mircea_popescu: also, om din
topor, man of
the axe, how you say redneck.
mircea_popescu: (the original "i'm a little bit country / i'm a little bit rock'n'roll" fairitale was
told by lenatus
to
the plebs of 500bc, btw.)
mircea_popescu: but note
that
the original reason
there (the romans ~actually needed~
the plebs,
to fight
the volsci / latins) is no longer present. we absolutely and emphatically do not need mok-shen's "common people" for any purpose.
mircea_popescu: so if you prefer
the reference,
there will be no lenatus compromise and no fucking lex publilia.
mircea_popescu: in
this sense sure, original rome as
the patrician class with its clientelar syste was "checked" ie infected with doom-ruin by
the imbecile plebs, resulting in
the creation of
the plebs
tribune (ironically,
the ~reason~ later emperor was sacrosanct -- he was also
the
tribune of plebs)
mircea_popescu: well, it was said in
these logs and it's still
true
that rome is well summarized by observing some people built some benches in a park somewhere and spent a millenium
thenceforth sorting out who should sit where on
them.
mircea_popescu: it's unclear altogether if late rome had a system at all ;
this is a matter open
to much scholarly debate.
mircea_popescu: the system which built rome is : in
the winter we sit around , in
the summer we go rape
the idiots,
take
their shit, melt it down, split it in equal
trophies and give one
to each man.
mircea_popescu: but
the notion of a countCY, and OF X!!!, as opposed
to
THE count himself is very much redolent of
the rotl.
mircea_popescu: took what, 500 years
to westphalia, "nation state" ie, "the LAND is
the item, people just ants on it"
mircea_popescu: that's
the great advantage of
the homosexual bottom : even a broomstick can fill it.
mircea_popescu: only in
that it's always easier
to be female
than male.
mircea_popescu: "taxation" is what pantsuit rendering of homage is, so as
to depersonalize it.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, re
taxation : item as a notion didn't even exist in 1100s. payment across hierarchy had an entirely different substance.
mircea_popescu: for what it's worth i see no difference whatsoever between
the above eclipse of reasoning and say "if i make it what i
think it should be -- it crashes".
a111: Logged on 2018-01-09 20:13 mircea_popescu: "# We use c=0.005 which has been experimentally found
to be optimal in processing
time for common PC under MS Windows and values of k of practical interest. A different c value may be desirable for use in different computing environments." << check it out asciilifeform ! IT IS SATOSHI ALL OVER AGAIN. why. WHY!!!
mircea_popescu: and godefroy says, "look at you, fool, you had your own sovereign crown (hugh was an earl, at
the
time
this was sovereign) but had
to come here and became a slave for it, and now
try
to sell me on it as if it were some great progress ?"
mircea_popescu: no, godefroy was naught else
than a man. as per
that shaw description, "the panache" etc.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: and he
tries
to sell
this
to godfrey of bouillon, who was a lord at
the
time.
this doesn't mean "rich" or "powerful" or any pantsuit nonsense of
today,
trying
to explain exactly why it shouldn't be
the case you even
try.
mircea_popescu: without an army, or any resources, or you know,
the forethought
to have at
the very least packed up
that eclipse for later, hugh understands
the precarity of his position, and so is a great supporter of
the byzantine king.
mircea_popescu: ok. and
the father
takes
them in hand and rapes
them around discreetely, yes. you know, like us presidents are invited at banquets but "can't go
there sir".
mircea_popescu: so he ends up shipwrecked in
the lands of anna's father, alexios. you know
the whore, anna, yes ?
mircea_popescu: literally,
that was his
thought process, "o look, astronomical phenomenon ergo i buy a car now."
mircea_popescu more
than willing
to answer q's. but unsure how
to proceed without.
mircea_popescu: but i dunno what
to put in. ie
the above
three lines -- are already written. what moar!
mircea_popescu: it's what i heard, "diaphanous, as in, if you're not familiar with
the whole
tree of medieval history and social
theory,
the jumps are a little wide".
mircea_popescu: it shouldn't have been permitted
then, as it's been methodically not permitted in
this here republic since inception.
mircea_popescu: the venue
through which
the socialist disaster happened happens
to be "reason" in a particular pantsuit reinterpretation --
the bitcoin cash of worms introduced "reasonable" basis for
taxation on
the basis of "land resources", and from
there on
this non-reason worked its poison into
the whole gamut of idiocy on display
today.
mircea_popescu: then
the pantsuit centered in rome attempted
the bitcoin cash of worms, and it's been going
towards building marx's paradise -- a world devoid of any people -- ever since.
mircea_popescu: feudalism was 100% republic, entirely existing as relationships between people, with no regard
to anything -- not
to
the herds of cattle, of any kind, nor
to land or weirs of fishing or any other nonsense.
mircea_popescu: the proposal is nothing less
than
to have identified
the exact point in history where
the pantsuit forked off
the chain.
ben_vulpes: ah
that's where
the moth scent line came from
mircea_popescu: but yes,
the point stands : useful limit of combustion-powered flying machine is more like 5kgs not
the 50kgs i originally imagined.
mircea_popescu: still misunderstood, but at least now i know wtf i was
thinking.
mircea_popescu: see, cuz if you store a liter and something,
that's almost a kg.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i dunno now why i
thought
the limit is a degree of magnitude higher on both energy and size.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: in fact : 750W at 50% conversion can provide a lot of lift -- if
the whole
thing it's embedded in is 1kg, your energetic expenditure per meter lift is not even 10J. can do 75m/s
theoretically.
mircea_popescu: well, a 300 gram 750 W engine
totally can make a chopper fly.
mircea_popescu: turns out i actually misunderstand
the limits of materials!
mircea_popescu: let's get back
to it. a) can i buy 10cc engine, off shelf ? b) dinamo needs coils, makes it heavy.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform dinamo coils heavy. and you mean off
the shelf what, 10cc engine ?

To come back
to
this question, would alf (or anyone) use a system where you could submit a plaintext list of URLs
to bot, and
then a few mins later bot would PM you with a link for download? >>

to being a fan of
the petrol quadcopter
mircea_popescu: funny how
they never seem
to remember who is "the government" whenever ~they~ go around messing with it. how about bad guys === usg don't go around using mnuchin as a hand puppet
to finance
their bad deeds ?

teh very respectable southern poverty law center. and i bet you bitcoin
to donuts
they didn't actually pay jack for it, either.
a111: Logged on 2017-03-08 22:29 mircea_popescu: in other lulz : femen,
the "ukrainian" organisation is selling shit priced in dollars via 2checkout.com,
the columbus ohio us corp.
mircea_popescu: fucking retard.
the only bad
thing is his ugly face and
the idiocy he represents.
mircea_popescu: they got
themselves a "culture war" right in
the cunt, and it was sensitive and "beyond reach"

to an old entomologist's nose

the 'we dun need
