asciilifeform gentlemen! anyone else play with my patches from last night ? [00:23]
BingoBoingo asciilifeform> decimation: no good at all as faraday cage, they're frame only << But if you replaced the drywall with classically done plaster... [00:23]
asciilifeform BingoBoingo: read about utility ingresses for faraday chambers some time [00:24]
asciilifeform imho the preoccupation with man-sized faraday cages is a classic usg idiocy [00:25]
BingoBoingo BingoBoingo: read about utility ingresses for faraday chambers some time << might as well look it up nao while waiting waiting for 1nd and third opinions on the orphan slaughter [00:25]
asciilifeform plugging the wrong end of the funnel as always [00:25]
asciilifeform last i heard, they had a mobile one made for the fuhrer himself [00:25]

RUchimp No need to voice, just gonna idle and see whats goin on. [00:28]
asciilifeform RUchimp: consider reading the log on www [00:28]
asciilifeform RUchimp: log.bitcoin-assets.com [00:28]
decimation asciilifeform: did you see this: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/05/28/avago_broadcom/ [00:29]
BingoBoingo RUchimp: Introductions never hurt [00:29]
decimation avago is probably going to slice and dice broadcom, sell off peices [00:29]
asciilifeform if broadcom were hit by plague or asteroids, i'm not certain that i would notice or care [00:30]
asciilifeform and would certainly shed not one tear. [00:30]
asciilifeform unfortunately, their products will remain with us. [00:30]
decimation heh yeah agreed [00:30]
RUchimp Sorry, using a different handle [00:31]
* RUchimp is now known as birdman [00:31]

decimation intel is gonna buy altera, after minting their chips for years [00:32]
* asciilifeform waits for cocacola to buy pepsi [00:33]
decimation heh [00:33]
decimation more like pepsi being bought by its combined bottlers [00:33]
asciilifeform the not-so-secret here is that intel wants to bake fpga directly on x86 die [00:33]
asciilifeform for the usg market [00:33]
asciilifeform which orbits around deep-packet shenanigans and likes fpga [00:33]
decimation sure [00:34]
asciilifeform and infinite money [00:34]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 8982 @ 0.00033584 = 3.0165 BTC [+] [00:34]
decimation but what's the probability that intel can deliver this functionality with non-retarded tools? [00:34]
asciilifeform decimation: there is no question of non-retarded tools. in so far as is known, intel's entire toolchain is winblows [00:34]
asciilifeform even their joke of an 'open' bios is built in vs, with megs (yes) of .bat script as build chain [00:35]
asciilifeform at any rate, this product is 'not for people' [00:35]
decimation also note that this is a tacit admission by intel that they can mint lots of transistors but have no idea how their customers want the transistors to be arranged [00:36]
asciilifeform afaik every attempt by intel to sell something other than x86 has tanked [00:36]
decimation yeah they keep trying to make mobile shit [00:37]
decimation the writing on the wall is that the xeon stuff isn't gonna keep making money forever, especially when intel can only deliever 20% improvement per 5 years [00:38]
BingoBoingo afaik every attempt by intel to sell something other than x86 has tanked << I remember the netbook dying as soon as AMD had chips that could win this niche. [00:39]
decimation umm, where are amd netbooks? [00:42]
decimation netbook died because it cut out profits for everyone [00:42]
decimation https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2015/05/tisa-yet-another-leaked-treaty-youve-never-heard-makes-secret-rules-internet/ < "But the latest leak has revealed more. The agreement would also prohibit countries from enacting free and open source software mandates" [00:42]
* asciilifeform thought that it died because machine for viewing porn in toilet doesn't need keyboard [00:42]
decimation asciilifeform: yeah but did you notice that the tablets that 'replaced' the netbook have less functionality? [00:43]
asciilifeform naturally [00:43]
decimation and cost twice as much [00:44]
trinque https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/tech-tips-and-tricks/streaming-tv-shows.html << this was a particularly weird market for intel to get into, afaik nothing has come of it [00:50]
trinque hm that one doesn't describe exactly what I was looking for [00:51]
trinque I recall Intel saying they were going to make their own streaming service [00:51]

BingoBoingo * asciilifeform thought that it died because machine for viewing porn in toilet doesn't need keyboard << Life for it I saw on campuses was people who wanted laptop, but didn't want to carry a laptop. Same people the next years I saw with heavier tablet/keyboard combos [00:52]
trinque http://newsroom.intel.com/community/intel_newsroom/blog/2014/01/21/verizon-to-purchase-intel-media-assets << bahahaha [00:53]
* baghodler has quit (Quit: baghodler) [00:54]
BingoBoingo netbook as notetaking machine was a solid niche [00:55]
asciilifeform BingoBoingo: the crapification of 'netbook' stands out in clear, cartoon colours when compared with something like the 1997-1999 toshiba 'libretto' [00:56]
BingoBoingo yeah [00:56]
asciilifeform machine in all respects similar, but with decent keyboard and sans the 'disposable' chinese plastic feel [00:56]
trinque asciilifeform: apparently now refers to a tablet monstrosity http://www.toshiba.com/us/computers/laptops/libretto [00:56]
asciilifeform all models after '110ct' were halfway to the kind of garbage now familiar as 'netbook' [00:57]

asciilifeform decimation: in the same place as modern lisp machine [01:01]
decimation or a portable machine with error correcting memory? [01:01]

decimation other than the obvious ergonomic issues [01:03]
asciilifeform why is a pine stake worse than a bar stool? [01:03]

mircea_popescu google, you suck. [01:04]
mircea_popescu decimation the notion of carrying a portable cooker in your lap as a male should be pretty self-defeating [01:04]
decimation yes, but in exchange for poor posture, you gain 'can carry with luggage' [01:04]
decimation mircea_popescu: of course, don't rest it on your balls [01:04]
mircea_popescu because what, i'm the servant, and gotta make do with whatever ? [01:04]
trinque lol I try to keep the thing away from the balls [01:04]
mircea_popescu luggage is what i say it is [01:04]
mircea_popescu not what some clerk somewhere feels like lifting up [01:05]
asciilifeform e.g. trinitron [01:05]
asciilifeform (what do you do when clerk drops the trinitron ?) [01:05]
mircea_popescu but all this aside, not that more's needed : i never bought a premade computer in my lyf. [01:06]
asciilifeform charge the airline what it'd cost to blow a new one ? [01:06]
mircea_popescu i don't see why i would, either. [01:06]
decimation or you want information in your console while in transit [01:06]
decimation that's a better argument, but still lame given that most computing components use close designs; firmware [01:06]
decimation in fact, why not use a stallman 'libreboot' laptop? [01:06]
mircea_popescu by this reason, since all humans use closed designs, there's no benefit to accounting [01:07]
mircea_popescu cmon. [01:07]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 116553 @ 0.00033976 = 39.6 BTC [+] {4} [01:07]

cazalla interesting even [01:07]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: y'know, at some point one of us needs to write the canonical 'specificity of diddling theorem' article. [01:07]
mircea_popescu i thought it was written [01:08]
asciilifeform not afaik [01:08]
* badon_ is now known as badon [01:08]
asciilifeform iirc it exists as two sentences in an old mircea_popescu piece, and several dozen lines of log here [01:08]
mircea_popescu well then go for it! [01:09]
decimation !s diddling [01:09]
assbot 70 results for 'diddling' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=diddling [01:09]
trinque ^ I'd have expected far more [01:09]
* asciilifeform shiva hands full, will be writing broadcast -and- testing 32 rng units this weekend [01:09]
trinque any idea what a cardano might cost yet? [01:10]
decimation asciilifeform: I certainly understanding that having firmware in hand is not a full defense against diddling, but it is a strong start [01:10]
asciilifeform trinque: as a rough guide, expect it to cost around what your computer cost. [01:11]
asciilifeform (deliberately roomy set of bounds here, yes) [01:12]
trinque yep [01:12]
decimation raspberry pi or xeon server? [01:12]
trinque as the thing has no real alternative.. should command a price that reflects it [01:13]
asciilifeform trinque: understand that the first crate will be given to mircea_popescu, who has the unenviable chore of deciding precisely what to do with it [01:13]
trinque ah k [01:13]
mircea_popescu i've had worse. [01:14]
* asciilifeform tries to picture this 'worse' [01:14]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform what are we looking at here, product available by autumn ? [01:14]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: if our manufacturing phriends continue their good work, then very much so. incidentally i am in the process of investigating a possible alternative firm [01:15]
asciilifeform just in case. [01:15]
mircea_popescu cool. [01:15]
* asciilifeform really wishes presently that someone might fix the engine in therealbitcoin train, because presently it appears to only move when i push it [01:17]
asciilifeform for example, anyone try a uclibc build yet ? [01:18]
asciilifeform it is necessary for, e.g., pogo [01:18]
asciilifeform and overall retardation removal [01:19]
mircea_popescu lol conductor's fallacy eh. [01:19]
asciilifeform ? [01:20]
mircea_popescu jurov's trying to get you folks to stop ruining his mailer an mod6's been profiling to quote jus' off top of head [01:24]
cazalla how's this.. muh bank uses this select 3 icons from 9 icons as 2FA when logging in except they've recently changed all the icons except the 3 i use to login [01:27]
trinque probably did that for everbody, and made some distinction about "legacy" icons or some nonsense [01:27]
* copumpkin has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [01:28]
trinque re: bitcoind thread, I'm a hair above useless in C++, and also swapping heavily; however, maybe a page on the foundation site for available missions might help? [01:28]
mircea_popescu lulzy [01:28]
trinque as somebody who might have an afternoon here or there, that plus the right sequence of patches to get to whatever the present state is would help me contribute time efficiently [01:29]
mircea_popescu trinque it's a republic not a corporation, ppls are supposed to pick up stuff they're good at and a good fit for [01:29]
mircea_popescu corporation is "gotta give everyone something to fill their company hours with" [01:30]
asciilifeform l0l [01:30]
trinque yeah, that makes sense [01:30]
* asciilifeform fondling argentine 100 peso banknote in left hand, notices mention of 'social justice' on one side [01:31]
trinque probably no easy way to make the deturding casual side-work [01:32]
asciilifeform l0l what do you suppose it is for me [01:33]
trinque hey man, you lamented the lack of hands [01:33]
trinque I suspect we all have to eat [01:33]
trinque however, when the republic starts its first software company give me a holler :D [01:33]
asciilifeform eh you need money for that [01:34]
trinque actually, I guess the ministry of games takes that cake [01:34]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform el minimo respeto! [01:34]

cazalla that is probably the worst tumblr link i've yet to see in here [06:53]
mircea_popescu cazalla nice. [06:54]
mircea_popescu haha, why ? [06:54]
mircea_popescu "raffic which is claimed by Zhang to be around 2500 unique visitors per day." lulziest part. [06:55]
cazalla because not even samuel l jackson had that in mind when he said he eats everything [06:57]
cazalla fuck, got my zhous and zhangs mixed up [06:57]
mircea_popescu you never ate a chicks nose drool ? [06:58]
cazalla these guys just moved on from alibaba to bitcoin it seems [06:58]
cazalla not consciously but hey whatever pleases you [06:58]
cazalla you do all sorts of crazy shit on that sherm eh [06:59]
mircea_popescu apparently. [06:59]
cazalla watched that last night, at least for the first time in full, not a bad movie [06:59]
mircea_popescu true romance ? it's great, provided you have the director's cut [07:00]
mircea_popescu what the studio released is piss. and the comparison an interesting exercise in how "management" can fuck up a movie even when having everything needed for greatness in a neat package. [07:00]
cazalla well shit, i'm not sure which copy i have [07:01]
mircea_popescu does it end with them on a beach ? [07:01]
cazalla yeah, with a kid [07:01]
mircea_popescu piss. [07:01]
cazalla what's the difference, just the ending? [07:02]
mircea_popescu some bits here and there, and the ending, yeah. [07:03]
mircea_popescu but qt was fucking incensed at the time, and i agree he had a point. [07:04]
chetty I been hearing an ad for a TV show ...Dark Web, apparently all about Silk Road [07:05]

assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 60400 @ 0.00032933 = 19.8915 BTC [-] [07:11]
cazalla well it wouldn't be the first time tv writers have use chans for story lines [07:13]
mircea_popescu or vice-versa >D [07:14]
cazalla yeah that too.. other idea is that the writers are shitposting about their show to drum up some viral marketing type shit knowing that /pol/ will and has run with it [07:15]
mircea_popescu anyway, in fairness what i'm saying is that i don't believe that chan is impressive enough in bodycount to constitute a market anyone would wish to cater to, creating the tv version of hot topic, nor intellectually impressive enough to constitute anyone's thought leadership. [07:15]
mircea_popescu but i could be wrong on either score, obviously. [07:15]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 75700 @ 0.00032838 = 24.8584 BTC [-] {3} [07:16]
mircea_popescu if you feel like giving me a top 5 or whatever most relevant ideas coming out of /pol/ i'd read it. [07:16]
cazalla 5 might be a little tough [07:17]
mircea_popescu i'll take anything. [07:17]
cazalla well i guess the multi-culti immigration might be a start, not that i mind immigrants but i think they are somewhat right in that it undermines social trust in a community [07:20]
mircea_popescu this is by no means a novel point, or all that aptly expressed there, is it ? [07:21]
cazalla i just see my own anecdotes mirrored there.. grew up in a homogeneous society where everywhere knew everyone.. 25 years later that is no longer the case [07:22]
cazalla but then the argument usually veers towards this being the fault of jews [07:23]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 43600 @ 0.00032781 = 14.2925 BTC [-] [07:23]
cazalla but then that is sorta like blacks blaming whites for their predicament [07:23]
mircea_popescu well at least it's not blaming the freemasons. [07:23]
mircea_popescu or loose women [07:24]
cazalla they blame both of those too [07:24]
mircea_popescu (actually, there IS a trend of angry older men trying to make these issues about "whores", but general social discourse's keeping them well repressed atm) [07:24]
mircea_popescu ahga. [07:24]
cazalla they blame loose women for the down fall of the family unit [07:25]
cazalla don't get me wrong.. i like the idea of a strong family unit.. but i also like the idea of loose whores provided the strong family doesn't find out [07:25]
mircea_popescu anyway i suspect there isn't a way out. historically, the "civilised world" was rich and powerful because it enjoyed a monopoly on trade, built out of scientific and military effort. the twerps in question, joe average, decided to quit supporting the industrial-military complex (chiefly because they got burned twice in 16-18 and then in 39-44, and it hurt badly, esp the 2nd time, and so it's understandable) [07:26]
mircea_popescu as a result, it collapsed, and as a result there is absolutely no reason they should make more than a dollar a day. [07:26]
mircea_popescu which is where everyone's headed, from alabama to tasmania. [07:26]
mircea_popescu which i don't see any problem whatsoever with, but then again i'm privileged, or as alf put it, "rootless kosmopolitanski" [07:27]
cazalla so i still read /pol/ daily but i can easily point out where i am hypocritcal on just about everything discussed there.. do as i say, not as i do sort of thing is really what it comes down to [07:27]

assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 14464 @ 0.00033814 = 4.8909 BTC [+] {2} [07:28]
mircea_popescu the question of "what exactly is so speshul about joe doe that he should live other than in a hovel like random nigerian" is paramount, and none of the anti-imigration types seem inclined to address it. [07:28]
mircea_popescu so... why is he special ? [07:28]
mircea_popescu once we get an answer to that we can start discussing how to oppress the nigerian again, at which point "immigration policy" may be on the agenda. not befoar. [07:29]
mircea_popescu and the family unit is more of the same. why should 85% have any access to women at all, and why should the 1% not get 94% of all the pleasantly nubile stoyas out there, with the remainder 6% going to the 14% aspirational betas ? [07:30]
cazalla well he's not special and in saying that, i'm not special, but i like but can't explain my desire of social cohesion, which is why i like the hitler videos with endless crowds [07:32]
mircea_popescu that's the natural distribution in a 2 million strong society : 10k blokes with a harem averaging high 80s headcounts, 140k blokes double-tagging 60k hos and the rest watching the previous on instagram. [07:32]
cazalla i don't have egalitarian values so that the minority get the majority of anything does not bother me [07:32]
mircea_popescu cazalla there is something to be said for social cohesion, the problem with it is that it tends to flow towards all-germany / all-russia sort of constructs. [07:33]
mircea_popescu either trench warfare or "great leap forward" sorta crap. [07:33]
mircea_popescu society (as an immanent beast in human affairs) is scared to death of it, these days. i can see why. [07:34]
mircea_popescu i suspect for a while yet the only real social cohesion to be head will be in mmorpg raiding parties. [07:34]

mircea_popescu maybe so [07:39]
cazalla mmorpg raids is an interesting thought.. i wonder what race demos of that is [07:39]
mircea_popescu i personally care a lot more about the fact that there are no movies/bands/anything worth going to see [07:39]
mircea_popescu than the fact that some random immigrant's drooling over random 16yo neighbour. [07:39]
cazalla my problem with immigrants is that i grew up knowing my neighbours, my community, it was homogeneous and everyone knew everyone (also was a small town) [07:40]
mircea_popescu broadway's fucking dead, think about it - it was born out of the need to provide entertainment on the cheap for the hordes of stated insland escapees [07:40]
cazalla in the suburbs just outside the city there is none of that and the idea that you know who lives around you is a foreign idea to everyone i've met down here [07:40]
mircea_popescu and now... what ? da fuck does it do. [07:40]
mircea_popescu cazalla well the idea of community based on geographic proximity / random accident like that is certainly taken a beating on account of the internets. used to be you had a shot at random neighouring cunt just on the grounds of being neighbouring, at some point. [07:42]
mircea_popescu nowadays location's nigh on irrelevant. [07:42]
cazalla yes i remember a trilema article along the lines of this [07:42]
cazalla or maybe it was discussed in logs but made sense in any case [07:42]
mircea_popescu prolly was. [07:42]
cazalla pol also made it clear that prior generations always had one that came after it which was seen as worse than the one before it, at least until now [07:44]
mircea_popescu not true. [07:44]
cazalla it's sorta agreed there that this might be the first generation which is more of a pussy than the last [07:45]
mircea_popescu human civilisation fails periodically. [07:45]
mircea_popescu russia and central europe had a generation of failures that got kicked out in the 90s. [07:45]
mircea_popescu china had a generation of failures that got kicked out in the 30s, that's what the entire revolution was about. china actually has lots of these. [07:45]
mircea_popescu pick a country and i'll tell you at least one example. [07:46]
cazalla i believe you, just sorta reveals the size of the timeline you and i think on [07:46]
mircea_popescu austria had one during friedrich's reign and most of europe had one in the 1790s / 1800s [07:46]
cazalla the world began in 1982, didn't ya know? :P [07:47]
mircea_popescu ah, there is that. [07:47]
mircea_popescu heck, woodstock is exactly this "you suck" moment of the us. much blander than historically the norm. [07:48]
