liquidassets: and their wives despise them
liquidassets: They being the older
liquidassets: I think Birdman that it's a natural thing to want respect as you get older, especially FROM the younger. Because most younger are worthless anyway and they never got respect from their peers either
Birdman: Yes, as far as America goes this is common. The fat slob brainwashee's who arent worth a damn would like to be held in high regards.
liquidassets: It's a theme trinque see Caprica
Birdman: There is a difference between courtesy and respect, though. It might have been drilled into their heads that they deserve it, for some reason, and senses of entitlement are rampant.
trinque: do not take the circumstances under which you grew up as universal.
liquidassets: Which frustrates the older
liquidassets: Birdman and this is where I think there's an actual generational difference, the younger doesn't just automatically give it
Birdman: Some want respect for being alive longer than you, just dont give it where its not due.
liquidassets: But still, if you're an old, frustrated, white, male, American, who watches Fox News and considers yourself informed, and all the young cocks blah blah, back in my day, blah blah..
liquidassets: Maybe that's because I was/am
mircea_popescu: for all you know they're exactly right.
liquidassets: Previously my frustration has been with older men who think themselves a little too highly for my taste, have acquired the ability to navigate social circles/seem to have all the power, and see me as a punk kid
Birdman: Well to be fair if the food had been sitting out a few days..
mircea_popescu: so there you go.
liquidassets: I'd prefer to eat and not think of it as shit..?
mircea_popescu: by this reasoning food is "motly shit already" anyway. ☟︎
liquidassets: On the basis that they're already mostly all dead anyway
mircea_popescu: on that basis ?!
liquidassets: Don't care really, I'd be impressed. Looking around I'd usually prefer most of them to just die already ☟︎
mircea_popescu: there's the occasional 60yo. why do you care anyway ?
liquidassets: We are all so young. Is there anyone here over 40? just curious
mircea_popescu: (mostly because the skin is not designed to protect its insides from osmotic processes driven by outside chemicals)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform aha the later.
asciilifeform: what is soap even for if not to be a mildly basic detergent.
mircea_popescu: soviet soap (like cheap usian soap, for that matter) is a kind of detergent. this isn't what good soap is.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there is. bad ph.
mircea_popescu: but that doesn't make it a start-up.
asciilifeform: (ftr there was nothing detectably wrong with sov soap)
mircea_popescu: yes, americans are poor and getting poorer. yes the Ministry of Packing Cattle Tighther has a solution.
mircea_popescu: in the sense that soviet soap was a start-up. "hey, it's this or not wash. what dove ?"
asciilifeform: airbnb (and 'uber' etc) might fit both holes, in that they are gunning for an 'ebay' position - that of being 'the market'
mircea_popescu: the difference being that businesses happen at the tip of a large pushing force, such as the airbnb scam pushed by paul graham-madoff, or such as "green energy" scam pushed by president bahamas-madoff. to be a start-up is exactly opposite to this, you're alone.
mircea_popescu: g anything but begging you to take their money ? here's a simple rule of thumb : if your start-up is not in this position where someone somewhere perceives he can't afford NOT to pay you, it's not a start-up. it might be a business idea, perhaps, but it can not be a start-up.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, back to castrato issues : "Waiting for customers, waiting for customers to make a decision, hoping a customer will say yes, waiting for the customer to sign the check after saying yes is a very long process. During this time, your company has to pay for expenses, costs and salaries." <<< jesus christ these people. why the fuck would you think a start-up is even a business at all if those customers are doin
mircea_popescu: no. it's that a lot of [actual] rapists have uncomfortably large penises, but also the oversexed traits to go with them
asciilifeform: (as seen in one of the sherlock holmes tales)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: seems unsurprising, sorta like the scratches on the keyhole of a lock owned by a drunk
mircea_popescu: oh. as in fat what, fat deposits on the penis ?!
mircea_popescu: here's a fun fact : about half the actual rapes (not hurr durr i'm on social media and bored) require a fourchette stitch.
asciilifeform: strangely there are, afaik, no obese penii
funkenstein_: saw you mention the genetic hurr durr earlier today :D
mircea_popescu: i thought large penii were caused by big feet
mircea_popescu: "Intelligence is caused by big feet; obesity by genetics" lol ima end up reading this blog huh.
asciilifeform: (only a psychiatrist could possibly care, but there it is)
funkenstein_: liquidassets, if you have trouble finding any of the 10 books in the series let me know :)
mircea_popescu: so the shaman isn't ordering the clouds to cover the sun and sprout forth rain, but instead is commanding the crows to stop eating the cloud seeds so the clouds may spring forth etc ?
asciilifeform: who like, or at least were thought to like, faux contracts / 'partnerships' etc
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: incidentally a good bit of the 'startup' nonsense makes more sense when you realize that they weren't trying to get legit customers at all, but further chumps^H^H^H^H^Hinvestors
mircea_popescu: you know, the grub2 variety.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the goal in that line wouldn't be the same "make better code", just, find any holes.
mircea_popescu: here's a hint : if the woman's not willing to suck your cock to impress you on the first date, she's not gonna be willing to suck it three years in.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i see ~generating~ a tx as a job for a specially-crafted box running from ROM and powered down immediately after
mircea_popescu: "We granted a lot of discounts to get customers on board. For the sake of signing new and more cyclic contracts afterwards. The contracts never happened." luller.
liquidassets: Thanks funkenstein_ I tried to dpaste it. the youtube must be an abridged version
mircea_popescu: in fairness tho, that node never sent txn (this is in the plan, eventually, to have a sort of dust-sender just to see what it does to memory)
mircea_popescu: some of which aren't even permanent (ie, subtle sorts of bugs, that only leak 100kb every other six hours once maybe, sorta thing)
asciilifeform: i did narrow it down to tx
mircea_popescu: if we manage to cut three chains we'll cut out twelve to seventeen different leak sources sorta thing
asciilifeform: i'm quite certain of this.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i suspect that a lot of the leaks are chained
asciilifeform: full but not overflowing omg turds everywhere !111111
asciilifeform: unfortunately, the graph does not say very much - a node plugged into a slow pipe will look quite like the green chart
mod6: <+jurov> http://www.explo.yt/memgraph-fs8.png ;) << aha! ok, yeah, looks like you're on the trail of something there.
mod6: <+jurov> mod6 asciilifeform yes putting it together but it needs good writeup << awesome, thx.
mircea_popescu: jurov there's clearly something there, just, we aren't finding it is all.
mircea_popescu: funkenstein_ neat. he produced a dpaste too.
funkenstein_: 14:30:56 mircea_popescu: is there a transcript ? <-- just so happens there is http://frass.woodcoin.org/the-four-enemies-of-knowledge/
liquidassets: I like to think that I'm blowing her mind right now
mircea_popescu: perhaps this yields true in humans too.
mircea_popescu: liquidassets bitchiness in females is an unerring honest signal that the male they're paired with is short testosterone.
jurov: mod6 asciilifeform yes putting it together but it needs good writeup
liquidassets: so I disappointed her, because that's what she was
mircea_popescu: nobody ever does this intentionally.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you will notice this is a desperation play (or, conversely, the result of decay)
liquidassets: It's just a her now, a former. High maintenance, very hard to please..Constantly disappointed.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> might help if jurov actually posted his methods << yes, please do. you're doing good work, many thanks.
assbot: Logged on 18-12-2015 13:31:51; mircea_popescu: the same exact process used in "policing" the ghetto, at the taxpayer's expense but in the usg's own private benefit is also what the us military does abroad. the point isn't for iraq to functyion or not, the point is for there to not exist any gaddafi's. let the euros deal with the fallout, what, that's what the castrated suckers are there for anyway.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-12-2015#1346307 << this is brzezinski's controlled chaos (tm). but of course dates to the ancients. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: "but it will necessarily kill you eventually" "yeah well... not today, buster"
mircea_popescu: liquidassets what her is this ?
mircea_popescu: "hey, at least it's getting me morphine and all this attention"
mircea_popescu: in muich the same way cancer patient loves cancer
liquidassets: But exactly was my point with her. She wanted it 'just in the bedroom' and eventually it got to be, well, what's this thought that your life DOESN"T reflect it...
asciilifeform: in much the same way as a hunter loves deer
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i think the love and hate part are mixed in about even proportions
assbot: Logged on 18-12-2015 13:30:29; mircea_popescu: in this paradigm, it is not so important that there's mass theft or rape, just that there's no organized power behind it.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-12-2015#1346305 << the corollary of this is that usg luuuvvvs mass theft and rape SO LONG AS it is carried out by disorganized 'brownian motion' monkeys ☝︎
liquidassets: LOL did he say that?? If not I'd like to see THAT one
mircea_popescu: "Barcelona’s Mobile World Congress 2012: I remember seing nice pictures of nice cocktails and nice restaurants from the business developers; I remember seing lots of appointments with potential customers; I remember it ended up with no customer but a partnership; I still do not know the cost of the operation, even as a cofounder." awww.
mircea_popescu: morpheus : there is no bedroom.
liquidassets: And it really gets interesting when you move 'out of the bedroom' and into "real life"
mircea_popescu: "One of the failures was clearly the will to spend all the money rather than to spend it wisely. " << ehehehe.
liquidassets: Stubborn creatures but I cannot blame them...dealing with bullshit their entire lives
liquidassets: Wait,, searching for "No. Once a man gives in he is through"
liquidassets: Isn't that why you teach them though MP?
liquidassets: Not sure where I first found it/read it, it wasn't on the internet, but wasn't a book either...
mircea_popescu: minor exceptions, such as "No. Once a man gives in he is through." << not so for a woman.
liquidassets: The thing I linked?
