02:19 ben_vulpes that's what makes it so tempting!
02:20 ben_vulpes stand back everyone i'm just going to deform the crust to perform a bit of geoatmospheric arbitrage
02:24 mircea_popescu works where it works. not hydro power's fault all sorts of idiots wanna "make do with what they got"
02:26 mircea_popescu the great "march of progress" narrative is fed off discrete bits. for instance -- the nile created a flood plain. for tens of thousands of years. not anymore.
02:28 mircea_popescu every dick and jane's expectation that "we did it reddit" is the faint echo of, man walked on the moon and generally speaking drove a wedge forcing a reevaluation of the celestial peerage. "as eternal as the nile flood" is no longer equal to "as eternal as the tide".

08:05 mircea_popescu Reuel nah it's there. i suppose we've moved on to the 2017 testing of the infrastructure.
08:06 mircea_popescu consider that this is done on the very last limb of a huge apparatus of idle losers, maintained at very great expense by a tooth and claw fight to prevent trump appointments! the spy ustate rebells! etcetera!
08:09 Reuel I like how you immediately take the mountaintop view there lol
08:09 Reuel But it is some kind ddos then?
08:09 mircea_popescu well, trilema has been online for a long time, eventually you get over the immediacy of it all.
08:10 mircea_popescu pretty much every year some bright young derp comes up with this.

08:55 jhvh1 stormy with a chance of packeting
08:55 shinohai still not chnaged
08:56 mircea_popescu lel
08:57 mircea_popescu props to Reuel though, i think he noticed the same second it happened or some shit.
08:57 Reuel Pure coincidence
08:59 Reuel I was looking for an article but forgot the name, in it you were talking about Eulora and most games being spreadsheets for people used to work spreadsheets or something like that
08:59 mircea_popescu ah yeah. sparked by eve lel
08:59 mircea_popescu and in other hippy dippy weatherman, it's raining here with a purely tropical intensity. the city's going to be flooded again.
09:00 mircea_popescu these idiots, they get entirely disrupted by admittedly heavy rains twice a year, they flail about helplessly on tv about it THAT DAY and that's that, that's it, go right back to their regularly scheduled dickholding and netflix.
09:09 diana_coman they get...disrupted? from what? by the sound of it, they just get one day of tv out of it; only twice a year, too, how unfair
09:10 mircea_popescu diana_coman can't get from point a to point b, what it usually means.
09:10 mircea_popescu admittedly, hard to actually disrupt 1-neuron hydra.
09:11 diana_coman but that supposes one actually has some businesses going from a to b, some aim as in going exactly to b etc
09:12 mircea_popescu well, perversely, it either presupposes THAT or else as the more commonly the case in socialist states (really argentina is what the us was aspiring to be with ronald mcclinton) that they have 0 business to do anyway. in which case not being able to do particular subset x of the pile of things you weren't going to do anyway somehow stands out.
09:12 mircea_popescu it's only the people in the middle who have alternative, as it were.
09:12 mircea_popescu if you do something now and again, flood can be welcome respite. if you do things all the time OR NEVER, floods are threatening, existentially.
09:17 diana_coman hm, in total stillness any change is potentially threatening on an existential level, I can see that, yes
09:18 diana_coman ftr each and every time I witnessed this sort of flailing it meant without exception that NOTHING was going to be done about it - people needed to let go of steam/put on a show/whatever but basically to avoid doing something about it
09:18 mircea_popescu ayep.
09:18 trinque isn't there some bureau for this? call the ministry of inconvenient weather. it's not like we're some poor country without one.
09:19 * trinque recalls the epic video of portlanders sliding down an icy hill one by one
09:24 mircea_popescu right-o.
09:25 mircea_popescu !~later tell peterl since you're both in the field and unlazy, here's a thought - i would like to see a quantitative history of life in terms of biopumps. i dunno that this was ever done, and it's a crying shame.
09:25 jhvh1 mircea_popescu: The operation succeeded.
09:26 mircea_popescu what i mean specifically is that if we turned all biomass to ash today, life wouldn't be able to just start right back up with people in the way computers would. if i break all the computers nobody's making the pentium 1 all over again.
09:27 mircea_popescu but if i physically extinguish life, it will have to go through its whole ontogenesis, not strictly because of gnosis problem (ie, WHO is doing the jumps ? life's extinguished, there's n oreserve medium) but because of a purely physical problem.
09:27 mircea_popescu to have mammals, you need the citric pump. this may not exist, physically, until enough precursors have been built up. they can only be built up by specific metabolic processes.
09:28 mircea_popescu which is why that ancient trilema article about my encounter with the aliens and the discussions re the nth roman empire and the perennial nature of the english language as well as more recently http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-10#1612893 and the coal in soil discussion.
09:28 a111 Logged on 2017-02-10 06:04 mircea_popescu: (guru meditation : whence does a tree's mass come from ?)
09:29 mircea_popescu turns out that yes, there IS an endothermic reaction available for coal, but nevertheless that notwithstanding, there IS NO microorganism that takes soil coal and turns it into c02 and its own livelihood.
09:29 mircea_popescu coal must be taken in the form of live tree, or live leaf, or recently dead tree, or leaf, or bug, or somesuch. not as charcoal.
09:30 mircea_popescu now some of these pumps i know, but some, especially at the very early bacteria/algae/protist early history we probably do not know.
09:31 mircea_popescu so therefore, a history of life in terms of "first, you gotta get natrium pump going, as seen in thiomargarita. then, when enough X is piled up, (no less than q) you can start xantophyl pump. when enough etc etc"
09:31 mircea_popescu does this make any sesne ?
09:35 shinohai someone has to keep the fires of auschwitz burning
09:35 mircea_popescu heh
09:36 mircea_popescu shinohai the auschwitz reference is oddly on point, because it was the first large scale encounter with a problem very much in this vein : if body goes long enough without sufficient intake, it eventually digests the proteins thatmake up the intake manifold for its protein digestion cycle, resulting in a situation where the body is alive but not for long, even if you feed it it can't digest anymore.
09:38 mircea_popescu anyway, the advantage of the above approach, at least from a "teach smart kids biology, physics and systems design" pov, is that it scales extremely well. discussion can be made as short or as infinitely complex as the bright young mind has patience for.

17:43 ben_vulpes BingoBoingo: do i hafta buy it from a factory?
17:44 ben_vulpes or does it come from some bog somewhere, extracted at rates far greater than the bog can replenish
17:44 BingoBoingo ben_vulpes: More you buy it from a mine of sorts, usually in Canada, and the fact of its extraction is why you must buy it while it still is cheap
17:45 ben_vulpes stockpile peat moss. k.
17:45 ben_vulpes thanks BingoBoingo

18:36 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes rando eyeballs webshit trying to pr on top of the newsfeed. been going on since forever, not specifically more related ot the topic than the coca cola xmas edition
18:37 gabriel_laddel_p are there any links in the logs that need special treatment for archival? Current list: download youtube videos & pdfs.
18:38 asciilifeform gabriel_laddel_p: there are not so many youtube clips worth saving, and probably best handled on case by case basis, manually
18:38 mircea_popescu turning pdfs into proper (small, well formatted) html would be useful, cut adobe out of the document loop. videos meh.
18:38 mircea_popescu i never watch them.
18:39 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: this is demonstrably impossible in the general case (unless you count html turd with img tags and pages as bitmaps as 'well-formatted')
18:39 mircea_popescu what can i tell you. pdf gets displayed somehow. html is a notation for display. convert.
18:39 asciilifeform http://www.loper-os.org/pub/hl/hl.html << example.
18:43 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes so are we building the republican farms in costa rica ?
18:43 gabriel_laddel_p example of present html archive output: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bznn0f9Mk3KAY1JoVE1ybmx4UGc/view?usp=sharing
18:44 asciilifeform why is there js in there ?
18:45 gabriel_laddel_p is this an issue?
18:47 asciilifeform what do you think, gabriel_laddel_p ? i mentioned it because i needed to break in a new keyboard, or wut
18:47 asciilifeform noshit.jpg it's an issue
18:49 gabriel_laddel_p what I think: if someone has js turned on in their browser, it's because they want js. If turned off, they don't want it. I, at least, want an-accurate-as-possible archive of whatever shows up in the logs, including arbitrary files, videos etc.
18:50 asciilifeform gabriel_laddel_p: the current favourite, archive.is, is able to display the ~text~ of pretty much every linked turd (no matter how encrusted) without ~forcing~ viewer to enable js. can yours do this ?

19:08 mircea_popescu (in fairness though, inflation didn't go over 10 before the monkey went into office)
19:08 ben_vulpes someone call the old witches and tell them the things they did all day were pointless
19:08 mircea_popescu ah, canned tomatoes. yeah. is the sun strong enough there to dry them well btw ?
19:08 ben_vulpes highly dependent on when the crop comes in
19:09 mircea_popescu now that's a way to make money as a etsy head, plant an acre of tomatoes, sell five or so tons of primo sundried tomato. 10k a ton or such.
19:09 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes tomato crop comes in from late july onwards into winter.
19:09 ben_vulpes depends on when mine come in relative to how strong the sun is at that time of year.
19:09 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: can you picture 'etsy head' harvesting an acre of something??
19:09 mircea_popescu ah. even worth making a mirror thing for this.
19:10 mircea_popescu asciilifeform yes, actually. i saw some harvest an acre of dicks, on their hands and knees.
19:10 ben_vulpes please not project mirror again
19:10 ben_vulpes oh god the microcontrollers
19:10 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes only mentioned it in the sense of "worth it moreso than for stupid solar power bs".

19:12 ben_vulpes sure beats reading the source on over-modal'ed websharts
19:13 gabriel_laddel_p ben_vulpes: good to hear. If you or anyone else has something they want the archiver to do, speak now.
19:13 asciilifeform lulzy link btw
19:13 asciilifeform 'I worry that people don’t appreciate how weird this is. I didn’t appreciate it for a long time. I guess I just figured that Grandpa used to talk about how back in his day movie tickets only cost a nickel; that was just the way of the world. But all of the numbers above are inflation-adjusted.

19:13 ben_vulpes gabriel_laddel_p: don't set it in stone, things move very slowly in the republic.
19:14 gabriel_laddel_p one prior (many months ago) suggestion I liked: archive from that page to a depth of 2.
19:14 mircea_popescu gabriel_laddel_p if it could detect and wipe the idiotic wrap(80) thing that'd be great.
19:15 ben_vulpes in other things i don't hate, this yamhill valley rose of pinots is not foul!
19:16 mircea_popescu but yes, it's actually a step in the right direction.
19:17 asciilifeform gabriel_laddel_p: the #1 thing i'd like from future archiver is duplicability
19:17 danielpbarron gabriel_laddel_p, do atruechurch.info
19:17 asciilifeform (i.e. that i can mirror the ~existing material~ and ~archiver itself~ immediately)
19:17 asciilifeform it is the thing most glaringly missing from archive.is
19:18 asciilifeform and i don't mean 'can mirror if i crawl the logs' but IN ONE SHOT
19:18 gabriel_laddel_p Sadly you will only be able to do this if you are running Masamune, as it is 100% dependent on its internals.

19:19 asciilifeform and why ?
19:19 mircea_popescu and for the record, every film with michael douglas in it is a piece of shit ; but perhaps none as much as "the game". holy fucking shit, the premise is a dour dude who "has it all", including a disdainful relationship with his ex wife and two hotties vying for his attention at work nevertheless a) lives in a totally empty house. because how fucking hard & unthinkable it would be to get all the ex secretaries to live there hu
19:19 mircea_popescu rr ; b) goes to some derpy obscure "firm" and spends A WHOLE DAY of his apparently priceless-worthess time doing the equivalent of posting naked selfies all day on twitter.
19:19 mircea_popescu more contortedly idiotic nonsense "this is how rich dudes r, for srs guise" could scarcely be devised.
19:20 mircea_popescu dude fills in forms. i'm like "hey, when's the last time you saw me fill in a form ?". hilarity ensues.
19:20 mircea_popescu most of the girls never did, in their whole life.

19:33 ben_vulpes i'd not mind teh ukr, provided i could figure out where the shoosting is happening where it's likely to spread to etc etc
19:34 mircea_popescu think for a second : ukraine is as large as texas. if someone were firing 1mn rounds each and every single day, that's still about one round each million square meters.
19:35 mircea_popescu contrary to press reports, "dangerous" places are never practically dangerous.
19:36 ben_vulpes you don't have to convince me
19:37 mircea_popescu nevertheless, the ~only place in the world with land worth buying that you can afford to buy today is ukraina.
19:38 mircea_popescu now, whether they kick you out once it settles down is indeed a toss-up, but eventually at some point you're going to have to take a chance.
19:38 asciilifeform the mega-q is whether 'buying' does anything there
19:38 mircea_popescu right.
19:38 asciilifeform as per the thai pub thread
19:38 mircea_popescu except, he goes there to live. with woman. and small child. that MAY do something.

19:42 mircea_popescu honestly i'd rather buy in africa. anyway.
19:42 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: which africa
19:43 mircea_popescu places inhabited by a thin sliver of idiots are essentially brackish water. canada, argentina, the us to a large extent. they're neither fucking nor will get off the pig.
19:43 mircea_popescu asciilifeform congo, subsaharan generally.

19:43 mircea_popescu briefly.
19:44 asciilifeform so somebody cancelled the tsetse fly, and other pleasures of 'climate not made for white man' ?
19:44 asciilifeform or mircea_popescu simply goes in for the taste
19:45 mircea_popescu eh. do you understand i produce about ONE QUARTER TON of water a week through diligent application of electric power in this god forsaken shithole ?
19:45 mircea_popescu there is no such thing as "climate made for white man". the thing with white man, unlike all other man, is that white man makes climate not the other way around.
19:45 asciilifeform living in the swamp -- i can easily picture this
19:45 asciilifeform maybe just me, but i like climates where i dun have to stay in the shielded dome, and can go out without a suit
