mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-02#1562181 << same way you teach white chicks to twerk and black chicks to handjob. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-02#1562175 << this is not even half a bad idea. bonus : works natively on v lol. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: fucking savagery. and it probably started "for your own good", as these things always go.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-02#1562147 << it is, or at least was, the explanation of "how life begun". nevertheless, this method fails amply for organic compounds : fill a tube with a all the organic compounds you can think dilute in the same solvent, run electrictity through it, congrats you have some lightly chlorinated toilet water. ☝︎☟︎

mircea_popescu: of things for the stronger to take advantage of the obese shithead and b) anyone could get more buttraped by putin, or the world generally, than obama already has.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it's directly evident the most rabid of libertards realised clinton ain't got it ; and are in their grief dealing mode. pronouncements that "the election is rigged" (phrased, of course, as "this was an unedifying year" blabla), assurances that "whoever wins will be a single term president" as if that fixes anything ; even a pretense that putin will take advantage of trump. specifically. as if a) it isn't in the nature

mircea_popescu: That he has been able to surf these scandals regularly as little more than free media opportunities shows that American democracy is in serious need of rehabilitation." << in my view, this settles an ancient point of contention curtis yarvin never manned up to, re "the cathedral" or generally how pervasive, or "in power" the idiots are.
mircea_popescu: "With Nate Silver putting Trump on a 28.8 per cent chance of victory, it’s almost unbelievable that the race could be so close, given the consequences. A Russian puppet candidate with shady business affairs who hasn’t disclosed his tax returns, Trump has spent his campaign alienating minorities, horrifying women, offending religious and military voters, and having his career of awful business behaviour paraded in public. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: ahhh the libertard butthurt pouring out of the election coverage is so delicious.

mircea_popescu: anyway. sigma aldrich sells it for $952.90/100grams, which is indeed laughable.
mircea_popescu: anyway. if they can make meth they can make ethacridine.
mircea_popescu: you can buy it from ~any chem supplier

mircea_popescu: "during college he had various business ventures, including a bar, disco lessons, and a chain letter."
mircea_popescu: the cuban wiki entry is fucking hysterical. lengthy discussion of the shitty jobs the dork did in college. how come none of these go "and then he took rhetorics with elena dragos and was the only one to get a b in any of her classes that decade"
mircea_popescu: aye!
mircea_popescu: evidently using the same plastic surgeon kerry-heintz uses, so there is that going for him!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform btw, wanna bet cuban is sitting somewhere thinking trump really proves he could be president in a decade ?

mircea_popescu: i'm very vaguely following the whole raft of wanna-be leading ladies & other zsa zsa gabors. i recall some pics with him and a model on a boat ; about on par with whatever bs comes out of that meathead who sold out to yahoo, then lost money on every single deal hence and imagines this makes him an entrepreneur

mircea_popescu: this is a fundamental requirement yes.
mircea_popescu: and what you're proposing to do isn't having the computer answer a question ; but it's having the computer tell you what to do.
mircea_popescu: there's a very fundamental difference between bare life, which evolves in between orders of behaviour relayed by computers ("now it's time to wake up! now click here!") and humanity, which uses computers strictly to answer questions.
mircea_popescu: you might be misunderstanding computers. if you sign a tx on the basis of "it's what my node told me to sign", then the node's in charge not you.
