ben_vulpes: asciilifeform has yet
to march in an army so hungry it's drawing lots for
the pots apparently
ben_vulpes had
to beat emacs into supporting ruby
this week, company-mode served well
ben_vulpes: i'm also expecting he-who-knows-all-about-raising-children-without-ever-having-had-any
to chime in
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: well yes,
that was
the nucleating input
ben_vulpes: the whole SIDS
thing reeks of idiopathic "we don't know what's going on but here
try
these
things so
that you feel in control"
ben_vulpes: ;;later
tell pete_dushenski are you
taking
this "no infants sleeping on
their bellies"
thing seriously?
assbot: Logged on 13-12-2015 21:25:08; mircea_popescu: who
the fuck gets acquihired by "hootsuite"
whaack: ben_vulpes: Sure I'll
try.
whaack: BingoBoingo: At
the
time,
this amounted
to approximately .290 Bitcoins per student. With roughly 4,500 undergraduates,
this was MIT's way of showing
that
they were in a position
to easily let go of about 1,300 Bitcoins at
the
time. << I
think
the double "at
the
time" reads weird, but not
too big a deal.
whaack: BingoBoingo: looks great,
thanks
Bingoboingo: cool, just got some light
touches of editing so make sure
to read it.
BingoBoingo guesses he will have
to do another draft of
the Qntra style guide, "Bitcoin" gets capitalized.
mircea_popescu: the notion
that
teenager kid
that beat up some fatty in his class needs
therapy, but
this nutjob with sirens and perimeter fence does not strikes me as outright self-parodic.
punkman: "In fact, I was (and am) a GOLD STAR GAY ie a gay man who's never had sex with a woman" except all
these persons with vaginas
punkman: it's only bad if you "hope nobody
thinks I'm gay"
punkman: so
there's a Mr Sleeve in
the neighborhood, and apparently he makes shirts
punkman: not yet at least, not really opposed
to gmo food in principle
punkman: asciilifeform: [...] << makes EXACTLY
the same amount of sense as
the 'oh noez gmo!111'
thing. << dunno, I'd rather not eat DowDuPont for breakfast

this is why dudes hang out with bitches (hey, she might not be pliable
to me, but she sure as fuck ain't pliable
to anyone else - so
that's 50%. spreading, works.)
mircea_popescu: fractal reality, it really doesn't have
that many
tropes.
mircea_popescu: this is why anal sex being painful
to
teh woman is actually
THE REASON it's practiced and so on

to me, but she sure as fuck ain't pliable
to anyone else - so

☟︎ mircea_popescu: note how
this also happens
to be exactly
the male expectations of females, generally. "she should be pliable
to no one but me", which
then gets repackaged in weird
things like madonna/whore compelx by sick societies, which is how "slut" works :
to indicate
that she's exactly
the antiwoman (ie, pliable
to all but me) and so on and so forth.
mircea_popescu: and so... we industriously retrain
their youth. it's slow and unrewarding, but
then again what else is
the human condition, idem since forever.
mircea_popescu: what else is
the job of human industry since forever, but
to separate
the wires.
mircea_popescu: they're drastically incapable of making
themselves useful.
mircea_popescu: and it's a miserable state of affairs, when i say argentines are
too dumb
to live i mean exactly
this :
mircea_popescu: or
to bring
the captive mouse back into all of
this, whether it succeeds or not at chewing its way
through plain steel and glass, and whether it has any chance at succeeding or not aren't considerations. it simply lacks any capacity of being my puppet, and for
this reason it can't be, and
that's
that.
mircea_popescu: that red indians wanted
to sit around and smoke peace pipe, whereby
these guys wanted
to rape your wife.
mircea_popescu: course, not
the same as greece's
two, but nevertheless.
mircea_popescu: and i would know, because
this is what romania's been doing for about a millenium.
mircea_popescu: this is
the relationship of actual active
tribes with soi-dissant empires.
mircea_popescu: but,
to be perfectly clear,
the man who goes
to work hard so he can buy a diamond ring so he can "muppet" a woman into staying put for sex is not some sort of mastermind.
mircea_popescu: and im not sure what
the diff between m and p is here.
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, in afghanistan
the only NOT puppets were
the afghanis.
mircea_popescu: the fallacy here is
that you wish
to attribute action
to "ownership" because
this is a fundamental pillar of your otherwise broken "action is not
the measure of phenomena". if only it were possible
that
the mujahedeen were "a puppet"
then so many
things you wish
to be
true would also perhaps be attainable.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform dawg get
the hell out with
this "everything is an arm of
the meta-hittite empire"

this very strange stupid number games
thing. "they've commited a billion
they'd never pay and i'll do
things i'm never actually doing". мы делаем вид что работаем а государство делает вид что платит нам зарплату for
the new soviet generation.

assbot: Logged on 13-12-2015 13:21:05; mircea_popescu: but hey, don't look at
the paris attack and say "lol, i guess we can dismantle all us secret services". say something else! anything else! how about "o noers, should be giving
the slow, inept macfhine more $$$!"

thing
they're remembered for is
their manner of living,
they're a byword for hypocrisy and a delusional magical belief in empty ritual and naming
things.
mircea_popescu: and as
the de-turdification process continue, expect more and more of
these "highly principled" shitheads crawling out of
the woodwork. because
this is what ethics means
to
the present crop of retarded kids, it's just a word, and it ain't got jack shit
to do with what one does. just as long as
the pharisee does his ablutions right all's good.
mircea_popescu: tuff you build upon has
the consistency of smoke and
the life expectancy of... well, I was going
to say ephemerides, but I guess we could just as well say Pieter Wuille.", because what mp says goes.
mircea_popescu: and seriously, see
the part where
the mp of
this space says "This can not be emphasized enough : you can not be building any
type of business on any sort of Gavinism, because
