asciilifeform nubbins`: it's supported in the kernel i'm testing [00:06]
asciilifeform which may well be the root of the problem [00:06]
asciilifeform presently testing a build with this crap removed with hot iron [00:06]
mircea_popescu danielpbarron oh i c. stanford technologees! [00:08]
asciilifeform decimation: after 'wickard v. filburn', usg gained - perfectly legally - the power to regulate how many shits we may take per week [00:09]
asciilifeform on account of this, possibly, having an effect on 'interstate commerce.' [00:09]
mircea_popescu http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-03-2015#1071933 << what'd that pricepoint be ? [00:11]
assbot Logged on 26-03-2015 02:26:12; asciilifeform: decimation: when you get above the 'recycled piss' price point, i suspect the 'valuation' is 100% 'veblen good.' [00:11]
mircea_popescu romania has (had ?) some exceptional wines at 5-10 dollars a bottle. [00:11]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: varies by locale [00:11]
mircea_popescu aha. [00:11]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: when i say 'above recycled piss pricepoint' it means getting squarely above the 'for the poor' product category in usa [00:12]
asciilifeform which exists from wine to shoelaces [00:12]
mircea_popescu i broadly agree, but imo veblen-ness behaves strangely, as in : window. from about 100 to maybe 5 or 10k a bottle. [00:12]
mircea_popescu there's a very proper middle, there's good reason to pay 80 rather than 15. [00:12]
* asciilifeform can believe [00:13]
mircea_popescu there's a very proper top. there's a good reason to pay 850k [00:13]
asciilifeform what reason ? [00:13]
asciilifeform that item is now a 'rembrandt' and can be authenticated ? [00:13]
mircea_popescu yup. [00:13]
asciilifeform for an archaeological artifact - sure. [00:13]
asciilifeform but drinking your artifact is lunacy. [00:13]
mircea_popescu (this perhaps easily conglimerated with veblen - but is not same. [00:13]
* asciilifeform knows that it is not the same [00:14]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform similar phenomenon with virgin slavegirls. [00:14]
asciilifeform a 'rembrandt' here is simply an analogue bitcoin. [00:14]
mircea_popescu slavegirl either lost virginity around 15 or 20. [00:14]

mircea_popescu http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-03-2015#1071949 << the importnat part there is the 2nd clause. im sure buncha idiot nerds were becoming a pain. [00:18]
assbot Logged on 26-03-2015 02:34:59; assbot: Michigan legislation would make using drones to hunt or harass hunters a crime ... ( http://bit.ly/1xAmhbS ) [00:18]
mircea_popescu otherwise, hunting from flight already soundly illegal. [00:18]
mircea_popescu BingoBoingo it occurs to me, that shavers character is like out of a novel. first he gets a civil supoena that he doens't ignore. then he self represents. and doesn't do homework. then he loses the suit. civil suit. he loses it. then he pleads not guilty in criminal proceedings. [00:19]
asciilifeform hell, in usa electronically setting off the shell is banned [00:19]
mircea_popescu someone needs to tell him this civil-criminal thing is as close as it gets to double jeopardy in the us [00:20]
mircea_popescu and preserved deliberately - to fuck up... well, basically, him. [00:20]
BingoBoingo It really is [00:20]
BingoBoingo Then again the major reason to retain an attorney in the us is to avoid spam [00:21]
mircea_popescu how exactly is this strat supposed to go : i couldn't make the "preponderence of evidence" standard but i'll make the "absolute proof" ? [00:21]
mircea_popescu "The average tip amount across all platforms is has fallen to ~$0.91, while the average tip amount on reddit is only ~$0.37… we can do better!" [00:21]
mircea_popescu and PART TIME. [00:21]
mircea_popescu incredibly cheap, these clay footed giants. [00:22]
BingoBoingo mircea_popescu> how exactly is this strat supposed to go : i couldn't make the "preponderence of evidence" standard but i'll make the "absolute proof" ? << That or make preponderance of evidence standard use as proof in criminal case [00:23]
mircea_popescu http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-03-2015#1071956 << drone meets buckshot tho... almost worth doing just to film it [00:23]
assbot Logged on 26-03-2015 02:38:56; BingoBoingo: decimation: Depends on what you are armed with. Shooting with shotgun fine. Proper rifle... Hard to tell when/where bullet is coming down after impact. [00:23]
mircea_popescu BingoBoingo but the usg (through usg->da) has already evaluated that [00:23]
asciilifeform just to film it << the chinese filmed it recently [00:23]
mircea_popescu you basing yourself on the theory usg->judge will != usg->da ? [00:23]
asciilifeform (link in log somewhere) [00:23]
mircea_popescu http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-03-2015#1071960 << "withstand" is pretty fuckin dangerous. [00:24]
assbot Logged on 26-03-2015 02:40:21; PeterL: sounds like a great new sport, like skeet shooting, but the target can move in any direction, just need to make a drone that is either so cheap it's disposable or which can withstand shotgun hits [00:24]
asciilifeform and for the type of flying machine normally encountered, 'birdshot' ought to suffice [00:24]
mircea_popescu best way to lose an eye is shoot shotguns at armored targets. [00:25]
BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: Oh my strategy? I retain lawyers because it forces opposition to route annoying phone calls through attorney [00:25]
mircea_popescu not yours lol. his. [00:25]
BingoBoingo Ah [00:25]
BingoBoingo Consider the example of a US bankruptcy case. You can cheaply and easily represent yourself if indigent, however you have to handle communications with all of the debtors, or... You scrape together enough to retain an attorney who has a process for handling that annoyance and also retain your sanity. [00:28]
decimation re: wine < yeah my perception is that > $10-15 is generally good. more expensive wines are also good, but there are loads of pretenders trying to get by on geography [00:28]
decimation once had an excellent german trockenbeernauslese for $50 and it was worth every penny [00:29]
mircea_popescu BingoBoingo or you could just pipe awk through sed [00:29]
BingoBoingo But the shavers strategy seems to be only notable in the sense he pulled off a mega fraud in a space which at the time was especially gullible and vulnerable to mega fraud. [00:29]

BingoBoingo BingoBoingo or you could just pipe awk through sed << Hard on the phone. [00:30]
mircea_popescu you're not required to communicate via phone are you ? [00:30]
mircea_popescu what's this, mandatory webcam bankruptcy court ? [00:30]
BingoBoingo USia, seriously messed up in the things people expect, legally [00:30]
nubbins` building cross-compile toolchain is slo-o-o-o-o-o-ow [00:30]
decimation bankruptcy without debtor's prison is just silly [00:32]
trinque as is debtors prison without real money [00:32]
decimation heh good point [00:32]
asciilifeform usaschwitz is a gigantic open-air debtor's prison already. [00:32]
nubbins` debtor's prison = university [00:33]
nubbins` they make you go first, before you owe the money [00:33]
mircea_popescu i dunno, nubbins`. it'd be a lot better if the tit knew it's caged. [00:33]
mircea_popescu kinda what i like about eastern european campuses. [00:33]
mircea_popescu the tit doth know. [00:33]
nubbins` the tit abides [00:33]
decimation mircea_popescu: have you found any particularly good south american wines? [00:36]
mircea_popescu nope. i've found plenty perfectly acceptable tho. [00:36]
mircea_popescu actually, finding a bad one's more challenging. [00:36]
decimation yeah I've never been disappointed in random $10 malbec from chile/ar [00:37]
danielpbarron https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CA0W9GXUcAAch26.jpg [00:37]
assbot ... ( http://bit.ly/1bvIC06 ) [00:37]
mircea_popescu i tihnk that;s pretty much it. [00:37]
mircea_popescu honestly, i wouldn't expect exceptional out of vineyards that aren;t even 500 years old. [00:38]
mircea_popescu but they do get the reasonable down pat. [00:38]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 7801 @ 0.00022581 = 1.7615 BTC [-] {2} [00:38]
decimation heh. of course many of those french vineyards were decimated by the phylloxera plague [00:39]
mircea_popescu doesn't really matter. terroir's terroir.. [00:40]
mircea_popescu people know wtf this is. etc. [00:40]
nubbins` whoops. dat make clean. [00:40]
decimation mircea_popescu: yes, indeed it is [00:40]
decimation bourdeaux has been overpriced by chinese bezzlars, but it is also legitimately fine tasting [00:41]
mircea_popescu also somewhat of an aquired taste. [00:42]
decimation for folks who are dubious about the specifics, you can generally pick out particular flavors on the 'flavor wheel' like one shown here: http://www.thewinecellarinsider.com/wine-topics/wine-educational-questions/davis-aroma-wheel/ [00:44]
assbot Wine Aroma Wheel from UC Davis ... ( http://bit.ly/1IxbeRC ) [00:44]
mircea_popescu srsly, vinegar, alcohol and sulphur dioxide in the same box ? [00:47]
mircea_popescu mkay... nm. [00:47]
decimation cabernet sauvignon (one of the bordeaux grapes) often has a tobacco flavor for instance [00:48]
decimation the impressive thing really is that the knowledgeable winemaker can bring out so many different flavors with just grapes, yeast, toasted oak, and time [00:49]
mircea_popescu "tobacco flavour" is kinda like "beautiful woman looks", but hey [00:49]
mircea_popescu it's not really like carving. it's farming. [00:49]
decimation farming and processing [00:51]

asciilifeform 'What is the cause of a corked wine? The culprit is usually one of two reasons, TCA, which is short for 2, 4,6 Trichloroanisole. TCA is a type of fungus that occurs naturally. Because TCA is a natural fungi present in the bark of the cork tree, it can be easily be taken into the cork.' << who wants to kill something after reading this [00:57]

assbot Logged on 25-03-2015 05:12:04; mircea_popescu: nubbins` can you store a pellet ? [00:58]
mircea_popescu o.O [00:59]
mircea_popescu cool, but meanwhoile the pellet seemed dudsy [01:00]
danielpbarron for future reference if the right unit comes up [01:01]
nubbins` i read it as pallet earlier. i can store pellets. [01:01]
danielpbarron at 2 USD per, that's still a great deal [01:01]
danielpbarron the blue unit is very nice too [01:02]
asciilifeform was. [01:02]
nubbins` wonder if "national liquidation" selling em on amazon would cut a deal [01:02]
nubbins` probably no huge incentive for them to [01:03]
danielpbarron not with the sudden surge of people buying "crates" of them [01:03]
danielpbarron wow that thing went for 400 ?? that's probably what it cost to ship them [01:04]
danielpbarron oh only 100 units, that's hardly a pallet [01:05]
nubbins` nope [01:09]
nubbins` those were open-box too [01:09]
asciilifeform were. [01:10]
asciilifeform srsly this is a mighty long thread about a dead'n'gone item [01:10]
nubbins` :D [01:10]
nubbins` people are still talking about the ussr 8) [01:10]
asciilifeform that's different - lenin lives forever (TM) l0l [01:11]

asciilifeform done. [01:20]
asciilifeform now... [01:21]

mircea_popescu poor africa. [01:22]
asciilifeform methinks i nailed it. [01:22]
nubbins` woo! [01:22]
asciilifeform (see thread for wtf a watchdog timer is and how i knew to look for it) [01:22]
asciilifeform i do so wonder what kinda joker initialized it AND LEFT IT ON [01:23]
mircea_popescu lol [01:25]
nubbins` who let the watchdog out ;/ [01:25]
mircea_popescu who! wohwho [01:26]

mod6 danielpbarron: ^^^ [01:28]
mircea_popescu ahahaha [01:28]
asciilifeform after turdel/kernel is nailed down, i will post deterministic build for it [01:29]
asciilifeform starting with a particular checkout of 'buildroot' [01:29]
asciilifeform and buncha diffs [01:29]
asciilifeform same as i did for, well, the rest [01:29]
nubbins` rad, i'll be trying this [01:29]
nubbins` so this all fits in nand? [01:29]
asciilifeform the idea in my mind is to eventually have the whole shebang build from buildroot [01:29]
asciilifeform nubbins`: <5MB total [01:29]
* nubbins` claps [01:29]
asciilifeform nubbins`: this is kernel and all userland [01:29]
nubbins` amazing [01:30]
asciilifeform obviously no bitcoind in there, yet [01:30]
assbot AMAZING COMPANY! [01:30]
asciilifeform nothing esp. astonishing here [01:30]
nubbins` step at a time [01:30]
asciilifeform this is about how big a non-developer's linux ought to be [01:30]
danielpbarron Welcome to Buildroot [01:30]
danielpbarron buildroot login: root [01:30]
danielpbarron # [01:30]
asciilifeform try dmesg [01:30]
asciilifeform and top [01:30]
asciilifeform etc. [01:30]
danielpbarron neato [01:31]
asciilifeform most of the comforts of home, are there. [01:31]
asciilifeform i'ma leave it running overnight [01:32]
danielpbarron i can do that too if it helps [01:32]
mod6 cool! [01:32]
asciilifeform in case there are other clock surprises [01:32]
danielpbarron i should unplug the serial connector though right? [01:32]
asciilifeform why? [01:32]
danielpbarron you said it overheats? [01:32]
asciilifeform wai wat ?!! [01:32]
mod6 danielpbarron: and yah, im pulling blocks, need -nodnsseed though [01:32]
asciilifeform never said any such thing [01:33]
asciilifeform if heatsink is removed - yes, overheats [01:33]
asciilifeform but why remove it [01:33]
asciilifeform my serial cable goes right through the closed case [01:33]
asciilifeform i didn't even drill the latter [01:33]
asciilifeform just sorta crushed it in there [01:33]
danielpbarron ohh [01:33]
danielpbarron you meant the pogo board [01:33]
mod6 ok im gonna shutdown this aws instance. [01:33]
danielpbarron yeah i reclosed my unit [01:34]
asciilifeform danielpbarron: feel free to screw the box shut [01:34]
asciilifeform aha [01:34]
asciilifeform so no reason to unplug the serial cable, ever [01:34]
asciilifeform i have no idea how anyone could have gotten the notion that this causes overheating [01:34]
danielpbarron overheating of the serial adapter, not the pogo [01:35]
danielpbarron but clearly i misunderstood you [01:35]
asciilifeform wat?!?!! [01:35]
asciilifeform can't even imagine how chinese that adapter would have to be [01:35]
asciilifeform to ever begin to overheat [01:36]
danielpbarron !b 5 [01:36]
assbot Last 5 lines bashed and pending review. ( http://dpaste.com/1TKX3SN.txt ) [01:36]
danielpbarron just had this show up: [01:37]
danielpbarron # random: nonblocking pool is initialized [01:37]
nubbins` heh. [01:37]
asciilifeform danielpbarron: i must remind you - and everyone else here - that pogo has no rng. [01:37]
asciilifeform none at all [01:37]
asciilifeform not even a very bad one. [01:37]
nubbins` ok, sorry, this turdel, what am i doing with it once gunzipped? [01:37]
asciilifeform nubbins`: it's a kernel [01:37]
asciilifeform you can boot a pogo with it [01:38]
danielpbarron can it be used with net console? [01:38]
asciilifeform doesn't dhcp by default, so no [01:38]
asciilifeform i just tested the nic [01:39]
danielpbarron i don't think mine does dhcp and still works [01:39]
asciilifeform nic works [01:39]
asciilifeform danielpbarron: odd [01:39]
danielpbarron i don't mean now that it's booted [01:39]
danielpbarron imean in uboot [01:39]
asciilifeform i didn't change the uboot [01:40]
danielpbarron setenv serverip 192... [01:40]
asciilifeform dear glub [01:40]
danielpbarron yeah i know, i mean whatever thing i put on it [01:40]
asciilifeform uboot is in a separate nand partition [01:40]
asciilifeform i didn't touch it [01:40]
asciilifeform what i put up just now as turdel-with-rootfs is just a kernel [01:40]
asciilifeform i don't even flash these in, booting from lan [01:40]
danielpbarron same [01:40]
asciilifeform or probably would've worn out my nand already [01:40]
danielpbarron i mean that i had previously flashed in a different uboot [01:41]
asciilifeform and booting arch every time i do a build would be retarded [01:41]
danielpbarron one that lets me set a serverip [01:41]
asciilifeform ah [01:41]
asciilifeform but that normally doesn't get you past the kernel jump-in [01:41]
danielpbarron as it boots it says "so and so is alive' [01:41]
asciilifeform after that it goes straight out ttyS0 [01:41]
asciilifeform so danielpbarron's 'works' does not mean logging in through netconsole ? [01:42]
asciilifeform as in, to the shell [01:42]
danielpbarron i have not tried with the thing you just made [01:42]
asciilifeform aha [01:42]
asciilifeform ok more logical [01:42]
asciilifeform don't expect that to work [01:43]
asciilifeform this turdel is strictly for folks with serial ports [01:43]
asciilifeform barring any other peculiar surprises, we have a linux kernel that builds for pogo, and runs there [01:44]
asciilifeform and an elementary userland to go with it [01:44]
asciilifeform ('busybox'-based) [01:44]
asciilifeform weights slightly under 5MB but can be cut a bit [01:44]
asciilifeform *weighs [01:44]
danielpbarron trying now [01:44]
danielpbarron oh i see what you mean [01:45]
danielpbarron i remember why this didn't work with the netbsd one [01:45]
danielpbarron what is the point of netcat then? [01:46]
asciilifeform which 'this' [01:46]
asciilifeform danielpbarron: the point of the console-over-netcat was strictly to be able to screw with u-boot (adjust boot device, etc.) without having the serial port [01:46]
danielpbarron ah [01:47]
danielpbarron ok nevermind, nubbins` learn to solder [01:47]
asciilifeform this won't be an issue for much longer [01:47]
asciilifeform i'ma fix it so it grabs a dhcp addr. tomorrow. [01:48]
danielpbarron i feel a lot more confident to write documentation on that now [01:48]
asciilifeform btw this is not what the proper kernel will look like [01:48]
danielpbarron i was really confused about netcat to be honest [01:49]
asciilifeform because linux supports the nand just fine [01:49]
asciilifeform and there is no reason to clutter up the precious ram [01:49]
asciilifeform with crap [01:49]
asciilifeform userland (incl. bitcoind) will live in nand [01:49]
asciilifeform right now they're stuffed in the kernel proper [01:49]
asciilifeform when all of this makes sense - i'll post the diff. [01:50]
danielpbarron well i'll also leave mine on overnight [01:50]
danielpbarron oh btw, what color is the light on yours? [01:50]
asciilifeform yellow [01:50]
danielpbarron i was gonna call it orange [01:51]
asciilifeform this simply means the bicolor is on [01:51]
asciilifeform as in, both bits set [01:51]

asciilifeform mircea_popescu: cables << what do those have to do with snowden ? [21:01]
mircea_popescu to imagine the usg, or for that matter any bureaucracy like a PERSON rather than like a disease is imo to be very, very wrong [21:01]
mircea_popescu and in a fundamental way. [21:01]
asciilifeform i mean, sachs thinks they're part of the same chumpatron, yes [21:01]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform from what i understand the theory we're discussing, they'd be all the same thing ? [21:02]
mircea_popescu right. [21:02]
asciilifeform "you mean to tell me we could use these to run bitcoin nodes ourselves ?!?!... << they easily could. not with the 20MB blocks, no, but with the 20MB (and whatever the hell else satanic strange) -enabled- and waiting to get flooded [21:04]
asciilifeform yes, they could. [21:04]
mircea_popescu back to the usg-tb thing : people like a congressman or an ex ciadirector are very poor examples, because a key part of the cure is maintaining very hard counter-terrorism measures on the ground. no colby, owens, petreus etc ever said "you will have to shoot me, and expect to fail unless you bring armored units, and to lose a score of operatives in any case." [21:04]
asciilifeform and they will have every living thing that reads reddit convinced that they invented it, too. [21:04]
mod6 <+mircea_popescu> mod6 ben_vulpes think a <27mb bitcoin could be ? << the current statically linked bitcoind is 5.6mb is that what you mean? [21:05]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform they will, to ~their detriment~. i'm not sure this is getting through, or that im doing a good job of explaining it, but in fact such victories are more expensive than the respective defeats they supposedly keep one from. [21:05]
mircea_popescu mod6 that's what i mean. [21:05]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: i must confess that it is rather unclear to me where the detriment is coming from. [21:06]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform ok, prepare for a lengthy explanation then. [21:06]
asciilifeform if tomorrow a white van picks up the remaining 5000 (?) pogos, how do 'we win' ? [21:06]
* asciilifeform prepared [21:06]
mircea_popescu suppose you are in a room, with women. there's 100 of them. [21:06]
mircea_popescu they're all naked and dripping. suppose that someone for whatever stupid reason does not want you to fuck, because they imagine this is how you don't get to kill them. [21:07]
mircea_popescu now, the reason this is stupid, on multiple planes, we won't dsiscuss here, for space. [21:07]
mircea_popescu BUT! if the solution they come up with is to make an artefact which convinces 99% of the women sorted by stupidity that they shouldn't fuck you, [21:07]
mircea_popescu while also providing sufficient proof for 1% that in fact someone's trying to interfere [21:08]
mircea_popescu this artefact is actually your best bet. [21:08]
mircea_popescu that make sense ? [21:08]
asciilifeform it almost begins to [21:08]
mod6 huh, the statically linked binary is between 5.6 and 5.2mb. On my x86_64 builds it was often around 5.6mb. i just pulled up my paste from the debian x86_32 bit build (http://dpaste.com/1YQR1W7), here's 5.2mb. and yesterday on gentoo x86_32 it was 5.6mb. [21:08]
mircea_popescu so, filling reddit with apparently correct but actually provably falsifiable nonsense is not something that concerns me. [21:08]
asciilifeform but as i understand, it resolves to 'they have lost the mandate of heaven, will be defeated eventually' [21:08]
mircea_popescu it HELPS me. [21:08]
mircea_popescu one direction, yes. [21:08]
mircea_popescu the other direction being that you DO NOT WISH the attenntion of most of those women. [21:09]
mircea_popescu some smell bad. [21:09]
mircea_popescu some are ugly. [21:09]
mircea_popescu NOT having to turn them down personally is empowering for you. [21:09]
asciilifeform the nonsense on reddit does nothing - granted [21:09]
asciilifeform but let's address the van. [21:09]
mircea_popescu imagine a device that kept paul atreides from having to fight all the idiot freemen. [21:09]
mircea_popescu WORTH GOLD [21:09]
asciilifeform l0l [21:09]
mircea_popescu and there's more directions. [21:09]
mircea_popescu as to van : people like a congressman or an ex ciadirector are very poor examples, because a key part of the cure is maintaining very hard counter-terrorism measures on the ground. no colby, owens, petreus etc ever said "you will have to shoot me, and expect to fail unless you bring armored units, and to lose a score of operatives in any case." [21:09]
asciilifeform say van picks'em up. this gives us no useful 'smoking gun' beyond 'sorry chaps, they all sold out last night. no, can't tell ya who bought' [21:10]
mircea_popescu people who go "sure, whatever. make sure you have good AP and check the vests" are not the target of this sort of bs. [21:10]
mircea_popescu the weird thing about the situaiton of usg particularly, and of usg-likes (ie, most cancer) is that "everything is only intended to be used in the situations it wasn't designed to be used". [21:11]
mircea_popescu air superiority not useful in air engagement, but in political engagement sort of bs. [21:11]
mircea_popescu if air superiority comes to air engagement, walks away with so many broken arms it's not worth thinking about. [21:12]
mircea_popescu this is why all the ridiculous military failures of the us since vietnam : it built an army which is only useful as an army if NOT fighting. [21:12]
asciilifeform it is also, apparently, quite useful for rocketing unarmed men in their sleep [21:13]
asciilifeform and occupation of own cities (see boston) [21:13]
asciilifeform and many other interesting things which have yet to be demoed [21:13]
mircea_popescu sorta like a parade army. exactly what the italians had, right before the risorgimento. [21:13]
mircea_popescu right, but none of which are what an army is actually for. [21:14]
mircea_popescu the us army makes excellent police and screwdrivers. bully for it. [21:14]
asciilifeform the equipment (and selected men) steadily gets transfered to police (soon to be unified gendarmerie) forces [21:14]
asciilifeform who are actually trained for the kind of thing that it's all ultimately for [21:14]
mircea_popescu if your crazy genius lab consisted of shitty hot tweezers that made good sandwiches and very bad vacuum pumps that sang a capella i'd think you're uniquely ineffectual. [21:14]
asciilifeform see BingoBoingo's link [21:14]
mircea_popescu and if THAT were your lab, i wouldn't particularly be persuaded by "no tb cure could exist" type of arguments. [21:15]
mircea_popescu because what, if it did exist you'd lunge at it with your waffle making hot tweezers ? [21:16]
asciilifeform so, running with this line of thought, what might we expect 'the cure' to look like? [21:16]
mircea_popescu this, incidentally, is ALSO not controversial - virtually half of all material prepared by the bureaucracy states in one form or another that they're "not prepared for this type of challenge" [21:16]
mircea_popescu it's true : they haven't yet made a thing for something else to use for this. [21:16]
mircea_popescu the cure looks very much like you'd imagine : strong encryption, strong (mental especially) discipline, minimal fortification along the riverline. [21:17]
mircea_popescu as long as it's clear to the da that a court showdown will end his career, you're practically unprosecutable, no matter what you do. as long as it's clear to "special ops" that there will be deaths, you're un-opable, no matter what you do. etc etc. [21:18]
mircea_popescu the entire construction has very speciffic dead points, and they're anything but secret. [21:18]
mircea_popescu swedish military doctrine, notably, is constructed around the core concept that they do not aim to defend the country, they aim to make invasion economically unfeasible. that is all. [21:19]
asciilifeform as long as it's clear to "special ops" that there will be deaths << this is possible if living in a bunker [21:20]
mircea_popescu this does not work against ideologically motivated adversaries, but it works against bureaucracies something splendid. there's always another fire to put out. [21:20]
asciilifeform if ambling about the terrain going to/from day jobs, etc. - they just quietly pick you up [21:20]
asciilifeform what is one to do, wear trotyl vest ? [21:20]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform no, this is possible if maintaining decent op security. [21:20]
mircea_popescu yes, if you must do that, wear vest might work. [21:21]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: make invasion economically unfeasible << you may be thinking of the swiss [21:21]
mircea_popescu but for as long as the "how do they know it's not really an ambush ?" question has an obvious and correct answer, you already failed. [21:21]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform afaik swiss defend themselves by "neutrality" [21:21]
asciilifeform not exactly. [21:22]
mircea_popescu they installed a bunch of autobatteries and shitnow ? /me's not been keeping up. [21:22]

mircea_popescu if ambling about the terrain going to/from day jobs, etc. - they just quietly pick you up << a ro guy famously caught a coupla "secret agents" tailing him in traffic, beat them up (romanian tradition) took them to police station. [21:25]
mircea_popescu huge scandal ensued. [21:25]
asciilifeform http://cs.brown.edu/~sk/Personal/Books/McPhee-Place-Concorde-Suisse << book [21:25]
asciilifeform on .ch army org [21:25]
asciilifeform ^ pretty good [21:25]
mircea_popescu cost teh ro govt millions to try and wash it up, eventually was more or less forgotten. but finding agents willing to tail that guy was difficult for years after. [21:26]

asciilifeform mircea_popescu: that'd work about as well here as it would in peak nazi de [21:26]
mircea_popescu it would work splendidly. [21:26]
asciilifeform they'd demolish the street where you stood. [21:26]
mircea_popescu good. [21:26]
mircea_popescu there's going to be a demolished street bearing your name. [21:26]
asciilifeform we in fact saw this play out [21:26]
asciilifeform in boston [21:26]
mircea_popescu exactly. [21:26]
asciilifeform and what result ? [21:27]
mircea_popescu major losses for teh usg. [21:27]
asciilifeform i dun see it. [21:27]
mircea_popescu maybe our optics differ. [21:27]
asciilifeform they evidently must [21:27]
mircea_popescu maybe it's because you're trying to use some sort of subjective scoring it occurs to me [21:27]
mircea_popescu ie, "what the participant thinks happens matters". [21:28]
asciilifeform not exactly [21:28]
mircea_popescu so in this sense, a junkie managing to score a hit is in fact +ev. [21:28]
mircea_popescu he will act as if he is, yes. but... he's not. [21:28]
asciilifeform say i'm a generic schmuck living in berlin in march, this day in '43 [21:28]
trinque isn't the demolished street only helpful if there are onlookers who care? [21:28]
asciilifeform it looks mostly normal [21:28]
mircea_popescu trinque no. the street was in fact demolished. [21:28]
asciilifeform but stalingrad happened [21:28]
asciilifeform show me the stalingrad [21:28]
trinque mircea_popescu: right, but I recall joe stack day [21:28]
trinque and the ratio of people reacting sanely to not [21:29]
mircea_popescu trinque good for you. not particularly relevant to him. [21:29]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform i dun follow. [21:29]
trinque maybe the ratio's irrelevant [21:29]
asciilifeform where are the -real- cracks in the reich [21:29]
mircea_popescu they had to demolish a street ? [21:29]
asciilifeform and what, they are to go broke from paving a street? [21:30]
mircea_popescu i can trivially send pizza to the "secret" subsecretary of state for whatever, and he's stuck wondering how i know ? [21:30]
mircea_popescu yes, actually. [21:30]
asciilifeform the damage from tsarnavev & tsarnaev was roughly comparable to a small 'pile up' wreck on the highway. [21:30]
asciilifeform not even rounding error. [21:30]
mircea_popescu there is no undertaking more expensive than that pavement job. [21:30]
asciilifeform so perhaps 'demolished a street' is exaggerated [21:31]
mircea_popescu i disagree. [21:31]
mircea_popescu let's take the cheapest way out. familiar wit hthe guy whose name history has lost (:P) that set fire to the whatever so his name may be remembered ? [21:31]
asciilifeform herostratus aha [21:32]
asciilifeform that worked once. [21:32]
asciilifeform (exactly once) [21:32]
mircea_popescu familiar with the (afaik also uncontroversial) theory that the us is a nation of narcisists ? [21:32]
asciilifeform aha [21:32]
mircea_popescu does it seem to you a reasonable plan to demolish streets in this atmosphere ? [21:32]
asciilifeform sure, when you're working with -cowardly- and -imbecilic- narcissists [21:32]
mircea_popescu you think that matters ? [21:32]
trinque seems easy to convince the narcissist it's "not him" [21:33]
trinque would never be him [21:33]
trinque because he's not one of "those people" [21:33]
asciilifeform who take three steps and (fail to) blow (themselves) up with a (fake) rocket sold to them by usg. [21:33]
mircea_popescu trinque understand something : if one million people becomes 1% more likely to lie on their taxes, [21:33]
mircea_popescu the government has lost 3-4% of its revenue. [21:33]
asciilifeform because 'friend of 30 years' vouched for the broker [21:33]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform you're neglecting the only important thing here, which is the actual fine points of the relationship between the abused wife and her husband. [21:34]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: eh no. they take it out of the captive tax cows - sales, shrinkflation, outright moneyprinter [21:34]
mircea_popescu that does not work. [21:34]
mircea_popescu for a government to survive, it must actually have support. [21:34]
asciilifeform rock solid support from the cattle [21:34]
trinque mircea_popescu: there are militia groups around calling themselves "three percenters" [21:34]
mircea_popescu the fake shows of support (you are charlie, really ?) do not help. [21:34]
trinque that kind of thing? [21:34]
mircea_popescu trinque no particular kind of thing. [21:34]
asciilifeform trinque: the 'militia' thing is solid usg provocateurism from day one [21:35]
mircea_popescu if anyone is curious enough, please to read the gorbachev diaries after his 87 visit in romania. [21:35]
asciilifeform trinque: judging by the results [21:35]
mircea_popescu very short story here : ceausescu made old style, stalinist-like show of how supported he is [21:35]
mircea_popescu trying to finesse himself into a senior adviser role for gorby [21:35]
mircea_popescu this amused the russian to no end. [21:35]
mircea_popescu but that aside, it all boils down to the ancient (here and iirc on trilema too) "what's the devil have to pay you to love him" thing. [21:37]
asciilifeform the sovblok fell down with nato holding a seemingly soft (in reality not so much) cushion under its arse as it fell [21:37]
asciilifeform nobody is playing that role for usg [21:37]
mircea_popescu aha [21:37]
asciilifeform the buggers know that 'it'll be their necks' [21:37]
asciilifeform in the way that gorby didn't [21:37]
mircea_popescu what does their knowledge matter ? [21:37]
mircea_popescu they know they suck, now. [21:37]
mircea_popescu what can they do ? [21:37]
mircea_popescu take a simple thing : they all know ms is shit. [21:38]
mircea_popescu what can any one do to fix this ? [21:38]
mircea_popescu still using it. [21:38]
mircea_popescu still shit. [21:38]
mircea_popescu and i can send them pizza, and they have to wonder how i know. [21:38]
mircea_popescu and they go to work... and there it is. MICROSOFT BOOTING NAO. [21:38]
mircea_popescu and yet... what can they do ? [21:38]
asciilifeform it 'works' for them in the sense that no nsa-crypto directorate leaks. no meaningful cia leaks. perhaps they use 'underwood' typewriters instead of microshit ? [21:38]
mircea_popescu part of a system is part of a system is part of a system. [21:39]
asciilifeform damned if i know. but it 'works' [21:39]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform if it didn't how'd you know ? [21:39]
mircea_popescu the german public didn't know about the enigma leaks. [21:39]
asciilifeform if it didn't in the same sense of 'didn't' as elsewhere in usg, i would know [21:39]
asciilifeform or at least suspect [21:39]
mircea_popescu the fact that you don't is perhaps one of the most perplexing characteristics of your otherwise amply perplexing persona. [21:40]
mircea_popescu at least in my head. [21:40]
asciilifeform that don't what [21:40]
mircea_popescu at least suspect. [21:40]
* asciilifeform even more confused [21:40]
asciilifeform well admittedly, i suspect many things [21:40]
mircea_popescu but not this ? [21:40]
asciilifeform but some with better grounding than others [21:40]
asciilifeform let's say herr buffet's winblows machine, where he keeps tabs with his lizard commander, was owned. [21:41]
mircea_popescu but this strawman is in no case how it'd work is it. [21:41]
asciilifeform there is not a public display of this. ergo 'pwner' did not see it fit to do this. [21:41]
mircea_popescu uh. [21:41]
mircea_popescu let's have a better model. [21:41]
nubbins` re: field pogos [21:42]
asciilifeform nubbins`: aha? [21:42]
nubbins` what's the LED gonna do for two weeks while the thing downloads and indexes blocks? 8) [21:42]
asciilifeform nubbins`: blink. [21:42]
trinque not trying to derail what's an excellent convo without me; is for example the ease with which us politicians are bought by *any* paying interest relevant here? [21:43]
nubbins` but that's what a bricked pogo does as well [21:43]
asciilifeform nubbins`: that's because u-boot sets it a'blinking by default [21:43]
asciilifeform nubbins`: easily fixed [21:43]
nubbins` a-haa [21:43]
trinque seems the whole military side can't be considered in absence of the side which can't form one coherent thought [21:43]
nubbins` i'm just musing about indications of progress [21:43]
nubbins` a blink isn't communicating much [21:43]
trinque what admittedly worries me is an event where the military side detaches from the braindead side entirely [21:44]
trinque not sure what happens after that [21:44]
mircea_popescu so, i am a famously grandiose master of women. and a junior girl aspiring one day to the grandiose status of being my slave goes with me and some of the girls to the opera. lights go off, the girls take off their tops all matter-of-course like. she follows suit. why ? and then, afterwards, we discuss it over coffee and cookies. they are enamoured with it. so is she. why ? her "tabs" haven't been leaked, right ? what if [21:44]
mircea_popescu the stripping is something we agreed aforehand to do just to see what her reaction is ? [21:44]
mircea_popescu better model ^ [21:44]
mircea_popescu trinque honestly, this is why i believe the arming of police units with military stock is even done. it makes sense from a "after the end" perspective : you want two mostly balanced forces, because that's your best chance at more or less peaceful stability. [21:45]
trinque yes exactly that [21:45]
mircea_popescu note how it follows quite exactly the cure blueprint discussed above. [21:45]
jurov ;;later tell nubbins` key added [21:45]
gribble The operation succeeded. [21:45]
nubbins` tyvm! [21:45]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: really it is done to make the idea of meaningful (as opposed to merely suicidal; so they hose off the pavement & everybody goes back to work) resistance less and less thinkable [21:46]
asciilifeform that robot was publicly displayed for a reason [21:46]
mircea_popescu i have mydoubts. [21:47]
* nubbins` sends mail, crosses digits [21:47]
mircea_popescu the notion that "sucidal resistence" is deterring anyone has had so much debunking recently... [21:47]
nubbins` ehh they used the robot because enough of the cops were scared enough [21:47]
mircea_popescu ^ [21:47]
mircea_popescu it sends exactly the opposite message. [21:47]
nubbins` there's this famous guy here, leo crockwell. put a gun to his sister's head a few years ago [21:47]
mircea_popescu we discussed some time ago the problem with decimation, re shot cops. [21:47]
* tris has quit (Quit: Leaving) [21:47]
nubbins` cops, having dealt with (and been embarassed by) the guy in the past, descend [21:47]
nubbins` he barricades self, cops bring out robot. [21:48]
asciilifeform the robot is a logical step to the escalation of usg police practice [21:48]
asciilifeform used to be they'd politely ask you to come to the station [21:48]
asciilifeform today, breaking down door at 3am and barrel in your mouth is NORMAL [21:48]

jurov same error. [21:50]
nubbins` wat! "plain text mode" [21:50]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform let's approach this in perhaps a more comprehensible set of terms. end of the world situation, you're behind a wall of sand sacks, enemy behind another. you got two guys left with you, was a full regiment at some point. enemy, unknown. [21:51]
mircea_popescu that the enemy starts suddenly firing like mad is not indicative of his strength. for one thing, bullets are scarce. for the other thing, fear is the end of this game. [21:51]
jurov nubbins`: a) send to yourself, check. b) leave text aempty and attach known good clearsigned stuff as .txt [21:52]
asciilifeform i don't see the fear component here [21:52]
mircea_popescu or in another approach, "asciilifeform:'The laughable CIA story we are asked to swallow, is that the US regime is doing zero against Omidyar, " << we are similarly asked to believe the cia story that the us is doing zero against saudi arabia, which... you know ? or whoever else off a long list. they're not doing zero, they're doing "their best", which is what it is.

mircea_popescu oft evaluates to zero. [21:53]
nubbins` ooo bad sig, looky loo. sec. [21:53]
asciilifeform they aren't rolling out the robots because they fear. but to save cost of a few stormtroopers' life insurance [21:53]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform you don't see the fear component ? recall teh discussion re buses and the fate of war in afghanistan ? [21:53]
asciilifeform and because robot maker (i know exactly who makes it) has an ear in congress [21:53]
mircea_popescu these all are the why in the exact sense girl you picked up in a club stiff drunk is havin sex with you because she liked your record collection and loves your hair [21:54]
nubbins` yeah gmail is mangling it, even in plain text [21:54]
mircea_popescu not because she went to a club and got herself stiff drunk to be fucked. [21:54]
mircea_popescu nubbins` check it out, google can't computer! [21:54]

* assbot (~assbot@unaffiliated/kakobrekla/bot/assbot) has joined #bitcoin-assets [23:09]

* ChanServ gives channel operator status to assbot [23:09]
mircea_popescu srsly, i suspect you ended up intoxicated from 2nd hand material. [23:09]
mircea_popescu the guy is not actually pushing tor and that promise was a fake acct. [23:09]
asciilifeform to be fair, it isn't like his other communiques are pgp-signed. [23:10]
* thomas is now known as evilthomas [23:10]
mircea_popescu sure. [23:10]
mircea_popescu the claim here isn'tthat the cow flies. [23:10]
decimation asciilifeform: another good point, why didn't he use pgp to verify his information? [23:10]
mircea_popescu the claim is that the cow actually gives milk. [23:10]
mircea_popescu (which, also, not signed) [23:10]
asciilifeform decimation: and afaik he never followed any analogue of 'ascii_field can talk and i will say if it was an impostor yesterday' principle [23:11]
asciilifeform never disavowed the garbage [23:11]
mircea_popescu imo that is the correct strategy. [23:11]
mircea_popescu if he universally ignores th egarbage, the garbage has to stand on its own [23:11]
mircea_popescu if he disavows any, the rest can now stand on your "didn't disavow me!!1" [23:12]
mircea_popescu why should HE discuss what other people say ? [23:12]
asciilifeform granted [23:13]
asciilifeform unrelated >> http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/world/wp/2015/03/26/what-we-know-about-andreas-lubitz-the-co-pilot-of-the-germanwings-plane-crash/?tid=pm_world_pop << omg1111!!!11 wr3ck3rz!! [23:13]

assbot Logged on 26-03-2015 19:02:33; asciilifeform: not sure how 'sane' you and i would appear, after a few decades in his position. [23:16]
asciilifeform radiation damage. [23:16]
asciilifeform if any of his biographical material is to be believed, he's been at the futile soapbox thing for decades. [23:17]
mircea_popescu like me ? [23:17]
mircea_popescu or how you distinguish ? [23:17]
asciilifeform the 'futile' part [23:17]
mircea_popescu how is it anything but futile ? [23:17]
mircea_popescu like... ppl still investing on forum, right ? [23:18]
asciilifeform sachs, i meant [23:18]
mircea_popescu what, specifically, is not futile ? [23:18]
mircea_popescu human fucking condition. [23:18]
asciilifeform time for 'zoom to fit image' here [23:18]
mircea_popescu holy shit, i don't even fuck without a condom! [23:18]
asciilifeform (vs 'zoom to fit human condition') [23:18]
mircea_popescu so you're saying this particular zoom quantity has a quality all of its own ? [23:19]
asciilifeform was trying to say, that sachs is successfully censored, for the most part [23:19]
asciilifeform even 'yandex' returns somewhere between 1 and 3 hits for him (depending on luck of the draw) [23:19]
mircea_popescu well... my twitter account got abandoned once and banned once. [23:19]
mircea_popescu reddit thinks it a great success (the 2nd, not the 1st) [23:19]
mircea_popescu so ? [23:19]
asciilifeform where is the sachs version of #b-a ? [23:20]
asciilifeform or of castle mircea_popescustein ? [23:20]
mircea_popescu absence of proof = proof of absence ? [23:20]
asciilifeform granted [23:20]
mircea_popescu same could be argued by rpietilla. [23:20]
asciilifeform but wherever it is - well-hidden. [23:20]
asciilifeform as in, airtight. [23:20]
mircea_popescu he's not insane, he's just been angry for too long. except im pretty sure he has both these. [23:20]
asciilifeform note the date of the linked piece [23:21]
asciilifeform quite a while ago [23:21]
mircea_popescu the jew baiting letter was 2000 iirc [23:21]
asciilifeform and i would have never seen it had he not written a letter to cryptome (see other link) [23:21]
asciilifeform speaking of the snowden thing here [23:21]
asciilifeform http://cryptome.org/2015/03/snowden-cia-fraud.htm [23:21]
assbot ... ( http://bit.ly/1EI5l0e ) [23:22]
mircea_popescu but wouldn't you say that describing that legalese boilerplate as "jew baiting" in 2000 would offer sufficient explanation of why he can't get his shit published in 2012 or w/e ? [23:22]
asciilifeform published by new yorker - sure [23:22]
asciilifeform indexed by google? [23:22]
asciilifeform yandex?! [23:22]
mircea_popescu maybe they pursued a defamation suit, sent c&ds around ? [23:23]
asciilifeform that'd be the one time it worked [23:23]
mircea_popescu understand, it does not take MUCH for an inept derp on the margin of his sanity to lose internet access. [23:23]
mircea_popescu i could do it, generally, for pretty much anyone. [23:23]
asciilifeform incidentally they normally publish the letter [23:23]
asciilifeform but in his case made exception. [23:23]
mircea_popescu afaik they do not any longer [23:23]
mircea_popescu used to, but became too much hassle [23:23]
asciilifeform did for warez, as of a few wks ago when i last saw. [23:24]
mircea_popescu link or something ? [23:24]

mircea_popescu and is no such link [23:26]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: might be geolocatronic shenanigans [23:27]
asciilifeform of the kind google is famous for [23:27]
mircea_popescu it is, which is what i said. [23:27]

asciilifeform dpaste [23:27]
asciilifeform but yes, did see the pics [23:28]
mircea_popescu http://dpaste.com/25VM435 [23:28]
asciilifeform notably, did not see the document linked on cryptome [23:28]
assbot dpaste: 25VM435 ... ( http://bit.ly/1EI5ArT ) [23:28]
mircea_popescu the cryptome piece itself is indexed (if one looks by "last week" results) [23:28]
decimation the cryptome 'letter' is also lulzy [23:28]
asciilifeform i suppose we'll see if there is a gnome with a hand-edited 'google blackhole' chart, soon enough [23:28]
decimation one is confused why the cia would bother to find such a complex excuse to be embarassed and embarass others [23:29]

asciilifeform decimation: the historic, self-admitted 'national character' of cia (as described in their authorized histories, note) is as a gang of 'younger sons' of old-money lords in usa. on account of the elementary fact that these were the only possible recruits because no one else was cultured or spoke languages. [23:30]
asciilifeform (ww2 period) [23:30]
decimation asciilifeform: perhaps, but I can't imagine that the employees look much different than the post office today [23:31]
asciilifeform decimation: depends what is meant by 'employees' [23:31]
asciilifeform the paper-pushers - undoubtedly. [23:31]
mircea_popescu oh, meta-cia as well ? [23:31]
mircea_popescu that i might almost credit. [23:31]
asciilifeform meta-cia i can't even take credit for [23:31]
mircea_popescu right. [23:31]
decimation it seems from the wapo article about the anti-al-quaeda chap that he ran the 'meta-cia' [23:32]
asciilifeform worked great in su. [23:32]
mircea_popescu so alf, guy was in zh two years ago. it never caught. also supression ? [23:32]
asciilifeform i can't insist on it. but can't rule out. [23:32]

assbot Logged on 26-03-2015 19:31:49; nubbins`: may have a job printing posters for big-name punk band :0 [23:32]
decimation how could anyone inside usg accomplish anything at all without creating a meta-something [23:33]
mircea_popescu i hear this is how they get laid, too. [23:33]
asciilifeform can't say the sachs thing is a living animal. but a bone, with just enough meat on it to be worth picking up. [23:33]
decimation as if including the diversity-based hiring quotees could enhance the outcome? [23:33]
asciilifeform decimation: the basic 'meta' picture in my head is the small group inside virtually any gigantic and ossified organization that actually gets things done [23:33]
decimation which is what happens in any large organization [23:34]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform so the skunkworks without the management ? [23:34]
asciilifeform or with own management, which largely functions to insulate it from the nominal management. [23:35]
mircea_popescu this is a very important difference here. [23:35]
mircea_popescu afaik the way this works is, there's someone in management who's not retarded, cultivates these. [23:35]
mircea_popescu as a self-organised thing i never saw it exist [23:35]
asciilifeform almost certainly ww2 vintage. [23:35]
mircea_popescu save in very narrow conditions (say, the it dept) [23:35]
asciilifeform the men, i mean [23:35]
mircea_popescu http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-03-2015#1072895 << wait. and this is unlike normal openssh how again ? [23:37]
assbot Logged on 26-03-2015 19:55:07; asciilifeform: observation: sshd on a box with no rng may as well be replaced by telnetd [23:37]
asciilifeform normal box has at least the entropic component of cpu vs real time clock frequency drift. [23:37]
asciilifeform not to mention user i/o [23:37]
asciilifeform (very scant, but real, 'meat entropy' from human devices, etc) [23:38]
mircea_popescu my poor stab at poor openssh securitah. [23:38]
decimation asciilifeform: I thought it didn't have an rtc [23:38]
asciilifeform anyway that thing under no conceivable circumstances ought to be remotely shellable and sitting on public net at same time [23:38]
asciilifeform decimation: it has a useless rtc [23:38]
mircea_popescu fun fact : you can acutally hand-load the entropy pool. [23:38]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: sure can. [23:39]
decimation why not an init with the auto-kill while loop [23:39]
asciilifeform decimation: init of what [23:39]
decimation I mean init is literally just a while loop [23:39]
decimation no shell [23:39]
asciilifeform decimation: this will make, e.g., setting static ip, impossible [23:39]
decimation could dhcp [23:40]
asciilifeform i don't like dhcp in my house. [23:40]
decimation heh [23:40]
asciilifeform and can't imagine i'm the only one [23:40]
asciilifeform dhcp also means we have to bring back upnp [23:40]
asciilifeform think about it! [23:40]
asciilifeform the demo turdel dhcp's, yes [23:41]
decimation not with a well configured dhcp/firewall [23:41]
decimation but it would be more complex, I agree [23:41]
asciilifeform decimation: how many in target audience will have well-configured anythign? [23:41]
decimation hehe [23:41]
asciilifeform we're probably stuck bringing back upnp regardless [23:41]
mircea_popescu what fire wall anyway ? [23:41]
asciilifeform (as a separate demon, i suggest) [23:41]
mircea_popescu this plugs into router. [23:41]
asciilifeform aha [23:41]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform whai ? [23:41]
decimation the router that runs nat and has a firewall you mean? [23:41]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: because how is anyone to connect to this thing! [23:42]
mircea_popescu decimation that's unused, yes. [23:42]
decimation ??? [23:42]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform ugh [23:42]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: think about it for a minute [23:42]
decimation gulz at your party gonna configure their services [23:42]
mircea_popescu shit. [23:42]
decimation this is why half the 'cloud' shit even exists [23:42]
asciilifeform jurov made this observation in october [23:42]
asciilifeform that upnp will have to be grudgingly brought back, if only as a separate process [23:42]
decimation because nat fucks up everything [23:42]

decimation although it is a large barrel for a laser [23:45]
mircea_popescu i'd expect smoke launchers etc. [23:45]
