hanbot: mircea_popescu> there's hundreds of shops, literally, and they all do it by hand. selection being what it is... << actually the majority of them suck in the over-sugared + giant ice crystals sorta vein, but we don't put those on your list ;)
a111: Logged on 2016-10-27 13:28 mircea_popescu: argentina has, bar none, the best icecream of anytime in the world or any place in history. and vice-versa.
shinohai: You know mircea_popescu with this recent spate of pictures of girls holding red cups you have posted, it's probably gonna start eliciting a Pavlovian response in me.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu has been to usa, iirc, neh ?
danielpbarron: mircea_popescu, thay you liken your belief to thermodynamics kinda proves my point. my belief is as real to me (more even) as laws of nature
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: you have to recall that from us govskool perspektiv, where most english-speakers 'learned' things about the world during their formative years, poor == bad IS blasphemy.
danielpbarron: mircea_popescu, i wouldn't call bitcoin or the republic thereof your core beliefs. I'd say it'd be your stance on women and the poor.
a111: Logged on 2016-10-26 19:02 mircea_popescu: but ~you~ couldn't be friends with muslim chicks ?
danielpbarron: mircea_popescu> danielpbarron wait, so i shouldn't be friends with muslim chicks ? << well you don't believe the Bible, so be friends with who you like i guess
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: nono /bombing/ the women's section
danielpbarron: mircea_popescu> danielpbarron suppose the woman believes and the man doesn't, and they're married. << she should both submit to him and also keep the faith
danielpbarron: mircea_popescu> check it out, the trishop has meanwhile set aside apostasy as an exclusion criteria for nuptials. << key word is *friend* -- the point being, if man and woman don't both believe then they shouldn't even be friends, let alone get married
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: so that there's no repeat of the bickening, is 'in principle bash could work like x' the new way forward ? because i don't at all mind moderating bashes. in fact, i kinda like it. i'm also not entirely persuaded that every last bash contender is worthy of publication, but i grant that it's not ultimately my call. either way, i'm honoured to have contravex serve as host in whatever capacity
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: Sarmatians - Wikipedia: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarmatians>; Sarmatian | people | Britannica.com: <https://www.britannica.com/topic/Sarmatian>; The Women Warriors - the Sarmatians - Silkroad Foundation: <http://www.silk-road.com/artl/sarmatian.shtml>

a111: Logged on 2016-10-25 16:16 mircea_popescu: so much so that it influences village life, like at pig cutting time everyone'd make their stuff and then they put it to dry in the church bell tower, which was only opened on day x
a111: Logged on 2016-10-25 14:36 mircea_popescu: the code if anyone wants it is : http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/kndqr/?raw=true to go in /public_html/wp-content/themes/trilema/header.php
a111: Logged on 2016-10-24 20:39 mircea_popescu: now shoes on the other hand, they're different. there's certainly the "i'll buy you this 30 dollar pair of red stilettos, which you then forget in the cab and nobody cares". there's also the fine italian leather shoes which are worth whatever they cost. so dunno.
a111: Logged on 2016-10-24 23:00 mircea_popescu: you wanted to know why nobody made crypto telephone. the reason is - there's no market. the reason there's no market, you explained yourself.
a111: Logged on 2016-10-24 23:00 mircea_popescu: dude... i dunno who this dumb shit works on, but you should probably eschew their company, it makes you stupid.
a111: Logged on 2013-12-12 17:34 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform recall the lolphonograph they had on a ship during ww2 ?

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> mebbe one day. though the gist is in english anyway. << AHA, that's a very important point. Gotta work to understand the rules.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-23#1547445 ☝︎
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: not afaik
adlai: mircea_popescu: answer-answert; afterthought - there's a theory that holocaust survivors' grandchildren are better off than they'd have been if the first assasination attempt against hitler had succeeded, and it's probably not wrong.
adlai: mircea_popescu: thank you for the translation!
adlai: mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2011/arta-pedepsirii/#comment-119537
asciilifeform: adlai: mircea_popescu translated eons ago, and apparently forgot, http://trilema.com/2014/the-logical-impossibility-and-the-moral-untenability-of-forgiveness/
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the tale is not interesting because microshit phones home, this is known even to schoolchildren, it is interesting because 'open sores' now INSISTS on MICROSHIT update enabled
a111: Logged on 2016-10-21 18:34 mircea_popescu: incidentally ben_vulpes would you be amenable to print email received by foo@cascadianhacker.com on wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/foo@cascadianhacker.com for 24 hours ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: domain 'investment' was so closely a premonition of modern shitcoinery scams, that it is almost of a same relationship to them as nipkow's mechanical televisor to modern tv.
a111: Logged on 2016-10-22 05:08 mircea_popescu: just when you think it's done...
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: The operation succeeded.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: We may have invitit a few of them, but they seem to spring up like weeds
phf: asciilifeform: well, like mircea_popescu said above it's not about thiel, it's about whether or not he gets to hang out with rando progre attention whores. of course it doesn't work that way and i don't know why he would want to, but i wouldn't be surprised if in his mind it does. my impression is that he's visibly trying to morph from stormfront "must read litrecha" section to a kind of "let's discuss human nature, surely we all agree"
a111: Logged on 2016-10-21 19:23 mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes the best part about that package is that it actually sends (and delivers!) emails from arbitrary email address. i've been sending as hussein.bahamas@whitehouse.org without complaint, gmail inboxes, the works.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-01 17:40 mircea_popescu: anyway, to bridge this discussion with the kaiser wilhelm "disappeared" daily telegraph interview discussed last week :
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: the one with the mercedes. aha. or the one with the guitar bridge. either way.
a111: Logged on 2016-10-21 00:47 mircea_popescu: anyway, if mining is a bug, then the philosopher king is a backdoor.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: hurtful
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: hyu
ben_vulpes: no it's pretty funny, take a break from inseminating cows and mircea_popescu goes all "oh hey if you have a minute"
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: aye, i could do something like that.
a111: Logged on 2015-05-13 22:47 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/freedom-to-tinker-derp.png
a111: Logged on 2016-10-21 15:22 mircea_popescu: hey, marriage is for suckers.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i dun get why they even mentioned 'cloud', it gave the card trick away in, srsly, 30 seconds of my reading
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> everything's a coin. << AHA, the Qntra "altcoin" tag
a111: Logged on 2016-03-06 15:01 asciilifeform: or we can lift from a mircea_popescu article, 'Another aspect is that new blocks are mined by one group (miners) but have to be stored in perpetuity by another group (nodes). This creates a situation where X (users) pay Y (miners) to inconvenience Z (nodes), which is unsustainable not to mention sheer nonsense.'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i was expecting you to mention... dirigibles
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: Error: "lemon" is not a valid command.
asciilifeform: to briefly go up the stack, 'gossipcoin' is not useless by virtue of being a mach10 jet. i cannot fly it. but it is conceivable that mircea_popescu could. and/or, folks not even yet born, could.
asciilifeform: trinque: it was a crackpot algo which i suggested, ages ago, where there is no objective coin, but instead, e.g., mircea_popescu can mint any amount (with the total base being public) of mircea_popescucoin, which in turn trinque accepts for certain rate of trinquecoin, etc, etc., integrated with wot
trinque: mircea_popescu: while it stays hidden how does it affect the value of gold?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: which is moronic if there is any way to avoid it.
asciilifeform: 'mining is a bug' because, as mircea_popescu even appeared to agree earlier, it is promisetronic.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what was the face-busting cultural identification earlier ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in so far as i can tell, modern american tatoo is ~always ~meaningless.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: was there a typical tat ?
asciilifeform: btw i've been trying to come up with useful scheme standing on paillier, for >decade now, and if mircea_popescu writes one, i promise to read it.
a111: Logged on 2016-10-19 23:51 mircea_popescu: btw phf did you load the old archives yet ?
asciilifeform: i would rather leave it as exercise to the patient reader, mircea_popescu et al, than press it
trinque: mircea_popescu is afaik proposing the communication of these is encrypted; asciilifeform is seeing them transmitted in teh bare
asciilifeform: let's temporarily leave this part for later, and posit that mircea_popescu can both add and multiply homomorphically, via whatever means. i'd like to hear how he carries out the branching.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo lulz of all lulz is that well... not only jill stein is poisoning the clinton vote ; but so is johnson, some-fucking-how. << That's been on Qntra for months nao
mod6: mircea_popescu: makes sense. we'll discuss.
mod6: mircea_popescu: a fair point. we have been pretty frugal. we have considered paying for a few things, but they never were fully baked.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> would this be something teh foundation might consider sponsoring, ben_vulpes mod6 ? << werd. we'll discuss and get back to you. o7
AforA: oh and where the hell are my manners: thanks for the voice, mircea_popescu :)
a111: Logged on 2016-10-19 23:29 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform check it out, lt onoda died recently.
mircea_popescu: AforA i'd certainly give a look at the result of trying to shove the whole 100mb log into that graph thingee ; because even something relatively simple like say MY wot looks like http://www.btcalpha.com/wot/user/mircea_popescu/
a111: Logged on 2016-10-19 23:55 mircea_popescu: which is the non-log part ?
phf: mircea_popescu: i'm not telling him what to do either; i sometimes rant alongside asciilifeform, but i don't actually think gabriel_laddel should be doing something differently.
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: I will be, but as of yet have not even googled for a guide on how to do so.
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: as a "client": kiwiirc on a bad connection, beirc if in the mood or default to emacs "host": nfi, never done it.
