A Crude Map of Missouri, because where is Ferguson anyway? | Bingo Blog
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo yeah but i suspect he likes it in the way of pick up
a rifle and form
a picket.
The20YearIRCloud: I enjoy the state severely, lots of business, but I can also own
a machine gun or drive
a tank down the highway
The20YearIRCloud: half of my county has no police service, some counties have one officer who works half
a day
mircea_popescu: The20YearIRCloud you're like,
a proud ohio citizen or something, are ya ?
mircea_popescu: it's
a matter of size not quality. once the pig is ripe, it gets sliced.
The20YearIRCloud: Texas has plenty to be leached and they continue to have
a balanced budget and generally more efficient finances
mircea_popescu: wherever you houise it, washington or akron, they'll take
a bus
mircea_popescu: inasmuch as there's
a public treasury somewhere, there's going to be
a troop of people forcing it open.
The20YearIRCloud: The difference in most states is that you elect senators on
a state-wide level, so it's very easy to stack votes in areas (And I blame it on fraud) leading to very centrist/leftist politicians in washington
BingoBoingo: The20YearIRCloud:
A lot of military pork is spent in Ohio
mircea_popescu: The20YearIRCloud: left to their own devices, California, Illinois, new york and maryland would implode << exactly. they're also the only three examples where
a trickle of leeching happens even with the federal govt (ie, it's where corrupt politicians try to build
a career state-level)
mircea_popescu: should the teasts move, within
a year and
a half tops the local states'd be in such
a mess you wouldn't believe your eyes.
mircea_popescu: The20YearIRCloud: Most US states are run pretty well, but when you add the federal goverment into it, it becomes
a huge mess << this isn't actually true. most of the rent seeking gunk is currently sucking out of washington because that's where the teats are, and so this gives the convincing but ultimately false impression individual states are better run.
mircea_popescu: lol look at that, X-Rob is practically at even within
a week.
mircea_popescu: xmj: What would make for
a better home base in 2015 or 2016: Luxembourg, Monaco or Jersey/Guernsey? << awful, all of them.
mircea_popescu: from
a macro perspective the average state size is so heavily upper bound and so set to drastically decline...
mircea_popescu: youtubetard: more complexity is the nature of all things in the long term. So the rise of many many many micro states is very likely. People see Liechtenstein's success << this is actually
a solid point, as unexpected and tenuous as it may seem.
bats_cd03: (some hajjis believe you can't ascend to heaven if
a woman kills you)
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo: Basically ever since 2004 when I bought
a computer I've been waiting for an opportunity to use GPG and... Bitcoin afforded that. <<
a happy fate.
mircea_popescu: punkman: pete_dushenski: sounds like
a death wish << i'd definitely mow him down. fucking biking hipsters.
BingoBoingo: Fanfic is fanfic until Disney buys out Lucasfilm and they promise
a feature film every year.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves: or me not learning my lesson << gotta love the ambiguity in
a functioning market.
BingoBoingo exercises restraint this time, waits to do
a sober read through before publishing piece on NYDFS extending their orders for the quaranteen of New York
youtubetard: I think they'll end up fracturing quite
a bit
The20YearIRCloud: essentially
a somewhat less corrupt version of nationalist china, minus warlords too
xmj: china doesn't have
a Tsar ?
xmj: youtubetard: you cannot credibly limit
a government's authority
The20YearIRCloud: Ohio is
a prime example, in the past 10 years we've finally got
a group in the house that knows what they're doing and are repealing
a bunch of dumb laws
The20YearIRCloud: Most US states are run pretty well, but when you add the federal goverment into it, it becomes
a huge mess
xmj: de-federalized? you mean, proper central state, not just
a fake one?
BingoBoingo: But what if you love her ? What if you love what she’s doing to you, not necessarily for what it is but for it being her doing ? Maybe you even hate it for what it is, on some level, but because she’s doing it you love it anyway. Years later I read in
a learned article that that’s exactly how women love, not for the thing but for its meaning, and I was enlightened. That’s what they mean by the meaning of things, do they ?
The20YearIRCloud: I'd be more worried about making the right decisions as
a state than religious preferences
xmj: The20YearIRCloud: Poland also has
a catholic population, which is fucking annoying.
youtubetard: but that's my opinion. Prices are high there, so I can't see
a benefit financially
xmj: What would make for
a better home base in 2015 or 2016: Luxembourg, Monaco or Jersey/Guernsey?
youtubetard: oh yea, I agree. If anything ISIS has seen the success of the TaliBann in creating
a "Day the Mouse roared" scenario. The US continues to bleed and become bankrupt whilst attempting to maintain "stability" in
a non-stabile enviorment
youtubetard: yea...Quebec will hopefully demonstrate
a peaceful and constructive seccesion
The20YearIRCloud: Eh, gdp between 2nd world and 3rd world is huge, much easier to pay some PMCs and take over
a african despot than say kazachstan
youtubetard: ^prices fluctuate. Just gotta position yourself...becoming
a religious leader helps
BingoBoingo: The20YearIRCloud: Why not in the remains of
a "superpower"
The20YearIRCloud: maybe some day you can start your own empire in
a 3rd world country
BingoBoingo: And I've always wanted to be an Emperor, or at least
a lesser Lord of the Manor much more than I've wanted to be
a librarian.
youtubetard: ah, it does take time...BTC was deff sketch at first, but that's more so if you're used to seeing things from
a consumer/comercial stand point
youtubetard: I built and fiddled with various electronics when I was very little...leading to me building
a computer. Came to
a better understanding of real money and stable currencies, discovered bitcoin in 2010. and have pursued it ever since
youtubetard: haha very nice. Bitcoin has opened
a whole new world to basically anyone will to learn/understand it
BingoBoingo: Basically ever since 2004 when I bought
a computer I've been waiting for an opportunity to use GPG and... Bitcoin afforded that.
BingoBoingo: Well, I read
a lot and sometime people ask me to do things.
youtubetard: ahh ok ok. Makes sense. I am reading up more so I don't come off as
a troll lol
BingoBoingo: as long as you act like
a human being generally people are happy to voice you until you establish youself in the WoT and can voice yourself
ThickAsThieves: though
a hard stop like you show would be
a separate problem probably
ThickAsThieves: the paper has
a coating that accepts charge, the head delivers it in the print pattern, the paper is run over toner and it sticks, then it is melted on, if any full-contact parts were cleaned and have residue, they will disrupt the process
kakobrekla: i guess so, doesnt seem to be
a common problem
ThickAsThieves: <+kakobrekla> anyone seen anything liek this before
http://shrani.si/f/47/UL/3m3knoYx/imag1961.jpg /// the streaking? i assumed it's
a laser printer, you may have an expired head, or rollers/head are dirty. If you mean that most of the print is missing on the new one, well it could be
a major malfunction, bad head. If you mean the dusting on the white area, you may have toner in your
kakobrekla: i thought its
a weirdly broken printer fucker
punkman: on the other hand, I'm pretty used to cars wizzing by at
a few inches distance
punkman: pete_dushenski: sounds like
a death wish
ben_vulpes: "bike as though you've
a million dollar bounty on your head and
a neon jersey proclaiming such", as the aforementioned stephenson wrote somewhere sometime
pete_dushenski: until the day i get hit by
a car and my jewfro helmet cracks, traffic won't stop me from wizzing by at 40kph while i get my history on
pete_dushenski: go for
a bike ride, run, walk, anything other than restlessly sit on two buttcheeks
ben_vulpes: hm cromer has
a book called "political and literary essays"
chetty: <gernika> #bitcoin-assets is an oasis in
a desert of bitcoin idiocy.// oasis in
a world of insanity
mike_c: also useful if you need to build
a satellite that will stay in orbit.
gernika: #bitcoin-assets is an oasis in
a desert of bitcoin idiocy.
chetty: we seem to be getting
a lot of watchers lately :)
pankkake: I fear you left
a note to someone named "foofingers,"
assbot: depositing to bitstamp would be faster with
a donkey
jurov: iirc there was
a bug in homebrew float parser in php
gribble: Error: Something in there wasn't
a valid number.
gribble: Error: Something in there wasn't
a valid number.
mike_c: you drop
a pile of btc on that and you will get action.
mike_c: yes, i remember. hm. i am now envisioning
a page that lists desired features with
a tip jar and people can pay for shit they want done.
usagi: Only
a matter of time before someone applied the lessons of HFT to bitcoin.
usagi: Its the one thing I never really understood about mtgox.. they were making hundreds of million
a year
usagi:
A popular exchange makes so much money I have no idea why they would go fractoinal reserve, it just adds risk
usagi: "Proof-of-reserves for digital currency exchanges has been
a sensitive issue in the community since the collapse of Mt Gox in February."
usagi: Women having the right to go on the pill and become self employed, ahem, is
a great thing. Really.
usagi: The fact that this is never mentioned nor explored is more
a testament to the reason why women generally didn't have any rights in the first place than anything else
