phf: but no in
this case israeli is
the reason why i was
there (for a burek) but
the dodgy is everything else about
the place. it might as well be starbucks, except
they don't have
those fancy starbucks machines so
the "baristas" can fuck up however
they want and
they do
phf: oh i see, some movie Brooklyn stereotype, in my experience
though israelis run a
tight ship
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: rereading, i can see
that. i guess it was just ambiguous on first reading. my bad.
pete_dushenski: when i
think 'israeli owned dodgy coffee shop' i
think of a place with open baklava on
the front deli counter, flies buzzing, dirty white linoleum floors, dusty ceiling fans, etc
phf: pete_dushenski:
things
that i find dodgy are
the kind of
things
that attract womeninbusiness obviously
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski well
they're
the only ones with a voice in
there.

http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-03#1562665 << yeah

thing here. so
the recognized participants being diana_coman hanbot and BingoBoingo - agree amonst yourselves
to select a winner and let me know who it is.

there's a dodgy israeli coffee shop in
the neighborhood (they make shakshuka and burek
though, which are good, when
the israeli guy is running
the kitchen), which is a favorite meeting spot for local "career" women. i just spent about an hour half listening
to a conversation, and for
the love of me i can't figure out what it's about. "yeah should reach out
to such and such i was on his board" "yeah such and such is now at such and such
pete_dushenski reads. finds
that it is so. battered and fried pig guts! oooeee!

the mechanism at issue is
this god forsaken bit of americana
tardism where recognition = knowledge.

this
ties into
the earlier
thread about nra membership leading
to 'buy gold!' spamola in
the post box. just having identified
that
the stock markets and fiat money markets are rigged or
that
the gendarmerie are on schedule is considered salvation, and
this is cemented with
the purchase of
talisman xyz against evil spirits of clitlerokracy.
☝︎ phf: the
typo was unintentional
phf suspects hackgod.me has a significantly higher snr
than google.com
mircea_popescu: google.com?hackdog.me should go
to google com notwithstanding it belongs
to hackdog.me by
the standard because IT HAS GOOGLE COM IN IT!!1 and hackdog.me doesn't understand how
the world works! and anyone who still remembers
the standard is just putin's bitch! and hurr durr!
mircea_popescu: how
this nonsense is supposed
to pass muster is anyone's guess. america dun need
to be made great again because according
to wikipedia it still is!
mircea_popescu: this is more of
the same bullshit "oh you asked a question, OF COURSE you wanted an answer from wikipedia, because in our arbitrary private listing "wikipedia" is what answers questions because we say so, and
therefore here's a "search engine" which is a machine of returning
the "most relevant" results for your query according
to our handmade list of what should be relevant and
therefore is."
phf: modern browser will helpfully render
that url as "google" for you, so as not
to confuse with such complexities as domain hierarchy, protocols, paths, queries, etc. so once
they went down
that path of madness incorrect parsing becomes a "YOU COULD BE
TRICKED" situation, because you could,
thank you google
mircea_popescu: they're patching
the error of lynx doing
the right
thing in 2016 as it did in 1996 ; except meanwhile everyone else went fucking clueless.
mircea_popescu: trinque
that is
true, which is why it should go
to hackdog.me.
the last dot gives
the
top level domain, ie me.
the
thing before
that, is
the local domain, ie hackdog.
the
thing before
that is in error and
thus discarded.
phf: YOU COULD BE
TRICKED!!!
trinque: question mark isn't a valid hostname character, only [a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9-_]* iirc, or
thereabouts
mircea_popescu: the fact
that "Your browser" fucks up url parsing isn't an argument.
mircea_popescu: l, it's
there, and it's a
thing. it's also a way of life - apparently, for an entire people by now.
mircea_popescu: the indignity of adult female caught in nonsensical academic expectations on a college campus,
trying
to "keep up", at least as far as appearances go,
through social engineering her way
through
the
teachers, cold reading
them like
the last lounge lizzard and at all
times
trying
to scent
the prevailing opinion in
the wind like some sort of illiterate but desperate fox is not apparent
to any who've not fucked
them as such. stil
mircea_popescu: and
therefore
to
them, "the cathedral" and "quantum computing".
mircea_popescu: to
them it's a case of "what do most of
the
teachers seem
to consensus" because
then
that's "of course" known.
mircea_popescu: a whole whorde of "educated" kids with an interest in "science" and "technology" do not. it's not merely
that
they do not know what we know ; it's
that
they do not know HOW we know.
to
them knowledge isn't
this multi-dimensional accounting system which sums
to null on all edges.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform consider
the case of "quantum computer", picked randomly from a set of
these. you, or i, or others here possess
the math and physics needed
to evaluate
that
thing. and so we know, as a factual matter, it dun exist.
BingoBoingo: trinque: You worldview may be
tinted by
Texas colored glasses. Dindus, MENA refugees, and white heroin are rapibly eroding
the suburbs elsewhere.
trinque: however,
this environmental change doesn't look
too hospitable
to a clinton. we'll find out.
trinque: the environment changed;
this always matters, and it's
the only
thing
that matters
trinque: where's
the (loop do (and-anyway))
thread
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> chinese soy will be grown in american ex-parks etc. regardless of which party wins election << ALready happening in Missouri. Called "Right
to farm" implemented
through... ballot measure of all
things.
trinque: and if I were a fledgling Republic, all
the more
trinque: if I were either Russia or China I would be very happy about
this
BingoBoingo rather certain
that Russian observers in cook and st clair counties in Illinois would be sufficient
to
turn state "red"
trinque: USG just went from supahpowah
to pedowitch infested shitland in a few decades
trinque made no mention of
the public
trinque: when else could
terabytes of evidence be dumped upon a "Clintons"
trinque: crypto exists, bitcoin exists, leaking is a
thing, ...
mircea_popescu: guessing "what
the word could mean in context" doesn't mean you read
the fucking book ; and "things making sense"
to you doesn't mean
they exist, or
they make sense.
mircea_popescu: the mechanism at issue is
this god forsaken bit of americana
tardism where recognition = knowledge.
☟︎ trinque: aha, agency does not reside in
the NYT, Harvard, etc
mircea_popescu: if i go
to some idiot boys whose bodies outgrew
their minds and both of
these
their
testicles and
tell
them stories about women,
the government and blabla,
that
they "form an idea" of what i said has no bearing on anything. not on women ; not on government ; and not even on ideas.
mircea_popescu: not even as far as evolution. if i go
to a starving village and feed
them sushi and
tell
them sushi is
the best meal
there is,
their dutiful repeating of
this does not even constitute an opinion.
phf: is
that sort of like "evolution" being an emergent behavior, so doesn't actually "exist" as an object, likewise asciilifeform is naming processes described in manufacturing consent "cathedral" and claiming
that i can go
touch it
BingoBoingo: hanbot:
ty. "total lack of fear" is part of inner peace
that comes from
the Big Book. page 83 paragraph beginning at
the bottom of
the page features a description
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it counts for something. it doesn't count for what you
thought it counted - because
there is such a
thing as unhomogenous medium.
mircea_popescu: trinque importantly - powerless.
that
the algae swing with
the
tide doth not mean anything about
the algae being
the moon.
mircea_popescu: i'm not going
to entertain
the "plox state our own delusion
to us,
that we may pretend it wasn't it".
mircea_popescu: in
the sense in which it was presented, and in
the sense in which you misrepresented it
to yourself
throughout
the past half decade.
trinque: is
this a cultural
thing? asciilifeform sees same behavior among many, assumes
there must be command/control
taking place?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the "cathedral" never had any consistency outside of
the pointless drivel of some redditard or other. apparently readily swallowed as fact by a certain demographic.
hanbot: BingoBoingo diana_coman mircea_popescu "right mess" indeed lol. anyway, i appreciated bb's story on account of its
total lack of fear or restraint, and diana's for its jabs, particularly
the spellchecker. i'll be naming myself
though, on
the simple criteria of having liked it best. as far as second and
third places go i'll name bb second and diana
third, for no other reason
than
to see all possible positions expressed.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: woman's got a week or so left of free range
time,
that's it.
mircea_popescu: lose ?
the notion
that clinton is walking away from
this election seems
the height of naivity.
trinque: if clitler were
the chosen one, where's
the leak of
trump's
tax returns, or w/e else.
BingoBoingo: And seriously
Trump united KGB and FBI in harmony.
trinque: why?
Trump's going
to usher in "NSA is our hero"
trinque: Trump administration will just say
the pardon didn't apply
to X, neener
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: No need for new jails. Obama will pardon
the crack epidemic on his way out.
mircea_popescu: funny reversal of
the "mp is headed
to jail" meme.
turns out...
the entire usg goes
there first ? WHO COULD HAVE... predicted.
mircea_popescu: should be funny
to watch a few
thousand old men and women
toil
to death in
the southern deserts.
mircea_popescu: contrary
to popular belief, mexico WILL pay for
the wall if
the grunts doing
the hand labour in chain gangs will be hillary, reid and friends.
mircea_popescu: pretty much everyone anyone ever heard
the name of involved in blue politics can go
to jail starting
tomorrow and stay
there for
the rest of
the century,
there's enough paperwork
to cover it.
mircea_popescu: anyway. other
than end of gop,
trump victory likely will also be end of democratic party.
