mircea_popescu: oh shit, 2.2k linmes today . no wonder the log seemed endless.
mircea_popescu: yo Birdman everyone's looking for you like the 2nd coming in eulora on account of those recipes.
Birdman: Ah, i'd been inactive as there wasnt anything i could do until i get my bank roll up
mircea_popescu: talk to danielpbarron or diana or something

BingoBoingo wonder what interest there would be for physical media containing a WoT attested Blockchain shipped. Rates roughly 0.3 BTC for the media and shipping prices 4 BTC to 400 BTC depending on where the media needs shipped
BingoBoingo: Expensive shipping, because simplest chain of custody is WoT member hand delivers
asciilifeform: shinohai et al: i keep waiting for that magical day when these fakes become something like the real thing in the sense of having an embedded wireless nic, silently storing blocks in 'cloud' somewhere
asciilifeform: it'll be quite like a real drive, but slower, cheaper
asciilifeform: as i understand this presently exists as a deliberately-crafted commercial product, used in cameras. but picture if it were picked up by cn artisans of flimflam
asciilifeform: it will be quite the ideal nsatron
asciilifeform: perhaps even sold openly: 'buy this bottomless drive!'
shinohai: Remember cn already has the usb chargers that call home
asciilifeform: shinohai: i keep looking for this, because it'd make a glorious esp8266 substitute
asciilifeform: but somehow they only ever get sold to folks who aren't me
asciilifeform: ditto the famous teapot
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: 4 BTC to 400 for shipping ?! what do you intend to use, ballistic rocket ?
shinohai: Should I stumble upon an example I will gladly hip it to you.
shinohai: *ship
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: 4 BTC to 400 for shipping ?! what do you intend to use, ballistic rocket ? << Self + vehicles
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: what is the purpose of this? i mean, you can transmit a pgp sig and post the disk
BingoBoingo: Minimum could probably go lower for exceedingly local deliveries
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Purpose is anyone who doesn't want to mess with wires at all.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: l0l! what would this fella use for a node ? gurlz with pencils ?
shinohai: !s EK-928-C
assbot: 0 results for 'EK-928-C' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=EK-928-C
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Maybe?
BingoBoingo: Price is kinda to filter out people who wouldn't use girls with pencils
asciilifeform: at the risk of repeating myself, shipping blockchains is sad.
asciilifeform: the thing is supposed to sync itself, that is part and parcel of how bitcoin is meant to work.
asciilifeform: every full node is rightfully a walk through all of history
asciilifeform: if it isn't, it is rather like merely an expensive sort of 'sybil'

asciilifeform: shinohai: if you're not a schoolboy, avoid the 89.
asciilifeform: it is ~identical~ to the 92 but has no qwerty
asciilifeform: 92 is ~25 usd surplus.
shinohai: O.o
asciilifeform: believe or not, they let u.s. schoolchildren use '89' on exams.
asciilifeform: but not 92.
asciilifeform: somehow, automagically doing most of symbolic manipulations through sophomore uni maths or so, is a-ok, but oh noez, keyboard could be used to... what?
asciilifeform: save questions from exam for crib sheet?
asciilifeform: it never made sense to me.

mod6: had 22 plants haha.
mod6: 60 days of melons tho, that's some fortitude right there.
analmaster: i can do it next year. i just have to stagger my planting
analmaster: tomatoes are prolific. zucchinis even more so
analmaster: how did u get only 2
analmaster: squash beetles?
mod6: apparently, "asian beetles" or something. they were fucking all over the leaves of the cukes, zucchs and rasberries. little bastards.
analmaster: oh
analmaster: where do u live
analmaster: do u mean
analmaster: jappanese beetles?
mod6: yeah, im up near minneapolis
analmaster: ah, u mean new syria
mod6: yah, aha.
analmaster: i also get raped by the japp beetles. my suggestion, every morning ( and night during peak season) take a hand heled vacuum and suck them off
analmaster: hand hield hitler
asciilifeform: good marketing name for a vacuum
analmaster: lol
mod6: not a bad idea. ima try that next year if I see 'em. year before didn't see any!
analmaster: they are slowing taking over our country.
asciilifeform: 'dirt devil' is a snore. 'handheld hitler' is a sure winner.
mod6: ^
analmaster: i would buy a handheld hitler for sure. will leave no stone unturned in search for the filth.
analmaster: the beetles just left my back yard a few weeks back.
analmaster: you can cover ur plants if u have few enough

mod6: <+analmaster> why boxes << oh, yeah it is im sure, but i heard that if you're short on horizontal planting space, you can do the boxes and get them to grow vertically so you can produce more in a smaller space. maybe I'm wrong though?
analmaster: nope your right
analmaster: its recommended you 'hill' your potatoes when they are in the ground
