asciilifeform: phun phakt: napoleon was a closeted maths type
mircea_popescu: i occasionally set up boxes myself too.
asciilifeform: even has a theorem of his own name
mircea_popescu: alf has a good point, there IS an appeal to making own car.
mircea_popescu: there's also an appeal to cut one's own neck.
assbot: Napoleon's Theorem -- from Wolfram MathWorld ... ( http://bit.ly/1Vy9mj6 )
trinque: I'm on a crippled device atm, but is capitalism unencumbered by the state not enough of a thing to do?
trinque: it is for me
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform sure. intelligence not impeached. just, there's this entire "genius" myth built around him because it was a particular time in the letters.
asciilifeform: like every other mega-hero
mircea_popescu: trinque as a boy, i was very distraught to find from my mother that if one invents something, he doesn't merely have to say what it should be
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> nah that's jp << Japs introduced to baseball ways to make sure pitchers retire at the age they should just be getting interesting
mircea_popescu: but also, HOW to make it.
asciilifeform: ^ this really got me down, as a boy
asciilifeform: i also remember being told this.
mircea_popescu: i had a brilliant concept for a watch
asciilifeform: sorta assumed that grinder types would make it
mircea_popescu: steve blows stole my idea!
asciilifeform: if you told'em
mircea_popescu: see ? now that's something to envy.
mircea_popescu: this position.
mircea_popescu: fuck revolution, i want a computer that does what i mean.
decimation: ^ computer barbarism?
asciilifeform: revolution is so that you can make this 'computer' from meat.
asciilifeform: screaming, writhing meat.
mircea_popescu: you only think this works because you can't try it.
mircea_popescu: much like the alchemists of yore tricked the kings of yore
asciilifeform admits that can't try
asciilifeform: and yes, alchemists did not have access to fast neutrons
mircea_popescu: i can and have. it works as well as you'd expect, if you thinkj about it.
asciilifeform: may have cooled their enthusiasm, if they had
mircea_popescu: ie : when it works you didn't need it, and when it doesn't it doesn't help you anyway.
trinque: The best method I see is being more or less invisible until such time as one's wealth can be used to undermine the other thing.

mircea_popescu references the "for honor" thread here
trinque: Hi, Satoshi.
BingoBoingo: The part where starting pitcher finishes game by tossing in the bullpen tends to lead to irreparable elbows. US pitchers jsut start getting interesting around 32-26, Japanese pitchers would be candidates for tommy joh 2, 3, or 4 at that age + cartiledge dammage
mircea_popescu: trinque what is this, "i'll date once i'm rich enough for it to work" ?
assbot: Logged on 07-04-2015 00:10:01; mircea_popescu: just like having a car doesn't alow having gasoline. it's true that often people who have cars also independently have gasoline, but the two are fundamentally unrelated, and there is such a thing as the fool's breakdown, ie, car's outta gas on the side of hte road.
asciilifeform: part of the reason for cutting heads is so that no one even begins to idly contemplate the notion that 'you didn't build that'
mircea_popescu: why do you care ?
assbot: Erika Mustermann — Wikipédia ... ( http://bit.ly/1fnwEap )
BingoBoingo: Hardest part of making own car is what to do to cool steam while parked.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: you let it out.
asciilifeform: and get new water from the spout.
mircea_popescu: ahahaha what
asciilifeform: like any decent locomotive in a civilized town.
mircea_popescu: you buildion train orcar lol
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: But then you have to feed fresh water or material gets released
BingoBoingo: From reactor of course
asciilifeform: run sodium cycle.
asciilifeform: to hell with water.
mircea_popescu is looking forward to his friends building own cars, will have inexhaustible supply of french fries thusly.
decimation: no, coal gas
BingoBoingo: Last time I planned car was ignorant of sodium cycling/Thorium reactors
BingoBoingo: Of course reactor goes in rear to allow for lead plate in seat backs
phf: there was a bunch of young pioneers car building clubs when i was growing up. that and model airplanes
decimation: it's my understanding that model airplanes mostly use electric engines now, no nasty 'glow gas'
BingoBoingo also later, in college conteplated building "Lotus 7" but remembered grander ideas. Decided was snooze.
asciilifeform missed all of the good stuff, but had elder brother. and thus from as old as could speak and think, already regarded civilization as a strictly past-tense affair
asciilifeform: decimation: i was quite surprised to learn that at least one of the 'self-beheading incident' model choppers was electric !
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 21900 @ 0.00053006 = 11.6083 BTC [-]
asciilifeform: now ^ ~that~'s progress!
decimation: heh really
asciilifeform: 'here comes a candle to light you to bed, here comes a chopper to chop off your head' (tm) (r) (orwell)
decimation: actually electric would be much better in terms of throttle response
asciilifeform: this is why there was no (afaik) petrol-fueled model 'quadcopter'
phf: decimation: i thought electric stuff is what you get in a prebuilt models, you can still buy a nitro engine
decimation: yeah no electro-mechanical throttle
decimation: phf: sure, folks still use
decimation: to me the serious business is a full four-cycle engine
assbot: The OS-Graupner Wankel engine ... ( http://bit.ly/1fnxpjU )
asciilifeform: actually the real deal might be a locomotive-style drivetrain
asciilifeform: where petrol engine turns dynamo, which powers a mighty multicopter
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> this is why there was no (afaik) petrol-fueled model 'quadcopter' << Thought this was more because making differentials was hard
asciilifeform: you need rapid and extremely replicable control over thrust
asciilifeform: for the self-balancing deal
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah, that's why serious folks use turbines
assbot: MQ-9A Predator B UAV ... ( http://bit.ly/1fnxGDv )
decimation: plus plenty of power for electrics
asciilifeform: phf: how does this machine stay horizontal ?
asciilifeform: ailerons ?
asciilifeform: i mean, yes, it is elementarily possible to turn 1001 propellers from one engine if you wanted to
asciilifeform: but you don't get the gyroscope balancer thing
asciilifeform: where you can kick it and it stays in same place.
phf: asciilifeform: that's what it looks like, re ailerons, the image is from here http://www.gas-copter.com/Description
assbot: Description - Gas Copter ... ( http://bit.ly/1fnxRP2 )
asciilifeform: just pointing out that the appear of the multicopters is precisely that you don't need movable aerodynamic surfaces
asciilifeform: or much aerodynamism at all
asciilifeform: sorta the logical maximum of 'offload complexity to software'
phf: asciilifeform: right, it's a bogus website anyway. i was more curious how differentials look on a quadcopter, and that came up
asciilifeform: pertinently, i went for a walk in nyc on saturday
asciilifeform: in time square, found a ruined toy quadcopter
asciilifeform: worth no more than fiddybux when new
asciilifeform: gave it to a phriend, who will strip away the dirt, it will fly
asciilifeform: because just about all of the complexity is in the computer.
decimation: wow predator weighs 10k pounds
decimation: that's a big aircraft
asciilifeform: empty ?
BingoBoingo: decimation: Predator follows USg school of design which created "Abrams"
asciilifeform: decimation: source for the 10k?
decimation: no full takeoff weight
asciilifeform: i think this is a 4-5x overestimate
decimation: link above ^
decimation: "Another version of the Predator B, with a 20-ft. wing extension, started flying in late 2002. The standard MQ-9, at a takeoff weight of 10,000 lb., can carry 3,000 lb. of payload and 3,000 lb. of fuel."
asciilifeform: saw it in museum, hanging, fuselage was the size of a compact car
decimation: "The version with the wingspan extended to 86 ft., about the same as a 737 airliner, can carry 34 hr. of internal fuel. With two 1,000-lb. drop tanks and 1,000 lb. of weapons it can fly a 42-hr. mission."
asciilifeform: what's that for, nyc to afghan and back ?
decimation: no, so they can orbit about interesting areas for a long time
decimation: I remember watching a tv show about B-2 bomber crews. they showed a 'simulated bombing' of baghdad from nebraska
decimation: crew actually locked themselves in simluator for 40 hours
decimation: not nebraska, whitman afb in missouri

BingoBoingo: <decimation> not nebraska, whitman afb in missouri << Drinking with friend at University of Central Missouri we played a game of guess which middle aged air force folk were B-2 pilots
decimation: sounds like a boring job, honestly
decimation: take off, fly straight for 40 hours
asciilifeform: like commercial flying bus
decimation: yeah except mil bomber probably has fewer ammenities

ben_vulpes: low-efficiency vehicles that burned * and pushed gas through pistons?

mircea_popescu: which is why i suggest contact. it's a truth known since roman antiquity that only truth dispells the fantasms of onanism.
mircea_popescu: which is why they had all the status.
mircea_popescu: statues*

funkenstein_: g'day m'lords
asciilifeform: l0l what early adopter
asciilifeform has ~0 coin
funkenstein_ might need some dispelling os such fantasms
hanbot wonders why asciilifeform takes it for granted that the turned are also honest self-representatives
phf: i thought early adopters went by way of same in other gold rush situations. "bought pizza for half a pound of gold. later bought car for the other half. life's good mang". very few actually financially literate and with enough foresight for it to not be peanuts (i.e. "fortunes" ~~ 100-200k)
asciilifeform: hanbot: i don't. but i notice that the address mircea_popescu gave does not have an 'apartment #' in it; nor is it in east dc
asciilifeform: or even any place close to as cheap as where i live

asciilifeform: but for more 'silk roady' reasons of 'want dope but no dopewot'
mod6: so I had this build that i created on the 13th: 20150713-v0531-patched-glibc-gentoo-statorBuildScript
asciilifeform: (in no case is the dope cost-competitive with the 'street')
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> but for more 'silk roady' reasons of 'want dope but no dopewot' << Sure but usually they evade detection as they don't light the world on fire. What if NIST dope hit a cesium clock? How many leapseconds would follow
asciilifeform: what if whitehouse kitchen greasefire burned clitler's clit ?
asciilifeform: doesn't happen
asciilifeform: plantations, even, had freestanding kitchens. (i was on an old plantation, and saw this alive, preserved, just last night.) for a reason..
funkenstein_: most addicts use croakers afaik
asciilifeform: wtf is a 'croaker'
mod6: and it sync'd against your dulap with -verifyall all the way up to 365454, then wedged for ~36 hours or so. but this evening, restarted it and continued sync'ing just fine.
mod6: sorry for the delay. lol, had to find block number.
funkenstein_: croaker is a "doctor" - gives "prescription"
asciilifeform: where is the doctor that prescribes meth ?
funkenstein_: slang i picked up from reading Burroughs
asciilifeform: in 1936 ?
mod6: currently on block: height=366125
asciilifeform: time machine ?
funkenstein_: amphetamines given to all age groups these days, just say "ADD" and you're in
asciilifeform: funkenstein_: washington pravda is telling us that this incident involved proper meth
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> where is the doctor that prescribes meth ? << Available as Desoxyn at most pharmacies
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: thought it was banned in usa
funkenstein_: i'm not sure what that extra methyl group gets you
asciilifeform: funkenstein_: fat solubility
BingoBoingo: Not at all, merely Schedule II
BingoBoingo: Prescribed mostly for shithead kids
funkenstein_: ah, so BingoBoingo's friends prefer it?
asciilifeform: at any rate, if any idiot could get meth by getting 'diseased', there would be no mega-contraband market
asciilifeform: (where is the underground 'prozac' market ?)
BingoBoingo: funkenstein_: Nah. One of the kinds in my boy scout troop back in the day was on it. I'm guessing the profile for a kid that gets Desoxyn is maybe turning them into a hardcore addict at 13 might get them to focus on something.
BingoBoingo: Anyways levomethamphetamine is available over the counter

trinque: none of the drugs they prescribe are any fun.
trinque: if you're going to go to the trouble of buying illegal drugs, fuck prozac
asciilifeform: well yes
asciilifeform: hence i suspect that BingoBoingo is mistaken re: 'doctor prescribes'
asciilifeform: i once looked up, technically american doctors can (could?) even prescribe cocaine
asciilifeform: do they ?
trinque: they have some not-as-fun variant of that too
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> i once looked up, technically american doctors can (could?) even prescribe cocaine << Usually only prescribed as a local anesthetic
asciilifeform: the strongest, iirc, known.
funkenstein_: benzocaine over the counter
BingoBoingo: Essential for ear, eye, nose, and throat surgeries because vasoconstrictor
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> hence i suspect that BingoBoingo is mistaken re: 'doctor prescribes' << They prefer not to prescribe because of rectal exam they get for having patient on it

trinque: iirc mdma is now being used in some PTSD cases here
cazalla: we never did get the florida style pain clinics here though
trinque: as well it should be
BingoBoingo: Now ketamine is great.
trinque: I don't particularly like being that far from knowing where I left reality
BingoBoingo: Also merely Schedule III
funkenstein_: so many schedules, so little time
BingoBoingo: trinque: Too expensive to go that far. If you want to go that far there's cough syrup
assbot: Sipa what have you done ? ... ( http://bit.ly/1OpbUed )
trinque: heh
trinque: salvia though, enjoyed the shit out of it
trinque: whole thing was utter nonsense, including which way was up
BingoBoingo: I planted a bunch of different plants from the salvia genus in the front yard this year. None are recommended for recreational consumption.
funkenstein_: nice work, how do they grow?
BingoBoingo: Vertically with nice flower spikes
BingoBoingo: Also big leaves.
cazalla: trinque, i'll pass having watched numerous "bad salvia trip" videos on youtube
BingoBoingo: Kept throwing up fresh stalks of flowers all the way from early may when I planted them to a couple weeks ago on the purle ones. White ones less established by still flowering and growing

hanbot: mod6 not yet, still working on the 0.5.3.1-RELEASE, which so far won't build 'cause i haven't sorted the dependencies yet. i'll for sure update here once back at it.
mod6: ok, you're on ubuntu right?
BingoBoingo: To build stator on "Linux Mint" and ubuntu like I had to first hunt down and install the compilers, because why would a *nix need to ship with compilers
mod6: if anyone has built this on v0.5.3.1-RELEASE feel free to pitch in here...
BingoBoingo: Craptop's synced up to block 279xxx on stator
funkenstein_: it built for me on ubuntu with build-essential
mod6: but on debian, which is similar in a way to ubuntu with `apt-get`, you need to first update apt-get (anyone correct me if I'm wrong): `apt-get update` and `apt-get upgrade`
mod6: then this is what we used to get the deps setup on debian 6 -- the package names might be similar on ubuntu:
funkenstein_: yup
hanbot: mod6 yeah, doing this on an old ubuntu laptop.
mod6: oh.
mod6: hmm
hanbot: package names should be the same, yeah. only package i haven't been able to find in .deb form is glibc-static, see http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=23-07-2015#1210151
assbot: Logged on 23-07-2015 01:28:32; hanbot: so .deb package checked against .rpm file list shows libc_stubs.a missing, the other eleven are present. debian says no .deb packages contain this guy. i'm assuming i need it. auto.sh still errorful after grabbing everything else here http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=22-07-2015#1209888 (errorflurry: http://dpaste.com/26ZEG17 ). doesn't look like that missing library has anything to do with it, but prolly

asciilifeform: hey, incitatus is a 'celeron'
asciilifeform: circa 2007ish
BingoBoingo: Or so corenetworks says
asciilifeform: let's put it this way, it is certainly no faster than one.

phf: asciilifeform: fwiw i've not tried pcengines yet, but i might get it for an additional openbsd machine on your recommendation. compared to soekris though a lot of boards that i tried have dodgy reliability. i.e. random crashes. like BingoBoingo said though, this might just be a reputation impression
BingoBoingo: phf: You edit login.conf on openbsd to free up ram, yes?
asciilifeform: phf: i have not personally tried openbsd on them. but note that if you buy the 'apu' model, must also buy the metal tin. there are no screwholes for heat sink. it is pressed on by the board mounting upside-down in its native tin case.
BingoBoingo: Heat has always been the real enemy
asciilifeform: phf: also note that it is 'headless'
asciilifeform: !up sueastside
assbot: Dawn Hightree 13849-030 ... ( http://bit.ly/1IlHCZn )

phf: but i'll read the mans

mats: women's prisons sound like an extra long trip at the country club
cazalla: asciilifeform, you can write with zero intention of sending money, replies usually stop by the 3rd or 4th letter although a few girls wrote me 10 pagers
mats: fucking volleyball
assbot: JL: When Whiggers Attack! ... ( http://bit.ly/1OpjHIZ )
cazalla: i had one inmate write to say the warden or whatever had just informed her her father had died while she was writing the letter (requested money same letter).. so i scan the obits for where she grew up and it was there, but letters stopped after the next letter
BingoBoingo: The Federal prison in Greenville actually closer to me than county's own jail
BingoBoingo: Southern Illinois is truly the Australia of the 21st century

cazalla: BingoBoingo, end the evening with a fireworks display?
BingoBoingo: cazalla: Nope
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i see some changes and i don't want to publicize the wrong package so this will have to wait until chetty shows up. im making it a top priority, should be hours.
BingoBoingo: cazalla: Unless if that is a suggestion, then maybe
cazalla: BingoBoingo, it is how country fair held where i grew up always ended
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Cool, because my entire concern is wrong package. Especially given the current host's reputations
assbot: Google Maps ... ( http://bit.ly/1OpknOn )
BingoBoingo: cazalla: Doesn't end until Sunday. Used to run Sunday to Saturday. Now Runs Tuesday through Sunday.
decimation: BingoBoingo: isn't there a big prison near Terra Haute?
BingoBoingo: decimation: Yeah, that's where the Feds reintroduced the death penalty
mircea_popescu: honestly this entire bs caught me unaware in spite of yeah shoulda known better. somehow assumed wtf, it's foss, will be ok.
mircea_popescu: anyway. will keep mirrors of signed copies.
decimation: Terra Haute is kinda an armpit but Rose Hulman is nice
mircea_popescu: funkenstein_ it only has a little gfx anyway

mircea_popescu: how much travel to courthouses do you think i engage in?
asciilifeform: often for no special reason
asciilifeform: usedtabe called 'bus therapy', i'm told
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> in usa, they often get shipped, bound and gagged, in a bus, across the country << When traveling in search of fiat income I see many.
BingoBoingo: Not long ago on I-64 there was a multi-prison bus accident near Nashville Illinois. Fun reports.
mod6: i think the turdolator ate my email
asciilifeform: iirc, in us - just as in su - it is not permissible to open a prisonwagen outside of the wire. and if it burns in a wreck - tough cookies for the occupants..
decimation: many of these prisons are in rural areas with nothing else going on; most of the guards are multiple generations in the job
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=24-07-2015#1211222 << basically this is the argument against sr economicality all over again then ?
assbot: Logged on 24-07-2015 01:33:14; asciilifeform: (where is the underground 'prozac' market ?)
mod6: ;;later tell jurov can you check the btc-dev list and see if I have an email stuck in there?
gribble: The operation succeeded.

There, halted by a traffic-light, stood the dark-red car belonging to the Moscow correspondent of the Paris newspaper LIBERATION, on his way to a hockey match at the Dynamo Stadium. On the side of the van the correspondent read the words
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Ended up mostly sending prisoners to hospitals in St Louis Missouri and Springfield Illinois. More Urgent cases... Went the extra hundred or so miles to Springfield.

mircea_popescu: you just said bs pills market doesn't exist.
asciilifeform: appears (from my admittedly distant perch) to exist for certain pills and not others ?
asciilifeform: and for the wotless, nothing exists but the embezzled labware (or sr, when there was one)
decimation: not a big street market for warfarin
BingoBoingo: Pills are like unix. Market gets more interesting for less documented and harder to accomplish.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=24-07-2015#1211262 << actually this is a fairly legitimate way to try and hinder btc mempool propagation from the usg side.
