08:41 mircea_popescu asciilifeform btw the mystery of the inverter is solved : the thing has about 21kw worth of lead-acid cells, capable of powering the output at nominal draw for half an hour or twenty minutes or something.
08:41 mircea_popescu ie, if your engine runs out you have a moment to do something. like add more gas or w/e
08:41 jurov til mircea_popescu draws 21 kW
08:42 mircea_popescu jurov it's rated for 40ish actually ; and you gotta understand inductive loads.
08:44 jurov the battery is then about 40 kW*0.5 h = 20 kWh . you have 20kWh worth of lead cells at home?
08:44 jurov care to snap a pic?
08:47 jurov It's about a full cabinet, about a metric ton
08:47 mircea_popescu i'm busy an' it's raining, just try to imagine 40 truck batteries stacked or something.
08:48 mircea_popescu and yes, thing has its own wheels and sits outside, not indoor unit.
08:48 mircea_popescu who the fuck keeps a generator indoors.

08:48 jurov ok, i was talking about batteries
08:48 mircea_popescu for one thing, you'll die.
08:49 mircea_popescu it's inside somewhere, i've never seen them.
08:49 jurov oh, in bsas no problem to keep batteries outdoors, too

11:58 asciilifeform l0l
12:03 asciilifeform incidentally, how come mircea_popescu dislikes 'ndranghetta ? it's orcs doing healthy virile orc stuff, no ?
12:03 asciilifeform certainly no 'pencildick' academics there..
12:04 mircea_popescu i don't dislike IT.
12:04 mircea_popescu nevertheless, a streetwalker is a streetwalker whether she fucks bums or healthy virile orcs.
12:04 asciilifeform hm?
12:04 mircea_popescu in this case, the usg took it in the ass. and the problem with whoredom is that oyu NEVER get to charge more than the least you ever charged.
12:04 mircea_popescu consequently...
12:05 mircea_popescu that "careful about what they don't tell you when they give you those papers to sign" cuts both ways. what the calabrese didn't tell the feds when they gave the feds those papers to sign was
12:05 asciilifeform how does this differ from when 'scientology' infiltrated fbi and burned all files pertaining to itself (1980s) ?
12:05 mircea_popescu that now the feds are somewhere between uganda and ethiopia as far as legal power is concerned.
12:06 mircea_popescu why does it have to differ ?
12:06 asciilifeform afaik it doesn't differ.
12:06 mircea_popescu aite.
12:06 asciilifeform but pointing out that this kind of thing is old news.
12:07 mircea_popescu the concept of "old news" is not defined in this space.
12:07 asciilifeform and that it only pertains to the crust of usg, not the molten iron core.
12:07 mircea_popescu i've not even read that last line, for the record.
12:07 asciilifeform l0l
12:08 mircea_popescu sorry, what am i to do. you're a pretty reasonable chap with the nutty habit of spitting out 5/0=0!!1 5/0 = 0!!! at intervals.

12:08 mircea_popescu thanks god it's that simple.
12:09 asciilifeform if you can find me how aes leaks key bits, or the spec document for 'Joseki' cipher, i'll wake up permanently.
12:09 asciilifeform i promise.

12:13 mircea_popescu nonsense.
12:14 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: not that one either.
12:14 asciilifeform this is a quasi-mythical speech that was never made public.
12:15 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 117150 @ 0.0005707 = 66.8575 BTC [+] {3}
12:15 mircea_popescu they're guarded by asciilifeform's unknown sons in a mausoleum on buyan, along with asciilifeform's own handmade copy of the dead sea manuscripts and still shots from his days as a fireman/pornstar.
12:15 * asciilifeform falls down
12:15 mircea_popescu the continued secrecy involving all this proves in order that asciilifeform has sons, that buyan is a place and that he used to take it in the ass with the firehose.
12:16 * asciilifeform tries, futilely, to extract firehose
12:17 mircea_popescu other things that haven't been found include the electronic raisin nuclear cheesecake, and generally speaking all manner and definitions of unknown things as defined by the people not knowing them. because FUCKING NECESSARILY!
12:17 asciilifeform note that i did not say 'the pill for rsa' but a specific archival document that is referred to in 10,001 places in the open usg literature
12:17 asciilifeform but has never been leaked.
12:18 asciilifeform 'implementation of Joseki'
12:18 mircea_popescu right.
12:18 asciilifeform (go players don't panic, nothing to do with the game)
12:18 mircea_popescu o when is that thing ?
12:18 mircea_popescu next month ?
12:18 asciilifeform aha.
12:19 asciilifeform another example: official 'tempest' test specs.
12:20 asciilifeform (this is also a named document, and 10,001+ copies exist, every maker of electronic junk for usg has it, but it has never been made public afaik)
12:21 asciilifeform or the magic codez for the intel amt thing (or what, you think the nsa core is decorative ?! buyan?!)
12:21 asciilifeform or, or.
12:22 mircea_popescu how does this relate to the legal impotence of the usg henceforth is unclear, but w/e.
12:23 asciilifeform doesn't.
12:23 asciilifeform relates to the ~core~ vs ~crust~
12:23 mircea_popescu it's merely a question of incompetence, not of will.
12:23 asciilifeform wai wut how?
12:24 mircea_popescu you're roughly in the position of an inept anatomist who, from his failure to obtain answers to the questions that interest him through dissection, decides the dead animal on the table is still alive,
12:24 mircea_popescu and is actively keeping secrets from him.
12:24 asciilifeform he isn't even wrong, the bacteria ~are~ helping to 'keep the secrets' by eating the meat
12:24 asciilifeform which is, in an important way, still alive.
12:24 mircea_popescu he is wrong in that he, much like a child / animist, allocates his failure to outside intent.
12:24 BingoBoingo Just because cadeaver does not live does not mean it lacks life.
12:25 mircea_popescu this is a 3 yo thing.
12:25 asciilifeform if it were a fully static object, like a pile of bricks, anatomist's job would be unquestionably easier
12:25 mircea_popescu very much besides the point.
12:26 asciilifeform mircea_popescu is of course free do define my questions, such as 'do they have the rsa pill', as uninteresting. but i find this position too martian to fully grasp with my puny earthling brain.
12:26 mircea_popescu they do not have the "rsa pill". the block ciphers however as currently implemented are next to useless.
12:27 asciilifeform 'block cipher' was a pixie dust creation from day 1. relic from pre-scientific age of cryptoastrology. i think we had this thread..
12:27 mircea_popescu mk.
12:30 asciilifeform speaking of, any more curios in the block cipher mail ?
12:31 mircea_popescu nothing.
12:31 mircea_popescu idiot cloud moved on to whatever it is they do, probably something to do wit hgo now.
12:31 asciilifeform the more i look, the more clear to me that crypto is this radioactive wasteland where even birds no longer sing
12:31 mircea_popescu funny how little actually interests these people, they can so fluently become fascinated by random things.
12:32 mircea_popescu birds sing, yes, but they are cicadas.
12:32 asciilifeform gonna be a contest where i'm the only runner ?!

12:35 mircea_popescu "I hope, Comrade Stalin, that you will grant my request and reply to the Manturovsk District, Kursk Region, First Zasemsky Village Soviet, Ivan Philipovich Ivanov."
12:35 mircea_popescu that thing is such a delight.
12:39 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: the material is as plentiful as it is monotonous.
12:39 asciilifeform the engl translation is new to me, i had nfi that anyone gave a shit
12:39 mircea_popescu dude - kursk cattle doesn't even have a fucking name. ivan son of filip of the ivan's clan ? really ?
12:39 mircea_popescu aspires to be person with name, has name of "moo mooeski"
12:39 asciilifeform (lysenko's works, for instance, were never - afaik, to this day - translated)
12:40 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: these folks were not even a century out of chattel serfdom
12:40 mircea_popescu more like 50 years.
12:40 mircea_popescu sitting around discussing issues of ideology for the very simple reason that the bigger boys in the village kicked the schmuck out of the trough ?
12:40 asciilifeform and quite definitely '1st gen in shoes'
12:41 mircea_popescu fucking reddit through and through.
12:41 asciilifeform not quite.
12:41 mircea_popescu oh ?
12:42 asciilifeform my understanding is that 'this is allt here is, i am as human as every great man' thing was not yet developed.
12:42 asciilifeform *all there
12:42 mircea_popescu orly ? "comrade stalin" ?
12:42 asciilifeform the peasant bowed just as he bowed to the old lords.
12:42 mircea_popescu FIRST Zasemsky Village Soviet ? you know, two streets down from petersburg center ?
12:43 mircea_popescu this kid is not a peasant, anymore than a random engineer is redditard.
12:43 mircea_popescu this kid is the aspirational "staff propagandist of the Manturovsk District of the Young Communist League in the Kursk Region"
12:43 asciilifeform there ~was~ 'reddit' running around in 1918. people who ~actually~ thought that nobody needs engineers, any idiot can design a pile of bricks, nobody needs army officer, money, etc.
12:44 asciilifeform they were slaughtered.
12:44 mircea_popescu THIS kid is it.
12:44 asciilifeform which was a very reasonable thing to do
12:44 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: possibly
12:44 asciilifeform 1937 saw a good bit of 'it' cleaned up.
12:44 mircea_popescu in the FIRST soviet union.
12:44 mircea_popescu should be interesting to see what the 2nd does.
12:47 asciilifeform nobody cancelled, note, the bullshit:
12:48 asciilifeform i watched with my own eyes groups of 'national student leadership' whateverthefuck marching to audience with obama's reichsminister of whatever (or possibly the fuhrer himself)
12:48 mircea_popescu aha.
12:48 asciilifeform this kind of thing is part of the daily rhythm around here and is unremarkable.
12:48 mircea_popescu it's also novel.
12:48 asciilifeform how novel? 20th c. sop.
12:49 mircea_popescu to the degree the 1936 bs was novel, of course. from close enough and with enough myopia, it is "sop".
12:49 asciilifeform in that sense yes.
12:49 asciilifeform it is a specifically 20th c. plague.
12:49 asciilifeform mr mold, even, wrote 'i wish only to live to see the 20th c. end' and he meant this specifically.
12:52 mircea_popescu seems a safe enough expectation.
12:53 asciilifeform at least for folks watching from dirigibles at safe range.
12:54 mircea_popescu least for them.
