(trilema) ben_vulpes: now i need to replace it, but from dust accumulation from shithead pressed shitboard 'house' fabricator who infested the lot next door lo this past year
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i locked mine to the car for a year or so, then stopped
(trilema) ben_vulpes: srsly?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: maybe a minute to get on and off once practiced
(trilema) ben_vulpes: car covers cost ~40 dollars
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: suburbia is a plague born of the curse of oil
(trilema) ben_vulpes: but i would like to for example work on the thing at night, with lights, while dry
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i know where the heated car storage in town is
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i have an uncovered driveway alongside my house, could make it covered

(trilema) ben_vulpes: hey man i've never tested the buckling load of my own cock
(trilema) ben_vulpes: worse than being stomped on, dick at least has somewhere to go relative to tiny feet. NO ESCAPE FROM THE DIAPER
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i was worried about structural damage for a moment

(trilema) ben_vulpes: oh fuckin gross
(trilema) ben_vulpes: the vassals for whom this grates, straight to gpg.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: there are republicans of various standing, their vassals, and everyone else.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: there is no bar to presentation of previously signed documents at a later point.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: could be contractual even if contract never executed in chan or even deeded.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: would be interesting to see gpg wedding contracts
(trilema) ben_vulpes: or possibly implicit!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: a contractual relationship between republicans.

(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: what means "state to petraeus" then?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: so what's going to happen with tillerson?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: too many 'tits at dinner', i guess, they all run together
(trilema) ben_vulpes: looks like a rerun
(trilema) ben_vulpes: aka heat required to raise a gram of the material 1c

(trilema) ben_vulpes: http://www.kdnuggets.com/2015/07/deep-learning-adversarial-examples-misconceptions.html
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "Fact: Adversarial examples generalize across models trained to perform the same task, even if those models have different architectures and were trained on a different training set. This means an attacker can train their own model, generate adversarial examples against it, and then deploy those adversarial examples against a model they do not have access to."
(trilema) ben_vulpes: petraeus for state oh that's rich
(trilema) ben_vulpes: anyways, asciilifeform my queue is rather deep, working with mod6 on a thing
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i'm talking about that funky github repo.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: he?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: rather rude litte gnome isn't it.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: earlier i saw 3 lines from trinque hit all at once.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: interesting, my irc client is not receiving
(trilema) ben_vulpes: even having the lock on is pretty uncommon, people go to lengths to turn it off
(trilema) ben_vulpes: or the ability to hand phone to friends and unlock it
(trilema) ben_vulpes: foregoing oblique unlock is going to be hard to jam down the kids throat
(trilema) ben_vulpes: heh veen and i broke apple's facial recognition on the first day it shipped. filed report, crickets.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: or lol hadn't until right now
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: aya, the odd thing by my read is that it is responding to rpc calls but hasn't found from whom to get the rest of the blocks
(trilema) ben_vulpes: just saw this in my logs: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/2HMaz/?raw=true
(trilema) ben_vulpes: it would be feasible to chart time density of log statements
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and no i am not.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: node has only recently begun responding to rpc calls
(trilema) ben_vulpes: aye, can't quite see why it'd be stuck there
(trilema) ben_vulpes: node attached to mimisbrunnr is stuck at 454003
(trilema) ben_vulpes: (because everyone reads the logs?)
(trilema) ben_vulpes: that node's not wedged but very far behind.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: well, the node to which mimisbrunnr's attached.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: my node is entirely locked up atm
(trilema) ben_vulpes: just cutting through decades of nutritive malinformation over here
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: because of increased protein intake i gather?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: how do you know this, and also what does it do to boys
(trilema) ben_vulpes: s-sauce?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: yeah. eyebrow only works if it implies "how to deliver punishment"
(trilema) ben_vulpes looks, sees no more vegetarians in his house
(trilema) ben_vulpes: instead of a thrashing i mean.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: an eyebrow should suffice.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: yes
(trilema) ben_vulpes: sad inevitability of governing by numbers.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: hence the magic number (18!!!) with exceptions (unless you're both under 18! except if we want to try you as an adult!)
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "queer victorians" or some such
(trilema) ben_vulpes: atlantic even did a piece on a victorian child bride recently
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i thought he was a blogger scraped off some other vc firm's shoe
(trilema) ben_vulpes: altman is supposed to be an engineer?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i don't mind the arcana, it's what a holistic understanding's made of
(trilema) ben_vulpes: feel free to jot the rest down lol
(trilema) ben_vulpes: it should be doable to 'getpeers' from the nodes from which a trb gets a block and then attempt to traverse upstream, no?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: also excellent question
(trilema) ben_vulpes: idle curiosity, don't let it block important stuffs
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: what's the alert they're trying to send?

(trilema) ben_vulpes: no but no trinque miners run cutting edge stuff only
(trilema) ben_vulpes: in re "nobody over there even does anything"?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: neato asciilifeform, i will get this into rotation
(trilema) ben_vulpes: heh hadn't gotten to "who hears tx first", that'll need umpteen nodes to do properly unless i misread the situation.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: all americans have is this vague conviction that nothing is good, and that some things are less shite than others.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: well see that's your problem, you have standards and a breadth of experience and shit
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: it's an american cultural artifact ca. 2016; let us marvel that the scriptwriters were allowed to ship the scene where ed harris drags blondie into a shed by her hair
(trilema) ben_vulpes: dunno who'd watch ww for anything other than the rape, titties, and watching the robots suffer through endless reincarnations sort-of remembering things
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: oya, those are the worst scenes
(trilema) ben_vulpes: hanbot: alas
(trilema) ben_vulpes: quite a bit of whorin and dyin
(trilema) ben_vulpes: yeah dems
(trilema) ben_vulpes: a quick skim of something purporting to be a script for ep1 suggests they don't show up in episode one!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: you didn't even like the whores?!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: going to watch westworld instead of the statham crap anytime soon?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: anyways, the man stands on his own feet.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: it's real gay
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: after four years of constant close collaboration we're pretty hot swappable
(trilema) ben_vulpes: clearly you staple them together from human parts one finds at walmart
(trilema) ben_vulpes: runs a tight ship, i'm proud to serve with the man.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: aye, that's him
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: what is this cringe?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ohai veen
(trilema) ben_vulpes: preserve hollywood's eroding margins! outlaw basic arithmetic!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: a website can be illegal, dontcha know.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: > illegal sites
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mhm
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and because high-profile politician, natural causes rule themselves out?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: so because it happened in the states the states did it?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: how's it so terribly obvious that this is a western nailgun job?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i wouldn't know where to start with the estimate
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and while it is sad that gcaptain is now descended to reuters rebroadcaster, it is also amusing that the ngo's ferrying migs into the eu have finally caught widespread attention: http://archive.is/BQtrf

(trilema) ben_vulpes: i didn't read it for the price, but to see how wide of the mark the wsj has drifted. it's an honest depiction of reality in that /it was published/, and depicts the process and its results.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: why watch snuff, isis execution videos, read camwho blogs? for entertainment
(trilema) ben_vulpes: for the joy of seeing the wsj write about something without citing any relevant papers!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: now why would i do that?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: wall street urinal
(trilema) ben_vulpes: oh it's from blogs.*.com

(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: pretty sure i'm running with malleus
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: now that you mention it
