JayDuggerNot relevant to the chat, unfortunately.07:50
JayDuggerAnd you?07:51
LukasThe iGEM team is beginning to get moving, we've got some professors that are going to speak to us on Wednesday so that we can decide what projects are feasible07:59
JayDuggerExcellent.08:00
Lukasother than that, I am thinking of a way to help get biohack.me some momentum so that we can actually start working on projects08:00

ybitso, um, i played my first d&d game last night12:16
ybitand i dreamed about the funny adventures we had12:16
ybithttp://singularityhub.com/2010/04/20/transhumanism-gets-its-own-role-playing-game/12:17
ybiti really want to play eclipse phase now12:17
ybitexcept, i want an rpg where the players knowledge in the scieces is needed for advancement12:18
ybitmaybe that's called rl12:18
ybitturns out there's a lot of h+ talk going on in rpgnet forums because of this game12:21

ybitbecause i am obviously a commoner :D13:01
ybitcoffee + unsweetened tea ftw13:01
ybitso, my prototype looks too much like github13:02
ybittime to change13:02
ybiti'm interested in generating random graphs in the header if the user has js enabled13:03
ybitmaybe i should be using raphealjs, dunno13:03
ybitjrayhawk: if you play ep, i'll gladly waste a night of my life playing with you13:04
jrayhawki have no idea why kanzure is mentioning me; i don't actually care about or like tabletop rpgs in almost any context13:05
kanzureyes but i was complaining to you about eclipse phase13:05
kanzuresomething about jules, i'm sure13:05

ybitwhen you were at BIL13:35
ybitmaybe it was a different bil13:35
ybithttp://www.bulletproofexecutive.com/new-video-dave-aspreys-the-upgraded-self-top13:37
ybitit wasn't terrible talk, but he stated that if you get enough vitamin d, sunscreen isn't needed, and he also stated that you get enough vitamin d from 30 mins of exposure to the sun13:38
ybitso..he's telling me if i stay in the sun for 30 mins each day, i can continue to just skip along the riverbanks for a few more hours without having to worry about sunburn :)13:39
ybiti'm not buying it13:39
ybitand he promotes some gadget from some crazy institution13:40
ybitheartful brain institute or something, i'm too lazy to search through my history for it unless others are interested in discussing it13:41
kanzurei was not at BIL13:44
ybitoh, j.jackson did the bil, i just figured that's where you were13:45
ybitiftf it was13:45

ybitso..skdb..i want a variation of it specifically for science projects14:43
ybitcould just build off of mercurial14:43
kanzuresomeone (eric meltzer?) is making openprotocols.net14:46
kanzurebut it's not really a protocol metadata thingy, but more of a social play14:46
kanzurei.e. meltzer wants his site to get popular through the typical social play..14:46
kanzurebut part of that involves typing up protocols into a better format.. not a much better format, but a format slightly better than "here's a block of text"14:47
kanzureybit: you should also take a look at jonathan cline's work,14:57

ybitkanzure: in ~/bryan/?19:26
kanzuredo you need it?19:35
jrayhawkI expect it's a slightly customized vector-instruction CRT out of an arcade cabinet19:37
jrayhawkor, rather, the hardware isn't customized, but the game it was originally based on is19:38
kanzure"this is what the future of computer graphics will be, man"19:38
kanzuregoogle maps 198019:38
jrayhawkvector CRTs are pretty cool, so i am totally down with that19:39
jrayhawkby-hand compositing is another option19:44
jrayhawkit sure doesn't look rasterised19:44
kanzurei've seen this sort of style in other movies, but i'm not sure which :(19:46
kanzureit's like they are almost saying "hey world, we wanted some cool computer screencaps so instead we stole a buncha neon signs and arranged them like this."19:47
jrayhawktron...?19:49
kanzurewhat?19:51
kanzureoh no i haven't actually seen any of the trons19:51
jrayhawkthe second one is vacuous but spectacular20:00
kanzurei've been listening to lots of daft punk lately20:00
jrayhawkif by "lots of" you mean "the tron legacy album" then i am in support20:01
jrayhawkotherwise i am just sorry20:01
kanzurei mean "lots of looping of" the tron legacy album, yes20:02
jrayhawkoh good20:02
kanzurephreedom: why are't we talking in here20:02
kanzurethis is stupid..20:03
jrayhawklet me know if i should give ybit access to cysteine20:03
kanzurethey are all scared shitless to even mention the word "papers" in here20:03
phreedomkanzure: replied in private :D20:05
kanzureso, i'm a little concerned about the privacy fearmongering20:07
kanzurefirst as a practical matter, i am tired of updating everyone each time someone tries to talk with me privately20:07
phreedomit's standard practice rather than fearmongering20:07
kanzurefurther, keeping track of all of my damn private conversations in meetlog.txt is hard when i can't do computational analysis on everything i'm forgetting to tell people about20:08
kanzurethere's a time and place for privacy.. like when you deploy infrastructure20:08
fennlike when you're a double triple agent20:08
phreedomwhich is quickly raided if it's known who is behind20:09
phreedom....20:09
phreedom*it20:09
kanzureegorochkin from donetsk20:10
kanzurethere, you're fucked now20:10
kanzurenow can we please stop beating from behind the bush?20:10
jrayhawkNEVER20:10
fenni believe in TOR20:11
phreedomok this makes no sense20:11
phreedomand you know why20:11
kanzurei think we should talk about it20:11
jrayhawkit's not me, it's you20:12
jrayhawkoh wait, different kind of talk20:12
kanzureso, worst case scenario20:12
kanzureis that we get everyone to contribute to some sort of paperleaks.org site20:13
kanzureand totally blow up the copyright-publisher-assfucking model20:13
kanzureand then what? companies sue you or me?20:13
kanzurethey don't let me publish in their journals any more?20:13
kanzurei can't live in the US?20:13
kanzurei'm perfectly fine with a completely anonymously run paperleaks.org service20:13
kanzurewikileaks is a bad example of how to run a private operation20:14
jrayhawkThe US or anywhere with active Berne enforcement, which practically means any WTO country20:14
kanzurelen sassaman and a few others from the old cypherpunks group were actively putting together a "good" wikileaks infrastructure20:15
kanzurebasically they realized that the guys running wikileaks.org were probably incompetent when it came to really really good security20:15
kanzurei mean, the type of security, privacy and safety you need when you're afraid of basically every government20:15
kanzure(coincidentally this brand of paranoia requires killing all humans)20:15
jrayhawki thought freenet already existed20:15
jrayhawki wonder if freenet is actually stable yet20:16
phreedomkanzure: if you don't like privacy, you can't start posting your passwords here in this public, logged and google-indexed channel20:16
kanzurei didn't say i don't like privacy, i just think that we have basically nothing worth keeping private right now20:17
phreedom*can20:17
phreedomkanzure: which is not correct20:17
kanzurehow do i know that if you keep making it private from me?20:17
phreedomI don't  mind explaining it privately20:18
kanzurei don't think there's much to explain20:18
kanzurebut i do think that everyone else in here has good insights into secure infrastructures like what would be required for a distributed paper fetching service20:18
kanzure(well, maybe not everyone)20:18
phreedomso you have just provided a list of suspects, on the record20:19
phreedomgood job20:19
kanzurefenn: thoughts?20:26
kanzurefor a book written in the 80s(?) it's surprisingly specific about "developing 5 fablabs by 2015"20:34
kanzurehttp://www.luf.org/Strategic%20Plan/img1.html20:34
phreedomkanzure: all I can say is that to me it appears like you don't have a very good idea of how wikileaks-like orgs are planned, run; what kind of troubles they face and how they work around it20:37
phreedomkanzure: considering the way you handle all this, all I help I can offer is wish you good luck and contribute some code when I see a REAL COMMITMENT, that is when my efforts aren't going to be wasted20:39
kanzurearguably, you don't show a good understanding either (you just claim the details are "private")20:41
phreedomwhen did I claim that the details are private?20:41
kanzureby not talking about them20:41
phreedomall I said is that I refuse to discuss such things in public20:41
kanzureyeah..20:41
phreedomkanzure: if you think you can pull this off by giving everyone a notice long before anything happens, providing enough time to make the leaking effort as hard as possible using technical measures and enough time to collect evidence so that lawsuits and complaints can be filed next day you dare to leak your first paper?20:47
phreedomin theory, this might work, never say no and such20:47
phreedomor maybe your plan is not (only) to leak papers but also go piratebay-style civil disobedience20:48
phreedomI don't know20:48
phreedombut I don't think having 2nd piratebay bunch of guys in jail and with large fines changes anything20:48
phreedomIMHO of course20:49
