mircea_popescu: i had manic miner and ~never played it, for instance.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i was never into real-time anything.
mircea_popescu: (he lost).
mircea_popescu: "i am derp endorsed by fluke"
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2012/culture-shock-ama/
mircea_popescu: there was a peculiar "I am the X-approved candidate for Y supported by K L and M according to token Q and item W" idiocy i saved somewhere, lemme dig it up.
mircea_popescu: yeah, on one end of the spectrum. on the other, the very fucking grammar changes, with a lot of "the x of y" constructions, verbing of nouns, periphrase-by-metaphor and all sorts of weird.
mircea_popescu: it's ridiculous, at this rate the language will be mostly nouns before the century is out.
mircea_popescu: the most amusing thing re ustards is, the sheer volume of NAMED entities they need to produce as much as a paragraph
mircea_popescu: nor a general spiteful distance from all of them.
mircea_popescu: well somehow. you're not an anthropologist. as a result, you don't have the ability to pick any random culture you wish
mircea_popescu: oh the gothic fiction. yeah. prolly better quality cunts than the norm.
mircea_popescu: which one is that again ?
mircea_popescu: older derps go for crapolade a la "bridges of madison country" ; socially awkward derps go for a spectrum between "ER" and "sex in the city" ; younguns watch ineptitudes more varied.
mircea_popescu: anything with kirsten wiig , enjoy. you'll thank me later :D
mircea_popescu: chick lit : "romance" g-g-b type settings, where the bff g is entirely castrated ; procedurals of various types ; "romance" of the fish-out-of-water and other exotica type ; "suffering" type.
mircea_popescu: that's a subset neh ?
mircea_popescu: yeah, minus the industry. they only kept the "jobs", which anyone has and as best as anyone can discern, consist entirely of paychecks. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: of course, they have chick lit, which is pretty much the same thinger.
mircea_popescu: as of yet.
mircea_popescu: no ?!
mircea_popescu: i wonder how many usian kids exchanged such.
mircea_popescu: what about tibi summe rheni domnitor ?
mircea_popescu: "pedicatur eros, fellat linus ; centenis futuit matho, milibus. ole, quid ad te ?"
mircea_popescu: martial ftw, owns both their asses.
mircea_popescu: in other wtf, wtf has lovecraft found "licentious" in fucking whitman ?! really, ovid's filth without his grace ? wut ?
mircea_popescu: pretty odd if you think about it.
mircea_popescu: i bet.
mircea_popescu: as a proxy for "which will still be around in a decade vs which will discover drugs" ?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i guess so.
mircea_popescu: [incidentally, saying that some vory ACTUALLY ENJOYS fucking some mary in the ass would have been a pretty serious insult]
mircea_popescu: which is pretty fucking inane, but whatever.
mircea_popescu: they do, but their relations are about sensuality rather than power.
mircea_popescu: softer*
mircea_popescu: lafond's entire blog is all about this, "look one and all, come and gaze upon the incredibru frozen shitball - the more you work it, the soft it gets!"
mircea_popescu: thugs and muggings, at the hand of either white dudes dressed in blue or black dudes dressed in those weird ankle pants they wear.
mircea_popescu: rent, for instance.
mircea_popescu: and ustards somehow inexplicably work-soften.
mircea_popescu: numbers can win any contest, provided work-hardening is on the table. but if the material doesn't work-harden, there's no hope in numbers. au contraire.
mircea_popescu: at least originally.
mircea_popescu: obviously, softer material than their persecutors
mircea_popescu: underclass, at least originally.
mircea_popescu: as in suka wars.
mircea_popescu: phf by suka i meant specifically, the set of stalin-pardoned thieves
mircea_popescu: and since we're on it... tachanka... tanklet. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: romanian does the same thing, through a wide array of diminutives.
mircea_popescu: the reason the images are so lulzy (mostly in the dumb blonde line) is because without further explanation, it can readily be "dumb girl mary"
mircea_popescu: mk
mircea_popescu: ;;google android nexus
mircea_popescu: aha.
mircea_popescu: but in other lulz, http://bidla.net/35457-manka-za-chetkost-vazy-interesuetsya.html ☟︎
mircea_popescu: this, incidentally, is 100% what "rap" was all about, and it failed miserably altogether.
mircea_popescu: but no, dumb as bricks these people.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile, think from the other perspective : if you were a moderately powerful producer, what the fuck ELSE would you do than exactly this, trying to cash in some holywood clout for some underworld connections ?
mircea_popescu: i know, factually, they exist. they aren't depicted. why not ? "they wouldn't sell ?" gimme a break ?
mircea_popescu: consider, where are all the hollywood movies depicting in painstaking detail the lives of the poor tynisha ysais and her boyfriend(s) who offer her sexual services to friends as a matter of course ? where's the dom com about this set of social security cowsies kept by ex highschool footbal kid ? etc ?
mircea_popescu: it goes a lot deeper, in many ways.
mircea_popescu: mind issuing short summaries for the ... most everyone whop's not gonna click on twitter ?
mircea_popescu: not like they can cut themselves a path anywhere. today's jews, like 1930s' jews, are headed where the jews go.
mircea_popescu: not like they can cut themselves a path in jail, suka-style.
mircea_popescu: but yes the fundamental truth behind the propaganda is exactly this cold reality : "nobody wants you, middle class america." tis true, too.
mircea_popescu: a once-in-a-culture thing
mircea_popescu: i honestly expected he'll blow off the charts, he was incredibly talented as a young man
mircea_popescu: competing*
mircea_popescu: (also the compete explanation offered privately as to why say pacino is an actor, and norton is a nobody : showed up at wrong time.)
mircea_popescu: this being also the argument as to cinema not being art.
mircea_popescu: [discuss it, i mean].
mircea_popescu: the italians had a very similar thing going in the 50s as a result of the state planned "cinecita" in rome. il uomo delle stelle, famously, or stuff like cari fottutissimi amici more obscurely.
mircea_popescu: i'm pretty sure more moscow children were born in the ural as a result of that cinema push than for any other reason.
mircea_popescu: phf yeah, those were mostly the glory days of soviet cinema, truck caravans with projectors embedded touring the country like a sort of circus act on steroids. the latter "tour bus" / "cocksucker blues" us star worship stuff but a pale copy.
mircea_popescu: i've not been able to locate it, perhaps because i can't remember any words.
mircea_popescu: does anyone happen to remember that [chinese i think it was ?] one where the culmination was some sort of productive inefficiency at a truck depot driven by gate congestion, so The Rebel backed up his truck into the compound wall tearing it down like straw (apparently back then the chinese trucks weren\t made out of tin foil) and making a new gate ?
mircea_popescu: at the time they were of course insufferable, but in the current context they're some of the better parodies available.
mircea_popescu: i kinda got a hankering for the old "young female is sent to be nurse/teacher/whatever at remote village, discovers and falls in love with local tractor driver" films. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo> Cucking on Steroids https://archive.is/wxoti <<< "my wife and i are anything we wish to pretend like we are. here's why we are currently pretending to be 'white evangelicals' while still transparently being redditard lefties : we're too dumb to realise a world outside of our head exists, and are perfectly happy to live on words."
mircea_popescu: makes sense.
mircea_popescu: o hey prev one even better.
mircea_popescu: whatever you call the non-us people these days, i think it's not niggers anymore, maybe.
mircea_popescu: only if niggers do it is bad. or
mircea_popescu: no it's good like fluoride, strengthens teeth
mircea_popescu: lol
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-04-24#1456762 << speaking of which, so it's like 900k/1.2mn loaded and then it starts to tickle them ? ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: mackensen was staying in bucharest at the time.
mircea_popescu: letter to mackensen, part of romanian folklore.
mircea_popescu: (incidentally, this wilhelm being the original architect of the holocaust - not only by proposing that the correct response to "the nuisance" would be an all-worlds (ie, new and old) pogrom "a la Russe", but even by indicating gas!)
mircea_popescu: oh i forgot, the irish slaves don't count, it's only congo that's on the vip list.
mircea_popescu: alf's picture on the cover ?
mircea_popescu: myea
mircea_popescu: phf to me that seems very much bait-and-switchy. if i were to judge, it'd make me guess they do not have it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform lol, yeah, maybe someone cut a hole in that day's edition all over the world. suddenly we have a whole mystery novel on our hands
mircea_popescu: "oh no, it is so valuable FOR HUMAN THOUGHT!!!1!!1 what will we do if it goes away"
mircea_popescu: obviously every library with the newspaper has it, but i was discussing the intershit.
mircea_popescu: not about to encourage that bs.
mircea_popescu: "only available with slip from hitler" ?
mircea_popescu: it's incredible what the people who don't have the time to preserve historical documents nevertheless find time for.
mircea_popescu: phf did you find all the inept psychanalizing yet btw ? german side, english side, hatred of mother, bla bla ?
mircea_popescu: the coincidences sure do pile.
