mircea_popescu: in favour of you know, everyone shoving his insanity & watergun into "the same" balloon.
mircea_popescu: used to be latin-1 with $arbitrary fallback, but THAT insanity (koi-9 chgannels, etc) blessfully went away.
mircea_popescu: (ftr this is the irc protocol, even if many clients don't respect it. latin-1 with utf-8 fallback.)

mircea_popescu: a minimum of one month after releasing, you notify the vendor.
mircea_popescu: pro tip : giving the perpetrator of crime early warning is criminal. you notify the vendor MONTHS AFTER release. not at the same time as release. not fucking BEFORE release.

mircea_popescu: mine will just contain centerfolds of old playboys, 1970s, rolling stone magazines, that sorta thing.

A can do whatever he pleases ; B must do whatever he can. guy slaps butt on street, girl turns and coos ; other guy sort-of-asks-girl-out-with-apology-included, girl looks at him like she never saw talking geese before, guy stumbles to his exit stage left. guy is in heaven other guy is in hell, his life is so unfair etc.

mircea_popescu: in any case i'm not saying "you alf, do not do what you want to do because stupid people also do it". i'm saying "you stupid guy, going through the motion of alf as you perceive them doth not make you alf."
