mircea_popescu: asciilifeform in your dreams, white boy. [00:00]
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes not even that i see nothing here but george costanza's retort to the observation he did no work : "but consider, i am in the smaller office". the chick's not hot, she's average at best. her face's all weird etc. BUT! she makes her own costumes! out of construction paper! [00:01]
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: just the geniuses who accepted payment via natobank [00:02]
mircea_popescu: she's ~the chick that gives sorry excuses of teethy blowjobs and buys you beer [00:02]
asciilifeform: hey it was in völkischer beobachter, must be fact!11111 [00:02]
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: there is still 2 or three years of these wunkderkids for the mpaa to chew through before cockboxmaster or ($seen) Framedragger get their butts off the couch and make a wot-blessed tracker [00:03]
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes as to the other point - fetishism is still unhealthy. samatha fox was, sex toy or no, still samatha fox. and if someone cornered her in a dark alley and stuck it in her, the rape happened to samantha. [00:03]
mircea_popescu: but princess leila ? poor her. [00:03]
ben_vulpes: leila's rape being the ip infringement? [00:04]
mircea_popescu: do you perceive the difference between "im raping you because i think you're fucking hot" and "i'm raping you because i'm fixated on a character i've decided you represent" ? [00:04]
mircea_popescu: pro tip : the former don't usually figure in serial killing files. the latter rarely don't figure in serial killing profiles. [00:05]
ben_vulpes: hm. [00:05]
asciilifeform: does it make substantial difference to the rapee? [00:07]
asciilifeform: this why [00:07]
ben_vulpes: that's kind of where i'm stuck too [00:07]
mircea_popescu: i think so, yes. [00:07]
ben_vulpes: maybe the latter is more likely to actually get knifed at the end? [00:07]
ben_vulpes: by mircea_popescu's claim [00:07]
mircea_popescu: for one thing. but even without that...insanity is never a good thing in the mix. [00:08]
ben_vulpes: yeah but homegirl /just got raped/ [00:08]
mircea_popescu: still not the same. [00:08]
mircea_popescu: i posit a good comparison is "tb patient spit in your mouth. does it make a difference if you have aids ?" [00:08]
ben_vulpes: what same, few girls conniseurs of the act. [00:08]
mircea_popescu: "ewww, spit in mouth" "yes, yes... but..." [00:09]
ben_vulpes: "you got raped. does it make a difference that you were dressed in your leila costume?"? [00:10]
mircea_popescu: take one single point of reference, i think it works pars pro toto : "She says that entrepreneurs need to have a thick skin. “Just don’t care” is her advice. She says you need to just keep going – remember, the internet is a cruel and malicious place for a girl in a bikini top and elf ears." [00:10]
mircea_popescu: the previous set were all about "love and open up to the world and blablabla" [00:10]
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes but she's not merely DRESSED in the costume. [00:11]
ben_vulpes: what praytell is she [00:11]
mircea_popescu: nothing. that's the problem. "but the vast majority who have aligned their psychology with this vector will pursue an impossible fantasy at the expense of their labor and their lives." is the ballas quote. [00:12]
mircea_popescu: there's no difference between girl who's not hot squeaking her way into modelling job because she's willing to make her own costumes, and that misfortunate math assistant professor i mentioned yonder long ago in the logs and alf prolly still remembers. [00:13]
asciilifeform: aaah [00:13]
mircea_popescu: insanity is never a good thing in the mix. [00:13]
asciilifeform: $s she's a furniture [00:14]
a111: 0 results for "she's a furniture", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=she's%20a%20furniture [00:14]
asciilifeform: hm [00:14]
mircea_popescu: what was it, 2014 maybe ? [00:14]

a111: Logged on 2014-07-19 03:15 mircea_popescu: now among this dozen, there was a mentally retarded girl. she wasn't badly touched, maybe 80 or so. definitely enough to take care of herself. definitely not enough for high level math. her parents however were i dun recall what academic country gentry, and so they insisted she go. [00:16]
mircea_popescu: ding. [00:16]
asciilifeform: sooo the contemplated model has 'princess leia' in the role of visual basic? elevating the marginal? [00:18]
asciilifeform: to 'enough to be danger to self and others' [00:18]
asciilifeform: ? [00:19]
mircea_popescu: i wouldn't say elevating. it's an elevator shaft, it ... you know what ? it's mcdevil quickfaust, is what it is. [00:20]
mircea_popescu: allows people to sell their soul, quick and cheap. [00:20]
mircea_popescu: if you're gonna sell it, at least sell it in a ditch, fighting to exterminate the jews or to not exterminate the jews or something. [00:21]
mircea_popescu: ya know ? [00:21]
BingoBoingo: OMG you stole the name I was gonna give woodchipper when I pick one up [00:21]
mircea_popescu: lol! [00:21]
BingoBoingo: Put sign on chipper "Insert Hand for Wish Evaluation" [00:21]
asciilifeform: lel just as mircea_popescu mentioned jooz i happened to be reading bio of streicher. [00:22]
mircea_popescu: lulzy thing with him. "why did they draw a hitler moustache on him ??" "nono, he ~wore~ that. it was a fashion at the time. like bell bottoms." "ooh" [00:22]
ben_vulpes: eeeeeentirely unrelatedly, mircea_popescu is there a way to set post slugs in mp-wp? [00:26]
mircea_popescu: what's a post slug ? [00:27]
ben_vulpes: blog/<slug> [00:27]
ben_vulpes: you know, in case one might want to preserve previous urls [00:27]
mircea_popescu: huh ? [00:27]
ben_vulpes: http://trilema.com/<custom_url> [00:27]
mircea_popescu: look for any time i typoed a title. the old url still works. [00:28]
mircea_popescu: a yes, you can name the url anything you wish, just click on it under the title when editing an article [00:28]
mircea_popescu: there's a Permalink: http://trilema.com/2016/giro-girotondo…bello-il-mondo/ Edit << that button. [00:29]
ben_vulpes: cool permalink shows up in source but not on the page [00:30]
mircea_popescu: uh,/ [00:31]
mircea_popescu: see in settings, permalinks [00:31]
mircea_popescu: custom structure, /%year%/%postname%/ [00:32]
mircea_popescu: then it should do it. [00:32]
ben_vulpes: sweet [00:32]
ben_vulpes: danke [00:32]
ben_vulpes: hm so would it be possible to keep the year/month/ for most post titles but override it on a per-post basis [00:33]
mircea_popescu: likely, but as i've never needed to i don't have it at the ready. [00:33]
ben_vulpes: mk [00:51]
ben_vulpes: so here's a dumblarious notion: move all the old html into the webserver root to preserve links, and then make a dummy post for each page that redirects to the correct flat html file [00:51]
ben_vulpes: part a is trivial, and works, but oh man part b [00:52]
mircea_popescu: eh just put a htaccess rule from old to new name scheme [00:59]
danielpbarron: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-11#1518208 << yes. see : http://trilema.com/2014/consent-is-a-myth-lets-see-how-it-came-to-be/ >> It'd be nice, you know, if one didn't have to go to work encased in ballistic armor, if one didn't have to probe all food items for shit, and if one could rely on the notion that if on the receiving end of a sexual proposition, that proposition stems from something direct rather than from some sort of met [01:01]

asciilifeform: sooo i attempted test of https://protonmail.com/blog/openpgpjs-email-encryption as a suspected http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-04#1514630 , and discovered that it is plain and simple nonsense, won't import public keys at all! uses only pantomime of pgp [10:53]
a111: Logged on 2016-08-04 15:38 asciilifeform: 'though the pgp keys in question do not import into gpg, they can be imported in a couple javascript pgp-trons: https://www.igolder.com/PGP/encryption/ and http://ianpurton.com/online-pgp/ ...' [10:53]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu et al ^ [10:53]
asciilifeform: it ~exports~ user's pubkey, but does not - as far as i can tell - have a knob for ~importing pubkeys~, checking signatures of incoming messages, etc. [10:55]
asciilifeform: 'trade power for the fetish of power' (tm) (r) (tlp). [10:56]
thestringpuller: you really trust ~anything~ written in javascript? [10:56]
asciilifeform: as if browser-based crapola weren't bad enough [10:56]
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: i was testing it as a potential eater of khadeer-style keys. [10:56]
thestringpuller: aha [10:56]
asciilifeform: recall, searching for pgptrons which accept malsigned or otherwise malformed pubkeys. [10:57]
asciilifeform: initially i missed the www-based crapolade entirely, because it simply did not occur to me that any serious number of people were dumb enough to ~use~ such a thing [10:58]
asciilifeform: and that anyone might bother targeting it specifically. [10:58]
thestringpuller: jgarzik was pushing opengpgjs for years [11:01]
thestringpuller: until he made that tweet danielpbarron archived "gpg needs to die cause grandma can't use it" [11:02]
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: do you know of a place where one can conveniently test, without putting in actual work, what pubkeys the thing eats ? [11:02]

thestringpuller: i've never used opengpg.js but most of those things have some kind of "demo" version so you don't have to touch the code yourself without gloves [11:03]

asciilifeform: phf: the ones linked earlier (and now referred to in phuctor faq) do. [11:11]
asciilifeform: lel [11:12]
phf: i don't think it's the same beast as openpgpjs, since the later does seem to support keys [11:14]
asciilifeform: phf: it would appear that openwhateverjs supports all of the basic knobs, but the protonmail idiocy did not bother to expose them [11:15]
phf: cute, protonmail spits "We're hiring! https://protonmail.com/careers" into console [11:16]
asciilifeform: A15E... , CDA4..., << incidentally, venezuela. [11:22]
phf: how do i convert a binary key to its armorerd counterpart, without importing into keyring? [11:28]
asciilifeform: phuctor doesn't shit out 'binary' keys [11:29]
asciilifeform: or is this from some other place [11:29]
asciilifeform: iirc it was something like gpg --enarmor foo.gpg [11:30]
asciilifeform: but if you're using a key exported from phuctor, you never need to do this [11:30]
asciilifeform: (or from sks, or any sane place) [11:30]
phf: phuctor seems to be producing "armored files" of keys, where's openpgpjs expectes it to be in "public key block" format [11:31]

asciilifeform: see, each key is what came out of sks or whoever dumped it in. [11:32]
asciilifeform: in this case, you can replace the header only [11:32]
asciilifeform: and it will work. [11:32]
phf: ah [11:32]
phf: well, i can read the key with proton's opengpg implementation, can't generate one though [11:41]
asciilifeform: read, and encrypt to it ? [11:42]
asciilifeform: and try verify sigs, etc ? [11:42]
trinque: o.O [11:44]
asciilifeform: in other nyooz, apparently the word 'screw' is censored by some idiot forum app, http://www.foundcollection.com/15_7ebad456d0b67430_1.htm [11:50]
asciilifeform: 'It's annoying to deal with because the motor has to be loosened so that the belt can be removed so that one can get to the set ***on the pulley. If you have the same problem be forewarned that there is a small flat on the spindle shaft that the set***should be aligned with.' [11:51]

phf: asciilifeform: i don't actually know about that one :o [20:22]
asciilifeform: nm it was cliki's comedy page. [20:23]
phf: nah, i'm curious about the scheme83 website [20:24]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform good point re the "hack" thing. apparently the reason average cattle doesn't is because ... they CHOOSE not to. not because they cucking fouldn't to save their stinky hides [20:24]
asciilifeform: phf: http://www.loper-os.org/?p=46 and http://www.loper-os.org/?p=55 mostly. [20:24]
mircea_popescu: you know, just like "piracy" [20:24]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: quite like. [20:25]
mircea_popescu: "nobody would give you a fucking invite" "a what ?" [20:25]
phf: those comments [20:25]
asciilifeform: phf: fresh gas mask canister recommended. [20:25]
mircea_popescu: phf the sort of comments he gets on his blog never cease to amaze me. [20:25]
mircea_popescu: possibly what he got picked up as too, "check out this guy, earthworm beset by ants" or somesuch. [20:26]

mircea_popescu: but the page i mean. [20:28]
asciilifeform: yeah he quit payin' for domain. even the link on 'temple' is to archive.org. [20:28]
mircea_popescu: a sentiment i can appreciate. domains, really ? [20:29]

asciilifeform: gossip://6160E1CAC8A3C52966FD76998A736F0E2FB7B452/....... [20:32]
phf: well, with custom hosts you can just type http://phf in your browser. that'll be kind of cool [20:33]
asciilifeform: well yes [20:33]
asciilifeform: (def-me-homies ((6160E1CAC8A3C52966FD76998A736F0E2FB7B452 "mircea") ...... ) [20:34]
phf: :) [20:34]
mircea_popescu: phf i dunno why the fuck i'd type "http". [20:34]
asciilifeform: who the hell does [20:35]
asciilifeform: you type h-TAB or whatever button that is on your martian box. [20:35]
mircea_popescu: one of the most egregious cases of derpy engineering choices. "http://" really bitch, because what, your browser is also going to do what, bitcoin:// ? and then www, because totallies, there's other stuff on the web than web. [20:36]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ftp [20:36]
mircea_popescu: you ftp with your browser ? [20:36]
asciilifeform: yes? [20:36]
mircea_popescu: a) can just http download anyway b) what. [20:36]
mircea_popescu: there is no "ftp". you mean sftp ? [20:36]
asciilifeform: i have own-written widgets that speak ftp over loopback strictly [20:37]
asciilifeform: it is easy protocol to implement, wat. [20:37]
mircea_popescu: i never ftp'd in a browser, nor would i. [20:37]
asciilifeform: granted. [20:37]
mircea_popescu: it has no fucking knobs. one step above pgp'ing in a browser. [20:37]
asciilifeform: granted you can't upload to ftp in browser (that i know of) [20:38]
asciilifeform: but hey, i even got shit here that talks ~tftp~ [20:39]
asciilifeform: (think ftp, but no dirs and no files !) [20:39]
asciilifeform: ...or rather, 1 file. [20:39]
mircea_popescu: so you use browser ftp that can't upload. so then what does it do, this : http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/ilasxve-560x456.png ? [20:41]
mircea_popescu: oh im sorry, fttp://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/ilasxve-560x456.png ? [20:41]
asciilifeform: lel approx. [20:41]
mircea_popescu: genius! [20:41]
asciilifeform: anyway i cannot even remember when i last. [20:41]
mircea_popescu: why not do it right, big-bang://general-physics://your-mother-should-stop-fucking-drunks://http://www.somesite.dork [20:42]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you missed the plug-cable-from-socket-n-to-socket-m-in-plugboard part. [20:43]
mircea_popescu: you know, just in case you want to use the browser in an alternate universe. [20:43]
mircea_popescu: GOOD INGENIEURING! [20:43]
asciilifeform: (incidentally plugboards survived in analogue computers, which were manufactured ALMOST UNTIL '80s because ~actually easier to dataflow program on~) [20:44]
mircea_popescu: it'll be just good and ready to go, just replace big-bang at the outset with whatever other causative event happens in your alt-universe, all good. [20:44]
asciilifeform: big sneeze! [20:44]
trinque: phf │ well, with custom hosts you can just type http://phf in your browser. that'll be kind of cool << ben_vulpes and I were talking about this earlier [20:44]
asciilifeform: (or, i shit thee not, in japanese cosmogony, big spoodge) [20:44]
trinque: actually I think mircea_popescu first mentioned getting a vtronic hosts file going [20:45]
trinque: sounds like a great idea. [20:45]
mircea_popescu: aha. [20:45]
asciilifeform: trinque: not much use imho, a hostfile is the most intensely personal item possible, it is mapping of key fp's to friends' names. [20:45]
mircea_popescu: that doesn't speak to this. [20:46]
asciilifeform: well in the sense that i'm not sure what one wins from vtronic incarnation of it [20:46]
mircea_popescu: you can have a canonical copy unrelatedly to whether you scribble on your copy or not. [20:46]
asciilifeform: you still gotta merge by hand. [20:46]
asciilifeform: well yes, canonical, e.g., mircea_popescu signature, '31.3.3.7 is mircea_popescu's w4r3z box', signed... [20:47]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform put it this way : whether i call her "big tits" or whatever else, she can still be "susan b. anthony" in public. [20:47]
asciilifeform: (istanbul, incidentally, for all i know it IS mircea_popescu's pr0n box...) [20:47]
asciilifeform: right. [20:47]
mircea_popescu: so that's the use. [20:47]
mircea_popescu: $g "because of my father i thought my name is jesus christ" [20:48]
trinque: list of republic sites, while we still use "sites" [20:48]
ben_vulpes: well i was sitting in the sun but i have to drive-by-comment now [20:50]
ben_vulpes: i quite rather would like to take my extant domains donw [20:50]
trinque: and while we still use fleanode [20:50]
ben_vulpes: i have no interest in perpetuating the global hash table as controlled by nato [20:50]
ben_vulpes: this presents the thorny problem of noobs not having the foggiest where ben_vulpes/r/<a_vastly_shorter_id> is actually located on the net [20:52]
ben_vulpes: perhaps just give them an ip addr? [20:52]
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: hosts file can't possibly be more intimate than a gpg keyring [20:52]
trinque: ask some bot maybe [20:52]
mircea_popescu: trinque nothing wrong with having a http bridge. [20:53]
ben_vulpes: later tell gabriel_laddel folx appreciated the lolz [20:53]
gribble: The operation succeeded. [20:53]
mircea_popescu: gopher is accessible over http for chrissakes. [20:53]
ben_vulpes: i would be entirely fine with an ip addr [20:53]
mircea_popescu: this is, incindentally, much better than "cloudflare". [20:53]
mircea_popescu: and amusingly enough, it would be perfectly fine for mpex, or any other "financial" site built correctly. [20:53]
ben_vulpes: but in light of lease-breaking fees and firing of everyone and general existential crises am going to go dip my butt in the river with child and babe. [20:53]
phf: well, if you guys concerned about dns ownership, you should look into ip range allocations sometime [20:55]
mircea_popescu: lol [20:55]
mircea_popescu: phf the idea of course being that eventually this will grow into actual routing, [20:56]
mircea_popescu: and while it would allow tcp/ip, it wouldn't be limited to tcp/ip [20:56]
mircea_popescu: maybe you know how to get my site via drone-usb. [20:56]
mircea_popescu: (drone usb is when a drone flies in between points a and b, and back again, carrying an usb stick it plugs in on arrival) [20:57]
trinque: I'm not opposed to incremental improvements as long as they, y'know, continue. [20:57]
phf: ^ http://pbfcomics.com/archive_b/PBF202-Post_Apocalyptic.jpg [20:57]
mircea_popescu: the great advantage being that the steps of the iteration === research. [20:57]
mircea_popescu: most of the things we've built came out of examining steps and making improvements. [20:58]
mircea_popescu: that started off as weirdisms and ended up as needed standards. [20:58]
mircea_popescu: (dunno who for instance recalls 2012 back when "logging irc" was "a bad idea" by "community agreement". freenode would still hold on to that idiocy hadn't it died meanwhile.) [20:58]
mircea_popescu: and in other "poster child for why polycarbonate rocks", http://67.media.tumblr.com/ec8c88692a7438823e15e4722b21b57d/tumblr_n6sy0mat2r1tt1lr0o1_500.gif [21:01]

mircea_popescu: in other news, making mega-ar post aficionados prepare. [22:38]
phf: it's sort of a universe in itself, i started looking at it again, because i'm doing some graphics work with lisp and needed a good gui toolkit. i'm using CAPI right now, which is proprietary and part of lispworks [22:39]
asciilifeform: when i was on a usg throne and had ~unlimited budget, i ordered ALL of the known commercial lisps (with exception of 'scineer') brought in. [22:40]
asciilifeform: it was interesting, and lispworks was spiffy. [22:40]
phf: sort of tempting to migrate all my lisp work there, because the ide is nice, but of course, proprietary [22:42]
asciilifeform: well you dun need the ide to deploy... [22:42]
mircea_popescu: not to mention its altogether unclear the republic will even enforce fiat-"proprietary" [22:43]
