mircea_popescu: i dun recall. if i said i did, but anyway. deeds of
this nature deserve
to be properly congratulated.
mircea_popescu: the ensuing publicity made it worth ~100x what it was worth before, and made peter
thiel a vague internet celebrity.
a111: Logged on 2016-04-29 01:00 mircea_popescu: so
this schmuck is an "entrepreneur", whatever,
typical socialist state constructed leech, like
they have in ro ru us etc. a peter
thiel (speaking of which, anyone actually recall
the x.com
thing ? which is how he became famous in
the first place ?)
mircea_popescu: i must have missed
the memo redefining "modern" as shitpiss.
punkman: maybe
that is why all
the ustards are always on "a call" or scheduling one?
adlai: clearly
the hashcash
targets are
too low, somebody get bitcoin-godpapa on
the phone!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform sooner or later
they figure out, some at least.
adlai: wait, isn't
the goal of email
to "inbox less"? i
thought not getting mail was
the whole point?
mircea_popescu: back when i was younger i'd actually crusade
to get various "customers"
to
terminate
the arrangement. worked about as well as anything involving
teh consumertard works.
mircea_popescu: anyway.
the emai lthing is run 100% like a scam, with some periodicity some derpass "provider" or other randomly blacklists me, starts sending offers, waits 5-6 months or so for complaints
to pile in,
then un-blacklists me.
adlai: er sorry, i said
the dirty word... back
to
the lulzmines for me
adlai: this = selling insider info
to spammers
adlai: isn't
this basically
the google business model?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform at some point i actually had proof yahoo sold
the content of inbox
to spammers.
mircea_popescu: seems
to me b works exactly
the same way for both services ; and a is irrelevant because you opted
to go into blockhead mode as far as
that goes.
jurov: yes a) is irrelevant b) pls reread. you can check why your *email* server onj your IP was blacklisted. you can't easily check what incapsula
thinks about
the same IP
mircea_popescu: which reminds me - wikipedia back
to "not advertising", right ?
mircea_popescu: spamhaus also, apparently. for anyone actually believing
the "we are here
to halp" angle.
mircea_popescu: buncha fucktarded scammers running
the concern
troll angle, "oh, subscribe
to our service
to protect yourself from spam"
mircea_popescu: jurov wtf ? a) i've been getting offers
to "Whitelist" my mail server for
the low low price of whatever for a decade now. b) you just said you checked yourself, what do you mean.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i said "i'll do x before y", has exactly nothing
to do with what you're
talking about mr. cheapshot
a111: Logged on 2016-04-21 12:43 asciilifeform: 'Based on
the information I have available
to me, it appears
that
the MIT ChainAnchor Project is in part an attempt
to get Bitcoin users
to register
their real world identities and associate
their
transactions with
those identities. Initially
this would be on an opt-in basis, however it appears
that ChainAnchor has a longer-term plan
to bribe and coerce miners into only mining
transactions from registered users, eventually prohibitin
a111: Logged on 2016-04-29 14:05 mircea_popescu: i'll spend a
thousand
to ddos incapsula off
the internet before i spend a dollar for such bullshit.
jurov: what? email behaves
the same way. once you're on blacklist, servers mostly won't bother
to inform you
mircea_popescu: i'll spend a
thousand
to ddos incapsula off
the internet before i spend a dollar for such bullshit.
☟︎ jurov: like, my IP got banned by incapsula (some cloudflare ilk) for no discernible reason and all sites
that use it just blackhole me. even "pay here" screen would be better
than
this.
mircea_popescu: i shall now retire
to meditate upon
this most unexpected development.
mircea_popescu: like,
to guy who fucked lion, lion is same animal. kids at zoo or zamibia irrespective.
mircea_popescu: not a matter of "to". i fucked her.
this means i rearranged its essential oils with my penis.
mircea_popescu: look : i fucked money, she begged me
to stay so she'll cook me breakfast.
mircea_popescu: billions of seemingly normal humans, entirely hollow husks filled with piss, all shambling in
the EXACT same direction of
the same mecca.
mircea_popescu: ok, i understand
the part where in order
to participate in
the bizarro cult of whatever
the fuck you gotta abandon any possibility of independent
thought, even in principle, and preferablty before puberty. fine.
scalpl: mircea_popescu: how much noise may i make in
the channel while voiced?
scalpl: i'll enjoy
this more if people actually start shorting, or longing, or whatevering,
this nonexistent fifth element
adlai: sadly my cost basis is already pessimal due
to abysmal
timing of buying an ethercent
to play with before vitalik pooped
adlai: although
they assured me
that my coupla bitcents were safe
there, seeing as
they're all "investing" double-digit btc in swaps
adlai: it's already well along
the well
trod path -
the SCIA has already reported withdrawal difficulties
adlai: scalpl, having enjoyed mircea_popescu's options emporium during
the dying
throes of its public
trade, will henceforth enjoy
the dying
throes of vitalik_buterin's nonsense polonium. more news once it actually loses money.
adlai: you don't know
the half of it, just
the other day my ptsdogenic fund paid for my university catharsis
mircea_popescu: i guess i'm like
the only english speaker
that never indulged in
the chem weird ?
BingoBoingo: trinque:
That's how hamplanets feel all
the
time
trinque: BingoBoingo │ It's like seroqel, induces beetus << seroquel is nasty shit; a quack gave me
that for a misdiagnosed vitamin d deficiency about a decade ago
adlai waits for
the State of April address
mod6: shinohai: if you wanna
test something ^
adlai had
the gall
to ask for pharmaceutical cannabidiol... "maybe next year. right now you need zyprexa!!!1!1!"
adlai has discovered
that staying up all night sufficiently counteracts
the boringness. vox resumica ca 30th hour, so s'all good, man!
adlai: sometimes meat-people prefer
to hear calming babble.
this makes me "gentle meek and mild" (tm)
adlai: tl;dl: atypical (aka 'modern', as in "we don't yet have
the faintest clue ~why~
this one does") antipsychotic (aka 'disabilify'), perscribed for
telling people
too much
truth, of
the paranoid flavor
mircea_popescu looks at
the local pharma experts
to explain what
that one does.
adlai is on 5mg olanzapine, in case anybody is curious... 0/10 do not recommend,
taken only
to placate concerned folk
ben_vulpes: ;;later
tell felipelalli you have good
taste what can i say
mircea_popescu: a mechanism described by clinicians since close
to
two centuries ago, but who
the hell cares amirite.
mircea_popescu: and by
this fundamental act of nominalistic equivalency,
the insanity preserves itself.
mircea_popescu: so she's more
than happy
to
THINK she's a
terrorist, all
the more as she isn't even close.
mircea_popescu: but because, in
the naive girly's imagination,
there's no difference between
that FAILED act of liberation and
the genuine article. she after all never succeeded.
