mircea_popescu: from end to end, this, the same stable this. from "i can not read this book, the words contradict" "psychopath!" to all the way, it's all the same fucking problem : programmable machine or boulder ?
mircea_popescu: the entire echafaudage of pantsuit is, in last examination, not so much an attempt to protect "the indolent from the active", nor (as separately seen), a guarantee to impotence for "ecology". but rather, jointly and singularly, pantsuitism is an attempt to protect the world from words.
mircea_popescu: the more i think of it, the more i believe this to be the correct formulation. it's not merely, or specifically "me -- hither ; herd -- thither". it is quite specifically, and all-importantly : do words rule your worlds ? or do you expect "your world" to overpower my words ?

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is not a crime, you just have very bizarre approaches to interfacing, is all.
mircea_popescu: the implication is simply -- "i do not need words for anything and why should you".
mircea_popescu: and you can't put "this is keccak" in manifest because it has to get into the manifest through being in the filename, rather than just in the comment line ?
mircea_popescu: the things that end up discussed as a result of "wouldja publish proper tree so others can patch on it already"
mircea_popescu: not "to rename files". as time passes, regrinds happen ; nonsensical nym-bs won't carry.

mircea_popescu: im not about to call zips .zip-not-toothpicks instead.
mircea_popescu: for all i know .zip is "this truly ancient and obscure format for publishing toothpicks". da fuck i care.
mircea_popescu: hey, i didn't tyell you to take the insane stance ; merely the necessary result thereof.

mircea_popescu: and /media is so that the whole /cdrom /cdrecorder /cdfutipemata don't overwhelm /
mircea_popescu: mnt is for "temporary". because i have permanent mounts!
