asciilifeform: the kabuki face is lulzy

asciilifeform: who break own noses all the time aha.

asciilifeform: here, have even 'better' one, http://starosti.ru/article.php?id=2270

asciilifeform: *burns

asciilifeform: much auto.

asciilifeform: and with rope burbs on hands, and broken nose

asciilifeform: iirc they found him ~month later

asciilifeform: lolwat, the bloated carcass?!

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-28#1530782 << lol auto, like murdock ☝︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-28#1530763 << rodger, by all indications, was straight ☝︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-28#1530781 << there is no mention of nonworking cock in rodger.. ☝︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-28#1530786 << where is 'here' ? ☝︎☟︎

asciilifeform: so there's that.

asciilifeform: though he did stab a bunch of ??? in the end

asciilifeform: who even knows if knife incident happened.

asciilifeform: diana_coman: 'unreliable narrator'

asciilifeform: (but in actuality afaik she was a hobo and probably won no beauty contest, but there is little record)

asciilifeform: i always picture her as a great beauty.

asciilifeform: iirc he had a daughter, who built & fired an everettron.

asciilifeform: everett smiles in his unmarked grave.

asciilifeform: that'd be curtis lemay's 'it won't dare'

asciilifeform: but It Was So Many!

asciilifeform: baffled - yes

asciilifeform: not afaik.

asciilifeform: it is common today. i personally witnessed a man having bought an entire crate of tickets.

asciilifeform: this incidentally is not a necessary element. the other rodgers i know of, did not exhibit it.

asciilifeform: picture the fella cleaning a cage..

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: abduction rape quite likely resembled actual work far too closely for herr rodger to take an interest.

asciilifeform: or sea for moses, etc.

asciilifeform: if it were 'forgotten' i missed the memo

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this is the meaning i learned in school

asciilifeform: where's the hole?

asciilifeform: let odin et al judge.

asciilifeform: but mircea_popescu has point.

asciilifeform: it is worth mentioning that i am a connoisseur of subj, since the performance of mssrs. harris & klebold, yet the showing of rodger was so lackluster that it slipped my attention entirely in '14

asciilifeform: 'win' 'd be if he, say, sarinated some lizard graduation, etc.

asciilifeform: meh, what, 3 knifed and 3 / few 100s kills/shots?

asciilifeform: whereelse.

asciilifeform: in the arena, with retiarii

asciilifeform: those terms

asciilifeform: how's that

asciilifeform: 'dear sir pray tell how'

asciilifeform: esp if answer people gave were 'try shitting smaller' or similar

asciilifeform: and there are folks who envy toilet before they're through.

asciilifeform: well it is, iirc, not uncommon symptom of terminal rodgeritis

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-28#1530649 << interesting imho detail, that i think mircea_popescu also noticed - at no point is mr. hero seen to envy chix ☝︎

asciilifeform: bzzzk.

asciilifeform: bell was for 'now can stop'

asciilifeform: the one stalin used

asciilifeform: do they have the little bell?

asciilifeform: 'studio audience'

asciilifeform: oh hey.

asciilifeform: wtf is a 'jhvh' anyway??

asciilifeform: $up gabriel_laddel

asciilifeform: 'i want a waveform generator box, i could spend fiddybux on it instead of drink, or hey! neighbour threw out tape deck and...'

asciilifeform: gabriel_laddel: when you're a student and time is 'worth 0', you do things like making own lab instruments out of rubbish

asciilifeform: gabriel_laddel: young folk with time on their hands.

asciilifeform: lemme guess, no key?

asciilifeform: $up gabriel_laddel

asciilifeform: 'pssst hey kid, wanna buy 100year float??'

asciilifeform does often wonder whether there exists a black market in old-new stock parts such as toilet valve.

asciilifeform: waiwat

asciilifeform: cuts, aha, own screws.

asciilifeform: (betcha gabriel_laddel makes valves. and nails) ☟︎

asciilifeform: life is not long enough to make own valves.

asciilifeform: i dun make capacitors here, either,

asciilifeform: (and shit in bucket while working, yes)

asciilifeform: aaaaha i'ma spend a month on a $5 part. suuuure.

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-28#1530570 << for valve?! ☝︎

asciilifeform: there is no reason for this part to wear out other than on ~geological~ time scale.

asciilifeform: i would bet that it is there still.

asciilifeform: the wc in the flat i grew up in, back on other side of ocean, was 100+ years old. and had ORIGINAL float when i met it. grandfather - cleaned it. copper thing, ancient with patina, quite functional

asciilifeform: i suspect that it actually... dissolved.

asciilifeform: but this - is a new thing.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu's knife (i also had this knife) or my saw from 2 wks ago, these made sense, the mechanical forces on the atrocious dried snot from which they were made, were formidable

asciilifeform: never seen anything of the kind before.

asciilifeform: the plastic stem ruptured.

asciilifeform: https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/31knpB4IfKL._SY355_.jpg << this.

asciilifeform: it's a float valve. it lives whatever pressure the water pipe supplies.

asciilifeform: filled ?

asciilifeform: thing was <1y old.

asciilifeform: re chinese engineering, i had a float valve, of the usual type, in toilet - EXPLODE the other day

asciilifeform: not so many a decade ago.

asciilifeform: 'The bigger problem for China is its workforce. Even though China is graduating far more than 1 million engineers every year, the quality of their education is so poor that they are not employable in technical professions. This was documented by my research teams at Duke and Harvard. ' << gold.

asciilifeform: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Cq1ubhOXgAEUVA7.jpg:large << luuuuuuv bloatware!11111

asciilifeform: text contains multiple 'and then i went to this empty street because saw girl there once'

asciilifeform: well yes. but elliot at least showed up where there were gurlz. not in refrigerator store.

asciilifeform: but in what imagined universe said crew might conceivably ~need~ these remoras for something, is beyond me

asciilifeform: i could see'em positioning themselves as prospective gauleiters for chinese repo crew.

asciilifeform: possibly not

asciilifeform: that boat sailed in the 1890s.

asciilifeform: i cannot picture anyone, even anglotards, conceiving of such a thing.

asciilifeform: switch how? to move there?

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the tampons?! how?

asciilifeform: the 'great plague of 2001' is factual but wholly incomplete picture.

asciilifeform: re the capacitors, the chinese story is a lie of omission, i've been swapping caps routinely in hardware made since 1990 or so.

asciilifeform: i shit thee not.

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-27#1530468 << oh better still, it takes no fewer than THREE api calls, any or all of which MAY FAIL. ☝︎

asciilifeform: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/womens-blog/2016/aug/27/why-chinese-women-dont-use-tampons << apparently this is nyoozworthy
