asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936575 << i can either switch off echo from cross-chan or put in marker , let mircea_popescu say which when he wakes up ( will make it a knob. )
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-15 18:45:12 mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936554 << holy shit this can't continue, if you folk are going to let the logreaders read from other channels (which, honestly, i'm considering banning) at least prepend an [channel name] before or something.
asciilifeform: graphical browsers tell you url when hovering, but e.g. lynx does not, prolly explains why mircea_popescu went grr
asciilifeform: will be a gnarly knob, cuz under no circumstances am i running a bot that dun cross-echo in ~my~ castle.
asciilifeform: ( e.g. cross_post=asciilifeform,...,..., )
asciilifeform: diana_coman, spyked , lobbes , BingoBoingo , lemme know if you want yours in that list .
asciilifeform: ( and mircea_popescu , say if you want yours excluded, or alternatively prefix '[chan] Logged on xxxx-xx-xx.... foo' etc. )
asciilifeform: this prolly won't go in until end of week, all changes to bot are to be tested to death before rollout.
asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936574 << iirc lobbes said that he had it on credit, rather than owned. (but can't find in log, so maybe i dreamed it)
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-15 18:43:07 mircea_popescu: but, traditionally, owning real estate is what separates the bourgeoisie from the mob/vagrancie.
lobbes: ^ this is correct. It is a liability right now, not an asset as far as I'm concerned
asciilifeform: iirc the way these typically work in usa, is that 'buyer' spends decade+ paying just the interest
asciilifeform: (i.e. when 'sells', gets 0)
lobbes: indeed, is a scam. I fell for the 'well, my mortgage will be a fixed cost vs rising rents' thinking, but neglected to factor in cost of maintenance, rising property taxes, whathaveyou
lobbes: i.e. I have a long road ahead of me out of poorandstupid-town
asciilifeform: lobbes: this may be a geographic thing, or simply asciilifeform's luck, but when renting 'from human' never 1nce experienced rising cost. they're extremely reluctant to raise it, because 'what happens if this d00d leaves and aint replaced until months later, or is replaced with a normal person who dun maintain w/ own hands' etc
asciilifeform: asciilifeform's prev. landlord did errything short of begging on knees, 'pleez dun go'
asciilifeform: i dunno whether to believe, but he said that even paying on schedule erry single month is unusual nowadays...
asciilifeform: ( and even that typical tenant nao does things like punch hole in wall w/ fist and then demand that landlord fix for phree )
lobbes: oh yeah, my mom used to be a landlord back before I was born. Would tell horror stories of tenants writing curses in literal shit on the walls when she had to evict them for non-payment
asciilifeform: him:'usually i have to redo the drywall when folx leave, but yours is perfect, how?' a: (holding tin of spackle behind back) 'by magic'
asciilifeform: lobbes: 'normal people tenant' is apparently vehehery interesting concept in this part of world
lobbes: but I suspect you are correct re: human owners + geographics. Charlotte is a typical "bubble" city; low corp tax rates attract the banking industry, which fuels the need for meatworkers, but apparently NC doesn't produce skilled-enough workers on its own, so for the last few decades has been importing 'em (virtually all the people on my team are not from NC)
lobbes: which attracts the 'non human' rental corps. along with rising rents
asciilifeform: asciilifeform to current landlord (another ru d00d) : 'you can keep the weather station tower when i go, i won't need it where i'll go'
asciilifeform: lobbes: the 'organized' co.'s are 100% poison, avoid'em if at all possible in usa
asciilifeform: lobbes: i found out that in many locales in tardschwitz, incl. this 1, tenants 'have rights'(tm)(r) and can take yr+ to extract one if he stops paying... and that this happens regularly
asciilifeform: ( and, moar staggeringly, 'clock' on this 'yr+' ~resets~ if the derp scrapes together some pennies and pays ~1 month~ )
lobbes: insanity. "cannot own" in US verily
asciilifeform: the takehome moral from this, is that if someone expects to make serious profit by renting out residential sqmetrage in usa -- think again.
asciilifeform: ( yet someone builds the blocks of flats . how they make profit ? very simply, tlp-style, i.e. by leasing to welfare mooches, these come w/ guaranteed subsidy from usg. )
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: There's also the popular in 401k REITs that turn retirement savings dollars into real estate bubble dollars
feedbot: http://blog.lobbesblog.com/2019/09/mp-wp-bot-work-plan-week-2/ << lobbesblog -- mp-wp bot work plan: week 2
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, asciilifeform a [#chan] marker from bot sounds good to me; in #o for now at least I'd rather it cross-echoes indeed but I can see also why this might not be appropriate for #t
diana_coman: fwiw, I think the whole thread there belonged better in #o possibly starting with http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-09-14#1936342
ossabot: Logged on 2019-09-14 20:41:10 lobbes: Of course I'm already regretting that resignation thinking I did that with my classic 'jumpy reasoning'; I think what I really needed was clarity, which comes from communication, which has been working pretty well so far.
mircea_popescu: and speaking of http://trilema.com/2019/concedo-hoc/#comment-131427 : i'm pretty sure i read trinque referring to the laughable playdates of the menalone as "wankastery" / "wankasteries", as a transparent adjustment of monastery to more truthfully reflect its real function
mircea_popescu: but i can't seem to find it ?!
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936599 << plox marker.

mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936602 << okay, but what's the problem with it echoing "[trilema] <mircea_popescu> but i can't seem to find it ?!" rather than "<mircea_popescu> but i can't seem to find it ?!"
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-15 20:52:11 asciilifeform: will be a gnarly knob, cuz under no circumstances am i running a bot that dun cross-echo in ~my~ castle.
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936596 << i imagine the ~perceived~ pressure on nameless womanhood is quite immense, "omfg, what do i say, what if they make fun of me, they're gonna say i never installed linux from scratch as if it implied i'm half a dead man riding about on half a dead rabbit!!!"
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-15 20:24:51 hanbot: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-14#1936285 << more's the point is that your "household" consists of a WoT non-entity (afaik, actually. is it?) that may or may not be just as clueless about saying something here if you get a touch of The Butt. aesthetipolitical bents, righteous as they may be, pale by comparison.
mircea_popescu: it's an ecology problem, very much of the cycle variety ; an' will have to be addressed, though in this particular case the corner naive gent's painted himself in is SO FAR OUT THERE, and there's SO MUCH GOD DAMNED PAINT surface, it'll take a while to unwind.
snsabot: Logged on 2017-12-13 23:52:25 asciilifeform: also it is not so hot , as a tuner, 'shits where it eats' quite severely
mircea_popescu: (i dun even mean trinque specifically, the naive gent's a universal, anyone who never seriously thought about these things in these forms for these reasons five or ten years ago, meaning practically everyone.)
mircea_popescu: then of course there's the hallucinatoria of the coy reflex, girl who's never taken a stroll nude down the busy street imagines it's gonna be the end of the world!!! much like the guy taking a stumble imagines everyone's watchin' an' judging, AS FUCKING IF they could unglue their eyes off the i[nca[pods long enough to notice their own fucking shoes are on fire.
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936605 << actually since we're doing this, i'd like the whole thing reviewed, as follows :
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-15 20:55:59 asciilifeform: ( and mircea_popescu , say if you want yours excluded, or alternatively prefix '[chan] Logged on xxxx-xx-xx.... foo' etc. )
mircea_popescu: "snsabot Logged on 2017-12-13 23:52:25 asciilifeform:" should become "snsabot 2017-12-13 [ossasepia] asciilifeform:" for all reads of a foreign log, and "snsabot 2017-12-13 asciilifeform:" for all reads of this here log.
mircea_popescu: who wants the time of day, let him go look.
mircea_popescu: going from a fixed 53 bytes header to either 46 or more generally 34 seems a fabulous gain in any case.
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936611 << good thing he makes "a lot of money" then.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-15 21:05:24 asciilifeform: (i.e. when 'sells', gets 0)
mircea_popescu: no wonder zeks end up crushed under dependopopotami in their private relations -- at least it's consequent, the bitch at home behaves exactly like the home itself, spend decade to get 0.
mircea_popescu: explains a lot, such as the "motorcycle" clubs consisting of fellows who buy motorcycle parts for an alleged motorcycle that has more in common with a tchotchke than an actual conveyance, IN THAT IT DOESN'T FUCKING MOVE
mircea_popescu: useless children spawned by useless women lodged in useless houses wherein a mancave fulla unusable paraphenalia of inutility are uselessly stored... what a fucking life. the only possible progression is towards tranquilizers, and on the basis of the cheapest being weed this theory'd indicate "a weed epidemic".
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936612 << you bought it ~as an inflation play~ ?! holy hell man, what the fuck's wrong with schooling there. inflation is the enemy of old men, what the fuck does a 20yo care, holy shit it's all backwards.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-15 21:06:04 lobbes: indeed, is a scam. I fell for the 'well, my mortgage will be a fixed cost vs rising rents' thinking, but neglected to factor in cost of maintenance, rising property taxes, whathaveyou
mircea_popescu: let's do some practical home economics likbez :
mircea_popescu: IF the problem is that the currency is shit (which is strictly what "rising rents" means : if rents are rising, THEREFORE the currency is shit. if urine is sweet, THEREFORE diabethes, no iffs or butts about it, these are NOT separable), then owning real estate is a very poor solution : real estate follows the currency secular trend
mircea_popescu: if currency is strong and stays strong, real estate goes up in value, which is how owning land in republican rome or expansive venice paid out.
mircea_popescu: if however the currency flags, real estate forthwith moves into emergency monetization role, meaning you want to short it as part of a triple currency play.
mircea_popescu: (which is why us banks LEND you houses : it's the other part of their international trade where they borrow hard currency.)
mircea_popescu: that was part 1, as to financials.
mircea_popescu: IF you are a young man, and are producing more than consuming (if not, please follow the recipe for gender re-assignment, you don't belong here), you should save ~in capital goods~ specifically ~of your trade~.
snsabot: Logged on 2018-01-08 12:21:33 btcvixen: Yes it does, as my government id says "Sex: F"
mircea_popescu: that's what you do with every dime you can save : you buy your own tools! to become journeyman!
mircea_popescu: if you're making a living driving a car, you buy CARS. if you're making a living fixing cars, you buy forklifts and power tools.
mircea_popescu: the only 20something who can reasonably buy real estate is... a pimp.
mircea_popescu: if you're not a fucking pimp, you don't buy real estate in your 20s. and if you are a pimp, you buy in fucking baltimore, you buy in the blighted downtown of detroit or philly or whatever the shit. NOT crap in suburbia ;
mircea_popescu: and in any case you don't buy crap made ~for you~ by people who ~you do not know~.
mircea_popescu: what the fuck, are you retarded ? if people who you don't know are making things for you, the name for the thing they're making is A TRAP
mircea_popescu: either you buy made to order like my serb friends, or else you buy leftover brownstone nobody else wants, etcetera. what the fuck, this is novel to someone ?! why, because "do we still have to" read 1700s state of the art textbooks on personal conduct ?
snsabot: Logged on 2018-11-25 13:50:17 a111: Logged on 2014-09-10 15:02 mircea_popescu: well yeah. was a bunch o people, they got building permit and proceeded to built like at home. concrete pillars, brick walls etc.
mircea_popescu: that was part 2, as to journeyman economic conduct.
mircea_popescu: if you're a young man, YOU DO NOT BUY ILLIQUID, NON-NEGOTIABLE ANYTHING!!!! i don't mean, with money. i mean with anything. you have enough sense to keep your sexual relationships at will rather than get fucking married, fine, but the same applies throughout.
mircea_popescu: buying "a house" from "the bank" is THE EXACT EQUIVALENT of giving your savings to your dad "to hold on to them for you". what the fuck, are you twelve ?
mircea_popescu: things flow the other way, your aging dad gives you the duchy of cornwall for you to hold on to for him, what the fuck is this ? and if dad ~dun have~ a duchy of cornwall large enough to keep you occupied, ~you leave~. and you spit on his head, too, because HE FAILED in life. because this was his fucking job : by the time the sons he made were old enough to do something useful with histime, he was supposed to have so much
mircea_popescu: fucking land and chattels as to be desperate for loyal hands, and more than happy to "go, take x, hang yourself with it, holy hell finally!"
mircea_popescu: as a young orphan with potential, you keep to negotiable instruments. that's why the young men of florence who did get to be old men and successful enough as to buy up all the young cunts for gold to all the failures' despair went into trade rather than bureaucracy!
mircea_popescu: NEGOTIABLE.
mircea_popescu: if whatever the fuck it is "you have" can't be ~sold~, on the ~open market~, YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED IN IT.
mircea_popescu: you will be interested, of course, BUT FIVE DECADES HENCE. when you're old. then the sort of non-negotiable commitment makes sense. not in your fucking 20s, so spare me with all the "jobs" you can not sell (yes, this is what "working remote" IS, SELLING IT!!!), all the "college degrees" worth 0 on auction, and all the etcetera.
mircea_popescu: this was part 3, as to commercial aptitude.
mircea_popescu: there's more, and besideswhich a lot more to all of these foregoing parts, but holy hell... seriously, nobody ever thinks of things or what is the problem here !?
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-16#1936660 << this is why, eg, greenwhich village even fucking happened in the 50s : rents were SO LOW a bunch of niggers getting together for an evening could sing themselves into the month's rent. it was CHEAPER to live there than in whatever alabama that spawned them. because back then the currency was strong, because etc.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-16 05:37:45 mircea_popescu: IF the problem is that the currency is shit (which is strictly what "rising rents" means : if rents are rising, THEREFORE the currency is shit. if urine is sweet, THEREFORE diabethes, no iffs or butts about it, these are NOT separable), then owning real estate is a very poor solution : real estate follows the currency secular trend
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936614 << duh.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-15 21:09:33 asciilifeform: lobbes: this may be a geographic thing, or simply asciilifeform's luck, but when renting 'from human' never 1nce experienced rising cost. they're extremely reluctant to raise it, because 'what happens if this d00d leaves and aint replaced until months later, or is replaced with a normal person who dun maintain w/ own hands' etc
mircea_popescu: not to mention the MOST important element, by far : as a young orphan (and if your dad dun have any duchies for you, you ARE an orphan, whether you admit it or not ; denial won't fix status) you WANT to get in the way of men-who-aren't-as-fucked-in-the-head-and-offensively-useless-and-retarded as that mongrel dog your drunk of a mother fucked to produce you.
mircea_popescu: renting means you rent from some dude who owns, and you're better off with some dude who owns in your life than without. ESPECIALLY because you're an orphan. and you're paying, and paying on time, and doing other things (eg your very own quote, "maintain with own hands"), it is infinitely better for you to have than to not have.
mircea_popescu: the hierarchy of consume-more-than-produce young females is very strictly 1. girls who found themselves a sponsor, who fucks them and pays their rent ABOVE 2. morons living in state-run orphanage. the SAME EXACT thing applies to boys too, just because you pay your own rent doesn't change the disposition in the field, doesn't make up down and down up.
mircea_popescu: which is even the incentive to own real estate as an old man : you get a wider aperture, to meet the better cut of youth. supposing you're too retarded to apply numerical methods, nevertheless, this is what you'll be doing with your time : sifting through the pile of worthless goop spit out by [http://trilema.com/2015/quantum-mechanics-today-a-machine-to-turn-penis-projectile-vibrati
mircea_popescu: on-into-eyelash-flutter/][the evercunt], trying to find the workable pieces.
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936615 << i have very close relations with my assorted an' endless pile of various landlords scattered on 4 continents also. and I LIKE IT THAT WAY.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-15 21:11:35 asciilifeform: asciilifeform's prev. landlord did errything short of begging on knees, 'pleez dun go'
mircea_popescu: you'd think that some dude everyone was butthurt about being worth a billion back when bitcoin crossed 1k the first "time could afford to own" ; but that's all a red herring, SPECIFICALLY the dumb old mula red herring. it's not a matter of affording, it's a matter of not wanting to.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-18 09:59:04 mp_en_viaje: i can almost hear the cageworthy old woman impelling the nonsense, too, "oh, why don't you want to do $random-stupid-shit, ~are you too scared?!?!?!?~".
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936616 << "rising cost of rents" aka "we got so many of you retards ''''buying'''' in the sense of underwriting our downside so we can eat the upside undisturbed, we lost count".
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-15 21:12:41 asciilifeform: i dunno whether to believe, but he said that even paying on schedule erry single month is unusual nowadays...
mircea_popescu: what the fuck sorta rattle gotta be going on in some dude's brain to ACTUALLY BELIEVE what the fucking bankers are telling them, when engaged in a negotiation for the very thing the bankers make their money from. what, you thought all the advertising exists as a private gift from aliens ?! it's there BECAUSE these idiots rely on breaking down social communication to insert their shit in the gaps, wtf.
mircea_popescu: every zek is shocked to see romanians will liberally ask about income, with no shits give, of people they just met. and "how much was this", and "what did you pay for that", and etcetera.
mircea_popescu: ustard can't ask his fucking wife how much she makes, and this isn't "so that the corporations pay less because employees can't compare notes"
mircea_popescu: it's so EMPLOYEES HAVE NO FRIENDS!
mircea_popescu: same thing "hr policy" does : it prevents the formation of natural fucking hierarchy and independently functioning groups.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: fwiw I suspect what "gotta be going on" is ~= fear (coming out of being entirely and utterly unprepared to deal with it if "not believing")
mircea_popescu: so that no hussy who utterly deserved it gets raped occasionally (ie, whenever someone can be arsed, which comes to way the fuck less frequently than she'd like), everyone gets raped all the time in all the holes. great fucking deal, what can i tell you. let them be raped in the workplace, they'll be ok.
mircea_popescu: rape's a lot better for the young woman than socialism for society.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, i suppose.
mircea_popescu: existential anxiety, whynot.
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936617 << in fairness, that was not a wall in the first place. should be fixed anyways.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-15 21:13:42 asciilifeform: ( and even that typical tenant nao does things like punch hole in wall w/ fist and then demand that landlord fix for phree )
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936626 << heh. i guess the only practicable way to rent in the us is actually like lobbes stumbled upon : pick up chicks, don't put them on the lease, work them for the keep and dismiss when done.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-15 21:23:19 asciilifeform: ( and, moar staggeringly, 'clock' on this 'yr+' ~resets~ if the derp scrapes together some pennies and pays ~1 month~ )
mircea_popescu: kinda how this worked throughout history, actually, and very much specifically because "have rights". hence the manor system.
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-15#1936628 << or rather, "that if you expect the king to send his men to make YOU a profit, think again". if you wanna turn a profit, you gotta do it ~OUTSIDE OF INCA~. hence i suppose all the "massage parlours" etc.

mircea_popescu: meanwhile http://www.zdp.ro/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Prostituate-DN1-Campina.jpg
asciilifeform: lolwtf, matchstick people
mircea_popescu: nice stockings tho ; my girls got similar.
asciilifeform: rright but in the linked pic it is rather like putting stockings on bicycle fork
mircea_popescu: yeah well... they got what they got.
mircea_popescu: actually the shit supposed pimps put up with is mindboggling, compare and contrast with http://trilema.com/2019/get-lost-dumbo/
mircea_popescu: sucks being these tryina-be wanna-be sadpeople.
asciilifeform perhaps odd, but associates stockings like this with dour 17th c d00dz like old man gottfried leibniz , rather than chix
mircea_popescu: or for that matter charles 2.
mircea_popescu: restless he rolls from whore to whore, a merry monarch, scandalous and poor ; a very pretty, witty king whose word no man relies on, he never said a foolish thing nor ever did a wise one
asciilifeform: lol that beats a hell of a lot of kings
mircea_popescu: ikr. he was quite popular, too.
asciilifeform: ( could even describe brezhnev, in his 1st coupla yrs on throne )
mircea_popescu: haha
mircea_popescu: just about huh
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: afaik he was the 1 sovok fuhrer who managed to have a bit of fun in civilian life.
asciilifeform: charlesII-style.
mircea_popescu: beria did ok

diana_coman: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-09-16#1936741 - fixed and dump manually updated; it turned out the mess-up was caused by a mix-up of local log formats (ie ran like an idiot the awk script on the not-matching format; basically I have too many logs all around)
ossabot: Logged on 2019-09-16 13:20:43 asciilifeform: diana_coman: when you fix your copy, i'ma reimport, ping me
diana_coman: in the process I updated the awk importer too but I don't even know if it's any use given that I'm not 100% sure what is "irssi standard format" really
diana_coman: tbh that was my initial reluctance with making converter a .vpatch to start with; maybe it makes sense to still make it a .vpatch but with clear example of format since just saying "irssi" might not be quite enough.
mircea_popescu: anyone remember this ancient cartoon on trilema, from the early days of "bitcoin bankers", of the substance of some dude holding up some pencildick at an atm, and the pencildick ranting all the while about interest rates and loans /
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo, ?
BingoBoingo: I can't recall that one.
lobbes recalls comic but not the specific trilema
mircea_popescu: damn
BingoBoingo: remember which "bankers" were involved?
mircea_popescu: oh, was the early dorkitude. http://trilema.com/2012/bitcoin-lolcows-the-musical-today-kludge/ &co
mircea_popescu: an; that australian fuckwit stockbroker who was defrauding dudes online and was then VERY SURPRISED when i had him fired / banned from trading wtf his name was

mircea_popescu: tyvm bb
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> an; that australian fuckwit stockbroker who was defrauding dudes online and was then VERY SURPRISED when i had him fired / banned from trading wtf his name was << Harnett and you did that in 2012
mircea_popescu: that's right! harnett
mircea_popescu: dawg, we've been at this for a WHILE, have we.
BingoBoingo: Harnett was still in my tentative reading from outside period
mircea_popescu is very glad he asked.
mircea_popescu: saved me an hour
lobbes: http://logs.ericbenevides.com/log/trilema/2019-09-16#1936774 << fwiw, during my testing of the irssi converter I noticed my irssi had very different formatting than the example you provided (It padded the < nicks > for e.g., and formatted the timestamps slightly different). Seems to be format variability between instances indeed

lobbes: still is value in having the initial vpatch, I think. Though there is the point that conversion never ends

snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-10 23:54:10 lobbes: will probably ammend the READMEs of all converters once this testing phase is over. For better clarity on expected irssi/znc log formats
lobbes: I guess what I'm asking is should we bother patching for all permutations of possible formats, or just stick with diana_coman's original and state what it expects. To my limited eye I'd say the latter is the saner approach
asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-16#1936774 << if this was actual bug in your 'irssi2tmsr' tool, plox to vpatch

hanbot: yo trinque, deedbot doesn't like hanbot-abroad's attempts to register with a pubkey pasted to paste.deedbot.org (Import failed), ideas?
lobbes: hanbot: it would seem you already registered that key (and rated back in march)
lobbes coincidentally saw that key a few hours ago while grabbing your main key for a mp-wp install for testing
hanbot: lol ty. what a fun head i've got.
hanbot: actually nah, that's hanbot-abroad. i'm trying to register hanbot_abroad, possibly deedbot doesn't like the similarity.
