mircea_popescu personally doesn't care about books anymore, but can readily see the collector's mindset.
mircea_popescu: chetty oh remember how giggly they were when we ended up in the wrong car ? lol
mircea_popescu: for the record, egypt had women only cars in the subway
mircea_popescu: so now the choice is between system-d and system.html ?
mircea_popescu: shoulda been jolie's crown. but libertardism can ruin anything.
mircea_popescu: heh yeah. stoya is probably the defining woman of the 2000s.
mircea_popescu: that said, a bunch of these twerps were pretty rotten. jack warner being a fine example
mircea_popescu: fifa should probably just convict "us prosecutors" for fraud etc.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo basically, these dudes allowed the us into soccer in the 80s, now the us doesn't want them to be the bosses anymore.
mircea_popescu: yeah sadly this is not really distinct from plain rewrite
mircea_popescu: or as that chick in pride and prejudice points out, "sometimes it seems like wanting someone to stick his finger in your nose"
mircea_popescu: but the error here's thinking of sexual behaviour in objective terms. there's no such thing.
mircea_popescu: so you don't understand the appeal of something you've never tried. not so remarkable neh ?
mircea_popescu: romanian expression of superlative chickdom being, "as fute-o si-n pizda"
mircea_popescu: anyone wonder why they prefer to win imaginary victories via bribing whatever newspaper is fashionable that day ? shit's damned expensive.
mircea_popescu: this means each aerial victory the us has obtained through its most successful program to date cost ~350 million dollars.
mircea_popescu: since we were discussing airplanes : f-15, pretty much the only successful military jet to be ever designed and produced by the us by itself, has cost ~35 bn for the ~1200 items produced, and has managed a total kill score of ~100.
mircea_popescu: i'd much rather take someone's word. which requires people motivated by their own functioning head.
mircea_popescu: (i could diddle one too, what use is it. we need the actual item, not something custom made)
mircea_popescu: the chumps derping about self-importantly on "cryptographic" "lists" etc are certainly using it - but so far too dumb to realise they shyould be looking.
mircea_popescu: hunt for it has been ongoing, but we don't have one yet
mircea_popescu: ascii_field well inasmuch as that's what "produce milk, pull cart, turn millstone" means, you did.
mircea_popescu: i can see why, too. if there's no actual items involved there's much less risk to doing it all, as nobody can ever be shown definitively to have fucked up.
mircea_popescu: mats not just the thunderbolt. same story with the warthog. idea being basically "we wish to move on from this real-items tethered system of bezzle to a system of pure bezzle. we do not wish to have any further actual items involved in the entire allocation and expenditure of budgets thing"
mircea_popescu: jurov seems they're making the point quite plainly : "we call this encryption, but really it's only intended to keep your pictures on stolen phones away from the thief. nothing absolutely to do with security, just a gimmick"
mircea_popescu: ascii_field for the record ben_vulpes has a point. unmilked cow gets mastitis, unexercised slavegirl gets neurosis.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: amusingly, romania had a similar thing going coupla years ago, sent half the coaches/club heads/trainers etc in the country behind bars
mircea_popescu: i suspek it's mostly because i use "good pet" as a congratulatory term. as opposed to variations of "you motherfuckin' bitch you!" and so on.
mircea_popescu: i will for the record point out that the way alf and apparently everyone else's adopted "pet" to refer to their SO is driving some of the slavegirls up the fucking walls.
mircea_popescu: "when i see birds using ddt i'll believe it" or somesuch
mircea_popescu: maybe dog knows but believes it somehow is exceptional for him.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform he has a point. yes, they will try, which is why you (the impersonal you) wants to get out of there.
mircea_popescu: <mircea_popescu> in any case : the beatings will continue.
mircea_popescu: lmao schmuck is STILL going on with his retarded "no comments allowed" posts about how bitcoin this or that ?
mircea_popescu: soon enough usg folk will be able to eat paper and so on.
mircea_popescu: but then you yourself do notice that no, they can't eat, when you say "folks pointing out that if you want to eat these things -today-, you need -significantly- better connections and de-facto 5-10x the money."
mircea_popescu: weren't you insisting, a day or two ago, that "these folks can still eat - unaffacted" ?
mircea_popescu: the idea is to make it impossible for anyone to use it for any useful purpose.
mircea_popescu: the idea isn't to make it impossible for the usg to pretend like itexists.
mircea_popescu: by which i mean facebook and its spawn, twitter, reddit etc.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nor is there any hope for naive "social media" pseudo-businesses in the future.
