mircea_popescu: nope, this is straight battery. no cap.
mircea_popescu: item itself actually holds 3-5x that, if you're voltage-agnostic.
asciilifeform: pretty great for starting yer dirigible's 4 3kHp maybachs...
mircea_popescu: AAAAND with a 4.4 kW powerplant... you really can run all the electronics you possibly could conceivably wish to have.
asciilifeform slowly eats log, omfg the aol
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if it's a lipo tho, it's good for mebbe hundred cycles
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform coupla of the people might well have a clue.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nah. lead-acid.
asciilifeform: ~dozen then
asciilifeform uses these here
mircea_popescu: free replacement 3 year warranty, baby.
mircea_popescu: AND it cost like a hundy, which means... where's that trilema with the bug ?
asciilifeform: you mentioned cranking tho, as advertised application
asciilifeform: that's a hint
asciilifeform: they aren't, dollars to doughnuts, warrantied for deepcycling
mircea_popescu: well, sparkgap, cranking, what the hell's the difference.
asciilifeform: massive diff
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it doesn't deep cycle over that.
asciilifeform: cranking is a few seconds, a few % discharge
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform 30 seconds by spec.
asciilifeform: use in ups, is deepcycle, potentially 100% discharge
asciilifeform: aaaaaa see.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the application here was, "gee, how cheap is mobility!" ; but again : for a zek coin (as per http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-16#1752109 ) you can have 100 of these. serialize them, the half minute becomes eight hours.
a111: Logged on 2017-12-16 02:45 mircea_popescu: technically .5 btc is "more money than zek is pewrmitted to have" as it is.

mircea_popescu: per cockroachcoin
asciilifeform: i think 100 of these would fall through my floor
mircea_popescu: nah, what, 5kgs each ? ~same as hosting a card trading party.
asciilifeform: truck cells ( which is what these are ) also vent H2 when charging
shinohai: boom
mircea_popescu: speaking of which : nerdy ho took me to the nerd's mothership here ; it dun look much from rthe road, but inside : manga store, comicbook store, toy and figurine store, sushi plant, coffee house, BAR, and highschoolers.
mircea_popescu: shares parking with a fucking office depot of all things.

BingoBoingo: BMW motocicleta demasiado alta para mi. No ergonomico
shinohai thought of BingoBoingo when he saw this: http://btcinfo.sdf.org/uploads/tarnacion.jpg
shinohai: dunno why
mircea_popescu: according to cornmarketcap, bitcoin crash still work like more than a public servant monthly salary.
asciilifeform: howsthat
mircea_popescu: GS-1 makes 17 to 22k pa. 2140 is > that.
asciilifeform: afaik those dun physically exist ( they start at iirc 5-7 in most ministries )

mircea_popescu: can't be arsed to video. summary ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it'll take you A YEAR to make gs2, you know this ?

asciilifeform: iirc the coinola stolen by usg from btce et al, was scheduled for waterfall , so possibly it, nao.
mircea_popescu: if the price wouldn't move how would teh excitable stay excited
BingoBoingo: Aha, the context and the laughing!
BingoBoingo: In other unconscious association... Montevideo department (department being akin to a province) is abreviated MO, which is Missouri's postal code. At least once a day mi cerebro thinks Uruguay is in Missouri.
mircea_popescu: weather just about wet/balmy enough too eh
BingoBoingo: Aha, the median summer temperatures and humidity are very similar, but the extremes encountered in the Middle west don't happen as routinely here
BingoBoingo: Come winter the lack of extremes should be still more noticable? Only below 0C en la madrugada!
mircea_popescu: no fucking way it gets to freezing there
BingoBoingo: The locals insist it happens at least 4 or 5 days a year in the mornings
mircea_popescu: i dunno...
shinohai: I loved watching teh latino immigrants here a few weekends ago when it snowed. Most have never seen it, so they were all dressed up in layers of NorthFace coats and gloves.
BingoBoingo: shinohai: You should have seen the Brasileros y Brasileras at the Hostel for the expocannabis when the cool night wind blew in. Coats, blankets, etc...
mircea_popescu: it got windy here a week or two ago. maaaybe dropped as low as 15C briefly. o my teh shivers, teh sads.
mircea_popescu: i'd be like "hey, this car got no AC ?" and people would just park on the side of the road, to stare. blinkers on, everything
BingoBoingo: Hay mucho veinto aca esta semana. Y entonces hoy, mucho sol fuerte.
mircea_popescu: supposedly that's the best way to sundry the gringo : cool wind and strong sun. he'll fry before he knows what boiled frogs are
shinohai: I had some weird shit happen to me after my surgery, cold doesn't affect me like that anymore. I generally never wear more than tshort outside around the house.
shinohai: *tshirt
BingoBoingo still can't believe how delicious the tap water is here
mircea_popescu: ya montevideo had great water.
BingoBoingo: And the salus half water half jugo de manzana isn't bad either
BingoBoingo: Anyways, the wind/sun combination necessitates mucha agua y mas sunscreen
BingoBoingo: If I could have packed again I would have packed less clothing and more electronics.
BingoBoingo probably ought to bake a blog post on the past week's learnings por otro gingos de la republica
shinohai: But chinches LOVE electronics BingoBoingo .... would have been a pita to get them out.
mircea_popescu: what could it possibru hurt
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo "A bit of walking suggests this is because the locals tend to know very well where they get on and off the bus very well, but"
BingoBoingo: shinohai: Only when they are powered up and on. No heat signature, no chinches.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: ty fxd
mircea_popescu: and the observation is indeed fine. VERY bus-bound culture in south and central america. between the strange "strong families" where you'll see batshit insanity like 20yo woiman OUT WITH HER MOTHER and, importantly, HIDING IN MOM SKIRTS, and the terrible eg signalling for cars everywhere etc, AND a very land-possessive mentality, most people will simply not go to any new place.
mircea_popescu: if they know you there they'll come tro you, but self-power exploration is ~nil.
mircea_popescu: and the whole "danger" social discourse very much is an artefact of this.
mircea_popescu: not to mention the PORTON!! everywhere. looks like they're preparing for imminent alien invasion, these fellows.
BingoBoingo: I have heard much "don't go to ciudad vieja en la noche"
mircea_popescu: imagine, i have girls going about half naked in stripper heels at like, 3am. scares the shit out of the locals for entirely imaginary reasons
BingoBoingo: And what did I see? Idle young males! "OMG idle young males, maybe if I molestar them they just might be roused from idleness!"
mircea_popescu: "oh, this is the bad part of town" "Why ?" "i just don't come here very often" "why not ?" "it's the bad part of town"
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo exactly.
mircea_popescu: "dude... flock of seagulls wrecked into the sidewalk over there couldn't get it up if i paid him to."
shinohai: Lessee, I've been here almost every day for the past ~3+ years and don't ever recall an extended server outage on irc, yet this alt-irc telegram I'm forced to use with the girls goes down at least twice monthly.
mircea_popescu: there's this formative moment in every pornographer's life (or at least, every pornographer worth his salt's life) where he's driving around a partybus fulla naked sluts and tries to pick up jocks from the street to fuck 'em. except... can't. even if they get in, which is a 1:10 shot at best, they can't really get it up ; and if they do it lasts half a minute and happens in the camera-unfriendliest manner possible.
BingoBoingo: In James Lafond presents St Louis, Missouri all the idle young males would have been darker and tried provoking me to action with their racial slurs. Here, idle means idle
mircea_popescu: (which is another massive giveaway of "leaked" sex tapes. bitch, that's not how accidental filmed fucking looks like.)
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i suspect portion of james lafond presents james lafond might be dramatization for the screen.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, sure. But I've met quite a few young abogados estadounidense who went drinking in St Louis and got quite the beating after responding to racial slurs in kind
mircea_popescu: so did they respond to beating in kind ?
mircea_popescu: this is how lower class makes friends, neh ? eternal and unmoved, first you cuss each other out, then you duke it out, then you're friends for life.
BingoBoingo: Outnumbered and had the problem on having had the money for liquor,
mircea_popescu: yeah, that numbers bs... it's sad, really.
BingoBoingo: They went to law school, barriers of their minds, etc
mircea_popescu personally spent half hour at age 15 trying to find the most effectual insults for this dude a mutual friend had just introduced ; we were best friends after that!
BingoBoingo: Perhaps it was their first time getting punched?
mircea_popescu: which is a damned shame.
BingoBoingo will bake blog post after tarea
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i have nfi why ANYTHING ELSE is deemed virginity in males. this. this right here. bitch, take a punch now and again, it's good for you.
BingoBoingo: It's the primary value of having brothers
mircea_popescu: or friends.
mircea_popescu: or you know, a town, a country.
BingoBoingo: That too, but brothers prepares one for friends, prepares one for town, prepares one for country
mircea_popescu: i guess so huh
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo o hey, so you got a local gf basically ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: So it appears
mircea_popescu: cool deal.
BingoBoingo: My spanish isn't quite good enough to be entirely sure
mircea_popescu: nor most people's english, or w/e their mom spoke.
BingoBoingo: Anywas, it is good she is in Las Piedras and tiene trabajar, so I have time to get shit done
mircea_popescu: very vaguely in the vein of http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-21#1756072 : holy shit nobody thought that getinfo should include A TIMESTAMP ? whatr sort of broken minds come up with this crap!
a111: Logged on 2017-12-21 17:38 mircea_popescu: anyway, continuing the trinque discussion, it seems entirely unavoidable that trb will become 3 things : a wallet node, optimized for pumping out local signed tx ; a block node, optimized for keeping the blockchain, getting blocks, no mempool nonsense ; and a spy node, optimized to keeping track of the lies and nonsense flowing through the relay network (mempool, timing nodes, what have you).
mircea_popescu: and it's entirely symptomatic and representative. whole fucking steaming pile of shit was designed, or rather, "designed" by a bright idiot who was capable to compose an info screen without a timestamp on it.

mircea_popescu: it's used in key primality testing ; but not otherwise.
mircea_popescu: i suppose my point is muchly weakened by the evident effort at a cover-up
mircea_popescu: but still, in principle. somewhere else, in a galaxy far away...

BingoBoingo: Ah, alt boyscouts
asciilifeform: lotta pictures of 'prize' farm animals etc
asciilifeform: on the walls.
asciilifeform: very 'agronomist'-flavoured .
BingoBoingo: They have a strong presence at every rural county fair
asciilifeform: some of the oldest halls at uni of md had similar flavour, even smell, decour, etc. until recently torn down
sofiababy: are you american bingo
BingoBoingo: sofiababy: I am a refugee
sofiababy: from?
BingoBoingo: Estados Unidos
sofiababy: where did you take refuge
BingoBoingo: A paradise that Brazilians and other residents of vacation destinations vacation to
BingoBoingo: Es muy tranquilo aca.
sofiababy: my spanish is very bad im greek
BingoBoingo: No mucho gringos aca.
BingoBoingo: sofiababy: The only way to learn it is to use it.
sofiababy: i agree well il learn spanish if you learn swahilli
BingoBoingo: Who could I talk to in Swahili, and who said I knew spanish?
sofiababy: i speak swahili
BingoBoingo: With whom?
sofiababy: i grew up in africa
BingoBoingo: When's the last time you spoke swahili?
sofiababy: living in london i dont speak it anymore no one to speak wit it
mircea_popescu: man this is getting tedious.
mircea_popescu: !!down sofiababy
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-22#1757073 << in living memory it's been a rarity. approx as many tenures issued , per yr, as senatorships
a111: Logged on 2017-12-22 19:01 mircea_popescu: do they even give out tenures anymore ?
mircea_popescu: good thing nobody told the subretard kids, they still chase it as a life choice.
asciilifeform: ~same odds as in pro sport
mircea_popescu: "what's worse than being really really dumb ? being a really really smart american."
asciilifeform: and there's no shortage of would-be footballists
BingoBoingo: Eh, failed footballist usually at least good for work in the trades
BingoBoingo: failed academist good for ???
asciilifeform: and failed tenurist... well, depending on what kind.
mircea_popescu: generally they end up cloggiong the start-up "market"
asciilifeform: those want youngsters.
mircea_popescu has observed this, 3 idiots around a table, "hey, we were educated at $ivy-league, we should be able to come up with something".
asciilifeform: ( sometimes yes, end up in sv, but as active perpetrators of scamola, rather than foot-soldiers )
mircea_popescu: you think of sv in terms of what the andressen-graham-etc scammers ADVERTISE
mircea_popescu: not in the sense of what is.
mircea_popescu: what is, very much deadbeat 30yo+ couldn't make tenure, by bulk. a case of "your friennd wioth blood sweart and tears" nonsense.
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2012/and-another-one-bites-the-dust-bitmarketeu/#selection-99.0-99.63 sorta deal. it's very fundamental this, "they told us this is the premiere science and engineering place IN THE WORLD!!! how come we can't compete with an average teenager ?"
mircea_popescu: similarily and in the same vein, most waitresses in LA planning their acting career are neither hot nor young.
BingoBoingo: Very much this
BingoBoingo: Startup and acting career planning tend to happen after the possibility of fun has burnt up
mircea_popescu: by mass, people "with an idea" and "a team" looking "for venture capital" are neither smart nor young nor actually part of a team or sitting on an idea nor anything else. it's a popular activity, so they're by and large ~= man on the street.

r41n: this chan is p much 100% btc right?
BingoBoingo: r41n: Depends on what you are taking percent of

r41n: mircea_popescu: right on
r41n: BingoBoingo: actually someone was pushing eth on me, so far its been a solid investment, i tired a few others, wish i had kept it all in btc now
r41n: however what i have in shitcoins isnt enough to bother to exchange for me rn honestly
r41n: now does seem like the time to invest more into btc though
mircea_popescu: do you work ?
r41n: yes
mircea_popescu: doing what ?
r41n: it technician
mircea_popescu: like laying utp cable and shit ?
r41n: no, i work for a small company, i make sure everyone's shit is running
r41n: i write policies
r41n: dabble into our infrastructure a bit
r41n: i do a lot of random things
r41n: small company = get a lot of random shit put on your plate
r41n: i like it though, everyone i work with is cool
BingoBoingo: In other death throes: "In its latest attempt to rejoin the rest of us in the Tinder era, dating site OkCupid is getting rid of usernames. That’s not shocking at a time when online anonymity isn’t just an occasional annoyance but a legitimate threat to democracy, but it is curious in one way: In its blog post announcing the change, OkCupid seemed to go out of its way to mock its own users."

mircea_popescu: you can change it if you still control it yes.
joecool: mircea_popescu: I do, it's in another physical location
mircea_popescu: i dun recall what the procedure is, does it let you !!register the new one ? (as in, spits out a v string ?)
joecool: i'll have to check it in a couple days when i can get the other key out of storage
joecool: unless being able to sign with my primary key is enough
mircea_popescu: what is primary key here ?
joecool: F495E1D1
mircea_popescu: !!key joecool
mircea_popescu: so you can sign with it but not decrypt ?!

mircea_popescu: i c. will want to hear what trinque says on this.

trinque: just pointing out that I might be corrupting the youfs by not taking a firmer line on "put a sane single key into deedbot and always have it, or proceed by the *only* mechanism to change key, or die"
trinque: it's a rot that flows from relying on gpg, and I've thus far considered that tightening around asciilifeform's P is the appropriate time for it.
BigTexasBingo: From gpg from gribble auth, from a whole lot of accumulated trash
BigTexasBingo: Brb, done hacer pupu
trinque: anyhow, there's no signing auth mechanism, and I don't want to feature creep the thing. I will however change a key for anybody that demonstrates control of both.
shinohai: feature creep kill gribble so yeah
trinque: the relationship to the wallet is also important to consider. wallet and deedbot do not share state, beyond deedbot initially communicating a (key, nick) pair to wallet. at that time, of course, the wallet is empty.
trinque: "update" is always way more dangerous than "insert" eh?
