pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: last point (for now): if you skim the comments you'll also notice the softening of libtard revulsion to wealth and an acceptance of their lowly station in life. before our very eyes we're seeing an increased appreciation for the 'my mother isn't your mother' reality. the libtard dream of 'every trainflake can do anything' is dissolving in broad daylight. it's pretty glorious.

pete_dushenski: namely in that even if it's an investment for ~you~, you also recognise that the market probably doesn't agree with your sentiment, nor could it, nor do you care if it does.
pete_dushenski: your battlestation is a perfect example of this.
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: please to show where i said 'investment'
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski went to argentina and drank the water, or wut
shinohai: ;;later tell BingoBoingo http://ix.io/1iav
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: other points of linked m3icle: example of 'assets' into which 'great divestment' was beneficiary (others: ru bonds?), and also eg of btc sale beyond 'us marshalls' fraud - more than just using usgpuppet to move coinz from a-->b in exchange for ~chance~ at lizardposting
pete_dushenski: not saying you do, and maybe not reasonable to assume
asciilifeform: i have nfi re elsewhere, but here in the land of the phreeee, if you have a car and it is seen on public streets, there will be tax questions

pete_dushenski: "Whirlpool says it will expand the program next year to at least 20 additional schools, including one in Baltimore and one in Nashville. Over 300 schools have expressed interest in the program.
pete_dushenski: "It turned out that when students didn’t have clean clothes, they often stayed home from school out of embarrassment. "
pete_dushenski: "When washers and dryers were added to 17 schools through a new program, attendance rates shot up.
pete_dushenski: "Michael, the CEO, introduced himself as the owner of a successful international mining business group, a millionaire investor, and a former JPMorgan analyst." << milliONEaire. the pic's on lastnight.com or whatever that was
asciilifeform: n weighed the pros and cons and decided it was worth it. Then he took the time to Photoshop in each of his 17 employees’ names ...'
asciilifeform: 'What you are seeing is a Photoshopped Google search image that was posed as a real Wells Fargo wire transfer sent to 17 employees via email by the CEO. ... Whoever photoshopped these documents has the intelligence of a 5th grader, but even worse is the person who thought this was a good idea. Think about it. The scam artist sat there and concocted this in his head instead of telling us the truth that the money wasn’t there. He the
asciilifeform: in the company. Bruce said that Michael had his offshore money tied up with the IRS because of unpaid taxes and essentially his assets were frozen until he went to court. '
asciilifeform: 'Around this time, Bruce and I were sharing personal concerns and he confided in me that he had let Michael borrow $50,000 from his personal savings. Did you read that? A startup employee gave his life savings to our CEO. He wasn’t the only one. Another biz dev team bro who was crashing on the CEO’s couch, Bobby, apparently lent Michael five figures too. In disbelief, I asked why he needed money when he has $2M already committed
asciilifeform: 'Jessica, the social media manager, apparently cried when she found out I went to these meetings she wasn’t invited to.'
pete_dushenski: bought 2k btc for ~$2k in 2010 though so not a complete maroon but that's still taking the 'great divestment' pretty far.

pete_dushenski: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160829/from:65/to:65#65 << not ~everything~ is about tmsr y'know. how's that for heresy!1
pete_dushenski: even greenspun's trollage has its appeal for me, if less so than taki even.
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: taki, just like mr mold, is a snore once you've tasted actual heresy.
pete_dushenski: it would be easy. For once the good guys won. The hellholes will remain hellholes without Olympic glory, at least for another four years. That’s good enough for me." << can't have too much calling out of vain, vapid sandnigs.
pete_dushenski: "Qatar and Bahrain paid for foreigners to compete under their ludicrous flags and won two medals between them. Qatar and Bahrain are ugly places ruled by ugly people who think they can buy beauty. They cannot. Just because a lot of greedy Brits sold their beautiful old houses to them, the two sandy hellholes thought they could also buy Olympic glory. Most athletes are professionals nowadays, so they figured
pete_dushenski: I’m not sure about the last one. Boats are now extremely ungraceful and downright unshapely; they either look like insects or refrigerators on steroids. Once upon a time there was nothing more elegant or beautiful than sailing boats with overhangs on their bows and sterns. Now we have titanium trimarans that can do 50 knots and look like prehistoric ants. If you need to do 50, get a boat with an engine."
pete_dushenski: "Why is it that grace and innocence make my knees go weak? I suppose it is because I have a view of the fairer sex more common in an era more romantic than the present. I feel more alive in the presence of beauty, but I also feel longing, both spiritual and physical. But beauty has been downgraded these past 50 years. Beautiful buildings are no longer built, just ugly, modern, so-called utilitarian ones, and

asciilifeform: dunno what the problem was. the lack of rounded corners and css ?
asciilifeform: re to mess with the untouchables.'
asciilifeform: 'Swiss authorities bellyache now about sky-rocketing losses in their financial services department caused by clients leaving en masse...no wonder: Switzerland has been turning clients in, selling records and giving tip-offs for ages to any "alarmed but trusted" party that asked; and third parties given records and tip-offs would typically share the loot with other third parties. Of course it was all about small fry, for none would da
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: <pete_dushenski> no kaunus, but not a bad place << my father, apparently, also liked kaunus. (he went to boot camp there.)
pete_dushenski: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160828/from:60/to:60#60 << because moar is better (tm). more protein in your protein bar, more diamonds on your ring, and on and on ad infinitum. that moar lines of code can't replace a competent cabbie is apparently discussion unbecoming of the 'civilised' set

pete_dushenski: no kaunus, but not a bad place to spend time either. lovely french bookshop on the end of the main square.

pete_dushenski: what's the status on the logs ? phf ?
mircea_popescu: and then you pat her butt.
mircea_popescu: it's simple : you get a girl, strip her naked, make her bend her bubble butt towards you, then you take a magic marker, write I on one half moon, C on the other
danielpbarron: tell me about the art of patience
covertress: I'd like my steak tartare
mircea_popescu: at least elliot had the excuse of biological malfunction. but all his "friends" and colleagues and congenerational derps simply emulate the same decerebrated state. in sofrware.
mircea_popescu: it's the land of dreams, where the normal have something to say -> therefore have a voice -> therefore exist is entirely reversed.
mircea_popescu: because she exists, therefore she has a voice. because she has a voice, therefore she has something to say. don't blame the victim!
mircea_popescu: this the mindset. not of elliot rodger, this is the mindset of a generation.
mircea_popescu: do you understand how the cruel world and the beastly nature of reality bullied AND RAPED him ?!
mircea_popescu: woman "is liberated" so she should get job, right ? she should be respected, right ? he's a liberal, don't forget. he thinks the girls should flock to him because he exists, and because he "never agreed to" they not flocking to him. and similarly buildings - once he decided they should fall down, THEY SHOULD FALL DOWN.
covertress: asciilifeform: people have forgotten the art of patience
mircea_popescu: i don't think you understand how the cruel world works.
asciilifeform: schmuck could have bit down, went to trade school, learned to be a demolitionist; or become fire inspector, learn how to arson properly; or programmer, and ...
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: and i'd guess it was not 'mental issues', but the continuous thread in his life of not ever taking the sweat to get properly skilled at anything whatsoever.
asciilifeform: covertress: thread is re a 'postalist' who, like ~all of them to date, could not hit 'broad side of a barn'
asciilifeform: but he had eons to visit the shooting gallery and learn the answer to 'can i play violin? dunno never tried'
asciilifeform: it'd be one thing if fella touched his first pistol when killing a policeman and immediately going off to action
mircea_popescu: meanwhile without specific training, you'll kill jack shit, and even with, 40 to 1 ? what's that. most survivors in ww2 got twice that.
asciilifeform: or even go to the gallery and 'bag' a few plates.
mircea_popescu: it's funny, this, most people^H^H libtards imagine you know, "guns kill people", like a sort of fucking djinn or something, on command. the animated, locomotive sword of 1001 nights. and they flatter themselves with this idea, you know, that if they took all the stops off and bought a gun and went to hunt people, they'd actually bag much
asciilifeform: it is really rather funny, asciilifeform lost a very cushy usg research job years ago because there was never a second aum shinrikyo incident, and bureaucrats largely lost interest in antidotes...
mircea_popescu: the exact same sort of mental issues that make it impossible for him to walk up to a girl and say "hi!" also make it impossible for him to shoot to kill.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'Have you ever had occasion to see these obnoxious shits the moment there's shots fired, by the way ? I know of no better illustration of USian subhumanity than that fear. He's right : the moment he took the rifle out and started popping lightbulbs left and right, he was a God to them. Moreso than any god they ever knew or ever had' << fella had a pistol. and apparently his time at the gallery was largely wasted, hit
