mod6: i will denote that item 13 of the Ideological History of the Republic's second link is missing an 'h' in front of 'ttp..' link.
mod6: <+shinohai> "Really, Ubuntu legitimately contains enough stuff to cover many hundreds of walls with shelves ? " <<< couldn't agree more << indeed.
shinohai: I hadn't installed Ubuntu in forever until I started testing this stuff. It's maddening what a resource hog it is.
mod6: oh yeah. it's a wasteland.
mod6: mircea_popescu: in the context of an ideological history, I have nothing further to add. I'll denote that the recent progress of freezing trb's 3rd party deps, starting in the end of July, is signifigant, however covered by item #10 imho.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: it'll eat up to 4mb, lmk if you need more
ben_vulpes: aaand i have nfi what the story is with pingbacks
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: how would i use shiva to hook into the trb wallet functions?
☟︎ trinque: so, phf was the second after asciilifeform to have a key expire. we should probably discuss how this should be handled going forward.
☟︎ trinque: in alf's case I did --recv-key on same fingerprint when it happened, so same was done with phf's key
☟︎ trinque: my perspective is that the field is promisetronic in exactly the same manner as nlocktime
trinque: I don't see that it means a thing; control of private key is control of private key
ben_vulpes: fingerprint collisions can be purchased.
ben_vulpes: wouldn't one want to actually verify the key components and not just that sks coughed something up for a given fp?
trinque: ben_vulpes: given that, how do I know I got the right key the *first* time.
trinque: somebody put a fingerprint in someplace and then I asked hitler for it
ben_vulpes: user comes back around pretty quickly with a 'wtf' tho.

ben_vulpes: trinque: i say don't handle it, expiration is a ridiculous booby trap in gpg and updating is all sorts of fraught.
trinque: I have to run for a bit; I put the matter of how to handle this circumstance before the Lords.

mircea_popescu: trinque you know you got the "right" key the first time because the guy registered it ~prior~ to being anyone.
mircea_popescu: anyway ; expiring keys are a major fucking problem. i have personally no qualms whatsoever with simply depersoning anyone whose key expires.
mircea_popescu: not retroactively, of course, but hey - you want to expire your key, just fucking change it. BEFORE it "expires".
mircea_popescu: course i dunno if we even have support for this in deedbot
mircea_popescu: even the notion of "expire" as implemented in gpg.koch is nonsense. should be replaced with "disused", as in, "i took it out of deedbot and am not using it anymore"
mircea_popescu: i guess i should add this to my rsa key length article.

trinque: one, remove --recv-key entirely from deedbot; two, anyone whose key expires is a dead nick
trinque: mircea_popescu: yep I like that
mircea_popescu: and yes, once key expires the responsible party is fucked.
mircea_popescu: re recv-key, i dunno that you HAVE TO take it out ; but i'm certainly not against removing it.
trinque: asciilifeform: I thought I had not pulled your new key until after the old one's expiry, but I could be mistaken.
trinque: but at any rate, "I published to sks before old expired" is also broken.
trinque: mircea_popescu's change to !!register solves it
mircea_popescu: trinque also possibly force any !!register to an existing name to happen in the chan only, no pms

mircea_popescu is surprised to discover the dude is neither vaguely black nor approximately female. seriously, somebody who's surprisingly not a minority is going to get somewhere ?
mircea_popescu: "When 2008 Republican nominee John McCain on Saturday withdrew his endorsement of Mr. Trump, that left 1996 nominee Bob Dole as the only living GOP nominee backing Mr. Trump." ahahaha epic.
mircea_popescu: "The one figure who might help keep Republicans unified during this most challenging time is the Democratic nominee. Though Mrs. Clinton’s approval ratings have hovered slightly above Mr. Trump’s, she is one of the least popular presidential nominees in modern history."
mircea_popescu: "Inside the tower on Saturday, different plans of action were discussed. Mr. Trump and his advisers considered a joint television interview that he and Ms. Trump would give to a major network, an echo of the 1992 appearance by the Clintons on “60 Minutes” after Gennifer Flowers claimed that she had had an affair with Mr. Clinton. The deliberations over a possible interview were moving ahead despite Ms. Trump’s lack of i

mircea_popescu: In a statement released after the now-infamous “Access Hollywood’’ tape, Melania Trump said the words her husband used “are unacceptable and offensive to me” but do not “represent the man I know. He has the heart and mind of a leader.” << bwahahaha.
mircea_popescu: "In our time, women have been gaining political power as never before. There are (by my count) 17 female presidents and prime ministers around the world today. Sixty-three of the world’s countries have now had at least one female head of government or state in the past half century. But it’s not the fact of their being female that is important, so much as the feminine style today’s female leaders have brought to politic
mircea_popescu: s. The powerful women of the 1970s and 1980s — Indira Gandhi, Golda Meir, Margaret Thatcher — were iron ladies, famous (metaphorically speaking) for having more cojones than the average male politician. By contrast, the female leaders of our time are not just female; they are also feminine." << check it out, msm dork actually gets it!
mircea_popescu: the fucking problem isn't that they're women, it's that they're idiots. this is intolerable, irrespective of what the circlejerk may tell itself.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: and his example (merkel ; esp as seen in how she ruined germany to soak up the net result of usg's terrorism) is well chosen, too. "feminine" politics, leadership and everything else is two notches below suicide.
mircea_popescu: "Around 81 percent of American households, according to a recent McKinsey study, experienced flat or falling incomes between 2005 and 2014." << in NOMINAL terms. with > 15% inflation per annum this means that 81% of the people who were employed in 2005 make ABOUT A QUARTER today of what trhey made back then.
mircea_popescu: ie, without the government of us going abroad and borrowing to give freebies to the population (much like the govt of argentina did a decade prior), the housing of the average fambly would have went from 1600 sqft to 400sqft in this past decade.

danielpbarron: >> In the salvation of God, "there is neither male nor female" (Galatians 3:28). No distinction is made between Jew and Greek, slave or free, male or female, but all the children of God are one in Christ (Galatians 3:26-28). The forgiveness and grace of God is upon all who believe. But, when it comes to God's established order of authority, there is a difference between slave and free, male and female.
danielpbarron: >> Although God has in the past placed women in authority over men (e.g. Judges 4:4), and even today the Lord places women in authority over men (e.g. Romans 13:1), this is nonetheless a shameful reality, as Isaiah illustrates.
jhvh1: danielpbarron: [KJV] Isaiah 3:12 :: As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.
☟︎ danielpbarron: >> The fact that Israel had women ruling over them was a shameful thing, just as it was shameful that children were their oppressors. Israel was weak, trapped in their sin. Consequently, women ruled over them.
danielpbarron: >> The Lord did not design men to have women rule over them. He designed men to rule over women. "The head of woman is man" (1 Corinthians 11:3), and "Adam was formed first, then Eve" (1 Timothy 2:13). This is why women are to be submissive (1 Corinthians 14:34). God has placed men as the authority (head) over women, and therefore they need to submit to this authority. Moreover, this authority was established from the very beginnin
