mircea_popescu: and ftr this mentoring session in hardware fucking has been a treat to watch :D
BingoBoingo: I was applying a healthy dose of priviledge to my lawn today and the idea came to me.
shinohai: I have the privilege of having no lawn of my own to dose.
BingoBoingo: Well you're in Georgia. You would have the unenviable task of neighbors trying to grow lawn cancer.
☟︎ shinohai: In Georgia, the epitome of great lawncare is seeing how many dilapidated cars you can have sitting on cinder blocks.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 four tickets eh ? great month. << ya, thanks!
adlai: asciilifeform: how much value is there in getting the Gizmo Explorer as a first educational toy in this field, given that I currently have no idea what to do with it other than pilling and whatever else you suggest?

thestringpuller: I'm srsly tempted to pull a Danny Glover in "Good Fences" and burn their house down.

adlai: cool, i'll see if my tulpas can crowdfund this
mircea_popescu: guy writes trading bot, spends half his time explaining how mpex is broken because he's making a living, has to crowfund a probe. nuts.
mircea_popescu: adlai post an address, i'll send you a coupla hundred so you can buy it and do something useful with yourself.
adlai: i thought i had to terraform my tits on eulora for free money?
mircea_popescu: in totally uninteresting anecdote, back in the 80s i was chiefly speaking romanian, and in romanian the bad guys = us (uniunea sovietica) ; the good guys su (statele unite). thirty years later...
shinohai: +adlai cool, i'll see if my tulpas can crowdfund this <<< alice_ might like to have a word with you
adlai: why is pisa so tilted!
shinohai: Coinbase tx's are notoriously slow I think they manually process I dunno. I'm banned from there.
shinohai: But bitpay invoices have a 15 minute window
shinohai: so naturally it makes sense to pay from a wallet you control, or it does to me anyway
thestringpuller: bitpay is scam. everyone i know who works there has turned up scammer.
thestringpuller: dunno their kyc scam yet, (more subtle than coinbase), but i'll find it.

jurov: if (getpid() == 1) umask(0);
mircea_popescu: took a while to find. makes a nice counterpoint for all the 2kb long ones
mircea_popescu: in which we find that <blockquote style="word-wrap:break-word;"> doesn't work. because why would it!
mircea_popescu: in which we also find that <blockquote><div style="word-wrap:break-word;"> als dun work. because why the fuck would anything work.

shinohai: The joys of listening to your neighbors buy crystal meth using your sdr dongle
shinohai: !~google how much does an eight-ball of meth cost ?
shinohai: well, said "Hey lenny u got an eight-ball?"
shinohai knows of no other drug in local dialect referred to by that unit of measure
mircea_popescu: originally i thought it was coke and speed that came in 1/8 oz
shinohai: Sign needs qr and "Monero accepted" at the bottom
mircea_popescu: they're pretty great to watch ; sort-of like spending some time with the "the official transcaucasia puskin poetry club" and their literary criticism of last year's literary mags.
mircea_popescu: (amusingly enough, he looks almost exactly like lavror, same no-chin cocksucker bugman)
shinohai: Colombians reject peace deal with FARC. Dis gonna be interesting.
