asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: re: earlier thread, my hypothesis was that mr. nist wanted some dope and literally the only way he could conceive of getting it was to... make it
asciilifeform: wanted in the sense of, to eat, personally
asciilifeform: i have no idea if this makes sense to anyone but me
decimation: it strikes me as more likely that it was some lowbrow schmoe with a gand scheme
asciilifeform: if i needed dope for something, would be just as stuck as if needed plutonium
asciilifeform: it literally does not exist in my universe
decimation: you have the mental capacity & resourcefulness to make some
decimation: not that it would be a terribly wise course
asciilifeform: mr nist-dope exploded even with pro equipment
asciilifeform: a not-uncommon situation in perfectly legit organic chem, incidentally
asciilifeform: just ask uncle al
asciilifeform: (who once lost, iirc, half of his skin)
decimation: my former high school chemistry teacher complained about chemical engineers; they seemed to think nothing of boiling hexane
asciilifeform: how do you intend to remove it from solution without boiling ?
phf: i assumed same thing as asciilifeform, because sop in soviet union. my uncle died like that, botched centrifugation to extract alcohol from whatever was available, at his lab

asciilifeform: (would-be 't3rr0r1st35111!!!')
BingoBoingo: Well Hydrogen peroxide can be stable in some solutions. More organic peroxides... less so
phf: (or, for the curious, expected ethanol, but got methanol)
asciilifeform: ^ traditional 'prohibition' death
asciilifeform: in usa also

assbot: Logged on 24-07-2015 02:24:55; BingoBoingo: cazalla: Yeah. Dude ran to. Exit scam.
mircea_popescu: i recall back when he was promoting it, it having a very distinct bitcoin-insanity vibe to it.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I'll have to dig up what the minecraft casino was called. Forums figured ~150 BTC. Happened if I correctly recall right around TradeFartress deflated
BingoBoingo: BitVegas it was called

assbot: France to reduce reliance on nuclear power - News - NHK WORLD - English ... ( http://bit.ly/1IlLXMd )
asciilifeform: 'They said it would be unrealistic to close more than 20 of 58 reactors now in operation in the next 10 years. The legislation also includes a target of reducing the country's greenhouse gas emissions by 40 percent by 2030, compared to the level in 1990. The new law aims to eventually halve France's energy consumption by 2050 from the 2012 level.'
asciilifeform: ^ entirely realistic. france --> morocco.
asciilifeform: as was the plan.
decimation: wtf why stop using nuke plants
asciilifeform: because what do bedouins need mains current for
decimation: talk about decline
BingoBoingo: lol, small difference between studio apartments with gypsum drywall and mudhuts which happen to have a lot of gypsum in the walls. Just normally the huts are more durable
asciilifeform: 'The senior officers of the GRU have a particular dislike of Western nuclear power stations, which reduce the West's dependence on imported oil (including Soviet oil) and make it stronger and more independent. They are one of spetsnaz's, most important targets.'
decimation: lol turns out they didn't need to blow them up
asciilifeform: 'useful idiots' in europe are the gift that will keep on giving for a century+.
asciilifeform: of course, it was rather like bio warfare, nobody ever found a way to keep them out of ru proper
asciilifeform: wind blew'em back in
decimation: heh yeah it's true
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> wind blew'em back in << Ru shares the problem with US east coast
BingoBoingo: Can't avoid shitting where it eats
decimation: asciilifeform: also the germans did something similar
decimation: after the fukoshima thing showed how the worst-case scenario wasn't particularly dangerous
decimation: of course, it's always 'because reasons' - certainly it's not because in their heart of hearts they wish to destroy themselves
asciilifeform: jp, if you recall, played with 'cancel the nuke plants' until they got tired of breathing diesel smoke and didn't feel like going back to the 17th c. quite yet
BingoBoingo: decimation: I beg to differ https://i.imgur.com/f9Yyww8.jpg
BingoBoingo: Problem is stupid nuclear plants that can't sustain cooling... Like my laptop
decimation: sure they can. designs exist today that would self-quench under any disaster, without power
decimation: fukoshima was a mediocere design in an idiotic location
decimation: and operated by idiots
asciilifeform: designs exist that fit in a cellar ('pellet system')
asciilifeform: could cost what a truck costs
decimation: yeah, free-floating uranium pellets
BingoBoingo: decimation: Yes self quenching and sane designs exist, but BUILT where?
asciilifeform: 'But It Would Be Wrong!' (tm) (r) (uncle al)
decimation: BingoBoingo: of course, nobody builds new designs because reasons
decimation: even though they have turned out to be extremely profitable
BingoBoingo: Calloway County Missouri has comparatively new reactor. Shut down and restarted because stupid all around. Even in middle of nowhere.
decimation: even 40 miles from ascii is a nuke plant that has been relicensed for another 20 years as I recall
BingoBoingo: <decimation> even though they have turned out to be extremely profitable << Fiat arbitrarity prevents this
BingoBoingo: Gotta preserve the existing ones by population centers
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: usg is specifically opposed to inexpensive, simple, reliable fission
asciilifeform: the costly, finicky, occasionally problematic kind - they're fine with
decimation: it's not hard to do the math and realize that a few hundred kg of U is way cheaper to supply in the long run than massive quantities of coal
BingoBoingo: Eventually USG will fall and finally I can ssemble motorcarriage I like
asciilifeform: (can you say 'petrodollar', kidz?)
decimation: the coal lobby hates this idea, for one
decimation: not just oil but also coal
decimation: major political muscle there
asciilifeform: it isn't even about selling coal
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> (can you say 'petrodollar', kidz?) << Shame when everythig is forced to move to corn plastics
decimation: plus, coal plant shits more radiation everywhere in the form of C14
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> it isn't even about selling coal << During my two years at Mizzou they installed a Wood Chip furnace at their power plant.
decimation: asciilifeform: that's the 'bootleggers' to the 'baptists' - the enviro-nuts
asciilifeform: usg doesn't like the idea of plebes with megawatt in their pocket, that's all
decimation: asciilifeform: I was pondering this the other day with the supposed 'tax-free' retirment scheme called Roth
decimation: you can gift your tax free account to your spouse when you die, but if your kids get it they must begin drawing down
asciilifeform: afaik all such chumpatrons are approximately the same
asciilifeform: 'jam tomorrow'
decimation: yes but this particular feature is interesting: why would usg want to ensure that the children fail to gain 'independent wealth'
BingoBoingo completely weaned from butane lighters nao
asciilifeform: because that's for the aristo children
decimation: of course, the answer is the same as your powerplant theory: usg-unapproved power centers must be strangled in the crib
decimation: some pleb saving and endowing a fortune outside of usg's control is unthinkable

decimation: the mind boggles at the various little staffers dreaming of ways to ensure the survival of the present usg regime even long beyond their own retirements
asciilifeform: there is no reason for them to have to think of it. it is baked into the machine
asciilifeform: 'we do x because the 3-ring binder says: do x'
asciilifeform: and it will read 'x', not 'y', because if it were 'y', and 'y' is, e.g., 'disinherit john brennan rothchild' someone might Have Problems
asciilifeform: i.e. Accident4lly!11 nailgun himself to his pillow in bed, while in a single-car crash, of natural causes.
decimation: asciilifeform: the amusing thing is that lord rothchild need not even make his position clear, it's already imagined and taken into account
BingoBoingo: Naptha, fuel of the future
asciilifeform: decimation: naturally. a 'lord' who has to actually dictate every 'x' is no lord, but 'floor boss'
decimation: indeed once he has to show up and explain it the gig is up
asciilifeform: 'the spartan speaks with his' nailgun.

pete_dushenski: the parallel between italy and jamaica struck me this time round.
pete_dushenski: "Italy is well on its way to answering the corollary of the question answered by Jamaica, namely “What would Africa look like if we gave it a whack-load of European infrastructure and walked away ?” and therefore answers the question “What would European infrastructure look like if we gave it a whack-load of Africans and walked away ?“"

But auditors found up to 29 percent of Treasury's devices connected to the intelligence network did not meet federal cybersecurity standards." << i can't imagine these standards include 'avoid winblows'

thestringpuller: lol Missouri
thestringpuller: so much farm land
pete_dushenski: to ontarionians, 'eastern canada' is nubbins`-land
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: Nah, east side of the river this time

thestringpuller: i thought nubbins` lived in trailer park boys land...
thestringpuller: nova scotia?
BingoBoingo: I may be in the minority anywhere else, but... Ant Man better than Avengers 2. Heist Movie with occasional distracting external references.
thestringpuller: ^^^ totally with you on that
thestringpuller: Also lots of references to Hank Pym beating his wife Wasp.
thestringpuller: they bastardized Darren Cross, but his comic story line would have been too dark for kids.
BingoBoingo also thought Edward Norton Hulk, or Fight Club Electric Boogaloo was best Phase 1 Marvel flick
thestringpuller: Better than Eric Bana's Hulk.
pete_dushenski: "Toronto taxi drivers are launching a class-action lawsuit against ride-sharing company Uber Technologies Inc [UBER.UL], seeking more than C$400 million ($307.27 million) in damages and an injunction to stop it operating in the Canadian province of Ontario." << speaking of those enlightened folk in toronto.

assbot: Logged on 24-07-2015 18:15:59; mircea_popescu: that government is so fucking weak, greece is actually a less decrepit state.
nubbins`: aphid milk, nectar of the gods
asciilifeform: usg has a firm grasp on milking the real feed base - the low-six-fig-usd artisan
nubbins`: oh shit it's friday
asciilifeform: not only in the sense of taxation proper, but tacit permission of wage suppression cartels, etc. - the whole ensemble
nubbins`: wage suppression cartels!
asciilifeform: nubbins`: see log
asciilifeform: i'll also add that u.s. states are pretty good at milking the aphids - sales taxes of 5-10%
nubbins`: sales tax here is 13%
nubbins`: 14% Jan 1 2016
asciilifeform: leave no aphid behind!
nubbins`: heh.
nubbins`: used to be 12+7
nubbins`: which worked out, in practice, to ~20%
asciilifeform: how's that work
asciilifeform: national and local ?
nubbins`: 12% provincial tax, 7% federal
nubbins`: now it's a "harmonized"
nubbins`: some provinces have no provincial sales tax
nubbins`: actually, just one, alberta
asciilifeform: at any rate, ~THE~ american tax is: inflation. and it mainly affects folks with respectable, but firmly-fixed incomes
nubbins`: just american? :P
asciilifeform: whose net worth, if they happen to have one with a positive sign bit, consists of an unspent paycheque or three
asciilifeform: in usd.
nubbins`: but that describes almost every pensioner in north america :D
asciilifeform: for non-u.s. folk: the most explosively astonishing phun phakt re: american taxation, is that an extortionate tax (mechanically, lack of 'tax credit', but same thing) is applied to folks who refuse to do the mortgage thing
asciilifeform: (i.e. payments on mortgage are tax-deductible)
nubbins`: all payments or just the interest portion?
asciilifeform: interest, iirc

nubbins`: <+gernika> ah ok - close proximity + wood got it
decimation: plenty of homes are made of wood in close proximity
decimation: there must be another factor
nubbins`: that close proximity? :P
nubbins`: most of the houses are 80-100 years old too
nubbins`: plenty of hidden roofs, double walls, etc
nubbins`: not at all unusual to chop a roof hole in a structure fire and find another completely rotting roof underneath
nubbins`: i had my shingles redone 3 years ago and they found FOUR LAYERS of shingles underneath the top one. The supporting wood was dust
decimation: I donno, seems pretty much like most older city blocks
nubbins`: pulling 2x4s in half with bare hands, etc
nubbins`: generally no firewalls between houses either
nubbins`: not that a firewall would prevent the flames from setting your roof on fire.
decimation: that is probably a big reason I would think
decimation: my understanding is that modern 'multi-family' housing typically includes 'fire clips' that ensure that a particular burning building collapses on itself
decimation: on the theory that it's better for the others
asciilifeform: like the (Official Truth version of) wtc, l0l
nubbins`: here's a government report from 2006
nubbins`: One gentleman from downtown St. John’s wrote to the Consumer Advocate:
nubbins`: “In November 2004 the house insurance dramatically escalated from $552.00 to $1,315.60. The municipal appraisal was constant. The insurance brokers advised me that it was almost impossible to obtain insurance for a downtown, partially attached house. They advised that the new rate was the best they could obtain. I personally telephoned two other insurance companies in St. John’s. In each call I was immediately asked the location of the
nubbins`: residence.
nubbins`: Upon responding I was promptly told that the company would not even entertain my request due to location. I therefore was forced to accept the $763 increase.”
decimation: asciilifeform: I saw the clips with my own eyes, made of shit metal that melts at low temps
decimation: asciilifeform: oh lordy don't tell me you're a 'truther'?
nubbins`: "Another couple from St. John’s advised the Consumer Advocate that, despite numerous attempts, they had not been able to obtain insurance at any cost for the past four and a half years on their attached King’s Bridge Road property."
nubbins`: imagine
nubbins`: not able to purchase fire insurance
nubbins`: at ANY COST
nubbins`: "IBAN confirmed that homeowners in the St. John’s downtown area have experienced difficulty in finding insurance coverage in the past. The reasons for this difficulty are the high concentrations of wood frame structures with varying type of occupancy and differing physical conditions."
nubbins`: translation: too many slums and boarding houses
nubbins`: wow, says here installing a woodstove would double my premium
nubbins`: anyway
nubbins`: i came up here 40 minutes ago to roll a jazz cig
nubbins`: back on track

nubbins`: haha
nubbins`: in 1982 the pope came here and the gov gave everybody $$ to paint their houses
deedbot-: accepted: 1
nubbins`: Shane O’Dea, an expert on architectural heritage and historic preservation, said the idea of fancy window and door trim, and brightly-painted houses was born in 1977. In fact, the idea can be traced to one man, David Webber, the foundation’s executive director. In that year, the foundation took on a demonstration project by painting a sample block in bright colours, from Willicott’s Lane to Victoria Street, on both sides of the street.
nubbins`: ^ before this happened, most houses were painted with leftover marine paint from boats
nubbins`: and the city was drab as fuck
nubbins`: now it's just a thing people do. i have a friend who painted his house neon green

cazalla: our master bedroom is pink (forget the name of the colour) and that is about enough for me heh
nubbins`: sorry, i'm just using pantone numbers
nubbins`: some of them are burned into my brain
cazalla: yellow123 looks a nice yellow
nubbins`: #fdc82f for you hex colour types
nubbins`: yellow 123 is like the blue 072 of yellows.
cazalla: ill write that yellow down for when i paint son's room
cazalla: is that the blue facebook colour?
nubbins`: could be
nubbins`: blue 072 is one of the 14 pantone base colours
nubbins`: with which all others (incl. yellow 123) can be mixed
nubbins`: here's a diagram some may find interesting
nubbins`: the large coloured shape is the colour space of a standard human eye
nubbins`: the area inside the yellow triangle can be reproduced via sRGB (i.e. on your computer screen)
nubbins`: the area inside the pink blob can be reproduced via CMYK (i.e. printed products)
nubbins`: the black dots are the ~1,200 colours in the pantone matching system

asciilifeform: unsurprising
decimation: usually throwaway fiction, never worthwhile technical books
asciilifeform: if someone is dumb enough to buy into such a chumpatron, why bother serving up anything but pablum
decimation: you would think they could at least serve up google's copy of pre-1923 books
asciilifeform: decimation: folks would cotton on to the truth - them being entirely free - pretty quickly
decimation: so the proles could read the victorians lamenting their future dumb asses

cazalla: asciilifeform, seems an obvious prediction in hindsight.. i guess i should step inside the library more often
decimation: cazalla: the problem is that most american libraries have gotten rid of their physical books
decimation: or carry nothing but similiar pablum
cazalla: i called them up regarding the late fees and no, no late fees on an ebook, librarian told me without prompting that they don't support the kindle either
asciilifeform: cazalla: the libraries where i live, still have books
asciilifeform: but the only ones with serious books are at universities
asciilifeform: the municipal libraries are being converted to halls where homeless folks can check email, yes.
cazalla: their ebooks use this software apparently https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OverDrive,_Inc.
assbot: OverDrive, Inc. - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ... ( http://bit.ly/1It8B7p )
cazalla: well, software developed by that company anyway
cazalla: "The company's global network includes more than 27,000 libraries and schools."
asciilifeform: 'In January 2009, OverDrive informed Fictionwise that it would no longer be providing downloads for purchasers of e-books through Fictionwise as of January 31, 2009. No reason was provided to Fictionwise as to why it was being shut down. This prevents previous purchasers from being able to renew their books on new devices. Fictionwise was working to provide replacement ebooks for its customers in alternative, non-DRM-protected
asciilifeform: formats, but did not have the rights to provide all of the books in different formats.'
asciilifeform: it has ~always~ been abundantly obvious what 'content vendors' think of folks dumb enough not to pirate.
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah, either they think they can't 'reach that market' or they are dumber than the average prole
asciilifeform: copyrasts whine about 'if you made movie, you didn't make that movie' but there can be no such thing as too cruel a revenge for 'if you bought a book, you didn't buy that book'
decimation: asciilifeform: actually I find youtube to be an interesting case here
decimation: many otherwise strict copyrasts load up youtube with their warez (where they are easily copied)
decimation: they can't help themselves because 'think of the publicity!'
asciilifeform: they still persist in delusions of 'ownership'
asciilifeform: try displaying the thing outside of turdtube, sans pestilential ads, etc.
decimation: yeah, there's a tacit agreement - you can copy our stuff but only we can sell it
decimation: actually what I find far more offensive than pablum-slinging are the academic publisher fiefs
asciilifeform: these exist at the pleasure of usg.
decimation: sure, but they use their exalted position to keep out those who don't have 'notes from stalin'
asciilifeform: but also because today's academitards are risk-averse sheeple of the worst kind.
asciilifeform: 'can't put paper on www, it isn't prestigious'
decimation: 'need prestige to get sinecure'
asciilifeform: the operative word is 'get'
asciilifeform: get where, from who
asciilifeform: point the finger - there.
decimation: generally the crown, or one of its organs
asciilifeform: crown could, if wished, proclaim tomorrow 'any academic claiming a publication on his cv that is not freely available on www is committing fraud, and liable'
asciilifeform: don't hold your breath for this. but ~could~
decimation: they kinda made a halfass derp in that direction
decimation: but it has enough loopholes to not make a difference
asciilifeform: precisely the kind of faux reform that exists to 'check a box'
asciilifeform: 'see, we tried'
asciilifeform: but it is a mistake to think that elsevier, wiley, et al exist to 'keep research from the plebes.' no one gives half a rat's arse about plebes. they exist as an inevitable fly on the juicy meat of the university
asciilifeform: just like the suppliers of $100 test tubes and $500 table legs
decimation: yeah, the plebes are kept out merely as a side effect of the gorging
decimation: because if the shoe-shine boy could get in on the racket it's already blown its load
asciilifeform: yes, elsevier is in the position to 'you get to pay us $2mil/yr or you don't get to run a university library'
asciilifeform: but it is one of 1,001 such entities
asciilifeform: gigantic bags of money don't come with arms and legs, can't defend selves from rentseekers
decimation: as for 'sheeple' - you of course realize how thin the shadow of an implication of a threat you would need to make for a tenure-hopeful to be thrown into near-suicidal doubt
asciilifeform: ergo when usg throws money to academitards, it really enriches the vultures who feed on the latter
decimation: yeah, like the 'gold rushers' of yore, the folks who got rich were the middlemen
asciilifeform: drink that cup of its-weight-in-gold water.
asciilifeform: delicious.
asciilifeform: and costs just the same across the street, too.
asciilifeform: because - it can.
decimation: yeah, the miners were not known for actually holding gold
asciilifeform: and it is very much not because they did not want to.
asciilifeform: (at times, the 'water sellers' are peculiarly slow to catch up - consider, for instance, that mains current cheap enough to mine btc with at a profit still appears to exist somewhere !)
decimation: asciilifeform: actually I was thinking about how one could buy otherwise useless land in the desert, get usg to subsidize solar, and sell space in a 'miner's datacenter'
asciilifeform: good way to build a free gift of hash for usg
asciilifeform: i'll pass.
decimation: 'you didn't mine that bitcoin'
asciilifeform: and... where did the tx spam go
asciilifeform: i miss it so
decimation: free testing service?
asciilifeform: was very good test for me nodes
decimation: I guess the 'bitcoin core' devs and their patrons are regrouping
