a racial group though? I think this group testifies to that as we're from all over

a functioning sexconomy, bad surogates on display are arousing not depressing.

a browser
assbot: Logged on 05-05-2015 22:45:57; mircea_popescu: mod6 incidentally,
a count of memory allocation of the entire codebase by function would be another worthy goal. just how much mmap, mremap, brk etc does it do.

a shit.

a bumper crop of what I though were bumblebees move it, turns out they are carpenter bees. Rather harmless things I'm trimming trees the squirrels planted in the flower beds and the big bees are just buzzing around pollinating the shit out of the columbine...

a worthy move. never used the other thing, no.
mircea_popescu: was free agent b4. current fossil replaced previous (anwar saddat) at
a military parade.
Adlai didn't follow the egyptian 'spring' too closely, but it seemed to be
a general process of the army becoming
a free agent, and the public not disliking that sufficiently for another revolt (or not having
a second army handy to oust the first)
mircea_popescu: Adlai i would say egypt is copying the turkish style to

a pistol that is guaranteed to explode in your hand.
