10:42 mircea_popescu the crazy batshit they have to argue. "oh, ethereum is rapemeat but totally worth the money also ethereum never happened also ethereum has nothing to do with the enthusiams, also black chix code, also that doesn't matter, also"
10:48 asciilifeform hey, whole point was 'parallel taiwanization' of bitcoin -- normalize tx reversion, 'buy-only' exchanges with periodic margin call sheepshave, etc
10:49 mircea_popescu yeah, and it worked oh so well lmao
10:50 mircea_popescu mit selling me its ips to pay for the ethereum.
10:50 mircea_popescu vorwarts, soviets@
10:50 asciilifeform would mircea_popescu actually buy ips ? aint that rather like buying land in manhattan
10:50 mircea_popescu turns out, when you attempt to taiwanize your master, your master instead taiwanizes you.
10:51 asciilifeform ( or like those legendary trained horses, bought from gypsy, that walk back... )
10:51 mircea_popescu asciilifeform it's complicated.
10:51 mircea_popescu asciilifeform you know, back in the day i used to specifically buy "trained whore", "will run back". they... never did.
10:52 mircea_popescu nothing easier than to overestimate the strength of a length of chain. kinda what compsec turns out to be all about all the time also.
10:52 asciilifeform hey, even double agents sometimes 'up valence' and triple
10:53 mircea_popescu in practice, there's no such thing as a disloyal woman. just women who've not yet met anyone worth bothering with in the sea of schmucks.
10:53 mircea_popescu granted, ips are slightly different. but not THAT different.
10:54 asciilifeform i still wonder why ( afaik ! ) there has not been yet an open schism, where usg: 'ip X belongs to Y' but elsewhere 'no, Z'
10:55 mircea_popescu ~because there's still agreement that that'll cost too much.
10:56 asciilifeform soo possibly like the infamous 'nonmilitarization of antarctica' treaties
10:56 mircea_popescu this agreement, much like the http://trilema.com/2014/la-florida-and-other-places/#selection-111.0-117.724 thirld world head roach, are pretty much the fumes on which the usg runs today
10:56 mircea_popescu wringing it away is worth it in and of itself, that's how you destroy the crown.
10:57 mircea_popescu keep facing it with the easy money now dilemma. they ALWAYS make the same choice, which simplifies the management of their rape significantly.
10:58 mircea_popescu all this bakes in the momentary happenstance that the chinese've not yet run out of things to do. once that happens... "cost is no object" as they say. so there's an absolute cap on it anyway.
11:03 asciilifeform re ips -- microshit still gets what it wants 100% of the time, to date, when demands 'sinkhole this botnet c&c ip'
11:03 mircea_popescu so far
11:03 asciilifeform but usually the conversation is re a dozen or two, rather than blocks
11:04 mircea_popescu the way net works in china, there's no owner for a bunch of blocks, practically.
11:04 asciilifeform the 'sinkhole south america, it is a terrorist continent full of mircea_popescus' axe time moment has not afaik yet come.
11:05 mircea_popescu the whole "private net" a campus is prolly the way of the future. "this is the US 4.4.4.4. argentina got a diff one"
11:05 asciilifeform north kr is pioneer here
11:05 mircea_popescu right.
11:05 mircea_popescu but anyway -- state dun just go away because we fucked their dumbass ipv6. they'll just you know, same shit, different node.
11:06 asciilifeform the interesting q is why it has not yet happened.
11:06 mircea_popescu zombie gotta has teh braaaainzzz
11:06 mircea_popescu asciilifeform cuz stiff and shambling. but expect the shitty isps to start "experimenting" with it
11:06 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: already long time 'experimented', with zapping incoming ports etc
11:06 asciilifeform but always halfhearted
11:07 asciilifeform because, at least as traditionally understood, every isp knows that it is really warez that keeps it alive
11:07 mircea_popescu a drepper shall be born.
11:07 asciilifeform ( or else nobody would shell out for massive bandwidth )
11:07 mircea_popescu by now, it's the govt that keeps alive both isp and otakus using them.
11:07 mircea_popescu so ~moot.
11:08 mircea_popescu if today people started dropping cable subscription en masse, the last mile isps would petition congress and it'd become illegal to do, like electricity.
11:08 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: already happened. they simply jacked the price.
11:08 asciilifeform ( of both ! )
11:09 mircea_popescu heh
11:09 mircea_popescu that's because there's no inflation, happens naturally.
11:22 asciilifeform oblig 'internet of the future' >> http://www.loper-os.org/?p=208
11:23 asciilifeform it was never clear to me why that particular frog is being boiled as slowly as it is.
11:23 mircea_popescu you drastically overestimate the ability of the enemy, and this appears to you as slowness. think : all they could do, ALL they could do to anoint the obama dork was ows.
11:23 mircea_popescu did that look to you like it's capable of boiling frogs any faster ?
11:24 mircea_popescu and it also degrades, pantsuit hilarity got no ows of her own.
11:24 asciilifeform tru
11:25 mircea_popescu all she got was a buncha black hos giving her a lap dance, once.
11:25 mircea_popescu that's basically bottle service, can have any day of the week
11:35 mircea_popescu and speaking of this, it's not JUST ows. the "gamergate" bs is also exactly the same thing -- "leaderless" because the actual leadership is both too pussyfied to actually step in front of the troops, and too fucking stupid to even sort out ideological difficulties and so make such stepping theoretically meaningful.
11:36 mircea_popescu meanwhile the imbecile redditard, who we shall name isis agora fuckhead for no apparent reason except obviously why, ACTUALLY BELIEVEs that it's all the rage and highly fashionable to be part of leaderless "spontaneous movements".
11:37 asciilifeform this might be attributing too much reasoned thought to the fungal mass
11:37 mircea_popescu any half drunk habitual rapist "soldier" throughout history could have summoned enoujgh sense, in the depths of his stupor, adding up five moments of clarity worth ten minutes dispersed over six weeks to figure out that "hey, the fact our so called army has nobody marching in front speaks poorly of its chances or human quality"
11:37 asciilifeform is 'belief' actually involved, or just smooth musculature movement ?
11:38 mircea_popescu yet these "measures of all things" exemplars of pure humanity, that honestly believe their heads are capable of any lifting, if they "just had the facts" hurr durr lol lol snort, nevertheless can't see far enough ahead to realise they're "leaderless" because their leaders are out and out bullshit, and for no other reason.
11:38 asciilifeform and incidentally idiot peasants routinely joined up with 'movements' with ~0 leadership, got slaughtered
11:38 mircea_popescu asciilifeform da fuck even knows.
11:38 mircea_popescu asciilifeform so they did, yes. OURDEMOCRACY is older than calvin.

11:40 mircea_popescu ro chick, secret service general no less, spent a decade organizing these "leaderless" bullshits in ro.
11:41 asciilifeform https://archive.is/35PKK claims '59106 ron' per y.
11:42 asciilifeform that's, what, 500bux ?
11:42 asciilifeform mega-general
11:42 mircea_popescu about 20k
11:42 asciilifeform i could see 20k for general of... mali
11:42 asciilifeform but ro ?
11:42 mircea_popescu what can i tell you. socialist state is poor and hopeless.
11:43 * asciilifeform reconsiders changing professions to general of ro !!1111
11:43 mircea_popescu why ?
11:43 asciilifeform pay's shite
11:43 mircea_popescu o, that's your criteria ?
11:43 asciilifeform ( there was a 1990s gag shirt -- 'have you RECONSIDERED a career in computer programming' )
11:45 asciilifeform phunphakt : american general makes not so much moar, see, e.g,. http://www.militaryfactory.com/military_pay_scale.asp
11:46 mircea_popescu unlike the us general, ro chick made plenty.
11:46 mircea_popescu i'd guess about 3-5mn during her tenure.
11:46 asciilifeform carl force - style ?
11:50 asciilifeform ( probably the norm in usa also, otherwise it is difficult to explain why a colonel is paid ~same as a programmer )
11:53 mircea_popescu just about. who doesn't want to be friends with a hot blondy with brains ?
11:54 mircea_popescu she can have whatever she wants, why the hell not. who else ? who'd you be saving it for, your own kids ?
11:54 mircea_popescu meritocracy, let the kids starve.
11:55 asciilifeform lolsaving
11:55 asciilifeform they still have that o're there don't they.
11:56 mircea_popescu well, here used in the general sense, "if elena asks for a car and you don't give it to her, you're saving it. wtf you;'re saving it for ?"
11:56 mircea_popescu general sense lol. epic.
11:57 asciilifeform lol this is like that Framedragger chix
11:57 asciilifeform i am unaware of why this one is so great.
11:58 mircea_popescu whatever, blondy.
11:58 asciilifeform i'd rather roll up the money an' smoke it.
11:58 mircea_popescu really ?
11:58 asciilifeform theoretically.
11:58 mircea_popescu i suppose this'd be why you dun have a network then.
11:58 asciilifeform perhaps.
11:59 mircea_popescu you understand that if you smoke it you're gifting it to mugurel yes ?
11:59 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: right, which is why i am not sitting here and smoking benjies
12:00 asciilifeform but ~in preference~ to giving it to some rando quasihuman
12:00 asciilifeform -- would.
12:00 mircea_popescu what sense does that make ? the central bank is just a faceless distillate of all the population.
12:00 mircea_popescu this one at least understands she's supposed to be naked.
12:00 asciilifeform oh did she ?
12:00 mircea_popescu well, hence all the bathing suit pix
12:01 asciilifeform i didn't see any naked ones. but then again did not dig.
12:01 mircea_popescu show me hilarity's. (no, not from now, from back when she didn't understand but should have understood.)
12:03 asciilifeform these are prolly kept next to the launch codes and the rsa pill, lol.
12:03 mircea_popescu heh
12:04 mircea_popescu point being : the "i'd give it to the soviet comissar rather than to this woman" preference ain't supported.
12:04 asciilifeform point was rather ' i can't see diff b/w here and commissar, same faceless face '
12:04 asciilifeform *her
12:04 mircea_popescu but this one at least understands (even if only spottily applies) that she's supposed to be naked. the other ones generally do not. this one is thereby above average and therefore the preference.
12:05 * asciilifeform can picture.
12:05 mircea_popescu as far as the theory goes, at least. in practice, the preference was very much there, she was quite popular in the basescu years.
12:05 mircea_popescu i dunno anyone who'd turn down her rsvp.
12:06 asciilifeform reminds me of that time asciilifeform went to a party and it was full of nsa colonels
12:06 asciilifeform ( 0 chix )
12:07 asciilifeform mega-snoar
12:20 mircea_popescu honestly, i don't recall ever going to a good party states-side.
12:21 mircea_popescu then again, i wasn't on the west coast ; nor do i have much patience for the flip flop and smoked out crowd.
12:23 * asciilifeform not on west coast, and also does not
12:28 mircea_popescu course our scoring criteria may diverge.
12:29 mircea_popescu as far as i'm concerned, good party = no less than 60 females per 100, no loser/dork males present, good music not too loudly and some public fucking.
12:29 mircea_popescu i think that about covers it.
12:30 mircea_popescu oh, and good music = nothing after 2000, no electronica etc crapolade, none of the boy band nkotb idiocy, no faggots (michael, bowie, whatever nonsense with hats).
12:30 mircea_popescu that also should just about cover it.

20:29 asciilifeform pretty lulzy, mircea_popescu rides in ~same auto as asciilifeform even nao, runs on ~same batteries..
20:29 asciilifeform such economy !
20:29 mircea_popescu hey, i got a pool >D
20:29 asciilifeform buncha folx even here have these. just not me
20:29 mircea_popescu so THERE!!!
20:29 asciilifeform i also dun have a zoo!11
20:30 mircea_popescu sometimes i wonder what you're thinking, i'm connecting from a different dimension or what,.
20:30 asciilifeform almost.
20:30 mircea_popescu of course it still gets wet when it rains, and sandwiches still fall butter face down
20:30 mircea_popescu and if you feel like spending a quarter mil or we on the generators you do and if oyu don't you don't.
20:31 asciilifeform ah hm often i forget the sheer expense of getting products of industry in bananilandia
20:31 mircea_popescu nah, it's about what a serious setup costs. and if you do, might as well get serious.
20:32 asciilifeform incidentally do they have piped gas in cr ?
20:32 mircea_popescu nope.
20:32 mircea_popescu chicks love teh electric stove tho.
20:32 asciilifeform ( over here, piped gas gensets are quite common )
20:32 mircea_popescu gas was... iffier.
20:32 mircea_popescu asciilifeform ah yes, that'd be much easier. but no gas here, and im not gonna bury a gpl tank (bad soil, hillside).
20:32 asciilifeform yeah these are terrible, i disrecommend
20:33 * asciilifeform worked in a place that had one
20:33 mircea_popescu whereas gasoline generator only really works well as a 50kw+ item
20:33 asciilifeform <10kW actually
20:33 asciilifeform they dun scale so well.
20:33 asciilifeform and light fraction dun keep well.
20:33 mircea_popescu no, they do. the tiny shits suck. but the 10-20-50hp ones work well enough.
20:33 asciilifeform ( hence why folx use diesel )
20:33 asciilifeform hm
20:33 mircea_popescu tiny shits are 2 stoke half the time.
20:34 mircea_popescu asciilifeform oh wait, we were talking at cross purposes. yes the gas ones are small.
20:34 asciilifeform ~diesel~ works well as >50kW.
20:34 mircea_popescu right. that's what i mean.
20:37 mircea_popescu i suppose i could break down and put in... SOLAR PANELS. dun dun dun
20:38 asciilifeform probably not even worst possible idea
20:38 mircea_popescu it's VERY sunny here.
20:38 asciilifeform ( see if you can score those eternal NiFe cells to go with'em... )
20:39 mircea_popescu that's what i was thinking, rather than get a diesel, get a very large iron cell set instead.
20:39 asciilifeform apparently commercially available finally. after 100 yr pause.
20:39 asciilifeform http://www.bimblesolar.com/batteries/nifebatteries << randomly picked vendor
20:39 mircea_popescu more a matter of space. what's a cubic meter get me in terms of mj ?
20:41 asciilifeform 'Encell ENC30012' 300Ah 12v ( i.e. 30 Ah 120v supposing ideal inverter... ) lasts, purportedly, 11,000 cycles, 48cm x 48cm x 61 cm.
20:41 mircea_popescu !~calc 300 * 3600 / .48 / .48 / .61
20:41 jhvh1 mircea_popescu: 300 * 3600 / .48 / .48 / .61 = 7684426.229508197
20:42 mircea_popescu so like 7.5mj ? that's not even horrible.
20:42 asciilifeform https://archive.is/dmpaz << where found the latter.
20:42 mircea_popescu esp if one gets a proper set rather than consumer prepackaged bs.
20:42 asciilifeform they're considerably less dense than lithium but last for century rather than couplayears
20:42 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: afaik there is no konsoomer nife. there are only industrial.
20:42 asciilifeform hence the prices.
20:43 mircea_popescu i could readily spare 6-10 m3. which...
20:43 mircea_popescu maybe.
20:43 asciilifeform they are apparently catching on at telcos etc
20:46 asciilifeform this plus a dish antenna or two and you could live on mars...
20:46 mircea_popescu i already have those
20:46 asciilifeform then short work neh.
20:46 mircea_popescu not too much no.
20:46 asciilifeform the hilltop tower house described in article seems ideal : no shades
20:47 mircea_popescu a little iffy because of landslide potential.
20:47 asciilifeform most photopanel aficionados would cream pants, just reading about it.
20:47 mircea_popescu asciilifeform i wasn't even rthinking getting the panels too. just get batteries, charge from network
20:47 asciilifeform hey nobody gets to escape all forces of nature. ( usa is good illustration of this : all of the parts with desirable weather, have some periodic cataclysm, earthquake or flood, pick.. )
20:47 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: this'd work pretty well
20:48 mircea_popescu i expect ya
20:48 asciilifeform telco-style. all of the gear is off-the-shelf
20:48 asciilifeform in fact even asciilifeform has most of it right here.
20:48 asciilifeform ( i still use bad ol' Pb cells, tho. )
20:48 mircea_popescu you know, "Even asciilifeform " dun work so well here, you're basically living on a satellite as far as most kitchens are concerned.
20:49 asciilifeform lolmost of my gear came from.. scrapyards
20:49 asciilifeform but sure.
20:49 * asciilifeform bbl, alcohol
