mircea_popescu: in unrelated (really ?) news, two simultaneous (as in, same second) okcupid messages : GEUINEME, 59, Straight, Woman, Single, 160cm from Miami FL says "You are disgusting ugly piece of humanity !!!! Men like you should be castrated thrown in the desert to be lost forever with never

a point you know. takes all of half an hour to make this switch, be
a berserker for the rest of your life. and his choice of venue is wise, too. nigga prolly throw you mad respects for the move, because it'd be as far as anyone has EVER seen, or heard tale told, the FIRST case
a pale face did something.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: (and also castration, because that's the deep content there, "do not dare be
a man, men can sin". yeah, i'm sure, let's all be women and have things "just happen and occur to us" and hold hands and be victims. anyone say rape's inevitable in this context ? BURN THE WITCH!!1)

a master carpenter, he builds wooden structures at burning man (infrastructural stuff, not "art"). he's been clean for 30 years now, but it's
a constant aa-ing for him. "an acoholic can never be free", etc. i guess it's working for him, but it's hell of depressing mindset

mircea_popescu: "Hoen said the actual drug sellers were the subject of
a continuing investigation by the country's drug squad, although 15 kilograms of chemical precursors for the manufacture of Ecstasy were found in raids on Tuesday."
mircea_popescu: profs do fuck students on occasion (as they well should), but that occasion is rarer than it would be reasonably expected. meanwhile the student body gossip is almost entirely driven by the overactive sexual imagination of the undersexed bois. if the same bois were mere stable hands, relegated to hard labour and
a bed of hay in the barn, just like their proud antecessors actually were, you'd be hearing stories about ho
mircea_popescu: let it further be reflected in teh republican record that having been in
a position to both hear the student body consensus on which of the undegrad sluts fucked which profs as well as through personally being induced in the professoral social circle actually see with mine own eyes the reality of the matter, there's always some exaggeration afoot.

BingoBoingo: fluffypony: Discussion started when luke made
a troll submission to change the "classic" POW and MP said in channel he wouldn't go to war over proof of work change which he later elaborated on Trilema and which was pointed out on QNtra.
fluffypony: if there's
a contentious fork then Bitcoin Core will fork to change the PoW
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu linked
a lulzy story about rape fantasizers visiting those
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: Those seem to be
a coastal thing
trinque: that's
a hard rule of history right there
BingoBoingo: Eh, my copy's not in the original language. Could be
a bad translation.
BingoBoingo pulls out "Fear and Trembling" which I've been reading as
a part of step three
phf: this is similar to concept of ishvara, i.e.
a true divinity of chosen denomination, from the yoga sutras. it's the idea that interpretation allows for non yhvh
ben_vulpes imagines danielpbarron getting
a hold of
a mistranslation of other ancient texts, declaring fatwa
danielpbarron: I assume nothing. They say themselves what "higher power" means >> Because of the
A.
A. policy of
a "God, as we understand Him,"
A.
A. is
a den of demonic activity. In the booklet, Conscious Contact, they write, . . . there are probably as many different ideas about
a Higher Power, or God, as there are people in Twelve Step programs. (p. 8)
trinque: how one can see how it works in "the church" and not elsewhere is
a matter of selective blindness.
☟︎ BingoBoingo can see nothing wrong in
a way of life that offers him the possibility of living to see socialism crushed
ben_vulpes: you're way over there in your church of self-righteous unexamined life, examining everyone else from
a pillar of plugged ears and closed eyes.
danielpbarron: true gods or not, AA claims to be
a non-religious organization and this is
a lie
☟︎ ben_vulpes: danielpbarron: it's
a particular reprogramming that doesn't have much to do with the bible.
BingoBoingo: But, for srs. If I go back to drinking as I did it's only
a matter of time before my portal vein blows out.
BingoBoingo: There's
a difference between searching to stay out of the next life and trying to get to not dying in this one. p44 chapter 4 "We Agnostics" But it isn't so difficult. About half our original fellowship were of exactly that type. At first some of us tried to avoid the issue, hoping against hope we were not true alcoholics. But after
a while we had to face the fact that we must find
a spiritual basis of life - or else. Perhaps it i
danielpbarron: either you are
a liar claiming to believe in
a false god that you know doesn't really exist, or you actually believe in the false god. In either case, your "spiritual progress" is not towards the truth but rather
a damning lie.
BingoBoingo: Also some people relapse which would be embarassing in the organization had
a bunch of public faces.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: People sent by the courts often aren't ready for step 1 and many times violate the criteria for membership by not having
a desire to quit drinking as outlined in tradition 3.
danielpbarron: >> The influence of the
A.
A. society has been massive and widespread.
A.
A. cooperates with
a large variety of groups which includes the U. S. court system. Judges often order people to be involved in
A.
A. as
a part of
a rehabilitation effort.
BingoBoingo: Maybe at some point
a few people can graduate from AA to
A True Church, but atm I am happy with the job Brodin the Allspotter is doing as my higher power. Wheymen.
mats: >But I was born too late to be
a Viking beserker
BingoBoingo: Given the demographic, I doubt the 12 steps could help very many alcoholics and addicts if they were stictly remade in
A True Church (TM)(R)
phf: 9-5, couple of beers to wind down, friday evening everyone gets shit faced at
a bar, year after year.
phf: i agree, for all the jokes about russian vodka, this is
a country of functioning alcoholics, with no outlet.
BingoBoingo: But I was born too late to be
a Viking beserker

☟︎ BingoBoingo: It's also not like I can go into the yard and pluck
a tomatoe for breakfast in the middle of winter
BingoBoingo: Well, need the caffeine from instant coffee mixed in to have the energy to make
a pot of brewed coffee
phf: so rms always had

☟︎ mircea_popescu: i was half hoping hearn would get together with the bitcoin wife and that impossibly named, horsefaced washington staffer chick and create
a hot love triangle of "How I created Bitcoin successfully,
a guide" "Level your DB" etc.
assbot: Logged on 20-01-2016 03:42:08; mircea_popescu: cheapo if desperate trick to get imbecile white ustards to sit still almost enough so
a vague polish of calculus can be transferred to their pudgy skins ?
ben_vulpes: from the bikeportland followup: "Hagg said he thinks the solution to problems like that is to drive troublemakers away." << even the motherfucking /bums/ know that you have to drive the worthless fucks off if anyone's to have
a decent party.

a simple pour-over, not an immersion hybrid.
ben_vulpes bought
a new clever and
a new kettle for the new staffers today to parallelize the coffee production
ben_vulpes: just takes
a paint drying gun and some practice
ben_vulpes: there is no artisanal anything, there are just
a bunch of hipsters competing to roast beans well
ben_vulpes: there's something about working nearly alone as
a sniper versus together with some people you don't really hate all that much as fuel convoy unit
ben_vulpes: "writing in languages i hate with people i love to be used by hominids i'd not waste
a carrot on" or what was it
ben_vulpes: pets consume
a fixed fraction of income, may as well minimize integral of fraction over the next decade or so.
ben_vulpes: am i seriously looking at
a 1k+ logbacklog?
punkman: I can give you
a secret phrase, which if hashed and used as torrent infohash, allows you to get my current IPs from torrent tracker
assbot: Logged on 19-01-2016 23:48:49; punkman: I have
a suggestion for an irc-bootstrap replacement in TRB. UDP torrent tracker announce, only takes
a couple UDP packets, code's pretty simple. Recent client was using this in
a small app, kinda cool.
mircea_popescu: you can also read it online. there's
a link off ofundation website
punkman: I'll post
a python POC to the ml perhaps, could just run it before you start the node and it gives you
a bunch of IPs to -addnode or -connect to
