felipelalli:
nubbins`: you said "don't worry, you're new" something like that.
ascii_field:
nubbins`: academic, though. food is scarcely a tenth of it

nubbins`: if i worked in a cubicle, the last thing i would do is buy a pogo and mess with it << what did you buy and play with instead? a nagant, testing how it feels in the mouth, as in mircea_popescu's 'dulap' story ? <<< not in so many words :P
ascii_field: <Chillum> his hostile code should have sat dormant for 6 months, then someone with no obvious connection to him should have got the ticket << i suppose this is when
nubbins` says 'learn the dark marketz, anyone can!' and mircea_popescu tells us about the superiority of human dark org vs relying on machines
ascii_field:
nubbins`: the only thing that'll make alf walk away is alf <<
nubbins` would probably be rather surprised to learn that - other than the physical separation from wildlife (e.g.,
nubbins`'s roommate) - i have very few luxuries
ascii_field:
nubbins`: maybe once you get enough toys it'll be a fair trade << all the toys i buy put together are dwarfed by the cost of living like a human being (e.g., not having rabid hyenas in my home, nor within 100 metres, etc.)

ascii_field:
nubbins`: but i'll note that this is a problem with alf, not with walking away << i've noticed that even you have exhausted your patience with the bipedal rabid dog in your home...
pete_dushenski:
nubbins`: how is it that longer trips don't suffice ? suffice for what ?
pete_dushenski:
nubbins`: oh you're busy nao ? what happened to mr. man of leisure of twodogslandia ?
nubbins`: i'm serious: <+
nubbins`> lobbes truly foolhardy is the man to whom i serve as an example
lobbes:
nubbins', your example leaving your 61k job is validating my similar decision to eventually leave my new job for something less lucrative but more sane
mircea_popescu:
nubbins` you know, just because your job sucked doesn't mean work sucks.
pete_dushenski:
nubbins`: guessing that 61k is pre-tax, i'll guess 20k savings. i'm guessing you've got skill in this saving domain.
mircea_popescu:
nubbins` it's when you stop contributing to an idiotic community and just keep for yourself.
mircea_popescu: not everything's insurable
nubbins`. specifically : insurance works for individuals. i was discussing the country/western world.
adlai also wonders wo what degree
nubbins` has "gone galt", perhaps without being consciously aware of the concept
pete_dushenski:
nubbins`: ya how does that actually work financially ?
adlai:
nubbins`: well you can have all the right puzzle pieces on the table, yet not see the picture
mircea_popescu:

adlai: well it's more towards
nubbins` who seems to have trouble getting across what was said quite aptly millenia ago
mircea_popescu:
nubbins` all about how and why would one go in the water, whether there's breathing, ample considerations.
mircea_popescu:
nubbins` honestly i thought you were kinda dumb for the entire interval, but in a reserved sort of way.
nubbins`: <+
nubbins`> now, at this point, i'd like to take the opportunity to inquire as to what the general consensus is, among those present, regarding my intelligence, wisdom, and overall sensibility
adlai:
nubbins` seems content to swim, or clutch driftwood, after taking the hatchet to his yacht

nubbins`: consider how quickly your tongue healed the last time you bit it hard enough to draw blood and oaths
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu:
nubbins`it's that pain in general is bad, and to be avoided
mircea_popescu:
nubbins` what i don't get with all the libertards is why exactly they imagine oppression is a bad thing.
pete_dushenski:
nubbins`: i can barely imagine your face the first time you bought a bitcoin
mircea_popescu:
nubbins` for the record, traditional (european) cooking happened around this large flat table of very thick oak
☟︎ mircea_popescu:
nubbins` nah, just, wood stuff was cheap. you'd go through multiple sets each year np
mircea_popescu:
nubbins` what i said was that the kitchen's the worst place to share with some whoever. it is.
