asciilifeform | (can anybody identify the kbd ?) | [10:20] |
asciilifeform | platinum toilets ftw! | [10:20] |
mircea_popescu | it's so bizarre that the usg doesn't embrace herbalife. yes all the arguments against it are solid, but they cut just as much against say, apple. google. | [10:21] |
mircea_popescu | they're all herbalifes. | [10:21] |
asciilifeform | (they are not true iridium toilets because i can identify them visually) | [10:21] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: where's the consumer direct-sale chumpatron in, e.g., apple ? | [10:21] |
asciilifeform | last i checked, they didn't offer 'get ipnohe for selling five' | [10:22] |
mircea_popescu | doh ? | [10:22] |
mircea_popescu | "get to be an iphone's worth of cool by telling all your friends" ? | [10:22] |
asciilifeform | then mercedes is also pyramid ? | [10:22] |
mircea_popescu | if apple isn't direct-marketed then what is ? and what's an apple fan ? | [10:22] |
mircea_popescu | notrly. mercedes is sold by poor beta muslim boys telling each other THEY WOULD buy one | [10:22] |
mircea_popescu | not by pete telling them to buy one. | [10:23] |
mircea_popescu | heck, who knows, maybe ackerman's mping all over "classic" finance, started with the easier to lance boil. | [10:25] |
asciilifeform | by this notion all consumer crud is 'direct market' | [10:25] |
asciilifeform | but the traditional definition remains, does chump take money from chump. | [10:26] |
mircea_popescu | i think that definition was never stated as such. | [10:26] |
mircea_popescu | does chump BENEFIT from chump. yes, he does. | [10:26] |
asciilifeform | if chump sends the new chump on his merry way to the crapple store, we have a scam, sure, but how is it 'mlm' ? | [10:26] |
mircea_popescu | and by this definition all consumer crud IS IN FACT consumer crud. which yes. it is. | [10:26] |
mircea_popescu | i would sya it is. | [10:26] |
asciilifeform | where are the hierarchical levels then ? | [10:27] |
mircea_popescu | ... | [10:27] |
mircea_popescu | they worship steve, don't they ? why ? | [10:27] |
mircea_popescu | becauyse of the frustrated mlm need. | [10:27] |
asciilifeform | (i.e. what would be an advanced crapple pusher, vs rank-and-file) | [10:27] |
mircea_popescu | just because they're not lame as fguck about it, going telloing kids what the levels "should be" doesn't mean they don't exist. | [10:27] |
assbot | [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 65300 @ 0.00056101 = 36.634 BTC [-] | [10:27] |
mircea_popescu | you realise crapple only hires salespeople from the fanbase yes ? | [10:28] |
asciilifeform | can mircea_popescu give example of the levels ? | [10:28] |
mircea_popescu | steve ; everyone else is already levels. | [10:28] |
asciilifeform | the crapple salesmen are wage labourers | [10:28] |
asciilifeform | afaik they get no commission. | [10:29] |
mircea_popescu | not fully. | [10:29] |
mircea_popescu | they get less than they'd ask for to deliver the same work, if they weren't in the apple ml. | [10:29] |
mircea_popescu | mlm* | [10:29] |
asciilifeform | any public evidence that they are paid below market rate for other clerks ? | [10:30] |

mircea_popescu | http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=15-02-2016#1405966 << it's actually the only way i see to make an actual honest display shield. mm thick plate box, micron-range holes drilled in one face. | [17:02] |
assbot | Logged on 15-02-2016 03:56:29; asciilifeform: this kind of thing would be an expensive but very decent display-shield. | [17:02] |
mircea_popescu | and THAT can be nickel, or anodized zinc or w/e the fuck you feel like. | [17:02] |
asciilifeform | and altschuller tells us how to 'cheat in wolf form' and make this without any lasering. | [17:03] |
asciilifeform | (he wrote this before laser was available to su industry at all) | [17:03] |
mircea_popescu | aha. | [17:03] |
asciilifeform | (answer: cast metal into mold containing fibers, which disintegrate but not immediately. instant holes.) | [17:04] |
mircea_popescu | due to the low power consumption of modern displays, this really can just be the mount. | [17:04] |
asciilifeform | aha | [17:04] |
asciilifeform | also one can make a 'poorfag' version using pcb vias | [17:05] |
asciilifeform | (solid copper - heavy-gauge pcb; many vias; mount surface mount led opposite side; attach pcb-mounted shield to led side) | [17:06] |
asciilifeform | for extra points, have two or more layers of this, ~where the holes don't line up~. how does the light pass? sheet of glass between! partial internal reflection. | [17:09] |
mircea_popescu | i almost wouldn't even need my "run gamma at 40%" thing | [17:10] |
asciilifeform | essentially one is making 'notch filter at terahertz' metamaterial. | [17:10] |
asciilifeform | as in, pass light but not 'radio' | [17:10] |
mircea_popescu | moreover, given the technology of making cds | [17:11] |
mircea_popescu | one should probably just make a cd based filter | [17:11] |
asciilifeform | as in pressed hologram ? | [17:12] |
asciilifeform | would work, but a bit thin | [17:13] |

asciilifeform | jurov: i always found it interesting that you can't get display cable ~optic~ | [17:53] |
asciilifeform | (afaik) | [17:54] |
asciilifeform | even though it would be, in all likelihood, ~cheaper~ to make | [17:54] |
asciilifeform | (no need for shield, for example) | [17:54] |
jurov | why cheaper? | [17:54] |
jurov | judging from optical usb extenders, it's not | [17:54] |
asciilifeform | no copper | [17:54] |
asciilifeform | jurov: because, again, the ~extender~ is an active circuit | [17:55] |
asciilifeform | and made in quite low volume | [17:55] |
asciilifeform | i am speaking of: why the everliving fuck is the gpu connected to the lcd with anything other than a single strand of fiber. | [17:55] |
mircea_popescu | because fiber needs terminators and doesn't take well to damage. | [17:56] |
BingoBoingo | https://i.imgur.com/IuixMHN.jpg | [17:56] |
assbot | ... ( http://bit.ly/1oko29R ) | [17:56] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: terminators !? | [17:57] |
asciilifeform | nein | [17:57] |
asciilifeform | you must be confusing it with copper coax | [17:57] |
asciilifeform | and have you tried bending copper dvi cable ? | [17:57] |
asciilifeform | 'takes well to damage' is not a thing | [17:57] |
mircea_popescu | hm | [17:57] |
asciilifeform | and no consumer ever repairs a cable, wtf | [17:58] |
jurov | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOSLINK pediwikia says consumer optic cables have high attenuation and still fragile | [17:59] |
assbot | TOSLINK - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ... ( http://bit.ly/1Ocy01x ) | [17:59] |
asciilifeform | so high that three metres is too long ?! | [17:59] |
mircea_popescu | optic cables are more fragile than anything found in derp house. | [17:59] |
asciilifeform | soo? he bends, buys another. | [18:00] |
asciilifeform | learns not to bend. | [18:00] |
asciilifeform | just as chumpers learned not to drop ipnohe. | [18:00] |
BingoBoingo | In my experience it is same people who drop pnohe that repeat that mistake indefinitely | [18:01] |
jurov | also, to have gigabit 4K bandwidth, you need singlemode fiber. and that has much more expensive connectors | [18:01] |
jurov | defon not consumer stuff | [18:02] |
mircea_popescu | i don't think you understand this whole "Consumer" thing all too well. | [18:02] |
mircea_popescu | learns ? what the fuck is wrong with you. | [18:02] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: 'learns' in the circus sense. the lions that did not learn, went for bear food | [18:02] |
mircea_popescu | heh | [18:03] |
asciilifeform | (in what other sense do konsoomerz learn.) | [18:03] |
mircea_popescu | in no sense. | [18:03] |
jurov | i happen to prefer cables that are't sensitive to get pinched inadvertently | [18:04] |
asciilifeform | so don't pinch! | [18:04] |
mircea_popescu | i suspect that's the operational difference. yes you can't really bend sharply a dtvi cable. | [18:04] |
mircea_popescu | nevertheless, you CAN put a heavy item on it. | [18:04] |
mircea_popescu | not so with optics. | [18:04] |
asciilifeform | i'd like the cable that can be 1km long and doesn't radiate, plox | [18:05] |
mircea_popescu | asciilifeform buy fiber, not like it's sold by permit. | [18:05] |

assbot | Successfully updated the rating for mircea_popescu from 1 to 2 with note: Esteemed cult leader and bitcoin expert. Have learned much from reading his offerings. | [18:20] |
mircea_popescu | much like say a social worker would be "oh, this solution doesn't provide work for enough social workers" | [18:20] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: no, it is 'this solution requires money' | [18:20] |
mircea_popescu | mno. | [18:21] |
asciilifeform | say i want machine that does not radiate, ~under the open sky~ | [18:21] |
asciilifeform | because unlike mircea_popescu , i do not have a mobile aluminum dirigible cabin. | [18:22] |
mircea_popescu | would you stop trying to support this insane lifestyle of "i need laptop" ? | [18:23] |
asciilifeform | note, it is an entirely legit thing, to design for dirigible, for reactor. but i do not have these things. so i don't design for them. | [18:23] |
mircea_popescu | it is not a way to live. | [18:23] |
mircea_popescu | it already forces you to eat from the latrine. | [18:23] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: if you even knew what other things i do that are 'no way to live' | [18:23] |
mircea_popescu | you'll never have a good laptop. it is not possible. | [18:23] |
asciilifeform | was possible in 1995 | [18:24] |
asciilifeform | ergo still is. | [18:24] |
mircea_popescu | you'll also not have easy, meaningless sex with random women that you enjoy. and you won't be able to eat from garbage cans and always find exactly what you wanted to find in there. | [18:24] |
mircea_popescu | the solution to these faux problems is always the same, "don't want very much". which will make random offering perfectly fine. | [18:24] |
mircea_popescu | but then you don't want to be a mouse. | [18:24] |

mircea_popescu | this is not properly called "designing". | [18:30] |
mircea_popescu | "we don't have iron, so we make swords of the reeds we have" is not sense. | [18:30] |

mircea_popescu | in other vaguely lulzy news : previous (socialist) argentine government "signed" a treaty with china, allowing them a fancy new "satellite" base in the far south, right next to the pole. | [21:18] |
* | toffoo has quit () | [21:19] |
ben_vulpes | well that was a miserable idea | [21:19] |
mircea_popescu | the current "we will pay lizardhitler cronies" guy is going to try and renegotiate that thing to add a clause that the base is "not to be used militarily". as if it has any other fucking purpose than ready bombardment of us/canada. | [21:19] |
mircea_popescu | none of this is, of course, ever to be reported in the pravda. | [21:19] |
mircea_popescu | suffice it to be said that if you're looking for a place to live in case of open hostilities with china (not that there's any likelyhood of that), texas way better than chicago or new york. | [21:20] |
BingoBoingo | mircea_popescu: Where's your qntra submission on this subject? | [21:21] |
ben_vulpes | best of best is to live in incuntsequential hipster holes | [21:29] |
BingoBoingo | ben_vulpes: How do you know the hipster holes won't be cleansed for aesthetics? | [21:29] |
pete_dushenski | sort of a lot of expense for the sake of aesthetics | [21:31] |
BingoBoingo | pete_dushenski: How do you judge the cost of making a Deepwater port and fulfilling Teller's dream at the same time? You clease the coastal hipster holes. | [21:32] |
mircea_popescu | BingoBoingo meh, kinda low level lulz. | [21:37] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: antarctic ?! | [21:37] |
mircea_popescu | yeah | [21:37] |
asciilifeform | texas?! | [21:37] |
asciilifeform | explain? | [21:38] |
mircea_popescu | i'd gladly explain if you used a verb in your questions like sane people. | [21:38] |
asciilifeform | ah i get it, nm | [21:38] |
mircea_popescu | the miracle of forcing verbs in verbiage! | [21:38] |
asciilifeform | btw idea belongs to chelomey | [21:39] |
asciilifeform | (contemporary of korolev) | [21:39] |
mircea_popescu | aha. | [21:39] |
asciilifeform | boil the 'great lakes' | [21:40] |
asciilifeform | of course this was back when usa had factories there. | [21:40] |
asciilifeform | i still don't get why cn would need antarctic base when it can shoot over north pole. | [21:42] |
asciilifeform | like sane people. | [21:43] |
BingoBoingo | In case Russia gets alarmed by CN launch | [21:43] |
asciilifeform | l0l | [21:44] |
BingoBoingo | The Russia/China Border not disputed. Better to launch over all the Americas where who the fuck in the flight path can complain? | [21:45] |

BingoBoingo | Eh, why not just weaponize a panamax or a suezmax a la best korea | [21:46] |
asciilifeform | a fedex crate, aha. | [21:47] |
BingoBoingo | Problem with orbit is keeping it, and problem with nuke is maintenance | [21:48] |
asciilifeform | good for ~20 yr | [21:49] |
BingoBoingo | And then you gotta get it down safely or peace has an expiration date | [21:49] |
asciilifeform | also remember that orbit of comm sats is low because tx/rx | [21:50] |
asciilifeform | nuke needs only receive. | [21:50] |
