(trilema) nubbins`: o hi mp
(trilema) nubbins`: anton_osika not my contract so i have NFI. but i don't see anything in there that requires you to take any further action
(trilema) nubbins`: why you gotta sign something?
(trilema) nubbins`: looks like it's tied to a payout address and nothing else
(trilema) nubbins`: back up your backups
(trilema) nubbins`: if you sent aliens an accurate picture of the current state of affairs, they'd turn us into space dust
(trilema) nubbins`: lel.
(trilema) nubbins`: http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/images/user5/imageroot/2012/09/fake%20gold%203.jpg
(trilema) nubbins`: BET THERE'S A STORY WE'LL NEVER HEAR BEHIND THAT
(trilema) nubbins`: canada sold all its gold, save 3 tons, in ~2006
(trilema) nubbins`: so close, not even close
(trilema) nubbins`: 2250 coins, level 19
(trilema) nubbins`: so all this is "other people's problems"
(trilema) nubbins`: anyway, i'm way too selfish and irresponsible to sire a child
(trilema) nubbins`: as if "take you" has any meaning to a toddler
(trilema) nubbins`: "don't run away, sweetie, someone might take you!" to a 3yo
(trilema) nubbins`: nevermind that his brain won't work like that for another half-decade at best
(trilema) nubbins`: as if being not very nice is a thing this animal would abhor
(trilema) nubbins`: THAT ISN'T VERY NICE IS IT
(trilema) nubbins`: lelel
(trilema) nubbins`: 1 level left to complete in captain toad
(trilema) nubbins`: but: gotta focus
(trilema) nubbins`: i'm tempted to grab Worms 2
(trilema) nubbins`: heh.
(trilema) nubbins`: isn't robert mugabe the current head of the AU?
(trilema) nubbins`: lel
(trilema) nubbins`: http://cointelegraph.com/news/115266/bitcoin-will-be-the-technology-that-unifies-a-united-states-of-africa
(trilema) nubbins`: yeah it's a constant battle
(trilema) nubbins`: oh, there's an R4 3DS now.
(trilema) nubbins`: i had an R4DS cart for my ds, took microsd
(trilema) nubbins`: shame
(trilema) nubbins`: fun
(trilema) nubbins`: you were thinking of Worms, maybe?
(trilema) nubbins`: heh
(trilema) nubbins`: ^ best lemmings
(trilema) nubbins`: so i guess it was DOS
(trilema) nubbins`: lemmings is actually why we bought our first mouse
(trilema) nubbins`: the game's only $20usd, but they give you the wii u AND 3ds versions with purchase, and i don't have a 3ds
(trilema) nubbins`: we had a few lemmings games, always fun
(trilema) nubbins`: so you can grab cool new levels that others have created, etc
(trilema) nubbins`: danielpbarron seems so. and there's a level creation/sharing thing
(trilema) nubbins`: luckily for me, all the text in korean mario kart was just transliterated english
(trilema) nubbins`: i had two actual DS carts (mario kart korean version, advance wars 2) before i bought an SD loader
(trilema) nubbins`: nfi really
(trilema) nubbins`: i think they look pretty similar
(trilema) nubbins`: danielpbarron let's go halfsies on a game
(trilema) nubbins`: trinque only the socialist state?
(trilema) nubbins`: cazalla i had a similar device to your sky3ds or w/e for my original DS
(trilema) nubbins`: in fairness, you guys are all pretty weird
(trilema) nubbins`: buncha miscreants
(trilema) nubbins`: o look, one of the local prostitutes seems to be pregnant
(trilema) nubbins`: will be quite the spectacle either way, yep.
(trilema) nubbins`: just tired of boots on their throats
(trilema) nubbins`: mp can probably relate tales of .ro folk going apeshit in streets in late 80s, early 90s, and they weren't muslim
(trilema) nubbins`: going apeshit in the streets is generally a direct result of treatment, either by other citizens or government
(trilema) nubbins`: trinque, if you'd asked the british whether the irish were rather culturally similar, they'd have said no
(trilema) nubbins`: and we're (arguably) doing ok now
(trilema) nubbins`: refugees escaping an oppressive regime
(trilema) nubbins`: this whole part of the country i live in was mainly settled by irish escaping the potato famine
(trilema) nubbins`: anyway, who knows?
(trilema) nubbins`: might as well suggest the refugees head to usa.
(trilema) nubbins`: as if anyone in the fucking world wants to live in saudi arabia
(trilema) nubbins`: "saudi arabia can house X refugees, why aren't they heading there?"
(trilema) nubbins`: the cynic in me wonders if the whole "refugee quotas" thing is germany's push to cripple other EU economies
(trilema) nubbins`: i can drink 18 beers, but not in an hour
(trilema) nubbins`: trinque my understanding is that it's not the numbers but the timing.
(trilema) nubbins`: "look, see? refugees throwing rocks at police" under a photograph of a football riot from 2012.
(trilema) nubbins`: i'm actually playing captain toad treasure tracker atm
(trilema) nubbins`: etc
(trilema) nubbins`: as if you can't buy a used smartphone for $100
(trilema) nubbins`: as if the mattresses were not brought there by local citizens
(trilema) nubbins`: as if somehow it makes more sense to bring a goddamn mattress on a train instead of your only link to the outside world
(trilema) nubbins`: lots of people pointing to pictures of, e.g., mattresses & trash left behind in train stations, refugees holding "$600 cell phones"
(trilema) nubbins`: this whole refugee thing is really bringing the complete fucking idiots out of the woodwork
(trilema) nubbins`: unrelated: http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canada-election-2015-rick-hillier-refugees-military-christmas-1.3225732
(trilema) nubbins`: it's not uncommon for serious cyclists (touring 100km+, racing, etc) to purchase high quality steel frames that were made 20+ years ago
(trilema) nubbins`: https://www.google.ca/search?q=bicycle+frame+failure&tbm=isch is not smth you want happening while you're doing 60km/h in traffic
(trilema) nubbins`: constant chain derailments, heavy friction wear from parts grinding, frame failures from bad welds...
(trilema) nubbins`: most cheap bicycles simply do not work for any reasonable definition of "work"
(trilema) nubbins`: most of the cost is in components; a frame is a frame (to some extent), but having your brake discs machined vs stamped from sheet makes a big difference for longevity as well as maintenance
(trilema) nubbins`: $500+ will buy you something you can rely on to, e.g., get you to work/school/market every day for years without failure
(trilema) nubbins`: $100 will buy you what is commonly referred to as a BSO -- a Bicycle-Shaped Object
(trilema) nubbins`: asciilifeform: re: the cost of bicycles -- i'm reminded of your rant about how in computing, there's no "professional grade equipment", i.e. people who code for a living are using the same hw as people who check facebook all day long
(trilema) nubbins`: plus, mario kart 8. just saying.
(trilema) nubbins`: good for filthy casuals
(trilema) nubbins`: but wii u is pretty fun.
(trilema) nubbins`: idgaf about "gaming" "CoD" "achievements" etc
(trilema) nubbins`: frisbee golf > golf
(trilema) nubbins`: i have a wii u, but not a 3ds
(trilema) nubbins`: there's a Lemmings-esque game out for Wii U and 3DS; purchase one version and get a free download code for the other version
(trilema) nubbins`: hrmph
(trilema) nubbins`: ;;seen diametric
(trilema) nubbins`: any of you nerds own a nintendo 3ds?
(trilema) nubbins`: trinque consider it posteriorized?
(trilema) nubbins`: a few people stand around a sack on the ground, figuring out what to do with it. one fatso says "i want to put so many things inside that only i can carry it around!"
(trilema) nubbins`: just as likely it'll push smallies out of the picture
(trilema) nubbins`: because before you know it he's taking another look at the intubators
(trilema) nubbins`: i don't think that banging sluts is a thing that someone who is driving around europe going to /incubators/ is doing
(trilema) nubbins`: williamdunne understand this is like "i have a new business idea: an e-business!" in 1992
(trilema) nubbins`: !up ascii_field
(trilema) nubbins`: whoosh
(trilema) nubbins`: relaxedman a window what?
(trilema) nubbins`: who's this nick guy anyway.
(trilema) nubbins`: heh.
(trilema) nubbins`: pogoplug node operators 2 years from now: http://i.imgur.com/qc9Tok1.jpg
(trilema) nubbins`: fair trade if xtc is the future.
(trilema) nubbins`: ^ any troo beeleevers wanna take me up on it?
(trilema) nubbins`: [16:24:31] <nubbins`> bounce: the idea is you'd create a 10mb transaction sending out xtc to your buyers, in return they push small tx sending you same amount in btc
(trilema) nubbins`: btc <-> xtc forex should open some interesting opportunities
(trilema) nubbins` wipes tear
(trilema) nubbins`: ahhh, the lulz.
(trilema) nubbins`: complete with wrapping <blink></blink>
(trilema) nubbins`: this is akin to the declaration of independence being written in 18pt comic sans
(trilema) nubbins`: that header clinches it
(trilema) nubbins`: if you didn't already realize xt was DOA
(trilema) nubbins`: "we need to make this new subreddit STAT. we literally do not have 3 minutes to make a new header. take the old one and ph0t05h0p it"
(trilema) nubbins`: Мои стороны!
(trilema) nubbins`: mis lados
(trilema) nubbins`: it's a PNG with a non-transparent background.
(trilema) nubbins`: oh, no, sorry. i apologize.
(trilema) nubbins`: it looks like they literally copied the /r/bitcoin header, magic-wand-selected the background, paint-bucketed it blue, tacked on "xt" and saved it as a jpeg
(trilema) nubbins`: wonder who made the header logo, hearn?
(trilema) nubbins`: just saying
(trilema) nubbins`: https://www.reddit.com/r/bitcoinxt/comments/3hc5zz/the_declaration_of_bitcoins_independence/cu65bfi
(trilema) nubbins`: i think that was a lens flare
(trilema) nubbins`: nah i don't crochet
(trilema) nubbins`: maybe the most outta-focus picture i've ever taken
(trilema) nubbins`: dory tried to climb up onto my shoulders as i stood up ;/
(trilema) nubbins`: fucked up hey?
(trilema) nubbins`: srsly, one day "who is this man standing next to joanne mcleod?"
(trilema) nubbins`: they still make new commercials from time to time
(trilema) nubbins`: he shaved it in recent years
(trilema) nubbins`: peaked at 3.3MB/s, notbadforeuro.jpg
(trilema) nubbins`: hal is not the same without the soup strainer
(trilema) nubbins`: pete_dushenski mine sides
(trilema) nubbins`: while i do own a full-body wolf suit, i've never had sex or masturbated while wearing it
(trilema) nubbins`: o.O
(trilema) nubbins`: so i had to download a font yesterday for a client project. txt file in folder says "this font was created for the first ever european furry convention"
(trilema) nubbins`: i'm probably going backwards to toronto or montreal first
(trilema) nubbins`: heh that'll do it
(trilema) nubbins`: topping out at ~3.2MB/s
(trilema) nubbins`: it's nice to exercise the fiber, even if it seems a bit slow
(trilema) nubbins`: plus i so rarely have occasion to download large files
(trilema) nubbins`: been a while since i tried a mystery-viewing
(trilema) nubbins`: kakobrekla tks for the movie!
(trilema) nubbins`: bbl making cat posters ;p
(trilema) nubbins` gestures
(trilema) nubbins` claps
(trilema) nubbins`: since they encountered enough nasty pervs to realize?
(trilema) nubbins`: sad :/
(trilema) nubbins`: i actually went back to browse the BME community website thing
(trilema) nubbins`: heh.
(trilema) nubbins`: oh wait ;p
(trilema) nubbins`: you make cypherpunks sound like slummed-out ne'er-do-wells
(trilema) nubbins`: <+mircea_popescu> nubbins` i always thought you're like the only cypherpunk here you know. <<< wat
(trilema) nubbins`: n6 heck, pull up a chair
(trilema) nubbins`: n6 when you said "cypherpunk" i stopped caring :P
(trilema) nubbins`: no offense
(trilema) nubbins`: your friend sounds like a chump
(trilema) nubbins`: i have 5 bucks says MP is getting a woman to read this back to him later
(trilema) nubbins` chuckles
(trilema) nubbins`: you went to hook up with him o.O
(trilema) nubbins`: LEL all those unrates.
(trilema) nubbins`: o jeez
(trilema) nubbins`: !s thickasthieves
(trilema) nubbins`: ^ bummer
(trilema) nubbins` takes notes
(trilema) nubbins`: for the amount of shady things he was into
(trilema) nubbins`: he got way too much of a pass in here
(trilema) nubbins`: i guess he got his cream and moved on
(trilema) nubbins`: re:neobee, wonder what happened to thickasthieves
(trilema) nubbins`: peace
(trilema) nubbins`: anyway i should go listen to music and inhale drug smoke
(trilema) nubbins`: add a spare blade, i think i dropped close to a thou on that fucking thing
(trilema) nubbins`: ~$700usd plus s&h
(trilema) nubbins`: ^ my beast
(trilema) nubbins`: wait, i was having fun? :D
(trilema) nubbins` points to client who paid $1ea for business cards, printed and trimmed by hand, because digital offset shop w/ electronic die cutter did such a shitty job o.O
(trilema) nubbins`: this isn't always the metric tho
(trilema) nubbins`: goodness no.
(trilema) nubbins`: cuts so clean you could shave in 'em.
(trilema) nubbins`: i do have a lovely plough, cca 14th century tech, that can trim a phone book cleaner than the phone book factory does
(trilema) nubbins`: we're more of a quality over quantity sort of shop
(trilema) nubbins`: too many electric cutters
(trilema) nubbins`: and not just of the arts, either
(trilema) nubbins`: i have neither the means nor the will
(trilema) nubbins`: the process of making them lose is itself an unreasonable burden
(trilema) nubbins`: meantime, i have paper to cut, feet to rest on coffee tables...
(trilema) nubbins`: but am i gonna spend a year in court arguing it?
(trilema) nubbins`: listen, i don't disagree
(trilema) nubbins` shrugs
(trilema) nubbins`: "by refusing the breathalyzer, you waive the right to claim you're sober"
(trilema) nubbins`: "by making us guess whether you have a basement apartment, you waive your right to claim that you don't"
(trilema) nubbins`: and you waive the right to appeal o.O
(trilema) nubbins`: you don't let em in, they're forced to do their assessment from the street
(trilema) nubbins`: actually it's the other way around
(trilema) nubbins`: heh
(trilema) nubbins`: and the homeowner tells you to fuck off
(trilema) nubbins`: it's where they count your bathrooms and look at your basement and make sure they're charging you enough property tax
(trilema) nubbins`: oh, city workers knocked on my door the other day requesting entry for "propertyassessment"
(trilema) nubbins`: this intro sold me on the rest of it
(trilema) nubbins`: science sort of drives it out
(trilema) nubbins`: salvation is on its way out as a motivator
(trilema) nubbins`: there's tricks you can still pull and tricks you can't
(trilema) nubbins`: asciilifeform the fact that the si and hf exists means the guy's probably not as much of a fuckin rube as the dude who built the church his grandfather was married in
(trilema) nubbins`: not in 1st world anyway. when i was in the sacred valley of peru, right in the middle of a 7 hour hike i came across a bunch of guys building a church outta mud bricks
(trilema) nubbins`: no stonemasons work for the good of their community any longer
(trilema) nubbins`: but, this is now a relic of the past
(trilema) nubbins`: nah, what i was going at is that people wanted to do it for free
(trilema) nubbins`: altho the church builders were generally more free to fuck off and do something else
(trilema) nubbins`: and it's the same thing that the church builders had going for them
(trilema) nubbins`: the pyramid builders had one more thing going for them
(trilema) nubbins`: heh
(trilema) nubbins` applauds softly
(trilema) nubbins`: dem mentats!
(trilema) nubbins`: heh
(trilema) nubbins`: but what!
(trilema) nubbins`: good enough to keep me going until it's time to head out
(trilema) nubbins`: peak silicon!
(trilema) nubbins`: (from http://www.theonion.com/article/us-economy-grinds-to-halt-as-nation-realizes-money-2912 )
(trilema) nubbins`: whoops, guess that broke assbot's url handler
(trilema) nubbins`: (from http://www.theonion.com/article/us-economy-grinds-to-halt-as-nation-realizes-money-2912)
(trilema) nubbins`: When asked, hypothetically, how he would pay for complicated life-saving surgery for a loved one, Polk seemed uncertain. "That's a lot of vegetables, isn't it?" he said.
(trilema) nubbins`: o hey, friend of mine designed an album cover for an astronaut.
(trilema) nubbins`: "call off the police: law-abiding citizen count higher than ever"
(trilema) nubbins`: from log

(trilema) nubbins`: lel.
(trilema) nubbins`: was gonna argue but realized i misread
(trilema) nubbins` drools, imagines machinery
(trilema) nubbins`: and then i found myself in a spiral of photolitho articles.
(trilema) nubbins`: ooh, is it because we drowned in plastic and trademarked seeds?
(trilema) nubbins`: like parties, for example.
(trilema) nubbins`: TBH i think stuff like VLSI is only kept going because everyone involved is afraid the machines won't start up again if they stop
(trilema) nubbins`: you gotta qualify that w/ scale or smth
(trilema) nubbins`: o.O
