asciilifeform: ( and who the FUCK cares that something doesn't work uniformly on e.g. microshit ? )
trinque: can't really judge the thing on keybindings. they're right there to change
jurov: pls don't ask me anything about emacs. i use (neo)vim. tried several times to use emacs and gave up in anger - for example, there isn't even universal keystroke to change between windows/close a window.
trinque: I would stand by the claim that emacs *can* be a time-sink, just as moving your desk around the office each day can, but it doesn't have to be, and isn't inherent in the tool
trinque: I don't venture too far down the tree of possible customizations beyond assemble workbench, make tools readytohand, start working
trinque: didn't take that long to get to the point where I can throw tiled window arrangements on screen with a few keyboard twitches
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, but you idiots being what you are i can't discern if it's "backwards pistol is every grenadier's problem because it fires backwards" or "bayonett is every recruit's problem b ecause attempts to sit on it".
trinque: asciilifeform: isn't one, can sit in the next vpatch
douchebag: in the event I don't find any vulnerabilities that week
mircea_popescu: if all this "milkmaid didn't cut it as duchess" patter ends up drowning out http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-19#1826891 ima be pissy. ☝︎
douchebag: The problem is, I have a lot of things going on in my life and I need a source of income. I don't have time to work on projects right now without ending up homeless.
mircea_popescu: douchebag looky, the place's not for you. you're not smart enough to be here. what's so hard to grok about this ? some people are smart, some people aren't smart, you're not smart. what, you have to be dragged out, your legs don't work, what is it ? ☟︎☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: ( recall, iirc 2015, some kid strapped a , what, 'beretta', to quadcopter, which -- possibly surprisingly -- wasn't banned yet; the next day picked up for 'childporn' )
mircea_popescu: if i everyone wasn't such a fucking retard, we'd have a lawyer joined up by now, and i could sponsor his clerical costs to send amici briefs to each and every single case involving "digital evidence" arguing it's a govt plant.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, i am actually willing to go on the record saying that had the russians either a) retreated more intelligently post revolution, which wasn't entirely unsupported or unsimpathized in romania or b) stayed the fuck out of land they, like anyone else, ultiately DIDNT EVEN WANT jesus christ,
mircea_popescu: (which it genuinely was, if anyone knows what the fuck chaos revolutionary years were, it;s a wonder somebody didn't steal the hermitage buildings altogether)
asciilifeform: so, idea is , he didn't want ro to end up a persia ?
mircea_popescu: "can't do large scale anything without oil"
mircea_popescu: ("the solution is, don't pay them in money, they want to be paid in lottery tickets")
mircea_popescu: this is the deep dispute between trotsky and stalin : the former tried to continue lenin in this exact manner, and it didn't work out for him.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is not true, however. he had an !!up, from cuccia, as discussed yest. and they knew "who he is", so that wasn't the impediment either.
mircea_popescu: (not that i'm proposing the "actually had" people in it had any fucking sense. that they didn't shoot mora the day of his "appointment" speaks volumes to the sort of retarded goatfuckers we're dealing with here.)
asciilifeform: what part of mussolini puzzles mircea_popescu tho? is it the part where he picked the unwashed lusers over sicilians ? as i understand, he couldn't have 'picked' the sicilians, given as he wasn't anyone in their wot. he was of, and for, the unwashed.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i can't help it, i'm psychologically threatened by ~partially working~ machinery. how the fuck does it juice apples but not oranges, this juicer ?
mircea_popescu: mcdonalds/walmart adapt to the exact needs of each customer coming in! ask them! and if this adaptation isn't obvious to you, it's because they are already perfectly adapted as they are. ask them!

mircea_popescu: nah, they have the tetrapak milk here. for some reason they don't understand milk.

hanbot: !!rate douchebag -3 Pretentious exam taker that won't read to save his life.
hanbot: don't imagine the kneejerk retort of it "wasn't intentional" is going anywhere. it was intentional, you're the degree of moron whose intentions are hidden from "himself", assuming we'll pretend there's a "yourself" to be hidden from in the first place. which we mostly don't. isn't this beautiful, he magicallly knows how everything goes, even how to sort things, starts with the fuck you, everything. just as long as it's pro-inca, 'cause being a re

asciilifeform: i'm almost surprised it hasn't become standard in usa. devil knows, ameri-coffee is clearly not fit for mouth.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-18 17:02 mircea_popescu: looks more like "we too want to eat cake, but not using mouth." even if they manage to shove some cream up butthole, it still won't taste that good.
BingoBoingo: !Q later tell shinohai http://btcinfo.sdf.org/blog/spain-welcomes-moors.html << Since you don't have comments, Moors are a specific kind of black people.
BingoBoingo: I haven't investigated the wikipedo timestamps for this perversion
BingoBoingo: Wikipedia before alf published his cr50 expose had an article on Fritzchips. Now it doesn't
mircea_popescu: "if you like your counterfit identity, i recommend you don't look into how it was produced".

mircea_popescu: and consider also the makework angle, it's fucking beautiful. so german-italy, as a thoroughly nosnese piece of fanfic/wank, needs some sort of something to hold it together. what do they pick ? oh, eritrea! which they can't do, but need german airplanes etcv for (and still can't do). meanwhile sicilian-italy'd have had no such problem at all, THEY don't need eritrea for anything.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: sicily didn't much care for il duce's 'star topology' nonsense. hence 'german orders' not 'men of honour'
mircea_popescu: it is clear to the dork that he has to pick one, and notwithstanding his very model comes to life for him to warn against following the former (in the uncertain terminology of "you'll end up germans' bootblacks"), nevertheless he doesn't pick reality. because he can't pick reality, because he's a ghost not a person.
mircea_popescu: yes, but then the farmer seats bull at table, and spends the evening wondering why the chair doesn't seem to fit and why this fellow won't say grace with him.
mircea_popescu: and this is, also, the deep justification of nazism. "if they actually flatten the modern democracy science & reason idiots, we don't even care if there's no more jews".
asciilifeform: btw one pheature of lenin & co that gets vehehery little press these days , when folx like to point out 'he didn't overthrow , other factions did all the work' : lenin & co refused, out of principle, to participate in any 'temporary government' derpage at all. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: ~this~ is the fundamental reason the tsar got killed ; lenin isn't so much a "bolshevik" as he is a decadent, in this proper sense : "by fucking god ima hang all of you", spoken 1890.
mircea_popescu: there's some depth here : talk psychiatry works for intelligent people only, and even then dubiously ; chem psychiatry does not work, at all, except it does disorient. this is sufficient in some views, in the sense that humans can't distinguish dizzy cows from plain cows, and angry bulls are kinda scary. so it's the perfect "solution" to the problem of "unruly nigger". cheaper than the previous perfect solution (which was als
asciilifeform: oh ha mircea_popescu has fleanode spamola turned off on his console, doesn't he.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-15 02:13 mircea_popescu: this very much ~wasn't~ the first mention of bitcoin on trilema, there's earlier march http://trilema.com/2011/de-ce-trebuie-protejat-angajatul/#comment-43648 and april http://trilema.com/2011/guvernul-cu-rata-de-succes-33/#comment-47237 mentions by a fellow named gheorghe
mircea_popescu: "risks to undercover agents", in every fucking manual/imperial discussion/whatever since the days of edgar hoover (who didn't permit it, btw, and for this reason) is specifically that exposure to violence renders slave incapable of "readjusting" to "normal" environment.
mircea_popescu: nobody buys an ipad because "otherwise they'll get shot by LAPD". they buy the ipad because "i am so fucking stupid, i literally can't tell the difference between this piece of shit and a working programmable machine".
mircea_popescu: esthlos the atempt to weave practical thought and ideology isn't even fruitless ; i believe the symmetry described is truthful and informative.
douchebag: mircea_popescu: The reason for the negrate wasn't exactly clear.
mircea_popescu: who even knows, i can't distinguish the angled eyed.
BingoBoingo: Argentina drew to Iceland, Spain drew to Portual... Russia put up five points against the Saudis... If Uruguay can't break 12 against they Saudis what is they world coming to.
asciilifeform: but as it is i can't summon any interest
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: here's where i admit that i also can't bring self to watch 1st 10. or for that matter, the in-between
BingoBoingo: But, I can't be arsed to watch anything other than the last 10 minutes of the games as they happen. I hear what I hear.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i can't imagine why, they 1-1'd with switzerland.
mircea_popescu: at issue isn't whether yes-or-no, but whether specific-identity-or-not-particularily, see ? even if what you describe happens, the item coming back won't meaningfully be douchebag.
lobbes: Sure. Best case as I see it is: mebbe d00d reads in silence for couple years, then, once not-20-years-old and able to grok, comes back and does productive things. Probably won't happen, but ya never know.
asciilifeform: ( in the coupla states where it doesn't -- 10bux still buys you a box of shells, and another 10 -- iron pipe at the 'home despot' and old nail... )
douchebag: mircea_popescu: Well, my main issue is that I don't work for free. I'm not going to spend time working on a project that I will not even be compensated for when I could be spending my time working on projects that I will compensated for.
BingoBoingo: Typical USG strategy: "Mircea Popescu can't exist, he has a blog and pictures and everything"
mircea_popescu: on the otherhand, but just as amusing, the simple and plainly evident fact that period europe consisted of ~way~ the fuck more people who couldn't stand jews than of people who liked hitler is, somehow, not much of a subject for the pomposity calling itself "scholarship". really, this happenstance doesn't happen to be at all interesting, somehiw ?
kanzure: oh, i don't believe in particle acceleration
mircea_popescu: they have this HUGE problem in the orclands with "buildings" without title on land the builders don't own.
mircea_popescu: well... isn't that right ?
mircea_popescu: there isn't really much to tell, which is why "happily ever after" goes the expression.
mircea_popescu: i don't think it's nearly as rare as you think.
asciilifeform: d00d wasn't 'wealthy' tho, in any sense i can think of
mircea_popescu: truth be told, the republic isn't really for anyone.
mircea_popescu: eh, the record of "i am independently wealthy lalala" folk isn't good either.
mircea_popescu: can't do that until middle-class "rich"
mircea_popescu: it's true that it was geared towardsthe capacities and abilities of a presumptively independent republican lord, whereas you evidently need more hands-on tutoring and training. this isn't the end of the world, of course, but it is strictly uninteresting to me, as i expect to get a slavegirl out of that degree of involvement, and you don't pass the bioquals.
mircea_popescu: i think it's on trilema somewhere, customs dood was liek "but don't you have any normal clothes ?!"
mircea_popescu: except girl ankle weights, aged cheeses, money, clothes that don't look like they're intended for the servants, and on it goes.
asciilifeform: usa seems to have the most permissive customs, pretty much anyffing that doesn't set off the dogs, is ignored
asciilifeform: well naturally 'except when don't' lol
mircea_popescu: except when they don't, but sure.
deedbot: http://trilema.com/2018/i-dont-understand-a-fucking-word-this-man-is-saying-help-me/ << Trilema - I don't understand a fucking word this man is saying. Help me!
asciilifeform: enemy didn't set out to make impossible wall; simply tall enuff that the headache far exceeds what anybody's willing to bother with. and to date seems to have succeeded.
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, google "doesn't know" http://trilema.com/2015/the-anal-child/ exists ; if you google for anal child all you get is other articles that reference it, and pages like say trilema.com/2015/03 ; but the article itself "dun exist".
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-15#1825808 << slow progress, snake soldered but untested. i realized last night that i don't have any linux devices, and was too tired to figure out how to do usb-serial/../new_id equivalent on a bsd. ☝︎
asciilifeform: there was episode where he exposed a (very fuckable) mindreading chix, on account of being the only referee who wasn't fucking her
asciilifeform: haven't heard this one, lol
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes don't remind him of that one, he's still not solved it i bet :D
mircea_popescu: i don't like impudent magic shows.
asciilifeform: i'd be that mircea_popescu doesn't like magic shows much.
asciilifeform: tho perhaps even confession won't suffice, sorta how conan doyle believed to the end of his days that houdini was genuinely powerful shaman, rather than stage artist
mircea_popescu: the other one asked for the notes spyked hasn't yet published when and because i told her to, otherwise it'd have stayed private.
asciilifeform: it isn't a particularly impressive feat of keep-straight
asciilifeform: ( supposing the prize weren't meanwhile gone )
mircea_popescu: anyway, the operating difference here isn't "whether everything is equally possible" ; but rather "whether everything is equally uninteresting". in point of fact the situation where dood made up all the girls would be more ~interesting~ than the actual reality. that's how your notion of parsimony fails
mircea_popescu: what do you mean "haven't met one yet" ?! you met one yesterday, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-14#1825321 ☝︎
asciilifeform: there might somewhere exist a 'i build emp probe on mondays and read reddit on tuesdays' fella. but i haven't met one yet.
asciilifeform: real planet earth doesn't seem to offer a continuum between 'waste of meat' and 'does worthwhile things' , tho it could theoretically exist somehow . somehow it loox to be a binary.
asciilifeform: not same degree of credibility. i can't picture mircea_popescu sitting and cooking up random faux chix ( why?! ) whereas can easily picture bored 19yo zek doing same
