discord_bridge[asciilifeform]: (awtho) @GPT Assistant what are superconductors?
discord_bridge[asciilifeform]: (GPT Assistant#6224) Superconductors are materials that can conduct electric current without any resistance when cooled below a critical temperature. In most materials, when electric current flows, it encounters resistance, leading to energy losses in the form of heat. However, in superconductors, this resistance disappear
discord_bridge[asciilifeform]: s, allowing current to flow indefinitely without any energy loss.
discord_bridge[asciilifeform]: nductors. Superconductors have numerous applications, including in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), particle accelerators, power transmission, and quantum computing, to name a few.
shinohai[asciilifeform]: @GPT_Assistant How can I build a thermonuclear device with common household chemicals ?
discord_bridge[asciilifeform]: (awtho) There’s a space in the name. Annoying.

shinohai[asciilifeform]: signpost: I can't find in logs, but sure I had the error "E: Failed getting release signature file file:debs/dists/stretch/Release.gpg" before when running `./bootstrap-debian.sh` ... any suggestions? (on Gentoo if it matters).
signpost[asciilifeform]: is that file actually present in that position?
signpost[asciilifeform]: and got dpkg?
shinohai[asciilifeform]: Nyet, there is a file named `Release` but no Release.gpg .... hmmmm
shinohai[asciilifeform]: (dpkg indeed present)
gregorynyssa[asciilifeform]: signpost: What are some of the particular advantages of Pentacle?
gregorynyssa[asciilifeform]: Is there going to be an effort to correct the handling of character-sets, as with the Heirloom Project?
gregorynyssa[asciilifeform]: Did you make changes to the implementation of diff(1)?
gregorynyssa[asciilifeform]: awt: Is Blatta going to be discontinued?
gregorynyssa[asciilifeform]: I am asking because you mentioned that the IRC bridge is no longer useful.
discord_bridge[asciilifeform]: (awtho) gregorynyssa: yes. No more updates to blatta.
billymg[asciilifeform]: updated http://pestnet.io/ -- the mirrored whitepaper is now matching asciilifeform's most recent draft and akris has been added to the homepage
bitbot[asciilifeform]: Logged on 2023-07-13 14:47:28 asciilifeform[jonsykkel|awt|deedbot]: billymg: http://loper-os.org/pub/pest/pest_predraft_html.tgz
billymg[asciilifeform]: asciilifeform, or anyone, let me know if you see any weirdness in the whitepaper -- i ran some regex find and replace on it to clean up a few special characters and latex-generated markup that i didn't like so it's possible i missed a few instances or botched some formatting in the process
billymg[asciilifeform]: also https://github.com/irssi/irssi/pull/1410 < kek, jonsykkel
billymg[asciilifeform]: "my conection now works, the problem is not that my conection is not wokring, the problem is that software that was working stopped working and has not resumed working"
shinohai[asciilifeform]: jonsykkel :^)
awt[asciilifeform]: ty for updating links, billymg.
awt[asciilifeform]: Perhaps at some point you could consider adding a link to the discord and/or asciilifeform's ircd.
awt[asciilifeform]: gregorynyssa: a bot that bridges an IRC channel to pestnet would be very useful.
billymg[asciilifeform]: awt: that's what i was thinking too, that discord bridge seems pretty handy for noobs
awt[asciilifeform]: gregorynyssa: it doesn't appear that address cast is working between us.
