ybitbacterial calculator...13:33
ybiti know it's been done... linkage anyone, i can't find because i apparently suck at life13:33
ybitalso, some guy from the diybio list is talking to me, mentioned something about a nightcrawler calculator13:34
ybit..he can't find it and neither can i, if anyone recalls this, knows who did it, that would be interesting to read as well13:34
ybitpretty sure it was done by some IGEM team previously13:36
ybitthe bacterial calculator13:36
ybiti wonder who that guy really was13:37
ybitpidgin told me that convolutingconsciousness@gmail.com wanted to add me as a friend13:38
ybiti add him and his email shows up as emancipatedsquirell@gmail.com13:39

ybits/used/use13:41
kanzureyou can set your display name to be whatever, on gmail13:52
kanzureso one of those is his display names ("alias")13:52

ybitthe internets were wrong!18:09
ybitwas trying to clean the ccd/low pass filter of one of the webcams using a cheap-o method of applying scotch tape, now all i see is residue from the tape :\18:11
AlonzoTGWho is the real Nick Bostrom?18:12
kanzureanders sandberg18:12
AlonzoTGI remember reading some of the drafts of Nick Bostrom's FAQ of transhumanism,18:12
ybithttp://i.imgur.com/cG8Qh.jpg18:12
AlonzoTGand it was a total fanboi piece.18:12
AlonzoTGfor uploading.18:12
AlonzoTGBut now I read the final copy and it is reasonably objective and well balanced.18:13
kanzurenick bostrom's FAQ was just him putting his name on someone else's FAQ, actually18:13
kanzureit was originally a collaborative piece of writing18:13
kanzureanyway, bostrom doesn't really matter18:13
kanzureanders does most of nick's writing these days anyway18:13
AlonzoTGHA!18:13
AlonzoTG=P18:13
AlonzoTGI must say that anders has an impressive intellect and is an amazing scholar...18:14
kanzureuh18:14
kanzurethe dude flaked18:14
ybitsebastian never got back with me on an email i sent to him about gitduino18:14
AlonzoTG???18:14
ybitmaybe i was filtered as spam or something18:15
kanzureybit: you can bug him in #reprap (sebastienb)18:15
kanzureAlonzoTG: ending up as a professor of philosophy? come on..18:15
AlonzoTGI have read some of Anders' writing and was most impressed with it despite strongly disagreeing with it.18:15
kanzurehis job wasn't to impress anyone18:15
ybiti go there first, but never see him18:15
AlonzoTGWhat do you think is his job?18:15
kanzurehe's presently working at oxford under nick bostrom18:16
kanzurebut he used to be a transhumanist18:16
AlonzoTGI like thinking of myself as a quack philosopher myself so I hold people who seem to be doing it at least partly right in high regards.18:16
AlonzoTG???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????18:16
AlonzoTGI don't understand.18:16
kanzureoh so all of your uploading paranoia is just philosophy?18:16
AlonzoTGI was certain that Anders was and is still a very hard-core transhumanist.18:17
kanzurejust because he hosts the website?18:17
kanzure*that website18:17
AlonzoTGNo, I have concrete proof that there is a nucleus of hard-core uploaders who would rather see a few quadrillion tons of computronium in place of the Earth, of that I have proof.18:18
kanzurei don't have time to go through these logs but basically your paranoia is that you think someone is coming to get you RIGHT NOW and "upload" you in the wave of computronium18:19
kanzurechanging stories isn't fair on me18:19
kanzureinconsistent trolls are the worst :(18:19
AlonzoTGI'm sorry that you were basing your opinion of me on a misunderstanding.18:19
ybitengineers without borders and OSE would fit nicely18:20
kanzureyou'd think so, but EWBs for some reason are really into IP18:20
ybithrm18:21
ybiti'll be heading to a few meetings before long, the guy i spoke to yesterday was highly interested in the OSE concept18:22

AlonzoTGOSE = ?18:22
kanzureAlonzoTG: http://www.ted.com/talks/marcin_jakubowski.html18:24
JayDuggerOpen Source Ecology18:25
ybitanyway, a platform to tie them and others together would be even nicer18:27
ybit*cough*18:27
JayDuggerI could certainly use their compressed earth bricks.18:30
ybitJayDugger: for what18:31
ybiti want it too18:32
ybiti bought some feed bags recently, starting construction on an eartbag building soon18:32
JayDuggerOh?18:32
ybitoh.18:33
JayDuggerHow will you use the building?18:33
ybiti don't know yet, i don't like the idea of a gasifier to produce my energy, so i'm thinking of just making a community workshop (hackerspace)18:34
ybitor a building to hold all my stuff18:34
ybitthat made no sense18:35
JayDuggerThe gasifier's a bit off-topic, but the rest made sense.18:35
ybitwell.. it's perfectly on-topic since it's in the middle of nowhere and you have to get energy somehow :)18:36
ybitit just wasn't tied in very well and still isn't18:36
JayDuggerI understand better now.18:36
ybitthe only other option is solar or throwing down some large wooden poles that won't go away18:37
JayDuggerWhat use would the "large wooden poles" have?18:39
ybitfeeding power from the grid18:40
JayDuggerOh. Duh.18:40
ybitkanzure: is sebastian ever online?18:42
ybiti never see him on #reprap18:42

AlonzoTGHome fabrication is great and all but the only thing I care about is bionic boobies, If it doesn't have to do with bionic boobies, it isn't transhumanism. =P21:19

AlonzoTG=P21:46
AlonzoTGWell, bionic only because it sounds good with boobies, no other real reason... On the other hand, achieving sizes on the order of several tons would seem to require bionic augmentation...21:47
