00:00 mircea_popescu but you're familiar enough with my thinking to be aware how dimly i view this proposition that kids should be encouraged to "guess" what "the words mean in context" rather than look it up
00:05 decimation ;;ud feminine
00:05 gribble http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=feminine | Feminine means "What pertains to a woman". There are no qualifications. Whatever a woman does is feminine, because they are a woman, and they are doing ...
00:07 mircea_popescu hehe well yeah, here's the problem : nobody;'s written the trilema dictionary yet, and the author itself feels unequal to the task of defining the feminine, which is why i passed above.
00:07 mircea_popescu which means you're quite stuck. but perhaps if you had a question or some statement that could be tested or something ?
00:07 mircea_popescu ie, more context of what you plan to use that definition for.
00:12 decimation I guess I was thinking about where the surveillance state fell on the urban-rural axis - it seems to me that it is ultra-urban (Roman). While it might not be able to process infinite information, what if the level of information it could process is 'good enough' to turn the entire world into Rome?
00:14 mircea_popescu i think this may be a flaw of modelling. consider this point : one of the ways nero got a bad reputation was through going out at night and assaulting random people in the street.
00:15 mircea_popescu this was predicated on them not knowing who he was, and furthermore, on him not knowing who they were.
00:15 mircea_popescu doesn't this much unknowing throw a hole in your rome model ?
00:16 mircea_popescu (he once or twice got beat up pretty bad on account of it, too)
00:18 BingoBoingo Well in contrast Julius spent months in pirate captivity threatening them with crucifiction and managed to live to see his ransom arrive so he could carry out the threat
00:20 mircea_popescu lol
00:20 mircea_popescu for that matter, rome did not have income tax, or consumption tax. it had a capitation, and some trade licensing fees.
00:21 decimation Yeah I do see how that throws a wrench in the model. Here's a real-world example: http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/philg/2014/08/09/obama-and-new-england-aviation-businesses-start-their-vacation/ << greenspun details how Obama travels with an enormous entourage, which usg can't afford - this fact doesn't occur to anyone 'in the loop'
00:21 assbot Philip Greenspun's Weblog » Obama and New England aviation businesses start their vacation
00:21 mircea_popescu i have no idea why people keep thinking of it in terms of a sort of older us without tablets. it's so reactionary in fact it'd put medieval england to shame.
00:21 mircea_popescu decimation the point is valid, and people with a clue ocasionaly make it
00:21 BingoBoingo Julius Ceasar would make the redditard's case for waiting until the time comes, if only they knew of him
00:21 mircea_popescu (such as, the worst thing a contemporary president can do for a disaster area ? travel there.)
00:22 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo oh but i am aware. and the reason i wake up so chipper & cheerful i nthe mornings is quite a large pile of this, where the oppressed have the key to their freedom in their hand and somehow omitted to going to school the day its use was taught.
00:22 decimation the guys 'in the loop' with all of this supposed knowledge apparently can't differentiate between luxury resorts in Massachusetts and a third-world hellhole
00:22 nubbins` nice to meet your disaster, here's 10 tons of co2
00:23 nubbins` or "plant air"
00:23 mircea_popescu nubbins` that's not it. a buncha fuctards have to be hosted somewhere, and they don't carry tents to camp in.
00:23 mircea_popescu and a bunch is like 1k people by now.
00:25 BingoBoingo nubbins`: What are your thoughts on archival inks?
00:25 nubbins` ah, care to direct me a bit more than that?
00:25 mircea_popescu no nubbins` you gotta give the long form abofe!
00:26 BingoBoingo nubbins`: Something that pairs well with the lifespan of cotton fiber paper.
00:26 BingoBoingo Looking for something that might beat the old standard of India Ink, but as far as I know that is the state of the art
00:27 decimation heh one of the links in greenspun's blog: http://archive.delawareonline.com/article/20060614/NEWS/60614001/Air-Force-blames-crew-C-5-crash
00:27 assbot Air Force blames crew for C-5 crash | The News Journal | delawareonline.com
00:27 nubbins` india ink is pretty solid, as long as it's marked as archival quality
00:28 nubbins` pascale is using some sort of watercolor pastes these days that come in impossibly small tubes, i'll check them out next time i'm upstairs
00:28 BingoBoingo Interesting
00:28 decimation nubbins`: are you going to use acid-free paper?
00:30 nubbins` decimation, natch
00:31 nubbins` BingoBoingo, winsor & newton is the brand
00:31 * BingoBoingo honestly doesn't care much about acidity of paper, good stuff gets permethrin, capscaisin, and nystatin anyway
00:32 * asciilifeform recalls thread on hanbot's site re: smelling of books & shudders
00:33 decimation asciilifeform: yeah when I read your comment it brought to mind my youth: my friend's homes each had a different smell which struck me as I entered
00:33 BingoBoingo lol
00:33 decimation usually a bad one if they had pets
00:33 asciilifeform ah see, the comment wasn't about smells in the usual sense
00:33 asciilifeform as in, things an adult can actually reliably smell.
00:33 mircea_popescu supposedly this is the most striking quality of a functioning harem.
00:33 mircea_popescu the variety of scent.
00:34 asciilifeform decimation: so it wasn't a matter of what kind of animal there was the dung of
00:34 decimation no, it was something more - including all the clean supplies, carpets, foods, habits
00:35 asciilifeform this was the kind of smell that varied from room to room in a house.
00:35 mircea_popescu pets do have a print, for sure.
00:35 * asciilifeform gives up on trying to describe it because it was not attributable to any familiar object like shit, piss, food, carbol, etc.
00:36 mircea_popescu never give up.
00:36 asciilifeform handiest way to answer this question is build the amp & show firsthand.
00:36 asciilifeform one day.
00:37 decimation hehe perhaps after a rich prince has funded your secure terminal
00:37 asciilifeform lol
00:39 asciilifeform re: story with airplanes: i once saw something quite like this in life. was in wash., d.c., and an entire sixteen or so blocks were barricaded off, no one knew why. some days later, newspapers triumphantly described dick cheney's dinner at a certain restaurant in middle of said place.
00:40 asciilifeform these folks actually picture themselves as 'chinese emperors', with 'forbidden city' conjured up anywhere they like.
00:41 asciilifeform city police, for the duration, becomes their private army, etc.
00:41 decimation which would be one thing if they were the doge of venice
00:42 decimation but these guys also conjure the salaries for all of their minions out of thin air
00:45 asciilifeform the other pertinent 'psychiatric' observation here is that the waste decried in the airplane piece is - mandatory. consider - in savage tribe where, e.g, hats are worm, chieftain might have longest hat. or he might get the choicest slice of long pig, whichever. in 'consumption' tribe - modern usa - what badge of rank for royalty?
00:45 asciilifeform one ought to be surprised they don't burn the airplane on the public square every time.
00:46 decimation yeah that's a good point
00:46 asciilifeform this kind of thing can be relied on to carry on - until can't
00:46 decimation it's an elaborate cargo-cult of security with real humans acting as the 'cargo plane'
00:47 decimation and even though the president has very little personal authority his underlings are more than happy to throw this security party because they each get a part
00:48 asciilifeform don't forget the machines and their vendors. various parts with high-threes or low-fours 'MTBF', periodic mandatory maintenance, etc. - churn inventory.
00:49 decimation hehe yeah. as one commentator put it (on greenspun's site): "I doubt that Obama (or Bush in his day) even thinks about what kind of travel arrangements are being made on his behalf. It’s the lackeys around them who like to be part of a grand spectacle, compounded by unfettered risk aversion in the federal and MA security apparatus."
00:49 asciilifeform people like to laugh at 'golden toilet' - but the latter is potentially heirloom item, will show no detectable wear for a thousand years
00:49 asciilifeform american 'golden toilets' tend to fall into rust if you forget them in a closet for a year.
00:50 mircea_popescu <decimation> and even though the president has very little personal authority his underlings are more than happy to throw this security party because they each get a part << quite.
00:50 decimation asciilifeform: but the trouble is that instead of conjuring actual heirloom objects, the usg method is to piss away the money on 'airlifting' an SUV from DC to New England
00:50 mircea_popescu if i were president i'd just walk there.
00:50 decimation as if you couldn't just drive there in 4 hours
00:51 decimation Or load up on any of 100000 trucks who move such cars as a trade (or trains)
00:51 mircea_popescu said no roman emperor after caracalla, for the very reason that made charlemagne great : he was nothing much outside of the chief of the guards.
00:52 asciilifeform u.s. presidential car is an infamous laughing-stock - broke down recently in england (?) and they had one hell of a time finding a shop that would attempt repair
00:52 asciilifeform (and, presumably, properly 'aryan')
00:52 mircea_popescu heh.
00:53 mircea_popescu meanwhile over here, i ran into a chamber minority leader (they have like six) in a coffee shop by the courthouse.
00:53 decimation supposedly the constitution forbids forcing citizens to quarter troops, but apparently giving up their livelihoods and ruining their vacations so usg can have a security part is 'ok for them'
00:54 mircea_popescu <asciilifeform> don't forget the machines and their vendors. various parts with high-threes or low-fours 'MTBF', periodic mandatory maintenance, etc. - churn inventory. <<< would seem to contradict asciilifeform> u.s. presidential car is an infamous laughing-stock - broke down recently in england (?) and they had one hell of a time finding a shop that would attempt repair
00:54 mircea_popescu these can't both be the case.
00:54 asciilifeform sure it can.
00:54 mircea_popescu tell ?
00:54 decimation the mtbf numbers are all theoretical
00:54 asciilifeform they neglected to bring 'lockheed' - or whoever normally diddles that machine - along for the ride.
00:55 mircea_popescu decimation point being the vultures in question'd have made good money out of it.
00:55 mircea_popescu oh.
00:55 mircea_popescu that far huh ?
00:55 asciilifeform if i recall, it was eventually flown (!) back for repairs.
00:55 decimation http://www.sre.org/pubs/Mil-Hdbk-338B.pdf
00:56 mircea_popescu decimation re heirloom items. anyone know who cato porcius was, and why he got that name ?
00:56 asciilifeform other detail was that it was done in by a ragged bit of cement on road.
00:56 asciilifeform (broke axle, if i remember)
00:56 asciilifeform and this, with 'world's best armour' etc.
00:56 decimation I only know of Cato the Elder
00:56 decimation oh, same guy
00:57 mircea_popescu he was a censor, and as a censor he had the authority to forbid luxury expenditures. which he did, by forbiding some types of textile, which were very expensive, all imported, and wore quickly.
00:57 mircea_popescu the women - which, by that time, were mostly prostitutes - all hated him for it,
00:57 mircea_popescu and what did they do ? they went to reddit to call him names!
00:58 mircea_popescu all of it - quite feminine :)
00:58 asciilifeform lol
00:58 decimation the reddit of the time being the stall of some brother or something?
00:58 decimation s/brother/ brothel/
00:59 mircea_popescu well they had these bed-parties
00:59 mircea_popescu (they didn't sit around the table. they... lay there)
01:02 BingoBoingo !up ThickAsThieves
01:03 decimation When I think of security paranoia among US leaders it reminds me of this story in the Daily Mail: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2049430/Royal-Navy-turn-guns-pointing-Michelle-Obamas-hotel-room-around.html

01:26 decimation I read it as a parable about GPG usability
01:27 mircea_popescu but anyway, here's a rfc. in re this bet : http://bitbet.us/bet/854/ it calls for pierce to be a director. currently as per https://bitcoinfoundation.org/about/overview/ he seems to have been silently downgraded to member.
01:27 assbot BitBet - Brock Pierce to resign at BTC Foundation :: 0.3 B (3%) on Yes, 10.08 B (97%) on No | closed 1 week 5 hours ago
01:27 assbot Overview | The Bitcoin Foundation
01:27 BingoBoingo Mac OS (which roughly excludes things with version numbers greater than 7.1) did this thing where options presented graphically reflected machine state. 7.5.1 and later along with the OS X bastard begin the breaking of correspondence with... nigger fingers
01:27 mircea_popescu im going to have that as a yes, sometime tomorrow. if anyone wants to make an argument... you got about a day.
01:27 cazalla wtf bitbet scam this is like the bfl bet
01:28 cazalla sounds fair tbh, they must've done it on the sly not to bring attention to him
01:28 BingoBoingo Oh Brock silently coup'd
01:28 mircea_popescu it'
01:28 mircea_popescu s a funny testament to both his and their relative importance
01:28 mircea_popescu that the only point at which anyone notices this is when a bitbet mod tries to close a bitbet bet.
01:29 decimation or that 10 btc is enough to motivate changing their 'structure'
01:30 BingoBoingo It really seems that their entire structure changed to confound the bet
01:30 cazalla did he resign or do it willingly though
01:31 gernika I'm not understanding the argument that, shall we say, the less fair skinned would be extinct if not transported to the americas. Seems to me like there are more deadly diseases originating from Africa that kill whites than the other way around. Whites trying to settle Africa near the equator died like tsetse flies.
01:31 BingoBoingo Honestly an questionable interpretation may be they went from a board of directors to a board of members... odd presentation question, maybe leading to a trap, but totes niggarific
01:32 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo interesting poin tre appleos stuff. i never followed it any so i had no clue.
01:32 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: This is what happens when your first computer is an actual mac in 2000-2001
01:32 mircea_popescu gernika so where is the great iroquis nation ?
01:33 cazalla maybe it's like casino whereby brock says he is food and beverage director but really about the only thing he directed was the casino
01:33 mircea_popescu (and by any measures it WAS a great nation. greater than say, that-time italy)
01:33 BingoBoingo Still it looks like Brock could lose this bet on webdesign points
01:33 mircea_popescu cazalla yeah. right. so many punks grow up to be shadowlords.
01:33 gernika mircea_popescu dead. I mean subsaharan africans though.
01:33 mircea_popescu gernika land in africa is just as valuable as land in the midwest, as far as land goes.
01:34 mircea_popescu imagiune there wasn't a massive african diaspora in the us. how would rhodesia have looked ?
01:34 BingoBoingo The precendent where Brock looses this bet on web design grounds could set a great precedent
01:34 mircea_popescu there wasn't a massive chicano diaspora at isabelle's court. how did mexico look /
01:34 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo wtf is one to do ?
01:35 cazalla well look, bobby lee is named board member as well yet they were elected to same role
01:35 mircea_popescu what role was it ?
01:35 mircea_popescu "director of board membership" or something ?
01:35 cazalla if board member, bad bet?
01:35 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: To be fair I have great gains to make if the bet is resolved as yes, but... if such resolution makes muppets begin treating web documents as documents of record when they publich and maintain them... that would be a plus.
01:36 mircea_popescu it can't really be a bad bet retroactively.
01:36 mircea_popescu maybe the result ios a "this website is merely informational" disclaimer. as if lol.
01:36 BingoBoingo I mean I'm not correcting attrocious sentences on my blog using the grounds that text is sacred.
01:38 cazalla way back when shows those vacant seats as board members not directors
01:39 mircea_popescu cazalla i find it distinctly riodiculous that nobody pointed this out prior.
01:39 mircea_popescu for all the retarded nitpicks that make their way into bitbet comments...
01:39 BingoBoingo I mean I am no where near as confident on this argument as when I Bitbet lawyered my way to a righteous win on S.DICE vs. S.BBET however this seems to instead harken back to luke-jr's BFL miner.

01:42 cazalla why is bobby lee not still a director then
01:43 mircea_popescu cazalla i am actually seeing a lot of merit in your position.
01:43 mircea_popescu upon further consideration.
01:43 BingoBoingo The argument I see in favor of no is largely a lack of resignation.
01:46 cazalla unless bobby lee joined him for a pool party
01:47 BingoBoingo Maybe get some pedo wiki lawyers on this case?
01:47 mircea_popescu "The three pilots in the cockpit had a combined 10,000 hours of flying time in the C-5, and were backed by two flight engineers with a combined 12,000 hours in the air. "
01:47 mircea_popescu dude gtfo.
01:48 mircea_popescu im not buying this "so they suddenly became greenhorns" argument.
01:48 BingoBoingo I mean they are presenting these people as something they weren't when the bet was opened.
01:48 decimation yeah an alternative explanation is that the upgrade was actually a downgrade
01:49 mircea_popescu decimation senator says that's not the case :)
01:49 BingoBoingo The foundation may be trying to set a trap, where they assume board member should be assumed as a director on the board. In spite of that abusing the definition of both board and director
01:50 BingoBoingo I feel comfortable though disclosing 1A8CEYzN75pCztEb9VmZg7ATFTtLmNS3qU was the address for my bet, HI AGENT BROACHWALA!!!11!!
01:54 BingoBoingo It may be the way of the future that tards start combating BitBet by changing labels.
01:55 mircea_popescu well... the problem is deeper than that. they're already combating sense by changing labels. take the board of directors : one used to have tro be a director first to be on that board.
01:55 mircea_popescu nowadays... one wants to get on the board and this is presumed to make them a "director". over what ? heh.
01:56 BingoBoingo That.
01:56 decimation I thought the whole idea of 'boards' in us corporate law is to create a body that is independent of the management
01:56 decimation I would think the presumption would be that none of the board members are directors in the sense of holding management positions
01:57 BingoBoingo decimation: Becasue directors are over management. But other forms of boards exist
01:57 mircea_popescu someone just fucking crashed outside.
01:57 mircea_popescu the street is one of the widest IN THE WORLD
01:57 mircea_popescu and it's fucking empty.
01:57 decimation drunk?
01:57 mircea_popescu must be. the trunks of tuesday night god help us.
01:57 BingoBoingo decimation: Drunk is not an explanation for a crash in itself
01:58 gernika mircea_popescu ok I think I see your point, though it seems like colonialism within Africa would have been more influential in transferring technology, especially in Rhodesia, from where very few slaves probably originated or to where the educated descendants may have returned. Sierra Leone and Liberia, where a lot of descendants of slaves actually returned to are serious shit holes.

02:03 mircea_popescu so now the principal export of the country is... soy.
02:03 mircea_popescu that work for you ?

04:26 BingoBoingo RagnarDanneskjol: Let's take this debate in chan
04:27 BingoBoingo I'd really like those coins in the short term, but what does the Brock bet resolution imply in the long term
04:27 BingoBoingo RagnarDanneskjol: What is your first language?
04:27 RagnarDanneskjol cpp
04:27 RagnarDanneskjol English
04:28 BingoBoingo So RagnarDanneskjol How much of the conversation on this bet and the BTC Foundation's site thus far?
04:29 RagnarDanneskjol i know i lack the eloquence of some of the big brains in here, but didnt think my grammers were that bad
04:29 RagnarDanneskjol please rephrase the question
04:30 BingoBoingo lol, I'm drunk. How much of the conversation on this bet and the BTC Foundation's site thus far and their interaction have you read on?
04:31 RagnarDanneskjol none prior to our conversation - last I read brock's name was the press releases in May indicating he was refusing resignation
04:32 RagnarDanneskjol anytime i see btc foundation, the eyes gloss over
04:32 BingoBoingo Well... time passes at the moment, key words seem to be resigned and director. MP has a strong position on the word director.
04:33 RagnarDanneskjol Ahh, regarding the verbiage on the wager, i read "resigns" as the key determining factor
04:33 BingoBoingo The thing is RagnarDanneskjol breaking the BTC foundation can probably pay more dividens than golang BTCD
04:33 BingoBoingo Right, resigns can be determining. So can director as well.
04:34 BingoBoingo Welcome to the origins of a cluster fuck.
04:34 RagnarDanneskjol haha
04:35 BingoBoingo Because several months ago the BTC foundation advertised a board of directors, while now... the advertise a board of members.
04:35 BingoBoingo RagnarDanneskjol: Do you have a way to contact Brock for his input?
04:36 RagnarDanneskjol right, it was a shrewd and tactful deciscion
04:36 RagnarDanneskjol yes, I can visit the office anyday
04:36 RagnarDanneskjol but he gives me the creeps
04:36 punkman I thought Brock was the one that bet 10btc
04:36 BingoBoingo But it doesn't appear to be shrewd
04:36 BingoBoingo punkman: So did I. Still I want to contact him if I can.
04:37 punkman BingoBoingo: it seems nobody put any real money down on yes, guessing clusterfuck was expected
04:38 BingoBoingo punkman: I put about 0.1 on yes expecting a clusterfuck I could lose.
04:38 punkman well as I see it, some people still have Director in their titles, Brock doesn't
04:39 BingoBoingo One of the most amazing things about homo sapien biology is the separation of circulatory and lymphatic systems between the scrotum and testes
04:39 assbot AMAZING COMPANY!
04:40 cazalla the position that brock and bobby lee won were advertised as board members not directors
04:41 cazalla having glossed over director/board member, i bet no as i thought brock the rock was a lock
04:41 BingoBoingo cazalla: But if they were never directors Brock could also not resign from a directorship?
04:41 BingoBoingo Brock is only a rock in the kiddie pool.
04:41 cazalla rock spider
04:42 BingoBoingo And I bet yes, because I thought the FBI was on our side instead of on my fucking doorstep.
04:42 BingoBoingo The amount I put on yes was minimal compared to what that one nigger put on no.
04:44 cazalla wonder if it is brock
04:44 BingoBoingo I seriously would love the yes returns on that bet, but hate the hate if yes was interpreted the yes way.
04:44 BingoBoingo Kinda why I want brock in this chan yesterday.
04:45 RagnarDanneskjol so he can confirm or deny resignation?
04:46 RagnarDanneskjol I doubt he would confirm either way
04:46 BingoBoingo RagnarDanneskjol: So he can confirm or evade like a slimy chomo piece of shit.

04:46 punkman they sure called him director a lot back then
04:47 BingoBoingo punkman: But that was back then.
04:47 punkman was there another "Executive Director" before matonis
04:47 BingoBoingo The problem is the foundation is as solid as coco butter

04:49 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo what can the guy do, practically ?
04:50 mircea_popescu take an oath ?
04:50 cazalla perhaps it's brock that tells the journos that he's the director
04:50 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: He can answer. Maybe not well, but in the worst case he can repent
04:50 BingoBoingo I mean what can Obama do?
04:51 mircea_popescu im just saying, generally to find an individuals position with an organisation, you need anyone but him
04:51 punkman maybe ask Matonis then?
04:51 mircea_popescu which is unclear who'd be. vesseneess is an asshole i wouldn't take the word of anyway, and nobody else is in charge there.
04:52 mircea_popescu punkman is this the same matonis that got kicked out a while back and then went back in ?
04:52 punkman no idea

04:56 penguirker New blog post: http://trilema.com/2014/the-human-stain/
04:59 punkman what if Brock never were a director, wouldn't that make for a badbet?
04:59 punkman to resign from a position you must have held the position at some point
05:00 punkman in one of the foundation's IRS forms for 2013, only Matonis is listed as Executive Director and some girl as Assistant Director
05:00 BingoBoingo If he were never a director that would, I think resolve as a "no"
05:01 cazalla that's what i said earlier punkman
05:01 BingoBoingo As you have to be a diretor to resign from directorship.
05:01 punkman and it doesn't seem that board members hold any directorial duties
05:01 BingoBoingo This revision from director board to memberboard makes everything so messy though.
05:02 BingoBoingo It is a serious fucking Hearnia
05:02 BingoBoingo Iodine Wipes!
05:02 BingoBoingo Scalpel!
05:02 cazalla way back when also lists karpeles as board member not director

05:03 BingoBoingo Not that blunt piece of shit cazalla, get me a fucking sharp #10!
05:03 cazalla but when he resigned, the foundation said "Effective immediately, Mark Karpeles has submitted his resignation from the board of directors"
05:04 cazalla http://web.archive.org/web/20140224183648/https://bitcoinfoundation.org/blog/?p=462
05:04 assbot Bitcoin Foundation: Blog
05:04 punkman they call it a board of directors in their bylaws, which are supposed to be current
05:05 BingoBoingo diana_coman Halp, what is Ingles?
05:05 punkman fukken words
05:05 punkman how do they even work
05:05 BingoBoingo punkman: But are their bylaws current with their actual operations? Are the nigger actually picking cotton in the field? These are hard fucking problems man.
05:06 cazalla that release constrasted with this http://web.archive.org/web/20140214150712/https://bitcoinfoundation.org/about/board
05:06 assbot Bitcoin Foundation: About: Board Members
05:06 RagnarDanneskjol "statements that can not univocally be established as either true or false at a certain point in the future are BadBets and as such unacceptable on BitBet. For instance, "God Exists" is unacceptable, because it can never be established as either true or false."

05:11 assbot Bitcoin Foundation
05:11 punkman so he's always been board member on the website
05:13 BingoBoingo Is this a board of members or a board of directors?
05:13 BingoBoingo Does anyone have some lithium citrate?
05:14 RagnarDanneskjol board members
05:16 BingoBoingo RagnarDanneskjol: And that is in the middle of two options.
05:16 BingoBoingo A board is nothing but what it can be composed of
05:17 BingoBoingo Is this a director fiber or a member fiber?
05:19 RagnarDanneskjol well, many boards have consultants, litigators, etc who participate as non-members
05:19 BingoBoingo And on many they participate as members, but not directors
05:20 RagnarDanneskjol right
05:20 BingoBoingo The yes interpretations of the brock bet leave a lot of room for educating the niggerboard on meaning

05:21 BingoBoingo The no interpretation seems to offer moar... something
05:22 RagnarDanneskjol seems to me the wording for this wager could qualify under "Can bets be cancelled? ...material changes that make the bet meaningless"
05:22 mircea_popescu except nothing apparently changed.
05:23 BingoBoingo Nothing except the clarity of foundation slime.
05:23 RagnarDanneskjol true - other than interpretations, prolly dosn't meet threshold for"material" changes, unless it does
05:24 punkman BingoBoingo: the clarity wasn't there to begin with
05:26 RagnarDanneskjol better yet "We do review comments made for cases where bets should indeed be cancelled..."

05:32 RagnarDanneskjol for bingo's sake, I hope you win, but seems far too much ambiguity in wording for any clear answer - with or without direct 'confirmations' from the source.
05:32 BingoBoingo I dunno that I want to win this one.
05:32 BingoBoingo And not just because the FBI knows my free'd name nao
05:33 RagnarDanneskjol I'm sure you're gonna be fine either way bingo
05:35 BingoBoingo RagnarDanneskjol: Only if I know people who can pester over the matter of everything though.
05:36 BingoBoingo If charges and remand mean an ankelbracelet and home instead of an ankel bracelet and the Darien gap... Anger!
05:38 BingoBoingo RagnarDanneskjol: If only you enumerated the ways I can't be fine. Spiders? not fine! Centipedes? not fine!
05:38 BingoBoingo And there's more
05:39 BingoBoingo x86 computers? not fine!
05:40 RagnarDanneskjol Bingo, you may not feel fine, but you will BE fine
05:41 RagnarDanneskjol perhaps more weed, less lithium+booze.
05:42 BingoBoingo RagnarDanneskjol: You may be using different definitions of "be" and "feel" in this context than I would. I mean I've enjoyed my least time in a locked ward.
05:42 BingoBoingo And I know of no US programs that do lithium+booze.
05:43 BingoBoingo Not that I like Lithium. It takes all of 3 days to make my flanks hurt like a whipped bitch.
05:44 RagnarDanneskjol ok, you seem rather well adjusted to me. maybe its everyone else who's crazy
05:44 BingoBoingo Still better than risperidone which makes me produce dairy like a moo cow while trembling liek micheal J fox.
05:45 RagnarDanneskjol sounds like a party
05:45 BingoBoingo RagnarDanneskjol: The greatest asset in any situation is knowledge of how you react.
05:46 BingoBoingo I'm curious how Magnus Carlsen reacts to Ferguson niggers.
05:46 BingoBoingo I bet it is better than how he reats to Ferguson police though.

05:56 jdanks BoingoBoingo dude the only reason it isn't in the ground going to seed is because the danged ladies dug/scratched it up.
05:56 cazalla barred rocks are the same as plymouths, right?
05:56 jdanks Yes and Amrocks too I think.
05:57 cazalla i had 3 sussex bantams and 3 plymouth bantams

05:58 jdanks (: I love chickens, they are pretty hilarious to watch sometimes. They do create drama for themselves haha
05:58 cazalla jdanks, yeah same, one of the sussex we had was so tame, the others would stay back but she'd come to the sliding door and peck it for food
05:58 jdanks Those bantams are awesome. My faves are the barred rocks because they look like zebras
05:59 jdanks lol Boingo that's sad. Don't those eat like..anything?
05:59 jdanks cazalla when I'm outside having a cig they love jumping for it. Hell you can have anything in your hand and they will swarm you.
06:00 BingoBoingo jdanks: Yes, tilapia are the worst in every sense. If you propose it to them as a food, they eat it.
06:01 BingoBoingo Closest thing I can think of to Tilapia are Oscars, another African cichlid.
06:02 jdanks I met this mechanical engineer once. He tells us his life story. After an hour he invites us into his house and backyard and he had this wonderful custom pool with crazy skulls in the cement. He was gonna farm Tilapia one season then I think crawfish the next and they would eat each others' poo or something. He had it all figured out lol

06:03 BingoBoingo Tilapia aren't shit eaters like goldfish, but they aren't picky either.

06:08 RagnarDanneskjol didnt think they edible

06:19 BingoBoingo I gave up on that, but thanks. It would be like trying to document the goings on of the NSA.
06:19 BingoBoingo There is 3 dimensional chess occuring in Europe right now between Western Europe, Putin and the relative absence of the US. Pretty much everyone is pissed at / keeping an eye on Americans who are career US gvt. (Never fear - we were military and are now Contractors - no 3 letter agencies here...).
06:19 BingoBoingo The difficulty is, if you've lived this life (and not been a stupid git going la la la in a bubble) for a long time, you learn to do certain things on auto pilot that, to someone looking for a "suspicious person" may ring bells. e.g. Take different routes, stay very aware of surroundings and people, avoid cameras (who the hell wants to be on the internet besides Jerod?), and for God's sake, sit facing the door of the restaurant!
06:19 BingoBoingo These things were common place for military people during the Cold War and then people just kind of... forgot. Well, welcome to the new world order: it's the same as the old one, it never went away - people just stopped paying attention. Some people, anyway.

07:50 mircea_popescu "We do recognize the need for a new init system in the 21st century, but systemd is not it."
07:50 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: systemd-ism explains the nigbuntu suck
07:50 mircea_popescu i musta missed that memo. what's so special about this 21st century that it can't eat the same oatmeal all the other 58 coming before it did ?
07:52 mircea_popescu "1. systemd flies in the face of the Unix philosophy: "do one thing and do it well," representing a complex collection of dozens of tightly coupled binaries1. Its responsibilities grossly exceed that of an init system, as it goes on to handle power management, device management, mount points, cron, disk encryption, socket API/inetd, syslog, network configuration, login/session management, readahead, GPT partition disco
07:52 mircea_popescu very, container registration, hostname/locale/time management, and other things."
07:52 mircea_popescu ahahhaha.
07:52 mircea_popescu no prng ? but why not :D
07:52 pankkake except the distros init systems actually do that
07:53 pankkake so, retards with no idea what they are talking about
07:54 pankkake again, come back when you have used the things, and tried to do basic sysadmin stuff with those
07:54 mircea_popescu systemd's journal files (handled by journald) are stored in a complicated binary format2, and must be queried using journalctl. This makes journal logs potentially corruptible, as they do not have ACID-compliant transactions. You typically don't want that to happen to your syslogs. The advice of the systemd developers? Ignore it. No, seriously. Oh, and there's embedded HTTP server integration (libmicrohttpd). QR codes
07:54 mircea_popescu are served, as well, through libqrencode.
07:54 mircea_popescu libmircohttpd ? srsly ?
07:56 mircea_popescu By default, systemd saves core dumps to the journal, instead of the file system. Core dumps must be explicitly queried using coredumpctl4. Besides going against all reason, it also creates complications in multi-user environments (good luck running gdb on your program's core dump if it's dumped to the journal and you don't have root access)
07:56 mircea_popescu ahahaha who the fuck designed this
07:57 pankkake have you actually checked the validity of this list?
07:57 mircea_popescu i mean sure, the "journal gets corrupted, fuck you, we're not fixing it" i can see. but then... dump all cores into it ?
07:57 mircea_popescu pankkake i have nfi, this is my checking process. does it suck ?
07:58 pankkake yeah, I don't know why I bother...
07:58 BingoBoingo pankkake: I still like Solaris 8
07:58 pankkake there's "like" and "I have to actually do things with it"
07:58 pankkake seriously, is this a joke?
07:59 mircea_popescu pankkake which part ?
07:59 pankkake the part of jumping of the "systemd is bad" bandwagon without any knowledge whatsoever
07:59 BingoBoingo pankkake: this is *nix world, everything works!
07:59 pankkake ...
07:59 punkman pankkake: well I have no clue, but is it that systemd is not retarded, or that the alternatives suck
08:00 mircea_popescu "It's also worth noting that systemd will refuse to start as a user instance, unless the system boots with it as well"
08:00 mircea_popescu herp.
08:01 mircea_popescu pankkake so far i see some glaringly bad design decisions (core in journal, srsly ?) and some meat to the "they're trying to hijack linux" allegations. (srsly, this shit is too good to run as a user instance ?)
08:01 mircea_popescu i don't particularly give a shit anyway, not like i;ve been seriously contemplating running contemporary distros anywhere anyway.
08:01 mircea_popescu "systemd clusters itself into PID 1. Due to it controlling lots of different components, this means that there are tons of scenarios in which it can crash and bring down the whole system. But in addition, this means that plenty of non-kernel system upgrades will now require a reboot."
08:01 mircea_popescu how about that one roflmao.
08:02 mircea_popescu srsly, it does all that AND it does it all as a single pid, AND it fixes which pid ? help me rwanda, what is this, microshit's fired a lot of "engineers" ?
08:02 chetty sounds like windows
08:02 pankkake init systems are PID 1...

08:03 mircea_popescu o.O
08:04 mircea_popescu dude, init systems that hijack the core dumping process, control the power settings and disk fucking encryption all together aren't "init systems" in the vein of what you're thinking of.
08:04 mircea_popescu and why's he so touchy anyway.
08:05 mircea_popescu "11. Ultimately, systemd's parasitism is symbolic of something more than systemd itself. It shows a radical shift in thinking by the Linux community. Not necessarily a positive one, either. One that is vehemently postmodern, monolithic, heavily desktop-oriented, choice-limiting, isolationist, reinvents the flat tire, and just a huge anti-pattern in general. If your goal is to pander to the lowest common denominator, so
08:05 mircea_popescu be it. We will look for alternatives, however." << there's definitely some substance to that.

08:13 pankkake and init systems DO handle encryption, network setup

09:10 Azelphur BingoBoingo: CalDAV is an open specification that has been around for ages, if your application doesn't support it it's your application that sucks and not ownCloud
09:10 BingoBoingo OS 7.5.1 is the end of the line
09:10 Azelphur :P
09:10 BingoBoingo Azelphur: I can't help it if computers have onky gone downhill since 1991
09:10 Azelphur lol
09:11 BingoBoingo I mean software's gotten better.
09:11 Azelphur well caldav was only drafted in 2007, so I guess you're out of luck ;)
09:11 BingoBoingo You can run XFCE 4.10 on a motorola 68030...
09:12 BingoBoingo !up mapop
09:12 Azelphur BingoBoingo: I can run XFCE on my phone too :P
09:13 BingoBoingo Azelphur: I bet your phone has more than two colors though
09:13 Azelphur indeed it does
09:13 BingoBoingo Azelphur: You realize this highlights a prime problem wrought by the nternet, right?
09:14 Azelphur orly
09:14 Azelphur BingoBoingo: I have a friend you'd like, he still has a 486 :P
09:14 BingoBoingo Ya rly
09:14 BingoBoingo 486 is too new
09:15 BingoBoingo If that had cred I'd be rolling a 68060
09:15 BingoBoingo CISC hit a dead end at the 68030 though
09:16 Azelphur lol
09:16 BingoBoingo What the internet means though is that some nigga's Mac SE/30 is just as much a first class citizen as sum bitches Samsung galaxy s8

09:21 Azelphur BingoBoingo: I don't believe I did :)
09:22 mircea_popescu Azelphur so are you getting stock options ?
09:22 Azelphur mircea_popescu: I haven't really touched investments beyond sitting on bitcoin for a while now
09:22 BingoBoingo Azelphur: You mentioned the friend with a 486, if you've ever used a TI-89 you can convert him to saner options
09:22 Azelphur I'm bad at it, remember? :P
09:22 mircea_popescu nono, i mean, you going to work for this owncloud thing
09:23 Azelphur mircea_popescu: oh, no, the tl;dr is that dropbox was annoying me so I switched to ownCloud, which annoyed me because it didn't have file browser integration, so I wrote it
09:23 mircea_popescu and they got really excited with you, and paid for your trip over
09:23 Azelphur exactly
09:23 mircea_popescu you left unemployed ?!

09:25 mircea_popescu think for a second. it's a business, right ? it pays for your ticket to come over, that's a job interview.
09:25 mircea_popescu what else.
09:25 BingoBoingo If only in 2010 MP would have beat me with the truth that no one hires librarians.
09:25 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo you coulda asked :D
09:26 Azelphur mircea_popescu: well if it was a job interview, I solved every single problem, including a pile of everybody elses, turned up at 9am in the morning and left at 8pm every day for a week, I don't think I could have been more perfect if I tried :P
09:26 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: When MpU is a thing, I'll keep your books from rotting

09:31 RagnarDanneskjol no reason to take less pay than you're worth
09:31 Azelphur RagnarDanneskjol: oh cool, the window is pretty small considering I'm supposed to be starting at IonCube on Monday
09:31 Azelphur although contracts aren't signed yet
09:31 mircea_popescu RagnarDanneskjol that's an underutilized resource if there was one. the kid is bright.
09:31 RagnarDanneskjol oh we;; that is small -when do you need to accept by?
09:32 Azelphur RagnarDanneskjol: I dunno, HR hasn't contacted me yet
09:32 Azelphur I grumbled at them about the contract because it's a "We own your soul" level evil
09:32 Azelphur but we resolved that to some degree
09:32 RagnarDanneskjol hold them off for a few days if possible. are you working onsite or is it remote?
09:32 Azelphur onsite but their office is only like 30m public transport from me
09:33 Azelphur RagnarDanneskjol: my problem is that I have /no/ corporate experience or qualifications, I'm just smart. xD
09:33 RagnarDanneskjol ok. might have some descent remote work you can do from home. I'll get back to you latr today
09:33 Azelphur ok :)
09:34 mircea_popescu pankkake you gonna tell me what the systemd butthurt was all about or just gonna rage silently and then come stab me 119 times in the middle of the night FOR NO FAULT OF MY OWN ?
09:35 Azelphur I'd bet on the latter
09:35 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: That's an awfully chewy Trilema article
09:35 mircea_popescu "trilema. chewing gum for your soul."
09:35 pankkake just list a valid technical point of why systemd is bad and I'll listen. as I said, the criticism I see just show lack of knowledge of both systemd and existing init systems
09:36 kakobrekla <Azelphur> mircea_popescu: well if it was a job interview, I solved every single problem, including a pile of everybody elses, turned up at 9am in the morning and left at 8pm every day for a week, I don't think I could have been more perfect if I tried :P < yeah sometime being a jerk hels you not get stuff.
09:36 mircea_popescu putting a bunch of binaries with a bunch of dependency hell in the core of the system init process isn't technical ?
09:36 kakobrekla helps
09:36 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: This talk of sweatship printing as a necessity, yes if everything is old trilems!
09:37 pankkake you're doing it again
09:37 Azelphur kakobrekla: admittedly I've always had trouble walking the trying to help / being a jerk line, in my head I'm always trying to help, but sometimes people don't see it that way.
09:37 Azelphur but then, those are usually the type of people who are overly sensitive anyway
09:37 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo the mps of 2010 wave at you, oh their unknown interlocutor from across the seas.
09:38 mircea_popescu pankkake what am i doing!11 eleventeen
09:38 kakobrekla if you are sheep, act as the master wants.
09:38 pankkake existing init systems are complicated too
09:38 Azelphur kakobrekla: I ain't no sheep :)
09:38 kakobrekla why you looking to get cut then
09:38 mircea_popescu pankkake you know i don't got a call on the topic. so they're complicated, yes. no argument there.
09:39 Azelphur kakobrekla: because I need food? :P
09:39 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: And the mp's of yesteryear exalt blogs so much!
09:39 mircea_popescu kakobrekla do you mean sheared ?

09:40 mircea_popescu btw, anyone seen these wonderful girl pants with a proper zipper ? going from the front all around to two inches over her tailbone ?
09:40 chetty ouch
09:40 mircea_popescu chetty apparently you zip it with your left hand in cupping your bits lol
09:41 BingoBoingo I'm drinking a bottle of Missouri wine, of course I would rahter suck shclitz out of denim
09:41 chetty not just zipping, walk around even would be not nice
09:41 BingoBoingo pankkake: Init must always be complicated, no reason to steal its knobs
09:42 pankkake what does that even mean?
09:42 mircea_popescu pankkake complicated/simple is orthogonal to scripted/binary.
09:42 BingoBoingo pankkake: Because the Linux standard base lets me use a runlevel 4, systemd doesn't allow that
09:44 mircea_popescu if the computer is the shirt, and initd is a tie and systemd is a bowtie, me saying that it's not as easy to hang someone by his bowtie is not answered by your proposition that ties can get stained too. sure, they can, but we were discussing hanging not disembowelment.
09:44 pankkake I use OpenRC which have namespaces and binaries, is that evil too?
09:44 pankkake nevermind that's it's widely more usable
09:45 pankkake it must NEVER CHANGE
09:45 pankkake I suppose you guys are using HAL too
09:45 BingoBoingo OpenRC is like initd
09:45 mircea_popescu pankkake but listen, openrc isn't trying to take over my computer.
09:45 pankkake what does that even mean?
09:45 BingoBoingo Bowties are fine
09:45 pankkake fucking riddles
09:45 BingoBoingo Pianowire if you tell me it is a bowtie is not fine
09:46 mircea_popescu what do you mean riddles!
09:48 BingoBoingo Is the melodic theme from the Godfather a riddle, I'm drunk enough to think I can play that on my euphonium
09:50 mircea_popescu pankkake and in spite of the technical angle, what stinks to high heavens to me is the political angle. so gnome decides to not be dependent on systemd in 2012, then in 2013 they make it a de-facto dependency. because... heh. because why ?
09:51 mircea_popescu it's clearly being pushed, and that will make people with a working head suspicious these days.

09:51 assbot In supersecret cyberwar game, civilian-sector techies pummel active-duty cyberwarriors | Army Times | armytimes.com
09:52 BingoBoingo There are reasons when people persent to me that they use or recommend gnome I suppose they are surrounde with the tools of 2003
09:55 mircea_popescu "we designed systemd with security in mind" << by now this is pretty much usable as-is, might as well be a protein binding site for pathogens.
09:56 mircea_popescu Yes, systemd is fast (A pretty complete userspace boot-up in ~900ms, anyone?) << yeah ? since I dunno, 1995 ? i've always took the system apart if it needed more than a second.
09:56 mircea_popescu it's what it gets to boot. a second.
09:57 BingoBoingo <mircea_popescu> "we designed systemd with security in mind" << by now this is pretty much usable as-is, might as well be a protein binding site for pathogens. << Why not a still moar precarious binging site for understood drugs?
09:58 mircea_popescu cuz it's evil, that's why.
09:58 mircea_popescu "systemd certainly comes with a learning curve. Everything does. However, we like to believe that it is actually simpler to understand systemd than a Shell-based boot for most people. Surprised we say that? Well, as it turns out, Shell is not a pretty language to learn, it's syntax is arcane and complex. systemd unit files are substantially easier to understand, they do not expose a programming language, but are simple
09:58 mircea_popescu and declarative by nature. That all said, if you are experienced in shell, then yes, adopting systemd will take a bit of learning."
09:58 mircea_popescu no see... he's making all the wrong arguments.
09:59 Luke-Jr even I think systemd is crap
09:59 mircea_popescu lmao
09:59 BingoBoingo Take GABA A as an example, very well understood
09:59 Azelphur Everyone is talking about systemd, and I'm just sitting here using runit which nobody knows about.
09:59 Azelphur xD
10:00 mircea_popescu but srsly, it's easier to understand "For most people" ? like easier than what, like easier than it was for that stupid broad whatever her name was to understand that claiming "fake" on a bunch of pics showing her dressed with her tongue sticking out ain't gonna work ?
10:00 BingoBoingo A large number of drugs specifically target GABA A
10:00 pankkake he actually refered to what it was easier to learn
10:01 BingoBoingo And no drug that specifically targets GABA A can efficiently cause death in an overdose
10:01 pankkake I have written inits for systemd, debian, and openrc. have you?
10:01 mircea_popescu only debian.
10:02 mircea_popescu and taking a charitable view of "written"
10:02 BingoBoingo Introduce something other than a benzodiazepine though...
10:03 BingoBoingo And then a single molecule of ETOH opens the cholirde channel too wide, death.

10:06 mircea_popescu then he answers complexity and bloat by claiming... it's monolithic.

10:11 BingoBoingo *final
10:12 BingoBoingo Now if GNU Hurd was a useful thing in 1991... systemd might be a thing.
10:13 BingoBoingo Now though it it just a red hat/nigbuntu annoyance
10:14 BingoBoingo The point is that to call systemd a lost cause I need not be important at all
10:14 BingoBoingo per <Luke-Jr> even I think systemd is crap
10:17 mircea_popescu 19. Myth: systemd forces you to do something. systemd is not the mafia. It's Free Software, you can do with it whatever you want, and that includes not using it. That's pretty much the opposite of "forcing". << lol ok, that's about the most disingenuous thing i read today. you know what else is free software ? BITCOIN!!!
10:18 mircea_popescu and it also doesn't force you to... oh... wait.
10:18 BingoBoingo Systemd distros can go back to the jungle and fuck chimps.
10:18 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: we call this 'добровольно- принудительно' ('voluntary-compulsory')
10:18 BingoBoingo Systemd is over
10:19 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: if enemy died when you said 'bang! yer dead' life'd be a lot simpler, yes.
10:19 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: I've never know not that to be the case.
10:20 mircea_popescu nah, it's not gonna be over for a while yet. it has... well not so much traction, but plenty o' support.
10:20 BingoBoingo Bra's get support
10:20 mircea_popescu mansiere!
10:21 mircea_popescu Myth: systemd makes it impossible to run syslog. >> Not true, we carefully made sure when we introduced the journal that all data is also passed on to any syslog daemon running. In fact, if something changed, then only that syslog gets more complete data now than it got before, since we now cover early boot stuff as well as STDOUT/STDERR of any system service.
10:21 BingoBoingo systemd gets a kilogram of brass. The niggers behind it can decide if the brass is shaped into hammers or bullets.
10:21 mircea_popescu this is kind-of bizarre. so, ok, syslogd gets whatever systemd feels like passing along. why is this useful and to whom
10:22 BingoBoingo Either way the brass isn't going to spark, because that's just what brass does.
10:24 pankkake we now cover early boot stuff as well as STDOUT/STDERR of any system service => since again I am the only one here who actually used the things, this is absolutely crucial
10:25 mircea_popescu o look, there's #systemd
10:25 pankkake daemon crashes, the output goes nowhere
10:25 mircea_popescu pankkake that's a good thing, granted.
10:25 mircea_popescu i'll take a bet you're not the only guy here that ever used the things, for any value of things tho.
10:26 pankkake that's what the log points to
10:26 mircea_popescu lol "No, it can't read mail...yet". a sense o' humor never hurt anyone.
10:26 BingoBoingo <sztanpet> cool, now that its un-prefixed from systemd people are meant to use it anyway so might as well make it useful :D
10:27 BingoBoingo ^^ Nigga speak
10:27 pankkake and as a Gentoo user I don't feel "trapped" so no delusion one way or the other
10:28 BingoBoingo pankkake: Anything that gives me less knobs than a mid 80's GUI is hell
10:28 pankkake care to describe the "knobs"?
10:28 BingoBoingo pankkake: Runlevel4
10:28 mircea_popescu "We regularly attend various conferences, to collect feedback, to explain what we are doing and why, like few others do." << intereskin.
10:28 pankkake ...
10:28 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo what are you so fixated on that anyway. what's it do for you ?
10:29 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: In the linux standard base it is a user defined runlevel
10:29 mircea_popescu anything other than 0 1 and what was it, 7.
10:30 mircea_popescu no, 6.
10:30 BingoBoingo Oh, just anything you care to force upon your boxen
10:30 pankkake so you want your one custom integer runlevel compared to an infinity of named runlevels?
10:31 BingoBoingo pankkake: Yes, because that one runlevel can represent itself aleph sub 0 runlevels
10:32 mircea_popescu For example, systems running systemd now generally store their hostname in /etc/hostname, something that used to be specific to Debian and now is used across distributions. << holy hell that took half a century.
10:32 BingoBoingo If you pretend systemd lives on an arch that can count aleph sub one possibilities Imma take my dick out and correct in in the traditional chinese sense
10:34 mircea_popescu Myth: systemd's use of D-Bus instead of sockets makes it intransparent. This claim is already contradictory in itself: D-Bus uses sockets as transport, too. Hence whenever D-Bus is used to send something around, a socket is used for that too. D-Bus is mostly a standardized serialization of messages to send over these sockets. If anything this makes it more transparent, since this serialization is well documented, under
10:34 mircea_popescu stood and there are numerous tracing tools and language bindings for it. This is very much unlike the usual homegrown protocols the various classic UNIX daemons use to communicate locally.
10:34 mircea_popescu now that's a good fucking point, jesus it took a while to get to one.
10:35 BingoBoingo As there is no uncountably infinite 0x in computing machines, there may be a lot of rapin to do to correct everybody.

16:22 kuzetsa geez, it's kinda crappy that a game that's been around since 1999 still sometimes have NPCs in one of the main areas which like... interracting with the NPC is bugged, and instantly crashes the game client 100% of the time
16:23 kuzetsa this time, as a test I tried a nearby vendor (no crash) then went back to the one I had problems with and it was reproducable & crashed yet again
16:24 chetty guess it is not being maintained, what game is it?
16:24 kuzetsa no, it's totally being maintained, and the 21st expansion is due out 4th quarter 2014 (october, tentatively)
16:24 kuzetsa everquest
16:25 kuzetsa which I believe is like... the original MMORPG ever or something like that
16:30 kuzetsa oh... maybe not -- this one was around first, and you had to use a dial-up modem to directly connect to it because basically nobody had interent connections in 1992 ---> http://i.imgur.com/35lSTcU.jpg
16:30 kuzetsa "[...] for as little as $1.80 per hour"
16:30 kuzetsa O_O

16:44 kuzetsa http://i.imgur.com/35lSTcU.jpg <-- yes, really (that's an old magazine advert for it)

17:34 kuzetsa haha indeed
17:34 kuzetsa but really though, sperm are produced less than a year before they die
17:36 kuzetsa so as far as genetic material, the "destined to be you" genetic material already in existance was likely the egg (ovaries start off with all the eggs they'll ever have, and just stay dormant except during a cycle)
