11:16 asciilifeform lol interesting reversal of the classic genre
11:19 mircea_popescu wait, this isn't the classic genre ?!
11:20 asciilifeform is, but with the colours swapped neh
11:21 mircea_popescu not afaik ? ~this~ is the classical. the "black power" stuff is it with the colors swapped neh ? like "cocoa milk, in case you were getting bored with all milk beinbg white" marketing thing ?
11:22 asciilifeform hm tru
11:24 mircea_popescu otherwise you know, as far as pantsuit media outlets / science (ie, wankish fantasy with no reality support whatsoever) goes, there's https://asiangirlsbelongtowhitemen.tumblr.com/ https://sissyasianboy.tumblr.com/post/173275119419/all-asian-boys-should-be-castrated-and-turned-into https://asianwhiteworship.tumblr.com/post/169628017674/the-new-asian-sexuality-an-asian-girl-fucking-her etc etc etc.
11:25 mircea_popescu but you can generally tell these all come from the same source the conceits of "racism" or "democracy" come from. because what the FUCK is "asian" even ? a notion similar to "ant".\
11:26 mircea_popescu a degree of mental confusion roughly similar to calling people from ohio mexicans because you saw one in a hat once.
11:27 ben_vulpes augh
11:29 mircea_popescu but srsly now, this whole "race" mental cockroach, especially when by "race" is meant things like "the nation of africa" (really bitch ? every saw a guy from senegal ?) or "asia" or whaterver the fuck is SO transparently a redditard's ploy to put the world through the juicer and get "just the facts" out, preferably in the same sort of ram buffer his middle school education required, which is four pictures and five bullet poin
11:30 mircea_popescu ts...
11:32 mircea_popescu really now, a 6 foot 5 dude that evolutionarily exists to outrun turkeys in flight ; a 4 foot pigmy that evolutionarily exists to fit comfortably under elephants and poke their belly with a spear from underneath and some fat government worker are "the nation of Africa" ? for the same money the average sex of mankind is rabbit.
11:32 mircea_popescu cuz it's furry, see ? and it jumps around. LOGIC from the mothership.
11:43 asciilifeform in other sads, http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/YP3Gz/?raw=true ( tldr -- BingoBoingo will probably not get that parcel )
11:44 mircea_popescu heh
11:46 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, i don't get it, what's the problem ? ~exact spanish translation of http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-02#1719423
11:46 a111 Logged on 2017-10-02 11:16 diana_coman: Framedragger, did you ever publish somewhere re the customs fee you had to pay for your fg(s)?
11:46 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: i ain't sending cc pics or mtgox passport shots
11:46 asciilifeform esp not via plaintxt shitmail
11:46 mircea_popescu "Si usted desea ampararse en la franquicia para compras por internet de particulares uruguayos"
11:47 mircea_popescu if you want to take advantage of the ... "right" to buy from local individuals (3 items per year)
11:47 mircea_popescu you... don't.
11:47 * asciilifeform reads again..
11:47 mircea_popescu "Si usted no desea utilizar uno de los 3 cupos que tiene con la franquicia para el año, dicho envío será liberado abonando impuestos."
11:47 mircea_popescu if you don't so desire, item will be released upon payment.
11:47 asciilifeform i parsed it as mandatory for some reason
11:48 mircea_popescu by the time they're bringing out the "ampararse" and "franquicia" you know they're blowing bubbles out their ass.
11:49 mircea_popescu batshit insane fucking system they got, incidentally. why not just make a govt amazon, force locals to use it if they don't wanna pay tax.
11:49 mircea_popescu holy shit, the retards. not only are they ever going to use a "smart"phone to go on a website, they DON'T EVEN FUCKING KNOW HOW TO MAKE A WEBSITE ANYMORE.
11:49 mircea_popescu mass literacy was a mistake.
11:50 asciilifeform what will 'govt amazon' stock ? matte cups ?
11:50 mircea_popescu whatever the fuck composes those "3 cupos per ano"
11:50 mircea_popescu local fermented beverages, how the fuck do i know what orcs trade.
11:51 asciilifeform it'd do 0 for us, is the point.
11:51 asciilifeform betcha whole story is really a rerun of the old mircea_popescu article with the anti-busstop protesters
11:51 asciilifeform in buenosaires
11:51 mircea_popescu (anyway, i'm mostly joking. THEY don't know how to speak their previous colonizer's language, and so they say "to buy from locals" when they mean "the buying of locals". w/e)
11:52 asciilifeform 'oh noez somebody might buy not from the local orcs'
11:52 mircea_popescu la franquicia para compras por internet de particulares uruguayos << the franchize for internet purchases FROM local private parties is the correct solution. but not only did they lift the bureaucratese, they lifted it wholesale, "de" now means "of" like english works, because why the fuck not, soberania.
11:55 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, remember that time we needed like 100kgs worth of sheet metal profiles, ended up having to fly them over with white man's airship because local orcs can't bend metal along predetermined lines ?
11:55 asciilifeform i will add : this is for a 10$ cable with fortybux of importtax ~prepaid~ via shitazon
11:55 asciilifeform ~prepaid~
11:56 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: i dun think they even know how to make own drainpipes, much less these
11:57 mircea_popescu yeah, because pouring concrete in matrices is like the height of white man's craft, not even black women i'm sorry, WOMEN OF AFRICA ever tried this with ground up mud and spitpies.
11:58 asciilifeform the funny/sad bit, is that i found enuff local material sources that it ~is~ possible to , say, make racks for rockchippen on-site, with some effort. BUT the chance of getting more than a handful of raw pcbs un-encased in protective 'old server' chassis, through orc checkpoint, is ~0
11:58 mircea_popescu aha.
11:58 mircea_popescu see, it's like an orc protection amulet, this. 1920 technology, what stalin sought to copy, is what orcs most fear.
11:59 * asciilifeform also wonders whether there isn't a hidden symbiosis between the usg.corp derps who prolly ship ~100% of the rackable comps ever before shipped to UY, and the 'we want a cut of that printolade you print' bridgetrolls
12:00 asciilifeform ( considering BingoBoingo's earlier discovery that almost all industrial comps ever imported there, are via contracts with microshit/dell/minions )
12:00 mircea_popescu i expect you actually own 100% of all computers ever shipped to uruguay. the rest is in extraterritorial zone.
12:00 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: the neighbouring racks were not all empty, interestingly.
12:01 asciilifeform and not all full of old desktop dells, even.
12:01 mircea_popescu gotta store the slano somewhere.
12:01 asciilifeform the wat
12:02 mircea_popescu wtf do they call the cured pig fat chunks ?
12:02 asciilifeform salo
12:02 mircea_popescu i thought that's what they called secluded rapespots in the italian countryside.
12:02 asciilifeform ( in so far as asciilifeform could see with naked eye : most of the nonempty racks were full of emc. gigagonnes of it. )
12:02 asciilifeform lol also
12:02 mircea_popescu сланина < there!
12:03 asciilifeform iirc that's what it goes by in ro
12:04 mircea_popescu everywhere but ukr, really.
12:05 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, emc, ie "We have extended our commitment to #AI with the announcement of two new 4-socket servers, the PowerEdge R840 and the PowerEdge R940xa. Explore " ?
12:06 mircea_popescu for the same money, wella extended its commitment to #AI with the announcement of two dozen new blonde hair dyes.
12:07 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: mega-seller of 'we'll mail you new disks when yours burns out immediately, and support microshit etc etc' crapolade, bought at some point by dell and absorbed into standard usg kompyooting stack
12:07 mircea_popescu right. and meanwhile committed.
12:07 asciilifeform ( iirc they landed the nsa disks contract )
12:08 mircea_popescu aha. or rather -- they're the funnel for which the nsa new development was even made.
12:09 mircea_popescu hence "bought" by dell.
12:10 asciilifeform how else.
12:20 mircea_popescu big scandal in romania these days, btw, because "it turns out" that in 2005 the ustards exported their spy-on-citizens system they brought up online sometime post 2001, and the romanians of course used it to spy on, eg, members of the csat ("supreme council of defense", funny communist leftover item, after the soviet model). and you know, ex "generals" going to the media with "the cia boss, the fbi boss and the military attac
12:20 mircea_popescu he had the keys". cuz, again, soberania.
12:20 mircea_popescu the laugh of all time.
12:20 asciilifeform i recall this from old trilema piece ?
12:21 mircea_popescu not that anyone in the know didn't know, the whole fucking deal is physical-space-for-prison in orcland for online-space-for-excell fuckery in empire imaginary virtualand.
12:21 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, ah but you see, "nobody reads trilema" hurr durr, it is a DISCOVERY in 2018. because "the press" hurr durr.
12:23 * asciilifeform wonders whether they have a stable of dedicated boecks for such 'discoveries', or if disposables
~ 30 minutes ~
12:54 mircea_popescu mostly retiring "generals" in this particular case
12:55 mircea_popescu used to be a time when being a staff officer meant something. now it's mostly i-cant-believe-this-fuckwit-isnt-an-academic / oh-but-he-is.
13:08 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: quite far upstack : a quite 'apocalyptic' phuctoring could at some point be had, by making use of shamir & mantin's pill against rc4 ( used in ~every shitprng to date )
13:10 asciilifeform ( rc4-whitened crapola is readily 'distinguishable from random' )
13:15 mircea_popescu eventually.
13:15 mircea_popescu how you holding up BingoBoingo ?
13:16 mircea_popescu do you have a 2nd person there in case you need anything ? the venezoelana or what was it ?
13:17 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: Doing a lot better
13:18 mircea_popescu a nice then.
13:18 mircea_popescu standing ?
13:19 BingoBoingo In the hostel, drinking water, and breathing much easier
13:20 mircea_popescu alright.
13:20 BingoBoingo Sitting, standing, walking in circles, and occasionally using the stairs.
13:20 mircea_popescu oj, eh ? they have that delicious fresh pressed stuff, just the thing./
13:21 BingoBoingo AHA, Considering that or the peach juice
13:22 mircea_popescu absolutely.
13:24 BingoBoingo Nearly feeling good enough for a grocery run. Prolly going to get juice, blue cheese, and whatever the local equivalent of crackers is
13:26 mircea_popescu solid plan
13:29 BingoBoingo Then tomorrow I appear with my paperwork at the Department of identity, then next Tuesday I pick up the Cedula.
13:31 BingoBoingo A kilo or so of icecream will probably be involved somewhere along the way.
13:31 mircea_popescu lol.
13:34 BingoBoingo Anyways, in 8 days I get to use all of this bullshit tax stuff paid here to get my not-Obamacare. Optimistically if I only need the number and not the physical card I could see a doctor as soon as tomorrow.
13:38 mircea_popescu are you out of cash ?
13:39 BingoBoingo Nah, but I also don't want to hand over cash if it can be avoid it. And the Urgency is substantially less than yesterday.
13:39 mircea_popescu so make an appt ; doctor's visit is what, 50 bux, 100 if you're really going to the spa.
13:40 BingoBoingo Aite
13:41 mircea_popescu if the sulfa killed it it was definitely bacterial ; the whole "after rain" story is very streptoccocus. you don't want to end up with an entrenched infection, this is how people end up with lifelong sinusitis and other such unpleasantries.
13:43 BingoBoingo Definitely.
13:47 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: did anybody ever collect pubkeys of tor nodes ? or was this mentioned in log, but never done
13:48 mircea_popescu mentioned in log, possibly what actually done Framedragger_ in, he went to talk to the shrews
13:48 mircea_popescu but did he ever return no he never returned, he's the man in the mta...
13:48 asciilifeform ( coupla yrs back, a heninger-type academitard demonstratively pretended to do this, with the typical null output )
13:48 asciilifeform yea. sad.
13:49 asciilifeform gotta wonder what he found on the shrew planet, that was worth staying for.
13:49 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, you ever wonder what laika found ?
13:50 asciilifeform lol, what? fiery demise ?
13:51 mircea_popescu well, more's the question what didn't find.
13:51 mircea_popescu what, dog was gonna build a rocket
13:52 asciilifeform iirc d00d did have some parting word to the effect of 'leave me to my model airplanes'
13:53 mircea_popescu i dun recall this ?
13:53 asciilifeform http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-10#1624181 possibly
13:53 a111 Logged on 2017-03-10 14:50 Framedragger: i like my rc airplanes. "the will of history necessitates you to X" has a marx'ified hegelian vibe :p
13:54 mircea_popescu heh.
13:56 mircea_popescu it ~does~ have a vibe, which sure could be classified that way ; or any other way. "Πειθοῦς ἐστι κέλευθος - Ἀληθείῃ γὰρ ὀπηδεῖ - ἡ δ ́ ὡς οὐκ ἔστιν τε καὶ ὡς χρεών ἐστι μὴ εἶναι, τὴν δή τοι φράζω παναπευθέα ἔμμεν ἀταρπόν·" whartever.

14:20 mircea_popescu time i recount a story, i suppose. here it is : "Subject: Ah, I remember now :D
14:20 mircea_popescu You are the early BTC adopter and IIRC you were or had used DAO's findings/theft (whatever you call). I thought your name seemed familiar, but I do not always participate in the chatter. I was an early bitcoin adopter too. Then I got around to ethereum. Did a fun ICO - http://www.comp.nus.edu.sg/news/2147-2017kybernetwork-loiluu/ But near December last year, I donated the cash value of almost all of my bitcoins to Bill & Meli

I like it, but I also understand the argument for not having OSS and making money off it. But you did a good thing there. so co

14:25 mircea_popescu anyway, the trigger was me explaining why i'm not gonna use skype/discord, no matter what the fuck they do. apparently "daytime talk radio" was meanwhile supplanted by these mutual clucking devices they have. who the fuck knew in three short decades socialism will manage to take all the most obnoxious features of a marginal social phenomenon associated with wage slaves and turn it into a universal locus of youth.
14:26 mircea_popescu at least their fathers knew listening to talk radio in the car was BECAUSE THEIR LIFE SUCKS. these schmucks listen to it in their "spare" time, and don't even go to the trouble of ~selecting~ a moron to uuhhh and aaahhh melifluously, no, any old dweeb will do.
14:26 mircea_popescu 0 self respect in the lands of "self confidence".
14:29 asciilifeform i thought skype etc were voip crapola, rather than pseudo-broadcast
14:29 mircea_popescu yes, voip crapola. now think -- they have nothing to say to each other and 1 on 1 is "too much pressure" anyway, so they'd join channels, yes ?
14:29 mircea_popescu the logic of idiocy is not hard to follow.
14:30 asciilifeform prior to this, they did same thing via ordinary phone, neh
14:31 ben_vulpes standard cab driver tech for...decades?
14:31 asciilifeform 'cb' aha
14:32 * asciilifeform has a junkyard 'cb' , switches it on sometimes for lulz
14:32 mircea_popescu there's a large (and good god vocal!) population on say fetlife, which is only there to steal the having been stolen from wrt sex. specifically, they're mental 12yos who are there to not have to notice they're entiurely asexual, "how could you think that of me, i'm here engaging in the exact sort of slut-in-training perisexual and cvasisexual behaviours typical of pubescence!". here, sampler : "Law_And_Chaos 26M Dom ah you se
14:32 mircea_popescu em so very keen on slavery I wanted to offer you the chance to be a slave. I've seen a few posts about you asking people to be your slave, well you can be mine instead." "me : Any clue who you're talking to, gopnik ?" "him : couldn't give a damn who i'm talking to. The fact that most groups i'm part of are warning people about you tells me that you're not a good person."
14:33 mircea_popescu imagine this fucking wonder, "not a good person". what the fuck happened in their heads, seriously, this is a drawback, being the guy your mom told you to stay clear of ? he;s going to do me disservice by running around "warning" the gals about how not good i am ?
14:34 asciilifeform i can't resist to ask : mircea_popescu has been drilling shitlife for yrs; anyffing ever come out of the pipe, aside from sludge ?
14:34 mircea_popescu this is not singular : fetlife is at least half by weight people who want a good pretext as to why they're not getting laid (community!) ; gaming is at least half by weight people who want a good pretext as to why they suck at video games (community!) and so on and so following. look at expert sex change in this vein, you'll discover a few things about the sort of questions asked and the placesd they come from.
14:34 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, have you seen the pics on trilema ever ?
14:35 asciilifeform which pics
14:35 mircea_popescu the anus and the vulva are separated by a thin membrane by design ; this is what sophia thinks of our habits.
14:35 mod6 the taint
14:35 mircea_popescu the taint!
14:35 mircea_popescu if you don't drill the shitpipe, how're you going to end up in cunt ?!
14:36 asciilifeform q wasn't 'why do it, it is pointless', but 'what sludge %'
14:36 mircea_popescu directly ?! what are you, like some kind of pervert ?!
14:36 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, hard to count the sludge, see. what % of slag is diamonds ?
14:36 asciilifeform >0
14:36 mircea_popescu definitely >0.
14:37 mircea_popescu anyway, what do i count ? every girl my IA devices ever touched ? that'd be tens of millions, who knows, a billion. every girl in what, my girl's l1 ? l2 ? l which ?
14:37 mircea_popescu it's impossible to establish the numerator.
14:37 ben_vulpes mircea_popescu: you're just being lazy with your funnel metrics
14:37 ben_vulpes i suggest a wordpress plugin
14:38 mircea_popescu ahahaha.\
14:38 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: i was thinking re # that reported for basic training in castle mircea_popescustein, say
14:38 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, consider however the 2nd order effects : i know how they think. can you imagine what that radicalurile could possibly serve ?
14:38 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, well over half.
14:38 asciilifeform neato
14:39 mircea_popescu understand, it's very hard not to agree with me. takes a sort of determination towards idiocy most people lack.
14:39 mircea_popescu dunno about the whole "people are fundamentally good and seeking the light" aristotelian optimism. however most people can't be arsed to do the stupid when it's obvious it'll be wasted effort.
14:42 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, and i'll bet you twentysomething tard dun even know what a gopnik is. and this ignorance does not worry him, "there's this scary not-good dood who said something i didn't even understand" somehow fails to carry the "today is the day you die" signal with it.
14:43 asciilifeform this is sorta like lookig for 'which dodo squawk means 'hunter coming''
14:43 asciilifeform they ain't got one, i suspect.
14:45 mircea_popescu that's how they won the war for mosul
14:48 ben_vulpes i'm still boggled that people appear to outgrow curiosity
14:49 mircea_popescu curiosity dies naturally, much like the ability to learn languages, or the ability to swim.

14:49 mircea_popescu yes, it's inborn in humans. but in the apes we come from it ends within 18 months ; and in people it ends if not artificially maintained also.
14:49 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, they do, else they couldn't speak at all.
14:49 asciilifeform not same thing as adult (i.e. systematized) curiosity.
14:49 mircea_popescu "curiosity" is the atrophied device of what language is learned with ; much like the adult tymus is what's left behind after the "mother's immune protein bank" in children.
14:49 * BingoBoingo taking a break from eating cheese
14:49 asciilifeform as imho very well demonstrated in the linked piece
14:50 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, indeed not.
14:50 mircea_popescu but that's the fork : as times goes by, you either get good at fucking or you stop trying. as time goes on, curiosity either systematizes or dies.
14:50 mircea_popescu in the sad results of the "modern democracy" child abuse rings, it dies.
14:58 BingoBoingo Aite, the local version of crackers suck. Thankfully I picked up a garlic loaf. Split open and loaded with ALL the blue cheese and the white cheese, this might beat the half kilo of ice cream as the most decadent thing I have ate in Uruguay.

14:59 mircea_popescu hey, perfectly respectable breakfast item, bread crust with cheeses and sour cream

15:01 asciilifeform ( was cheapo spready-cheese in su )
15:02 BingoBoingo Ah, the friendship is only sorta spready. Had to spackle over it with Brie
15:04 mircea_popescu anyway, the above is a major point ben_vulpes is making. cooking at home is ~only way to get decent food in orclands w/o spending a benjie a plate sorta deal.
15:05 ben_vulpes aaha.
15:05 ben_vulpes especially us orclands!
15:05 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: there, even benjie/plate doesn't begin to cure
15:06 asciilifeform BingoBoingostan appears to have ample supply of quality dairy tho.

15:31 mircea_popescu nice.
15:32 asciilifeform diana_coman: his latest script barfs on account of expecting to load a turd from shithub
15:32 asciilifeform diana_coman: about 80% in, i think. possibly would actually work if i permitted it
15:32 diana_coman hm, that last 20% ...
15:35 mircea_popescu could just localize it, if so...
15:35 asciilifeform to be very concrete, for all i know , his script ~works~ , i simply was not able to test from that point

16:45 asciilifeform ...closest item to date is the khadeer incident. but that was almost certainly a not-by-named-party creation imho
~ 22 minutes ~
17:07 mircea_popescu there's many dozens of keys that are of dubious origin. who's to know.
17:08 mircea_popescu if i know anything about esltards, it's that far FAR from "i made this so and so, here's the tool binary at the very least, if not source i compiled" they'll instead be "oh nothing happened".
17:08 asciilifeform rright but e.g. 'divisible by 5' is not under category of 'valid rsa mod' no matter how one cuts it
17:08 mircea_popescu it's how they handle their amorous life, finances, education, everything.
17:08 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, i was discussing the dozen gpg generated, sks vintage keys that weren't divisible by 5.
17:08 asciilifeform canhaz phuctorlink?
17:10 mircea_popescu http://trilema.com/2015/more-factored-rsa-keys-and-assorted-other-considerations/#selection-301.0-341.111 etc
17:10 asciilifeform mirrorolade
17:10 asciilifeform all 3 of the given.
17:11 mircea_popescu it's not clear to me what the standard you propose is, but anyway.
17:11 asciilifeform ( you can click the links, incidentally, and immediately learn this )
17:11 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: the standard is ~could have come out of a pc pgptron, e.g. gpg~
17:11 mircea_popescu yes, the time when a key whose N is the product of two numbers nevertheless is discoveref to have factors other than the two prime numbers in question is, indeed, a most rapturous occasion.
17:12 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, as far as anyone knows, that's exactly where they came from.
17:12 asciilifeform there is no known version of gpg that shits or even eats mirrorolade, it can only come out of a purpose-built mutilator, OR one of the various js pgptrons that dun check or produce selfsigs
17:12 mircea_popescu "there is no known" is no argument.
17:12 mircea_popescu indeed, there is no known, meaning anything can be the case.
17:12 asciilifeform argument is that you gotta mutilate any and all of the extant gpgs pretty heavily to get'em to even eat 1.
17:13 asciilifeform and yes it is conceivable that the proggy that produced'em, was given name of 'gpg', somewhere, somehow.
17:13 mircea_popescu you gotta mutilate ssh also to get it to spit out / use the 2k+ broken ssh keys ?
17:14 asciilifeform but has not much in common with what you and i , use. and, more importantly, given 'piltdown man'-stitched-out-of-parts ~random selfsigs, ~anyone~ could have produced the mirrorolade. you can trivially create it for every pubkey in phuctor.
17:15 mircea_popescu afaik this exact discussion ended in 2015 with the showing of how gpg will eat.
17:15 asciilifeform nope
17:15 asciilifeform js shitpgp eats.
17:15 asciilifeform ( jurov found 2 separate ones, they've been in the faq for a while )
17:16 asciilifeform under section VIII .
17:16 asciilifeform hmm 2nd link dead nao!
17:17 asciilifeform ( http://ianpurton.com/online-pgp )
17:18 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: it is also possible that winblowz 'original' pgp eats. but afaik nobody yet tried.
17:21 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, so the standard here is, "a key from the sks system which my gpg at home eats and which is nevertheless not prime and excepting A50591247C8E37A64117B74F78AB527059E13694 / B01584E9F6CB9E76DEA61E2A73786CA0F4EACC4F because reasons and with a special review clause for later on left blank atm" ?
17:21 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: actually i missed 1 : that german thing
17:21 asciilifeform possibly qualifies.
17:21 mircea_popescu the exact problem of "can't specify the denominator" problem discussed earlier.
17:23 asciilifeform ( http://qntra.net/2016/08/phuctor-finds-seven-keys-produced-with-null-rng-and-other-curiosities in vintage lulz ; still digging for the item above )
17:24 mircea_popescu anyway, honestly nfi what's so magical about gpg in your mind. they're just as rsa keys as the ssh set ; and just as debian, and etcetera.
17:26 asciilifeform different and yet-undiscovered orifice.
17:26 asciilifeform ( ~errybody already knows about the debianism. )
17:27 mircea_popescu the way the internet works, everybody already knows about everything on the solid basis of http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-07#1810891 etc.
17:27 a111 Logged on 2018-05-07 18:48 ben_vulpes: i'm still boggled that people appear to outgrow curiosity
17:27 mircea_popescu but sure, i don't disagree, the more it finds the better.
17:29 asciilifeform but really, mircea_popescu , if i find , let's say, a set of breakable pubkeys that with reasonable certainty came from gpg 1.4.10, this will not be a more interesting find than debianized ssh set ?
17:29 asciilifeform imho it -- would
17:30 mircea_popescu in your mind, the chicken is spherical. in practice, the chicken you'd find would come with the usual gunk and mud the "average person" attaches to things. "oh, we were only joking/doing exercise/it's obvious this doesn't count" "oh we researched this and forgot to publish anything" bla bla bla. then the real chicken you found will seem insufficiently spherical to you just like all the others prior.
17:30 mircea_popescu so -- in practice, nope.
17:31 mircea_popescu the debian scandal is unparallelable because for me it made the phase transition from "these are people" to "these are not people". similarily to how the blockchain genesis is more important than block x+1.
17:31 asciilifeform asciilifeform has an obvious and unashamed bias in favour of 0days in ~things he actually uses~ , verily
17:32 asciilifeform in re 'what is interesting'
17:33 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: which these ? ( the victims ? perps ? ..both ? )
17:33 mircea_popescu it's rather comparable to how say that inenarable imbecile murdock changed my view with the http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-02#1692407
17:33 a111 Logged on 2017-08-02 01:17 mircea_popescu: phf reminds me of fucktard murdock "oh, we were first apple store"
17:33 asciilifeform aaaa
17:34 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, zx2c4 's "academics" or w/e you'd call them. the rubber chicken guzzlers, the conference goers, the code-of-conducted, the everyday cuck
17:34 mircea_popescu how do you call them ? doods jammed in traffic on the information superhighway, listening to the atlantic talk radio show.
17:34 mircea_popescu everyone-but-us-and-the-innocent.
17:35 mircea_popescu (innocent here being a way to denote the mentally simple)
17:35 mircea_popescu men-in-tech, the modern man-at-war. wtf do you even call the scum
17:35 asciilifeform academitards quite solidly fall into the most irrevocably damned class of sinner, the knowing type.
17:41 mircea_popescu contrary to all the pretense, there's really 0 difference. "tech journalist" / "academic" / "entrepreneur" / whatever the fuck. i don't distinguish between the doubtless present and in-character very visible "sorts" and "kinds" of african garbage pickers trying to turn the refuse of a great civilisation that doesan't include them into some root paste or w/e they eat. you know for a fact they are so, because the various classe
17:41 mircea_popescu s of london poor two centuries ago, depending as they were upon the continued feeding of the urban midden for their subsistence, DID classify, and a rag picker thought himself different from a bone monger or w/e.
17:42 asciilifeform mudlarks(tm)(r)
17:42 mircea_popescu very similarily, the pile of esltards trying to salvage the remains of french philosophy, british merchantship and spanish bigotry into some kind of whatever that'll get them through the night can not be fucking distinguished from outside ; nor really are functionally distinct. which is how "academics" denied tenure become either entrepreneurs or journalists, or rather both and indistinctly.
17:42 asciilifeform possibly oughta revive this name for'em
17:42 mircea_popescu what the fuck is even the difference between publish-or-perish-i and publish-or-perish-ii ?
17:43 mircea_popescu not like any one among them has anything to say, or anything to contribute, or even has understood anything -- or even SAT DOWN with anything in an attempt, however cursory, to understand.
17:43 mircea_popescu and if they ever did, a la bernstein, it does eventually get washed out.
17:44 asciilifeform well once time asciilifeform went to an entomology lab and there was a glass case with a coupla hundred indistinguishable, to asciilifeform's naked eye, mosquitoes . but for the pest control specialist, the exact species presumably -- matters.
17:44 mircea_popescu i am not yet that advanced. as things stand right now, i can't even explain what'd be the morphological differences. at all.
17:45 mircea_popescu i mean, the specialist will tell you ~something~. counts legs, counts hairs on legs, counts fucking something. then i can take what he said and apply it and not end up in a contradiction.
17:45 mircea_popescu good luck with this fauna, i've not yet seen the wonder where classification was meaningful in any perspective.
17:46 mircea_popescu and whenever classification fails, we know two things : one is that the subject is not worth the mention, hence why they're called "scum" and otherwise not considered ; and the other is that the subject is amorphous, like, exactly, scum.
17:49 asciilifeform to distinguish'em, is only really a productive work if it can be found that they e.g. respond to different ddt.
17:51 mircea_popescu the best model i can summon is indeed the http://trilema.com/2016/the-eastern-rpg/ : there's a "mage" which has 4 spells which do a) 30 dmg + 5x to 1 target ; b) 15dmg + 7x to 1 target ; c) 5 dmg + 3x to 3 targets and d) 10 dmg + 10x to all targets provided a b or c were cast five times prior. then there's an... "assassin", whatever the fuck, paladin, electropostalist, metamicronicist, anything whatsoever -- which (importantl
17:51 mircea_popescu y!) has 4 NOT!!!11-spells but something ENTIRELY-elses, which nevertheless do a) 30 dmg + 5x to 1 target ; b) 15dmg + 7x to 1 target ; c) 5 dmg + 3x to 3 targets and d) 10 dmg + 10x to all targets provided a b or c were cast five times prior.
17:52 mircea_popescu what are they, aspirants to the "middle class" in the exact sense rednecks are aspirants to "the traditional family" and christians aspire to catholicism.
17:52 mircea_popescu none of them will ever get what they seek, for what they seek a) never existed in the fragmentary, orcish way they represent it and b) existed when it did in a context which specifically requires, as an absolute necessity, their non-existence to exist. so....
17:54 mircea_popescu rural mommies all over the soviet union prayed for their children to get "an office job" in the great new state being built ; and before the soviet union was invented the EXACT SAME women, physically identically the same notwithstanding the centuries in between them, were praying for at least one of their sons to be a priest. for the same exact reasons, escapism is fundamentally the losers' adaptation.
17:58 mircea_popescu anyway, very much an open problem, of course. you never know, maybe someday someone actually comes up with some manner of classifying the scum into something.
17:59 mircea_popescu but my expectation is that it'll be purely subjective, "i divide fire into good-useful fire (GUF) such as when i cook, insidious-noxious fire (INF) such as when my pregnant wife smokes and bad-terrible fire (BTF) such as when arson." the guf-inf-btf model is however not a fucking classification of fire.

19:58 mircea_popescu that whole fucking country exists out of bankruptcy law.
