trinque: not even an unreasonable gentoo at a certain time.
trinque: gentoo guy called his memberberries "funtoo" if it tells us anything.
trinque: that's what was lost y'see, the fun
trinque: it's the original dood after he gave gentoo over to the committee

BingoBoingo: And right below that: "Keychain helps you to manage SSH and GPG keys in a convenient and secure manner. It acts as a front-end to ssh-agent and ssh-add, but allows you to easily have one long running ssh-agent process per system, rather than the norm of one ssh-agent per login session."
trinque: > What was the meaning of the action?
trinque: man I find lobbes such an entertaining character, and not in some kind of diminutive way.
trinque: lobbes: I'm not even ripping on you

diana_coman: seems like an overkill for a logger but from all I can find about them I really like those guys www.cyberbunker.com/web/swat.php
a111: Logged on 2014-10-20 21:59 mircea_popescu: Once the SWAT team reached the bunker's blast doors, they 'knock' to announce their presence. It is unclear exactly what they say, as no sound is recorded from the surveillance system. CyberBunker is equipped with an advanced Intruder Detection System (IDS), however due to a testing drill the previous night the IDS system was accidentally left in the inactive mode. Two SWAT officers are seen to hit the blast door of th
diana_coman: I did a log-search and couldn't find it; ah, I searched in new ones
diana_coman: they claim on the site that they have "other bunkers" ; now if those are not as much bunkers as ordinary dc...
diana_coman: anyways, otherwise so far it would seem my logger will end up ...in Moldova
diana_coman: I just didn't expect it/plan it,lol; but precisely: why not; at least so far they have been very responsive, let's see how it works out.
a111: Logged on 2014-04-23 14:09 asciilifeform: make the chassis from 'inconel' or similar alloy.
phf: yeah, i only added them recently
phf: the approach is from the "illuminated manuscripts" era of tmsr, so i kept all the files as is, but i think i can produce a kako style dump reasonably fast
phf: it's taking a long time, but yes
phf: that would've been a lot more glamorous
phf: nah, a crack in my butt
phf: mp kept making the same jokes about "fallen off ass", i thought it would've been obvious by now
phf: this was actually quite similar, i went off trail in swiss alps, because the path was damaged and i didn't want to backtrack, it was maybe 200m to a parallel route, but the way was pretty much vertical
phf: well, i slipped at some point and landed badly into a kind of brush covered fallen tree stump
phf: hurt like a motherfucker, so i had no idea for a while if i broke my tailbone, tore something, or what
phf: but the crack got infected, just because it's that kind of area, and by the time i got it dealt with i was in a pre-sepsis state. it took less than a week from a fall to 39.9 120 bpm infection
phf: asciilifeform: yeap, i see no reason to leave really
phf: you ought to consider moving here, or at least coming for a visit. the place is a lot livelier than dc, food is better, girls are prettier, things are generally cheaper, etc. etc. etc.

snsabot: asciilifeform: time since my last reconnect : 10d 4h 27m
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Well, one of my suspicions is that much of the EU wants to minimize the amount of time Brazil spends in periods of less retared government.
BingoBoingo: There's probably some Teuton and Nordic anxiety over the prospect that sophisticated products of Brasil displace their sophisticated products.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I suspect boats and boat related systems. Bofors and similar.
BingoBoingo: Taurus's LATAM catalog is more utility oriented than their US "sell all comes exactly what they imagine they want" catalog
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-26 11:06:28 diana_coman: if only code were more denuding and batshit - everyone would want to read it!
BingoBoingo: Brasil also has shipyards, an aerospace industry that stamps out helicopters, drones, and satellites... they have the sorts of industry Argentina should and could have had if Argentines weren't so incredibly determined to all dole about the port.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-26 15:07:52 asciilifeform: 'But the case for territorial incursion in the Amazon is far stronger than the justifications for most war. In the meantime, the planet chokes on old notions of sovereignty.' << lol! couldn't make this up.
mircea_popescu: as the expression goes, "you'd be eaten by baby turtles in half hour"
mircea_popescu would not go without dozen+ men, and none of the "men's club barber shop" cock ornaments qualify
mircea_popescu: and if you're gone for more than a few weeks... godo for you, you get to do it all over again!
BingoBoingo: lol, yeah. This terrain is still mostly "lets detour outside our borders to transit the Paraguay river" sorta stuff no much more accessible than it was in the 1860s
mircea_popescu: speaking of this, remember back when "bric countries" was a thing, and ustards seriously believed they're something special ?
BingoBoingo: Well, now any given BRIC is bigger than the US and they don't talk about them at all.
BingoBoingo: That momentarily Brazil isn't actively growling at the US is largely due to the personal affinity that exists between Trump and Bolsonaro for however long it lasts.
mircea_popescu: because of strategic ineptitude, brazil could actually take over the atlantic fleed from the us within a few years.
mircea_popescu: for some retarded reason usg decided to concentrate its shipmaking on pacific side
mircea_popescu: whereas brazil is one of the top three producers of gross tonnage, in the military-strategic sense, after china and india and ahead of russkis.
mircea_popescu: but yes, brasil is exactly what argentina could/should have been, if they weren't utterly braindamaged lazyfucks,
BingoBoingo: Items labeled at the same thing in the local stores from Brasil and Argentina could not be further apart in the quality and their ability to be what the label calls them.
BingoBoingo: Except when it comes to agricultural products. That is every bit the chemical warfare seen in the US adapted to tropical demands.
BingoBoingo: Ecuador bananas far superior to Brasil bananas.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: It could probably benefit. The defense of Fortaleza has the potential to be a sort of Brazilian Stalingrad.
BingoBoingo: Then again if Pedro II was fertile enough to have sufficient children to select 1 not completely retarded heir, Brasil could have been bigger than the US ever was. 1000 year reich and so on.
mircea_popescu: as a factual matter, every warship wreck found adrift in space after the "empire" spawning it was long fucked out of the bloodline is still calling for imaginary rreinforcements at specific positions misexpressed in irrelevant systems of coordinates.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: As far as I can tell the Miami 5th column is ~the same as Argentina's, but beat more frequently
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Not all together improbably the Iriquous forgot the French were their reinforcements by the time they came.
BingoBoingo: Anyways, the reasons the EU-Mercosur thing as groundbreaking as it would be hasn't made Qntra to now are the myriad of factors lined up against it. Namely the "traditional Argentine cheeses" could be sold in Europe under their protected in Europe names trap, etc.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: AHA. The EU-Mercosur deal means the European "protected designations of origin" would not apply to Mercosur products sold in the US. So the Argentines, could market "Parmasean Reggiano Industria Argentina" as "Parmasean"
BingoBoingo: Per the deal Mercosur recognizes 357 of the 3400 "European Geographical Indications", EU recognizes some Mercosur ones, and because of european heritage in the Americas all sorts of EU geographical indications won't be used against products of Mercosur origin if there's a tradition involved.
BingoBoingo: Of course Mercosur could dissolve in 2020 because Argentina.
mircea_popescu: lobbes, incidentally, your blog takes an ungodly amt of time to take a comment. must be some kinda bug somewheres.

BingoBoingo: So much noise in the local presses on both sides of the river over "Why doesn't Turkey get a crisis too! So unfair!"
mircea_popescu: turkey actually kicks ass, they built a new uberairport that everyone is all lovey over, and their road infrastructure defo > yurp.
mircea_popescu will be going later, but advanced reports look pretty wow.
mircea_popescu: anyway, re the amazon thing : that's precisely how the twenny dollar bill guy (jackson) got florida from spain : "oh, you're not maintaining it properly"
mircea_popescu: in other lulz : there's a quite active market in ~old~ benjie bills. all 1k notes go for 1-2k in normal, pocket money like grades (banknotes are graded, things with >3 folds and maybe a missing corner or such (but no tears) are VF (very fine) to EF (extremely), CU have all the corners, no folds. the grading goes up to gem, which are particularly/exceptionally good strikes, vivid and well centered.)
mircea_popescu: the 1928 gold seal issuance easily fetches 5k and even upwards of 10k CU and above grades, per bill. (pretty much everything from 1928 is good money, as a general rule)
mircea_popescu: the 1934B and C series (green seal) go for 3-4k each, and 5k+ in CU ; the 1928 gold 50s go for 1-200 and 250+ ; the 1928 C (green seal) 20 is goot for 1-200 / 1k+ ; the 1934 yelow seal 10 dollar bill can be 1-2k / 10k+ each (as it's very rare)
mircea_popescu: the 1928C and D series 5-dolalr bills again 1-200 up to 1500-2k+ (and the 1929 brown seal can be good too, esp the finer grades 1k++) ; the 1928 E series one-dollars can be 2-300 / 1k to 15k for very fine bills.
mircea_popescu: as these are collectors' items, they obviously do not count as money for, eg, [][crossing borders].
mircea_popescu: wth is the story of that guy who kept moving $9999 from mexico eventually they stopped him ?
BingoBoingo: iirc B, C, and D series benjis are demonetized in Para-rotary-guay
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: 2 dollar bill still in print. They just print it in qualtities and frequences simular to local 10 peso coins
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Seen many times. Frequently chosen for gifting children.
mircea_popescu: should prolly be pretty lulzy hole to exploit, make old moneys.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> somehow azn tards never think of THAT. << They do, but they do... the COINS! "Morgan Dollar", etc
mircea_popescu: i was talking more re the whole best korea "false benjie'
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Well, it doesn't hurt that silver primarily a waste byproduct that emerges from copper and lead prodction
mircea_popescu: but yes, most coins are simply worth less than it'd cost to make
