mircea_popescu: "rape" as in... touching ? [00:30]
BingoBoingo: Who even knows anymore. I thought noo rape was refusing to sex a fat chick because that denies zher sexual agency. [00:55]
mircea_popescu: $s nurse [00:56]

mircea_popescu: in other lulz, http://archive.is/R3to0 [03:21]
mircea_popescu: epic example of the whole "oh, etherape you say ? i vaguely recall some things which therefore clearly don't matter and also it proves stupidity pays!" [03:22]
mircea_popescu: tough job, being pinoy. [03:22]
ben_vulpes: utterly fucking hilarious to me that buterin hosed his own thing to fix poorly implemented scripts by others [03:30]
ben_vulpes: but the notion of a "fits in head" ethereum contract boggles the mind, so. [03:31]
mircea_popescu: "his". [03:31]
mircea_popescu: buterin's a "digital newspaper" gofer. [03:31]
ben_vulpes: i know i met the guy one time [03:31]
mircea_popescu: he lacks the capacity of ownership much like goat lacks the capacity to sing. [03:32]
ben_vulpes: yes yes [03:32]
ben_vulpes: "buterin" and "his" are readily stand ins for "lizards" and "theirs" [03:32]
mircea_popescu: he just did what was told. inexplicably things happened. [03:32]
mircea_popescu: yes but the divorce explains the phenomenon. [03:32]
ben_vulpes: pardon? [03:32]
mircea_popescu: lizards imagine themselves better than bitcoin. the tim swanson error. [03:32]
mircea_popescu: gofers just wanna do what told. [03:33]
mircea_popescu: the intermingling of these results in a billion dollars in cash misplaced in middle east and a hundred million misplaced online. [03:33]
ben_vulpes: eh, what "buterin". [03:33]
ben_vulpes: figurehead is stand in. [03:33]
ben_vulpes: someone's getting impaled. [03:33]
ben_vulpes: http://trilema.com/forum-logs-for-31-jul-2016#2138490 << my mircea_partizan simulator worx! [03:34]
a111: Logged on 2016-08-01 00:44 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-01#1511937 << oh, "color revolutions" dun work ? tell you what, we'll steal your country's exports and with the proceeds finance an alt-country we'll pretend is realy your country. ha-ha! [03:34]
mircea_popescu: or if you prefer, take vietnam war, amply studied (in english, i mean) application of the stupidity. grunts that just wanna get out alive and brass that has "political considerations" results in a resounding military defeat. [03:34]
mircea_popescu: take baltimore lulz last year, for something palpably close. same exact mechanism. [03:34]
ben_vulpes: dude the past week has raised my shits given about ethereum from zero to like a half [03:35]
ben_vulpes: usg does cryptocurrency, gets hosed, news at whenever [03:35]
mircea_popescu: well the problem of http://i.imgur.com/xivy4To.png has ~nothing to do with ethereum per se. [03:35]
ben_vulpes: ahaha [03:36]
mircea_popescu: but irl it happens because on that bike, there isn't ONE person riding. there's two : a bodybuilder with no head pedalling and the brainbox+spinal column of a cubical drone with no flesh. [03:36]
mircea_popescu: working together, they manage the spoke-in-wheel trick all the time. [03:37]
ben_vulpes: WELL [03:43]
ben_vulpes: this machine is not log for the living. [03:43]
ben_vulpes: long, even. [03:43]
ben_vulpes: anyways this malaysian thing is hilarious and interesting on several other axes as well: 1) the malaysian government is nowhere mentioned in the pr-wank 2) if one accepts the usg narrative, gs is an obvious stooge of *someone* in the play due to not doing dd adequate to determine that bond monies were going to an organization with inadequate controls to keep the money from draining immediately into the [03:45]
ben_vulpes: pockets of everyone on staff 3) gosh this could be over 2000 words [03:45]
mircea_popescu: on the other hand, the "crypto-contract", fit in head or not, is just an avatar of lazy thinking, much like any amulet. ignorant nonsense and no more. [03:45]
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes qntra piece ? [03:45]
ben_vulpes: i) "sovereign wealth fund" issues bonds since the usg performed some kind of backflip and the phrase meant something other than "giant pile of cash sucked out of the earth" [03:46]
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: there's no piece yet even [03:48]
mircea_popescu: anyway, they prolly bought swag, crack and bitcoin for the whole sum already. as per the ancient "borrow all you can, trade the shiatola for proper currency, disappear." [03:49]
ben_vulpes: but the thought of running the org2blog export process for 120 seconds every time i want to tweak something [03:49]
mircea_popescu: fiat is pretty much a scam token by now anyway. [03:49]
ben_vulpes: kills my will to write [03:49]
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes try mp-wp for srs. [03:49]
ben_vulpes: see: gentoo quest [03:50]
ben_vulpes: all i have in life is my dependency graph [03:50]
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: so does that thing work? [03:50]
mircea_popescu: yes. [03:50]
ben_vulpes: last i recall you said something to shinohai about scripts or documentation? [03:51]
mircea_popescu: it's being rewritten etc, but as it is it does work. [03:51]
ben_vulpes: well not yours, but the thing shared around lo these weeks ago [03:51]
mircea_popescu: that's be mine neh ? [03:51]
mircea_popescu: anyway, phf stood it up in ten minutes, which i'd expect to be typical, with the occasional alfexception. [03:52]
ben_vulpes: choice lulz [03:52]
ben_vulpes: choice choice lulz [03:52]
ben_vulpes: anyways i have several mega housekeeping chores in between here and trying mp-wp for myself. [03:56]
ben_vulpes: (also did anyone notice that the malaysian project is being performed under the civil forfeiture statutes?!) [03:57]
mircea_popescu: not like it's going anywhere. however, the important point is that absence of tools actually limits your life in a very drastic manner. [03:57]
ben_vulpes: and shitty tools moreso! [03:58]
mircea_popescu: yeah. [03:58]
ben_vulpes: dude i'm repouring a foundation over here. [03:58]
mircea_popescu: but the thing is - if you had it, you couild write your piecve, add value to your life.history and therefore future. if you don't have it - you can't. [03:58]
ben_vulpes: what can't, draft is right here on me hdd. [03:58]
mircea_popescu: after 3 years of not having it, what you saved was still the one time cost of having it but what you lost is the incremental cost of all the things you didn't get to have [03:58]
mircea_popescu: in this sense tool investment exposes one to a sort of reverse-interest. [03:59]
mircea_popescu: but as a heuristic, "things which will have to be done anyway are best done right now." [03:59]
ben_vulpes: the prefuckingcise reason i am not making the investment in mp-wp at this moment is because i am paying a debt on the virtualization tool choise. [03:59]
ben_vulpes: choice* [03:59]
mircea_popescu: heh [04:00]
mircea_popescu: funnay how that works [04:00]
mircea_popescu: as you say, choice, choice lulz :D [04:00]
ben_vulpes: the interest doesn't sting quite as badly when you've a plan and wait for the right moment. [04:02]
mircea_popescu: tru [04:02]
ben_vulpes: plan being a kind of principal here. [04:02]
mircea_popescu: cash is safer than plans, though, in that context (which is a very sensible context i might add). [04:02]
ben_vulpes: sure! [04:02]
ben_vulpes: and with an unprovisioned server slowly grinding towards utility i am /already ridiculously safer/ than running virtualized. [04:03]
mircea_popescu: i never quite understood the appeal of "virtualiation". [04:03]
mircea_popescu: very strange to me that the same people who fiercely resist employee not showing up for office hours cheerily embrace ... fucking office furniture not showing up. [04:04]
ben_vulpes: i had no idea what i'd bought at the time. [04:04]
mircea_popescu: what puritan idiocy is this whereby things may be trusted with human attributes because... what, they reliably won't engage in sins of the flesh ? [04:05]
mircea_popescu: "if i let bill work remotely he might who knows, fuck his wife! whereas this amd is safe, it'll just sit there." [04:05]
mircea_popescu: nuts, these people. [04:05]
ben_vulpes: i just gotta piss on every fence in case one of 'ems electrified [04:06]
mircea_popescu: (the interested reader is invited to follow my steps through lowell and teh greater merrimack river valley, to dig through the history of 1800s "industrial" culture, ie, large nunneries filled with girlies presented a whole new sort of religion. [04:06]
mircea_popescu: did you for instance know that they mostly died of tuberculosis, which they mostly acquired through the "kiss of death", which was the procedure whereby they'd load the thread in the machine needle kissing it ? "went faster", not to mention female masochism.) [04:07]
mircea_popescu: sadly at the time i didn't have a blog, nor truth be told any interest in "the world" generally speaking. so the notes will forever sit. [04:08]
mircea_popescu: and in other news : oj simpson may or may not have killed his nonconsensually slutty wife and some schmuck named ronald. that schmuck's family did in fact win a civil award of 33.5 mn. of the sum owed, they collected a few hundred k's, which consist entirely of... the royalties from a ghostwritten book. "if i did it: confessions of the killer". [05:22]
mircea_popescu: put another way : a) the mecca of "topical fiction" bullshit yields less money than it costs to buy a house, don't bother us tort law and practice is the lulz of all time. [05:23]

asciilifeform: yeah, not it. [11:39]
asciilifeform: the 'kiss of death' shuttle is a helpful reminder that socialisms etc do not come from malevolent martians, no. [11:47]
mircea_popescu: they come from women. [11:48]

mircea_popescu: if it's wet, it molds, and that's all there is to it. [11:51]
mircea_popescu: (note that whatever you ask you get no less socialism. if someone asked the gurlz if they wanted the job, they'd have said no, they'd prefer to dick around on smartphones, upvoting each other on social media. net result - still tb.) [11:52]

asciilifeform: but why generate such gnarly modulus. [16:27]
asciilifeform: i suspect that it was, precisely as mircea_popescu describes, low-effort - ~key gen~. which is to say, it was not meant, necessarily, to pop [16:28]
asciilifeform: but was genned scriptologically, and author cut corners, and made q = nextprime(p) [16:29]
asciilifeform: modulus, note, happened 5 times, someone was testing whatever. [16:31]

mircea_popescu: by now most of the cattle has been pushed out of the actual computing market through simple attrition - they cant afford $500 for a computer, nor understand why it'd be useful, and the "smart" p[honme was free with their plan. [17:08]

mircea_popescu: how exactly could irc client without kbd be "almost work" ? [17:10]
asciilifeform: on turdroid this cripplement is absent, but things go in opposite direction, battery is eaten by 1,001 mandatory background crapolade [17:10]
