mircea_popescu: asciilifeform when you speak of "
a" backup you're already out in cosmic space. backups are
a process not an item.
mircea_popescu: there's
a huge difference from taking out harmful stuff and taking out spurious stuff. these are never ghoing to be the first step, and we've not completed the first step yet
funkenstein_: lifting all these blocks gonna give me
a hearneia
assbot: The strange case of the unentropic entropy and other bedtime stories of primes and people. on Trilema -
A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... (
http://bit.ly/1f3ZkFJ )
funkenstein_: not sure why i like him, considering
a decade of wrong predictions once
a week
mircea_popescu: (dali did
a lot better, but dali quite specifically whored out to power rather than to plebes)
mircea_popescu: "The great thing about /r/fatpeoplehate was it was
a prominent (6th most active) part of an extremely popular website. This is too private; we aren't pissing off fatties being here."
ascii_field: mocsny wrote, among many things, re: how it is not really possible to become 'galactically' fat without
a host of 'unsung heroes' - enablers who feed you, wipe arse, etc
BingoBoingo: Hating on the merely overweight is kind of
a non-starter for me, but here in 'Murica there is no shortage of clearly celestial bodies to hate on.
BingoBoingo: There's
a whole vocabluary. Mini moons are fat kids, hamplanets are big and round. ham galaxies are the ones so big they flatten out on surfaces... Beetus monsters are covered in weeping wounds on their legs
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: The sort of rollie pollie that needs
a rag on
a stick to clean itself and always is covered in an oily sheen
lobbes: BingoBoingo: what if one day you meet
a butter golem you genuinely like? either hate big or don't hate at all, I say
ascii_field: i'm happy to settle for the dream of making
a -worse- world - for the enemy.
mircea_popescu: what, dja think those people imagine they're making
a better world ?
lobbes: just don't delude yourself that it is towards
a purpose
trinque: sure I have
a rational reason for not wanting to be near someone sneezing
lobbes: is
a learned reaction, I would argue
trinque: been up one wall of my skull and down the other; I may be
a barbarian
hanbot: trinque i'm sure it's
a worthwhile investigation :)
ascii_field: (the 'why' is
a separate subject, but it is not
a baseless notion)
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: except we have it here in reverse. in usa, grotesque fat is (in recent decades; not speaking of president taft etc) seen as
a sign of poverty (not in the no-money sense, but in the offensively-stupid-poor (tm) )
trinque: hanbot: something along the lines of "because the meat robot is programmed that way" way lower than whatever is having
a conversation with itself
ascii_field: possibly mircea_popescu did not know this, but in usa 'fat' is
a proxy for other things (mainly caste-related)
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: There's
a settlement of diaspora folk there
assbot: Logged on 10-06-2015 20:33:45; BingoBoingo: The one time I encounter
a hate movement with quality momentum to take off it gets fucking banned.
trinque: I take
a breath because thats what
a functioning human body does
trinque: hanbot: it's not
a question of mattering
hanbot: trinque what does it matter if you have visceral urges or not, beyond using them as
a diagnostic to tell whether or not you're alive?
trinque: particularly considering human societies, do I want to be "totally free" whatever that means, playing cards on the worlds nicest beach, or do I want to be
a part of the best-functioning giant human meat robot
trinque: right, one can consider being liberated from
a particular shackle
trinque: I tend to think it's
a bad concept to work with
mircea_popescu: ascii_field originally it was supposed to be some thing really cool 19yo girls with
a modelling/pr career say about socially marginal, sexually undesirable geeks. five to ten years later it emerged as the new cool.

a combination of incompetence (note that high functioning autism is still mental incompetence) and similar misrepresentation, similarly for whatever reasons.
BingoBoingo: ascii_field:
A shitlord is basic anti-stupid
BingoBoingo: ascii_field: It's what the social justice types call people who act like people. It was used as
a slur too often and now people wear the title shitlord with pride.
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: Last I heard Jurov shows up at you case with
a suitcase full of euros
nubbins`: no wonder pete has an attitude, he obv doesn't give
a fuck :D
ascii_field: (dashes removed, newlines swapped, other things which do not make for
a usable winblows exe)
BingoBoingo: The one time I encounter
a hate movement with quality momentum to take off it gets fucking banned.
☟︎ ascii_field: pete_dushenski: i thought this was
a mac binary ?!
mod6: I did have to copy over all of the openssl headers as you were saying once upon
a time, but maybe i'm missing something else.
nubbins`: dat time when -otc failed to produce
a buyer for
a lowly 1btc sell and nubs had to rely on circle
shinohai: My closest solution to
a decent fap bot thus far are categorized rss feeds.
ascii_field: don't ever think of the enemy as
a mechanism
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: wake me up when you catch him. i'd like
a finger or toe as keychain.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Give midori
a go. Just keep in mind its SSL implementation is especially retared so
http is not going to really offer much of an illusion even of protection
pete_dushenski: ended with
a planted file on
a website hosting old versions of browsers, irc clients, etc.
mircea_popescu: if you think "they" have
a different set of problems... they don't.
lobbes: still, you have the freedom to throw the crown off and sit on thumbs for
a year
mircea_popescu: alrighty then. so apparently alf is
a very convinced horse ?
BingoBoingo: hegemoOn: assbot tickered
a transaction on the tapeophone
mircea_popescu: horse's notion of freedom is "the ability to run where it will". nevertheless, absent
a ground to push him up and an atmosphere to push him down, the horse's freedom's not quite what he imagined, but rather painful if short an affair.
mircea_popescu: take the sexual metaphor. sure, sexual freedom would supperficially appear to be that situation where "the cunt;'s your own to do as you please". however, the cunt so liberated from
a context wherein cocks make demands upon it is not in any sense something for you to do as you please, it's just
a painful bit of bleeding garbage enbittering your existence.
ascii_field: all i personally want out of
a hypothetical 'be rich' is for my daylight hours to belong to me and only me
hegemoOn: but if you are not interested i can understand, just wanted to share
a good paper :)
mircea_popescu: let the man learn enough about how to use
a computer to get
a gpg sig and register it with the bot.

mircea_popescu: and the explanation comes out to "any girl can get so horny one night she fucks
a dog"
ascii_field: did not say 'this is
a mega-system that will last 10,000 years and build many fine pyramids.' but was trying to explain why
a thinking person might voluntarily work for usg somewhere
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: it worked great. they pay you, and you sit in
a broom closet and mostly do whatever.
