| spyked: | http://trilema.com/forum-logs-for-26-nov-2018#2498412 <-- oops, apologies for the trouble. this makes perfect sense, my initial impression was that trinque was eager to get rid of the rss piece in deedbot, but some sort of transition seems reasonable. | [08:39] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-11-26 16:54 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-26#1874708 << lmao this is a little brusque isn't it. suppose you disable it in this feedbot thing we now see for the first time. let it do pm only, work out a roadmap to switch over with trinque that consists of something else than straight bombardment, and THEN. | [08:39] |
| spyked: | trinque, mircea_popescu: one thing I could do is have it deliver a small number of feeds (e.g. thetarpit, since that's under my control anyway) and have it subscribed to the others whenever you feel like. for now, all delivery to #trilema is disabled (and I'll bring the bot back on mircea_popescu's sign). | [08:44] |
| spyked: | ftr, feedbot also sends republican rss in castle #spyked, for potentially interested testers. | [08:45] |
| trinque: | spyked: point is a simple "hey trinque, lets make the swap at $date, and get the PM subscriptions ported over meanwhile" | [09:38] |
| trinque: | you know, talking to people, not being radio dark for months, that sort of thing. | [09:39] |
| asciilifeform: | in other lulz, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-26#1874898 worx a+++ : prior, there was always 1 or 2 spamola in the mod queue erry day, ~through the broken google liquishit~, whereas nao -- none | [10:05] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-11-26 19:32 asciilifeform: ( replaced the google liquishit with a simple and humane kindergarden arithmetic thing ) | [10:05] |
| deedbot: | http://trinque.org/2018/11/27/cuntoo-bootstrapper/ << trinque - Cuntoo Bootstrapper | [10:21] |
| trinque: | ^ I'll go over this with a caffeinated brain later, but wanted to get the thing into hands immediately. Let me know if you reproduce my genesis.vpatch folks. | [10:21] |
| asciilifeform: | oh hey | [10:22] |
| * asciilifeform | reads.. | [10:22] |
| asciilifeform: | trinque: i'ma test-fire in the next coupla days | [10:24] |
| asciilifeform: | trinque: how come 'two GCC versions to step through before arriving at 4.9.4' ? | [10:25] |
| asciilifeform: | ( i thought plan was to roll in ave1's gcc ? ) | [10:26] |
| trinque: | asciilifeform: we had a thread on the stepping down before, jumping directly to 4.9.4 does not work on musl. not a clue why. | [10:29] |
| asciilifeform: | i dun recall whether anybody's tried building straight with ave1's | [10:29] |
| trinque: | and the plan is indeed to get ave1's in, and I invite him to write the ebuild. the point of what I released is to preserve the found item, can now start changing it | [10:29] |
| asciilifeform: | makes sense | [10:30] |
| asciilifeform: | will also be interesting to see if trb can sit down on trinque's libressl thing, instead of the frozen ancient openssl it currently goes with | [10:30] |
| trinque: | long term the "bootstrap.sh" will be converted to an installer which presumes an existing working cuntoo, and that installer will come as an ebuild vpatch atop genesis | [10:30] |
| trinque: | asciilifeform: right, that's one reason for keeping an ssltron for now | [10:31] |
| asciilifeform: | ( given a musltronic cuntoo, the 'rotor'-descended buildroot process for trb is theoretically redundant ) | [10:31] |
| asciilifeform: | eventual convergence of ye olde 'emerge' and hypothetical 'vmerge', also of interest. | [10:33] |
| trinque: | yep, and ebuild tree and src tree really have no business being separate, aside from preserving the imperial "there is a package repository for all-of-us" | [10:36] |
| phf: | i have a poc, that uses vpy as an alternative to EGIT_REPO_URI. you put all of the vpatches and sigs into /usr/portage/distfiles/vpatches and you have your wot in /etc/wot and you say V_HEAD='foobar' and it attempts to press whatever's in distfiles to the corresponding head, and then use it as a build target. it works, but i'm not sure that's the right direction.. | [10:38] |
| trinque: | phf: sounds awesome, would like to eyeball it | [10:41] |
| trinque: | emerge's last act oughta be its own brain transplant. | [10:41] |
| * trinque | afk for a while | [10:41] |
| phf: | i also have another approach, with V_PATCHES=[('http://.../foo.vpatch', 'http://.../foo.vpatch.first.sig', 'http://.../foo.vpatch.another.sig'),...] where ebuild basically keeps explicit press order, but can also rely on emerge for pulling the files from remote. none of it is particularly satisfying | [10:44] |
| phf: | trinque: i'll pull it out, right after my move. flight's only few days away, and i'm only half way through gutting the apartment. | [10:45] |
| * phf | afk | [10:45] |
| * asciilifeform | gently prods phf , http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-26#1874673 pleez ? | [11:52] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-11-26 02:46 asciilifeform: !Q later tell phf plox to snarf http://www.loper-os.org/?p=2822 into http://btcbase.org/patches?patchset=ffa , ty | [11:52] |
| phf: | asciilifeform: done, can you please check that it's correct, i'm doing it from console only linux and my update function said it picked up a patch, that i thought was already there.. | [11:58] |
| * asciilifeform | looks | [11:59] |
| asciilifeform: | phf: loox correct, to naked eye | [11:59] |
| phf: | kk | [11:59] |
| asciilifeform: | which patch did it say picked up, that was already there ? | [11:59] |
| phf: | borrow expr, ah i see what happened you renamed it to .kv from diana_coman's original | [12:02] |
| asciilifeform: | aha | [12:02] |
| asciilifeform: | phf's mechanism did The Right Thing tho, a++, ty phf | [12:02] |
| asciilifeform: | ( so long as the sigs validate and hashes line up, names are immaterial ) | [12:03] |
| asciilifeform: | meanwhile in heathen lulz: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/5wqxB/?raw=true << rathead, centos , debian, privesc | [12:13] |
| asciilifeform: | phf: imho the correct thing to do, if you have 2 bitwise-identical patches , is to display only 1 ( i'd prefer it be the one using my naming scheme, given as it is my proj, but i also won't cry if it's the other ) -- and the sigs that match it | [12:17] |
| phf: | asciilifeform: i ended up dumping one of them since they are bitwise identical | [12:20] |
| asciilifeform: | ty | [12:20] |
| phf: | i'm not particularly keen on the whole archivist aspect of it, these are curated live artifacts, no need to be too pedantic with them | [12:22] |
| asciilifeform: | ftr asciilifeform is very very fond of phf's http://btcbase.org/patches , refers to it several times just about erry day | [12:22] |
| asciilifeform: | it is unspeakably helpful. | [12:22] |
| phf: | ty | [12:23] |
| phf: | it has a backlog of love also, one thing that i want to wire next is a search for a keyword, gives back a list of patches of a list of files that match. i implemented it already, but haven't wired it in | [12:24] |
| * asciilifeform | intended to release a thing somewhat like it with the orig 2015 vtron, but asciilifeform's wwwtronics was not equal to the task, never made a usable incarnation of item | [12:24] |
| asciilifeform: | i was aiming for a kind of hybrid of jurov's http://btc.yt/lxr/satoshi/source/?v=makefiles and what phf has today | [12:25] |
| asciilifeform: | so i ended up getting hung up on the coad-eating logics | [12:25] |
| phf: | yeah and btcbase is not there yet | [12:26] |
| asciilifeform: | still mighty useful. ( presently i'm continuing with the http://www.loper-os.org/pub/ffa/hypertext/ch13/ffa_calc__adb.htm thing, to fill that niche ) | [12:27] |
| asciilifeform: | gnathtml has some pretty serious missing parts tho, mainly that it is impossible to link to individual lines of proggy unless they contain concordance'd symbols | [12:28] |
| asciilifeform: | it also mysteriously fails to concord the occasional symbol | [12:28] |
| asciilifeform: | ( e.g. in above example -- FFA_FZ_Get_Head is not linkable, and several hrs of dig failed to tell me why ) | [12:29] |
| asciilifeform: | ( it is certainly indexed in the place where it lives -- http://www.loper-os.org/pub/ffa/hypertext/ch13/fz_basic__adb.htm#72_13 -- but for some reason not in ffa_calc__adb... ) | [12:29] |
| asciilifeform: | i presently suspect that this is because gnathtml uses gcc's AST for the input data, rather than the raw proggy text | [12:30] |
| asciilifeform: | and so inlined routines occasionally end up invisible to it | [12:30] |
| asciilifeform: | thing still displays entire coadbase, so i'd still much rather have it, than nuffin at all. but it is frustrating. | [12:31] |
| BingoBoingo: | <asciilifeform> will also be interesting to see if trb can sit down on trinque's libressl thing, instead of the frozen ancient openssl it currently goes with << I run a bitcoind linked against libressl 2.5.5 and so far it hasn't forked | [12:43] |
| * asciilifeform | nearly said ' 'so far hasn't forked' aint exactly a scientific standard ' but we aint got a better | [12:57] |
| asciilifeform: | trinque: now that i think about it -- what was the logic for including the alt-ssl in cuntoo, vs trb's frozen thing ? | [13:01] |
| asciilifeform: | ( i dun have any notion that one is 'better' than the other, in either direction, but imho the matter deserves discussion ) | [13:02] |
| asciilifeform: | for that matter, why does cuntoo need to include own sslism, afaik the only proggy that hard-depends on having one is trb | [13:02] |
| trinque: | libressl is being decrufted by the openbsd folks, result of which is that several pretty nasty bugs in openssl didn't affect libressl since they forked it. I can't vouch for the work, and it's certainly up for debate. | [13:03] |
| phf: | asciilifeform: presumably entire portage tree pulls from https:// unless trinque also hosting a mirror of everything (i haven't looked yet) | [13:04] |
| trinque: | much as the openbsd folks shoot themselves in the foot politically, I don't know that I trust them less than w/e derps contribute to openssl | [13:04] |
| asciilifeform: | if said bugs affect trb logic, than it oughta be in trb asap if they do not, then not clear to me why better | [13:04] |
| asciilifeform: | phf: iirc trinque removed all network-dependency | [13:04] |
| trinque: | correct | [13:04] |
| trinque: | you can build this thing without nic turned on | [13:04] |
| phf: | neat | [13:04] |
| asciilifeform: | a+++ | [13:05] |

| mircea_popescu: | what did they do now ? | [13:05] |
| trinque: | I've been building with unshare -n , uses the linux namespaces thing to detach the process from the network stack (fig leaf yes, but at least was a decent way to test) | [13:05] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: afaik they've done ~nuffin in years, we're discussing an archaeological artifact | [13:05] |
| phf: | trinque: how does that work with genesis, is it some other mechanism than having all the files in /distfiles? (i'm curious, but i don't have time to investigate) | [13:05] |
| mircea_popescu: | was fishing for the "shot in the foot" reference. | [13:06] |
| mircea_popescu: | but yes, done ~nothing for like a decade. still, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-29#1830623 | [13:06] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-06-29 01:57 mircea_popescu: if anyone still cares, freebsd 6.82%, openbsd 93.17% | [13:06] |
| trinque: | mircea_popescu: just their episode with you was all. | [13:06] |
| mircea_popescu: | trinque wasn't that de raadt ? | [13:06] |
| asciilifeform: | near as i can tell, de raadt pupated into his mushroom form ( like rms ) yrs ago | [13:07] |
| asciilifeform: | dun talk, as such, no moar, sits in a flower pot, 'talkers' do the talkin' 'for him' | [13:07] |
| mircea_popescu: | anyway, i suppose this is the issue, i had mental image similar to what asciilifeform discusses, "openbsd the ancient artefact" was discussion more about usg.openbsd replacement in recent years ? | [13:07] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: there's an 'openbsd-branded' item, 'libressl', quite similar to the hairball carried along in trb but weighing slightly less | [13:08] |
| mircea_popescu: | i mean... http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-29#1718269 will work just fine without the current usg muppet. | [13:08] |
| a111: | Logged on 2017-09-29 16:34 mircea_popescu: trinque except you gotta maintain openbsd now. | [13:08] |
| asciilifeform: | it is currently in the beta cuntoo | [13:08] |
| trinque: | mircea_popescu: thought there was some kind of "we don't want your money" instance, but now don't recall details | [13:08] |
| trinque: | the openbsd folks took openssl and forked it, does not need openbsd to build | [13:08] |
| trinque: | it's just a thinned out openssl. | [13:09] |
| trinque: | if we're taking one, I think it's a candidate for taking. | [13:09] |
| asciilifeform: | ( ideally we'd simply keep the logic demanded by trb and burn the rest. but dunno that anyone has the free hands for this presently ) | [13:09] |
| trinque: | correct, that'd be the next step | [13:09] |
| mircea_popescu: | trinque in summary, the thing flew as such : 1. de raadt announced "openbsd dead as going concern without like 20k" 2. nobody cared 3. somebody brought it here 4. i paid his 20k 5. complex face-saving dance of usg commenced, very much blueprint for all later http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-26#1874881 6. i told them exactly how unimpressed i am. which i still am. | [13:10] |

| mircea_popescu: | but it's not exactly clear what relationship there is, between the 2015 died-anyway would-be openbsd continuator, and the 1990s "fuck windows" alf's-apple-notion competitor. | [13:10] |
| phf: | recently carmack donated to openbsd, they made a very big deal out if it being "the first individual silver level donor" | [13:11] |
| mircea_popescu: | phf and i'm entirely unimpressed with carmack, either. | [13:11] |
| asciilifeform: | lol, didn't carmack lose his shirt to patent troll not long ago | [13:11] |
| asciilifeform: | what's he even got remaining to donate. | [13:11] |
| diana_coman: | trinque, that looks great if I understand correctly, the archive there contains the means to a. install cuntoo b. make the genesis of cuntoo/portage that could in principle be used to move an existing gentoo to cuntoo is this correct? | [13:11] |
| phf: | asciilifeform: he "won" the suite, presumably spent fortune on lawyers, but donated immediately after. | [13:12] |
| trinque: | diana_coman: it produces the genesis.vpatch that represents the state of the bootstrapped system. porting an existing gentoo over has additional complications. in theory you could yes, introduce what's in /cuntoo/ to an existing machine, but I think this deserves its own guide. | [13:13] |
| trinque: | if you're feeling adventurous, read the bootstrap scripts and it should indicate what'd need to happen to convert a living system, but I had the thing generate a new bootable blockdev because of these hairy complications | [13:14] |

| diana_coman: | aha (tbh it seemed like that but I was being optimistic for once) so atm I'd need to basically nuke s.mg's test machine to move it on to cuntoo | [13:15] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: maybe in 2015 'walking', today mostly flailing like beheaded chicken | [13:15] |

| trinque: | diana_coman: not necessarily, but I'd want to write you a guide before encouraging you to attempt (or have you write a guide using a machine locally) | [13:15] |
| diana_coman: | the test before the test well, yes, I'll have to | [13:16] |
| trinque: | for now I'd like folks to confirm they get the same genesis.vpatch out the other end | [13:16] |
| mircea_popescu: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-27#1875116 << alright, go ahead. | [13:16] |

| asciilifeform: | diana_coman, trinque : it isn't clear to me that 'move existing gentoo to cuntoo' without reformat of hdd is worth attempting -- non-musltronic dyn-linked sad gentoo bins will all barf once the pertinent libs are removed ( and they dun belong, imho, on a cuntoo box ) | [13:17] |

| asciilifeform: | diana_coman: correct, theoretically may be movable ( tho as i recall, you currently have 1 disk, and if you're planning on filling the other disk holes -- and disks are available -- may as well install clean ) | [13:19] |
| mircea_popescu: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-27#1875131 << reasonable but yeah, plox ave1 write a patch for the damn thing, the dance is vaguely reminiscent of those organically-evolved early clocks. | [13:20] |

| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: i.e. the kind where somebody had to climb into the gears erry 6mo to change the frayed windlass rope ? | [13:20] |
| mircea_popescu: | nah, the kind which were repaired dozens of times over the generations, where "repair" was interpreted to mean "add a mechanism to compensate for perceived errors". | [13:22] |

| asciilifeform: | there's 1 of those in e.g. moscow | [13:22] |

| mircea_popescu: | why import ssl into trb anyway, makes 0 sense. | [13:24] |
| trinque: | this is too much ocenboiling for the first patch, akin to fixing everything wrong with trb in its genesis | [13:24] |

| mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform constant time is a d) in that scheme. though i guess c-d may well package. | [13:27] |
| mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform at this point, it's irrelevant. there's ~10 bucks of kentucky happy meals on the putative "other networks". | [13:28] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: so idea here is 1st to cut the classic tar to 'what used in trb' ? | [13:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | see ? there's immense benefits to "exchange dropped!!!" | [13:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | which classic tar ? | [13:28] |
| asciilifeform: | the one where http://therealbitcoin.org/trb-howto.html : 0x12) Get http://deedbot.org/deed-422651-4.txt : name it 'openssl-1.0.1g.tar.gz.asc' | [13:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | nope. | [13:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | re-write what trb uses. | [13:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | ideally, with as little re-factoring of trb components as possible. | [13:29] |
| asciilifeform: | to be clear, we're talking about the eccolade numerics stack | [13:30] |
| mircea_popescu: | exactly. | [13:30] |

| mircea_popescu: | and yes, ffa majorily useful, and no, not necessarily against writing for it. but there may be a timing issue (trb that takes > minute to check block is useless) | [13:30] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: 'own ecc' naturally gotta be made, q is on what numtron | [13:31] |
| mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform i can't answer that q yet. | [13:31] |
| mircea_popescu: | politically, ffa is fine. practically, it might not work. | [13:31] |
| phf: | asciilifeform: apropos i've attempted two years ago to do a rewrite for my cl-bitcoin, got bogged down in group theory, at this point still trying to power through an "introduction to group theory" text book. | [13:31] |
| mircea_popescu: | phf need i tell you how cool'd it have been had you said this 2016 rather than 2018 ? | [13:32] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: could, for example, use diana_coman's. or a modified permissive ffa. or even the thing that came with gnat. but in any case would be 'sapper errs once' component, gotta be bug-free | [13:32] |
| mircea_popescu: | bug free, fast enough, etc. not like we're pressed by anything here, not like trb ceases to exist while we cut its guts open and so on. | [13:33] |
| asciilifeform: | right | [13:33] |
| phf: | mircea_popescu: i did, i believe the reaction at the time was "let's see what'll come out of it", nothing came out of it though: cl-bitcoin in it's half baked state is using cffi to openssl | [13:33] |

| mircea_popescu: | i suppose the using of the weird directory structure's an eyesore, but whatever, can be fixed later. | [13:44] |

| asciilifeform: | it used to be common | [13:46] |
| phf: | mircea_popescu: my impression is that trinque has some kind of mechanism of inlining source code into cuntoo, so instead of it being a matrioshka doll of nested vpatches, any new vpatch to cuntoo brings in ebuild AND the already unpacked source code. my approach keeps the vpatches separate from cuntoo: you install cuntoo first, then pull vpatches separately. i haven't looked at cuntoo yet, so i'm not sure how he's doing it though | [13:46] |
| * asciilifeform | still has buncha rubbish written for borland tp7 somewhere on tape | [13:46] |

| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: from cursory dig, seems like whole thing took place at a kind of trade school where they taught 'seekoority', i.e. how to install av on winblowz etc | [14:32] |

| mircea_popescu: | danielpbarron i'll confess trying to follow the logic of your articles fails here. do you even want to be in the lordship then ? | [19:25] |
| danielpbarron: | yes | [19:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | but why ? | [19:26] |
| danielpbarron: | bitcoin is still an interest of mine, and i enjoy the position. I'm very much invested in it between maintaining a node and my holdings in Eulora | [19:33] |

| mircea_popescu: | but i mean... it's not "build on biblical principles". nor is it going to be. | [19:33] |

| danielpbarron: | if a requirement of being a lord is that i have to call tmsr the true and only god, then i do not want to be called one | [19:40] |
| mircea_popescu: | i don't even know it's a requirement. for that matter, it's not clear how precisely the republic would even come to notice something as ridiculously trivial as whatever religious belief (unless i suppose you end up doing dumb shit "because of it", but even then, 0 difference between "religion" and "but then i got high" or w/e). | [19:42] |
| mircea_popescu: | i'm rather curious what goes on in your own mind, which is why i said i don't follow the logic. "i wanna be in the lordship though i don't think the republic makes sense". well ?! | [19:42] |
| danielpbarron: | well it doesn't make sense like any government doesn't make sense, but this is the best one I know of | [19:43] |
| mircea_popescu: | so then the contention is essentially that your other religious notions are in the end irrelevant to you ? | [19:43] |
| mircea_popescu: | sorta like "well, i should diet, in principle. meanwhile, this profiterol is the only dessert that doesn't suck, so give me another" ? | [19:44] |
| danielpbarron: | i don't think it is wrong to be involved in this or any other government, in principle | [19:45] |
| * asciilifeform | remembers old su joak. orthodox j00 kid is going to town for 1st time. asks, 'rebbe, there are many temptations in the city, what should i avoid looking at' 'waddayamean' 'well, i heard there are chix' 'what of'em?' 'well, i hear there's them strippers... good jew should not look at strippers?' 'you can look at strippers' 'there are bare cunts! really, good jew can look at cunts?!' 'yes' 'so what ~shouldn't~ a good jew look at | [19:49] |
| mircea_popescu: | danielpbarron you keep bringing it to this "involved". the discussion is not at the level of "being involved", as the lowest possible standard. the discussion is being part of the lordship, as the highest possible standard. | [19:51] |
| mircea_popescu: | let's try different terminology : why would you want to be one of the dozen-or-so "apostles" of this pizzeria owner by the name melchisedec, if you believe the other jesus guy, in the trattoria down the street, is the true pastafarian in town ?! | [19:55] |
| mircea_popescu: | not a matter of "well, when coming from out of town pizzeria is closer, whereas when going out of town trattoria is closer, so whatever, depending on how hungry i am i sit where it happens" | [19:56] |
| danielpbarron: | i don't see the two being exclusive of each other. If you are saying that I don't do enough here, I can't disagree. But the reason for not doing enough isn't that I am morally opposed to it. If i'm to be removeed as lord it should be because I have been too lazy about it not that it was in irreconcilable conflict with my religious beliefs | [20:00] |
| asciilifeform: | danielpbarron: if it aint a mega-seekrit -- what is it that you do with most of yer time ? | [20:01] |
| danielpbarron: | not a whole lot, shamefully | [20:02] |
| asciilifeform: | dare i to ask how that worx ? what is it, ...eat mushroom and watch cartoons on ceiling? | [20:02] |
| asciilifeform: | ...reddit ? | [20:02] |
| danielpbarron: | something like that | [20:03] |
| asciilifeform: | the good news is that it's curable | [20:03] |
| asciilifeform: | ( but gotta want to be cured ) | [20:03] |
| danielpbarron: | i would like to be as productive in my free time as i used to be in my professional life | [20:04] |
| danielpbarron: | i'm not a very good manager of myself | [20:04] |
| mircea_popescu: | how do you even know what "the reason is" ? | [20:05] |
| danielpbarron: | i know what is not the reason, beyond that perhaps i don't know | [20:10] |
| mircea_popescu: | seems to me you've managed to work yourself into a hole. | [20:13] |
| mircea_popescu: | different, i grant, from the usual "find some dependocunt to worship along with her spawn", but rather in coloring than substance. | [20:13] |
| * trinque | wonders where sloth figures into danielpbarron's inner emulated yahweh | [20:20] |
| danielpbarron: | it's bad | [20:20] |
| mircea_popescu: | i'm starting to see a pattern here. "republic is unbiblical but i wanna be in the lordship, sloth is bad but what i do is not much, etc". you know, the principal theory as to ~why~ the catholics go to hell is specifically the trade in "indulgences", which is to say, EXACTLY that procedure ? | [20:22] |
| mircea_popescu: | there can be such a thing as a naive practicing catholic, you know. what one says isn't the be all end all. | [20:22] |
| danielpbarron: | you're right, i need to do what i say | [20:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | or stop saying things that can't be done. either because meaningless, self-contradictory, unimportant, whatever. | [20:30] |
| mircea_popescu: | i never heard before of some guy who CAN live independently, moving to rural shithole to not be bothered, and then having ~same to show for a year of his life as mod6. at least that dood is holding down a job and a coupla kids meanwhile. | [20:31] |
| danielpbarron: | i'm not going to give up hope | [20:31] |
| mircea_popescu: | you do understand the part where most guys in the lordship would very much LIKE to be able to move to fucking stickville and just not have to deal with the whole pile of crap. | [20:31] |
| trinque: | wanton use of the declarative cuts both ways. this internalized "because bible, full stop" can just as easily "because on my ass is what I do, full stop". | [20:32] |
| danielpbarron: | mircea_popescu, yes | [20:32] |
| trinque: | drug users (see: g_l) do this, go around declaring doctrines like lisplinux-chimera god and inventing pegleg rituals of devotion to her | [20:35] |
| mircea_popescu: | quite. | [20:35] |
| asciilifeform: | trinque: lulzily, i recently looked at the https://github.com/gabriel-laddel/masamune thing : lo and behold, 'Latest commit b7332fe on Apr 6, 2017' << prolly d00d is truly dead | [20:40] |
| trinque: | kid was dead when his mother let the state give him amphetamines while his brain was developing. | [20:41] |
| asciilifeform: | trinque: hrm, i thought he took it up as grown man | [20:41] |
| * asciilifeform | not expert on q of typical disease progression in subj | [20:42] |
| mircea_popescu: | they do this "declare the few boys showing signs of not being femtarded sick and then treat them" . | [20:42] |
| * trinque | came up in a generation of kids given amphetamine salts for ^ | [20:42] |
| asciilifeform: | trinque: escaped ? or didja have to 'cold turkey' or wat | [20:43] |
| mircea_popescu: | pretty sure parental connivance was still required. | [20:44] |
| trinque: | dad thought these "doctors" were communist pussies, bless him | [20:44] |
| mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform isn't it the height of cargo cultist idiocy, this "6 character commit ids" thing shithub does. | [20:44] |
| asciilifeform: | 'child shrink' racket created, or so i hear, '9000' exciting new diseases | [20:44] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: they're really e.g. https://github.com/gabriel-laddel/masamune/commit/b7332fe26e69ff4d60f075f3c21179cd1eae8bae , they do the kochtard 'short fp' thing in the ui | [20:45] |
| mircea_popescu: | aha. | [20:45] |
