mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo inasmuch as you know that there's
a phase 4, you also know your addressing didn't work.
decimation: heh, no teletype is an old-school method of transmitting ascii/baudot from
a computer/remote station to your 'terminal'
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> it's like, what's the difference between phase 2 and phase 4 lymphoma ? << The chance of addessing the problem completely with
a knife and some anti-folates?
ben_vulpes: on
a radically different topic (if nobody minds), when miscellaneous computerboxen tell me "falling back to teletype" is that
a reference to the Teletype Corporation of the thirties?

a thing that the us progpagandacrats came up with to point at to distract the proles from that as what was going on on the daily at home

a real economy? << One that doesn't resemble the dating environment in
a prison
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: for the poor student - what is
a real economy?
ben_vulpes: with
a heavy dose of "also we can handle with
a fair degree of politeness anyone in your business who feels compelled to comment on the quality of our work"
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: I'm approaching this problem though as someone dropping into
a culture as
a full time n00b

a lifelong USian what professions might exist in actual economies

a lot more fascist than stalin ever got... i guess prepare for
a helluva lot o' love.
decimation: absolutely, the cold war defense complex was aimlessly looking for
a 'mission'
BingoBoingo: Were there really that much of
a backstock of American Flag Lapel pins just waiting for such
a crisis?
decimation: BingoBoingo: agreed. The same "anti-"communists now hate Putin because he represents everything they hated about Soviet fascism. This is why usg has such an irrational policy vis-
a-vie Russia
BingoBoingo: decimation: The paranoia shapes the discourse though, as well as the range of possible public discourse.
A the end of the Cold War the Soviet block got to purge that, but the "West" had to redirect it to prop their system up.
ben_vulpes:
a sample of some horrible modern klezmer techno
BingoBoingo: <decimation>

decimation: ben_vulpes: in the world of ex-gov't employees collecting their post-employment paychecks, this was
a pretty stupid case

a Boeing job for her daughter's then-boyfriend, Michael McKee. McKee was "immediately contracted" by Sears and began working at Boeing in September 2000, the document shows."
mircea_popescu: decimation "scam" only inasmuch as boeing is tbtf anyway, so without this scam it'd have had to be
a different scam.
decimation: it is well known that the way to 'game' this system is to provide very favorable business terms to
a large company, who will hire you after you 'retire' for
a very large salary
mircea_popescu: and in the same vein : i find it amusing that folks in
a quarrel with the government hire government agents to "defend" them at significant expense.
mircea_popescu: the same argument could be made by
a blonde twerking ditz going "it's not that she ever ran into anything labeled physics"
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> what's this fresh danielpbarron drama BigBitz ? << My best impression is he is trying to WoT up

a criminal he'd have to commit
a crime. what's the crime here ?
decimation: is professor
a criminal or part of the overclass?
decimation: mircea_popescu: Here's my confusion. Yarvin would call
a USG-funded professor
a "brahmin", but said professor is
a parasite on society, in
a manner that is much more harmful than your average urban poor folk.
mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> Also ""WARNING: Do not attempt to take any firearm into Mexico << i carried
a .45 all through the us customs, into mexico and back into europe. nobody gave
a shit. costa rica exit checks made an older french woman throw away her clearly rare & expensive cream. i put the thing right on top of the pile, explained to the guy it's got no clip. the guy was "
a ok, if it has no clip..." waved me through. woman's
BingoBoingo: Imma trying to remember
a lot of abreviations
mircea_popescu: power, money and
a disinterest in "theory" as pencilnecks misrepresent it.
diametric: though, I think my days of flying RC stuff are over. the only place i had time to do it at put up
a massive fence that prevents me from retrieving my aircraft when it crashes over the field.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Mexico has exactly 1 retailer, equivalent of
a red state ABV store
BingoBoingo: This just means an innocent backpacker must pick
a cartel sooner to survive to guatemala
BingoBoingo: any firearm as well as to keep and carry any firearm on your person or vehicle at any time, anywhere.

a whole world of white girls twerking lays open to me now!

a lie.

a few 3d printers i want to throw connectors on the tool heads so I can switch out various hotends for testing.

diametric: asciilifeform:
a bunch of molex microfit 3 connectors
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I was but
a larva, I merely wanted to exist with
a minimum of external human dependent inputs and persist to
a natural end.
BingoBoingo: But then you get
a taste of fuck and shit ain't that simple no more
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Through much of my childhood I though winning was getting
a cabin in the woods and simply abiding.
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes> they bill the same for choose your own adventure degrees << I tried to do this and major in "reality studies"
a combination of mathematics and philosophy

a nominally high-end school

a late 90's one. Had exactly all the performance I could want or handle out of
a car

a better highway car by far. effortless 6th gear hauling. fit 2 sets of golf clubs.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> buffett's nobel prize >> might wanna check out what happened to nobel prize in past 50y or so << Maybe the point of fiat and inflation was to turn the Nobel reward into
a "blue ribbon" at the science fair

a 350z for
a few years << how was it? >? new subies?

a contributor, nor chomski much of an arsonist at all.

a city ? << Oftentimes. StL Brick theives have contributed tremendously to Atlanta suburbs, and Florida.
mircea_popescu: so you smell... rotten cum, as
a passing waft. you figure... whatever, my mind's brokt. then you smell it again. eventually you tear the whole house upside down, nothing nowhere. to eventually find it comes from.... an older avocado.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> he has phobias. << Some people come to Bitcoin out of their technical knowledge. Some people like myself come because crazy.
A Yarvin beats around the bushes because of an uncomfortable median?
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: he wouldn't have been out there trying to make
a bitcoin-... << claims that he tried (and gave up, because 'can have problems') << lies. what is the urbit thing ?
mircea_popescu: it'd be
a sad world if white chicks were all fucktarded,

a 1844 postcard sent from paris, wisconsin.

a century worth of chomskis and whatnot "brahmins" has produced exactly 0 cultural output.
BingoBoingo: Anyways, misdemeanor disordely case appears to have been continued. Have to get
a hold of the lawyer to find out in which of the two ways, the beneficial way ot the optimally beneficial way this went.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: You write in
a way that the elements of the emotional rants and reasoned arguments have clear seperations discernable to readers

a mental barrier, for exmaple if he tries to maintain humanism, while rejecting democracy
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu:<asciilifeform> (what's it about in reality? real-time tracking of all meat inventory. and, with
a little more magic - your car is own gasenwagen when time comes.) << they already had
a pilot for this. amusingly, it was sold as an expensive ad on for luxury brands. northstar or something. << northstar was the name of
a fairly awful gm v8, onstar was their tracking device
mircea_popescu: this however is not supported by what we're discussing. when you see someone who displays the mental gymnastics required to comprehend the ffi, and then fails to resolve
a problem which requires merely differential calculus
dignork: malicious vs. idiotic problem is an intersting one: when I see somebody smarter than myself, by say +3 points, i can assume that he didn't find
a solution because it required +4
mircea_popescu: dignork i don't consider idiocy to be any more all-encompassing than genius. one can be
a chemistry genius and die of accidental exposure. one can similarly be
a complete idiot in say politics and yet an accomplished farmer.
BingoBoingo: One can not build
a banana republic by stacking deck chairs on the titanic.
dignork: that's an extrapolation, but
a good one.
