00:49 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: data entry of btc transactions and usd transactions is complete; data entry for prepaid customers and monthly paying customers is quite nearly so. BingoBoingo: please dig through notes and break customer nrCgvFMWCqpO's october payment into one for the rockchip and another for the shell. since they have different time horizons, they need separate subscriptions. asciilifeform: next thing i do is
00:49 ben_vulpes write the calculator of change in customer equity account for a given month (which is the biggest manual backbreaker); after that i will do depreciation on the tangibles by hand, update assets and liabilities tables.
00:50 ben_vulpes BingoBoingo: logs suggest we have 2 outstanding wires; i don't suppose either have cleared yet, have they?
00:51 ben_vulpes BingoBoingo: please also stand up a postgres somewhere convenient for me to import and continue to work on this spreadsheet; this is ready for you to do your own data entry on fiat/btc incoming/outgoing

13:40 mircea_popescu meanwhile in other lulz, here's anglopedia official sendoff on brejnev : "For Gorbachev and his adherents, Brezhnev came to personify everything that was wrong with the Soviet regime. The popularity of Gorbachev's program among Western specialists, and the interest generated by the new leader's dynamism after the boring stasis of Brezhnev's later years, precluded a reappraisal of Brezhnev's career until 2002, when a group of
13:40 mircea_popescu younger scholars picked up on Brezhnev's growing popularity among certain members of the Russian population. These people remembered with fondness Brezhnev's alleviation of their or their parents' poverty, a relief made all the more striking by the extreme impoverishment experienced by many in the post-Soviet era. This reassessment may appear unwarranted to those who prize political liberty above marginal increments in materi
13:40 mircea_popescu al consumption."

19:50 mircea_popescu speaking of http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-23#1853297 : there's an amusing parallel between the lulzcourt of http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-05#1869594 "re-habilitating trotsky", and a very similar device "re-habilitating" gilles de rais, joan of arc's imago in medieval france. now that one actually http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-01#1877727
19:50 a111 Logged on 2018-09-23 22:14 asciilifeform: there's a reason they try to set up 'fucked 17yo' for these, it is a kind of gold standard, rather like the old 'trotskyite counter-revolutionary activity', tends to put a cork in all discussion in derposphere by harnessing the healthy hatred for podesta-style pedo, insta-alchemizes accusation into 'guilt', etc
19:50 a111 Logged on 2018-11-05 16:27 mircea_popescu: amusingly enough, there's actually two distinguishable pantsuit trends to this day, a mystagogical cvasi-elitism spawned from boas and a mechanicistic mammie-ism visibly spawned off dewey.
19:50 a111 Logged on 2018-12-01 23:41 asciilifeform: i'm prolly the wrong fella to do it tho, very much not unbiased, i'll still like the character even if time machine supplies incontrovertible proof that he was a cannibal and ate hot chix erry morning for breakfast
19:52 mircea_popescu this thing was some shit to behold, a "grandmaster of masonic lodge" plus some ex-unesco http://trilema.com/2017/in-case-you-were-wondering-where-all-the-worthless-nuland-drones-ended-up/ , ex government ministers, assorted http://trilema.com/2013/the-sops-or-what-might-you-expect-from-government-clerks/ and other nexi of gross malignant incompetence got together and declared "how things should be", free from any involvement

19:54 mircea_popescu hey trinque, does !!register <newykey> and decripting otp work to replace old key with new ? or is it hand-cranked ?
19:59 BingoBoingo In other news, some kid up in Salto became the first case of Leishmaniasis in Uruguay
20:02 mircea_popescu ew.
20:05 BingoBoingo Thankfully Salto is about as far from me as possible in Uruguay, but...
20:05 mircea_popescu leprosy lite.
20:05 BingoBoingo yeah
20:08 BingoBoingo But will the Uruguayos stop being poor and start pressure washing the Pichis off the street? I have my doubts until the redditbags start inflating
20:08 mircea_popescu nfi what that has to do with anything, sandflies aren't bum driven
20:10 BingoBoingo If they can't clean up bums, I have my doubts they can clean up the sandflies
20:11 BingoBoingo If the bums got "derechos humanos" the sandflies gotta have "derechos sandflies"
20:14 mircea_popescu some places had success with nightly plowhing of beaches.
20:14 mircea_popescu those places are large, rich, landlocked countries with small shorelines. not poor new world/africa shitholes with more beach than real estate.
20:16 BingoBoingo Beaches in Montevideo get plowed, but not nightly. Salto's not much of a beach town. More of a hot springs town. On the Uruguay river rather than the big one

21:14 asciilifeform http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-06#1878666 << iirc that lulzfest hinged on a 'cui bono' ( the folx who nailed de rais got to eat his estate ) , i can't picture what else tho

21:15 asciilifeform gotta wonder what made him an attractive figure to'em for 'rehabilitation' tho
21:17 asciilifeform iirc d00d was an early specimen of the 'how to become millionaire? start as billionaire!' dynamic, rather than mega-hero
21:18 mircea_popescu eh, there's this http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-06#1878657 "search for republic on own terms", "gilles WOULD HAVE SEEN MY TRUE WORTH!!!" nonsense.
21:18 a111 Logged on 2018-12-06 00:10 asciilifeform: wild folx screaming into the wilderness with no rhyme or reason
21:23 mircea_popescu it's often enough how http://btcbase.org/log/2014-07-19#761494 items found themselves in lordship positions cope with the obvious disparity between ability and necessity -- find some "jesus would understand me" icon to http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-28#1875661

21:23 a111 Logged on 2018-11-28 01:35 trinque: drug users (see: g_l) do this, go around declaring doctrines like lisplinux-chimera god and inventing pegleg rituals of devotion to her
21:25 mircea_popescu "the republic with dead mp", as it were. i fail to see the difference between trotskite dewey, derais-ite cowley, or wtf was that lulzy irc channel...
