mircea_popescu: once you're old enough to stand on your own you're more than free to make your own. but so far, not there yet. working at it, yes.
mircea_popescu: <ascii_field> and i'm supposed to respect it because the gods smiled and pissed some money on it. << you're supposed to respect it because you're not old enough yet.
mircea_popescu: also, this particular attack is ongoing, i see about 32% of txn rebroadcast malleated.
mircea_popescu: <punkman> didn't the first best new very strict DERP encoding solve that one? << mno.
mircea_popescu: check out bizarro tx rewriting. i issued fca843c0b40a1755eee073a719c856baa7fbf5ac28db84804a44a91f52638632 which worked as expected, but apparently there's a 5269a0e862876040db21706a7849ffd1b7d63e72d6dd61b1d2431a51698bb007 restatement of it
☟︎ mircea_popescu: are we betting wherer agent scully lost her freenode nick pw ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: you could never understand HOW IT FELT. because it never "happened" to you.
mircea_popescu: i can't be the only one who went fuck this, im making my own.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla aha. artwork is massively helped by the thing.
mircea_popescu: if sold with a time machine to take us back to 1992, this'd actulalywork.
mircea_popescu: neighbourhood kids pitch together buy a printer, make all the legos they';ll ever need, on the cheap.
mircea_popescu: what WOULD be pretty cool is if they managed to get it to where you canmake lego pieces out of it.
mircea_popescu: (my curiosity on the topic so far was assuaged by breakingapart some 3d printed matter and reading a little on the chemistry of the "ink")
mircea_popescu: but basically, the "3d printer" redditard thinks about is this "plastic hanger injection device", glorified.
mircea_popescu: sorta like how derps looking for the perfect soulmate are unfucked. this works.
mircea_popescu: maybe they swore they'll not shave until their master plan's complete.
mircea_popescu: or is the plan ultimately to obtain sphere shaped heads ?
mircea_popescu: what would make the laser follow your face and how would it do it ?
mircea_popescu: im not sure what is going on there, mentally. conflating the sharpness of a blade with the sharpness of a laser is not unlike confusing "strict discipline" in a bdsm setting with the strict discipline of the woodchipper cutters.
mircea_popescu: the magic is that a) you don't need it everywhere and b) people move a lot.
mircea_popescu: "i've always just went into my basement, what do you mean it's a radiocooker now".
mircea_popescu: ask first time home buyers looking for a detached house if they know what a radon area is or not.
mircea_popescu: and this is universal. ask people if they have a foot of air behind their fridge, and if they say yes ask them why, and see.
mircea_popescu: but anyway. i maintain the general : you'd be surprised what % of the general population washes correctly, and the only reason you don't know about this is that you don't end up watching hundreds of them shower etc.
mircea_popescu: you know, low volume high pressure jet is more for cutting metal. contrary to what men (perhaps excusably) believe, cunt's not made of steel.
mircea_popescu: anyway, the above is decade+ out of date, maybe it mended meanwhile.
mircea_popescu: and i thought all modern gurlz live in usg quarters with low pressure showers.
mircea_popescu: (you'd be surprised what % of "first world" teenagers discover on the porn set that yes you're supposed to wash in between the clitoral hoodand the clitoris, what the fuck. it's still part of you, no matter what your dumb mom might have said christ told her.)
mircea_popescu: "what do you mean my snatch stinks, I'VE ALWAYS WASHED IT LIKE THAT"
mircea_popescu: it's just... the sleep of reason. "habits" and habituation take over.
mircea_popescu: and then, because this is the lulzy part, it's like a fucking prion this thing. then! people who should fucking know better try and cater to it! and then they get used to THAT and get all agressed when you don't.
mircea_popescu: china, meanwhile, has been in the business of being europe while pretending to be congo.
mircea_popescu: how is it not as disgraceful, you know ? the us is in the business of being congo while pretending to be europe.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field well, it is also known that many streets do not have fiber,also.
mircea_popescu: the historical "sexual modesty" of north america being the original, and to this day best example. in its many plurious expressions, from "rright to life" to that derp linked yesterday or w/e
mircea_popescu: the one line on which entrenched rent seeking interest and stupid but unaware youthful enthusiasm meet, is this particular type of idiocy.
mircea_popescu: prolly more a "you know what could help real estate values ? if other people couldn't build sane houses anymore"
mircea_popescu: trinque> dude, I leave for a weekend and a chick with great tits from TX shows up called AgentScully WITH THINKPADS << prolly shortlived
mircea_popescu: all this timswansonism i swear. "we are so and so" because words and things so we don't have to wot or anything. we could put the nonsense in a pdf if you prefer, that makes it more legit!
mircea_popescu: <trinque> and I'll tell you what; this country is gorgeous. It'd be quite a nice place under new management. << word. nothing wrong wih the states mostly on the grounds the mob stuck to the coasts.
mircea_popescu: tho honestly, i do not currently believe the old fucks actulaly have it in them.
mircea_popescu: it is conceivable, if the same pencildicks keep on with the tail up, "regulate" blablabla that we WILL have a market in stolen daughters traded around to prove a point for a few years.
mircea_popescu: things normalized by 1995 or so, which is why this is a derp field now.
mircea_popescu: (echos of this problem are seen in patent nonsense like "embagro russia" that so miserably backfired last year)
mircea_popescu: the car theft thing was very briefly +ev, right after fall of su when a lot of otherwise powerful and important people didn't have their power and importance correctly credentialled by the western pencildicks
mircea_popescu: "The lack of transparency and regulatory oversight raises a number of risks for users and also poses risks for the payments system, the integrity of the financial system and the erosion of the tax base.
mircea_popescu: "If I sell you a few kilograms of depleted uranium and you use it to create a dirty bomb that renders most of the East Coast inhabitable, how is that my fault?"
mircea_popescu: but otherwise, heating off the damned tank with ferried gas etc is still cheaper than using electricity.
mircea_popescu: course greece (esp stuff like crete) is a bit of an outlier. no gas lines, which is unheard of in yurp, and no real need to heat.
mircea_popescu: punkman iirc they bury a 20-50 cubic metre tank for you if you ask.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: (salt content is a function of intended maturation period, the longer you wanna keep it around the saltier. still, within some bounds)
mircea_popescu: gets stronger the longer it waits, of course, but the salt doesn't get it runny.
mircea_popescu: anyway, re the cheese, as apparently it's unknown other than "that south transylvanian cheese" : sheepmilk cheese is cut up thinly, salt is added and ths is mixed (often, by hand). the result is placed in a tube made out of pine bark. it may or may not be smoked. it can also be placed in a sheep's stomach. inthis arrangement it keeps indefinitely, it is geenraly consumed after about a year.
