mircea_popescu: i wonder if there actually exists the weirdo out there who spends 9 month intervals on "projects" which consist of amassing pics of random neighbour, then photoshopping wild orgy, then photoshopping her fictitious pregnancy resulting from there, then photoshopping her delivery and so on.
mircea_popescu: who the fuck is into sex for the ... what, the view of after-sex outside ejaculation ?!
mircea_popescu: Some of bitcoin's biggest backers, including BitPay, Blockchain.info, Circle and KnCMiner.com, wrote a letter this week in support of the existing version of bitcoin—but only if it adopts some of the central ideas proposed by the renegade developers, Gavin Andresen and Mike Hearn."
mircea_popescu: "Support is building for changing part of bitcoin's design, after two high-profile developers introduced an alternate version of the virtual currency aimed at speeding up transactions and future-proofing the digital money.

mircea_popescu: pushing the point a little, neh ? i mean what, even the first basic qualification thing for bitcoin is not a week old.

mircea_popescu: because you'd have to be pretty high to imagine THAT is how eating cunt works.
mircea_popescu: this is the deep dark secret they don't want to face. the "effaceable" trend on social media is just that - another expression of the fundamental truth that social media does not matter.
mircea_popescu: ironically this isn't either. who gives a shit what derps say on twitter.

mircea_popescu: pre bitcoin nobody had any fucking idea what computing even is supposed to be.
mircea_popescu: anyway. at least in romania's 90s, the life of a young theoretical physicist was ~90% derive and the rest chicken scribblings of the kind you mention.

mircea_popescu: and one unlucky repair, even one just-such-weight faucet can make the whole thing an organ)
mircea_popescu: (for they unfamiliar : old pipes in old buildings have, like any other rigid formation, resonancy frequencies.
mircea_popescu: in other news, this building is easily 200 years old, the pipes are certainly solid steel, and they got the curse
mircea_popescu: which is fine, whosoever can do whatever the fuck they do, but this voting braindamage...
mircea_popescu: heck, give fathers back the power to shoot toddlers that don't obey commands, see the "demographics problems" end overnight.

mircea_popescu: i get it, you leech and wish to complain about how the content you leech is packaged. this makes sense in your alt-universe ?
