phf: there's also hexayurt, which is
a bit more practical then geodesic dome
BingoBoingo: Seriously though House that readily fits in crates is awfully portable. Live like
a modern mongolian.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> among the folks i work with is
a fella who sat in, i believe,
a genuine trench << Decline was from double digit portion of the poplution to low single digits
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: "giving her
a choice in how pay her penalty." << ftc piece
☟︎ phf: i just got
a word document with
a virus in it. i didn't know this was still
a thing
gabrielradio: then again, i should probably wander
a bit more irl too. maybe to buenos aires for some mp mentoring :D
gabrielradio: yea, i should probably wander
a bit more there too
mircea_popescu: oh and - consider giving eulora
a try ? huge demand for noobs atm, can make
a satoshi or two rather easily.
assbot: You rated user gabrielradio on 14-Oct-2015, with
a rating of 2, and supplied these additional notes: Apprentice Trilema translator..
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: also, much better about page. name, pic, pgp key.
a cv even won't hurt.
cazalla: and apologies for drunken antics last night, had been quite
a while since imbibing
mircea_popescu: in other news, i'm kinda curious to see how long until
a brave psychologist comes up with the interesting theory that overmotivation produces more stress than anything else, and overselfconfidence produces derealization more than anything else. "i know how to resolve the epidemic of stress+derealization! demotivate and undermine confidence in people!!1"
cazalla: ;; later tell gabriel_laddel is morphine paleo or what? seriously though, seems terrible advice for most people, don't see how it'd be anything other than
a short term solution leading to bigger problems
mircea_popescu: compare the number of people who sat in
a trench cca 1950 with the number of people who sat in
a trench today (ie, 0 - and no, air conditioned crapola doesn't count.)
mircea_popescu: yeah, but back then there was
a significant commercial and liberal professional class that kept it at bay, and
a large contingent of ex soldiers, ie, people with direct experience.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile there's literally one million life coaching/business tecniques/seductionining/blabla "experts" that'll teach anyone how to be
a mega everything + successful.
mircea_popescu: turn it any way you want - you're still digging in the dirt with your hands. there's gotta be
a better use of one's time.
mircea_popescu: to my eyes it's sorta like the pedo dude who spends
a summer to dig
a hole in the dirt where to keep 12 yos.
phf: actually one van dweller i knew was this nasty, 60 year old hippie dude, sort of ram das like character. i think all he did was cruise from one west coast hot spring to another. he would always have an utterly zonkered, 20 year old, supermodel looking girl in his van, every time i'd run into him,
a different one.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform he had
a sit-down with chris ballas and theo de raadt, and they agreed to be good boys and eat the creampie.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i dun think so much enchained by thinking car is necessary as fully aware that without
a car she has to know how to do
a whole raft of things.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: typical usian cow is more enchained by thinking it's necessary to have
a car than
a better person for having one
mircea_popescu: lol. methinks your notions of gypohood may be
a tad informed by entertainymedia.
mircea_popescu: you know the rule, for to be
a marrigeable young gypsy fellow, do you ?
phf: i was at
a "van life" talk at burning man, and womens there were certainly selected for their fertility
ben_vulpes: with
a whole brood of thieving children to live off
ben_vulpes: dun get me wrong imma get
a whole litter here sooner or later
mircea_popescu: hustling. it's
a thing, like programming. "pushing buttons on
a keyboard all day ?" myeah, somethinglikethat.,
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel> MP has already reported that idiots in BA don't hustle on weekends. Hustle on weekends <<< this is actually
a killer plan.
gabriel_laddel: I could have sworn you had
a post in which the conclusion was "bring them along".
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel he's married, and with
a kid on the way.
gabriel_laddel: I have
a few obligations to take care of here in the US first.
☟︎ gabriel_laddel: just hop on
a cruise ship and don't get back on when they leave the port
BingoBoingo: <punkman> "Out of
a 38,615,161 United States dollar judgment against the firm and Sonny Vleisides the firm is to pay 15,000 and Sonny Vleisides is to pay 4,000." << so they only have to pay $20k out of the $38 mil? << Yes, then Jody/Dora the explorer has to pay either $XXX,XXX or Bitcorns
gabriel_laddel: ;; later tell cazalla Also, why not just leave Aus? Take
a boat to BA or Montevideo. Don't come back.
gabriel_laddel: ;; later tell cazalla Have you tried morphine for your pain? It is possible to maintain
a habit and be productive (ex: William Halsted).
jurov: and bitbet finally got another banner?
a bit gnarly, tho
mircea_popescu: really,
a fascist derp shat in his profession ? never heard of!
assbot: Logged on 23-07-2015 04:01:30; mircea_popescu: trinque as
a boy, i was very distraught to find from my mother that if one invents something, he doesn't merely have to say what it should be
mircea_popescu: see alf, odds are i'll move to palo alto for
a free raping and looting monthlong session, end up having to pay
a parking fine. you however will go down for 775 consecutive life sentences of
a crow + 412 consecutive life sentences of
a parrot for being
a criminal in your criminal ways that include nothing in particular.
mircea_popescu: the sale at public auction without reserve of
a bahamas daughter does not compare.
mircea_popescu: the us bent over and took it in the ass from
a bunch of marginally literate calabrese peasants of vague greek ethnicity.
assbot: Logged on 18-02-2016 18:44:46; linton_s_dawson: I thought about what may improve the TMSR infrastructure and figured that the logs themselves are somewhat difficult to navigate. "Catching up" with the logs means reading through the whole conversation until you stumble upon what matters. I.e. "
a new patch was proposed" or "MP uncovered the next scam in the making".
mircea_popescu is too lazy to fish the thing out from the forum where he is going to "answer any questions", mpoe-pr asks
a few and that's the last he's heard from, ever, in any btc anything.
mircea_popescu: let's not forget that sonny vleisides is
a convicted 'ndrangheta captain, who was doing business while on parole in violation of the terms
punkman: "Out of
a 38,615,161 United States dollar judgment against the firm and Sonny Vleisides the firm is to pay 15,000 and Sonny Vleisides is to pay 4,000." << so they only have to pay $20k out of the $38 mil?
mircea_popescu: wtf bullshit togo of
a country you got there asciilifeform !
ben_vulpes: imagine logs as forum threads, where
a link to
a previous log line bumps the whole thread
ben_vulpes: ;;later tell linton_s_dawson
a robust thread-tracker would be very nice.
danielpbarron: well the ordered list isn't logs, it's
a list of links to the log, the text of the link is
a number
danielpbarron: the weirdness is that i put
a block quote in
a list item in an ordered list
punkman: I can see
a summary subscription thing making some money eventually
peterl: sounds like
a way to make pennies per hour (if you are lucky)
peterl: advertising revenue is
a bad business model
linton_s_dawson: So the idea is to create "The b-
a chronicles" that will highlight important events/discussions/propositions with links to the context. Catching up will boil down to picking
a specific date and seeing what happened on that day in
a simple manner with links to the context.
linton_s_dawson: I thought about what may improve the TMSR infrastructure and figured that the logs themselves are somewhat difficult to navigate. "Catching up" with the logs means reading through the whole conversation until you stumble upon what matters. I.e. "
a new patch was proposed" or "MP uncovered the next scam in the making".
☟︎ shinohai: I should make
a BitBet as to whether Donald Trumps sues Pope Francis over his comments today.
danielpbarron: if we're gonna compare
a stake in
a company to
a single cow.. it's quite the remarkable cow; one which you can add and remove meat easily without bothering the beast, and milk it too!
adlai: arguably, now that bitbet is getting more advertising, punkman owns part of
a brand; practically speaking, one can't buy the bitbet brand without enriching punkman
a little (short of shorting s.bbet
a lottle)
danielpbarron: i think
a dividend is more like
a consolation prize
danielpbarron: i don't really look at my coinbr unless i see
a trade cross
a new price
trinque: you're opposed to folders in
a build tree having their own makefiles?
trinque: there was
a thread about the folder structure I produced
mircea_popescu: peterl can't the guy have
a preference ? and then pass it off as reasonable ?
adlai waits for MIRI to close shop, concluding that from
a purely utilitarian point of view, grey goo is really best for everyone involved
adlai: asciilifeform: hearsay traces back to the paper! the team claims not to seed with
a single pro game.
mircea_popescu: (i don't believe in teaching go. which is to say - i do not believe there is
a single thing you can say to
a new player whicfh provably does more good than bad.)
mircea_popescu: it's not necessarily
a bad approach, i guess, but it doesn't make for
a good player.
