .

deedbot: mircea_popescu rated copumpkin 1 at 2012/04/01 22:17:41 << Old hand. Long time, no see.

lobbes: Was only there where I actually took apart old 90's machines, saw and held motherboards, connected power supplied, and interfaced with DOS. if only for a short time.

BingoBoingo: Being in LATAM and full of gringo confidence I slacked on my recovery. Going forward the talking to pretty girls time budget is going to have to take some cuts to make more room for talking to old men about feelings.

mircea_popescu: anyway, you're on to something here douchebag ; work on it, with serious dedication, by the time you're as old as the rest of these guys you'll prolly be more valuable than them.

phf: this is the first time i actually got to witness the entirety of the ritual (accidentally the cafe was in front of patch of grass, and i guess it was sufficiently cold that old ladies didn't want to go all the way to the park)

asciilifeform: ^ old-time crackpot, occasional reader of asciilifeform's www

asciilifeform: the old behaviour was indefensibly insane, wtf, why is boot time 'special', for fuck's sake.

BingoBoingo: First they make mantadory annoyance broadcast in old country when children go missing, now: "The FCC recently announced a new alert program called "Blue Alert" that will notify the public of threats to law enforcement in real time. "With the creation of a dedicated Blue Alert event code in the Emergency Alert System, state and local law enforcement will have the capability to push immediate warnings out to the public via broadcast,

a111: Logged on 2017-12-18 02:05 mircea_popescu recalls somewhat fondly old days of "put the model in and wait a few hours for to find out how you fucked it up this time"

mircea_popescu recalls somewhat fondly old days of "put the model in and wait a few hours for to find out how you fucked it up this time" ☟︎

mircea_popescu: ran into this lots of times, most chicks are smokers, and most "can't" have a smoke like normal people without turning into their old x packs a day habit over time.

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> other team's cheerleader bus, au naturel. exactly what teh airmen meant by "tailhookers all weather attack" fliers dumped on area colleges. << An appeal of hanging out with the old drunks in recovery is that their time drinking often seems a sort of cultural cosmoline.

asciilifeform: because wtf, it isn't worth ~my~ time to catalogue every old toaster in the kitchen, and everypiece of dead tree rubbish that one could get for fiddycents from 'bookfinder' etc

asciilifeform: i could think of worse things to be than 'time capsule' of old roman periphery tho.

asciilifeform: pete_dushenski ( ben_vulpes ? other old-time crapplists ? ) ever saw open the battery on these ? what kind of cells ?

a111: Logged on 2017-10-29 17:52 diana_coman: iirc the "old centre" has been renovated during past few years and it looked ok, but it's relatively small; many of the relics of former glory have either been demolished long time ago or otherwise are left to crumble

diana_coman: iirc the "old centre" has been renovated during past few years and it looked ok, but it's relatively small; many of the relics of former glory have either been demolished long time ago or otherwise are left to crumble ☟︎

mircea_popescu: this is how moldovan philology goes 90% of the time, too : they preserved an old thing, generally older than muscovy, rather than import it.

mircea_popescu: and in other (lengthy) lulz : i cursed new girl with the old mpoe-pr curse, if you haven't guessed by now. the tardstalk this time is "black hat world", dedicated to "seo" and shit.

asciilifeform: and would need a 'year 0' where old logs before time T dun get parsed by tagfinder

asciilifeform: one time, in 2000s, asciilifeform bought a mk61 classic sov calculator from a d00d in ru. came in, noshit, old-school wooden crate, everything intact, manuals, etc. BUT the power brick -- snippycutted off.

mircea_popescu: "regulatory compliance" it's called in-universe. but in practice, they're exactly like the old time soviet govt entreprises.

mircea_popescu: this lulzy property of bitcoin. "all time high" moar like "old time high"

asciilifeform: as for the peculiar iron box and led display, it's a straight rework of old sov calc chassis, which is telltale evidence of when item was designed : '80s, the last time anything interesting happened in orcistan.

asciilifeform: but asciilifeform's research is several yrs old, the last time he turned down various 'come to sf' nonsense

asciilifeform: one time asciilifeform went into a demolition site, found newspapers from 'watergate' in the spaces between old cinderblocks, yes.

asciilifeform: mod6: amusingly, if you ~did~ have a big enough and old enough universe to contain primorial(2**4096), you could factor, e.g., mircea_popescu's key, in polynomial time, with plain old gcd

a111: Logged on 2017-07-13 15:18 phf: for the longest time i thought that common lisp spec is a magic paper against modernization. not so, and you can see it with the recent evolution of sbcl. for example they made it an error to locally shadow cl package symbols, e.g. (flet ((first (...))) ...) will fail, breaking a lot of reasonable old code. many historic idioms likewise produce compilation warnings, etc.

phf: it's funny because by the time tattoo crazy started there was already enough old people with tattoos that both had the almost uniform "i made terrible mistakes" attitude and very much were self-evident personification of the sentiment. and then i guess there was a new generation planning on never getting old (or changing in any way)

asciilifeform: in old-time su, when auto aficionados all had access to a pit, they could

mircea_popescu: (such as colonna, more or less source of the old guy in http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=un+prophete ; at his conviction in 2012 the french equivalent of a federal court gave reasoning for its sentence, for the first time in french legal practice. cuz empire wanna be part of euroland.)

mircea_popescu: by the time it'll be 5 years old, like the "we should have isp expert" thing is, we'll have it just as solved as the isp thing is solved.

BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20170718/#143 << they're already 'eltsining' to death , with the good old bottle, no fancy dope needed necessarily << Not really, cars are too safe nowadays. With crumple zones it is hard to die as a drunk driver and the other alcoholic deaths take time. Also many of them ain't wired right to properly drink selves to death. Somehow their brains signal "drunk enough" and then they stop, I have no

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-13#1682405 << bwahahaha. teh old girlfriend is approaching 30, is she, time for a new one. ☝︎

BingoBoingo: Anyways, old people use buckwheat in USia as a magic totem of "pls let me shit just one more time"

asciilifeform: ( there is an old thread where mircea_popescu mentions it; asciilifeform at one time also used )

sina: either that or I can re-comment, you can delete the old ones and then fix whatever <pre> stuff you did last time

trinque: heh, bringing up these old window managers reminds me of a more optimistic time in re: computing in my youth

trinque: I think phf is right in pointing to old debian cd sets as dep time capsules.

Framedragger: trinque: while at it i'll just mention that mine still doesn't have teh old ratings, not that i need them any time soon, just adding to the list. god knows my own list is long :(

pete_dushenski: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-14#1655830 << speaking of throttles, 'car throttle' was started at the same time as my old car site by a very entrepreneurial brown brit by the name of adnan ebrahim. we used to email back and forth in those early, uncertain days and we met up in london in 2014 for a few drinks. he obviously went the vc-route and has done very well by the metrics of that world, certainly better ☝︎

asciilifeform: also ftr imho 'sync in the wild' is a waste of time, it simply doesn't work, 'wild' contains ~no nodes that actually serve old blox on request.

asciilifeform: fwiw in november of this yr it will be 10y old. and down time to date cumulative is approx 30 hrs.

ben_vulpes: http://logs.bvulpes.com/trilema?d=2017-4-30#bb66f450-218d-4f54-88d8-6fb65645d474 << so given that the difference would be that the old auto_ptr didn't have shared semantics and that the unique_ptr does but they're never used because they weren't available at the time, i don't expect grief to come of it.

Framedragger: (then again, when i boarded a 1st class train to berlin in the morning after ~6h overnight crawl with no time to change clothes, i was seen as a wildman (unkempt beard at the time, too), scared some old german ladies. "megafun" for certain definitions lol)

mircea_popescu: by the time any one shows signs of competence and possible maturation into systemic threat, they... disappear. to leave the room for yet another inept sixteen year old and his "crew" with "three years experience".

a111: Logged on 2014-05-26 21:42 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: reminds me of a time when i stowed some stuff in plastic garbage bags, then discovered they were... biodegradable. turned to astonishing quantity of dust. when vacuuming old flat, found fragments - years after the fact.

mod6: naw, I gave up on gentoo for the time being, and just used a old deb build machine i've got laying around.

phf: debian comes closest to what would be considered "proper" in tmsr terms. the package archive is curated, the source is fully owned by the package author, etc. you can still grab old debian 10cd sets and have the entire slice of linux computing from the time

mircea_popescu: “Seventeen years old is obviously older, but at the same time it doesn’t make anything right,”

a111: Logged on 2017-03-10 18:24 asciilifeform: Framedragger: there was old thread with mircea_popescu , where he stated that usg and china attempted it at same time, and perma-deadlocked

mircea_popescu: anyway, there's an old time bitcoin scammer that keeps pushing these

asciilifeform: (alternatively, could require that a tx include a 'i want to live in block N' value at birth! and if it doesn't get into N, it is invalid for all time. but this would have serious engineering tradeoff, 'canned' txen as discussed in old mircea_popescu article would be impossible.)

mircea_popescu: dumb old bitty has no problem taking half hour of doctor's time to whine about her dog's feelings ; dumb bahamas from kenya has no problem droning at the navy about "climate change" and other being-a-superhero idiocies.

a111: Logged on 2017-02-04 08:06 phf: so i was inspired by tmsr in 2014 to send out my gpg pubkey to a bunch of services that i use. most places simply ignored it, but today it paid off with the epic uptime machine. all i had to do was to point at an old email, pubkey in /root/ and send a signed request for a ssh pubkey replacement to recover a machine in barely amount of time it took to send three emails

asciilifeform: this is one of those items whose lack will be sorely felt every time sane folx go on a burst of Reading Old Code

mod6: <+asciilifeform> mod6: wtf means 'root and leaf at the same time' << in the old code, it is a root, because it has no antecedents, and it is a leaf because it also has no descendants.

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.

pete_dushenski: podesta et al. might even have what it ~took~ to run the world of their formative years, but meanwhile time marched on and they've now wandered far, far from home. similarly, god help the lot of us in 30-40 years. don't forget just how old these team clitler fogies are either.

a111: Logged on 2016-12-30 17:56 mircea_popescu: jurov no ; but i am fine with wwwtron ocasionally reading a field that has meanwhile been updated, and giving old, of an unspecified age but less than x time.

mircea_popescu: jurov no ; but i am fine with wwwtron ocasionally reading a field that has meanwhile been updated, and giving old, of an unspecified age but less than x time. ☟︎

jurov was for some time making money basically by reading 10y old perl, too...

pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: it was a time of 'progress'. old traditions had to be downgraded. ex nihilo 'traditions' upgraded.

mircea_popescu: old folks as in bio age i usually have an easy enough time with ; young folks who aspire to be employed however are aged beyond their age, like touched by the fucking vorlons.

mircea_popescu: one time, the dad of this chick (/me is very old school, always insisted in meeting the parents of all molls) asked me if i have serious intentions. so i asked him if she's a virgin.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the conclusion is, 2k+ txn blocks took significant time on old clients ; and this made them exceed the 10min magic delay and trip an alert.

asciilifeform: not a single time that i bought a new panel with 2-3x the density of the old one, did i NOT have to change my emacs font

mircea_popescu: https://archive.is/MeGTJ#selection-3405.0-3405.38 << Biljana Djurdjevic, if anyone gives a shit. just old enough at the time of the troubles to have involuntarily participated in the ass trade, except of course for the happenstance she was born in belgrade not sarajevo

phf: i found an old screenshot from last time i was hacking on clim :D http://glyf.org/screenshots/clim.png

pete_dushenski is trying new synagogue this year for first time ever. had to make move because rabbi > congregation, just as king > kommoonitee, and old joint lost rabbi because small-time.

mircea_popescu: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160920/#143 << i have no idea ; mp-wp would handle it automatically (in the sense that i can at any time / for any reason change url, old one gets redir to new one ; and also can switch from ?p= to proper title url seamlessly). no idea however about alf-wp

phf: from now on i'm working on mp-wp, full time, a shell of a man. you can point newcomers at an old shambling figure, "that's phf. he's tending our flower bed"

mircea_popescu: "I'm a 23 year old female who believes in all things kinky. I have major breeding fantasies, and have had multiple children already, all whom I have given up for adoption. I'm helping the world and being a slut all at the same time." << deeze internets.

BingoBoingo: lol, next time I gotta make the "candidates are old" declaration in press will have to wheel that out.

asciilifeform: <mircea_popescu> god damned it, now i'm gonna have to fish out old logs for a yet another time ? grrr. << the cure is that infrastructural items oughta be published.

mircea_popescu: god damned it, now i'm gonna have to fish out old logs for a yet another time ? grrr.

thestringpuller: well old mentor of mine found sleep to be his number one enemy. so he decided to just be on stimulants 24/7 and sleep minimally while staying up late programming assembly code or some non-sense. d00d is as insane as he is smart. okay anyhow he bought this condo, and at the time he was a Ph.D candidate and was like "Meth is awesome I hate sleep!"

mircea_popescu: look for any time i typoed a title. the old url still works.

mircea_popescu: then again i spent some time dripping wax on bare tits in 5 century old euro churches, also.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: every time i go to a junk shop, the kind with profusion of old photo gear - and that's ~all junk shops, incl. the ones i went to in b-a : i think of how the camera was in some ways the pc of its day : 1,001 vendors cranking out 'us, too'

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-21#1507911 << fwiw i destroyed my eyes with b00kz, the old-fashioned way, before i got to spend any serious time with machinery ☝︎
