gabrielradio: not sure about the poem tho. the way i saw this whole translation thing was that mircea_popescu wanted the ro articles translated because he didn't want to spend the time to do it himself, so that's where i would come in
gabrielradio: i guess i should tackle that one as well
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: if i could find the comment, i'd have found the link

pete_dushenski: "oh i just skipped over those"
pete_dushenski: i'm always amazed how many people don't even read them
shinohai: lol pete_dushenski I had no idea contravex had opined on that xD

mircea_popescu: thestringpuller if i wanted to be a usian slumlord, i'd buy a decrepit building, hold auditions for (nude) black women under 25, on the premise that they get to stay there free, but they don't get to say no to any cock.

mircea_popescu: "he could have at least apologized so i could say "hey, someone doesn't apologize if they didn't do anything" instead of this weak sauce "they don't get arrested if they didn't do anything".
assbot: Logged on 05-07-2015 21:37:26; mircea_popescu: war means, i fear i have to remind, spending the next 5 years without a woman eating your belt and shitting in a hole you dug yourself.

pete_dushenski: i won't wander too far down that path then

BingoBoingo: ;;google Until then, I’d only heard of “alcohol showers.” Turns out 70% isopropyl alcohol is about the only thing that can even touch a scent like that once its soaked into your skin. It takes four or five bottles to get really clean, but it’s worth it. It’s probably the only scenario I can honestly endorse drinking a little of it, too.

asciilifeform: the only reason i mention the cable tidbit is the sheer mindfuck of learning of the 'copper-clad aluminum' fraud
asciilifeform: the price of this humble construction material has nearly doubled since i last had to buy.
BingoBoingo: Same for electical cable. I pity the fire departments.
asciilifeform: today i learned (tm) that most ethernet cable presently sold is a fraud - copper-plated aluminum. and that if you want actual copper - it'll be ~150 usd / 300 metre bobbin, or so.
ben_vulpes: no, i think it was recent.
BingoBoingo: i.e. WHy are Darknet busts full og C IV xanax paraded while clearnet C III busts not so much an only involve... to be revealed
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Actually right now I'm working on a qntra piece on biological limits. originally targeted it for end of the month, but should be out by end of the week
assbot: Logged on 21-10-2015 01:10:25; mircea_popescu: i suppose in the south of the future the masters live in orbit and the slaves roam below. to be abducted now and again for sexual services or w/e.
phf: new ricer fad, how loud your system is, neighbors call cops, "bro, i'm compling gentoo with -O10"
BingoBoingo: I mean an oil cooling system that burn the oil (Jet A only)
BingoBoingo: Sure, but if the monster wants to idle at 300C you need moar than a heatsink. I'm disappointed there aren't many if any new chips like this
mircea_popescu: i suppose in the south of the future the masters live in orbit and the slaves roam below. to be abducted now and again for sexual services or w/e. ☟︎
asciilifeform: for a while i researched the protocol and tried to build a solid-state replacement, got nowhere, too much like actual work
asciilifeform: 2) cannot be reinstalled (i don't have the tapes, or the tape drive) even if you could obtain another.
assbot: Logged on 20-10-2015 23:50:06; mircea_popescu: If you agree with this, then you have to also face the fact that Wolf didn't consciously plan, "no matter what happens in this interview, I'm going to cover it up"-- it was a reflex, an instinct. Get a drink, think about this: a reporter's instinct wasn't to go for the truth, but to go with the scripted story.
phf: BingoBoingo: i'm actually moving to dc, so yeah, will be within shooting distance from ascii
phf: i assume it's also significantly quieter ;)
asciilifeform: i see 9.5k
asciilifeform: and i have yet to meet with anybody who really grasped what he'd be getting into, buying this machine.
BingoBoingo: <phf> assuming it's in DC << Awe, I though I would get a chance to open Bingo's courier service.
asciilifeform: hm. if the keyboard thing is any indicator, i now have nfi what the thing is worth.
phf: doesn't need to, i will pick it up from the door
asciilifeform: in fact, i can pretty much guarantee that it will ~not~...
asciilifeform: difficult question. because i cannot offer ANY guarantee that it will survive shipping.
mircea_popescu: I think Rita Owens meant the statement "more Caucasian men stepping up" as a jab at blacks to get them movitated, but if it is factually accurate then these Caucasians are idiots. Really? Big Brothers? That's the call you heard? Whites seem particularly prone to manic devotions to faddish volunteerism inspired by celebrity that are transparently self-aggrandizing. And temporary-- they inevitably quit when the nex
asciilifeform: phf: i've been (futilely) selling it for ages.
asciilifeform: i got an 'old-style' and 'new-style' (the latter is pictured in the ebay link)
asciilifeform: but somehow i doubt that the market for these has 'depth'
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-10-2015#1304004 << holy fuck, i have two. paid a hundy for each. ☝︎
pete_dushenski: aite, i'm off to go bang my head against pergolesi's magnificat. such a bitch, this thing. later !

pete_dushenski: i'd take even money on qatar falling before athens, if anyone's interested
assbot: Logged on 20-10-2015 22:16:14; jurov: maybe it's just me but i don't like porn zooming all in to genitalia and spending minutes there, especially in this time of huge HD screens
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-10-2015#1303942 << i recall this aversion as well. when i was 12 ;p ☝︎
shinohai: I don't think it's far-fetched either.
mircea_popescu: ahaha. if "meets obama" clocktard comes back a decade later onboard a plane that slams into the wh and kills the us president, i WILL write the "obama trained a future terrorist" article.
