10:58 watchglass 103.36.92.112:8333 : Busy? (No answer in 20 sec.)
~ 7 hours 8 minutes ~
18:06 shinohai lol @ today's thread in #o with jurov and dc. Will s.mg produce anything besides blog posts on multicoloured blobs? Find out on the next episode ....
18:15 Apocalyptic shinohai, heh I was just reading the thread as well
18:16 Apocalyptic funny how dianna seems to imply the foundation funds should have been returned but it's ok that mpex kept coinbr funds
18:16 asciilifeform shinohai: i care what comes outta s.mg approx. same amt as i care whether that pyramid-shaped hotel in pyongyang (almost-ready in '90...) gets finished
18:21 trinque eh, by this chiseling nobody is left standing.
18:21 trinque and we're all welcome to the fate of the lonely drunk.
18:23 asciilifeform the drink is optional but sure
18:24 trinque there was an implicit entitlement to free labor in this "what did X publish"
18:24 trinque i.e. we all behaved as slaves
18:25 asciilifeform trinque: i read it as moar of a stab 'see , lamers, haven't even published since $year'
18:25 trinque I will wait until asciilifeform kindly posts what he will, and otherwise leave him to his work.
18:25 trinque time machine, he lacks.
18:26 trinque otherwise one can grunt about which is "last man" and which "ubermensch" and why aren't there more
18:28 asciilifeform trinque: asciilifeform's interest in 'who is lamer of the day' is quite minimal.
18:28 asciilifeform sorta wai i try not to participate in the threads on subj .
18:28 trinque sure, was mostly response to shinohai
18:28 asciilifeform a
18:28 trinque I've put my flamethrower down as well
18:32 shinohai For me, good 'ol hearty lampooning - I bear no ill will to participants of whatever cult.
~ 45 minutes ~
19:17 mats i dont think mp really means to steal from the next chair of tbf, he wants something and wants jurov to stew a bit
19:18 mats sucks for his clients though
~ 43 minutes ~
20:01 asciilifeform mats: near as i can tell, what he wants is this . and naturally he doesn't think of it as 'steal', thinks whole visible universe belongs to him .
20:01 snsabot Logged on 2020-03-25 17:23:22 asciilifeform: ftr i do not believe for a moment in 'mp is outta biz'. he's very much in biz, working double time to poison all of the remaining wells, set folx against one another, make sure the earth properly salted so that republic (the only kind possible -- the kind w/out mp, the kind 'with' is called a reich) is properly down, and his theses 'properly confirmed'
20:06 mats he used words like 'until' and 'freeze', i dont think thats fair
20:07 asciilifeform mats: i'm not aware of jurov owing mp anyffin for which to 'until'.
20:07 mats everybody in this thing and folks in the periphery like me, has an unhealthy relationship with hyperbole and drama
20:11 mats im not defending anyone's behavior, it is incredible to me anyone would burn their reputation in Bitcoin in a nondispute with someone who helped them (and of course helping themselves) make a lot of money together
20:11 asciilifeform mats: all i got is the public wank, but difficult to come to any conclusion but 'mpex turned into you-can-have-yer-coin-back-unless-i-dunlike-yerface item'
20:14 asciilifeform mats: people (esp. 'in tilt mode') are capable of some 'incredible' things. e.g. prisoners who nail own balls to the floor to protest.
20:15 mats sure, if mp had a problem with jurov checking out, he couldve said something instead of nursing a grudge and then blowing up when nobody knew he was upset until then
20:16 mats the comic nature of the whole situation is very worthy of couples counseling
20:18 mats like does mp just not care if nobody ever uses mpex again? got his fees so w/e? i find that hard to believe
20:19 asciilifeform mats: he wrapped up the pyramid when took mpoe private. after this (sole remaining product -- smg's, w/ no visible profit model) -- why would care if anyone uses mpex ?
20:20 asciilifeform as for why 'comical' method, seems that he has a fondness for 'kick the dog until it bites, then shoot as 'rabid'' method of getting rid of inconvenient people while keeping up face of 'principled'
20:20 asciilifeform it worked with e.g. kako (who in the end was driven into temptation to try and pilfer from liquidation fund, iirc)
20:21 mats kako had it coming, we've been over that
20:22 asciilifeform it didn't work w/ snsa, where asciilifeform sent all liquidated inventory where asked, much, i suspect, to mp's indignation
20:22 mats literally the only thing jurov did was check out, but in the meantime he kept up his responsibilities to tmsr
20:23 mats mp is more powerful with mpex than without, and more powerful when people trust that he will meet his contract obligations
20:23 asciilifeform mats: as i surmise, 'checked out' in his pov is 'deserter'
20:24 mats a deserter that didnt run away with treasury funds, kept ml and lxr up, and kept servicing clients who wanted to be part of mpex corps
20:24 mats and who knows what else, jurov was more useful to tmsr than i ever was
20:26 mats anyways thats all i got. sorry for polluting your chan
20:26 asciilifeform mats: he didn't say much re: jurov, but you can read all about how asciilifeform was (retroactively) ultimate saboteur of all time etc
20:26 asciilifeform on mp's www
20:28 asciilifeform in my pov, agreements w/ mp aint worth the electrons they're printed on .
20:28 snsabot Logged on 2019-11-08 20:38:32 asciilifeform: while the attempt to saddle asciilifeform w/ a debt-laden high-risk isp project, after failure of piz ( observe, in no way isp work is mentioned in orig charter, which concerned 'a series of strong, fully integrated cryptography products, ensuring customers absolute immunity from third party attempts to access their data or communications' ) , and in particular , the marketing work he demanded, is arguably likewise in direct co
20:32 mats i know how you feel about it, and maybe i'm a hopeless optimist but i still daydream tmsr under mp and all the rest of us who have contributed their time and money, can get back together one day in the future
20:32 asciilifeform right after 'beatles' get together, lol
20:32 asciilifeform with lennon.
20:34 asciilifeform mats: interesting historical parallel (you may think odd choice, but) to mp -- che guevara.
20:34 mats we still fundamentally share the same goals, even if some have been understandably discouraged from long years of service with relatively fewer wins in between
20:34 mats ok, i shouldnt speak for anyone else, but i am unchanged
20:35 asciilifeform mats: for my part i'm doing almost exactly same thing nao as in prev. n yrs.
20:35 asciilifeform but with 1 fewer maniac to struggle with daily and 'fuck you , disobedient peon' etc
20:36 mats i know, thank you, i could not hope to reproduce your efforts in a lifetime
20:36 mats i am still happy to pay for a year of phuctor upkeep, btw, send me the bill when youre ready
20:36 asciilifeform atm for instance writing docs to go with ~1k loc of proggy for publication
20:37 asciilifeform mats: the machine that it's to go on is actually plugged in already since i fetched it from uy. is hosting the logger atm.
20:38 asciilifeform mats: if you want to donate for upkeep, feel free to use the signed addr on my www. but it aint starving, i actually managed to fill ~90% of avail. amperage w/ paying subscribers.
20:38 mats like i said before its not charity. can you give me a number?
20:39 asciilifeform mats: if specifically for phuctor, let's talk again 1ce i put back in service .
20:39 * asciilifeform appreciates offer .
20:39 mats ok, ill be around
20:39 asciilifeform btw mats , there are rk's avail. if you happen to need .
20:39 asciilifeform 'apu1' also unsold .
20:40 asciilifeform err, apu3
