mircea_popescu: BlueMeanie4 why not ? are you like a loser or something ?
asciilifeform: im just not excited about anything i see << constant state of excitement is a medical condition, doctors say 'priapism' and it is curable. be glad you aren't 'excited' at all times.
mircea_popescu: idiots. well, ignore exists for a reason i guess.
assbot: How I was wrong : Cuckolding, or a story about sigmas pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile at the trilema ranch of feminist pain, http://trilema.com/2014/how-i-was-wrong-cuckolding-or-a-story-about-sigmas/#comment-106375
mircea_popescu: yea, it's a diminished hemohorror.
mircea_popescu: Coming soon! At a cinema near you!
mircea_popescu: i wonder if there's a fetish where the guy wants to eat out girls that have priorly masturbated with pizza rolls
BlueMeanie4: they are not quite facts, but similar and have related qualities and are a diminished form of such
BlueMeanie4: it's like a 'mini fact'
mircea_popescu: so what's a fucktoid ?
ThickAsThieves: she thought she was a virgin cuz she only had anal
mircea_popescu: "what's that ? " "like a virgin that's really obsessed with the notion people are trying to fuck her. paranoid virgin."
ThickAsThieves: my first gf was a virginoid
nubbins`: elijah wood is a virginoid
mircea_popescu: this should totally be a thing. "honey, i'm a virginoid."
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves like a virgin.
ThickAsThieves: not a human
ThickAsThieves: like a human
mircea_popescu: a humanoid is some sort of human-resembling thing. a factoid holds more prejudice : it's a nonfactual fact-looking thing.
asciilifeform: no. it's a little tabl.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` that's nonsense. next you're going to believe a tabloid is a littler table.
nubbins`: the definition of factoid was in fact a factoid for me this whole time
mircea_popescu: nubbins` no, it's a direct anlogue of useless trivia.
mircea_popescu: <thestringpuller> it's weird how this issue hasn't been addressed << they're called power rangers for a reason you know.
ThickAsThieves: factoid is a factoid
nubbins`: i always thought the word "factoid" was a direct analogue of the phrase "useless trivia"
hanbot: ;;later tell BingoBoingo Is it just me or does hanbot blog with an unstated anger and foreboding that seldom comes through in mircea_popescu posts because mircea_popescu need not give a fuck << you sayin' i give too many fucks? is that what you're sayin'? like what, like i'm an angry foreboder, here to amuse you?!
kakobrekla: >Providing you with financials only provides grist for your complaint mill, and gives you more to moan about. So that's not a priority.
empyex: TomServo: Want a bash? http://bash.bitcoin-assets.com/?quote=6 Or use a valid MPSIC!
thestringpuller: it's weird how this issue hasn't been addressed more in use cases since there is no way to really set up a trust fund of sorts with time-delayed transactions without the risk of the beneficiary double spending
thestringpuller: ;;later tell guevara246 this is a problem I was working on. even with a single sig a timelocked transaction can be double spent if it another valid transaction is broadcasted and accepted before the timelock expires the original transaction becomes expired
guevara246: Hey, I have a question regarding P2SH and timelocked transactions: in a use case where a client is purchasing a good or service using a 2 of 3 multisig scheme, can a timelocked transaction be broadcast to the network and invalidated by a second transaction, signed by the same agents, sending outputs to a different address?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: not sure what his story is << herr handle is a u.s. army officer, now working at a not-too-hard-to-guess-which world-famous bureaucracy.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform architectural style. << this is such a lol, because yes they do it, it's almost as if trying to copy own glory moments resulting in cheap tourist shop replicas. just... why!

BingoBoingo: It's just odd driving through a suburban residential neighborhood and passing the squat dentist looking office park and seeing a Northrop Grumman sign
asciilifeform: they even sent a stereotypical woman to prepare stereotypical coffee, and served it on a bar, lifted straight from a 1950s american tv scene.
asciilifeform once had the good fortune to visit just such a 'park.' inside: mildly refinished warehouse, with plentiful cubicles and many hanging models of satellites; on the walls, hanging mementos of the 'glorious reagan years' - 'this floppy contains our first flown firmware!' and more in that spirit.
BingoBoingo: <BlueMeanie4> plus you can pretend you dont understand their insults << This is the benefit of having at least vulgar familiarity in a 3rd language
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: they're traditionally 1-3 floors. make life a little harder for kgb binoculars, or whatnot.
asciilifeform: just be sure never to confess to knowing a language - or people might speak it to you, and that'll be a little like work.
Apocalyptic: asciilifeform, you got a point
asciilifeform: exponentially difficult << 'learn' for translating a diplomat - perhaps hard; reading articles in your armchair slowly - not so hard

Apocalyptic: BlueMeanie4, it's a bot

mircea_popescu: An amazon giantess named Dunne let a midget screw her for fun.
fluffypony: Vexual: well I did marry a German...

fluffypony: mircea_popescu: I'm already a benevolent dictator in my own little fish-pond, so it's not like I need to concern myself with those governmental humans that consider themselves my leaders :-P

HeySteve: well I'd say we have a kleptocracy here, and the results have been poor
mircea_popescu: the azn tigers are simply the net effect of a mob getting in power and pushing the gas to the floor.
mircea_popescu: HeySteve that's a complicated argument. the scant examples for your azn theory, for instance, all come from mobsters.
chetty: <mircea_popescu> take the us as a fine example. the black ~~~minority~~~ there STILL thinks it's your fault.// holder recently talked about how horrid it was when he got stopped and searched, the fail is that whites get stopped to but thats 'normal', blacks are only stopped because they are black ...
