ben_vulpes: employing and accustoming armies of bachelors degrees holders
to a 'nice middle class life'
ben_vulpes: definitely going
to decrease
the cost of living
mats: er, ignore
that prepended life.
ben_vulpes: mats:
this year's freeze killed some homeless people,
to
the endlessly amusing horror of many locals
a111: Logged on 2017-01-17 22:37 Framedragger: meh. dropping
the whole 'all
this is mayongenderism omg' forum kerfuffle, you
think gender played an actual part here? :)
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-17#1604368 << "gender" has no bearing on
the "indentity politics" construction of "gender". what mattered was
that private bradley edward manning was with
the usg.dos and against
the usg.dod. as it doesn't look likely usg.dos will even survive
the
trump
terms, let alone ever again come
to preminence,
they'll do anything.
☝︎ mats: but
thankfully
this isn't such a massive problem as in, say, San Francisco, San Diego
mats: asciilifeform: similarly, i prefer
that my neighbors avoid supporting local homeless populations

trinque: is
this precedent for chopped off dick == pardoned ?
ben_vulpes: filling water
table with esoteric natgas extraction byproducts and lighting
tapwater for lols
ben_vulpes: i prefer extinguishing all fauna and covering
the landscape in identical plastic potemkin suburbs
mats: i prefer
that my neighbors avoid supporting pests
that annihilate
the local fauna
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: yeah,
the beasts i keep find cats entertaining prey
jurov: asciilifeform: next
time lick
the anus, it helps digestion
ben_vulpes: i don't keep cats, you don't need
to caution me about
taking
them home.
ben_vulpes: you seemed
to get along with
those adequately
mircea_popescu: imagine if
that's how it worked, you'd all be married!
thrice!
mircea_popescu: i liked
them
to, but i don't go around picking
them up on
the criteria of how much
they need me
to.
mircea_popescu: not most of all. but contemporary/english "philosophy" is entirely equal
to chatter-of-bored-iran-housewives.
Framedragger: qaulia-tulpa... ...so yeah, most of philosophy is just
the effects of dereferencing language-originating concepts which don't have a reference. one finds random data, or barfs, and proceeds
to mystify results :(
a111: Logged on 2017-01-17 18:52 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: actually i found
this one a few blocks away, on a walk. spent considerable money and effort in attempt
to grow it.
mircea_popescu: seriously, what happens if you get one of
these
to define
the qualia-tulpa difference ?
ben_vulpes: my
tulpa, wife, wife-tulpa and
tulpa-wife all
take offense
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: my
tulpa
takes offense.
mircea_popescu: next some nut is going
to go around pretending ousia are speaking
to him. which is so much better
than you know, plain old
teddybears and doorknobs.
a111: Logged on 2016-12-01 19:16 mircea_popescu: "mice were found in germany which is a country
that once invaded
the soviet union where lenin introduced electricity which goes
through
tubes in which
tubes
today in england most mices live." "OH NOW IT ALL FALLS INTO PLACE!!!"
jurov: ben_vulpes:
that's deprecated,
they are properly named #'first and #'rest
ben_vulpes: oh wait hey did you know
that fundamental lisp constructs are named after registers on ancient machines? omglzozol
ben_vulpes: or hm maybe store
them as rows in postgres
Framedragger: ben_vulpes: admit, you just read about
this on HN
ben_vulpes: wait no what you really want
to do is compile
the binaries pipe
them
through xxd and into vi where you can compare
them bitwise
ben_vulpes: why aren't you using llvm
to crap out asts and diff
those?
ben_vulpes: danielpbarron: what, your diffulator doesn't
tell you about c declaration conflicts?
mircea_popescu: oh and also "danielpbarron> why would adding a declaration like
this cause it
to crash? apparently some other change i made
that works without crashing on its own conflicts with
this somehow".
mircea_popescu: dude is learning difference between data and pointer
to data, it's all good.
jurov: and
the issue is null dereference in destructor
jurov: except
this kalash is c++
mircea_popescu: ah, i'm not proposing anything of
the sort, just giving some "stuff related", ie,
that he's not entirely on his own
mircea_popescu: oh speaking of schizophrenia, anyone seen
the film i watched last night and which is quite excellent on
the
topic but i can't rememeber its name ?
mircea_popescu: survey study, "Consistent and significant differences in Cattell's personality factors were found between
Toxoplasma-infected and -uninfected subjects in 9 of 11 studies, and
these differences were not
the same for men and women."
mircea_popescu: trinque effects of
toxoplasmosis is somewhat well studied. for one
thing it's very prevalent. for
the other, it DOES affect rat behaviour.
Framedragger: will honestly review. i don't want
to appear completely naive here
trinque: I don't
think you realize
the politics behind it.
Framedragger: meh. dropping
the whole 'all
this is mayongenderism omg' forum kerfuffle, you
think gender played an actual part here? :)
☟︎ trinque: they should streamline
this into a state-sanctioned rehabilitation program.
trinque: is
this precedent for chopped off dick == pardoned ?
☟︎ BingoBoingo: Ah, I usually don't see
too incredibly young ones. Most often dead critters I find are smaller ones
that seem
to have been "cat entertainment"
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> unrelatedly, and BingoBoingo might find
this interesting, i finally
tamed one of
the wildcats, but she died four days later. i dug grave at midnight, and wondered if neighbours would call police. but nobody did. << I usally bury dead critters found on premises as well. Just keep
them out of
the compost.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> you should see
the riverfront here. miles of what anywhere else would be primo waterfront real estate, covered in old garbage. << Just like Murican cities!
trinque: "thing
that ought
to have died"
trinque admits *wanting
to* find
that infection drove
these creatures
to live in animal shit
trinque: gotta wonder what role
toxoplasmosis plays in
the hoarding.
mircea_popescu: yes
there's a lot of cats
to
the crone which superficially contrasts
the lots of sheep
to
the shepherd, but
that is driven by
the relative size not
the actual relationship.
mircea_popescu: cat is a preditor.
the old woman is ~ a farmed animal, roughly in
the sense of
the afids ants keep.
mircea_popescu: it's a
thing with old women. classical witch with her cat is not exactly coincidental.
hanbot: fairly difficult for me
to judge which state of affairs is sorrier
hanbot: asciilifeform: she wanted
to be important, i imagine. you shouldn't feed fish
to cats, don'tchaknow, cause what if
that's not what's good for
them.
this, ofc, buried in metric fuckton of babbling,
todo biens, etc. i'm honestly ashamed i didn't outright sock her one. i end up questioning whether i've a moral imperative
to massacre almost every
time i venture out by now.
mircea_popescu: "why shouldn't
this be just like miami ? it's hot and by
the water!" "yes, but miami is mostly party sluts and rich old jewish ex-party-sluts ; wheres buenos aires is
the world's largest open air feebleminded reservation." "so ?"
