BingoBoingo: <kanzure> mircea_popescu: the trick is convincing everyone to give me their science each day. most people just say "nah you'd die from information overload" but they haven'
t tried. << Have you tried building an obelisk for your science. I hear it works wonders.
BingoBoingo: * asciilifeform was about to ask 'she ain'
t named tanja lange...?' lol << LOLOLOLOLOL
mircea_popescu: which should answer #hpluswhatwas it's curiosity. i can coerce, because people can'
t live with themselves if they don'
t do as i say. a lesson some learn on own skin and some intuit naturally.
kanzure: mircea_popescu: the trick is convincing everyone to give me their science each day. most people just say "nah you'd die from information overload" but they haven'

mircea_popescu: omfg my derrogatories don'
t even register with this guy.
kanzure: i haven'
t checked if that's the case.
gabriel_laddel_p: mircea_popescu: criuise ships don'
t really check ID + bribes exist. I can probably take a one way cruise, hop off & become someone else if I felt like putting in the effort/
mircea_popescu: has to be federal, which wouldn'
t be for "trespassing" ie i got drunk at a party.
kanzure: yes but the scihub person isn'
t do that :(
gabriel_laddel_p: mircea_popescu: fwiw, can'
t wait for the 5-10 years or w/e to come meet irl at some point.
gabriel_laddel_p: to finish that story, I was not even at this party, and don'
t to any of them + have started charging people to meet with me.
gabriel_laddel_p: mircea_popescu: nah. like 20-something. I don'
t talk to her or anything, but, again, people run into, ban, then discuss me at lenght
gabriel_laddel_p: girl was not attractive enough for me to care, already been paid, the startup idea isn'

http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-09#1667584 << it is not, and ain'
t going to be, i'm not especially interested in helping folx to 'embrace and extinguish' it. as far as i'm concerned, 100% of the output is verifiable with the bignum calculator of your choice (e.g. 'bc') and it is no concern of anybody's how it was obtained.

http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-30#1706495 : i'm beginning to wonder if it was simply because of WHO asked. i can'

gabriel_laddel_p: asciilifeform: you realize I don'

gabriel_laddel_p: asciilifeform: actually, someone who works next to thiel day in day out got demo'd masamune. didn'

kanzure: well if it's true that i was the origin of her doxx (which is totally possible, i fucked up), that might color her deicsion, although her continuing to talk with me anyway doesn'
t add hope to that being right
mod6: ah, werd. but you didn'
t need to "urban kayak" your way out the door or down the street?
mod6: went back to that .ua place kramarczuk's for lunch. had another ruban, got more sausages from the deli. couldn'

http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-09#1695538 "the pogoplug experiment had nothing to do with scaling" << also it worked fine on my pogo. the only issue was i was doing it on some systemd monstrocity of a linux. There's no reason it wouldn'

mircea_popescu: btw, did anyone actually buy gigaom after he quit or what happened ? i didn;'

mircea_popescu: "oh i didn'

mircea_popescu: this doesn'
t go into how unqualified "you" are to implement such a thing. and by you i mean collectively, every monolinguistic english speaker, pantsuit, jew, etcetera.
mircea_popescu: nasa isn'
t even there. so no, nobody gives a shit what "nasa readiness" bla bla says anymore than what tardpedia wrote on any topic.
a111: Logged on 2017-08-30 18:43 kanzure: also: around these parts, is it sacrilege to speak about technologies that aren'
t at the far end of nasa's readiness scale? that might explain a lot.
BingoBoingo shocked fake news hadn'

☟︎ mircea_popescu: the red thread being, that they JUST ARE. didn'
t jhave to do anything for it.
mircea_popescu: the MOST you might be trusted with would perhaps be something like a de-pdf-ing bot, which you don'
t want to do because you (wrongly) imagine it's beyond your level.
mircea_popescu: so no, you won'
t be given any tasks of responsibility. certainly no "spending of billions" and other nonsense ion terms of "% of world gdp"
mircea_popescu: the fact that you don'
t know how to sort the list of problems DISQUALIFIES you from discussing the matter. and matters in general. children are to be seen not heard, is the idea, and yes you lot are mentally about 9yo.
kanzure: i don'
t think lungs are currently compatible with that idea. is it beyond understanding that such a scheme would require different components?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i don'
t live with the situation because im lazy.
mircea_popescu: for one thing, the pumps aren'
t going out, they'll be here no matter what. water dun climb 1k feet out of fellowship.
mircea_popescu: so, i don'
t have a reservoir here. i could build one, but i don'
t want to, because it'd be too small (there's a minimum size of reservoir, because the algae ie "taste" is a function of surface approx, whereas volume obv matter of volume ; if your tank is not big enough it'll be flavoured.)
mircea_popescu: shocking how simple measures never occur, "coincidentally". really, it .. wouldn'
t be practical to mandate anyone on the public budget stop using fossils ? awww.
BingoBoingo: <kanzure> no that doesn'
t work so well; private space ventures would then also be world government instruments. << If private space company aggresses my tomatoes with sunshade, that is a tort and an aggression. Traditionally remedy for unwanted shading is chainsaw
BingoBoingo: <ben_vulpes> hubris of ameliorating "global warming" is pretty cute, right up there with terraforming mars. << Eh, the right weeds would prolly do most of the terraforming themselves. Probably won'
t make much more habitable, but still more earthlike
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> totally. what the fuck is kik anyway, the irrelevant nonservice that facebook didn'
t buy for a trillion ? << Porno messenger promoted through craigslist spam
