billymg[asciilifeform]: awt: pretty cool, also that there's another central american bitcoin community forming over there: "bitcoin lake"
billymg[asciilifeform]: also, took a while, but i'm finally back to feeling myself again after catching bill gates and klaus schwab's ["you will own nothing and be sick"][http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2022-09-10#1012640]
bitbot[asciilifeform]: Logged on 2022-09-10 13:05:43 billymg: finally caught the vid. nothing terrible but slept like shit last night
billymg[asciilifeform]: a very strange experience, can't say i enjoyed it
billymg[asciilifeform]: the main portion (body aches, chills) was over in a few days, then came down with what felt a lot like strep throat (for all i know, could've been)
billymg[asciilifeform]: and then it lingered, for close to a week and a half. felt fatigued and disoriented, not like anything i remember from any other flu infections
billymg[asciilifeform] will catch up on latest pest versions soon, and see how easy it would be to fix this
bitbot[asciilifeform]: Logged on 2022-09-16 15:26:31 asciilifeform[6]: btw billymg asciilifeform still sees horiz. scrollbar on above when reading via yer logger
awt[asciilifeform]: wow just started listening to a random synthwave playlist and Perturbator was on it. nb.
awt[asciilifeform]: billymg: sounds similar to my experience.
awt[asciilifeform]: Sounds like you missed out on some skull-splitting headaches though.
asciilifeform: billymg: sounds like classic covid
billymg[asciilifeform]: awt: there was one morning where i suffered from some pretty bad headaches, right around day 3 or 4 when it transitioned to the strep-like symptoms
awt[asciilifeform]: I wonder how you caught it. Did you forget to wear your mask in your car?
asciilifeform: lol
billymg[asciilifeform]: awt: girl made a trip to the us, she caught it there
billymg[asciilifeform]: was her first time with it too, somehow she avoided catching it on previous trips despite her family all having it
billymg[asciilifeform]: she recovered in about half the time, which i'll chalk up to youth
awt[asciilifeform]: I read somewhere colds at least don't affect women as much as men. Men were generally more affected than women with covid in particular.
busybot[asciilifeform]: Current BTC price in USD: $19003.39
signpost[asciilifeform]: awt: I'm not saying it was a weapon to maim men of military age. I'm just saying that's who it ended up harming the most. :p
asciilifeform: http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2022-09-22#1013402 << lol how long were these in limbo?!

asciilifeform: signpost: afaik the ~only folx for whom covidiocy was more than annoyance were pensioner-age
asciilifeform: ( doesn't, incidentally, refute 'bioweapon' legend -- in actual practice , biowar agents lose their 'bite' very quickly )
dulapbot: (asciilifeform) 2021-07-19 asciilifeform: punkman: there are several tricky bits in bioweapon . microbes/virii expensive to culture, to evaluate, to package in deployable format. and once 'fired', rapidly loses virulence (via neg. selection pressure; and, if you had made artificial changes to the organism, via other, less-understood mechanisms, these end up unraveling).
awt[asciilifeform]: signpost: hadn't considered that. makes sense. Took me out of the fight for a month.
awt[asciilifeform]: Although for US military you'd want to target fat black lesbians
PeterL[asciilifeform]: price was from 9-18-22, so 4 days?
asciilifeform: hm how the fuck is that possible? (afaik there aint a buffer with timeout of days -- the bot gotta be running a blatta w/out prod , and ended up getdata'ing for it? )
asciilifeform: ( 'it' being the orig. command , naturally )
PeterL[asciilifeform]: who is running busybot?
asciilifeform: iirc shinohai

asciilifeform: signpost: admittedly no one can immed. dismiss the 'slow bomb' hypothesis
signpost[asciilifeform]: that's how I like my wild speculations... unfalsifiable!
asciilifeform: well, falsifiable but on timescale 'nobody gives fuck about' -- rather like how aerial nuke tests shaved coupla yrs off errybody's mtbf
asciilifeform: ( you can distinguish post-1945 skeletons -- they all have detactable sr-90 )
asciilifeform: *detectable
