00:18 mircea_popescu somewhat, yeah.

00:21 mircea_popescu phf i have no confidence in "chemical cronometer" crackpot alfism. notice that there has never existed such a thing as a chemical clock, not even today. it is, i daresay, the earliest application of "quantum computer", this.

00:24 mircea_popescu phf hopefully indian "state" fails within the next few years.
00:25 mircea_popescu it was a ridiculous piece of british nonsense about on par with their middle eastern constructions. has no place in sanity.
00:26 phf it's the original "helping africa"
00:26 mircea_popescu quite.
00:26 mircea_popescu and unlike the us, which they "helped" into their present predicament, india has no fat to burn.
00:26 mircea_popescu it'll be truly sad when all the indian hipsters discover the hard facts through harder knocks.
00:27 mircea_popescu mostly because there's, in spite of all the noise and burbling, just a smattering of ustards. there's about 100x more of them in uttar pradesh alone.
00:27 mircea_popescu a pile of ten corpses is not the same thing as a pile of eight hundred.
00:30 phf well, it'll be easier for them to hard knock, because hipsters will just go back to farming/fishing because ~father and mother~ did
00:30 mircea_popescu that's what you think.
00:31 phf i'm in the south, they have many choice words here for uttar pradesh here, when you get them drunk
00:31 mircea_popescu tell you what, ben_vulpes 's girl, or for that matter lucy (in disgrace) has no problem doing barefoot-in-mud thing because once+ removed from the grandmothers.
00:31 mircea_popescu the daughter of the woman who gave birth in a ditch isn't gonna. with her life. it skips a generation.
00:32 ben_vulpes so in light of the triviality with which the TRB node to which mimisbrunnr talks is taken out by even moderately determined actors, i'm considering taking the whole thing down until i have a more robust data collector system in place.
00:33 mircea_popescu speaking of which, anyone read that splendid piece, late austrian, i think might've been kafka actually, in which a woman fucked in the bushes complains, to no one in particular, that there she is, still taking it with the dust ?
00:33 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: didja try the scheme where your node only talks to trb nodes ?
00:33 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes gotta distribute. there's just no other way. i kinda hinted at it back when, but didn't want to be telling you how to do your shit. anyway : make a half dozen nodes, not one.
00:33 phf i see that skip generation here, boys want to transcend fathers, move to Dubai for riches, and if they manage to return (because the contract negotiator was a nice person), switch to plan B. get some nodic lady to take them to the promissed land.
00:34 mircea_popescu phf that's btw muslim influence. this is currently the ~only alternative to "blow shit up", the white cow.
00:34 ben_vulpes mircea_popescu: now that you mention it
00:34 mircea_popescu i lived for months among a group of monkeys who considered me ~divine, because well, chet was there with me.
00:34 phf yeap
00:34 mircea_popescu they just couldn't comprehend relationship matching their filter but not matching their expectation. how could it!!11
00:36 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: pretty sure i'm running with malleus
00:36 ben_vulpes leastaways that node
00:36 mircea_popescu (the divine part came from, not that she was subservient but that we had no substantial disagreements, which to them was precisely the same thing ; and didn't match their observations among the "truly successful" dudes of the locality (there's a bunch of people who got a fat old bitty from londonderry to move over, funnel some bezzle and build a house-foreigners-and-boat thingee). )
00:37 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: that isn't equivalent!
00:37 mircea_popescu ^
00:38 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: malleus has 0 relation to the item suggested.
00:39 asciilifeform what you want is a box that ~only~ talks to a handful of trb nodes. that you operate.
00:39 asciilifeform ~these~ talk to outside world.
00:39 mircea_popescu nd boxes here is not vps.,
00:40 asciilifeform honest boxes.
00:40 phf there's one boy on the beach, he affected caribbean accent (!!) and just fully committed to the whole kingston bad boy shtick. "ja man", king tubby reggae, the works. they had a going away party for him, because he scored the jack pot. married a homely english girl, who's bringing him back to u.k.
00:41 mircea_popescu heh.
00:41 mircea_popescu i give it even odds he's going to twink for pay before the five year plan is out.
00:42 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: ah, my mistake.
00:45 phf right, my yoga teacher friend, who's been "friendly" with all the local boys had enough experience in the matter to "hell fucking no am i ever" as far as marrying an indian. they ~expect~ their women to be meak, but they don't have any way of enforcing it, so the dynamic goes straight into bitchy couple mode as soon as there's any hint of "couple"

14:14 trinque ah ok
14:15 trinque iirc there's this "esword" program which might be balls of html inside
14:15 danielpbarron where possible i'll use Darwin Fish's translation; i think he did the first few books of moses
14:15 trinque it has been a very long time since I looked into such a thing
14:15 trinque might help
14:27 Framedragger such dedication to the cause danielpbarron, i'm curious if you ever considered learning greek (new testament) and possibly hebrew/aramaic (old testament), to read scriptures etc.
14:30 danielpbarron that would be nice, and that's part of the reason i like darwin; he did learn to read those things for exactly that reason
~ 16 minutes ~
14:47 mircea_popescu such learning is a lifetime activity.
14:48 ben_vulpes i can't tell if hebrew/aramaic felt easy because i was young when i learned it or if it actually is a fairly sensible character set
14:48 mircea_popescu character set ?
14:49 ben_vulpes the written form, i mean
14:49 ben_vulpes i am not a linguist, do not have the tongue to speak of tongues
14:49 trinque danielpbarron: ah you know what, no, they were sqlite databases inside
14:49 trinque so might be able to take one of those and script the generation of html
14:50 mircea_popescu "so the biblical scholars mis-translated the hebrew word for young woman into the greek word for virgin. an easy mistake to make, since there's only a subtle difference in spelling. but it was the virgin that caught people's attention. it's not every day that a virgin conceives and bears a son. so you keep that for a couple hundred years, and the next thing you know, you have the holy catholic church."

16:17 asciilifeform 'with what to deal with chopper, and how' is a question some of the folx tuned in might, whether they want to or not, have to answer one day.
16:20 mircea_popescu not really. but anywya, the proper model for helicopter is ~car ; except with the added benefits of jesus nut, and a serious incentive to keep everything light.
16:22 mircea_popescu what you're doing however is on the level of, "oh, i saw A team shooting in hollywood blockbuster, therefore safest place in world is in front of firing squad. also small arms don't work. tee hee."
16:23 mircea_popescu a hunting rifle is a good start. it helps tremendously if you a) can actually shoot where you aim and b) do actually aim at it.
16:23 asciilifeform fwiw in fact i never once saw up close the shooting of a chopper. and subj was not covered in my kindergarten.
16:23 asciilifeform so i'll believe mircea_popescu's description.
16:24 asciilifeform in which part would you have to aim ?
16:24 mircea_popescu i nearly fell to my death in one ; nobody was even shooting.
16:24 asciilifeform aha i recall that piece, it was water in the fuel
16:25 mircea_popescu asciilifeform think car. shoot driver ; shoot fuel tank ; these work with a fucking 38mm. if you're actually firing 20 gauge you can prolly fissure a cylinder / ablate the transmission / cut a hole throgh one blade large enough to make it no longer capable of flight

16:29 trinque asciilifeform: no idea
16:29 asciilifeform mojaheds in afghan for some reason preferred to use things other than buckshot. but is interesting to contemplate theoretically - given dispersion, how many shotgun rounds would you have to fire, from, say, 500 metres, to hit rotor.
16:30 mircea_popescu what dispersion ? it's a hunting round
16:30 asciilifeform so slug, not shot ?
16:30 mircea_popescu how many do you have to fire to hit duck ? "depends. can you shoot ?"
16:31 mircea_popescu asciilifeform the idea is that qualified hunter should be able to hit a duck at a half mile EVERY TIME.
16:32 asciilifeform wonder what mod6 would say to this.
16:32 mircea_popescu sometimes i wonder what you think hunting is.
16:34 asciilifeform i am not a champion marksman, nor mega-hunter. but i do picture that duck hunt would be somewhat more difficult if you had to shoot a ~specific~ duck, rather than one from a flock; and if ducks knew how to shoot back, and call for backup..
16:35 mircea_popescu this is what i mean. wtf are you talking "a specific duck". of coruse you shoot at a specific duck holy hell.
16:35 trinque lolwat
16:36 * trinque imagines asciilifeform spraying ak47 rounds into flock, "FOR PIGLET!!!!!"
16:36 mircea_popescu lol
16:36 mircea_popescu "into flock" being charitable. into bridge, into clouds, into the other rounds...
16:39 mircea_popescu anyway. it's a profession, being a hunter. not like being c programmer, but like being c programmer aspires to be.
~ 26 minutes ~
17:05 asciilifeform entirely respectable trade.
17:05 asciilifeform (hunting, that is.)
17:05 mircea_popescu yeah. telltale sign : it's not for everyone.
17:06 asciilifeform afaik only the grave is 'for everyone'
17:06 * mircea_popescu is always very suspicion of the female professions, from religion to "our democracy" to aluminum siding salesmanship that "are open to everyone"

19:15 mod6 <+asciilifeform> wonder what mod6 would say to this. << half a mile?! that's 2`640 ft. / 3 = ~880 yards. that's a pretty decent long shot even for a .308.
19:16 mod6 for me, when I use upland loads (#6 shot) for pheasants, i get many yells of "great shot mod6" if I put a bird down at "long shot" of 60-80 yards.
19:17 mod6 they do fly fast, and it's a lot harder than it looks. for one. now maybe I just suck shit, and guys are popping birds @ 500 yards on the regular. but this, i haven't seen myself.
19:17 mod6 many guys do shoot deer with .12ga slugs.
19:18 mod6 now, typically, as I understand, they typically take these deer at no more than 350 yards or you risk wounding the thing and having to track the sob for 10 miles.
19:19 mod6 if you're in a qcb, and you have a shotgun and don't have a rifle as an option, or slugs for your shotgun, buckshot will do just fine. but you aught to be within say, 25 yards if you want to put your man down.
19:20 mod6 that's just my $0.02. not gospel. personally, if I gotta fight in the field. i need to be able to put rounds on target up to at least 200 yards away or I'm basically in a qcb/hand-to-hand situation.
19:23 mod6 so, yeah qcb, shotgun with buckshot will the job really well, especially inside the home or whatnot. but if I'm attacking, trying to lay down suppressing fire, or a part of some type of garrison, gotta have a rifle. at least, that's what I want in my hands.
19:25 mod6 but heck, what do i know. when it comes down to it, any gun, with live ammo, is better than standing there with your dick in your hands.
19:26 mod6 :]

19:31 mod6 i should note that pheasants are a bit different though. i try to get them up no further than 30 yards in front of me. any more than that shots get hard, birds catch wind and they're gone easier than you'd think. I keep the dogs between 15-25 yards in front of me, that way, they flush, bird pops up, i knock 'em down.
19:32 mod6 ducks are a lot more involved. you gotta set out decoys and call 'em in to land. that's when those guys are in the blind they lock their wings coming into land that they shoot 'em. at least, that's what I hear.
19:33 mod6 im not sure how high they try to take the shots.... your pellet pattern spreads out the further and further away you are shooting. now, for instance, if I shoot at a pheasant that's too close too me. i'll hit it with a full pattern, and that will probably not be very awesome to eat.
19:34 mod6 so a bit of distance is good. too much and you're not hitting jack shit. even if you could put a pellet on target, it won't have enough KE to knock it down.
19:35 mod6 maybe the goose/duck hunters use a different choke than me too. so who knows.
19:35 mod6 i got a buddy who shoots a zillion geese every year, i'll have to ask him. i know that he does put out decoys and call's 'em in though.

19:39 BingoBoingo <ben_vulpes> so bad << Crank is probably best 'Murican film of the century so far
19:42 BingoBoingo <mircea_popescu> asciilifeform think car. shoot driver ; shoot fuel tank ; these work with a fucking 38mm. if you're actually firing 20 gauge you can prolly fissure a cylinder / ablate the transmission / cut a hole throgh one blade large enough to make it no longer capable of flight << 20 gauge is small less common one, 12 gauge is bigger common one.
19:52 mircea_popescu i once shot a phantom with a pea at 17 leagues
19:53 mircea_popescu blindfolded in the fog.
19:53 mircea_popescu and THAT'S HOW YOU KNOW I'M A HUNTER!!1
19:53 BingoBoingo In europe bird hunters hit at extreme range because they use 1, 2, or 4 gauge "punt guns", US maxes out at 10 and 12 gauge for the reason that ducks respond to bigger guns by just flying higher and then arms race
19:53 * BingoBoingo once shot down a fly with my pee
19:54 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo i suspect the thing is, us duck / swamp birds mostly live in estuaries ; whereas in europe over river marshlands.
19:54 mircea_popescu makes a huge difference, in that you ain't got a submarine dog.
19:54 BingoBoingo Depends on part of USA. Ducks are adaptable
19:54 mircea_popescu i thought us ducks were canadian.
19:55 BingoBoingo Tend to be International travellers
19:55 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo i think the pee thing makes you a... punter ?
