spyked: !!up spyked_trvl [03:02]
deedbot: spyked_trvl voiced for 30 minutes. [03:02]
spyked: hmmm. odd. it seems spyked_trvl can't up itself, even tho I rated it. trinque, any idea why? [03:03]
spyked: anyways, greetings from the shores of Bega! [03:04]
* spyked still eatin' dem logz [03:04]
spyked: http://trilema.com/forum-logs-for-27-apr-2019#2532147 <-- makes lotsa sense, actually, so I'll leave it until someone for some reason needs to put a trilemabot in their logbot [03:06]
a111: Logged on 2019-04-27 21:10 lobbes: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-04-27#1910057 << while not necessarily mutually exclusive, I understood the two branches as "those who want to import postgres as a dependence (logbot/logbot-command-router) and those who don't (ircbot/trilemabot)". [03:06]
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-04-30#1910275 <-- http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-22#1816494 , http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-22#1837150 (possibly other threads) [03:08]

[03:08]
a111: Logged on 2018-05-22 05:05 mircea_popescu: google translate works exceedingly well on text not worth reading. [03:08]
a111: Logged on 2018-07-22 16:53 mircea_popescu: spykedbot well, the google translate approach is dubious at best, but at least ~it handles all inputs~. this is an important property. [03:08]
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-01#1910378 <-- do you mean the http side of the logotron? I'm quite interested in reading&signing a CL-based httptron, for multiple purposes. is to be one of the high-priority items on my list, unless lobbes wants a stab at it [03:11]
a111: Logged on 2019-05-01 05:46 lobbes: So with the release of the auctionbot vpatch the next item up in my list was the auto-bidding. However, I'm thinking I may bump the "logotron for #pizarro" item up (eventually releasing as a vpatch). Going to take a stab at making it 100% common lisp. [03:11]
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-01#1910403 <-- ftr, /me plans to post the next items on his todo list sometime next week, after a coupla photoposts [03:13]

spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-01#1910420 <-- did I miss mp_en_viaje in timisoara? I'm here until cca saturday, lemme know if you're around :D [03:16]

a111: Logged on 2019-05-01 13:58 diana_coman: does #trilema even have 50 users? lolz [07:04]
mircea_popescu: besides, i don't even believe the comparison's adequate. as experience proves time and again, every single other channel is 100% a by-headcount affair, there's no substance and no quality anywhere else, but strictly a brutish dedication to quantity. [07:04]
mircea_popescu: trilema may exist in any count nothing else may dare pretend to existence short of millions. precisely in the manner a good car may cost whatever it costs but a cheap car'd better be fucking cheap. [07:05]
mircea_popescu: and so it goes -- i spend hours here gladly each day i can barely summon the interest by the quarter hour, sporadically, a time or two ~in all eternity~ for some other joint. the same standards eminently do not apply, can't possibly apply. [07:07]

mircea_popescu: here, have an example, in shape of joke merchant trying to size me up offered : [07:11]
mircea_popescu: putin goes to visit school, kids are invited to ask him a question. [07:11]
mircea_popescu: school administration tells kids they really shouldn't ask any questions that aren't burning and of great interest to them personally. [07:12]
mircea_popescu: the mommentuous occasion occurs, kid raises hand [07:12]
mircea_popescu: "my name's sasha and i want to ask : why did you invade the ukraine ?" [07:12]
mircea_popescu: everyone gasps, "omfg, THIS is what's burning you ?" and then just as putin starts "well...." the bell rings and class is dismissed. [07:13]
mircea_popescu: after break they reconvene. "any kids wanna ask questions ?" [07:13]
mircea_popescu: this obnoxious точило cunt with the requisite humongo glasses, misshapen teeth etc raises her hand [07:14]
mircea_popescu: "i have three questions : why did you invade the ukraine, what happened to my classmate sasha and why did the bell ring halfway through the period" [07:14]
mircea_popescu: the idea being, transparently enough, that in pantsuitist alt-reality "putin [as pantsuit defines the term] can [07:15]
mircea_popescu: never win [as idem]" because "all authority can do is multiply the questions", see, had they not "kidnapped sasha" there'd be fewer "questions to answer" and someone gives a shit etcetera. [07:15]
mircea_popescu: entirely no need of any actual events for globalwarmingourdemocracyblablabla word fountain to sprout strings. [07:16]
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-01#1910484 << the alternative being what, "subway to office to be rich" ? nicole has some stories about how that goes. [07:26]

a111: Logged on 2019-05-01 19:37 diana_coman: myeah I'm not a fan of remote-install anything for that matter but anyway. [07:33]
mircea_popescu: it historically worked -- eg trinque birthed cuntoo etc. [07:33]
mircea_popescu: so... yeah, it's a dubiously disagregate situation currently. [07:33]
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-01#1910550 << having a pile of amds is not the worst fate. http://btcbase.org/log/2019-04-27#1910082 and all that. [07:38]

mircea_popescu: notwithstanding richard stallman's shameful fraudulent claims on the topic. [07:41]
mircea_popescu: that the inane cocksucker does spent as much as one waking hour at any point doing anything besides sucking our collective dick for this is in itself such an immoral affront to any sense and all sensibility as few pantsuits could ever hope to match. [07:42]
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-02#1910580 << prolly time to drop the phraseology and settle for a more adequately modest http://thetarpit.org/posts/y05/082-tmsr-schedule-i.html sorta thing, "this is what i intend to do". doesn't it get akward to "oh, state of bitcoin address, mod6 did this mod6 did that mod6 did the other" ?

[07:52]
mircea_popescu: did you see those irc channels with "games", ie bot spam ? [07:52]
diana_coman: I tried all sorts of channels but it *very quickly* gets so annoying that I can't stand it even just looking at it occasionaly [07:53]
mircea_popescu: myeah [07:53]
diana_coman: re p.bvulpes - we actually don't have any alternative there, do we? [07:53]
mircea_popescu: not really. some vague discussion re implementing an img pastebin i saw somwhere, that meanwhile apparently disappeared. [07:58]
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, do you recall what was the format for exclusion on btcbase search ? [08:01]
diana_coman: hm, no [08:03]
mircea_popescu: well, i can't fucking find it. it was a kinda cool pastebin like thing, had a very retro look, like a qr code or soemsuch [08:04]
mircea_popescu: someone was even going to implement it, which is the last i heard of it. [08:04]
diana_coman: it seems to me that there are sadly quite a few things that end up like that and it's infuriating [08:04]
diana_coman: lost like that, I mean, ugh [08:05]
mircea_popescu: myeah. [08:06]

diana_coman: did anyone try to talk to the guy behind it? [08:16]
diana_coman: oh boy, it's cloudflare, now I get it [08:17]
mircea_popescu: yes, someone tried to talk to the guy behind it -- pretty sure the someone was me pretty sure it went substantially like "techrights" thing recently. [08:17]
mircea_popescu: it's remarkably how exactly the same these go once one's experienced enough to distinguish the irrelevancy they compose their "personality" and "differences" and "speshulness" out of. [08:18]
diana_coman: it's such a well-worn ditch they dug themselves into that there isn't even an alternative failure mode anymore, huh [08:19]
mircea_popescu: perpetually and predictably the exact same "well, so far incan empire's feeding me slop, so ima sit on ass and be skeptical about things". hence all the references to that wunderbar story of prikoke [08:19]
diana_coman: from github for that project it seemed it's a chinese guy too so I'd have hoped perhaps not exactly same,hm. [08:19]

a111: Logged on 2018-12-20 15:51 mircea_popescu: but instead, "совки vs. либерасты" hurr. they reconstructed "the dilemma", truly more meaningful than their lesser brethren's "coke vs pepsi", but to them ~just as meaningless~. the fucking point is that they ~want~ the "superiority" of http://trilema.com/2014/fred-quimby-and-ancient-evils/#footnote_5_53722 [08:21]
diana_coman: I suppose the slop-feeding is in itself test enough - if one actually likes it and doesn't ever see any problem with it then it's precisely fit, what. [08:21]
mircea_popescu: russian, chinese, qatari, in the end there's no such thing as nationality. burta ai, minte ce-ti mai trebuie. [08:21]

asciilifeform: i.e. wine is not directly analogous product, where complex mixture [10:00]
mircea_popescu: im no great expert in the matter, but apparently there is such a thing. [10:01]
asciilifeform: i expect it means 'so little cocaine as to not be worth extracting' then. ( must be similar to the case with the poison frog ? y'know, the little colourful one. they grow a++ in terrarium, but entirely safe to eat ) [10:02]
mircea_popescu: the objection is sound on the face, but nevertheless for some unknown to me reason it seems not to prevail. [10:02]
mircea_popescu: very similar process with opium, as well. burma had cvasi-monopoly in classival world. why ? certainly not because sent agents to kill anyone at unknown distances. [10:02]
mircea_popescu: and even today, the poppy zones are VERY specific. [10:02]
asciilifeform: this entirely troo. in south sovok we had both hemp and poppies growing wild, neither was smoked by ~anyone [10:02]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, that's because not finds ants it needs for poison. if you feed it ants in terrarium, poisonous. [10:02]
asciilifeform: aa [10:03]

mircea_popescu: jsutabout yea [10:04]
diana_coman: asciilifeform: re dulap-tarball, does that mean that it's in fact *that* the gentoo image hanbot was looking for as stepping stone towards cuntoo? i.e. deploy that first and then from there move on to cuntoo? [10:08]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: it's what you have on s.mg primary machine [10:08]
asciilifeform: there is not however a mechanism for 'convert from stone age gentoo to cuntoo w/out nuking disk', afaik . [10:09]
diana_coman: yes but I struggle to understand why was it that hanbot struggled so much with getting a cuntoo first since apparently there is actually this image that is frozen and usable [10:09]
asciilifeform: ( it is in principle possible to make such a thing, but no one afaik has attempted , and i cannot immediately think re how to approach ) [10:10]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: depends what means 'usable' [10:10]
asciilifeform: it's what's on s.mg an' dulap. but defo obsolete, it's a stone age glibc-based gentoo. [10:10]
diana_coman: as far as I understood it, she was simply trying to get some gentoo system installed first i.e. to have A system, not that much to be able to emerge new stuff or whatever [10:10]
asciilifeform: if you want another s.mg-style box, can be baked very quickly. but it does not reduce the amount of sweat needed to install cuntoo at later point. [10:11]
asciilifeform: cuz destructive process. [10:11]
asciilifeform: dulap-gentoo is essentially same item as rk gentoo, and is installed same way. [10:12]
asciilifeform: iirc hanbot was ~not~ working from dulap-gentoo tho, but from an even older bootstick image. [10:13]
asciilifeform: ( dulap-gentoo does not boot from stick, it requires working hdd to install ) [10:14]
asciilifeform: to be maximally pedantic : both 'dulap' and 'rk' gentoo tarballs were created by literally tarring up the contents of two respective boxes where asciilifeform hand-sewed a gentoo based on the classic 2015-era 'kill list' gentoo recipe. [10:16]
asciilifeform: ( on each, 'rebuild world' was executed, bins rebuilt with asciilifeform's flags etc ) [10:17]
asciilifeform: ave1's musltronic gnat does run on each, and so do the musltronic bins it births. however the system utils are still glibcistic. [10:18]
asciilifeform: iirc diana_coman built the cuntoo that runs on the 2nd s.mg box, on this gentoo. [10:21]
asciilifeform: so this is known to work. [10:21]
diana_coman: asciilifeform: that was a proto-cuntoo, essentially not exactly the current cuntoo [10:22]
asciilifeform: rright but i expect the current item will build similarly [10:22]
diana_coman: I suppose I'll just have to carve some time and do it. [10:23]

asciilifeform: 8, 16, 32 propellers, 'raspberry pi', duct tape. [12:05]
asciilifeform: these reliably produce 'papers', the currency of academitardia, so bottomless appetite. [12:06]
asciilifeform: recently usb banned the use of toy choppers in the open street, so they built a thing resembling tennis court. grad students on ladders pry the little broken corpses out of the ceiling net. [12:07]

mircea_popescu: so mentally retarded. [12:12]
mircea_popescu: instead of hanging the abomination, dood constructed elaborate retardarium, where retard's diminutive capacities could be supported and entertained. [12:13]
asciilifeform: oh hey mircea_popescu was this the same fella who later was found dead on street, and the anatomists found no reason why, 'simply tired of living' ? [12:13]
mircea_popescu: "what the fuck is wrong with you ?" "what! when my father had a stroke, patience and working out every day the diminished capacities remaining saw him cured within the year" [12:13]
mircea_popescu: "o yeah ? and how long's this scandalous idiocy ongoing ?" "about four years" "this suggests nothing to you ?" "we're just not fallen on the exact right exercise regimen" [12:14]

mircea_popescu: i somehow doubt it. [12:37]
mircea_popescu: not that i'm even against the effort. if memory serves we ended up with lego out of a very similar preoccupation with turning pig's ears into silk purses. so whatever, i'm sure the ruins of us academia will provide very advanced an' amusing playgrounds for the non-retarded. [12:41]
mircea_popescu: it's still ridiculous. [12:42]
asciilifeform: 'race is not always to the swift, but that's where smart money bets'(tm)(r) [12:42]
mircea_popescu: well, rather, smart money does the quotients. "what's the relation between the quotient of the bets on the swift and the fashgionable respectively, and then on their relative swiftnesses ?" [12:43]
asciilifeform: arthur d. little inc. once sewed silk purse from actual sow's ear. and floated a pb balloon, as advertising stunts, in '20s. but indeed 'remarkable bear, not remarkable dancer' [12:43]
mircea_popescu: hence the earlier comments. "oh but mp, i don't want to procreate just like that... i want a small count of kids from this one specific woman to raise together bla bla bla" is strict nonsense. [12:44]
mircea_popescu: one can want such a thing as wine, or red wine, or bordeaux, or even bordeaux from 1957 [12:44]
asciilifeform: 'but want bordeaux '57 from the teat of my sow!111' [12:45]
mircea_popescu: one can not want such a thing as "red wine in a unicorn shaped glass". that's not properly speaking a want, that's just pretense. dood properly speaking wants to be seen by me (god, whatever, same difference), AS HE SEES HIMSELF. [12:45]
mircea_popescu: that's the whole fucking story there, he's trying to manipulate my divine perception, so he can rest easy. there's no composed wants like that in nature otherwise. [12:46]
asciilifeform: tlp's 'feel like a trader' eh [12:46]
mircea_popescu: right ? so no, dood who "wants to feel like a good person" ends up doing the weirdo monogamous bs etcetera. which is what the original dood did also -- he didn't want the kid, he just wanted for he, himself, to feel like "a good person" [12:47]
mircea_popescu: constructing a circus for his wife's minotaur eminently served that purpose OF HIS. [12:47]
asciilifeform: imho straight cargo cult -- fella thought himself to be a product of similar process, didn't see 'why can't do again' [12:47]
mircea_popescu: otherwise -- if you're poor nobody asked you anything and if you're rich and you want kids, the plough's in your pants and the field's over there, get crackin'. [12:47]

asciilifeform: chukcha incidentally very easily conceptualizes 'maybe the gods dun like me'. typically his problem is re the 'wat do' [12:49]

asciilifeform: i had occasion to set 1 up recently, and it had maybe 400 by nightfall, and whoknows maybe they also 'wait for divine eye to finally recognize' etc. [13:03]
mircea_popescu: you know, that's an interesting application for cheap electronics : include counter. [13:04]
asciilifeform: would be interesting to count the ants ~leaving~ ( the better traps, are mixed in such a way that some small % can get loose, and bring back friends ) [13:04]
asciilifeform: the 'linux'-flavoured derp traps do seem to have common thread where 'maybe divine eye finally opens' re irons. 'maybe this year china gives us on what to run' etc [13:08]
asciilifeform: somehow the point is lost on'em, that if for erry 1 $ they spent on 'raspberry' they kept a dime, they could buy half of tmsc co [13:09]
mircea_popescu: "but what is the point of a national literature ?! for one thing, then you have to read it!" [13:09]
asciilifeform: i suppose this is unsurprising, the ants also do not , luckily for asciilifeform , know that they collectively exceed him in mass, and could eat him if could all agree [13:10]
mircea_popescu: it's altogether dubious, this eating business. [13:12]
mircea_popescu: maybe up to 1800 or so. [13:12]
asciilifeform: on reflection, there aint much that is mysterious re the opentards' collective failure to bake irons. ( irons require some sorta head, and cannot be baked via 'million fly eyes' process ) [13:12]
mircea_popescu: it is roughly speaking impossible for things to be done by people who don't particularly want to do anything. [13:15]
mircea_popescu: there's also not that many pregnancies occuring on deserted islands. similar reasons. [13:15]

mircea_popescu: with this style of open book examination, obama even passed for legal mind. [13:17]
* asciilifeform began to see mircea_popescu's point re 'linus set back field by two decades' . the finn's gift to the 'self-published chats' fly eyes folx is moar or less errything they have to work with in re convincing selves that 'yes we do things' [13:17]

asciilifeform: it's rather like if some scrap dealer took pity on the cargo island folx and gave'em an old boeing carcass. [13:19]

asciilifeform: i cannot resist to ask, whaack what means 'gringo friendly atmosphere' ? [14:12]
mircea_popescu: well, if he doesnt speak spanish, he's conceivably dependent on english-language literature, which is very derpy and tends to present "dangers" and other be carefuls. [14:13]

mircea_popescu: he went to tamarindo, picked up a buncha german gals for 18 months, inexplicably his spanish has not improved !!! [14:29]
mircea_popescu: unglaublich! [14:31]
whaack: ^ exactly. There were a few brief stints with SSL girls, but nothing that stuck [14:31]
* BingoBoingo has seens some gringos here fall into similar traps passing through, but not many other year+ gingos in the city. [14:32]
BingoBoingo: How do the local girls in Costa Rica cook? Maybe that's the problem? [14:32]
mircea_popescu: well... casado. [14:32]
BingoBoingo: Is that like some sorta cunt shaped parrilla? [14:33]
mircea_popescu: nah, bacon, eggs, beans, avocado gallo pinto etc [14:33]
whaack: yup, all casados. but i can't say that that was a problem as i do like casados. it was just an added effort to be with ticas over the germans that i did not make, and my Spanish paid for it [14:34]
mircea_popescu: well so anyway, you had fun, good for you. [14:35]
BingoBoingo: Surely there must have been some Venezolanas. Their food is pretty good. [14:35]
BingoBoingo: But, lessons learned for next time. [14:36]
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo, fwis, vz emmigration mostly the same young and distrophic male the arabs export also. [14:36]
whaack: I was with a Venezuelan for a while, but she spoke English perfectly [14:36]
BingoBoingo: They tend to do that. [14:36]
mircea_popescu: whaack, you know, for the record, "here's this vz chick i picked up" does not count as noise on this channel. [14:36]
BingoBoingo: !!up lobbes_field [14:37]
deedbot: lobbes_field voiced for 30 minutes. [14:37]
lobbes_field: ty BingoBoingo [14:37]
lobbes_field: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-02#1910762 << verily, it is much needed at this point for various applications. Seems like there are several in L1 who probably are much closer to genesis-ing such a kit (phf, ben_vulpes, spyked, prolly a few others), though as it stands now there are still no vpatches. I figure I'll get the ball rolling and if any of the mentioned to 'beat-me-to-the-punch' here (and I welcome this) the worst outc [14:37]
a111: Logged on 2019-05-02 15:23 asciilifeform: none of these currently on front burner, but will be 9000x easier to revive if meanwhile lobbes et al produce an edible cl 'wwwism kit' [14:37]
mircea_popescu: heck, most things that consist of someone doing something don't. it's like old style dad wallet pics of the kid : "here's my kid doing this, here's my kid doign that..." [14:37]
mircea_popescu: lobbes_field, what's the idea here anyway, like a sort of "script html in cl" ? [14:38]
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Is suspect the number of Venezolanas vs venezolanos I've met here may be a function of distance. The ones here got out on their own or got out with family money. [14:38]
mircea_popescu: possibru. [14:38]
mircea_popescu: lobbes_field, also your lengthy line got cut. [14:39]
lobbes_field: mircea_popescu pretty much, would need something that can take loglines from the logbot's log table and produce html [14:39]
lobbes_field: Ah whoops [14:39]
mircea_popescu: hm. [14:39]
asciilifeform: lobbes_field: i've previously used 'cl-who', but it needs to get eaten/genesised/frozen [14:39]
mircea_popescu: oh, this is only specced as "in lisp" because the rest of the bot is in cl. [14:39]
lobbes_field: On dumbphone atm, heres rest of line "the worst outcome for me personally would be I learn more cl (i.e. not a bad thing at all). And we get some republican items made in either case." [14:41]
lobbes_field: asciilifeform I did see that in my research. Glad to know you've used in the past with satisfactory results [14:41]
lobbes_field: To continue my earlier cut-line: I think in the past I've been too sensitive regarding avoidance of 'duplicitive efforts', but the mircea_popescu quote of "all time is burned time" has been burning in my head. [14:43]
lobbes_field: I.e. If, say, spyked writes a better cl-www-tron I'd still want to be able to fit the thing in my head. So any work I do toward 'building my own' will only aid me in that task (hence relatedly, I suppose, why 'build yer own v-tron' is a commonly recommended exercise). [14:43]
lobbes_field: Bit as a practical start, I may just sit down and read some of the existing items out there (cl-who) and then eventually freeze/gebesis [14:45]
lobbes_field: mircea_popescu: re: specced in lisp, indeed, with the exception of my python command router / auctionbot, the rest of the ircbot/logbot v-tree is lisp. I know python ain't long for the world so I figure it is time I lose those training wheels [14:48]
mircea_popescu: aite. [14:50]
lobbes_field: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-02#1910897 << auctionbot 3.0! [14:51]

mircea_popescu: lol [14:51]
lobbes_field: Anyways, back to mines for me, but I'ma keep noodling on logotronics. bbl [14:53]
* asciilifeform observes that 'bot that knows when it has lost contact' is still open , afaik, problem [14:54]
asciilifeform: 1 possible pill is to run'em in pairs, and both reset if dun see pm from the other within x min ( iirc mircea_popescu suggested this some yrs ago ) [14:55]
whaack: whaack, you know, for the record, "here's this vz chick i picked up" does not count as noise on this channel. << noted! [14:55]

asciilifeform: lol, this is, wat, 4th ? [16:19]
asciilifeform: 5th? [16:19]
BingoBoingo: Manyth [16:20]
BingoBoingo: But... they just won't yield [16:39]
asciilifeform: lol, wai would they 'yield'. usg prints moola by the gigatonne, gives'em just like gives to microshit. a++ 'biznismodel'. aand nao finally banned competing chinese router ( which, lulzily, is mostly indistinguishable from cisco in any way that matters ) [16:54]
asciilifeform: soon enuff i expect cisco will be Officially mandatory in all reich telecom , like at&t gear once was pre-divestiture [16:54]

Mocky: eating log still [17:27]
mod6: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-02#1910644 << Aha, yes it does. Thanks for the example link to get me thinking. Will switch it up on the next one. [20:05]
a111: Logged on 2019-05-02 11:49 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-02#1910580 << prolly time to drop the phraseology and settle for a more adequately modest http://thetarpit.org/posts/y05/082-tmsr-schedule-i.html sorta thing, "this is what i intend to do". doesn't it get akward to "oh, state of bitcoin address, mod6 did this mod6 did that mod6 did the other" ? [20:05]
Mocky: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-24#1874402 << this suggests that each key holder can only host $key/gns at one ip address. And what about vpatch ordering and the v manifest file? If i have an entry for archive.is and want to change that entry, I can't just make and sign a patch of my own, i have to patch on top of the 'consensus' press, otherwise manifest won't match and can't press multiple heads. Am I wrong about how that works? [23:18]
a111: Logged on 2018-11-24 19:51 mircea_popescu: i ~suppose~ one manner of handling this is the followingf convention : patches to be acquired from $key/gns/ dir, for all keys in the seals ring. so it'd look for "6160E1CAC8A3C52966FD76998A736F0E2FB7B452/gns" which is not a "valid" domain per usg.verisign "rules" however it DOES resolve in our own system. because we can put ips on anything we want.
