mircea_popescu: in otherr documentary lulz, "We who live abroad are accustomed to believe that almost all Eretz Yisrael is now uninhabited desert and whoever wishes can buy land there as he pleases. But this is not true. It is very difficult to find in the land [ha'aretz] cultivated fields that are not used for planting. Only those sand fields or stone mountains that would require the investment of hard labour and great expense to make them
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo sounds liek a decent article illustration lol.
mircea_popescu: nobody with the "smart"phones ever does, which is i guess the living proof of why "smart" phones are for dumb people and the z80 was smart even tho it didn't LABEL ITSELF SUCH
mircea_popescu: hey, everyonre with the z80s was trying to build cool shit.
mircea_popescu: thanks for the markup lol. otherwise yes, pastes go into pgptron, wtf it's broken all that.
mircea_popescu: before i forget : re
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-03#1513931 this item can be exemplared in ro, also. sane clans used the same name for the firstborn, my father was mircea like my grandfather ; but some used vocalic alternation for incomprehensible reason, so the above linked guy's son wasn't ion but "ioan". which is a thoroughly imaginary halph diphtong nonsense ~specifically created for the purpose~. there's no such fucki
☝︎ mircea_popescu: let's say i only know the well established clans of the 80s ; maybe this guy 1st gen intellectual ?
mircea_popescu: Mocky it's mostly slander anyway, as it stands it does that "recalculating" less than 1% of the time.
mircea_popescu: Mocky ftr the item discussed had neither of those misfeatures.
mircea_popescu: because you know, bidirectional linkage fundamental property of proper hypertext and all that...
mircea_popescu: not the kind that can actually respond to salutations tho. ("too much pressure").
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform as close as practicable, yes, bearing in mind however they use excel scripts.
mircea_popescu: the way of the web is "have people talk into the bag", tv minds tryna hard to re-create tv out of the information superhighway truck.
mircea_popescu: yes, well, in that case "i'm busy tomorrow" would carry a lot less water.
mircea_popescu: mod6 you can close it prematurely by convention, i guess. there's good reason not to have a dedicated button, however.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform many things are "partially reversible". phb hanging over table ends up with necktie pulled in. reversible up to the isadora duncan moment.
mircea_popescu: as per "the soldier whio thinks he'll win makes a better soldier than the soldier who thinks he'll lose -- though nobody yet walked on a battlefield and won". or w/e, replace "gambler" for "soldier" if you prefer.
mircea_popescu: anyway, there's many portions of "what occurs" that occur strictly in the imagination. "healthy", for instance. this isn't fundamentally wrong -- but anthropology is specifically the scholarly delineation of these. as they're at least seemingly needed for normal functioning in most contexts, and generally adaptative, they're not readily accessible to the common intellect.
mircea_popescu: ie, i wouldn't trust george hunt to explain kawaikutl, ESPECIALLY because he washes and also speaks english./
mircea_popescu: hence my point, re "they in the culture are strictly unable of either understanding or meaningfully describing culture"
mircea_popescu: the "cancelling" will happen either in the imagination ("this bread doesn't really look as if it were toasted so it wasn't") or else in the imagination some other way. but in reality, toasting is irreversible.
mircea_popescu: there is, you understand this, there is no way to cancel toasting.
mircea_popescu: however, you eminently can't cancel toasting, it's the paradigmatic enthalpic process, and anyone with a college education (such as, presumably, anyone involved in the production of objects, and in general in any practical portion of white civilisation) would be aware.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: (most machine powered moving lines come with an emergency stop, which is also mandated by labour safety in many contexts and for good reason )
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform afaik it is ? actual chopper 100% grounded in all conflict since vietnam war misexperience.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform to quote fresh meat, "oh, obamacare's been cancelled". they don't spiut out any more cash
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you've no fucking idea what you're talking about. it's off.
mircea_popescu: for some reason arresting a third of the judges "unthinkable" in the us, even as having such a thing as "activist judges" perfectly thinkable, and totally not the same as corruption. cuz it's only corruption if it fucks over pantsuit, see, otherwise it's "activism".
mircea_popescu: you can look on trump as a smokeless slow burn erdogan, in this context, it entirely delivers.
mircea_popescu: (they also use phones "because they choose to", you know.)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i generally don't meet THESE (because "they chose not to", of course).
mircea_popescu: these dumb cunts show up to job interviews, you realise ? expect "respect" and shit ? wanna fucking vote, have oppinions about the world around trhem, what have you
mircea_popescu: but imo a fine illustration of the degree, structure, magnitude and physiology of "broken" in the "citizen of free world & open society" aka "useless fucktard headed for redditbagging".
mircea_popescu: maybe finger only moves from ass to mouth andf back, what do i know.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform whatever it is, but the fact their "tool" cuts most of the world out is, according to them, a legitimate complaint to bring UPON THE WORLD.
mircea_popescu: actually... let's put it this way : their terminal cuts at 80cols, right ? and they think "this code does not compile" is an ok reaction to this.
mircea_popescu: i dunno how to convey this, it is still blowing my own mind.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform they literally do not understand that their phone cutting random shit off webpages to fit it IS A BUG OF THEIR PHONE.
mircea_popescu: who the fuck cares you couldn't read the exam questions because they were written in japanese with invisible ink ? YOU STILL FAILED! FOR HAVING FAILED! JESUS.
mircea_popescu: it's ever fascinating, how DEEPLY and ~UNTOUCHABLY!!!~ implanted in twentysomething skulls this notion is that they "must have a fair opportunity" according to ~their~ definition of fairness.
mircea_popescu: Hey, life sorts you lot into cans and can'ts. brooccofull I mean the text cute halfway. So I don't even know what that sentence is"
mircea_popescu: meanwhile at the other mini-lulz farms : "LordMPofTMSR Not even kidding. brooccofull You do know I can't read the end of that sentence right ? LordMPofTMSR
mircea_popescu: fine wine is up there with ro tuica re post-party effects. it's pretty much all mellow no pain.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo not even properly speaking hung over. not like my head hurts or anything.
mircea_popescu: i sleep quicker than other people, see. what they take eight-nine hours i can accomplish in like almost four.
mircea_popescu: hm... in retrospect, this logic doesn't work any better when i apply it than when dutch police does.
mircea_popescu: i'm biologically exhausted and i'm advertising this fact to avoid pantsuit politician #metoos from falling over themselves.
mircea_popescu: in other similar news, i tell you nothing's quite like nursing a hangover with teh online world. bought 16 bottles of fine bordeaux yest, partied with naked girls, to the degree of fucking the same one in the ass twice in the same evening (anal queen this chick jayssu) and so on.
mircea_popescu: keks, so basically the dutch are gonna arrest a whole lotta politicians and other momstate items, and they're advertising this so as to avoid embarassment of bitchslapfest ?
