mircea_popescu: and tha tschmuck, what's his name. the fat kid, "son of boss" whatever. he's a terrible actor and drags the whole thing down.
mod6: oh Chris.. something or other
mircea_popescu: chris penn ya
mod6: ya
mod6: thats it
mircea_popescu: he's for rom coms and "true to life" films about hackers / stock exchange brokers / etc plox.
mircea_popescu: but, yes, not terrible. you wanna see terrible, watch poolhall junkies.
mircea_popescu: got chazz palminteri AND christopher walken, and plays like the 3rd placed highschool media lab production for 1986.

mod6: i'll have to checkout poolhall junkies
phf: i think i watched it on trilema review, ended up skipping through mostly
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> is that where they get the slightly aged strippers and do a sort of ... light daytime drama + staged "fights" ? << Yeah, then smackdown's the one they painted blue
mircea_popescu: oh i wrote it ?
mircea_popescu: ah yes, because of the whole stakhanovism bs
BingoBoingo: <mod6> but again, i never get to use it. << Get a lumber yard gig
mircea_popescu: i expect nothing but spanish spoken huh
mod6: yeah, i've got some friends who learned/speak spanish now because of their co-workers.
mod6: but it's generally a weird spanglish mix
BingoBoingo: Nah, lots of English spoken by hobbyists who "just want to" and maintenance folk.
mod6: ah
BingoBoingo: Good builders speak spanish
BingoBoingo: Most spanish speakers will speak a weird spanglish to Gringos, until you make them stop and speak spanish
BingoBoingo: You pick up a lot of vocabulary with "Como se dice"
BingoBoingo: And pointing
mircea_popescu: "como se dice follar ?" "no se dice. se hace."
BingoBoingo: <mod6> oh Chris.. something or other << Chris Farley
mod6: na, Chris Penn, MP has it.
mod6: I just couldn't remember
mircea_popescu: his brother was pretty hot in that newman way, cca 1980.
BingoBoingo: Now Sean Penn is mega roided up
mod6: he was married to Madonna for a while 'eh?
mod6: shit, 30+ years ago iirc
BingoBoingo: In his current straight to netflix gig's he's been Stalone in the 1970's and Arnold in the early 80's type 8-4% bodyfat sorta cut, but that mass dun impress on screen no more
mircea_popescu: was he ?
BingoBoingo: Now was, is now.
mircea_popescu: honestly i thought madonna was married to a horse.
mircea_popescu: a female horse.
BingoBoingo: Before was a sorta paul newman/tom cruise but with horse face
BingoBoingo: Now Sean Penn is low rent action figure with OLD sarah jessica parker horse face
phf: i sort of assumed that chris penn and jonah hill is the same person. there was probably one in the 60-70s also
mircea_popescu: o yeah, what ever became of that "talented" shithead ?
BingoBoingo: !!up fromdeedbot
deedbot: fromdeedbot voiced for 30 minutes.
mircea_popescu: somehow these people don't seem to observe the contradiction between "talented" and "15 minutes of fauxfame"
BingoBoingo: fromdeedbot: WHo is your daddy, and what does he do?
fromdeedbot: It's not a tumor!
BingoBoingo: It is a tumor
mircea_popescu: wait, wut ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Age testing the n00bs
mircea_popescu: phf i had to google this hill dood, and i still don't know who he is.
mod6: he was in a movie 'superbad', among some others.
mircea_popescu: uncredited in walk hard. mmkay ?
mod6: Emma Stone was the main attraction in Superbad.
mircea_popescu: imdb lists 60 credits and he's not been in anything. da fuck.
mircea_popescu: mod6 is emma stone the pubescent chick from that franchise with the schoolhouse "wizards" and whatnot ?
mod6: dunno /me looks
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Hill's in pantsuit propaganda flicks, aka post humor stoner comedies
mircea_popescu: "post humour" ie cancerous faggotry ? mmmmmkay.
mod6: mircea_popescu: maybe you're thinking of "Jennifer Stone" ?
mod6: Wizards of Waverly Place or some shit
BingoBoingo: The fanfic thing, it's an emma
mod6: ah, hmm. dunno.
mod6: Anyway /me likes redheads :]
mircea_popescu: whisper in my ear clarifies i was thinking of one emma watson.
phf: i saw him in the horrible wolf of wall street and then later in war dogs. both are millennial updates of greater movies, later one being a take on "lord of war". he basically plays the same character, young annoying and smug jew who gets what he wants on chutzpah, until he doesn't.
mod6: ahh, emma watson ya. from the wizard thing, gotcha.
mod6: phf: lol
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, the libertards are exactly so described. they dare do the whole trilema rewrite thing, except their results aren't "the original improved, because closer to mp". their results are "the original, destroyed".
mircea_popescu: chutzpah is not for schmucks!
phf: there's nothing good about any of this. i thought scorsese would know better, but there's no defense against old age
mircea_popescu: phf and fucking anthony hopkins! wasting his time with the inane netflix crap! and ...
mircea_popescu: well hgonestly, all of them. pacino doing bullshit incomprehensible, they all drank dumbweed.
BingoBoingo: *smoked dumbweed
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo wait, was that nigger in the trilema sense ?!
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Everyone in that story, yes
BingoBoingo: And the visual spectrum sense too
mircea_popescu goes back to bergman.

a111: Logged on 2017-08-01 03:41 mircea_popescu: only works after the 12th.
asciilifeform: you can do hungarian or something else 'martian' that would never otherwise get to.
mircea_popescu: what's a toypad ?
asciilifeform: crapple etc
mircea_popescu: i never saw that to usefully work.
asciilifeform: depends on what is usefully
mircea_popescu: yes, it does.
asciilifeform: they used to have these for msdos too
asciilifeform: (language gamez)
asciilifeform: pretty low tech
mircea_popescu: meanwhile, finding a native hungarian speaker is generally as easy as visiting the closest bordello.
asciilifeform: rly? in cr?
mircea_popescu: in a civilised country!
mircea_popescu: imo fine criterion for "am i living in civilised country".
asciilifeform: anyway 'translate this' gamez don't beat harem method, noshit.jpg. but they beat learning by reading spam, which is how i did, e.g., ro
mircea_popescu: "usefully" above meant "acquiring a capacity of expression not heretofore had".
asciilifeform: expression not so much. readonly is attainable.
mircea_popescu: ie, it's not "when i can sort-of mangle my english statements of my thoughts into pashtun", but when "i came up with this perfectly pashtun form of what i was thinking i have nfi how to put in english".
asciilifeform: well yes
asciilifeform: that'd be 'fluency'
mircea_popescu: fluency is when one can interact with native speaker for some definite, common task without having to ask for breaks.
mircea_popescu: the equivalent of "no need for flow control" in tcp/ip say
mircea_popescu: much lower bar.
asciilifeform: i think of 'fluency' as when i can translate poem
mircea_popescu: that is poemy not fluency.
mircea_popescu: and for the record, it is much higher bar than the above defined "usefully".
trinque: I've only been using the tappyputer for flash card, pretty narrow part of "learn language"

mircea_popescu: in fairness, when i was about 4 or 5 or so my parents wrote various pghone numbers of interest (such as my grandmother) on pieces of paper and afixed them about eye height around the house.
mircea_popescu: for a few months i had to run and check, but eventually brain was "fuck this shit, im learning it".
asciilifeform was shown once and learned...
mircea_popescu: imo the only real use of the flash card : make it moderately motor inconvenient to check. then you'll learn
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu must have had many many relatives
mircea_popescu: it's how i learned all the physics constants say, "fuck me if i have to check one more fucking time!"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, just zero inclination to memorize anything.
mircea_popescu: even today, if i'm trying to reference a girl it's 50% gonna be "you know, that one, with the hair". literally. then the girls have to sort out if i mean jodie foster or that chick we fucked once three months ago.

asciilifeform: as in, with own hands
p0nziph0ne: looking for possibilities to grow my knowledge and learn from others
asciilifeform: that is not a DO

p0nziph0ne: asciilifeform: but learning is a doing for me, or i might not get your question yet
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform guns kill people, rum robs people, you know how it is.
asciilifeform: p0nziph0ne: q was, what is it they paid you for
asciilifeform: for DOING
mircea_popescu: p0nziph0ne earlier you put forth this proposition that someone is enslaving you and so on. the only problem with this view is whether you actually do anything that's worth stealing. it's perfectly possible you just sit at home all day and eat the govt's dole.
asciilifeform: digging cable trenches? crapping our perl ? what.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> ... though i can see what mircea_popescu means. prb would not, iirc, eat a highS block. and several other types that trb happily eats. << PRB will eat high S when in block. Will fail to propagate high S until mined.
mircea_popescu: hm, actually i think bb has it.
asciilifeform: iirc it wouldn't eat it if in block # > N (for some N)
asciilifeform: i'ma check when i get home to the torture room.
mircea_popescu: iirc they didn't have the gumption to actually change verification code.

mircea_popescu: ag3nt_zer0 log bot.
ag3nt_zer0: just grabbing randoms?
ag3nt_zer0: oh, no ok

mircea_popescu: it reads out log lines when someone references the log it keeps. kinda how log bots work here.

asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: cojones.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform block version.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: DER is encoding standard for signature, nothing about S
BingoBoingo: DER stops the Gox "drop zeros"
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: cojones doesn't have the implication about size
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform bolludo from balls, argentine slang.
asciilifeform believes
mircea_popescu: anyway, without discussing all the rest of the matter : asciilifeform should a high-S block be included with version <3 that if would pass.
asciilifeform: only if top 750 blox are <3
asciilifeform: otherwise rejects.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> expression not so much. readonly is attainable. << Way to make jump seems to be read a book, listen to speakers, interject, keep interjecting until you can swim in conversation
asciilifeform: this was the latest prb handily indexed by jurov . possibly different logic in moar recents.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so at most prb goes away for a week.
mircea_popescu: big whoop.
asciilifeform: i didn't say it was a bigger woop.
asciilifeform: but that mircea_popescu was actually right in 'prb != bitcoin' strictly.
mircea_popescu: right. but i wouldn't say this qualifies as any sort of check.
asciilifeform: it can be wedged apart with a relatively compact crowbar.
mircea_popescu: but yes, prb is an amateurish attempt at a non-compliant bitcoin node.
asciilifeform: i suspect that the real forkgold is in the ecc routines.
asciilifeform: which are a fairly heavy chunk of voodoo, i've been slowly chewing through.
mircea_popescu: with all sorts of silly/quirky/potentially dangerous misbehaviours, neither defined nor ennumerated, yet irresponsibly baked in. because monkeys loive to code, can't read code.
mircea_popescu: like in that joke with the soviet policemen.
asciilifeform: ( both openssl turd and the moar recent prb-proprietary one )
BingoBoingo: https://archive.is/aiYBv << The DER tests, nothing about which S, which S wank came later https://archive.is/aiYBv
asciilifeform: interestingly there does not, by all indications, exist anywhere anything like a sane implementation of ecdsa
asciilifeform: to this day
mircea_popescu: how would it ?
asciilifeform: well, say somebody sat down an'... wrote one
mircea_popescu: like... who ?
asciilifeform: somebody!1111
mircea_popescu: "there exists no standard plumbing in anthill". well... um...
mircea_popescu: this is kinda not how anthill works.
asciilifeform: currently i strongly suspect that it is possible to produce a technically valid ecdsa sig that will choke 1 particular ecctron but NOT another particular one.
asciilifeform: instafork.
mircea_popescu: possibru.
asciilifeform: ( this is definitionally so if thing is sufficiently complex + ill-specified. )
asciilifeform: currently i also suspect that the whole ecc 'fashion' was instituted specifically to prevent a ffa-style treatment.
mircea_popescu: seems fertile ground for "gotcha" in any case.
asciilifeform: and i will note, if a cipher system REQUIRES a MB of source, it is not a cipher system but an overcomplicated practical joke
mircea_popescu: how long was mpfhf, fifty lines ?
asciilifeform: ( the question of whether it actually takes the mb -- will be settled when i get around to implementing )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: depends in what. but not so long.
mircea_popescu: so then 50 for a hash, say 100 for a cipher. seems fair to me.
asciilifeform: i dunno how to fit a bignumtron in 100
asciilifeform: ( 100 ~readable~ , clear ln )
mircea_popescu: the cipher tho, not the gcd
asciilifeform: if somebody does -- plz write in.
asciilifeform: i am counting whole shebang
mircea_popescu: well what, including display bindings ? the kernel ?
asciilifeform: ffa for instance does NOT rely on an os
asciilifeform: or kernel
mircea_popescu: it's fine if it imports its maffs.

asciilifeform: iirc they had ~this prior to the chix captains thing
mircea_popescu: what the fuck is the big deal anyway. what, they'll fuck her if she soaps her snatch on the deck ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform pissing over rail is ~same as "puke out window of bus on highway". works better in theory than in practice.
mircea_popescu: (btw, my 3x above is correct figure, obtained fgrom busy bar/club experience. the surface doesn't do it justice, you need 150% longer to use a toilet to pee than if you peed on the wall.)
mircea_popescu: so it's like 2.1x space 1.45x time or such.
f1maze: Ugh, what a long day. My head is ready to explode http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/Nj9YV/?raw=true
mircea_popescu: wouldja stop posting random rambling nonsense from the shannon noise farm ?
f1maze: Certainly, can be humourous at times though! sorry
f1maze: at least I dont join/part as much as the deep book^
f1maze: But seriously, time for me to unplug and get back to work. I will get the bouncer to help out my spam. Sorry farewell!
phf: a bouncer is a handy exercise in unixology, but you can also reduce the spam by joining only when you have something to say, or want to participate in conversation, and read the logs through web otherwise
phf: (that's what i do, i just also have a bouncer, so it's hard to see)

mircea_popescu: i guess it only goes to show most spam is done by pointless crap.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-02#1692429 << ever lived in a house with a leaking reddit pipe ?

asciilifeform: terrible thing
asciilifeform: out, out, it seeps.
asciilifeform: bad enough when leakage is out on the sidewalk.
mircea_popescu: lol. can't say as i have.
shinohai The Baron Titsbare approves ......
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo amazon buying whole foods check it out. << Yeah, Amazon is headed for a Trump confrontation
BingoBoingo: Trump is going to have to hit Bezos with the Teddy Roosevelt anti-trust stick, killing the Amazon Wapo's credibility on the way
mircea_popescu: seems likely dunnit
BingoBoingo: Almost inevitable at this point. Possibly this might be the ONLY actual point of contention between Trump and Sessions.
mircea_popescu: how the fuck is he going to run a socialist soviet with antitrust laws on the books is anyone's guess.
mircea_popescu: what, a herd of mini-czars for each fieldf, holding plenaries ?
BingoBoingo: That's kinda what Hussein Bahamas tried.
BingoBoingo: Anyways, at present the stick exists. Jeff Bezos is asking for it.
