mircea_popescu: are you kidding me, it's like... livresque already, specifically engineered to sound fearsome.
mircea_popescu: nicoleci, there's a lot of these schmucks, who "don't want to assume". shit's scary, what! imagine, it bleeds monthly and you don't die, it's always wet yet you don't rust, IT CREATED THE WORLD!!!
mircea_popescu: be it "religion" as the male activity, or whatever the fuck else.
a111: Logged on 2019-05-22 14:35 mp_en_viaje: he is the sort of guy who doesn't fuck a lot of women, doesn't speak a lot of languages, doesn't like reading things he doesn't know how to interpret and spends a lot of time fucking intricately with garbage.
mircea_popescu: cuntfear, produced as the reflection of the (young) female coy behaviour in the (socially isolated) male, is the basic, universal driver of all the idiotic subcultural behaviour. ☝︎☟︎
nicoleci: mircea_popescu, lol! well he dosent want to assume... now its more clear to me how he makes any money from his 'jane austen fan fiction'
a111: Logged on 2019-05-20 07:55 mp_en_viaje: they want to could have gotten laid.
mircea_popescu: but what he likes about it is the promise that perhaps sex isn't about sex after all, and thereby ye fearsome http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-20#1914729 might be had for cheaper by him ? please say he doesn't HAVE TO stick the member into the scary hole necessarily ? IT IS DANGEROUS!!! ☝︎
mircea_popescu: though i grant, "there's no anal" is an exceptionally crafty summary of the problem.
mircea_popescu: amusingly, the "debate" (between sex as a purely performative activity and "moral" sex) directly mirrors the older "purpose of literature" wank. it's a sure sign you're reading cvasi-literate morons when all their crap has a "clear moral tendency". which is actually the deep reason you don't like inane anglowank like jane austen, and ALSO why gay-in-denial us math grad / budapest "writer" does "like" it.
mircea_popescu: (for the needs of this discussion, ~all of the united states, excepting san fernando valley, some choice tinybits in san francisco, san diego, arizona and texas fall precisely under "ex-european colonies" heading)
mircea_popescu: cooption towards their preoccupations was already a clear sign of imminent reversion. after all, the savage finding a radio will first gaze in mindblown delight, then attempt to cure his warts with it, then go back to chasing squirrels. same here.
mircea_popescu: "fascinatingly threatening, so incomprehensible i can't even judge if the opinion i formed on it is meaningful"
mircea_popescu: thus pedestrian vomit like "pua" as well as reactive nonsense like "re-protestant/original xtianity", "straightedge" etcetera. they're all the ~same thing, epiphenomena among the inconsequential, and you'll readily notice the rlationship between peons' reaction to my showing up and these dudes reaction to porn as a cultural phenomenon.
mircea_popescu: the immigrant's experience of tearing, right, in the particular case of 1980s to 2000s immigration had a very strong sexual component that the poor fucks in question were eminently ill equipped to digest.
mircea_popescu: but in impoverished, rural, "traditional religion" communities, such as the european metropolitan ghettos / ex euro colonies producing their demographic support, it resulted in poorly expressed, highly tensed wank.
mircea_popescu: certainly. though the schmuck in question was never mainstream ; he's part of a specific outer cloud of wankers that never amounted to anything beyond sadness.

nicoleci: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-23#1915343 << so this is what you meant by reversion to the mean, Master? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: reads to me SO like "harem travel only, poorguys get bent"
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, egypt visa policy is the lulz of all time. afghanistanis, sudanese, yemeni and lebanese nationals can travel w/o visa, provided either >50 or <16 ; algerians, moroccans, tunisians if <14 ; chinese if got 5 star hotel reservation and $$$$$ (ie, 5 figure) in cash ; libya, if female, or else lives in tobruk ; jordan, if passport does not hold jordanian stamp on page 60 ; ☟︎
trinque: victoria nuland, that's so good.
BingoBoingo: In other lulz, Nuland denied a visa to Russia
asciilifeform: after that, wagner/cyanide
asciilifeform: turned into messianic cult, of sorts, in '16, and then 'messiah' wiped arse with'em
mircea_popescu: something thereabouts. end of 1 start of 2
asciilifeform: is the period most of'em started in, iirc
asciilifeform: sorta dissipated, afaik, after trump crowned but not resulted in mega-revolutions
asciilifeform: there usedto be a whole 'www ring' of folx like that
mircea_popescu: he wrote this peculiarly elliot-like tedious piece abut fucking a 17yo
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: dunno whether that d00d even had a 'scheme'. was generic loud redditus iirc
BingoBoingo: The evidence bears that out
a111: Logged on 2019-05-23 16:35 BingoBoingo: This problem seems to be why every popular effort at making a political right ends up turning into another socialist left
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-23#1915348 << every popular effort to anything turns to shit. because it has to, because populace == shit. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: His audience is/was interesting for being the sort of alt-right which, had chance taken them saner... could have been a recruiting ground.
mircea_popescu: come to think of it, whole "pua" "ecosystem" was sad/lulzy porn derivative work, about as consequential as "gonzo porn" or w/e.
BingoBoingo: The shrooms seem to have influence the speed of the switch
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: It is looking so. The switch is only a few hours old, but...
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo, so basically, moving into the switch phase of his bait and switch scheme ? didn't work for that other cocksucker, either.
mircea_popescu: "NEW RULES: Casual sex and hooking up can no longer be discussed on the forum" roflmao. ☟︎
asciilifeform: if not megaseekrit, where approx is 'here' ? ( suburbs of timis ? )
mircea_popescu: copper, for one thing.
mircea_popescu: imo this one is pretty good.
mircea_popescu: anyway, nothing as structured as al lthat. doing some travelling is all.
asciilifeform recalls 1 time when he took entire car trunk's worth of cpuvendor-included heatsinks to scrapyard
mircea_popescu: it came with the thing, i just bought the fx black edition
asciilifeform: yea dunno why no one does ( i dun buy the lamps, wtf, i have cork-lined steel chassis , where is the lamp to light )
mircea_popescu: rather than just dumbly cycle the rainbow
mircea_popescu: yes. they could have made the lamp color BY FAN STEP
asciilifeform: so was speaking of the lamp
mircea_popescu: the fan ? no, they're 4pin
mircea_popescu: why the fuck would anyone do this!
mircea_popescu: HOWEVER, idiots didn't think to make it temp related. just simple cycler
mircea_popescu: in other sads : amd fx proc has one helluva hea tsink. it even includes a cool light rim around the outside
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: thinking of doing the summer-in-europistan/winter-in-americas thing ?
mircea_popescu: lemme confirm all those mp_en_viaje was really me
mircea_popescu: hello all, from the european castle mp! ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2019-05-23 16:31 asciilifeform: did danielpbarron lift this fella's login or wat.
danielpbarron: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-23#1915345 << not me. the guy's brand of false christianity forbids polygyny, apparently ☝︎
BingoBoingo: ^ USG Pantsuits defeated on their home turf
asciilifeform: at 1 time asciilifeform worked in 'cpu-bound' protein modeling racket and salivated over 'possibility of qc' along with 9000 other chumps etc
BingoBoingo: Plenty of things I used to find "cool" or "interesting" that I can't tolerate anymore
asciilifeform: iirc some time in past coupla yrs he ended up moving to adlaistan and married.
asciilifeform: today i can't stomach, even the older ones, barfalicious shilling for 'd-wave' co. etc.
asciilifeform: fella used to wite ~readable maffs pieces on occasion.
asciilifeform: lulzily, for some yrs i occasionally read his www, and all that time thought it was named for some obscure algo ( y'know, how there is 'ant-colony optimization', variant on simulated annealing with multiple threads and 'pheromone trails' , imagined there is perhaps also a 'shtetl optimization'... )
asciilifeform: ( he for many years was unable to park his cock, and wrote about how he imagined that in his ancestral j00 village he could have been 'issued wife' and etc. )
a111: Logged on 2019-05-23 16:38 asciilifeform did not read at length the 'red pill' people, but recalls that they had distinct streak of 'nostalgia' for a quasi-mythical past when 'would be issued a wife by village' etc
asciilifeform: in re http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-23#1915351 , remembered infamous example : 'quantum comp' propagandist s. aaronson at one point admitted that he named his www , 'shtetl-optimized' for this ☝︎
asciilifeform: 'i was all fuckedup on drugs; but then i found jizzus; nao i'm all fucked up on jizzus; but that's ok, i'm taking drugs for it'(tm)(r)(al schwartz)
BingoBoingo wonders how much of the turn involves shrooms and psychadelics turning into a fad among that set of kids
BingoBoingo: My impression is that growing up in a land of insanity they ended up searching for sanity and ended up wandering into a different insanity
asciilifeform did not read at length the 'red pill' people, but recalls that they had distinct streak of 'nostalgia' for a quasi-mythical past when 'would be issued a wife by village' etc ☟︎
BingoBoingo: Sure he does. He just lacks any anchor for comparison that isn't his prostate-nose
BingoBoingo: This problem seems to be why every popular effort at making a political right ends up turning into another socialist left ☟︎
asciilifeform: 'acute christianity of the cns' ...apparently
BingoBoingo: No idea, seems an organic turn.
asciilifeform: did danielpbarron lift this fella's login or wat. ☟︎

BingoBoingo: Then know the sticker prices on new motos
BingoBoingo: Sure, but no one think of computers as a known-price item here.
asciilifeform: pnoje is used as a comp substitute, neh, not transport
BingoBoingo: A computer isn't the price comparison point here. This is Uruguay, they compare to the price of a motocicleta.
asciilifeform: ( if you walk into their store, the actual price iirc aint even printed on the sticker; instead 'monthly' rent )
asciilifeform: crapple, incidentally, jacked up the price not so that rich idjits would buy, but so that poor idjits -- rent
asciilifeform: near as i can tell, all of the '4fig pnojes' are variations on this theme
asciilifeform: if to think about 'price ceiling', there is of course not a ceiling, even in 1990s there was somebody who sold gold-plated, diamond-encrusted motorola brickpnoje
BingoBoingo: Well, they gotta keep the old high end from becoming the mid-low end in two years
BingoBoingo: Just under 1400 USD seems to be where they top out with the P30
BingoBoingo: http://archive.is/bFJMj Apparently some of the iThings that don't sell go higher in price, but 4-figure USD prices
asciilifeform with great difficulty pictures anyone other than ameritards paying 4fig price for pnojeisms
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: canhaz link to item ?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Huawei sells pNohe models that dwarf Apple in price. The own the high end with a strong presence in the mid range market
a111: Logged on 2019-05-23 06:14 mp_en_viaje: that bank very much buy the us, if anyone wanted suchj.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-23#1915314 << for all i know, long ago already bought. reminds me of a fella i knew who compulsively bought old cars ( and garages, all over town, to put'em in, in which for them to rust... ) ☝︎
asciilifeform: ( could be -- disinfo. asciilifeform has not been to china, cannot confirm. )
asciilifeform: a la the old imperial civil service garb
asciilifeform: hrm i seem to even recall that 'retro' costume is nao in fashion there
a111: Logged on 2019-05-23 06:10 mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, that;s nonsense. huawei currnently owns the "smart"phone market. it's their own phone, it's better than the reich phone, etc.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-23#1915310 << certainly cheaper than crapple, who nao charges ~weight-in-gold for their brick. but afaik, both camps of 'smartpnoje wars' are of chinese iron with reich os. ☝︎
