shinohai doesn't have one yet, but imagined he could run this from bench power supply ?
mircea_popescu: not like djb is going to come to his senses and have "his employees" "phd students" beat you to it.
shinohai wonders if asciilifeform has nightmares of Hanno Bock cracking all his moduli .....
shinohai: Possibly reside in imagination?
CompanionCube wonders what the best key(s) to get phuctored would be. USG/NSA''s? Intel/AMD's signing keys?
shinohai: "Con TMSR nunca te irás para casa sin rodar aunque te caigas o llueva"

BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well tomorrow I guess I'll have to spend my guess on Liberia.
mircea_popescu: shinohai lmao. historically, the stupid poor always tried to "direct" others.
shinohai: If someone makes it to the end, lemme know what happened. It almost induced a seizure in me.
BingoBoingo: Lesson of the day: The hardest part of buying paint is browising through color chips to find one that doesn't have a faggy name.
shinohai feels bad he made a post that made asciilifeform sleep and possible dream of Hanno Bock
CompanionCube: lol. 'We will place Bitcoin under our control in the most devious way possible... We will optimize it, we will make it efficient, scalable, decentralized to the extreme. We will make it private and fungible, we will gurarantee that it is completely uncensorable anywhere in the world... the idiots will never see it coming'

trinque: someone was proud of this.
trinque: relatedly, two separate bums asked for money when I was fueling a very nice truck just now.
trinque: the first tried to touch me, so I told him to fuck off. the second kept his distance, so I helpfully let him know he should manage his money better.
BingoBoingo: It's Texas. He who has the truck makes the rules.
trinque: so offer to pump my gas for me while I sit on my mobile throne. I might throw a couple bucks.
trinque: nah, one wants to shake hands like he's someone and the other rambles nonsense about helping da youf
BingoBoingo: Tell them if they jump in the back, you'll give em $30 to help you shovel a load of manure in, and they can pick their destination once the truck's loaded.
trinque: at least he has the dignity that the job he doesn't have pays a living waeg!!!11
trinque: seriously, I once considered starting some kind of labor camp where you bus these guys in and just have 'em toil on whatever
trinque: before taking another 30sec and considering the labor laws involved
trinque: limbs rotting off under an overpass is way better
BingoBoingo: Seriously trinque creative guy like you could prolly find a use for a couple cubic yards of manure. There has to be a courthouse nearby.
trinque: I did not properly record my lol at that idea.
trinque: it's pretty damn excellent
BingoBoingo: If a bum want's money he's for hire. If he doesn't want your wage for doing your work, the bum can get fucked. Hence Bumfucked.
BingoBoingo: A lord is not obligated to challenge a bum's pleas for cash with trabajo, but a lord is welcome to.

a111: Logged on 2017-03-31 05:44 ben_vulpes: stored empty under the bridge
mircea_popescu: for the other thing, leaving aside the whole "pvc doesn't actually burn hot enough to melt bridge" - suppose it's 16 inch schedule 80 pipe. that means 30 or so meters per ton, but it also means that if you store ten pipes on the ground (4 meters wide, this), with nine on top followed by eight on 3rd level etc you get five levels of that per two meters height. pvc is about 40 MJ/kg, the arrangement would yield 10+9+8+7+6 = 40m
☟︎ mircea_popescu: total worth of pipe under any meter of bridge worth maaaybe 50-60 GJ/meter over however long they take to burn, half hour or such. even unventilated, what's that supposed to do ? next we're going to hear rpo-a shmel can take out us bridges an' shit.
mircea_popescu: (to be clear : this isn't an argument in the vein of "what happened didn;t happen", but merely an observation that the item must have been VERY poorly maintained for the collapse to occur. that it's being sold as disaster is very much in the vein of the 1923 "palace of established happiness" fire : the eunuchs dun really want anyone to see how much they've stolen, so there was a... fire.)

Framedragger: ^ could be useful (obvs would be even more useful to replicate all that data and own it (so to speak))
Framedragger: but also a useful reminder that scanz done here are not original, and it's not an instance of "this was done before, whoops no data to show there." (ironically took a look at censys.io due to
https://eprint.iacr.org/2015/262.pdf (hanno boeck's article))
shinohai: The deceitful shitbag strikes again.
Framedragger: i'm not convinced he lied (NOT TROLLING/BAITING) :D i think he may have just been daft, and expecting to be taken seriously when saying "oh i did dis. look an article"
Framedragger: i'll search later but if you have references handy, would be helpful and would read
shinohai chose to wait for asciilifeform and not take the bait
shinohai: Write tool for skids, get blamed for their havoc.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform get a load of this : kids get examined EVERY YEAR.
mircea_popescu: it's exam time whole city is full of kids all ages (jr high even!!) walking to exam centers
shinohai: Goddamnit I ALMOST SAID Costa Rica yesterday ....
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nah. ten years increased the size significantly.
mircea_popescu: actually i was thinking, im not going to hold another conference, because it's just not a sane opsec proposition. however, one fellow at a time coming down for a week or somesuch is more than tenable. what's airfare, fiddy bux ? pack up the missus an' come say hi.
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there's this distinct clicking colibris make when they come for the first morning drink.
mircea_popescu: i wonder if anyone tried pouring some honey on the things. maybe they were just aiming for colibri ?!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there's many different kinds of them. these are dark blue.
mircea_popescu: Framedragger nice info dump that censys.io thing though
mircea_popescu: full port is slow and expensive though. "Censys collects data on hosts and websites through daily ZMap and ZGrab scans of the IPv4 address space, in turn maintaining a database of how hosts and websites are configured."
mircea_popescu: you'd prolly need 4k machines to do full port scans daily
mircea_popescu: my only problem is that they use google groups. had they had an irc room i'd have dropped by. a well.

mircea_popescu: wait. do you mean YOU got zika fever and can't travel, or do you mean costa rica has it ?
mircea_popescu: (believe it or not this was on mp's list of things for the scouts to look out for. not because of any disease per se but because i can't fucking stand the buggers.)
mircea_popescu: may be a problem down by the beach ? (humans live way up in the mountain here)
ben_vulpes: plus viral, so big fat ? on how long it hangs around
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: imposes a great big fucking weight on a man's pocketbook, above and beyond the typical spawn
mircea_popescu: "As of W5 2017, 1`722 confirmed cases of Zika have been reported in Costa Rica. As of W50 2016, the cantons reporting the highest cumulative rate per 10`000 population are Garabito(289), Orotina (266), and Esparza(235)."
mircea_popescu: seems it peaked at 550 confirmed cases in august 2016 and is down to ~50 suspected cases by feb.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes anyway, so bring the fixed ones ; or give it a few weeks, either way.
ben_vulpes: not doing a lot of travel for the next few years for obvious reasons
mircea_popescu: the thing is supposed to be an amenity not an inconvenience at any rate.
ben_vulpes: nono, i'd love to! 'twould be a riot! i am just exceptionally lazy

mircea_popescu: the beach goes to both atlantic and pacific though, and the mountain's really a volcano, but anyway
ben_vulpes: i would very much like to piss into both oceans on the same day

ben_vulpes: the jet-turbine-powered motorbike of cats
mircea_popescu: but there's a general "This place is too fucking cool to sleep" vibe, and besides -- no one may claim they've had fruit before having them in cr. whole different ballgame re what ripe actually means.
mircea_popescu: oh, and also, as the latest addition to trilema headerspace may attest, i look strapping in a panama hat!
shinohai: I have the tied up girl too ... perfect for my guests earlier.
shinohai: I see you have traded the machete for an umbrella.
shinohai hopes it shoots poison darts .....

mircea_popescu: tzetze is one of the most effectual human repellants. there's a large area of verdant africa which stays that way because neither cattle nor obamas can live there.

ben_vulpes regards the fireproof lockbox of stamps sadly
ben_vulpes: i thought this was how warren buffet got rich
mircea_popescu: here's some random lul : wolbachia is possibly the most successful bacteria ; in any case is the most widely distributed sexual transmitted disease ; about half of all insects extant carry some form ; many species can't reproduce if uninfected, or cant' even survive.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: ONE of the things wolbachia does is... feminize! (because sperm can't carry it, only females do). so it makes these feminine or pseudo-feminine male insects.
mircea_popescu: considering how poorly understood infection is, i wonder how many of the contemporaneous faux males are actually biologically infected with dumbass rather than just genetically unfit.
jhvh1: shinohai: The operation succeeded.
mircea_popescu: and it also provides drm! infected males can't reproduce with disease-free females (or females infected by other strains).
