mircea_popescu: mike_c "The requested URL /wot/trust/ was not found on this server."
mircea_popescu: if indeed "they" signed wrong domain, as opposed to matt rude being derpy, we will know down the road.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile, i just had a very bloody steak. must be because i've not yet discovered how to make beef unedible.
mircea_popescu: "Sure, we can all agree that the assumptions made about the nature of blacks at the time was wrong, but that doesn't give us the right to condemn slave owners who didn't know any better. We don't condemn cave people for eating uncooked meat just because they hadn't discovered fire yet, do we?"
mircea_popescu: lol wb scoopbot_revived . apparently it does catchup work now, which is great.
mircea_popescu: i should hope the man's mental processes weren't as disordered in all fields as he displays here.
mircea_popescu: you don't understand how the world works. when you're out of money, you find someone who has some and either steal or beg for it.
mircea_popescu: take einstein. he died lieing about his gfs. didja get that bit in the log ?
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski who the hell's any of these dudes overpower ?
mircea_popescu: (this is ITS failure, try it as it might to misrepresent it as theirs)
mircea_popescu: im sure they have excellent personal histories. but, much like in the case of the messiah you hadn't heard of, the "culture" or w/e it is fails to meaningfully represent them.
mircea_popescu: this is how boy becomes the castrated sort of cvasi-intellectual jewish world always produced. the women love the style because it flatters their inferiority complex, the men tolerate it because they don't like fighting (or think they don't, because they grew up the same way)
mircea_popescu: no, just, to make taxation bearable and spending of public funds effectual.
mircea_popescu: hardly. more like an inhuman force of nature that has the potential to be massively disruptive and interfacing him to the village may well cost more than it's worth.
mircea_popescu: the boys aren't expected to SEDUCE those married women and OVERPOWER their husbands, are they ?
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski what do you think yeshiva was originally ?
mircea_popescu: (note incidentally that the ancient superset of family life - each kid eats with his mother - is harem life - each kid eats with all the mothers)
mircea_popescu: nah, not just that. having kids eat at different houses each day so they could stay in school ?
mircea_popescu: basically, jews came up with the first social security system. this, cca 2000 ad.
mircea_popescu: should really see what itproduces as a blockchain first. at a bare minimum
mircea_popescu: it's also why it had to be made (it's quite obviously a remake of casablanca, without the "girl next door" slime befouling it). that point has to be addressed.
mircea_popescu: she never actually confronts this, which is why To Have and Have Not is a much better movie than casablanca.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field anyway, if it's not obvious, the tinny piano in the parlor downstairs explicitly says the woman's a whore.
mircea_popescu: there's a reason nubbins` finds the mentally insane so fascinating. that reason is that he has the deep intuition that the only people worth the mention are the ones that don't actually care.
mircea_popescu: (it's from casablanca, bogart says it to the stupid priss w/e her name is)
mircea_popescu: of a tinny piano playing in the parlor downstairs."Mister, I met a man once when I was a kid," they'd always begin.
mircea_popescu: Yes, that's very pretty. I heard a story once. In fact, I've heard a lot of stories in my time. They went along with the sound
mircea_popescu: maybe if he had nice tits and i was fucking her. maybe.
mircea_popescu: but this distinction without a difference /me can scarcely be interested in.
mircea_popescu: i guess it's possible he's just a bodysnatcher victim, rather than outright ill intended.
mircea_popescu: for that matter, the problem with yarvin was not the broad strokes, but all the empty mcdonalds wrappers he glued to them everywhere.
mircea_popescu: today most models have insecure leadership, and so "corruption", which is NEVER a problem, ends up misrepresented as one.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field yeah him. and incidentally, this is the secular driver of the collapse in quality of life and everything else seen since the 1700s (it is a horrid collapse once you do inflation-adjustments) : back then leadership was secure, and therefore either good or motivated to improve, ever so marginally.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` is her nose big enough to qualify as a rachel ?
mircea_popescu: and to do a meta point here, to go with the meta point above : this entire discussion is a fine point to explain to the managerially challenged why you can't "control the evaporation". where intelligent people lay, nubbins' lateral discussion of "bullshot nobody cares about" sparked stuff people do seem to care about.
mircea_popescu: (as the above explanation, consider moldbug's very valid discussion of the guy with the ring that could kill. he who is secure in his authority makes excellent leadership. he who is not - horribru)
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes similar but not identical, and the difference is way out of scope here.
mircea_popescu: which is a fine entry point for explaining to the naive why exactly a properly explicit master-slave relationship is the best intimate arrangement available.
mircea_popescu: yeah, the funny thing about the human condition, in its fractally-deliberate misdesign, is that the slaves are altogether more likely to be creative than the masters.
mircea_popescu: fetlife bitterly discovered same recently. was kinda fun to watch.
mircea_popescu: (and no, i am not aware you can be a successful king without a harem. your gender is not particularly relevant, your sexual preferences are not particularly relevant either. but you will have a lot of intimate relationships with a lot of other people, who are comitted to you personally.)
mircea_popescu: outright ignore "compliance", spend the time and resources on the harem instead.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, moral being : forget about putting your time and effort into "compliance". for one thing it's stupid. for the other thing, who the fuck are they ?! and finally it's deliberately made to not be a satisfiable requirement. just there to soak up your time and resources.
