mircea_popescu: Namworld ahahah i think that's a keeper :)
mircea_popescu: so you know... stop misrepresenting the swastika as something bad just to serve your need to scapegoat imagery.
mircea_popescu: "Don’t depict the Magen David (Star of David) as an equivalent to the Nazi swastika. The Magen David represents all Jews—not just Israelis, not just people who are violent against Palestinians, ALL JEWS. When you do this, you are painting all Jews as violent, genocidal racists. DON’T." << and for that matter, the swastika represented all germans, not just the ones involved in homicide.
mircea_popescu: Namworld got a hole in your roof ?
mircea_popescu: appointing yourself the judge of all fucking creation is the point of life.
mircea_popescu: "Don’t call Jews you agree with “the good Jews.” Imposing your values on another group is not okay. Tokenizing is not okay. Appointing yourself the judge of what other groups can or should believe is not okay." << omfg. this is about as offensive as it gets.
mircea_popescu: Pierre_Rochard i originally thought it's a highschool/municipal sort of stadium for some reason.
mircea_popescu: ima end up persecuting fucking jews as the initiators of this "vocal minority trying to opress majority" meme.

mircea_popescu: thanks to all the inflation, they're safe : they didn't have that much to spend anyway. i doubt anything under 1bn even registers anymore, especially after the great successes of govt contractors in the mideast.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo this is starting to look so much like classic doctom bubble burnage...
mircea_popescu: this is the package maintainer's path to divinity : prevent all the f-students, masquerading as women-interest, "general public" interest etfuckingc from breaking math.

mircea_popescu: the day false evaluates to true, you're nine feet tall
mircea_popescu: why not ?
mircea_popescu: so, i can argue that yes, it is just as readily inferred as anything else.
mircea_popescu: if it were, we could build it.
mircea_popescu: but feynman's hypothetical is not wholly self-contained.
mircea_popescu: but it does mean that IF it were to exist, we can't say anything about what it can't do./
mircea_popescu: the rules as they are preclude its existence. that may not mean it can't exist,
mircea_popescu: and you know this how ?

mircea_popescu: fucking lexington is still a joke, and you're going to be a joke for going there. not just in my eyes, which whatever, who cares, but in your own 60yo eyes. and that burns.
mircea_popescu: and even if parents would much prefer their 17 yo rebelious teenager goes to the flaming man instead of the burning man, and even if they give the car with a full tank of gasoline and two small bottles of ginger ale for the former and punish the latter,
mircea_popescu: it's still shit, in the manner the local fair in lexington, kentucky, even if called "the flaming man", is still a very poor approximation of the actual burning man.
mircea_popescu: not from anyone else. and it doesn't even do such a good job of hiding it from you yourselves on a long enough timeline.
mircea_popescu: you've bought into the entire sm swag just like other generations have bought in the shit offered for their consumption. guess what : the fact that you all get it only hides the fact that it's shit from you yourselves,
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, dear intelligent people stuck on reddit&co - this is you : http://trilema.com/2014/i-wasnt-going-to-actually-post-this-but/

mircea_popescu: hence conspiracy theorists, forum investors etc.
mircea_popescu: the latter is easier to disprove, but the former easily sticks with people, who then form the spurious belief that everything is systematic
mircea_popescu: which is why the warning came to be on financial products, that "past performance is no indication of future success". the fortune teller makes two spurious claims, one that his arbitrariety is systematic, the other that he has a good historical record.

mircea_popescu: got*
mircea_popescu: but anyway. the 2012 peg in the eye of the beast has been holding out splendidly well. they're trying to enact this difference between game currencies and bitcoin, and who knows, maybe it'll work. who;s to say that's the last peg trilema go.
mircea_popescu: which is why the 100% conviction-through-plea-bargain system is so important.
mircea_popescu: decimation anyway, one doesn't "demonstrate". one claims, and prays nobody calls the bluff.
mircea_popescu: that's why regulation is taking over legislation as a normative process.
