The20YearIRCloud texas has more health problems from illegals coming over the boarder than it does with ebola (all healthwise) [00:29]
BingoBoingo Nah. [00:29]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 8219 @ 0.00074336 = 6.1097 BTC [-] [00:30]
BingoBoingo I imagine within the decade Mexico will be more concerned about illegals coming from the US than the other way. [00:30]
mircea_popescu The20YearIRCloud depends how bad it gets. [00:31]
BingoBoingo I have a gut feeling that the big reason more US'ians don't follow through with their going to Canada threats is that Canada is too close to what they are leaving. That and Canada doesn't really want them. [00:31]
mircea_popescu from the looks of it they've got maybe even odds to lose control and end up with an epidemic [00:31]
mircea_popescu if the mortality is 20% from the disease and another 10% from the resulting stampede that's about 100mn deaths in the us by 2016. [00:31]

asciilifeform official excuse is, get this, 'you can't get infected on the plane, we check for fever getting off' [00:34]
asciilifeform if chewbacca lives on endor you must acquit. [00:35]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform there is some merit to this. apparently it's not infectious presymptomatically. [00:35]
asciilifeform sure. [00:35]
ben_vulpes you better lose yourself in the pandemic you own it, you better never let it go you only get one shot do not miss your chance to blow [00:35]

asciilifeform yes. [00:35]
asciilifeform ebama does. [00:35]
mircea_popescu i don't get this. you telling me it's specifically because obama is a kenyan citizen ? [00:35]

mircea_popescu to... what ? [00:36]
bounce that whole patenting thing? [00:36]
asciilifeform to remain relevant a little longer. [00:36]
chetty but seriously when exactly do you cross the line to being infections? the exact second you show a fever? the first time you cough? of just maybe its actually 5 minutes before ... [00:36]
asciilifeform and to desaparecer certain inconveniences in the chaos. [00:36]

asciilifeform chetty: when exactly do you cross the line << from a sane (e.g. soviet) epidemiologist's point of view - when you set foot in a 'hot zone' - you're infectious until proven innocent. [00:37]
mircea_popescu there's good biological reason for this [00:37]

mircea_popescu chetty this is roughly like the "can't get aids from mosquitoes/bugs [00:38]
mircea_popescu generally, broadly speaking you don't. [00:38]
mircea_popescu then again... [00:38]
ben_vulpes ottomans survived regular decimations in constantinople, according to "The Sultans" [00:38]
chetty asciilifeform, I like that definition [00:38]

asciilifeform dub: they're ddosing the public with 'yet another 134 false alarms in city X!' [00:39]
mircea_popescu like, what year. [00:39]
ben_vulpes it was a passing note, take it up with Barber! [00:39]
chetty dub, they took another one into isolation to 'test' [00:39]
ben_vulpes dunno boss. [00:39]
asciilifeform dub: when folks start to burst in shopping malls into bloody mess, they won't be able to keep a lid on it. and they know it. so what can they do? cultivate an atmosphere of bullshit, so the news will be met with maximal skepticism. [00:40]

BingoBoingo asciilifeform: The scariest zombies are always the kind that die. I've never much feared undeath. [00:40]
chetty I don't think they even need actual disease now, the fear may be enough [00:40]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform i wouldn't credit them with that. [00:40]
mircea_popescu it's the cattle. [00:41]
chetty on the not shutting down flights, whats wrong with those pilots and aircrews, they can and should shut it down [00:42]
asciilifeform chetty: they want to eat. [00:42]

mircea_popescu this is possible. who are you ? [00:45]
Quinn_ I created the bitcoin users in a nutshell cartoon. [00:45]
mircea_popescu o hey. [00:45]
mircea_popescu dja wanna make some bitcoin-assets cartoons ? [00:46]
ben_vulpes mircea_popescu: prior, iirc. the context of the remark was that the sultan (subject of the chapter) began to address the plagues that had routinely decimated the capital with european medical techniques. this was, iirc, one of the last three to rule before the sultanate was brought to an end by the young turks et al. [00:46]
asciilifeform chetty: in usa we fear unemployment literally more than bloody death of obola. [00:46]
mircea_popescu does your own statement resolve your objection ben_vulpes ? :) [00:47]
Quinn_ Depends on the content, i have a site which is better to contact me through. www.zenithquinn.com/#!commissions/c171x [00:47]
ben_vulpes o ya :D [00:47]
mircea_popescu Quinn_ how does it depend on the content ? [00:47]
ben_vulpes though the causal relationship is a little murky to me [00:47]
mircea_popescu ben_vulpes merely correlation was proposed. [00:47]
Quinn_ well I don't know what type of cartoons you want, so i can't tell you if i can agree to it or not. [00:48]
mircea_popescu but i'm preselected, i already seen the cartoon you made, so we're going with that type. [00:48]
Quinn_ But do you have a script /idea? [00:48]
bounce ``The Mexican natives in the encomienda system were treated as virtual slaves, were poorly fed and clothed, and were greatly overworked as farm and mine laborers. This harsh treatment appears to have left them particularly vulnerable to epidemic disease.'' -- worked to death, illness finished it [00:48]

mircea_popescu Quinn_ no, not yet. but if you're amenable to work on one i think we can probably come up with something. [00:49]
mircea_popescu bounce i wouldn't credit post-libtard revolution descriptions of history. [00:49]
mircea_popescu i mean sure, it all fits neatly, "prior to the soviet state and everywhere outside of it kids had it rough and didn't even get any icecream" [00:50]
mircea_popescu still... [00:50]
bounce that's not-invented-here.gov, dunno about their political or historic revisionism inclinations [00:51]
Quinn_ Contact me through my site and we can discuss this further! :) [00:51]

mircea_popescu that's the point, actually. [00:51]
mircea_popescu you can contact me through here and we can discuss it further. [00:51]
Quinn_ I don't arrange commissioned work through irc chats, not very trustworthy. [00:52]
mircea_popescu Quinn_ how long does it take you to make one of these ? could you in principle bang out one a week if scripts were availabe ? [00:52]
mircea_popescu it'd work nicely as a weekly featured video for qntra [00:52]
* deedBot has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [00:53]
Quinn_ The amount of work and time dedicated all depends on price. e.g a $300 video that's 30 seconds long will take a week. [00:53]
mircea_popescu hm, irc chats are actually the pinnacle of trustworthy, you just don't know about how it all works yet. [00:53]
mircea_popescu so how long did this video in question take you ? [00:53]
Quinn_ I did it in my spare time between commissions, since it wasn't a source of income so around 3 months [00:54]
Quinn_ and I know nothing about you, a quick google search doesn't reveal anything either [00:55]
mircea_popescu ah so it's very work intensive huh. [00:55]
Quinn_ other than one article citing you as a romanian billionaire which doesn't exactly sound in any way legit. [00:55]

mircea_popescu so the formidable mpoe-pr lives :D [05:57]
asciilifeform (what kind of device? a 2d plane digitizer that sits on usb, meant to be used as 'touch' gizmo. and it pisses GBs of usb disconnect garbage into log -if and only if you don't use it-.) [05:57]
mircea_popescu thestringpuller the "working group" hasn't yet heard of bitcoin [05:57]
mircea_popescu they're belabouring on the outskirts of the fiat world still. [05:58]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform like a canary of sorts ? [05:58]
asciilifeform sorta. [05:59]
asciilifeform why i even mention it? because it's an example of a device that loudly, proudly, pisses on the usb spec (spirit and letter thereof) but is tolerated because for most people - it appears harmless. [05:59]
asciilifeform but build a system where it isn't milked (usb pipe with non-null payloads kept going) and drown in shit. [06:00]
asciilifeform and incidentally, i know just how the author arrived at this - he probably used the 'watchdog' feature of the micro which implements the device [06:02]
asciilifeform i.e., register that cycles its power if not updated every x msec. [06:02]
asciilifeform and only updated guess where - interrupt handler (that's only entered if os is using the digitizer, naturally) [06:02]
asciilifeform i don't even have to disassemble the beast, extract the fw, and reverse it to have a pretty solid guess [06:03]
asciilifeform moral: turdware is everywhere [06:03]

asciilifeform but that's not sane. [06:06]
mircea_popescu there's nothing insane about refusing to support lunacy [06:06]
asciilifeform 'enumerated badness' [06:06]
mircea_popescu the converse, the expectation that everything is s upported, is insane. [06:07]
asciilifeform yes. but it didn't happen in empty space, but from the 'tower of babel' situation [06:07]
mircea_popescu you can't install airplane flaps on your car. somehow this is perfectly comprehensible. why should you be able to use a noncompliant usb stick ? [06:07]
asciilifeform why the everliving fuck does there have to be more than one way to talk to a mouse ? [06:07]
mircea_popescu the false dichotomy here being that either you apple (onlt accept stuff we made) or else foss (accept any turd) [06:08]
asciilifeform i recently had the occasion to read a treatise on machine screws. [06:08]
mircea_popescu the correct solution is, only accept stuff that does x y z [06:08]
asciilifeform somehow, the world arrived at a handful of precisely defined thread types that are interoperable. [06:08]
