pete_dushenski: "was raped and beat-up and left for dead.
a+++ 10/10 would do again!"
pete_dushenski: "Despite the problems, our data show that Tesla owner satisfaction is still very high: Ninety-seven percent of owners said they would definitely buy their car again." << now that's
a fucking cult
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: It's pretty bad compared to my more than
a decade old Saturn plastic car
assbot: Logged on 26-07-2015 17:51:01; mircea_popescu: speaking of condoms... for many years, i was using imported magnums. broke like...i dunno, twenty over
a decade ? easily 1%.
assbot: Logged on 20-10-2015 19:06:16; ascii_field: l0l cisco box. mircea_popescu took it off
a dead nazi, or what.
pete_dushenski: first dynasty, young handsome charmer, because why not put the best of bush and obama into
a blender and ship the product up north ?
pete_dushenski: or justin trudeau is buying every canadian
a phree double-double
pete_dushenski: haven't seen
a movie in theatres in
a few months, thinking the new bond flick will break the seal.
assbot: Logged on 20-10-2015 00:11:51; mircea_popescu: Zack & Miri Make
a Porno
mircea_popescu: that's right : voting obama is NOT more advanced than being
a redneck. it is LESS so.
mircea_popescu: the trully horrid Meeks and Jeste "study" on "wisdom" and that fucktard Henry Nasrallah's repackaging of the same are splendid anecdotal points to drive this entire "the difference between
a libertard and
a religious bigot is that the religious bigot is actually anachronistic, and in this sense MORE CULTURALLY ADVANCED."
mircea_popescu: (but, to keep things sophisticated - the raphe is more visible in males than in females ; also males lack
a penis bone, much like the horse lacks
a clavicle. it has been suggested that THIS is what the adam rib story is all about - god took man's penis bone and left
a cvasi-scar.)
mircea_popescu: (idle thought : if internet porn "objectifies women" / "contains experts", where's all the articles expertly discussing the relative value of
a whorl on said raphe ? what do you think, do women with twin hairline do better in bed than the normal (single line) ?
mircea_popescu: the hd is there so you can see what
a good job the bikini wax salon did on her perineal raphe.
mircea_popescu: omaigawd you watch pr0n like
a girl. what do you want next, fucking scents ? feelings ? CONTEXT ???
jurov: ^ i can nominate it to b-
a anthem
mircea_popescu: "oh, im just going to drive this plow against the fluid front, creating
a wave off center and all will be well because..."
mircea_popescu: aaand ethereum is back to doing it's 10%
a day loss dance. 0.00166 now
shinohai: I'm at
a loss on that one too. Not like I can't just make another friggin account, or that I even care what they think, etc.
shinohai: It resulted in
a block. I'm scared.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile at sanity ranch : punch an enlightened douchebag today. the fact Maya Angelou, diane keaton, Nancy Reagan et all haven't died with
a cock shaped icepick through their eyes is bad enough.
mircea_popescu: ey have
a predisposition to aggression and violence..."
mircea_popescu: "In keeping with this development, sometime in the future cord bloods will be taken routinely from birth and used to delineate the individual's DNA so that genetic information will be readily available under emergency conditions to assure proper assessment of violent people. Hence,
a patient presenting with an episode of violence and
a history to support that will have their DNA contrasted with norms to determine if th
mircea_popescu: you can run
a bunch of tv specials about "ratcism", they're still gonna do exactly what they did before
mircea_popescu: problem is rats are
a lot smarter than their human counterparts. they're immune.
mircea_popescu: or, if you prefer,
a transcript of the chicken coop session on "things and the world"

a assbot: Here's what you don't know or understand about Facebook : everything. on Trilema -
A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... (
http://bit.ly/1M69PXV )
mircea_popescu: "we're all equal and equally the same and thus therefore clearly - either the H binds to another H or to the end of
a C or to something wait, C doesn't exist. EVERYONE HAS ONE VALENCE AND THE WORLD IS MADE OF HYDROGEN"
mircea_popescu: "But I want to be
a ladies man like Don Draper. Back then it was easier, because affairs were more acceptable."
ascii_field: interestingly, rfc3447 (section
a.2.4) allows other hashes, up to sha512
mircea_popescu: "In PGP and GnuPG, the public-key cipher is probably the weaker of the pair. Fortunately, however, if an attacker could decrypt
a session key it would only be useful for reading the one message encrypted with that session key. The attacker would have to start over and decrypt another session key in order to read any other message."
mircea_popescu: is the guy notable other than "forced youtube to undo
a ban" ?
funkenstein_:
a quick scan shows
a lot of references to Christianity and Satan
funkenstein_: the guy wrote
a "resistance manifesto"
a decade or so ago
funkenstein_: big lurch was not an allegory, but
a real rapper.. thanks ;)
mircea_popescu: he could have
a ball ravishing teenagers. in fact, possibly the blog hiatus is the direct result of his having figured this out
mircea_popescu: Those who don't come to it from exactly the right perspective are infuriated, "this guy is
a douchebag!" You think you see something more real than she does, but you aren't supposed to see more deeply-- she is. You are supposed to be infuriated-- that's why she looks more deeply. She doesn't like him, she likes what liking him says about her. She likes what your hating him says about her.
mircea_popescu: If you are tempted to look more deeply (if you're watching it, it's for you)-- like the smitten girl does-- you'd see this appearance first, then through it: "if you got to know him, you'd see he's really
a...!" And then you'd pat yourself on the back for having intellectual courage to not judge by appearances! But you've been fooled by the commercial art illusion, thinking that because you saw through the illusion, th
mircea_popescu: i had the fucking box packed specially for
a monitor lifter.
ascii_field: l0l cisco box. mircea_popescu took it off
a dead nazi, or what.
☟︎ ascii_field: mircea_popescu's flat must be
a very merry place
mircea_popescu: " what
a hottie of
a secretary " << no. pointedly not. what
a miracleworker they employ in the front desk.
ascii_field: Algorithm 4, we can unmask the 4-byte values returned in
a status VSC response to reveal ”raw” RNG bytes from the hardware side. Since this is done pre-authentication, any attacker can generate this from any locked drive.'
ascii_field: 'Another, even better, way that can be executed pre-authentication was found later. In fact, when looking deeper into the firmware code we noticed every time the status VSC is called, the raw RNG bytes are masked with
a static value. This static 4-byte value, 0x271828af, is xored with the 4-byte RNG output. Further this value is xored with the last 4-byte SY N value before sending the value to the host computer. Using the
mircea_popescu: if your solution does not include cheating what even makes you think it's
a solution at all!
ascii_field: because you cheated by using
a willing slave to begin with
mircea_popescu: meanwhile you don't even need much caning to get
a willing slave into
a sane head space.
mircea_popescu: as
a result, no amount of pain suffering or violence could have matured the individual. on the contrary - it drove infantilization.
mircea_popescu: ironically, auschwitz has
a LOT more in common with the "boost self esteem" version of us schools than with actual education.
mircea_popescu: adolescence is not childhood. the child wakes up with what SEEMS "what shall i do to amuse himself", except to him it';s
a dealdy grind.
mircea_popescu: just like that, go to school, take
a job that's "not the real you", on it goes.
ascii_field: he 'grows up', which means he no longer wakes up and thinks 'what shall i do to amuse myself' but 'off to the salt mine' and when comes home 'what do i eat and have i enough spare change?' and then tired, and then again
a day of living death
mircea_popescu: what franklin spoke of was
a different time.
a time when adulthood was unavoidable, and as such lazy people simply succumbed to the hollow form. "hey, if no kid can tell me from any other adult, why bother."
ascii_field: (i am told there is actually
a subculture of 'hipster keyboards' but they are not collecting 1980s workhorses but actual oddity art objects, of mahogany, ...)
mircea_popescu: <ascii_field> how is this
a mistake? << see there. i don't say such.
mircea_popescu: quite. and how much of one's passion with rare keyboards is driven by
a fear of this issue ?
mircea_popescu: in point of fact, individuality is not
a matter of appearance.
mircea_popescu: and there she is, the cat, with her smile that deserves
a caning just for that. she knows what she's doing, quite exactly. so what now ?
mircea_popescu: suppose you like cohiba because it tastes good, and you're at
a party and this chick you used to fuck DELIBERATELY introduces her current derp, who goes on
a rant about how he loves cohiba and did you see that commercial ? maks him feel like who he really is!11
mircea_popescu: lemme see if you ever had this experience. was it ever the case that you enjoyed
a product, only to be confronted with some idiot enjoying the same product for the "wrong reasons" ?
ascii_field: when ben franklin wrote that 'most people die at 25 but aren't buried till 75' he was describing
a very real thing.
mircea_popescu: this could, apparently, be misinterpreted as
a reduction of individuality. but it'd take
a teen to make the mistake.
ascii_field: (although limonov is prolly not the metric here, as he was almost entirely the same animal as orwell - complete with 'ritual' visit to
a war, even got to fire
a rifle, yes! cummed in his pants)
mircea_popescu: they individuate out of this, maybe, into adulthood. ironically, adults are apparently
a lot more similar than the adolsecents are.
mircea_popescu: the irony here, true, unadorned irony of the greek sort, is that the champion of the faux, out of
a misguided desire for authenticity metastasized out of his own problems with the faux and handles thereof, stuck to the infantile version instead of individuating into the adult.
ascii_field: mr o did not think he were 'too good.' he tried to become
a limonov. and failed.
mircea_popescu: and sure,
a bunch of boys get married because who they want to be.
ascii_field: i suspect there is
a 'cargo cult' aspect - they can see other people laugh, and say 'i could also laugh!'
mircea_popescu: sense of humor. aka faux hipster irony. in other words,
a facility with the faux.
mircea_popescu: sense of humor, you know ? there's
a reason all the frustrated dudes on forums picked this from
a sea of random crap.
mircea_popescu: and he wants
a girl - if only the women would understand how great
a sense of humor he has.
ascii_field:
a good number of people were there for identical reason as mr o
ascii_field: this was true of perhaps all but
a handful of folks on eastern front
ascii_field: in most people's understanding of the profession - he was
a soldier.
mircea_popescu: and i would suspect he was never intimate with
a woman, either.
