mircea_popescu: for the same money could run research project into "underground silicone clinics".
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i've not investigated it too closely. who the fuck wants technology for this purpose.
mircea_popescu: anyway. let it be pointed out that reality has specific defenses built in to prevent ~most of what passes for good literature from ever happening.
mircea_popescu: "victim" can spin away in two different directions, so it's at best a 50-50 shot
mircea_popescu: hopefully one day they manage to miniaturize it into a desktop item
mircea_popescu: never before did i realise what they mean by "pellet reactor"
mircea_popescu: "sleepness nights" lol. someone is keyboard mashing in butthurt, such a\ gem.
mircea_popescu: asswipe has the choice of what, either hanging himself or else continuing to pretend he's a woman, and "cisgendered men" victimize it.
mircea_popescu: should be lulzy if we ever pop one of those, with 10k+ deployments.
mircea_popescu: moreover asciilifeform, if bitwise duped fw incl key were that common we'd see a lot more of these, rather than 3-4 at a time
mircea_popescu: well yes, the nature of the connection is unclear as of yet. but it's there.
mircea_popescu: unless of course you believe in the harmonic cosmic ray theory. which i suppose would qualify one for "quantum computing".
mircea_popescu: 85.47.20.* is now connected to 2.116.209.* and 217.57.196.* for example.
mircea_popescu: as a byproduct this is drawing an interesting graph of "who owns what"
mircea_popescu: now, who is to say that female in honolulu SHOULD or SHOULD NOT have a grape ? on what basis ? etc.
mircea_popescu: for example, since it's a funny one - prior to usian invasion, the traditional society of hawaii was nudist ; and women were forbidden from eating anything but tuber paste. no fruit ; no meat ; etc. this arrangement survived for millenia, but went away cca 19th century.
mircea_popescu: what, god should come from heavens and tell that girl elliot's been eyeing that she should go talk to him ; and otherwise gather up all the women and explain to them that they should listen to the men more ?
mircea_popescu: this is in my eyes exactly as it should be. the contorted proposition that "because [we make the meat] therefore [we should tell you what to do]" seems pretty ridiculous. if it is already the case then it's right and proper that it should be the case ; but if it isn't the case then the obvious "oh yeah ? you and whose army ?" sinks the entire argument.
mircea_popescu: the OTHER of them is, "who should tell who what to do". and this is - like everything else involving women - a very much on-demand thing. if you tell her what to do, she will. if you don't, she'll tell you.
mircea_popescu: anyway, there's two separate issues here. one of them is, "who brings food home and who eats". the fact remains that as averages and in general terms, men hunt and women nest. and this is a fact, and very much invariant throughout human society, pre or post letters.
mircea_popescu: even there it's dubious, as the writers of the period do not fail to inform you, from the decameron to the barber of seville.
mircea_popescu: i don't believe the "find a strong man" fantasy he discusses existed anywhere outside of say 1500 italy etc.
mircea_popescu: how practical, well founded, sane etc the state is has no bearing however.
mircea_popescu: therein included - vikings during their fun years ; britain throughout ; the beyazit ottomans and whatever else you may wish to think of.
mircea_popescu: from classical china to pirate jamestown, the state rests on the backs of young virgin males.
mircea_popescu: which historical example do you suspect of being otherwise organised ?
mircea_popescu: this is an invariant throughout human society ; and reasonable.
mircea_popescu: it is pretty good. archive teh google do i qualify thing for prosteriority.
mircea_popescu: (if you notice, trilema is one of the few pages online, and certainly the only domain of that size, that DOESNT import google javascript)
mircea_popescu: that's ok, i really wouldnb't want to be googlehosted anyway.
mircea_popescu:
http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160925/#53 << and yet i bet you that a) it's "cloud" bullshit ie no relation between can and label and b) if i hit them they'll go down faster than a honest 2gb ram dual core dedicated which retails for like 100 bux.
mircea_popescu: also, it's "de rigueur" not "de regueur". wtf is this, regor mortis ?
mircea_popescu: "Atlantic Halibut are Officially OK, but those from the Pacific Ocean are FORBIDDEN. If a halibut threatens to break your knees, especially if your fishmonger operates out of a New Jersey strip joint, enjoy dinner. Salmon is bad unless Sarah Palin shot it." lmao this guy...
