mircea_popescu: !!up oroborous
deedbot: oroborous voiced for 30 minutes.
shinohai: Oh buenas dias mircea_popescu
oroborous: mircea_popescu: buy why comic sans tho'?
mircea_popescu: cuz your system sucks.
oroborous: oh yeah, you got me with this one
mircea_popescu: as opposed to which one lol.
mircea_popescu is a getter.
mircea_popescu: in other lulz : "gedit" (gnome lulz-nano) SIMPLY CRASHES if fed a 60kb no-spaces textfile.
asciilifeform: lol, 'only a terrorist would have a 80kB without newline' ?
mircea_popescu: i have nfi.
mircea_popescu: THEY HAVE UTF SUPPORT THO!!!
mircea_popescu: how the fuck exactly ? you're telling me there's no 80kb unicode glyph for some (white priviledge!!!) reason ?
asciilifeform: from where did mircea_popescu even get a gnomiferous box..? will assume he took it off a dead nazi
mircea_popescu: in other such lulz, had a team of professionals (3 sorry looking kids) from super-duper local isp do a bunch of cable laying. leaving aside that the job included climbing a 3 story bare metal outside ladder to get to the roof, which was a first for all of 'em, the place itself... well, the girls were dressed, exceptionally, but i only realised by and by that there's a lot of shit such as ball gags laying about, bullwhips hang
mircea_popescu: ing from curtain rods, all sorts and manner of paraphenailia which, if regarded by neutral eyes cast a strange shadow on ortdinary items (why is there a pile of xl condom packs RIGHT NEXT TO rubbing alcohol and what is that pointy thing?!?!?).
mircea_popescu: i expect they called in sick and spent the rest of the day in a lavatory.
asciilifeform: sat dish?
asciilifeform: (else why roof, seems odd)
mircea_popescu: well cuz that's what i needed!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform anyway, note it's 60kb not 80kb. less than 64!
asciilifeform: betcha it has hardcoded 1kB lines or somesuch.
mircea_popescu: or 13370 bits, why not.
asciilifeform: in other vulnburnlulz, http://archive.is/chyRF
asciilifeform: ^ 'armory' seekrit-splitter leaks keybits
asciilifeform: quite deliberately.
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, CAN YOU FUCKING BELIEVE phuctor is still on ?
mircea_popescu: apparently they are so loath it leaves perfectly willing to pay for hosting even.
mircea_popescu: "This is precisely what Armory’s implementation breaks, by rolling deterministic and chained coefficients, where the first coefficient is deterministically derived from the secret, and the subsequent ones are derived successively from one another."
mircea_popescu: HE DIDNT EVEN SALT
mircea_popescu: bonus points for a text full of "I" as FUCKING IF he's me, except of course we don't get to even see the fucktard's fucking name aywhere.
mircea_popescu: fucking intolerable shitheads. then he wonders why everything he makes is broken.
mircea_popescu: in other news, the "action movie" phenomenon of the 70s/early 80s is a very interesting epiphenomenon of the maga.
mircea_popescu: the ~only function of those flicks was to provide rage escapism for adult blue collar males who were aware of the mafia through daily interaction, but liked to imagine some kind of separation, "if those scumbags that are totally not my betters ever raped my wife and daughter, why i... i... i'd totally slyvester seagall all over them!"
mircea_popescu: they went away not because "mafia went away" and other giulaini nonsense -- but because the blue collar adult male went away.
mod6: aha.

mircea_popescu: incidentally, speaking of the whole http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-22#1588696 http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-07#1711102 etc : did anyone ever come up with a formal functional expression of Dirac's delta ?
a111: Logged on 2016-12-22 23:43 asciilifeform: 'AI risk is string theory for computer programmers. It's fun to think about, interesting, and completely inaccessible to experiment given our current technology. You can build crystal palaces of thought, working from first principles, then climb up inside them and pull the ladder up behind you.'
a111: Logged on 2017-09-07 03:07 asciilifeform: s clearly an area of tremendous importance. In fact, I had to switch to an engineering department to work on it, because physics departments are broke and enamoured with ex-string theorist well-fare projects like topological insulators....'
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> they went away not because "mafia went away" and other giulaini nonsense -- but because the blue collar adult male went away. << AHA, amazing how kids who grew up on the "action movie" failed to want to become either mafia dude or blue collar dude.
mircea_popescu: i dun think it has anything to do with anything other than credit.
mircea_popescu: blue collar dude bought a house if he scrounged and saved for one.
mircea_popescu: his kid -- CC "applications" in mail since 16yo.
mircea_popescu: then the question readily become "how much free shit would it be fair for the $peoplesendingmeenvelopes to send me on a yearly basis"
mircea_popescu: the "living wage" is the necessary result of the bright banking idea of "mail everyone credit cards -- itis good for business!"
mircea_popescu: sure, in the sense burning down house is good for heat.
mircea_popescu: if i ran the bank supervisor would have pulled licenses of anyone engaging in that shit.
mircea_popescu: bulk unsolicited credit offers -> you go to jail!
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: blue collar implies, capable of working
BingoBoingo: his kids can only do old womanly sit-work
mircea_popescu: worse than that : living in a world in which work exists.
mircea_popescu: work hasn't actually existed in 20 years, there's what we do, and redditard can't to anyway, and otherwise redditarding, which is entirely undistinguishable from simply being monkey in zoo.
mircea_popescu: he too, the monkey in zoo, "maintains social relations" such as befit a monkey in a zoo, and delouses self and friends, and does other uu-aa things which, importantly, are topologically insulated from the actual world through something known as the cage bars.
BingoBoingo wonders if irl redditings will eventually get diclorvos strips placed as in https://www.amazon.com/Mosquito-Trap-N-Kill-MADE-IN-USA/dp/B06Y4CSQBS
mircea_popescu: i thought it's getting banned.
BingoBoingo: Other shit's getting banned. Apparently it's getting a new life because bedbugs
mircea_popescu: iirc presence in water was somewhat related to prevalence of the supposed adhd disease
BingoBoingo: Apparently now instead of bedding in trash bag and then dumpster when infested, new fad is into trash bag with diclorvos strip and then reuse bedding
BingoBoingo: Now, KKKalifornia is debating a malathion ban which would mean no more produce in USA supermarket ever
BingoBoingo: Butt apparently delousings as social activity is where the dirty antifa hippies are pushing everyone
BingoBoingo: Well, antifa, airbnb, and gabriel_laddel-ites
mircea_popescu: maybe schistosomiasis soon.
mircea_popescu: (lulzy thing re that helminth : it was always common in egypt ; because it induces bloody urination it was actually socially-reinterpreted by the same retarded pantsuits who built pyramids as "rite of passage" for boys ie hurray, menstruation too!
mircea_popescu: but then the victorious socialism came by, started building a world of the future without such pests. this was to be accomplished through forced injection of wonder drugs, that did not work. the injecting however left egypt the highest hepatitis C place in the world, and by far. it's actually epidemiologically traceable to the victorious socialism campaigns, by geographic area and social groups.)
BingoBoingo: lol, kinda curious what the beetus epidemic is going to do to US hep c rates
mircea_popescu: well unlike 1960s nader, 2010s obama has cheap disposable needles
mircea_popescu: in other vaguely related lulz : the "disability weight" is a nonsensical scalar measure invented by the kanzure type idiots who deal in "DALY" ie "societal measures of health" and such bullshit. they publish lousy fanfic with some regularity, which can be amusing. for instance, as per the 2004 official truth, blindness was the 2nd most serious problem, (after alzheimer's, ahead of schizophrenia, being the top 3) with a nonsen
mircea_popescu: sical factor of "0.594". the 2010 edition of the "same" list of masturbatory products dropped it to 0.195, because, get this, "we changed our fanfic to be measure of health rather than welfare and blind person is not ill"
mircea_popescu: which... you know ?
mircea_popescu: meanwhile lower back pain went from 0.06 to 0.37 because HEY!!! all things must be done by for and through the office drone! WHO COULD DISPUTE THIS WORLDVIEW!
mircea_popescu: there's an endless ocean of lolcow tears, out there. all sorts of these groups by now, "doing things" orally.
mircea_popescu: (the sponsors of this wank are the gates fambly. generally you'll find each wankfest has its own ex-corporate dumbasses behind it)
BingoBoingo: Well, makes sense for the gates fambly for the Buffet reason of preventing future competing gates famblys
mircea_popescu: i'm not sure it has anything baked in above and beyond, "here's a billion we don't know what to do with, because we won it at the social mobility lottery, can anyone halp ?" resulting in an ad-hoc, informally specified, poorly directed and utterly undesigned effort to produce words and "numbers" in exchange for expense accounts.
mircea_popescu: for the same money this set of microscopic ant guys processing a drop of mango pulp on my counter are doing research at my behest.
mircea_popescu: anyway, there is some acturial basis for it, well buried under the fanfic. much like there's a thin sliver of actual geological survey buried under the "global warming" wank.
BingoBoingo: But think how many other famblys trying to play social mobility lottery bet big on blind only to see the Gates change the drawing rules on them
BingoBoingo: In same way ants doing mango research are there for fna's entertainment
mircea_popescu: anyway, gives the lancet something to print.
mircea_popescu: (if you're in any way related to "teh industry" of "science" you're aware how much of a fucking problem content generation is / was)
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo speaking of fna, lulz of all time : i have a wall mounted wide screen. as you can imagine, it is THE hottest bit of real estate as far as gecko is concerned (very safe, nice and warm at night, plenty of hidey places, a villa!)
mircea_popescu: now, as it happens a wall mounted screen will be watched mostly in the early evening. as it also happens, fna will sleep during day, wake up for business in the early evening.
mircea_popescu: consequently this poor animal has a bunch of people STALKING HIM, watching his house at gecko's 7-8am. just as he's getting ready to try and beat the god damned traffic to work!
mircea_popescu: so he'd come out, run 10-20 cm, discover all these eyes on him, turnabout run back in, wait a little, try again...
BingoBoingo: OH HOW CRUEL BIPEDS ARE!
mircea_popescu: and in other lulz, "United States v. 11 1/4 Dozen Packages of Articles Labeled in Part Mrs. Moffat’s Shoo-Fly Powders for Drunkenness" is a genuine case citation, early in rem litigation in new york.
BingoBoingo still pissed that "People of the State of Illinois" so rarely includes him in making decisions on who to versus
BingoBoingo would threaten ot stahp paying taxes, but too lol-te
BingoBoingo may end up netting a profit on most recent speeding ticket
BingoBoingo: But that depends on the State's continued demonstrations of bad faith in discovery continuing to generate tort fuel

mircea_popescu: sooo are we sticking to pre schwartz notions of "physicists are talking nonsense" ?
mircea_popescu: seems to me it's the job of math people to produce all needed schwartzen and their shortcoming when they fail to do so.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you are aware "consensus" among the math tribe was that dirac & friends are talking nonsense ?
asciilifeform: no, but unsurprised
