deedbot: Mocky voiced for 30 minutes.
Mocky: deedbot was answering my !!help but not !!up, eventually came thru 5 minutes later with multiple responses
trinque: I'm not taking any more responsibility for freenode than any of you.
trinque: it has been a waste of my time to investigate every instance of this, always ending up with "bot thought it was connected, was not"
a111: Logged on 2018-09-03 18:01 asciilifeform: trinque: fleanode puts 5min delays in your path ?! ( i'll believe , but haven't yet seen this wonder with own eyes )
trinque: somebody's going to have to give me logs then, instead of vague complaints
mircea_popescu: trinque you want logs of freenode being an unreliable pos ?!
trinque: I thought you were saying deedbot
mircea_popescu: i put in the more egregious ones, such as "timeout 260 seconds" coming BEFORE a message and such nonsense. but really...
mircea_popescu: no, i'm saying freenode adds multi-minute delays at least weekly.
trinque: yeah that's what I've observed as well
trinque: but I'll upgrade to 486DX2 just for alf
Mocky: i don't have any complains, vague or otherwise. just stated what i saw. worked out for me in the end
Mocky: don't forget to hit that turbo button tho
a111: Logged on 2018-08-30 13:22 mircea_popescu: the overarching point being that neither #trilema nor tmsr is a sort of dilbert-larping-zone, here for the
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-29#1845588 "salaried zek" element to gather after hours, smoke, and predictably if circularly discuss how-stupid-everyone-but-us-is.
Mocky: or maybe to get in?
mircea_popescu: PeterL how in are you to begin with ? pick a rifle stand a post ; alternatively pick a lord help out in his castle ; alternatively may i suggest radiomodelism ? or perhaps fishing ?
mircea_popescu: it has to be ; people are uprooting their households in search of glory, it'd be moronic to insult their toil through an overtolerant attitude towards complacency.
a111: Logged on 2018-09-01 15:53 mircea_popescu: in fact, thinking about it, me and you might be the ONLY TO people present who've even ever been inside a mosque
PeterL: now you are moving the goal posts
mircea_popescu: well, if i said "i'm the only guy here to have read illuminated manuscript" and someone said they read beatrix potter's books i'd similarily point out that the term denotes items made before beatrix potter was invented.
mircea_popescu: i outright deny it is possible to build anything other than a ~model~ mosque in the new world.
PeterL: dual citenzship? no, just US citizenship
PeterL: unless she married somebody over there and never told anybody in the family, which I guess is possible
PeterL: she keeps saying we should come visit, so it sounds like at least she thinks US citizens could get in
PeterL: she does get the "randomly selected" additional security screening every time she goes through a US airport, we assume it is just because of "lives in turkey", but maybe she is on a terrorist watch list somewhere
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i really wouldn't believe the spinsters one iota in this matter. sure as fuck nobody in turkey gave no "assurances" and in general their pretend-sovereign posture is fucking ridiculous, besides spurious.
PeterL: it sounds like a nice place to visit
mircea_popescu: "no, but if you bend over and turn like-so, probably will."
a111: Logged on 2018-08-11 03:26 mircea_popescu: also stop putting egg in bread. egg is for cozonac, aranygaluska/monkeybread etc, sweetbreads.
mircea_popescu: that's a lot of bread! how long till you go through that ?
PeterL: we have four kids and it is light, fluffy and delicious, it never lasts more than 24 hours
mircea_popescu: in my old age i barely dare a coupla slices a day. and no, they're not footwide slices either ;/
PeterL: or she uses basically the same recipe to make two large pizzas, or about 8 bread bowl sized round loaves to stuff soup in
PeterL: then you fill it with a creamy potato soup and basically fall into a starch fueled happy coma after you're done eating
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the gall, usg talking of arbitrary detentions.
PeterL: seems like you are more likely to be detained in Turkey if you are government official than visiting tourist
mircea_popescu: in fact, you're universally more likely to be fucked if you ever worked for natoistan than if you haven't.
PeterL: in US on the other hand, don't carry large amounts of cash when crossing the border or being pulled over by police
mircea_popescu: or don't be rich, or powerful, or important, or famous, or... PRETTY.
mircea_popescu: 65 second lag at peak, alf. if it makes you feel better.
deedbot: asciilifeform voiced for 30 minutes.
mircea_popescu: too bad you didn't have the 549876598th ~random "error message" handled!
trinque: deedbot may just be the most visible indication that freenode's shitting the bed. wouldn't have any indication when asciilifeform sent his last message to chan, for example.
trinque "well there's flooding down in texas.. all of the telephone lines are down"
BingoBoingo: PeterL: My though was make the bread more nutritionally complete.
trinque: ave1: couldn't reproduce your errors. all I had to do to re-run the cuntoo build was to fix the portage snapshot var.
☟︎ trinque: will cut a release with the v-tronic portage shortly and we can see if that also breaks for ya.
mircea_popescu: Anyone can program: my frustrations arise when they do it without proper specification, testing regime, documentation and after care. << it is deeply untrue that anyone can program.
mircea_popescu: and similarily, if "anyone can fuck my wife" you've probably not put enoug thought into this whole wifing business.
cazalla: still works huh, imagine that, hello
mircea_popescu: how's australia's most famous dysfunctional marriage going ?
cazalla: well, i just got back from a month bumming around taiwan, probably says enough
a111: Logged on 2018-07-14 16:31 mircea_popescu: smoking nervously in the corner, cazalla mother[m] valentinbuza zineKing zx2c4 etc.
mircea_popescu: how come you didn't come up for air back in taiwan anyway ?
mircea_popescu: well, are you going back ? we've been trying to hire a sinoslut for ages.
cazalla: my new squeeze speaks chinese, can't read or write it though
cazalla: i'll likely go back to do the south of the island, but nothing permanent
mircea_popescu: well, did you come by to make yourself useful, or to say bye ?
cazalla: when i go back, i can try to find someone to fit that role, can't say i'm confident in my ability to come up with someone though
cazalla: i'd rather come back with nothing if i wasn't certain whatever i found was up to par
cazalla: don't want to go out on the real estate rental pamphlet kind of way
cazalla: the people who have taken jobs, came back claiming what they've brought back is what was wanted when it missed completely
cazalla: ill speak to the new squeeze but she's pretty, not so smart, just as likely to bring me the opposite
cazalla: i guess she could put posters up at work (amkor)
cazalla: worked with the flips so why not
mircea_popescu: this is one of the places where a honest fail is worth some chunk of a flat success.
cazalla: i don't understand how large the difference between traditional v simplified chinese is or if it matters in this case
mircea_popescu: i dun want some european transplant. born there to locals.
cazalla: yeah, i get that, but the taiwanese speak/read/write a different chinese to the mainlanders, as to how different it is i don't know
cazalla: i'll give it some thought and planning, likely go back october/november once it cools a bit more
mircea_popescu: you seem in very entirely absent danger of being beaten to the punch, for some incomprehensible reason.
cazalla: funny that, couldn't be an easier place to visit, safe and no visa required up to 90 days, just turn up
cazalla: anyway, off to the gym, bbl
