mircea_popescu: btw, what time does sean connery show up at wimbledon ?
mircea_popescu: pretty sure i saw the thing attached to miner's helmet
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i tell you honestly, if i actually had to run a retarded linux thing for each of these i'd strongly consider just giving up.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform indeed they know how to be poor but happy. it works through being mentally retarded. they'd be equally happy if they were rich. they'd also be equally poor even if they were rich.
mircea_popescu recalls the lulzy instance when "big deal" silicon valley firm wanted to talk but a) principals "didn't have the time" to come visit and b) they really didn't see "why i'd need" three first class tickets + hotel of "pick from this list" + the rest of the rider.
mircea_popescu: this because the usg is a great expert at making claims and putting forth pretense, but can't generally pay a cup of coffee if it comes to it.
mircea_popescu: it's quite obvious they won't pay the >10mn they owe on perfectly good claims to various users.
mircea_popescu: the all boys/all girls thing is beyond retarded anyway.
mircea_popescu: <gernika> I wonder what is the sane mode of behavior for a child stuck in the public school system? << what the black kids do. fuck all the girls in class by the age they're 14, and whether they want to or not.
mircea_popescu: <ag3nt_zer0> i said "no i'm not" << the one remarkable quality of six year olds is how quickly they can transform adults, even if specially trained, into other six year olds :D
☟︎ mircea_popescu: wow, i thought the k-hole was some sort of play on r/K selection
mircea_popescu: on the topic of falling into holes, the ability to back up the shit one comes up with being like the #1 requirement of manhood.
mircea_popescu: !v assbot:mircea_popescu.unrate.adlai:4815aef3f452efc113340bc91579662c4cb4c996da005dae934ec757866c19e8

mircea_popescu: what shell out? how many usians do you know that EVER owed 3k free and clear, in their hands ?
mircea_popescu: the usa you live in, much like the argentina i live in, is wholly made up of people who buy the fucking yearl agendas on time.
mircea_popescu: and obviously, why the fat stupoid failures that protest lost before the game even begun.
mircea_popescu: this is also ~why~ you put young women on the fucking stilts and back them against the wall.
mircea_popescu: trinque which is why the man is humble, and squinting. he sees what you see and wonders how to go about it.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo no way im reading that nightmare in prose.
mircea_popescu: she holds her own just fine, and she's on fucking stilts and backed against a wall.
mircea_popescu: that's exactly the woman's problem, you know, how to not get fucked. seriously.
mircea_popescu: (do not click the above if you have any reason to suspect the glass in your monitor is weak)
mircea_popescu: tar was still used for insulation in 4.5V batteries when i was a kid. and the cells were paper wrapped.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: and if you think about it for a moment, it should be apparent why any sort of an alternative scheme wouldn't even work. given that yes, radiation is a fact of cosmos.
mircea_popescu: (those reasons being chiefly that woman comes with fully formed ovules pre-packaged. an ovary is essentially a bunch of candy-wrapped m&ms, and her period consists of one of those wrappers being torn. whereas a male comes with a sperm CREATION mechanism. so if the male is damaged, the male is out. if the female is damaged she'll just ovulate a different skittle.)
mircea_popescu: (and yet he should be - in practical terms a population that spends x on sheltering women and x on sheltering men will fare ~35% worse than a population that just spends 2x on sheltering men. because women are for many reasos much much harider)
mircea_popescu: (and how convenient she's female - i'd like to see someone keep a 19yo guy pinned down with the old folks for six weeks.)
mircea_popescu: the girl (i think it's a girl ?) setting the table does not shit ? why's she get a plate then ?
mircea_popescu: sure. but specifically what interests me there is, which two sleep in the same cot.
mircea_popescu: and no. just look at all the "Whitegoods" and the proliferation thereof. usians love item count like they love their absent virility.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field how much shit is produced in six weeks by a group of three people ? not counting the water it flushes with, just the shit.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field im not too keep to manage a larger count of items.
mircea_popescu: in short : contrary to what peoiple think, there is no actual scope for decisionmaking in systems design.
mircea_popescu: you could in principle then just have a dedicated process for single task networking.
mircea_popescu: networking is chiefly multitasking because of the way it's implemented. but even in systems built to mt, there's a dedicated box added outside.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: mats i don't see a way to implement his scheme as anything but running dozens of machines to replace my desktop. which, in fairness, was one of the proposed approaches back in the 70s.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: , it was certainly entirely obscure to the target. one point however was not : three people, two beds. so did they assume the immature human naturally sleeps in bed with her father or mother ? which of those two individuals aren't really separate in the thoughts of the intended viewer ?
mircea_popescu:
http://40.media.tumblr.com/njE9Bw4rvg8ruhzlh5Q7AHg9o1_1280.jpg << all sorts of interesting assumptions in there, such as "the toiletries don't matter because we don't like to think about them, being puritans" ; or "even plants need multiple times their mass in nutrients over extended periods, but you'll fit your stuff in ONE cupboard alright". this all doiesn't much interest me, because while obvious to anyone thinking
☟︎ mircea_popescu:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-08-2015#1253407 << you blessfully ignore the part where THEY CAN BARELY AFFORD A CHAIR. you understand this, do you ? the schmucks that are "ceo"s and whatnot, can barely afford their own breakfast ? the reason airbnb HAS TO exist is because if they can't sleep on each other's bike rags they can't "go to conferences" and prop up the whole word cloud ?
☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: but i'm more curious about how you view the vietnam thing in your own experience.
mircea_popescu: moonpunter that part for sure. then again his target aren't intelligent people, nor any people likely to try and think the matter through independently.
mircea_popescu: i suspect many laptops are sold in the manner of printers. except you pay for "service" instead of "cartridges"
