diametric: you guys are sure he's not
a troll?
danielpbarron: my mom is an adulterer (divorced my dad and now has
a boyfriend)
diametric: danielpbarron: but doesn't the bible also say honoring wicked people is
a sin?
mircea_popescu: so if in your state it's legal, and
a gay dude buys you from your parents
diametric: Well,
a state if
a governing authority is it not?
mike_c:
a true father would advocate the stoning to death of
a christian son.
danielpbarron:
a true christian would advocate the stoning to death of
a rebellious son, even to this day
mircea_popescu: because that man made
a firm promise prenup to never kill her children in this manner.
mircea_popescu:
a woman had
a positive incentive to mary
a christian (this is much pre jesus, btw)
mircea_popescu: \and to improve the ocntrol of this, they found
a place,
a natural canyon,
danielpbarron: The Bible says,
a rebellious son should be brought to the town elders and stoned to death by the community
mircea_popescu: parents loathe this. and more so in 4000bc than today, for today it's only imagined, whereas then it was
a fact.
mircea_popescu: kids die, in 4000bc. unavoidably so, for
a multitude or reasons.
mircea_popescu:
a key part of this risk management was the following weird as shit aspect :
TomServo: my mom rocked
a wooden spoon pretty well
mircea_popescu: speaking of weird compounds : when i was
a kid you could buy coideine phosphate otc. and people did.
danielpbarron: doesn't that warface have to come with the memory that i usually is followed by
a beating?
mircea_popescu: (actually what i said iirc was that if it's needed you suck
a sa parent, which ... well... yeah)
danielpbarron: exactly; they give kids these pills which does damage to their brain; andd that's supposed to be more humane than
a beating of the ass??
danielpbarron: beating
a child is much more human then giving them
a chemical lobotomy
mircea_popescu: <mike_c> what do i care if he wants to roll on the ground at the mall and scream? go for it. << you care because if you didn't you'ds have married
a chimp instead of his mother.
mike_c: true. well, I'll report back in
a few years.
mircea_popescu: re that link : i had this nutty discussion with
a guy at the mall in timisoara, his 4 yo kid was throwing an absolute tantrum on the ground
kakobrekla: * asciilifeform blows dust of 'webtv for dummies' (bought on
a dare in college) < wait whut camwhoreing ?
mike_c: "“Let’s put aside for the moment that by far, the most dangerous thing you did to your child that day was put him in
a car and drive someplace with him. About 300 children are injured in traffic accidents every day — and about two die. That’s
a real risk"
mircea_popescu: davout, meanwhile one has emerged in conversation. you folks coming to live with me in romania'd have had to wait > 10 years plus for citizenship, making it useless. any attempt to get the foreign minister to commit to making ongoing exceptions predictably failed, not for lack of him wanting to help, but for pure wtf... it's
a eu country, it'd have ended up on all the newspapers.
davout: mircea_popescu "moving to norway would make no difference anyway." <<< we're back at criteria to choosing
a place to move to :D
mircea_popescu: that'd be the problem, this "i can do it" atttiude applied to religion. which isn't religion in any sense, unless you count ustardianism as
a religion.
mircea_popescu: and he clearly believed that
a bunch of new world fuctards have truely and really discovered something imp0ortant about jesus.
diametric: asciilifeform: well, i think i was more going along the lines of secularism,
a lot of the population of JP doesn't identify with any single religion but rather pieces of several
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, that's more
a factor of us specific idiocy. there was
a fuckwit in the street hre, clearly american, derping about jesus to people. he clearly had
a mortgage back home,
diametric: I've toyed with the idea of moving to Norway
a few times.. but I have far too many things anchoring me here.
danielpbarron: 09:26:55 <+los_pantalones> had
a buddy at cryptsy that kept getting negative BTC balances << happened to me too
mircea_popescu: i will further point out that argentine citizenship, unlike romanian citizenship, is
a two year affair.
mircea_popescu: do me
a personal favour and don't wait for the exit taxes payable in bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: much like getting into the wot, the best time to have done that is
a few years agp
mircea_popescu: the rest is tacked on because the sec is in
a very unenviable strategic position after our meanwhile piublished discussion, and would like to turn the "either mp's way or the highway" into some sort of "either mp's way or epsilon"
mircea_popescu: <diametric> mike_c: wasn't part of erik's fine simply because he had IPO'd without filing the required documentation? << no. he was fined for having advertised
a glbse scam.
mircea_popescu: this is
a trend that has being going on for three years and is likely to continue : people who think they know better than me / don't listen to me will have problems.
mircea_popescu: you will notice that the mpex offering is attached in the deal in
a spurious and mostly doomed attempt to shoehorn some relevancy in the matter.
mircea_popescu: diametric, well, i'm not
a lawyer, and especially not one admitted before the sec bar
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, as
a s.nsa manager i'll have to ask you to refrain from eating any crazy poultry or fowl,
ThickAsThieves: considering i think the WoT needs improvement and that just because you arent it doesnt make you
a peasant or scammer
ThickAsThieves: i'm
a bit more squishy than you when it comes to these ideals, like No WoT, No Service
mircea_popescu: <ThickAsThieves> you heard it here first, Kate-Craig is gonna default on the ciphermine.b1 bond << such
a successful business-ex-man ?!
mircea_popescu: face the 'bitterness of loneliness' in old age" << this is quite true, he has
a point.
ThickAsThieves: the pope is replenishing hit points "Pontiff says couples who decide not to procreate and opt to get
a dog or cat instead face the 'bitterness of loneliness' in old age"
ThickAsThieves: I've also got the trading bug
a few weeks ago, so dipping into alts too
ThickAsThieves: <+fluffypony> ThickAsThieves: what you doing with Cryptsy? getting ATC listed? /// well i'm emailing support for the seconf time about it, but this time to see if they'll add it to
a special page they have for letting community vote on what to add next. this mechanism also has
a way to pay for votes (i havent done the math)
los_pantalones: then i think
a few more people started reporting issues
los_pantalones: had
a buddy at cryptsy that kept getting negative btc balances
dub: you might be able to donate hardware but they wont give you control of it without
a lot of trust
dub: usually the bar for linking
a server is set kinda high
mircea_popescu: that way, if anything happens (such as freenode going down, or becoming assholes or w/e) we'll have
a set of irc servers ready to go and create our own irc network.
mircea_popescu: fluffypony: IRC meets blockchain technology << actually if you want to do something useful, provision
a server (ie, the actual hardware), donate its use to the freenode people (they have
a special page)
dub: I know another kenneth who could use getting fucked to death by
a horse
mircea_popescu: TomServo, its dawning of me that for it to be
a perforated colon rather than
a torn anus it'd have had to be... in
mircea_popescu: there go asciilifeform's hopes of impalement as
a punishment
dub: the horse is like 'meh, any port in
a storm'
mircea_popescu: "The police tracked down the rural Enumclaw-area farm, which was known in zoophile Internet chat rooms as
a destination for people who want to have sex with livestock, and seized hundreds of hours of videotapes of men engaging in receptive anal sex with horses. One of the videotapes featured Kenneth Pinyan shortly before he died July 2"
mircea_popescu: if i ever turn to
a life of crime and merry robbery, i'ma leave the victims arrest warrants in rem too
mircea_popescu: if that's done away with, dns may even survive as
a going concern
mircea_popescu: dub, i actually had missed that one. apparently my internet use
a decade ago was not sufficiently close to matters of interes tfor the gay community.
mircea_popescu: because everyone is not
a cool jihadist or what was it.
dub: not everyone is
a what was it? cryptojihadist?
dub: which might explain
a dev-dearth
mircea_popescu: TheNewDeal: are you
a bot? <<< ahahaha epic. was waiting for it :D
mircea_popescu: pankkake, and how do the costs to reg
a domain work at all ? is it
a fixed fee ?
pankkake: ThickAsThieves: as well as updated windows binaries, Altcoin could certainly use coin control features. there's the possibility of using 0.9 (perhaps disable payment protocol as
a statement), or merge the bitcoin-omg 0.8 patches (probably less work)
pankkake: I can, I have
a namecoin node already
mircea_popescu: hm. maybe it's time to stfu and actually support it
a little.
