mircea_popescu: so i'm, holding
a one pound bag of raisins, "industria argentina" of course,
mircea_popescu: incidentally, i think i'm coming to an actually correct definition of trolling. trolling is the act of providing needed context separated from the message, in
a place where the naive reader (who most needs it) is least likely to find or recognize it.
mod6: Ok, so hopefully will have
a much prettier version of this around the end of the month.
mod6: On
a more philosophical level, I did leave off the idea of ticket 'assignment', simply because I didn't want contributors to not think about
a ticket just because their name/keyid isn't assigned to the ticket.
mod6: But, just wanted to give everyone
a first look at what is possible here. Please let me know if there is problems or glaring oversights, etc. Thanks in advance.
mod6: Yes Sir. Sounds like
a decent plan there.
mircea_popescu: mod6 perl can just dump html pages neh ? run it in
a subdir and that's that
mod6: then it'll print out the full list of tickets. if you run `./t.pl` it'll print out the other available commands. such as "add" "rm" or "edit", inwhich
a person can do that, change their own list, sign it, and send it to the ML or whatever for review.
mircea_popescu: mod6 could this
a) be piped to
a www page on foundation site b) have
a way to ref from here ?
mod6: Hey all, so I wanted to not only make
a list of objectives as we discussed around the 15th, I wanted to also design
a very simple ticket system so we can not only have tickets, but perhaps
a roadmap with dependencies. I.e. in the way that you have
a larger ticket with dependent subtickets. This could help round out
a road map to larger 'sagas' like for this july, and 'ideal bitcoin'.
mircea_popescu: there is such
a thing as genuine neglect. not that i'm proposing it has bearing.
ben_vulpes: wife should be well occupied with children and drive-by-rodgerings, and if children are
a burden american should have neither c nor w
BingoBoingo: <ben_vulpes> from mythical cornfield runway << Quite
a few around here
ben_vulpes: other places where one person was landing uncontrolledly at
a time?
mircea_popescu: no "because"
a mother offers is EVER worth the shit it's written in.
ben_vulpes: falling derps is not the problem, it's collisions unavoidable due to relative speeds and human inability to
a) perceive and b) react in time
mircea_popescu: (computing engineering and airplane engineer have
a lot in common - the fully visible thing is
a security and maintenance thing. just like bash.)
mircea_popescu: suppose in some way you end up in possession of
a world-renowned female for ther buttlove skills.
ben_vulpes: phuctor is phucking nao, mircea_popescu sounds pleased or at least entertained, so i imagine it's bought
a stay from the divestment for
a quarter...
a111: Logged on 2016-04-19 21:54 mircea_popescu: mno. at the rate we're going s.nsa is publishing
a closure statement early may.
mircea_popescu: the ~only game made by classical microsoft (the shitshow that was trying to get windows 3.1 to be something) was
a "flight simulator"
mircea_popescu: there was
a peculiar "I am the X-approved candidate for Y supported by K L and M according to token Q and item W" idiocy i saved somewhere, lemme dig it up.
mats: i should create
a bingo card
mircea_popescu: yeah, on one end of the spectrum. on the other, the very fucking grammar changes, with
a lot of "the x of y" constructions, verbing of nouns, periphrase-by-metaphor and all sorts of weird.
mircea_popescu: the most amusing thing re ustards is, the sheer volume of NAMED entities they need to produce as much as
a paragraph
phf: well, not even
a decenarian math containment then
mircea_popescu: well somehow. you're not an anthropologist. as
a result, you don't have the ability to pick any random culture you wish
mircea_popescu: older derps go for crapolade
a la "bridges of madison country" ; socially awkward derps go for
a spectrum between "ER" and "sex in the city" ; younguns watch ineptitudes more varied.
a111: Logged on 2016-04-24 20:44 mircea_popescu: i kinda got
a hankering for the old "young female is sent to be nurse/teacher/whatever at remote village, discovers and falls in love with local tractor driver" films.
mircea_popescu: as
a proxy for "which will still be around in
a decade vs which will discover drugs" ?
ben_vulpes: relatedly, i get
a kick out of learning which 'business owners' keep seperate books for tax and internal accounting and which do not.
mircea_popescu: [incidentally, saying that some vory ACTUALLY ENJOYS fucking some mary in the ass would have been
a pretty serious insult]
phf: (i was amused because i thought you were saying that usians don't even have
a bitch-track in prison)
phf: which after
a while was adopted into argot as
a term for
a passive homosexual
mircea_popescu: romanian does the same thing, through
a wide array of diminutives.
phf: Man'ka is
a form of Man'ya is
a form of the name Maria
phf: ben_vulpes: russian has
a way to modify words from more formal to less formal using more or less standard rules for changing the root and adding suffixes
mircea_popescu: meanwhile, think from the other perspective : if you were
a moderately powerful producer, what the fuck ELSE would you do than exactly this, trying to cash in some holywood clout for some underworld connections ?
mircea_popescu: i know, factually, they exist. they aren't depicted. why not ? "they wouldn't sell ?" gimme
a break ?
mircea_popescu: consider, where are all the hollywood movies depicting in painstaking detail the lives of the poor tynisha ysais and her boyfriend(s) who offer her sexual services to friends as
a matter of course ? where's the dom com about this set of social security cowsies kept by ex highschool footbal kid ? etc ?
phf: hah, they can't can they. su thieves maintained that support infrastructures of манька's for own purposes, but that's not really
a feature of u.s. prison system. i've not actually thought of that
shinohai: Says he was offered
a job by spooks to do blockchain analysis
mircea_popescu: not like they can cut themselves
a path anywhere. today's jews, like 1930s' jews, are headed where the jews go.
mircea_popescu: not like they can cut themselves
a path in jail, suka-style.
mircea_popescu: i honestly expected he'll blow off the charts, he was incredibly talented as
a young man
phf: i knew
a handful of skinheads in russia through sambo and while i don't share their views i find the movie preposterous. an urban intelligentisa play-believes
a tough guy, gets raped, cries and repents.
phf: i liked norton until american history x, and i'm glad you wrote
a teardown. what
a shitty movie.
mircea_popescu: (also the compete explanation offered privately as to why say pacino is an actor, and norton is
a nobody : showed up at wrong time.)
mircea_popescu: the italians had
a very similar thing going in the 50s as
a result of the state planned "cinecita" in rome. il uomo delle stelle, famously, or stuff like cari fottutissimi amici more obscurely.
mircea_popescu: i'm pretty sure more moscow children were born in the ural as
a result of that cinema push than for any other reason.
mircea_popescu: phf yeah, those were mostly the glory days of soviet cinema, truck caravans with projectors embedded touring the country like
a sort of circus act on steroids. the latter "tour bus" / "cocksucker blues" us star worship stuff but
a pale copy.
mircea_popescu: does anyone happen to remember that [chinese i think it was ?] one where the culmination was some sort of productive inefficiency at
a truck depot driven by gate congestion, so The Rebel backed up his truck into the compound wall tearing it down like straw (apparently back then the chinese trucks weren\t made out of tin foil) and making
a new gate ?
mircea_popescu: i kinda got
a hankering for the old "young female is sent to be nurse/teacher/whatever at remote village, discovers and falls in love with local tractor driver" films.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo> Cucking on Steroids
https://archive.is/wxoti <<< "my wife and i are anything we wish to pretend like we are. here's why we are currently pretending to be 'white evangelicals' while still transparently being redditard lefties : we're too dumb to realise
a world outside of our head exists, and are perfectly happy to live on words."
mats: jesus is
a helluva drug
a111: Logged on 2016-04-22 16:38 asciilifeform: it is to be
a massive batch factor thing.
BingoBoingo: I mean what, it's only
a few hundred Fukushima's worth of waste?
mircea_popescu: (incidentally, this wilhelm being the original architect of the holocaust - not only by proposing that the correct response to "the nuisance" would be an all-worlds (ie, new and old) pogrom "
a la Russe", but even by indicating gas!)
