BingoBoingo USia is fucked... Ted Cruz: "Let me contrast President Obama, who at the prayer breakfast essentially acted as an apologist. He said well gosh the crusades, the inquisitions ... We need a president that shows the courage that Egypt’s President al-Sissi did—a Muslim—when he called out the radical Islamic terrorists who are threatening the world." [00:01]
BingoBoingo Now USia isn't fucked because a candidate for executive and sitting senator said that. It is fucked because of all US lab states abroad Egypt seems the most appropriate to appeal to the crowds? [00:03]
BingoBoingo Trump just might end up the Grand Ole Party's nominee. [00:06]

decimation I'm pretty sure he's working for clitler [00:06]
BingoBoingo decimation: He is now, but if he gets the nomination... [00:07]
BingoBoingo Clitler might surrender to combover [00:07]
decimation lol [00:07]
BingoBoingo Now I might be drunk, but it seems like the "news" business wants a Carly v. Trump GOP primary [00:08]
* BingoBoingo pretty sure on the off chance he got the nomination Graham would come out of the closet to steal Clitler votes [00:10]
decimation they want whoever will be the best circus clown for the democrats to hate upon [00:10]
BingoBoingo decimation: Maybe? Generally they hope a democrat wins, but this is where they news channels make their money for the next four years. [00:11]
BingoBoingo They want drama(period) [00:11]

BingoBoingo Clitler v. Combover would be a battle of $140mil+graft vs. $980mil+differentgraft [00:14]
BingoBoingo n6: Practice on different *nic first. Install OpenBSD upgrade to stable. May have to patch bitcoind, but learn building from source in very documented way. [00:15]
decimation I don't get the lefty case for clitler [00:15]
BingoBoingo There isn't one. [00:16]
BingoBoingo A true SJW would want Bernie Sanders to go "Jenner" [00:17]
decimation yeah, that I get [00:17]
decimation but clitler would immediately sell out to the highest bidder, doesn't even really pretend otherwise [00:17]

BingoBoingo Guess Gawker Media's special guest for their debate live blawg (hint: it was Obummer's lapdog Glenn Greenwald, citizen$maxint) [00:23]
decimation greenwald is a 'frenemy' of the democrats [00:24]
decimation I'm sure he enrages the bureaucrats that nominally work for obama [00:25]
decimation but he can't be disrespected without costing popular vote [00:25]

BingoBoingo Glenn if I see you tweeting any more good jokes instead of putting them here you will forfeit the iTunes gift card you were promised for this liveblog appearance" [00:28]
BingoBoingo ^ Incredilol [00:29]
BingoBoingo I actually though am not inclined to blame Trump for his current place in USian electoral politics. Sometimes my nonegenarian Grandpa wants the yard cut short Friday so it looks good over the weekend. Other weeks, he tries to talk me into tilling the yard because the $10 of wheat he might grow in a year would be one appointment's copay at the audiologist. [00:32]
BingoBoingo The democratic primary debates will surely be a bigger farce though, mostly because to my knowledge none have been scheduled [00:34]
BingoBoingo Butt between Pareene and Greenwald abandoning Omidyar's pet for Gawker we must be able to imply where CIA favors. [00:36]

mircea_popescu so he had. [02:04]

n6 mircea_popescu: How can I find out? [02:08]
* assbot gives voice to hanbot [02:08]
mircea_popescu does it exist and so you got a path problem, or does it not exist so you got a failed to build problem [02:08]
mircea_popescu well i dunno, but in worst case find / -iname modinfo.sh ? [02:09]
n6 trinque: this guide went much better then yesterday with aws [02:09]
mircea_popescu "did it work ?" "oh, no, but it failed more pleasantly" [02:09]

mircea_popescu that's your problem thenm [02:11]
mircea_popescu no efi built no sh [02:11]
n6 How do I build efi? [02:12]
mircea_popescu hey, you wouldn't be trying to build a 64 bit thing on a 32 bit machine would you ? [02:12]
n6 only the first 3 times. [02:12]
n6 What do I need to change to get it work? [02:13]
trinque n6: that var referencing grub [02:13]
trinque lemme see [02:13]
trinque well did you go with lilo? because that would then be elilo [02:14]
n6 no i'm going to stick with the guide and do grub [02:14]
trinque mircea_popescu: this is where it's sorta hard to mask the essential complexity if the thing without making decisions for people [02:14]

trinque n6: switching to "CSM" mode in the efi settings [02:16]
n6 how? [02:16]
trinque there's some key when you first boot up to get into the settings, enter on mine [02:17]

mats carrier groups are formidable, sure, but DoD is well aware of their vulnerability [02:20]
mircea_popescu no idea why the aussies are trying to go after the proved-to-fail system (ships) instead of outright copying the chiense (missile batteries) but hey. [02:20]

mircea_popescu it can churn out 100k of the damned things. there's no defending against missiles if "missiles" means, six digit moving items [02:21]

trinque n6: the guide you followed did not account at all for EFI [02:32]
trinque in the EFI case there's even another partition you must have [02:33]
trinque the CSM thing I suggested is a way of setting EFI computers into a compatibility mode that behaves like BIOS [02:33]
n6 trinque: what will it take for me to not have to make a 4th install here. I read your links still don't understand, last time I went without this step it ended poorly. [02:34]
trinque you don't have to trash the whole thing; merely reboot, set CSM, boot the livecd, mount, and chroot again [02:35]
trinque but first you must figure out where you changed the system to support EFI and change it back [02:35]

trinque those were separate concerns [02:38]
trinque no [02:38]
trinque guide is for 64bit [02:38]

n6 Um, I'm in way over my head and going on 17 hours of gentoo [02:53]

n6 Do they come with backdoors also? [02:55]
trinque your grub may have all kinds of knobs twiddled depending on what you did to try efi [02:55]
trinque does what come with back doors? [02:55]
n6 my fake bios [02:56]
trinque your everything has back doors [02:56]
trinque or who knows; I don't have evidence [02:56]
trinque but this decision wont help you in either case [02:56]
trinque because in both cases it'd be because of a flaw, and neither you nor I know of the particular flaws in your firmware [02:57]
n6 I think only edited the grub_platform file to try efi [02:57]
trinque the other place you might've would've been /etc/defaults/grub [02:58]
trinque rather, default [02:58]
trinque but that appears to pertain to the generation of grub's config, not its installation [02:58]
n6 ls: cannot access /etc/defaults/grub: No such file or directory [02:58]
trinque yeah, I was wrong about the plural [02:59]
n6 I don't have anything in this folder [02:59]

mircea_popescu i guess this is to some degree true. war changes to favour offensive or defensive in a cycle. there's an excelent scene in der untergang, where a veteran field officer surveying the killing zone through stereoscopic periscope sees a bunch of green vulksstrums and yells for them to get the very fuck out of there already! [11:29]
Adlai it's much easier to look at the nature of warfare and say, "oh, it's changing like this, or like that", but the much more significant changes are in its *objectives* [11:29]
mircea_popescu why ? why should he wish for this ? after all, goebbels well observed "their determination" will make up for the lack of weaponry. [11:29]

mircea_popescu nevertheless, the vet knew enough from experience to know the war is now a defensive affair, and the only thing that matters is not being killed. [11:30]

mod6 Been bogged down with fiat job manditory overtime bs. [22:31]
asciilifeform i am now looking for the mircea_popescu article where he hypothesized that 'bezzle' is, without exception, born out of people doing things that are -ev on the large scale - in just the same way as elements heavier than iron are born in supernova [22:34]
nubbins` heh [22:34]
nubbins` dem mentats! [22:34]
asciilifeform if anyone has the link (or if i hallucinated this existing) please say. [22:34]
* nubbins` applauds softly [22:34]
asciilifeform just to work out example on a napkin. say you, a king, want a pyramid built. could a) conscript ten thousand folks to work to death building it b) debase the currency and hire builders [22:35]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 238450 @#64; 0.00056928 = 135.7448 BTC [-] {9} [22:35]
asciilifeform i contend that (b) necessarily involves the same amount of enslavement as (a) [22:36]
asciilifeform just distributed another way. [22:36]
asciilifeform the thing that makes the pyramid a pyramid, at least in a schoolbook example, is that it is not something anyone (but the king) actually ~wants~ that much [22:37]
asciilifeform while being costly [22:37]
* asciilifeform is roughly aware that the story of actual egyptian pyramids was rather more complicated [22:37]
asciilifeform anyway this thread really cannot go anywhere without a mircea_popescu, so i will leave it here. [22:38]
nubbins` heh [22:39]
nubbins` the pyramid builders had one more thing going for them [22:39]
nubbins` and it's the same thing that the church builders had going for them [22:39]
asciilifeform could be done 'on installment plan', aha. [22:40]
nubbins` altho the church builders were generally more free to fuck off and do something else [22:40]
asciilifeform function of above. [22:40]
asciilifeform didn't really have a 'takeoff velocity' [22:40]
nubbins` nah, what i was going at is that people wanted to do it for free [22:40]
nubbins` but, this is now a relic of the past [22:40]
nubbins` no stonemasons work for the good of their community any longer [22:40]
asciilifeform find me a fella willing to wear a gas suit and wash si in HF all day, every day, 'for the good of' something-or-other. [22:41]
nubbins` not in 1st world anyway. when i was in the sacred valley of peru, right in the middle of a 7 hour hike i came across a bunch of guys building a church outta mud bricks [22:41]
asciilifeform mud bricks - can have. [22:41]
asciilifeform space launch, si fab - no. [22:41]
* menahem has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds) [22:41]
nubbins` asciilifeform the fact that the si and hf exists means the guy's probably not as much of a fuckin rube as the dude who built the church his grandfather was married in [22:42]
nubbins` there's tricks you can still pull and tricks you can't [22:42]
nubbins` salvation is on its way out as a motivator [22:42]
asciilifeform long ago. [22:42]
nubbins` science sort of drives it out [22:42]

mircea_popescu not that the presence of "official committees" isn't a sign that the thing's dead/dying. [22:48]
nubbins` oh, city workers knocked on my door the other day requesting entry for "propertyassessment" [22:49]
mircea_popescu da fuck is that. [22:50]
mircea_popescu the soviet thing ? [22:50]
nubbins` it's where they count your bathrooms and look at your basement and make sure they're charging you enough property tax [22:50]
nubbins` and the homeowner tells you to fuck off [22:51]
* King_Rex has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [22:51]
mircea_popescu you should charge. [22:51]
mircea_popescu "guided tour, naked - $50. add $1000 per oz of clothes. shoes $500 flat fee." [22:52]
mircea_popescu "pictures - you take, $10 each ; of you - free" [22:52]
nubbins` heh [22:52]
nubbins` actually it's the other way around [22:52]
mircea_popescu orly. [22:52]
nubbins` you don't let em in, they're forced to do their assessment from the street [22:52]
nubbins` and you waive the right to appeal o.O [22:53]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=07-08-2015#1229626 << at -ev? << the concept of ev does not apply in that context. [22:53]

mircea_popescu nubbins` no such thing. you can't waive by refusal. [22:53]
mircea_popescu "by sucking my cock you waive your right to complain about its girth" < formally valid law. [22:54]
mircea_popescu "by refusing to suck my cock you waive your right to fart" < formally invalid. [22:54]
nubbins` "by making us guess whether you have a basement apartment, you waive your right to claim that you don't" [22:54]
mircea_popescu nope. [22:54]
mircea_popescu you don't claim "that you don't". [22:55]
nubbins` "by refusing the breathalyzer, you waive the right to claim you're sober" [22:55]
mircea_popescu and this "you made me do" bs is for tired mothers. [22:55]
* nubbins` shrugs [22:55]
nubbins` listen, i don't disagree [22:55]
mircea_popescu except no, you don't. [22:55]
nubbins` but am i gonna spend a year in court arguing it? [22:55]
mircea_popescu if they lose they pay, right ? [22:55]
nubbins` meantime, i have paper to cut, feet to rest on coffee tables... [22:55]
mircea_popescu which means, i'll spend fifty, because hey, it keeps one or more lawyers owing me for the bread i provided them [22:56]
nubbins` the process of making them lose is itself an unreasonable burden [22:56]
mircea_popescu depends. if it is the place sucks. [22:56]
mircea_popescu generally it's quite lucrative. [22:56]
nubbins` i have neither the means nor the will [22:56]
mircea_popescu you need like a patron over there. [22:57]
nubbins` and not just of the arts, either [22:57]
mircea_popescu incidentally, one could prolly make a killing in the north america this way. just - offer patronage to the various people who got paper to cut. [22:57]
nubbins` too many electric cutters [22:57]
nubbins` we're more of a quality over quantity sort of shop [22:58]
mircea_popescu aha [22:58]
nubbins` i do have a lovely plough, cca 14th century tech, that can trim a phone book cleaner than the phone book factory does [22:59]
nubbins` cuts so clean you could shave in 'em. [22:59]
mircea_popescu but not cheaper. [22:59]
nubbins` goodness no. [23:00]
nubbins` this isn't always the metric tho [23:00]
mircea_popescu i have a dog that can slobber better than any race horse :D [23:00]
* nubbins` points to client who paid $1ea for business cards, printed and trimmed by hand, because digital offset shop w/ electronic die cutter did such a shitty job o.O [23:01]
mircea_popescu aaanyway, im done ruining your fun, bbl. [23:01]
