mircea_popescu: yeah, the dwarf is probably all into it\
mircea_popescu: gotta load up on teh history first, it's rich.
mircea_popescu: you're new. this is how bitcoin scams work.
mircea_popescu: "So, in order to address this issue, some of the Bitcoin developers have joined hands with the makers of the widely used BTCsuite and are now building their own new digital currency called DECRED." << except a) nobody fucking uses "btcsuite" and b) who was this again ? they keep avoiding actually naming those "developers".
mircea_popescu: "CEO of 'Company 0', Mr. Jacob Yocom-Piatt, who has funded Bitcoin development since early 2013" << nobody heard of him. apparently every year needs its own neobee, glhf.
mircea_popescu: right.
mircea_popescu: is this the new scamcoin usg folks are going to bless us with after the demise of xt ?
mircea_popescu: seems not.
mircea_popescu: !s faircoin
mircea_popescu: o hey, cool.
mircea_popescu: sure. who're you ?
mircea_popescu: !up lobito
mircea_popescu: <pete_dushenski> re: vaccinations as a barrier to entry for government subsidies for children, it seems to me that parents who choose not to vaccinate their children should be on the hook for any adverse eventualities of that decision <<< this stance is nonsensical in that the more notable adverse eventualities are also externalities. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: side*
mircea_popescu: thong to the site, the beach look for 2016 ?
mircea_popescu: decentralize all the thangs.
mircea_popescu: aghahaha ginger dormice ?
mircea_popescu: happened in history befoar.
mircea_popescu: but for these schmucks isis'd literally say "and we went over to europe and it was a great uninhabited desert "
mircea_popescu: in that sense, yeah.
mircea_popescu: everyone gets bloodied, which is a good substitute for "not everyone can have sex"
mircea_popescu: there is no win.
mircea_popescu: quite.
mircea_popescu: apparently, yeah.
mircea_popescu: ie, the reason it "succeeds" is purely bureaucratic.
mircea_popescu: because to my eye it looks a lot like it's simply mosfilm.
mircea_popescu: the point however... why is disney the top jackal ?
mircea_popescu: how the fuck you can shitify somethign as shitty as anything lucas ever made is beyond me, but hey. jackal eats jackal and disney's the top jackal it seems
mircea_popescu: then disney buys lucas out and bam, the shittified star wars is a block buster
mircea_popescu: http://www.theverge.com/2015/12/31/10693122/george-lucas-star-wars-white-slavers-interview <<< anyone remember the piece with lucas and spielberg a coupla years ago bitching about how they, THEY can't get money to produce their films ?
mircea_popescu: nolo contendere.
mircea_popescu: no clean there. but whether the man was trying to or not, you can't judge by the output. it'd be, willy-nilly, steeped i nthe stupid context of his culture.
mircea_popescu: this is not unlike you visiting accra and deciding "all i smelled was filth". this may be so, but nevertheless some people try to wash and keep clean. even in accra.
mircea_popescu: !up gabriel_laddel
mircea_popescu: nope.
mircea_popescu: ascii_rear one theory would be that he was going to trb it.
mircea_popescu: “That dude is obviously not Joe Flacco!” <<< epic lafond piece lol
mircea_popescu: myeah, i don't see it either.
mircea_popescu: yes, yes, you're right. but insofar as the fate of people living in the odoacer era is concerned... junkyard wars.
mircea_popescu: pictures with him, brewster and the actual brains behind the operation (different, dispeptic looking sociopath) disappeared off teh webs rather quickly lol.
mircea_popescu: punkman do you happen to recall the name of the unfortunate/idiotic cypriot he scammed for looks ? nicosia uni cs head or something.
mircea_popescu: it used to be the best!
mircea_popescu: bring back the bcrypt to the market!
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-01-2016#1358100 << likely, yeah. been stewing in ignomity for long enough. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-01-2016#1358090 << don't tell me, we get more "brick and mortar"stores ? out of MIT ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-01-2016#1358087 << that's the big secret there. takes what... a year for 18 yo to come to her shape ? maybe a year. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: depends on your definition of time.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-01-2016#1358077 << more amount of celebration is always better. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-01-2016#1358057 << that's what real programming is. ask anyone. ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: in other news, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JytbHDRG0U
mircea_popescu: you know... like bitcoin
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes notrly, but "good enough for a prototits"
mircea_popescu: get it so it pms everyone their hole cards, i'd play.
mircea_popescu: cool, i can take all these okcupid sluts to dinner now.
mircea_popescu: o hey, turns out i made like a btc betting on difficulty increasing.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-01-2016#1357968 << word. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i'd give it a spin
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-01-2016#1357972 << shit sherlock, is that playable ? ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-01-2016#1357953 << yeah, and there's a bunch of derps who he scammed it from, too. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: taxes are OPTIONAL.
mircea_popescu: doh.
mircea_popescu: "Operating largely out of public view — in tax court, through arcane legislative provisions and in private negotiations with the Internal Revenue Service — the wealthy have used their influence to steadily whittle away at the government’s ability to tax them. The effect has been to create a kind of private tax system, catering to only several thousand Americans."
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-01-2016#1357906 << heh he got the top line! ENVY ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-12-2015#1357890 << exactly how "banning" works here. there isn't a "moderator" idiot as a proxy for usg to "make hard decisions" for "the good of the flock". whenever things come to a head, moderation is done by the offender's own friends, and at their own expense. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-12-2015#1357881 << iirc this was discussed last year or w/e last time we were going to make a poker thing ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-12-2015#1357879 << that's not the point. the point is that if you play alone against a table of six cooperating bots you'll get murdered NO MATTER how good you are. trivial to make a bot good enough for this. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: main problem of online poker being, like for social media and everything else - bots.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-12-2015#1357874 << definitely. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: were wookies retarded ? or what was their story ?
mircea_popescu: is it me or does lucas look like a wookie
mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> I'm assuming antifa is anti-fascism <<< it's this peculiar derpy teen thing, mostly in yurp. sort-of like being a metalhead, but with much shittier music.
mircea_popescu: so put it in.
mircea_popescu: a... bet... consensus ?
mircea_popescu: cheers.
mircea_popescu: !up shmadz
mircea_popescu: which was moderately funny. hint : no dominant male thinks fucking betas makes him gay. and if you think otherwise, odds are it's because a) you're a beta and b) were never within range.
mircea_popescu: anywya, can't find the article now and too lazy to search for it, but it ended on a high note showing some black kids doing sexual domination games and mislabelling them with "gay" and other bullshit.
mircea_popescu: i guess we're supposed to not know that.
mircea_popescu: apparently unbeknownst to everyone, the humanity of white males is in a herd and a concern of the herd. and then the derp thinks he's fighting against the establishment. probably because they're not the right sort of socialists like he is or something.
mircea_popescu: punkman> the hateful eight, notbad out of 5 stars <<< someone from the ridiculous right was pretty well incensed, lengthy article about how tarantino's jew masters use him to push the dehumanization of white males.
mircea_popescu: terrorcake!
mircea_popescu: aaand happy new year dear terrorists!
mircea_popescu: market has its own definition of stupid and it's never socially palatable.
mircea_popescu: this is a common delusion of the young. you will notice, nevertheless, that in general funds underperform.
mircea_popescu: new york right ?
mircea_popescu: adlai may also be the first humorless jew i ever saw.
mircea_popescu: eh that's just plain silly.
mircea_popescu: yes, there is also miscommunication. like you know, exactly how noise on the channel breaks the jitterbug.
mircea_popescu: anyway, perhaps because i've broken the stupid in too many slavegirls, or perhaps for whatever other reason, but the pattern's obvious to me. guy gets a shot at working on mpex, blows it, out of dedication to protecting a certain identity flaw. has shot at b-a voice, blows it, out of same. will continue to blow everything in same manner for same reason indefinitely.
mircea_popescu: that's the thing. education is mere power. stupidity is drive. the two have almost nothing in common.
mircea_popescu: literacy is no defense against stupidity.
mircea_popescu: guy gotta defend his bower, because totally, we're collecting blue items over here, that's what we're doing.
mircea_popescu: seems well structured to my eyes, in this cyclic pattern.
mircea_popescu: captive in this "let's go out" "omaigerd i have so many questions and stuff i gotta say about it and and" "nevermind" "WAIT WAIT HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT TO ME!11" bullshit 16yo females are supposed to have outgrown.
mircea_popescu: well he did get kicked out didn't he ? or what was the story ?
mircea_popescu: so much fucking packaging and meta-packaging for, in the end, ~ a hundred pounds of organic turd.
mircea_popescu: forget the stupid shit, you're just some nobody that'll soon die, just like everyone else. you have no intrinsic value or importance, just like everyone else. you have no opportunities, you have no chances, there's nothing to manage. go do something useful already.
mircea_popescu: you happen to be the sort of misfortunate fucktard that grew up among idiots rather than parents, and as a result are way too fixated on experimentally verifying this hierarchy thing and way too fascinated by the female "oh may gawd what if i sell myself short".
mircea_popescu: <adlai> notice how much mircea hates me... he scratches, he moans, he bleeds! but the thorn - remains. << dude stop being derpy. you're not the only or the first guy to have made or lost money on mpex. it has nothing to do with anything else.
mircea_popescu: which... if the chinese aren't doing it already, it's because they're kinda too slow for this world.
