00:00 asciilifeform and no need for bdb, boost, turdolate on other box
00:00 asciilifeform mircea_popescu lol
00:00 asciilifeform mircea_popescu won't give us his soviet calculator proggy, dooming us to rewrite it
00:00 * mircea_popescu hires some lobbysts to sit on the standards group and prevent this evil.
00:00 mod6 yeah, but personally, i wanna start simple. and then work our way up to major changes.
00:00 mod6 if do slash and burn first, we're gonna have unforseen issues
00:01 mod6 and noone wants that
00:01 asciilifeform slash&burn first is more or less what we're doing
00:01 asciilifeform (assuming we're doing something)
00:01 decimation slash and burn makes for more readable code
00:01 * asciilifeform hasn't done particularly much something
00:01 * asciilifeform just wanted a goddamned book he could take to the forest and go Hmmm with
00:02 mircea_popescu that's how troubles start.
00:02 mod6 eh, yeah, these things are all great ideas. and necessary. but i think the best course of action is to get something up and working as a baseline with the most minimal changes possible so we have something to run when derpistan puts in the hardfork
00:02 mircea_popescu no but seriously, and somewhat from experience : while the serial thing is a solid design, i suspect it's also a bridge too far
00:02 mircea_popescu prolly a better idea to keep things sane and incrementally improve ?
00:02 mod6 that's plausibly only 8 weeks out. and we'd better have something to run by then. i don't wanna be chasing crazy changes down when we could have just gotten something simple running first.
00:02 * asciilifeform oils gachette of slash&burn blaster
00:03 mod6 <+mircea_popescu> prolly a better idea to keep things sane and incrementally improve ? << this is the way it must be done. even though slash and burn feels so damn good.
00:03 mircea_popescu mod6 it's not happening, at all. but that notwithstanding, you do have a solid point, as a general thing. and 8 weeks is certainly narrower a frame than anything usgavin&co can do.
00:03 mod6 understood. i worry about these jokers.
00:04 mircea_popescu they're much less apt than they pretend to be. but that aside : ineptitude of the enemy is no excuse to derp.
00:04 mircea_popescu these are all valuable changes. just, i'm persuaded by your smaller steps approach.
00:04 mircea_popescu theoretical conflict of interest or no.
00:04 asciilifeform doesn't get any smaller or simpler than scuttling the obvious crud.
00:04 asciilifeform i gave example.
00:05 mircea_popescu asciilifeform well the discussion is if the json-rpc part is in the obvious crud or in the eventual crud group
00:05 mod6 and it's a great example. but it makes me nervous. cutting out stuff like that in something as poorly written as this is just ... frightning.
00:05 asciilifeform json parser - crap
00:05 asciilifeform here's some unambiguous crap - ssl
00:06 mod6 who knows what effects can be seen.... and sure, i could spend 3 months with gdb just trying to chase stuff down. this is going to be a methodical process of eradication.
00:06 asciilifeform (not the ecdsa calls - well, them too, ought to be redone - but the https idiocy. needs to go.)
00:07 mircea_popescu asciilifeform how about this for a principle : step 1, take all the stuff that can be taken out without therefore forcing different stuff being put in ; step 2 take out the stuff that needs replacement, sorted by the complexity of the needed replacement, ascending.
00:07 asciilifeform that was my suggestion
00:07 asciilifeform from the start
00:07 mod6 you have some great ideas about changes that need to be made. and I really do think we'll get to doing them. bitcoin will be better for it.
00:07 mircea_popescu that means the json crap stays for now doesn't it ?
00:07 asciilifeform yes
00:07 asciilifeform notice i left it in
00:07 mircea_popescu yeah.
00:07 asciilifeform first - the skin warts. then the tumours.
00:08 mod6 see, im of the opinion that we don't cut out anything. first we add.
00:08 asciilifeform add what ?
00:08 mircea_popescu i'm the first to say that the only practicable way to run this is as a two machine, serial connected thing, so that's not changing.
00:08 mod6 we add patches from stuff up to 6.3
00:08 mircea_popescu oh he has a point. step 0 : merge the stuff that's acxtually useful in.
00:09 asciilifeform like what ?
00:09 mod6 then once we have our baseline... something that can be used, and we can feel pretty good about with not years worth of testing, then we start to implement these major changes. then we see the UI go away from core, the rpc commands, etc.
00:09 mircea_popescu even if it's the void set, still step 0.
00:09 mod6 we've dealt with it for 5 years, what's another 3-6 months?
00:09 * asciilifeform bored, wanders off to pet pet
00:09 * mircea_popescu has serious trouble thinking people have actually used the stock braindamage for more than a few month before branching it off
00:09 mod6 :(
00:10 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 49211 @ 0.000745 = 36.6622 BTC [+] {4}
00:10 mircea_popescu which is by now becoming a major problem in waiting, because under the hollow pretense of the power rangers, the codebase is actually fractured to all shit.
00:11 mod6 yeah, i think you're right that any place that actually gives a shit about the bitcoind they run, probably made their own changes immediately.
00:12 mod6 my philosophy on this project is: first, do no harm.
00:12 mod6 get us to a point where we can feel good about just what we're starting with.
00:13 mod6 once there, then start to schedule in the amputations.
00:22 mod6 <+mircea_popescu> even if it's the void set, still step 0. << so this totally could be a void set. but we'll certainly look at what changes are in here post v0.5.3->6.3 just to ensure that we don't miss anything (http://cascadianhacker.com/blog/2014/10/20_a-summary-of-changes-to-bitcoin-since-0321.html)
00:23 mod6 and if there is anything that's deemed "required", we'll be putting those things in. getting us to the baseline.

01:42 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: but why qr codes?
01:42 RagnarDanneskjol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWXsTaBoD7A
01:42 assbot Deap Vally - Gonna Make My Own Money - Official Video - YouTube
01:42 * asciilifeform waits for someone to say 'i keep all me coin in the iPnohe'
01:43 * asciilifeform doesn't see why qr code modem belongs in the already overcrowded rocket
01:45 mircea_popescu asciilifeform actually the qr code is a legitimate optoseparator
01:45 asciilifeform crappy separator
01:45 mircea_popescu there do exist qr reader guns with reasonably simple internals commonly available.
01:45 asciilifeform everyone in the room & across the street can see.
01:45 mircea_popescu why crappy ?
01:45 asciilifeform tempest.
01:46 mircea_popescu you can print just as well.
01:46 asciilifeform can.
01:46 asciilifeform really belongs as a piped apparatus though
01:47 mircea_popescu the advantage of this arrangement is that it can be made easily and inconspicuously.
01:47 * asciilifeform isn't thrilled with the encouragement of exposing privkeys to the atmosphere, so to speak, by trivial optical export
01:48 mircea_popescu nobody's encouraging it. as long as it's there, people gotta keep tempest going.
01:48 mircea_popescu this is expensive. let them.
01:48 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: you really think it's still done with a van full of knob-twiddling sp00kz0rz ?
01:49 mircea_popescu however it's done, it's still expensive and scales poorly.
01:49 asciilifeform done with automatics, usable by chimp, approx. the size of iPnohe (minus receiving horn)
01:49 mircea_popescu i've yet to capture one of those.
01:49 asciilifeform there's one flying not far from where i live.
01:49 mircea_popescu how much do you figure it cost ?
01:49 asciilifeform it was announced with some fanfare, too. (who has the balloon link?)
01:50 asciilifeform no idea what it costs, other than the fact usg can get as many of these as it likes.
01:51 asciilifeform back to qr codes per se: who builds the reader with no stateful internals?
01:52 asciilifeform every single one i've ripped open, had a micro
01:52 asciilifeform if going for optical, better keep it edisonian. as in, helically-inscribed 1d barcode.
01:52 mircea_popescu i guess.
01:52 asciilifeform then can read a la phonograph.
01:53 asciilifeform print - with ordinary printer.
01:54 * asciilifeform wonders if anyone has returned to paper tape
01:55 asciilifeform or if it will have to wait for mechanicoin.
01:56 asciilifeform and wai wat, who ever said tempest needs to scale.
01:57 asciilifeform there's maybe 10 worthwhile 'patients' alive.
01:57 asciilifeform and 3-5 of them are reading log here.
01:59 mircea_popescu you don't understand how bureaucracy works :)
01:59 asciilifeform tempest horn doesn't have to belong to the crown.

11:32 asciilifeform decimation: 'secure' bitcoin branch, as well as the dependencies << lol, read his faq! usg linux!
11:33 asciilifeform decimation: 0.5.3 UPNP - it's condemned to die, if that weren't obvious
11:34 asciilifeform 'never show anyone your public key' << 'in the game of chess you can never let your adversary see your pieces!' (zapf brannigan, 'futurama')
11:35 asciilifeform big advertisement for rectothermal cryptanalysts << i've seen worse. there's some fool driving around my town with '0DAY'.
11:41 mircea_popescu ;;isup qntra.net
11:41 gribble qntra.net is up
11:41 mircea_popescu aite then.
11:41 asciilifeform dead here
11:41 mircea_popescu yeah well as the dead bodies clear it should be ok.
11:41 decimation asciilifeform: it is somewhat mysterious why redhat doesn't want to adopt ecc crypto
11:42 asciilifeform decimation: chef could easily chop wrong carrot, might accidentally end up with the less-usg-flavoured kind
11:43 decimation at any rate, he has turds needed to compile arbitrary bitcoin
11:43 decimation not that they will be needed for long
11:43 asciilifeform so can anyone
11:43 asciilifeform this isn't really a mega-challenge
11:43 decimation no, it appears that even 0.5.3 compiles fine with reasonable version of openssl and bdb
11:43 asciilifeform but go and, say, diff his binary with yours.
11:44 decimation Somehow I still can't get your patch to match your manifest
11:44 asciilifeform match how?
11:44 decimation even something as simple as snipping out a few lines seems complicated
11:45 asciilifeform there were two manifests; one from stock tarball, one from just the necessaries (hand-deleted crud)
11:45 decimation well let's see. 6c5edfb92f95e7b8237170b1f9c197306060861cb32173bdf28d42ec0448ff57 wallet.cpp
11:45 asciilifeform both prior to patch
11:45 decimation that's what I get for post-patch wallet.cpp
11:45 asciilifeform i didn't submit a hash for post-patch!
11:45 asciilifeform lol
11:45 * asciilifeform imagined that unix patch util actually works, and that this were not necessary
11:50 mircea_popescu !up TheShrander
11:50 decimation I was confused, I thought you had a pre-patch and post patch manifest
11:50 decimation instead you had a pre-patch and pre-patch cut :)
11:53 decimation at any rate, I got it compiled and working, immediately began downloading blocks
11:54 decimation one item of note - it is amusing that the copyright notices suddenly changed from "Satoshi Nakamoto" to "The Bitcoin Developers"
11:54 decimation like, is that a legal entity?
11:54 asciilifeform decimation: the patch removed crap that was ifdef'd out anyway
11:54 decimation yeah I noted that
11:54 mircea_popescu decimation because that's how maggots become cattle owners.
11:54 mircea_popescu it's... their corpse, right ?
11:54 asciilifeform decimation: i haven't any idea what 'the bitcoin developers' are. presumably it's a mythical set that includes, even us.
11:54 decimation heh that's what I thought
11:54 mircea_popescu asciilifeform just like "us representatives" as a mythical set includes even you.
11:55 asciilifeform lelz
11:55 asciilifeform let's change that string to 'bitcoin maggots'
11:55 mircea_popescu let's just change it to what it originally was.
11:55 mircea_popescu kinda the point of the fucking reaction innit.
11:55 decimation yeah, I would revert it all to satoshi
11:56 * asciilifeform looks at 0.1
11:56 asciilifeform satoshi '09 ?
11:56 mircea_popescu then qntra can run a piece about how bitcoin foundation reverted a missatribution created by usgavin of the bitcoin scamdation, where it falsely attrivbuted bitcoin to an inexistent group instead of satoshi
11:56 decimation yep
11:57 asciilifeform sorta misleading, considering that the turdball presently under consideration isn't maggot-free
11:57 decimation yeah it's a bit early
11:58 decimation but I like the sentiment
11:58 mircea_popescu yeah not yet, just, best way to publicly announce this.
11:59 decimation asciilifeform: did you see this http://cryptome.org/2014/10/3-us-section.pdf
11:59 decimation an interesting history of the real details of how comint was shared by the allies
12:02 decimation Hut-3 and 3-US was the US liason hut at Bletchley Park:
12:02 decimation "Much that went on in 3-US was not properly the business of Hut 3. Such questions, for example, as which individuals at American commands should be entitled to have access to Ultra, or what action should be taken on violations of security regulations at American commands-questions which on the British side were handled at Broadway Buildings-were normally handled in 3-US."
12:03 decimation so basically there was a whole pile of people who appeared-to-be-in-charge who were not, and security was effective because a small number were involved

13:00 HeySteve nope
13:00 mircea_popescu yes it is.
13:01 HeySteve heh ok fine
13:01 HeySteve things here are still ok, if you don't turn on the news
13:01 mircea_popescu o were you trying to get out ?
13:02 HeySteve I can leave to Canada or EU any time but committed to some projects here for a while
13:02 HeySteve but yeah, that's the long term plan
13:02 mircea_popescu aha
13:04 HeySteve so I'm guessing if Gavin forks the chain, you'll be sticking with the tried and true?
13:04 mircea_popescu the reaction is the reaction for not being revolutionary, after all.
13:05 mircea_popescu anyway, what i do is the lesser part. the best thing gavin & co could do is fork themselves outside of this project.
13:06 mircea_popescu simply leaving would be about as big a deal, but not nearly as lolproductive.
13:06 HeySteve if what they do is as bad as all that, perhaps satoshi will break radio silence again
13:06 mircea_popescu ain't happening.
13:06 Duffer1 again? what'd i miss?
13:07 HeySteve hmm but if they compromise it somehow, he could squelch them with three words, like dorian story

13:34 Mikayla yip
13:34 Mikayla haha
13:35 mircea_popescu HeySteve mod6 Mikayla i dunno, i kinda feel bad for the bankers.
13:35 mircea_popescu their "crimes" are entirely based on rules the government had no authority to make, and certainly has no authority to enforce.
13:36 mircea_popescu they're just middleaged pencilnecks being bullied, essentially.
13:36 Mikayla just the nail gun is suspect
13:36 Mikayla why not gas yourself in your car?
13:36 mircea_popescu Mikayla speaking of mob attack vibes, what's the situation there like, for a hot white gal ?
13:36 mircea_popescu to judge by the media reports it's nothing but a rapefest.

13:49 mircea_popescu the question as to exactly *how* assbot removes her voice is left as an exercise to the onanist.
13:49 Mikayla he doesn't like my boobages
13:49 mircea_popescu Mikayla get a wot account, i'll rate you, then you can self-voice and it be permanent.
13:50 mircea_popescu lol well you do have perhaps the worst potato of a camera.
13:50 Mikayla hush :/
13:50 Mikayla It's the energy saving bulbs
13:50 mircea_popescu bulbous energy savings.
13:50 PinkPosixPXE Hope you can stay safe Mikayla, that sounds scary. Electric gate seem like a good idea, and dogs are great protectors, or at the very least alarm systems :). I should look into an electric gate, I want to setup a few security cams soon as well (despite living in a safe neighborhood, in my opinion, no where is truly safe).
13:51 undata portland is filled with zombie bums on meth
13:51 undata hence, weapons
13:51 mircea_popescu PinkPosixPXE no, here it's safe.
13:52 undata I got my first gun after being mugged in Houston
13:52 mircea_popescu so if someone tries it again you gonna smoke the mofo ?
13:53 PinkPosixPXE I do own a glock 19, and have a concealed carry permit, but I'd like to prevent intruders from even bothering, before facing the alternative...
13:53 Mikayla it's illegal to shoot someone here though
13:53 Mikayla no idea why then guns are even allowed?
13:53 PinkPosixPXE Yea, I imagine the gun laws are much different
13:53 undata mircea_popescu: it would have to escalate severely for me to consider it
13:53 Mikayla I don't even think you're allowed a gun in public
13:54 Mikayla I know it needs to be locked in a gun safe
13:54 mircea_popescu weird, i thought the boers were all about gun slingin'.
13:54 Mikayla "Please mister Robber. Wait a bit white I unlock my safe to get my gun"
13:54 undata it's not as though I'd take joy in blowing some mentally ill guy away
13:54 PinkPosixPXE yea, they'll hold the gun straight to your head, but you better keep yours in a safe so you are a 'law abiding citizen'
13:54 Mikayla I'd shoot someone in my home who planned to make me statistic
13:54 undata that's bullshit
13:55 mircea_popescu undata my perhaps overstated point being that unless you're ready to shoot you don't really have much use for a gun.
13:55 Mikayla LOL
13:55 Mikayla exactly
13:55 undata mircea_popescu: reach into bag, pull out?
13:55 mircea_popescu and be fed it ?
13:55 undata I tend to have a laptop on me
13:55 mircea_popescu guns aren't really for showing.
13:55 Mikayla they're meant for shooting
13:55 Mikayla which sounds so redundant
13:55 undata but I moved from Houston; Portland's less about mugging and more about the odd home invasion
13:56 mircea_popescu Mikayla an' boots are made for walkin' ?
13:56 Mikayla haha
13:56 Mikayla I actually love boots
13:56 mircea_popescu i have yet to meet a girl with big tits that hates boots.
13:56 undata mircea_popescu: inside the house it'd take me about 5sec to be ready
13:56 Mikayla think it's a standard?
13:57 mircea_popescu i dunno, coincidence, rule of the universe, something in between...
13:57 Mikayla heh
13:57 mircea_popescu undata granted, against a home invasion it's a good play.
13:57 mircea_popescu on the street tho... dubious at best.
13:57 PinkPosixPXE In CCW training they really push the practice of grabbing your firearm as quickly as possible, and defending yourself as need be. Always keeping it in a specific spot most convenient for easy access.. etc.. just depends on the situation though.. Home vs. My car on the bad side of town..
13:57 Mikayla other bit of security is that I don't go outside at night
13:58 undata mircea_popescu: maybe when the US falls apart I can just strap it
13:58 PinkPosixPXE They also go over all the legalities, and what you have to truly consider, and understand comes with using your weapon, or even pulling it out/unholstering it.
13:58 mircea_popescu Mikayla do you go outside naked ?
13:58 Mikayla I just take shitty webcam photos
13:58 Mikayla *lol*
13:58 undata but no, the streets aren't dangerous enough here to need that
13:58 Mikayla It doesn't matter what a person goes out in
13:58 Mikayla you're a target
13:59 Mikayla found a man hidding in the bush once
13:59 Mikayla a guy was with me and we were talking outside a neighbours home in a car
13:59 Mikayla and he kept saying there's a man in that bush
13:59 Mikayla it was a bush on a wall feature outside a gate

14:00 Mikayla phoned the police. A year later they're yet to show up.
14:00 Mikayla I'm sure it's not illegal for my dog to kill a man in my yard though?
14:00 Mikayla ;)
14:00 Mikayla everything has a loop hole
14:01 mircea_popescu it probably is, yeh
14:01 Mikayla naaaaaah
14:01 Mikayla I'll take my chances
14:03 undata first thing after the revolution, some goddamn sovereignty over one's personal property
14:04 undata Mikayla: sorry, the state obligates you to protect that man! he's just sick.
14:04 Mikayla nah well the dog can't be legally punished
14:05 Mikayla I think it is a loophole
14:05 Mikayla they won't ask me to put my dog down who attacked a man in my property
14:05 mircea_popescu hm
14:05 Mikayla I win?
14:06 mircea_popescu mebbe you do, iu have no idea what the law's like there.
14:06 Mikayla you can't kill someone no matter what they do sort of law
14:07 Mikayla you're meant to injure them
14:07 mircea_popescu well honestly, if someone tried to mug me i'd rather shoot them in the shoulder than kill them.
14:08 mircea_popescu if particularly obnoxious, shoot out each knee, then each hip, then each shoulder, then call them an ambulance.
14:08 Mikayla the thing is they don't just mug you here
14:08 mircea_popescu about even odds they ever mug anyone again, depending if they carry insurance.
14:09 mircea_popescu Mikayla hence "<mircea_popescu> Mikayla speaking of mob attack vibes, what's the situation there like, for a hot white gal ? to judge by the media reports it's nothing but a rapefest."
14:09 Mikayla without dampening the mood here. There was a girl, around 16, gang raped by men and a broken beer bottle....
14:09 Mikayla I'll take my chances of my dog killing the person
14:09 mircea_popescu well, but is it mostly factual or mostly media hysteria is what i want to know
14:09 Mikayla the media reports very poorly
14:09 mircea_popescu so how do you knoiw about this girl ?
14:10 Mikayla arrest rate it poor
14:10 Mikayla and a person doesn't stay in prison very long - one of the reasons being the prisons are too full

14:11 undata man... I am all for the revolutionary terror of women killing attempted rapists
14:11 mircea_popescu undata women suck at killing men.
14:11 Mikayla news - she was mentioned quite a lot in the news due to the disgusting nature of how she died and how long it took the find the culprits
14:11 mircea_popescu Mikayla but do you see my point ?
14:11 undata mircea_popescu: I sort of want to ask "why did no one escort her if it's that dangerous?"
14:12 undata in most circles I think that labels me a sexist?
14:12 Mikayla it's unfair to be chaperoned every where you go
14:12 Mikayla and it isn't always easy
14:12 mircea_popescu well, depends if she's the dependent sort of woman that lives as property of men or the independent sort that does not. for the latter your idea is scarcely a solution.
14:12 Mikayla I've had to walk to buy electricity at night once
14:12 Mikayla life happens
14:12 PinkPosixPXE yea.. you can't always setup ideal situations
14:12 Mikayla Only had one attack on me in the street and I was 17 then
14:13 mircea_popescu Mikayla so what happened ?
14:13 undata mircea_popescu | undata women suck at killing men. << in a violent society, what's to be done about this fact?
14:13 Mikayla some old homeless guy grabbed me
14:13 Mikayla ok wait - twice.
14:13 mircea_popescu undata nothing. a violent society forces women into dependent roles willy-nilly.
14:13 undata not saying lets all convert to Islam; my lady walks around Portland herself just fine
14:13 Mikayla first time 16 and the homeless guy tried to make out with me
14:14 Mikayla it's unfair a person must live like they're in a prison
14:14 Mikayla everyone has a right to freedome
14:14 mircea_popescu Mikayla you know, the weird thing they do here, is try to kiss girls. just like that, randomly. cause this is romanticised, and so...
14:14 mircea_popescu Mikayla everyone has the right to the freedom they actually want.
14:14 undata ^^^
14:15 Mikayla it's not like a person goes and walks in the street at night because they're bored
14:15 PinkPosixPXE I worked at a datacenter, on graveyards for a while, in a rough part of town, and had to walk 3 blocks in the ghetto to a parking garage every night... I had a few scary encounters, and ended up carrying a stun gun at that point. The security gaurds could escort you only so far off the property too, so you just had to be on gaurd..
14:15 mircea_popescu course the bitch of all time is that young women are exactly at an age when they're simultaneously a) unclear as to what they actually want and b) attractive. pretty much everyting about living things is made out of bottlenecks like that.
14:16 Mikayla my fear of a weapon like a stun gun is that it gets used on me
14:16 mircea_popescu Mikayla well, strong muscular contractions. sex toy basically.
14:16 Mikayla lol
14:16 undata haha oh dear
14:16 mircea_popescu it is.
14:16 Mikayla gosh reminding me of a movie :(
14:16 Mikayla um...
14:16 Mikayla I spit on your grave 2
14:16 PinkPosixPXE Yea, any weapon you carry can be used against you, it's an important thing to be mindful of, that's where the training to use it, and learn some self defense tactics comes in.
14:16 mircea_popescu undata what do you thing slavegirls wear dog collars for :D
14:17 Mikayla at least with a gun the first shot has a major impact and quick
14:17 undata mircea_popescu: in the case of the stun gun, you might get a little zap yourself
14:17 PinkPosixPXE I'm very small, so someone's always going to have a natural advantage, strength wise.
14:17 Mikayla oh I'm tiny
14:17 mircea_popescu undata rapists these days use condoms.
14:17 Mikayla 5'3"
14:17 Mikayla not here...
14:17 undata mircea_popescu: man, progress everywhere...
14:17 Mikayla gosh. I'm going to really warp your minds if I continue....
14:18 mircea_popescu no hon, teh minds are well warped.
14:18 mircea_popescu im taking credit for that one.
14:18 Mikayla here it's a norm to rape a 3 day old baby :( the person doesn't even care what disease they have :(
14:18 mircea_popescu Mikayla what's norm mean ? like, every 3yo you know got raped ?
14:18 PinkPosixPXE 4'11 :/ .. Yea, I'm already a little overly paranoid, I think it's wise to be so Mikayla, so good for you..
14:19 Mikayla But I am a volunteer at the voting stations so hopefully it'll change
14:19 mircea_popescu wait.
14:19 mircea_popescu wait a second.
14:19 mircea_popescu PinkPosixPXE you're FOUR FEET ?!
14:19 mircea_popescu !up Mikayla
14:19 Mikayla ta
14:19 Mikayla mircea_popescu it happens A LOT
14:19 PinkPosixPXE 4 feet, 11 inches
14:19 undata Mikayla: this is a poor black superstition thing right?
14:19 undata this is what's not being mentioned
14:19 mircea_popescu PinkPosixPXE so truly a pixie!
14:19 Mikayla undata different reasons. Some believe having sex with a virgin cures age
14:19 mircea_popescu Mikayla yes but what's a lot mean.
14:20 mircea_popescu having sex with a virgin does not cure age.
14:20 Mikayla mircea_popescu a baby is raped or killed every 3 seconds in Africa
14:20 mircea_popescu having sex with a teenager cures age. and she'd better not be a virgin.
14:20 Mikayla ugh
14:20 mircea_popescu Mikayla according to the news ?
14:20 undata Mikayla: holy fucking statistic
14:20 Mikayla shuddering
14:20 Mikayla change of topic
14:20 Mikayla mircea_popescu statistics
14:20 undata Mikayla: govt ones?
14:20 mircea_popescu published by whom ?
14:21 Mikayla mircea_popescu reported crimes
14:21 Mikayla nevermind those not reported...
14:21 mircea_popescu to make perfectly clear, my issue here is this : if one knows (from the news) that a) X event happens and b) (the news) isn't reporting it frequently enough and c) )(other parties) aren't taking enough action,
14:21 Mikayla "The rate of sexual violence in South Africa is among the highest in the world. Sexual violence is the use of force or manipulation to get someone to engage in unwanted sexual activity without his or her consent.[1] An estimated of 500,000 rape cases take place in the country, every year.["
14:21 mircea_popescu this situation could be indicative of X not actually happening.
14:21 Mikayla that's reported - which many aren't
14:21 PinkPosixPXE mircea_popescu: yea, hehe, that's sort of how the nick evolved. Friends call me a variety of things like 'tinkerbell' etc.
14:21 mircea_popescu Mikayla "an estimated" is not "a reported".
14:22 undata it is true; it's important to avoid hysteria
14:22 Mikayla they go on police reported numbers
14:22 Mikayla I've been on the police website and seen the increases
14:22 Mikayla it goes into multiple 100%'s a year
14:22 mircea_popescu now, i know about this hysteria first hand, because some of the safest places i;'ve ever been in are convinced hteir problem is "security"
14:22 mircea_popescu whereas utter shitholes like mexico think everything's mostly fine and dandy
14:22 Mikayla South Africa is not safe
14:22 mircea_popescu i've never been. fluffypony seems to think it's ok.
14:22 Mikayla I know Mexico is big on taking someone for ransom
14:22 mircea_popescu you seem to think it's not.
14:23 fluffypony Mikayla: South Africa is great
14:23 mircea_popescu the media is... well... a shitpile, as per usual. what's a guy to do to find out ?
14:23 Mikayla here you get abused. raped. sodomised. killed. and they steal your phone.
14:23 fluffypony plus I live there
14:23 mircea_popescu i bet all the "sodomised!!!" news items make it hard to get butt from one's gf.
14:23 Mikayla fluffypony but to do so much to someone just to rob them?
14:23 Mikayla even if they're 60?
14:23 Mikayla lol mircea_popescu
14:24 decimation Mikayla: if it suck so bad, why not go to another country not full of child rapists
14:24 Mikayla serious need a happier topic
14:24 PinkPosixPXE yea, I'm terrified of Mexico, despite people I know who still will vacation there. No thanks, I don't need to take the risk.
14:24 Mikayla decimation I'm trying to help to change it
14:24 decimation like new zealand
14:24 mircea_popescu PinkPosixPXE only place where you can actually buy the head of the chief of police.
14:24 decimation lol
14:24 Mikayla or australia? lol
14:25 mircea_popescu australia sucks
14:25 mircea_popescu besides, cazalla's from there.

14:25 undata govts will just let the place burn
14:25 decimation like, you are going to live in your locked mansion and fear the populace while you change them?
14:25 mircea_popescu and militias won't ?!
14:25 undata mircea_popescu: yes, militias tend to be drawn from the locale
14:25 mircea_popescu you're at least naive.
14:25 mircea_popescu pro tip : yugoslav wars were militias.
14:26 Mikayla decimation I am a volunteer at multiple charity organisations and I'm a volunteer for the voting stations to stop corruption
14:26 Mikayla A girl can have hope.
14:26 mircea_popescu a volunteer girl huh.
14:26 Mikayla we're not zimbabwe... yet. ;)
14:26 mircea_popescu someone get this chick a well paid job already.
14:26 decimation maybe only 60% of the vote will go to the anc?
14:26 Mikayla LOL
14:26 decimation you might as well hope to push a lorry up a mountain
14:26 Mikayla decimation they are declining in their voting numbers - even though they cheat
14:27 mircea_popescu fluffypony give her something to do so she can save enough to visit me!
14:27 mircea_popescu i trust you, because you're married.

14:28 HeySteve anyway I'm out have a good evening all
14:28 fluffypony HeySteve:-P
14:28 undata mircea_popescu: how developed was yugoslavia at the time? what other factors (economic, social) were involved?
14:28 Mikayla lol mircea_popescu
14:28 Mikayla I'm talking like a "cape coloured"
14:28 mircea_popescu undata the most developed warsaw pact country.
14:28 Mikayla neeeeigh aka no
14:29 undata mircea_popescu: in the wake of a collapse wouldn't there be warfare to be expected?
14:29 Mikayla I like Plett but I bet christmas time it's too full for a normal citizen
14:29 mircea_popescu undata the following factor is involved : me and a buddy will kick your ass. you and four buddies will kick our ass. the 100 man militia kicks the 50 man militia, right or wrong.
14:29 fluffypony Mikayla: listen, man, PE is a bit of a dead zone, maar jy kan ook kaap toe
14:29 undata mircea_popescu: in a time of fracture I'd expect that anyway though
14:29 mircea_popescu soon enough the militias are making armies and withdrawing from towns for pure strategic reasons.
14:29 undata yeah I see your point
14:29 Mikayla fluffypony ya no... we're become a major fuck up... lol. You're DA territory so it's different
14:30 mircea_popescu right ? so, no. the problem isn't govt being deliberately evil.
14:30 mircea_popescu the problem is that the worlkd is made so the weak get raped
14:30 fluffypony Mikayla: yisssss, we're borderline Eastern Cape tho :-P
14:30 mircea_popescu fucking point of life, that's how we're even here in the first place.
14:30 fluffypony Bitou Municipality ftw!
14:30 Mikayla fluffypony pretty much. Haha. You're like the Mexico of America. lol
14:30 undata mircea_popescu: so then... why would I want the social groups closest to me to be weak?
14:30 Mikayla is it called Bitou? LOL
14:30 mircea_popescu undata well, depends what you like.
14:30 fluffypony yup
14:30 fluffypony we're that cool
14:31 Mikayla it sounds like a torrent app. lol
14:31 fluffypony "where are you?" "BITOU, my ou"
14:31 undata mircea_popescu: I want my private property, my family, and my friends to be protected.
14:31 Mikayla fluffypony sjoe... super flow... lol
14:31 mircea_popescu <Duffer1> asks where she lives << you know nine out of ten people enjoy a gangbang.
14:31 fluffypony lol
14:31 fluffypony net so
14:31 Mikayla oh I missed that
14:31 Mikayla fluffypony - you're not allowed to gang bang me.
14:31 undata and I want a piece of dirt big enough to contain all of those
14:31 Mikayla by no circumstances!
14:31 undata and the right to defend that smallish rectangle of dirt
14:32 fluffypony my wife and I would never allow that, so you're all good
14:32 undata other than that, let whatever powers that be do their thing.
14:32 Mikayla cool
14:32 mircea_popescu undata well sure, and i want to sprout sandalwood.
14:32 undata mircea_popescu: the above is in no way fanciful.
14:33 mircea_popescu by what standard ?
14:33 undata mircea_popescu: I've told you what I want; you tell me why I can't have it.
14:34 mircea_popescu because you've defined what you want using undefined functions.
14:34 mircea_popescu use the api as is, not the api as you think it should be.
14:34 chetty cheat, works for me
14:35 mircea_popescu yeah, works for as long as it does.
14:35 undata mircea_popescu: given "otherwise let the powers that be do their thing", I can likely implement the above in any moderately stable state
14:35 mircea_popescu fluffypony Mikayla for my own trivia file, what's "da territory" ?
14:35 undata give them their paper, sign their stupid documents
14:35 undata and otherwise, big fence, you're not coming in
14:35 mircea_popescu undata no, but you can give yourself a passible illusion that you have.
14:36 decimation I guess white folk in za have already been strongly selected, those who think there's no hope have already left.
14:36 Mikayla hey?
14:36 fluffypony da territory?
14:36 fluffypony never heard of it
14:36 mircea_popescu <Mikayla> fluffypony ya no... we're become a major fuck up... lol. You're DA territory so it's different <<
14:36 fluffypony OH
14:36 Mikayla haha!
14:36 fluffypony lol
14:36 Mikayla Democratic Alliance
14:36 fluffypony DA = Democratic Alliance
14:36 Mikayla poltical party
14:36 Mikayla the best. But not where I am.
14:36 undata mircea_popescu: what higher freedom than being unpestered for a bit exists?
14:37 mircea_popescu none.
14:37 Mikayla I sounded kinda gang
14:37 Mikayla gangsta
14:37 undata mircea_popescu: well... that's all I'm after.
14:37 mircea_popescu undata higher level results are hard on low level machines :)
14:37 Mikayla I feel super hard core.
14:37 * Mikayla flexes
14:37 undata mircea_popescu: we all die in the end anyway
14:37 decimation sun just farted an X1.0 class flare
14:37 chetty <undata> mircea_popescu: what higher freedom than being unpestered for a bit exists?
14:37 chetty <mircea_popescu> none.//doing the pestering
14:38 Mikayla night time here
14:38 undata I have no desire to be the glorious leader.
14:38 mircea_popescu that's not freedom, that's enjoyment :D
14:38 undata I just want to build things.
14:38 undata maybe the glorious leader can benefit from my unpestered creativity and we can come to some arrangement
14:39 decimation or maybe he will convert you to bio-diesel
14:39 undata and maybe the sun will engulf the earth
14:39 undata living in fear is being dead already
14:40 mircea_popescu undata but you see why you can't have them, right ?
14:40 mircea_popescu not saying you shouldn't want em, but still.
14:41 undata mircea_popescu: maybe wanting them is one half of a dynamic system
14:42 mircea_popescu !up Mikayla
14:42 Mikayla wow that was a long hiccup
14:42 Mikayla thanks Hellkom.
14:42 undata I'm trying to find whether it's true that Hitler was going to kill his rocket scientists.
14:42 mircea_popescu nah.
14:43 undata mircea_popescu: seems propaganda
14:43 mircea_popescu stalin did kill his army generals toh.
14:43 Mikayla he was pretty sick in the head
14:43 Mikayla I wouldn't put anything past Hitel
14:43 Mikayla Hitler*
14:43 Mikayla But I have a major respect for him on how he collected such a large following
14:43 undata if it were true, it'd be a great example of power over sense
14:43 Mikayla not being a good speaker he still had a crowd begging to hear him
14:43 mircea_popescu Mikayla especially women.
14:44 mircea_popescu "Thanks for continuously debunking modern myths." <<< ahh makes me all warm inside. for what else is the scholar, if not the mythbuster.
14:44 undata the short term benefit of enemies not learning the same rocketry secrets trumping the long term benefit of.... more fucking rockets
14:46 undata and oh, causing your remaining engineers to go crazy.
14:47 Mikayla [20:46] [Mikayla PING reply]: 49secs
14:47 Mikayla -
14:47 Mikayla sjoe
14:47 Mikayla my internets are sucking tonight
14:49 undata there's a greater gulf between feared and feared-and-loved than most leaders seem to know
14:50 mircea_popescu undata kinda the difference between friendzone and sex slave.
14:50 Mikayla heh
14:50 undata haha
14:53 undata mircea_popescu: oh, in your definition is the "need to belong" reciprocal?
14:53 undata I thought about that after the conversation. Particularly, what happens when you reach the top?
14:53 mircea_popescu definition of which ?
14:53 undata we were talking about the inherent need for humans to belong, i.e. slavery
14:54 mircea_popescu from the joys of debugging c : "I got a print in the middle of a loop and I discover it loops half the time returning pointers and half actual data"
14:55 mircea_popescu undata ah ah. well, it's unclear. i think for most people at the top of their pyramid it's abstracted one way or the other.
14:55 undata mircea_popescu: "belongs to God" "the cause" something?
14:55 mircea_popescu if it becomes bijective the whole thing's condemned to ruin.
14:55 mircea_popescu kinda why hereditary systems do not work, ever. while the founder can not give a shit about his crown,
14:56 mircea_popescu his son is born as the son of the guy wioth the crown, and it can never can become quite the "whatever!" thing for him.
14:56 mircea_popescu undata well, words fail.
15:02 undata mircea_popescu: the semi-formed thought is that not belonging might be the cost
15:02 undata still thinking about it
15:02 Mikayla I have never been so thirsty in my life
15:02 Mikayla gosh.
15:03 Mikayla being hungover sucks
15:03 Mikayla why is alcohol the one thing a person nevers learns from?
15:03 mircea_popescu only if you drink crap alcohol.
15:03 mircea_popescu spoend the night drinking romanian plum distilate, the hangover's a pleasure.
15:03 Mikayla gosh I think it was the combination
15:04 mircea_popescu the roofies ?
15:04 undata mircea_popescu: is plum liquor as delicious as it sounds?
15:04 Mikayla well I am a woman and I was in a gay bar so I don't think that was the case
15:04 Mikayla lol
15:04 mircea_popescu undata tuica ? yes.
15:05 undata I wonder if they have that here
15:07 mircea_popescu gotta be the actual stuff tho.
15:07 mircea_popescu not just crapola generic alcohol with a label aded as they still do in the us.
15:11 bounce dunno 'bout dem gayse. mebbe dey serve roofies standard dere, yanno.
15:11 bounce though the standard fix for hangover is to just drink lots of water before going to bed.
15:12 mircea_popescu well actually cabbage juice is the best fix.
15:13 mircea_popescu but yeah, water helps a lot.
15:13 undata also gorging on food
15:13 undata before bed
15:13 undata there's this poutine cart here that's a good 3am last stop
15:22 Adlai bounce: better yet, alternate alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks
15:23 Adlai even better, instead of water, drink water with ice + lemon, people think you're drinking twice as much alcohol and you can act twice as drunk
15:24 mircea_popescu what is this, "how to drink like a girl" ?
15:25 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 11200 @ 0.0007869 = 8.8133 BTC [-]
15:27 * asciilifeform reading logs, misread 'public key' as 'pubic key'
15:27 kakobrekla are you complaining about the font ?
15:28 asciilifeform font lol no
15:28 * asciilifeform runs local fonts
15:28 Adlai indeed i do drink like a girl, i usually regret not doing so
15:29 undata Adlai: just drink your fill, don't put on a show
15:29 undata who gives a shit how much you drink
15:29 mircea_popescu undata the guy trying to get you drunk ?
15:29 undata is Adlai a girl?
15:29 mircea_popescu the border is ever blurring.
15:29 Adlai well, alternating drinks takes most of the bite out of the hangover, and gives the opportunity for a show
15:30 * Adlai is not a girl
15:30 mircea_popescu nttiawwt ?
15:31 Adlai wutwutwut?
15:31 undata farming cred with shirley temples
15:31 undata lol
15:31 mircea_popescu ;;ud nttiawwt
15:31 gribble http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=NTTIAWWT | Jan 13, 2008 ... An acronym for "not that there is anything wrong with that".
15:32 Adlai there's wishes and then there's fact
15:32 mircea_popescu wait, you WISH you were a girl ?
15:32 mircea_popescu isn't that like... even worse than actually being a girl ?
15:32 Adlai not often enough to care much tbh
15:32 mircea_popescu well i guess yo uat least don't wish you were a pony LIKE SOME PEOPLE
15:33 Adlai being a dolphin would be sweeeet though
15:33 mircea_popescu cause of the two foot schlong ?
15:33 Adlai i'd name myself x!dlai
15:33 * asciilifeform would rather be the sandworm from 'dune' - does that count...?
15:33 Adlai sure
15:34 ben_vulpes ;;google fuck you i'm a dragon

15:34 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: sandworm or god emperor?
15:34 mircea_popescu isn't the sandworm from dune essentially an animated shit ?
15:34 Adlai iirc it's the eventual evolution of other sandworms' shit, through little worms, to big worms
15:35 mircea_popescu speaking of which, http://41.media.tumblr.com/484899cddebfa764e3ab09c49e94c3ff/tumblr_n4wvcvz67S1stazr1o1_500.jpg
15:35 asciilifeform but hey, with style.
15:35 asciilifeform and substance.
15:36 mircea_popescu i thought it was mostly size.
15:37 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: women suck at killing men << elaborate. doesn't the invention of light small arms sorta even the odds ?
15:38 mircea_popescu nope.
15:38 cazalla danielpbarron: cazalla, might be news or something: https://twitter.com/jja0/status/525873770188128256 <<< those have been around a while now
15:38 assbot I just funded my absolutely GORGEOUS /hashtag/kialara?src=hash cold storage /hashtag/bitcoin?src=hash token! https://t.co/1hi8mpUgpP http://t.co/y00aQO2Tws
15:38 mircea_popescu i dunno, maybe it's the fact that women actually know how much fucking energy goes into making men, and don't so well manage to ignore it. or because they're emotionally clingy. or simply because that's how genders are hardcoded.
15:38 asciilifeform lemme guess, they neglect target practice, maintenance, etc ?
15:38 mircea_popescu but in any case, men tend to hurt women and women can't really get themselves to kill me.
15:38 asciilifeform hm
15:39 mircea_popescu to quote an ancient song,

15:51 Adlai why does the damn thing say "blockchain.info" though >_<
15:51 asciilifeform how they could limit the balance << obvious! they watch the addr, if it's over limit - they pump out the excess, using privkey

16:52 TheNewDeal in reference to the talk about nail guns before, they would definitely be useful as a weapon for inflicting fatal wounds, and they can be purchased at your local hardware store. my opinion
16:52 asciilifeform nubbins` et al can easily answer questions like that on his own

16:52 nubbins` too true :/
16:53 jurov give them microscopes!
16:53 undata maybe paper wallets provided there's anywhere to spend one in person (there isn't)
16:54 nubbins` that's actually not bad, only ~425 pages
16:54 cazalla TheNewDeal, you know that's not even an option here for if you used it on an intruder, you would need to explain "legitimate use" for keeping a nailgun next to your bed or in bedroom
16:54 asciilifeform nubbins`: most of that crud really does not belong on a printed page.
16:54 nubbins` budgeting 60 lines per page as a rough guide
16:54 nubbins` nod
16:54 TheNewDeal that's not what the talk was about
16:54 asciilifeform cazalla: nailgun does not have a barrel in the usual sense.
16:54 undata TheNewDeal: sure fatal wounds but if you're offing yourself, aren't there quicker ways?
16:54 undata nailgun seems like a good way to bleed out slowly
16:54 TheNewDeal it was speculation on a banker killing himself with a nail gun
16:54 asciilifeform not really useful other than against self or a hogtied 'client'
16:55 nubbins` cazalla so rip a hole in your wall
16:55 TheNewDeal nubbins` so practical...

16:55 undata and that was with a railroad spike
16:55 TheNewDeal you could shoot yourself in the head and end up like gage too
16:55 TheNewDeal but is it likely
16:56 asciilifeform there's a moderately-well-documented case of a (small caliber) pistol lobotomy.
16:56 undata asciilifeform: my stepdad used to fly medevac helicopters, saw more than a couple botched suicides that merely blew off the person's face
16:57 asciilifeform ah those are SOP
16:57 jurov SOP lmao
16:57 asciilifeform afaik, normally poor shotgun technique
16:57 TheNewDeal i've seen a guy who did it with a shotgun (many years after)
16:58 TheNewDeal but if you're going to play russian roulette and hope to come out alive, good luck with your odds
16:58 asciilifeform TheNewDeal: ever see 'nagant' revolver? the item 'russian roulette' was originally played with.
16:58 undata haha, "russian roulette at shotgun odds" << I will use this to describe a fucked situation later.
16:59 asciilifeform TheNewDeal: they're reasonably common in usa. the revelation: one could cheat.
16:59 TheNewDeal negatron, not a gun nut
16:59 asciilifeform the way it was built, the ratchet was not engaged when drum was spinning. a single round would settle to the bottom (opposite of barrel line.)
17:00 asciilifeform so folks would play (on a bet, naturally) with opponent who did not know this.
17:00 asciilifeform 1890s design.
17:01 asciilifeform the 'correct' (honest) way to play was to pull trigger while spinning.
17:02 TheNewDeal was more of a euphemism, not meant to be literal
17:02 asciilifeform i tell this story because english speakers invariably speak of 'russian roulette' without knowing this tidbit.
17:02 TheNewDeal true, did not know the story
17:03 TheNewDeal but seriously, suicide rates would probably go up if people switched from shotgun to nail gun
17:03 asciilifeform another game, invented by the same folks who brought us 'russian roulette' (imperial-era cavalry officers, bored out of their skulls) was called 'cuckoo'
17:03 asciilifeform two men in an entirely dark room, with nagants, take turns calling out 'cuckoo'
17:03 asciilifeform opponent fires at sound.
17:04 TheNewDeal oooo this game looks like a good drinking game
17:04 TheNewDeal oh
17:04 TheNewDeal looking at some different card game
17:04 undata this fits with my perception of russia perfectly
17:04 undata hahaha
17:05 kakobrekla "drinking game" - never understood this concept.
17:05 asciilifeform kakobrekla: the only 'drinking game' that ever made sense to me was the chess set with the hollow pieces
17:05 asciilifeform capture piece, must drink it

17:22 jurov you want to hardwire /dev/tty0 to the implementation?
17:22 asciilifeform who said hardwire
17:22 jurov er.. /dev/ttyS0
17:22 asciilifeform just include as config
17:22 asciilifeform idiots who want to eat from toilet bowl, can loopback the thing into a tx gen on same box.
17:23 asciilifeform there's your mechanism, there.
17:23 asciilifeform no need for fancy contortions like unix-sockets
17:23 jurov i'd prefer another trivial piece that relays between unix socket and ttyS0 or qr reader or whatever
17:24 asciilifeform why not just have the daemon (nonblocking) listen on /dev/ttyxxx (virtual) ?
17:24 jurov or if exclusively one client is wanted, then just pass pipe file descriptor
17:25 jurov ok, i have no problem with pty either

17:25 asciilifeform this, among other reasons, is why to junk win32 port

17:41 nubbins` stacks of cards everywhere

18:02 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: http://cascadianhacker.com/rm_rf_upnp.tar.gz << am i doing it correctly?
18:03 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: there's a whole lot more upnp in there
18:03 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: point is not to simply disable flag, but to whittle down the turd bitwise
18:04 jurov is everyone okay with the mailinglist being on therealbitcoin.org domain?
18:04 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: string 'pnp' shouldn't occur in the resulting tree
18:04 asciilifeform jurov: why not
18:04 ben_vulpes ah.
18:05 asciilifeform jurov: my suggestion was to have a plain-text view of the list (incl. patches that passed magic sig) visible there.
18:05 asciilifeform perhaps with the name of the submitter parse out and diplayed conveniently
18:05 asciilifeform ('table' tag?)
18:06 asciilifeform if patch was signed by > 1 person - their name(s) too.
18:06 asciilifeform display, is, naturally, not a substitute for checking sigs on own box!
18:06 jurov i'm doing standard mailman archives
18:07 ben_vulpes jurov: i'd love to see it at f9beb4d9.org
18:07 jurov what's that?
18:07 ben_vulpes the network magic bytes for mainnet
18:08 ben_vulpes perhaps too obscure
18:09 ben_vulpes if only mircea_popescu were still giving away domains...
18:09 asciilifeform i'd throw it in 'nosuchlabs.com' but the turd lathe undertaking isn't really mine.
18:10 ben_vulpes doesn't matter.
18:10 ben_vulpes wherever's clever.
18:14 asciilifeform jurov: how are you handling detached gpg sigs in mailman ?
18:14 decimation jurov do you want my xbtfoundation.org?
18:14 jurov at first only this https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/558189
18:14 assbot Bug #558189 (sf-1167696) add support for PGP and S/MIME encrypt... : Bugs : GNU Mailman
18:17 jurov still looking into it how to deal with attachments
18:17 TheNewDeal I apologize for the off topic questions, but does friedcat have a gpg key?
18:18 jurov you want to send patches in above tar.gz format?
18:18 asciilifeform jurov: unless you can think of a better idea
18:18 asciilifeform jurov: inline sigs end up with patch mutilated into uselessness with escape chars
18:18 jurov ah that
18:19 asciilifeform jurov: important thing is that patches and sigs must stay married
18:20 asciilifeform jurov: also at some point we ought to have people sign off on others' patches, once they read
18:20 asciilifeform this is why i was so preoccupied (see yesterday's log) with keeping them as small as physically possible
18:21 jurov ic, the tarball is easy be signed by others
18:21 asciilifeform pgp/gpg mandatory mutilation of clearsigned text makes me retch
18:22 asciilifeform but we're stuck with it.
18:23 ben_vulpes <asciilifeform> jurov: also at some point we ought to have people sign off on others' patches, once they read << would a new tarball with sig attached suffice?
18:23 asciilifeform ugly
18:23 asciilifeform ideally, we'd have a patch and a collection of detached sigs of the plain ascii of the patch
18:23 ben_vulpes responses to patch thread with sigs?
18:23 asciilifeform to feed into some mechanized viewer at a later time
18:23 jurov no it's looking like one attachment the tarball, another attachment the signature
18:24 jurov which must be named similarly
18:24 jurov other people shall reply and send only their signatures
18:24 jurov with same names
18:24 asciilifeform signatures of ascii patch?
18:24 asciilifeform or tarred
18:25 jurov when multiple files are needed, can be tarred
18:25 asciilifeform possible to have two attachments, plain ascii patch - and, second, detached sig of the former ?
18:25 asciilifeform i suggest one patch file per patch
18:25 asciilifeform as with my example
18:26 asciilifeform merging, incidentally, will be a bitch.
18:26 asciilifeform and nothing can really be done about this.
18:26 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: to digress, what's the rationale behind keeping makefile.linux-mingw?
18:26 asciilifeform none
18:26 jurov it'll actually be fileformat and filecount agnostic...
18:27 asciilifeform i simply didn't zap win32, left it for other folks
18:27 jurov as long as each patch can be uniquely identified and paired with relevant sigs
18:27 asciilifeform jurov: so, describe procedure for posting
18:27 asciilifeform mail message with - body, sig of body, attachment1 (patch), attachment2 (sig of patch) ?
18:28 jurov thus ... for every attachment named patch-author-id attach also patch-author-id.sig
18:28 asciilifeform what about message body? (text)
18:28 jurov and whoever want to sign it, sends patch-author-id.sig too
18:29 jurov is message body so important?
18:29 asciilifeform spam control
18:29 jurov *text
18:29 asciilifeform barbarians should not be able to piss in the soup
18:30 jurov Yes. then the patch above can be used: "A post will be distributed only if the PGP signature on the post is from one of the list members."
18:30 asciilifeform there we go.
18:31 jurov i have to try it first what the "signature on the post" means if it si not S/MIME
18:31 jurov then i'll report
18:39 asciilifeform incidentally, anyone ever screened the pnSeed[] crap for known shitgnome ip ranges ?

19:35 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: neato
19:35 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: toss it in jurov's turdatron when the latter's ready.
19:36 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: considering that this fix should not have changed the built binary one byte, you probably did not need to do the live-fire test.
19:36 asciilifeform (assuming you had upnp disabled in flags before)
19:42 ben_vulpes did indeed.
19:42 ben_vulpes best to do it correctly, though. and binaries are not my concern - source is.
19:42 asciilifeform if making 'cosmetic' change, can diff the binaries (after stripping debug crud)
19:43 ben_vulpes does UPNP removal count as a cosmetic change?
19:43 asciilifeform if it was zapped by flag to begin with
19:44 asciilifeform (as on any sane build)
19:47 ben_vulpes it's at least an example of the desired process.
19:48 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: note that 'hops on the network and downloads blocks' is not necessarily equivalent to 'works'
19:49 kakobrekla in reality no one will ever know if it works.
19:49 asciilifeform see dijkstra, yes.
19:50 asciilifeform although, i'll spill the one bean, that the point of my particular long-term 'fits in head' compaction for it, is to determine (for my own perverse pleasure) whether: it works.
19:51 ben_vulpes what a turd
19:52 ben_vulpes what a miserable, beautiful turd.
19:52 asciilifeform where's the beauty?
19:52 asciilifeform wish i could see it.
19:52 kakobrekla 'fits in head' < meh, some folks fit 50k digits of pi in ther head.
19:52 kakobrekla their*
19:52 asciilifeform not enough to fit in your stomach, for something to be food.
19:52 asciilifeform can fit a kg or two of cement there.
19:53 kakobrekla exactly
19:53 asciilifeform when i say 'fits in head', i mean in the same way mechanism of doorknob, or kalashnikov.
19:53 kakobrekla the test "if you can stomach" it is not the best one imho
19:53 asciilifeform stomach+digest.
19:53 ben_vulpes if it does what it says on the tin, i find it a vastly more palatable meal than say a dollar
19:54 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: as kakobrekla pointed out, this cannot be established - at least, quite certainly not given the extant turd.
19:55 ben_vulpes few things are certain even to those capable of reasoning about them. i must fumble in the dark making guesses. my guess though, is that some parts of it work.
19:56 ben_vulpes but tis but a guess and that guess from me, and discounts should be applied heavily.
19:56 kakobrekla still this is very arbitrary. can expect to stuff this in avg head and also on the other hand some people can digest some funky shit.
19:56 kakobrekla s/can/cant
19:56 asciilifeform a theoretically minimal bitcoinator will not fit in 'avg head,' no.
19:56 asciilifeform 'things can be made as simple as possible, not simpler.'

20:09 mircea_popescu in other news, i had excellent seafood in caviar sauce.
20:10 * asciilifeform misses cheap soviet caviar (not 'cheapened', but actually cheap, on account of geography)
20:10 * mircea_popescu recalls that.
20:10 mircea_popescu used to get the nice sprots too.
20:10 asciilifeform i still get these!
20:10 asciilifeform importers.
20:10 mircea_popescu not nearly as nice.
20:10 asciilifeform same can, even.
20:11 mircea_popescu yeah but i think they;'re faking the smoke
20:11 asciilifeform they did for a while
20:11 asciilifeform until proper smoke was quietly re-legalized
20:11 asciilifeform post-2010 or so, real, afaik

20:11 * asciilifeform checks sprat supply
20:11 kakobrekla whats the story there ascii
20:12 asciilifeform kakobrekla: for a spell, eu banned smoked foods (!) - because 'carcinogen' - and then latvia, eu circa '04, got the sharp end of the ban
20:13 asciilifeform sprats (iconic canned fish, familiar to virtually all sovblok folks) started shipping with 'synthetic smoke'
20:13 asciilifeform a terrible erzats
20:13 mircea_popescu really it's the can. black and gold.
20:14 asciilifeform i presently get my (and got the woman addicted likewise, when first met even) sprat fix from a german importer in wash. dc
20:14 mircea_popescu asciilifeform nothing really goes with vodka and olives
20:14 asciilifeform lol
20:14 asciilifeform there is no substitute for standard sprats. none.
20:15 * asciilifeform counts three cans
20:15 jurov are theses sprats cryptographically signed?
20:15 mircea_popescu http://www.thecopydude.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/09/images/spratcan.jpg
20:15 asciilifeform aha those are the plus-sizers!
20:15 mircea_popescu jurov no, they're olphactorily signed
20:15 jurov yes i like em too
20:16 mircea_popescu asciilifeform similarly there's no substitute for salt pickles
20:16 mircea_popescu wasabi
20:16 mircea_popescu long list of specific food items
20:16 asciilifeform hehe
20:16 mircea_popescu can't make deviled eggs without salt pickles fro crying out loud
20:16 mircea_popescu cookign is a lot like coding
20:17 asciilifeform but more important.

20:19 mircea_popescu it can ~feel~ the color!

If it kills you, this brave plane, then he's a brave patriot and you're just as idiotically dead. On the contrary... well... it's a sore plane. Very sore plane. Otherwise, he died a patriot, flying a bomb your way, wanting to kill you. But lucky for you - you weren't an idiot.
20:24 chetty два идиота
20:24 mircea_popescu dva idiota should be a tattoo.
20:24 chetty :D
20:25 cazalla seems most men prefer little to no labia but given one of the first i saw was a beat to shit jpg from a bbs, i would argue labia certainly have an aesthetic quality about them
20:25 mircea_popescu and ftr, stih is directly "verse" in romanian.
20:26 mircea_popescu cazalla a preference of no labia is indicative of the pedo.

20:56 mod6 and more-over, all the steps/requirements involved in creating such a patch.
20:56 mod6 we should have some sort of sop involved.

20:56 mod6 lot of ideas have flown by in here over the last 2+ days, solid ideas that should be documented.

23:19 mircea_popescu thinks people ask about porn. "is that a shoehorn ?"
23:19 asciilifeform shoehorns are a neglected but important piece of infrastructure!
23:19 asciilifeform how many usaschwitz inmates even own a shoehorn.
23:21 mircea_popescu here's a funny story : i have a maid here. as maids do, she has decided on a sorting of items in my place and is enforcing it unless one tells her better. which is the great unknown and unsung power of the default.
23:21 mircea_popescu on the other hand, im not sure she knows what a shoehorn is,
23:21 mircea_popescu because she's decided it goes IN my very nice marble mortar and pestle.
23:21 mircea_popescu with the pestle.
23:22 mircea_popescu the first time this happened chicks discovert it, i was like ew! and laughed at her. but then i forgot to say anything, so sure enough, next time...
