mircea_popescu: hanbot, really ?
they were making a big deal about
trying
to benefit from localbitcoin closure

http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-05#1917374 obscura : apparently
the "just as good" (spoiler : not very good) replacement is something called "paxum". also
the hardcore wannabes /
rape victims gathered around "ethereum" made a localethers something or
the other clone, of course.
BingoBoingo: Anyways, punchline of
the last one is
that
the worst sites in
the US aren't on
the list because USG.MIL
BingoBoingo: Throwing out how
the world appears
to work as I understand it for
the readers because I have
the good fortune of having good reader who can rattle me closer
to correctness if I am
too far off
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
ty, fixed.
trishophood would be some ways out.
The last dozen few month's blog posts are mostly
thought and note organization.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in #harem news,
tangle (tm) wrist-bound but otherwise nude raver girlies make for a pretty... well, interior decoration, how shall we put
this.
mircea_popescu: in light of
the marked
tendency of your last dozen or so articles, is it
the case you're sorta
training in
the corner for a
trishophood ?
BingoBoingo: Anyways
the Uruguayos did demonstrate
they are not as fucked as
the Argentines by at least an order of magnitude, maybe
two or
three will be demonstrated by July first
mircea_popescu: too bad slavery's no longer
the default resolution of
tort.
BingoBoingo: Anyways, Argentine fuckery opened all sorts of
torts
BingoBoingo: Deeper investigation after
the Qntra on
the subject
turned up
the interconnect station
that shat
the bed was
taking input from
the Salto Grande Uruguay and Argentina share
the frame of in addition
to
the big Paraguay dam
mircea_popescu: yeah,
the more modern, mroe efficient dam gear squeezes
that extra % at
the cost of all sorts of intolerances. you can't run a dam on no load
BingoBoingo: 1860s all over again except
triple alliance is Brazil and
the
two guays against Deptitina
BingoBoingo: If Argentina's fuckery
took Paraguay's dam out of sync and damaged anything
there aren't enough
turkeys over
there
to resolve
that
tort
BingoBoingo: Not unprobably. Whatever Argentina's bureacrats do by candelight
tomorrow is probably going
to piss off both rotary-guays
mircea_popescu: should never have been permitted
to exist in
the first place, unseemly fucking abscess on
the butt of
the world.
mircea_popescu: they can do whatever it is
they do without. without power, without anything else. in fact --
they could do whatever it is
they do just as well without existing at all.
BingoBoingo: Especially not since
their are importing luz
to run resistive heaters
that don't do SHA-256
BingoBoingo: What is more dificult
to discern is whether Argentina is restoring
their power and how quickly
BingoBoingo: Within 8 hours, most of Uruguay had power restored. Apparently across
the river
that was not
the case
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I have power, Uruguay in general has power, rack appears
to have never lost power.
mircea_popescu: trinque, hey, were you gonna do something about
that count so it's not lifetime but "currently active" ? or where was
the discussion left at
mircea_popescu: (ethereum people are really 100% about bitcoin, kinda like how us-based, nominally "protestant" supposedly independent "churches" are 100% about catholicism ; or us-based "nigger hating" / "taking down
the zog machine jew by jew by jew" "white power" groups are 100% about
please fuck my wife now, she's ovulating. it's
the us
thing, don't ask me
to explain it.)
a111: Logged on 2019-06-05 22:05 Mocky: localbitcoins decides
to
turn away all
their remaining legitimate users in. RIP LBC
http://archive.is/kfpKC a111: Logged on 2019-06-15 19:14 asciilifeform: aim is a 'mips 4000' compat. item (for ease of hardwarization, when
time comes) if anyone cares. and at some pt will also have
to port gnat, cuntoo...
to it.
BingoBoingo: Also back
to exporting electricity
to Argentina
though unsure what load on
their grid
they could be satifying given
their very slow restoration of luz
BingoBoingo: An update on
the power situation: Since
the local power company must compensate customers for outages here,
today's events incurred a rather substantial damage. Curious
to see
the fireworks
that'll happen whether or not UTE pursues
the money from Argentina's power company.
BingoBoingo: Crowd appeared
to have
temporarily altered
the city's demographics sufficiently
to be ~Portland instead of ~Detroit for
the day
BingoBoingo: Apparently 6, maybe 7 figure paleface crowd went
to Saint Louis
to celebrate
them getting
the hockey
trophy.
There apparently were no
typical "urban" incidents of note.
BingoBoingo: The bubble
though is very visible in baseball where, without salary caps or other "fairness"
things..
the free agent market has been very dead
the past
two years.
mircea_popescu: nah, it cycled later. peaked in
the 90s. will be i nthe same hole 2025ish
BingoBoingo: Hockey appears
to be
thriving either in spite, or because it doesn't draw
the excess ananlyst wank Basketball and handegg do
mircea_popescu: for
the first
time ever,
the 1-in-10 girls athlete (aka stripper) will outincome
the 1-in-100k boy athlete (aka black dude)
BingoBoingo: It seems
the US sports bubble is fairly well popped with
the NFL and NBA having popped
the most.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu>
that and declining cable interest. << So Antel has a free
tv streaming
thing all of
their customers can use. One of its few channels is NBA network
BingoBoingo: I suspect "la criticaron" when used by Mujica is him
trying
to sell his socialism as Frenchish
mircea_popescu: or maybe
the us infrastructure's crumbling
to
the degree nba actually has
to play in uruguay
BingoBoingo: I suspect some sort of exhibition or maybe
the Harlem globetrotters misrepresented as
the NBA. Worst NBA
team versus national champion Aguada could be pretty lulzy
mircea_popescu: these orc minds in which "to critique" is
the up
to date, digital way
to say
the bad
BingoBoingo: Note
that in
the Argentine-Uruguay interconnection relationship... Argentina is
the IMPORTER!
BingoBoingo: Does not appear
to have affected
the Pizarro rack.
Took out power in
the habitation module for some
time.
BingoBoingo: In other news ARGIES FUCKED ELECTRICITY UP
today
diana_coman: that much is
true and partially why
the old houses are "better" - because at least less mchouse in principle, at least along
the lines
that it's anyway picked as "the best of old houses since
the worst are anyway not even standing anymore"
mircea_popescu: yes, but standardized "the
times" housing as available now is... well...
diana_coman: from at least one perspective, it's hard
to argue why would one ever actually *want*
to leave in someone else's house - assuming
that it was indeed built
to fit
the original owner's specific idiosynchrasies rather
than
to fit
the
times,
the neighbours,
the architect or whatever else
mircea_popescu: sure, one might preserve
them, as museums. but i wouldn't wanna live in
the house a rich jew from 1819 built for himself and his family anymore
than i'd wanna live in
the mote & baily some never-washed briton built for
the ugly lass he broke his prick in
mircea_popescu: one of
the first articles on trilema is about ~this. my opinion hasn't mellowed out with age, but on
the contrary -- from an utilitarian perspective,
the leftover constructions are fit for demolition and naught else.
mircea_popescu: but it's also not rock --
that stands upon itself as only support.
diana_coman: well, look we got ps "for free" and it's not even
THAT old!
mircea_popescu: you
think so because you've never
tried. but it is my considered oppinion retrofitting bath into 1800s "palace" is marginally more pleasant
than retrofitting sane memory managemet into windows excel.
diana_coman: I don't
think I actually know of ANY orchard as I'd want it in whole Romania, myeah.
diana_coman: renovated old buildings so I'd assume
they actually have
that sort of
thing but admittedly I haven't actually visited any of
those myself (and fwiw afaik wineyards or woods rather
than orchards)
mircea_popescu would not
take "classic" euro "palace" for free, piece of shit HAS NO BATHROOMS
mircea_popescu: nothing built before 1950 is built in any fucking sense, what, ima dynamite pathways for plumbing
through
their haphazard river rock and mortar aglomerations ?
mircea_popescu: (notwithstanding
that i do not believe
the item described physically exists in
this whole oregon, because
the locals are monkeys)
mircea_popescu: and, obviously, it'd have
to not be in
this jurisdiction, because romania sucks.
mircea_popescu: i guess other
trees might work, but certainly not fucking "prodution" apple or other 3 meter
tall lolshits
mircea_popescu: ideally what i'd want would be 16 or so hectare's worth of wel ldrained soil on calcarous substrate, moderatelly hilly, covered in walnut or mixed cherry planted 20 meters apart sometime around 1970 ; within 20 miles of a main road but not closer
than 5.
mircea_popescu: moreover, how are
they gonna make it be in an old orchard ?
mircea_popescu: yeah, but how are
they gonna excavate a floor underneath ?
mircea_popescu: (srsly people, what
the FUCK is
the point of having
tubs smaller
than
the human being ? you don't make beds like
that, do you ?)
mircea_popescu: shitty, 1 bathroom per floor and what's a 3x3 meter
tub
mircea_popescu: you can not rent
the hosue i'd build for any money. mostly because nobody generally includes half inch
thick steel rings in
the little girls' basement cellrooms
mircea_popescu: and don't ask me how
this is possible. i have nfi how it is possible. i agree it violates basic economic laws.
mircea_popescu: somehow romania consists of a large aggregate pile of debris whose individual cost
to own exceeds both expected lifetime utility and replacement value
mircea_popescu: unless i rent a mall... and honestly,
the shit here is not worth owning.
a111: Logged on 2019-05-23 19:57 mircea_popescu: hello all, from
the european castle mp!
mircea_popescu: as cool concrete
two level subteranean "parking" / basement built
to industrial standards would be... in
this shithole it'd be a liability more
than anything.
mircea_popescu: anyways, i was entertaining vague "why not buy a few acres of orchard somewhere, plant down a haremhous". but i'm now
thoroughly disabused of a notion
