mircea_popescu | asciilifeform quite lawful. | [01:31] |
mircea_popescu | it prevented the middle east issues for well over 5 centuries. | [01:31] |
mircea_popescu | thus accomplishing more than western europe + north america, by a damned sight. | [01:32] |
asciilifeform | wai wat | [01:32] |
mircea_popescu | yeah. | [01:32] |
mircea_popescu | whenever people like taleb think of peace in their homeland, | [01:32] |
mircea_popescu | they're really thinking of something that was utopia pre and probably post osmanli. | [01:33] |
asciilifeform | aha that | [01:33] |
asciilifeform | forgot, for a min, what the original question was | [01:33] |
asciilifeform | a little mindfuck. | [01:33] |
mircea_popescu | osmanlı | [01:33] |
asciilifeform | (bios diddlers kept the piece in mid. east...) | [01:33] |
mircea_popescu | lol | [01:33] |
asciilifeform | *peace | [01:33] |
mircea_popescu | piece even better | [01:33] |
* | asciilifeform has been at the console for too long, he thought | [01:33] |
* | asciilifeform spend ~2h today haggling with a door-to-door flunkie from his isp, which recently hauled in extra fiber & is trying to upsell folks | [01:34] |
mircea_popescu | so how much did you make haggling ? | [01:35] |
asciilifeform | zip. sc4mz0rz. | [01:36] |
* | undata is in progress haggling a new computer out of lenovo | [01:36] |
asciilifeform | all the 'gr34t n3w d34lzz' were for buyers of tv & phone service. | [01:36] |
mircea_popescu | cazalla you aware that pastie ends in sex ? | [01:36] |
decimation | asciilifeform: verizon 'fios'? | [01:36] |
asciilifeform | decimation: aha. the very same | [01:36] |
undata | asciilifeform: I'd not mind if you hurried up making a computer that works for me :D | [01:36] |
asciilifeform | ubiquitous on u.s. east coast | [01:36] |
decimation | did you ask him who had to pay for the backup UPS | [01:36] |
asciilifeform | which ups | [01:36] |
asciilifeform | there's two, theirs & yours | [01:37] |
cazalla | mircea_popescu, anything that's good, does | [01:37] |
decimation | my understanding is that verzion 'gives' you an ups that you must maintain | [01:37] |
asciilifeform | decimation: the customer-ended one comes with the box | [01:37] |
asciilifeform | aha | [01:37] |
decimation | right, but who replaces the inevitable dead battery? | [01:37] |
asciilifeform | the subscriber | [01:37] |
assbot | [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 57750 @ 0.0004784 = 27.6276 BTC [+] {2} | [01:37] |
decimation | in the past, with copper, this was the phone company's responsibility | [01:37] |
asciilifeform | when i got the building there wasn't even a battery. | [01:37] |
asciilifeform | decimation: aha because there was no battery on subscriber premises in the copper era. unless he owned one. | [01:38] |
decimation | precisely | [01:38] |
asciilifeform | for what it's worth, i have the damned thing plugged into a monster 'liebert' doubleconverter along with the rest of the orchestra. | [01:38] |
mircea_popescu | uh i never had this ? wut are you talking about ?! | [01:38] |
decimation | I've heard that once verzion runs fiber to your premises, they typically take the time to rip out the old copper wire | [01:38] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: large telco where i live. | [01:38] |
mircea_popescu | ok but what battery ? | [01:39] |
decimation | because they don't want to be held to 'common carrier' standards of common access and maintenance | [01:39] |
asciilifeform | decimation: aha. there was a rat's nest of mangled copper when i got to it. | [01:39] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: the particular telco's optical terminal chest comes with a battery. and lusers whine interminably that 'why do i have to replace this battery every year, i w4ntz fr3333 stuff' | [01:39] |
mircea_popescu | cazalla eh, i'd say let the noob be. | [01:39] |

* | sinetek (~quassel@modemcable152.213-56-74.mc.videotron.ca) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [01:40] |
mircea_popescu | it doesn't have to be ON THE EXACT END | [01:40] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: here the pole also has a battery, for the telco routers. but the house optical chest has another. this is actually on account of an ancient law that proclaims that voice telephony must work during mains outages | [01:41] |
mircea_popescu | and it's still illegal to fuck with the copper in yurp. | [01:41] |
decimation | in the past, the copper wires were 'powered' by the telephone company in its central office | [01:41] |
mircea_popescu | uh... voice over fiber ?! | [01:41] |
asciilifeform | aha. for chumps. | [01:41] |
mircea_popescu | lmao ok | [01:41] |
cazalla | mircea_popescu, so i should just be more accepting of this idiocy? http://pastebin.com/iuwXWH1s | [01:41] |
assbot | [01:41] | |
asciilifeform | well, for folks who still want land line | [01:41] |

asciilifeform | once you switch to the opticals here, they - as decimation pointed out in this and the last 3 threads on the subject - tear out your copper. | [01:42] |
mircea_popescu | cazalla i skimmed it. dude's begging you and errything. he's nobody i heard of, prolly some noob. | [01:42] |
mircea_popescu | imo not wrth the bullets. | [01:42] |
cazalla | but he has so many ratings from otc from all his $5 buys! | [01:42] |
decimation | not for any technical reason, but because of the assorted pile of usg policy & requirements that apply to 'common carrier' services like telephone | [01:42] |
mircea_popescu | let ppls live | [01:42] |
cazalla | anyway, he came looking for me, not me him, just as easy to neg rate him and move on with it | [01:43] |
mircea_popescu | decimation imo destroying the copper infrastructure is even dumber than destroying the family infrastructure. | [01:43] |
mircea_popescu | transvestites aren't worth it. | [01:43] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: on account of how it was built, it is tremendously expensive to maintain. | [01:43] |

assbot | Logged on 02-05-2014 21:22:05; asciilifeform: copper is expensive - not merely the metal, but maintenance - keeping water out of the cable ducts, etc. the telcos would hurry to be rid of it even the removal did not speed the arrival of arsenet. | [01:44] |
mircea_popescu | im pretty sure most landline infrastructure in eastern europe has never been maintained in any sense since at least 1985 | [01:44] |
mircea_popescu | think ny waterworks. | [01:45] |
asciilifeform | funnily enough, ny land lines perished in a massive flood a few yrs ago. | [01:46] |
asciilifeform | mostly replaced with monopoly fiber. | [01:46] |

mircea_popescu | asciilifeform iirc it's one of those where existence is mandatory but no-one's responsibility. so... | [01:48] |

asciilifeform | it so happens that in usa, a landline phone is a spam magnet. | [01:50] |
decimation | asciilifeform: there are at least two main reasons for this: 1.) it is illegal to 'telemarket' to mobile phones and 2.) landlines are billed at outrageous rates | [01:50] |
mircea_popescu | "opportunity". anyone here seen les trotillards ? | [01:50] |

mircea_popescu | Adlai no they're supposed to work in tandem., | [02:22] |
Adlai | dunno, i authed with gribble as usual, then messaged assbot !up, and had to auth with him as well | [02:22] |
Adlai | (this is why my joke came three minutes late) | [02:23] |
mircea_popescu | Adlai that's the idea. looky here : gribble/wot was created a few years ago,. when btc was worth nothing and nobody bothered distinguishing between taaki and gavin. | [02:23] |
mircea_popescu | then bitcoin became more valuable than all of san francisco combined | [02:23] |
mircea_popescu | nanotube's idea was to re-create the wot as a p2p thing of sorts, and he's been working at it for a while, but hey. it's hard. | [02:23] |
mircea_popescu | my idea was to simply network a bunch of centralised gribbles. | [02:24] |

pete_dushenski | ha well these neoreactionist kids are pretty darn confused so it'd be a fair reflection of that | [04:51] |
mircea_popescu | wait neoreactionist ? which one is that ? | [04:51] |
pete_dushenski | they're sorta like libertarianists | [04:53] |
pete_dushenski | they don't much care for progressives or equality | [04:53] |
mircea_popescu | anything positive ? | [04:53] |
pete_dushenski | and they dislike democracy and like heirarchy | [04:53] |
mircea_popescu | so like us only different ? | [04:54] |
pete_dushenski | like us with no interest or understanding in the workings of power, economics, or politics | [04:56] |
* | assbot removes voice from MetatronOne | [04:56] |
pete_dushenski | like us but americanly utopian | [04:56] |
pete_dushenski | "neoreaction is a specific discovery of the arrow of time, within the field of political philosophy. It learns, and then teaches, that the way to get out cannot be the way we got in." | [04:56] |

pete_dushenski | ^more tawky, less do-ey | [04:56] |

mircea_popescu | fluffypony there's a lot of challenges to the quaint notions of what the state has the authority to do to be brought through deploying the much more widely avaialble powers of math. situation somewhat similar to, while currently a government may claim for itself the right to legislate as to the albedo of undiscovered stars, once they're discovered that's gone. | [16:00] |
mircea_popescu | sgornick tbh, it's kind of how it goes, that various social media heads put up on whatever social media thing bits and pieces of what they've read in year-old logs here. | [16:01] |
mircea_popescu | danielpbarron occasionally chases it. | [16:01] |
fluffypony | mircea_popescu: that's an entirely separate issue to "I choose to live in your house and abide by your rules...except when it doesn't suit and I can just claim 'art' instead" | [16:01] |
mircea_popescu | fluffypony it is the government that lives in their house, not vice-versa. | [16:02] |

* | asciilifeform doesn't get the whole 'glasshole' meme. carrying a pNohe everywhere, with its two or three cameras pointed every-which-way, is somehow perfectly civilized; but wearing a threadbare camera on your head, not ? | [16:11] |
pete_dushenski | adlai pretty sure there's ways to grab text and submit for bashage ;) | [16:11] |
mircea_popescu | asciilifeform you don't understand how social works work. so : if anyone can get one, it's ok. if it becomes apparent not everyone will have one, it's not. | [16:12] |
Adlai | if it can't be done thru assbot i don't wanna hear about it | [16:12] |
pete_dushenski | asciilifeform one is normalised, one "too obvious" | [16:12] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: that was my impression | [16:12] |
mircea_popescu | it's EXACTLY what it is. | [16:12] |
mircea_popescu | if the fashion looks like it doesn't have the steam, backlash prevails. | [16:12] |
mircea_popescu | otherwise, backlash doesn't. | [16:12] |
pete_dushenski | it's not clear to me why everyone couldn't have a glasshole | [16:13] |
mircea_popescu | which is why the notion that social discussion is argument driven is just so much rubbish. which is why conde nast wants reddit and the new york times moved to publishing pics and tweets. | [16:13] |

pete_dushenski | but the knock-off market, like that for lv purses, should fill that demand | [16:14] |
mircea_popescu | pete_dushenski point is it's not a demand. | [16:14] |
asciilifeform | !s kopin | [16:14] |
assbot | 1 results for 'kopin' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=kopin | [16:14] |
asciilifeform | it's a 'demand' of pretty much one guy, yours truly, who wants to program in bed. | [16:14] |
asciilifeform | hence - no demand. | [16:14] |
pete_dushenski | only because it never seemed "premium" just creepy | [16:14] |
mircea_popescu | consider how it works. take an island of 100 people, of which 5 boys and 6 girls under 30, 10 boys and 11 girls under 40. now, one day the fashion is for girls to wear clothes with a hole over left nipple, so it's always exposed. | [16:15] |
mircea_popescu | 15 boys like this. if 9 girls hate it, it'll become a "civil rights" issue, but happen anyway. | [16:15] |
mircea_popescu | if 3 girls hate it, it'll become a tradition. | [16:15] |
mircea_popescu | had 9 boys hated it, it'd have become a google glass. | [16:15] |
pete_dushenski | so >90% boys like a toy --> fashion! | [16:16] |
mircea_popescu | pretty much. | [16:16] |
mircea_popescu | > 25% or so hate it --> doomed. | [16:16] |
pete_dushenski | 30-90% and who knows | [16:17] |
pete_dushenski | hmm | [16:17] |
mircea_popescu | yea actuall this can be the 30-90% rule. | [16:17] |
pete_dushenski | i can see it | [16:17] |
mircea_popescu | note obviously that all this applies to flat, ie, non hierarchical situations, like what to wear. | [16:17] |

mircea_popescu | that's that, ecology is now a thing. | [16:18] |

pete_dushenski | and voila | [16:19] |
pete_dushenski | bell bottom jeans, on the other hand | [16:19] |
mircea_popescu | which is why teenaged girls with little sex experience but nice tits and barbiedoll face tend to go into "fashion design", whereas fat dudes with an acne problem tend to flock to busienss school. | [16:19] |

pete_dushenski | so fat dudes with acne aren't in to fashions? | [16:20] |
mircea_popescu | too many people dislike them, so they'd never make it. | [16:21] |
pete_dushenski | that's a point | [16:21] |

asciilifeform | 'heads-up' projects onto the glass. snore. | [18:24] |
mircea_popescu | anyway, the difference might simply be explained by price. so, if a car costs 20-30k and a supercar 200 to 300k, whereas a jet fighter 20 to 30 mn, | [18:24] |
mircea_popescu | it stands to reason tech available to one is not available to the other. | [18:24] |
mircea_popescu | because it'd cost more than the fucking car. | [18:24] |

ben_vulpes | getdata is used in response to inv, to retrieve the content of a specific object, and is usually sent after receiving an inv packet, after filtering known elements.

mircea_popescu | something simple like playbot, i want to play chess with peterl. to which it responds "peterl are you playing with mircea_popescu ?" and then it looks for the moves, updates an inner state and keeps spitting out pngs of the board as links. | [22:13] |
PeterL | actually, that sounds like a fun project | [22:13] |
mircea_popescu | same principle with monopoly. | [22:13] |

xanthyos | .0001 per player per entry, and with new players dropping in after the game already started it could have a cumulative prize pool | [22:24] |
