mircea_popescu: o hey!

mircea_popescu: o hey, foundation owning shares, too ?

mircea_popescu: otherwise it'll be nothing but "hey guise, some bits flipped because cosmic-rays and that's how the deed got deeded" all over the place.

mircea_popescu: the point is that this nonsensical construct where "oh, we'll avoid having our balloon worldview pricked by not doing anything -- hey, this guy is doing something, how come he can't give less of a shit about all the pricks we fear ?!?!" is wholly psychogenic. i get that the man-child abomination really truly fears the imaginary pricks he perceives to exist. but it can't be allowed to stand, this notion, that his nonsense is s

mircea_popescu: hey, they got time and aren't easily deterred.

mircea_popescu: hey, global internet, yes. not for things though.

mircea_popescu: hey, i'd love one in say syria.

mircea_popescu: but hey, you got time.

mircea_popescu: hey, i actually tend to take time out of my day and examine candidates.

mircea_popescu: exactly like the braindead strippers who wouldn't pick up a bitcoin for free because hey, "professional" and whatnot.

mircea_popescu: hey, the whole point of even buying tickets at the Decaying Empires show is to watch special interest groupas gfoing at each other.

mircea_popescu: hey, you said same N-arity!

mircea_popescu: from the monkeystan link : "Ms. Luz Lujan, his BOP contact, refused to provide him with copies of program statement rules". but ofcoars. and "ms" luz lujan is going to do no time for this, because hey, good soviet.

mircea_popescu: anyway, this is the fundamental limit of "democracy" in ~any sense~. no sort of consultative body, no matter what kind or type, would have ever fallen on the correct solution cca 1939, which was to say to hitler "hey, you seem like a strapping young chap, tell you what, each dog must have his day says our poet. would you like india ?"

mircea_popescu: hey, representatives.

mircea_popescu: Framedragger hey, they were trying to spread teh nsa goodword!

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform hey, they want to be part of the great beyond / "our" democracy!

mircea_popescu: hey, i am not defending their contortions, i am speaking as to fact.

mircea_popescu: hey, it's a framework.

mircea_popescu: hey, they paid, that completes their obligations.

mircea_popescu: hey, the (at the time, 1917s, 1867s etc) noted anti-intellectualism of usians yielded ~something~.

mircea_popescu: hey, he got mentioned in the most serene republic's forum, no backsies.

mircea_popescu: then those who do lord it over the ones who don't, irrespective of how they had ~no merit in it, then those who don't get frustrated and double down their efforts because hey, it's personal now, and that's how women judge their self worth, and so on and so forth.

mircea_popescu: and "it works" because IT HAS TO, because hey, americans, wholly brain rotten, "can do anything". and if you can you must and therefore let's claim and nobody'll give us the lie because everyone's in the same rut.

mircea_popescu: o hey

mircea_popescu: lol. hey, mebbe it will, mebbe it won't.

mircea_popescu: kitten walks by, i'm like hey, you know this is good for the face ?! proceed to wipe my hands all over her mug. she stumbles to the bathroom flailing about, eyes closed. then five minutes later... "hey her face is really good!"

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nope. a solved instance of this problem would be me going "hey x, i want a new server for eulora, what do you got that's good and where do i send the fuckgoats" which returns within a day or two with options and quotes which i pay which results in the server being live sometime next week.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform come to think of nobody, afaik there exists ONE SINGLE WEBSITE on the whole internet for the whole internet's existence that documents the "hey, check out that time usg got told to go dangle" also.

mircea_popescu: afaik nobody has to date wrote that blog post, "hey, check out the one time some rebel threw molotov into a dc!"

mircea_popescu: o hey

mircea_popescu: o hey nice

mircea_popescu: doesn't seem to be working worth a shit, but hey.

mircea_popescu: hey, you are at liberty to like whatever the fuck you like.

mircea_popescu: hey, it works because there's a large contingent of morons who "want to move on with their life". what fucking life ? "make money on auto-pilot". bitch... do do what ? i wouldn't make money on auto-pilot if you paid me to!

mircea_popescu: hey, it got $random-spamsite linked here./

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so far doing the whole "hey guise i can google plox like me" schtick which is getting on my nerves.

mircea_popescu: hey, it is EXACTLY what the usg banking world did.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-14#1643576 << and let me guess, i'm supposed to expose this incredibly rare and expensive resource for the benefit of the redditard peons, who don't want to pay for it but DO want to make random claims because hey, gotta make a claim to exist and research of any description is way above their pay grade ? ☝︎

mircea_popescu: hey, americans eat ~everything.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform hey, i recall having sed crash on me last week. "tools". zamac 100% quality guaranteed.

mircea_popescu: somehow the fact that i can make the phones ( or solar panels, or fridges/cars/whateverelse) read absolutely anything i wish while the poor fuckers supposedly so represented have exactly 0 recourse and 0 alternative is of no concern ; meanwhile the deeply inept conclave of imbeciles is happy and patting each other on the back ebcause hey, they stole a botnet! worth 2-3mn ie nothing! IT WAS ALL WORTH IT!!11

mircea_popescu: huge fucking loss in human control over human affairs, and meanwhile the idiots are sitting around worrying about "Evil ai". hey, guess what, you don't need the ai to fuck you over.

mircea_popescu: hey, cars offer way too much privacy for men!

mircea_popescu: as you perhaps imagine, mp will readily turn the ratchet the other way, "Hey phf, i thought lisp worked ?" etc.

mircea_popescu: hey, i see not the drawback.
