02:31 techrightssec2; My guess it is from autumn 2008 ?

02:34 *u-amarsh04 has quit (Ping timeout: 120 seconds)

02:34 schestowitz-TR; done

02:34 schestowitz-TR; my publication pace has improved lately

02:34 schestowitz-TR; I found a better routine, actually very similar to my 2008 routine in terms of sleep time, article times etc.

02:41 techrightssec2; Excellent.

02:42 schestowitz-TR; no more oddball sleeping paterns

02:42 schestowitz-TR; a lot healthier in the long run too, for both of us

02:42 schestowitz-TR; going to check that ipfs upload works correctly in a moment

02:42 schestowitz-TR; not a repeat of yesterday


3 AM, January 4

03:01 techrightssec2; ack

03:03 schestowitz-TR; cleaned up some leftover files from a failed run

03:03 schestowitz-TR; we don't need ipfs indexes inside ipfs itself

03:03 schestowitz-TR; it's possible though, but maybe pointless

03:03 schestowitz-TR; still a mystery why a file was not copied across yesterday

03:03 schestowitz-TR; it's attempted twice, with hostname, then ip

03:03 schestowitz-TR; maybe network glitch at one end

03:03 schestowitz-TR; i only write rsync verbose to a file

03:03 schestowitz-TR; it was blank for those transactions

03:03 schestowitz-TR; I will start counting how many successful transfers are there in output.txt

4 AM, January 4

04:37 schestowitz-TR; very nproductive day

04:37 schestowitz-TR; no distractions

04:37 schestowitz-TR; ipfs went well

04:37 schestowitz-TR; i did a ton of sanity checks

04:37 schestowitz-TR; draft

04:38 techrightssec2; It's good that the scripts functioned properly over the change of the new year

04:40 schestowitz-TR; yes, I only needed to change one script (mine) to show "2 years ago"

04:40 schestowitz-TR; it's the stats archives for gemini

04:40 schestowitz-TR; in theory I could add a variable and put that in a loop instead

04:40 schestowitz-TR;

04:40 schestowitz-TR; but making a small manual change once a year for a protocol that might not be supported in 10 years is...

04:40 schestowitz-TR; not a priority

04:47 schestowitz-TR; added post summary now


5 AM, January 4

05:14 DaemonFC; I got a few things done.

05:14 DaemonFC; One was I ran by the DMV and knocked out my plate renewal for the year.

05:15 DaemonFC; I try to keep the car free of those "excuse to pull Ryan over" things.

05:41 schestowitz-TR; a. he's gay

05:42 schestowitz-TR; b. he's in this database

05:42 schestowitz-TR; c. married to "alien"

05:42 schestowitz-TR; d. you're not good enough for this kind of car

05:44 DaemonFC; LOL

05:44 DaemonFC; Yeah, then they go looking.

05:44 DaemonFC; "Fuzzy dice on the mirror"

05:44 DaemonFC; "Taillight out."

05:44 schestowitz-TR; "is that smellll.... ?/... "

05:45 DaemonFC; "The license plate sticker is last year's color."

05:46 DaemonFC; <schestowitz-TR> d. you're not good enough for this kind of car

05:46 DaemonFC; They usually save that one for blacks driving recent model year luxury sedan.

05:46 schestowitz-TR; saudi arabia: why are you driving? you have no penis

05:47 DaemonFC; The idea is that if you're black you have no legitimate reason to own a nice thing.

05:47 DaemonFC; What are you doing in a $100,000 car if you're black and not a drug dealer?

05:47 DaemonFC; Is it stolen?

05:47 DaemonFC; :)

05:49 DaemonFC; The really horrible thing is that the cops either actually think like this or just do it because nobody will stop them.

05:50 DaemonFC; Those are the two reasons to behave this way.

05:51 DaemonFC; It's not illegal to make a lot of money legally if you're black, but if you spend it on nice stuff, you attract cop attention.

05:51 DaemonFC; And if you don't, your business clients and associates won't take you seriously.

05:51 DaemonFC; So the whole idea is to keep them down by keeping nice watches off their arms, to keep them out of a nice car.

05:51 DaemonFC; It hurts them professionally.

05:52 DaemonFC; It's like the cops, right, are protecting "territory" from incursions.

05:52 schestowitz-TR; yeah

05:52 DaemonFC; "Real estate, banking, law firms... They're for whites and Jews."

05:53 schestowitz-TR; jealousy

05:53 schestowitz-TR; "I'm a white man, but this black man has nicer car then me"

05:54 schestowitz-TR; *then

05:54 schestowitz-TR; >>than

05:56 DaemonFC; Yeah, so the cops go beat them up and take care of slandering them.

05:56 DaemonFC; And there's more slots for others to succeed.

05:56 DaemonFC; Both directly and because others get the message.

05:58 schestowitz-TR; your mom is like that

05:59 schestowitz-TR; she found out some balcks -gasp - live ina motal

05:59 schestowitz-TR; wait till she finds out some live in a hotal

05:59 schestowitz-TR; *htel

05:59 schestowitz-TR; hotel


6 AM, January 4

06:00 schestowitz-TR; DaemonFC: some black people own hotal (your mom's brain explodes)

06:00 schestowitz-TR; *hotels

06:01 schestowitz-TR; I keep mistyping it

06:01 DaemonFC; She is something else.

06:01 DaemonFC; I can only imagine what they thought of her in Paris.

06:01 DaemonFC; She comes to Chicago and gets souvenirs at the Walgreens.

06:01 schestowitz-TR; there is a song

06:01 schestowitz-TR; "american in paris"

06:02 schestowitz-TR; iirc, by george gershwin

06:05 DaemonFC; I kind of live my day in a strange order.

06:06 DaemonFC; I end up eating breakfast around midnight, going to sleep at 5, waking up at 1, making a pot of coffee, getting Mandy at work, and eating dinner sometime between 2-7 PM.
