pete_dushenski: aha. i attended french immersion
through
to grade 5, which really isn't much, but my mother also grew up on montreal and we spoke a bit of french at home. i've also visited montreal at least once a year since i was born, so i've always had a bit of a refresher when out in public. lastly, i joined a french-catholic choir last year and
they speak and write in french exclusively.
brg444: I was always curious, where did you pick up
this french from?
brg444: btw pete_dushenski was reading your last article on contravex. great stuff as usual but noticed a
typo, if you care: 2nd "exclusivity" should be "exclusive"?
brg444: tbf I'm certainly not complaining, last winter was around coldest on record so can't say I'm
too anxious
to revisit
this
BingoBoingo: kelvin for
the next few hundred
thousand years is
too outlier
to
troll people by using it
to describe weather
BingoBoingo a fan of using all
the
temperature scales without specifying
the scale, kelvin exempt.
pete_dushenski: but edmonton just had its first snow
this week. bizarrely
tardy.
pete_dushenski: brg444: wtf get your fahrenheit outta here. unless quebec
turned into bagdad since i last visited !
BingoBoingo: Monday we had some snowflakes here.
Today it was nearly 70.
Typical weather for
this region.
brg444: strange
thing
this "global warming" ^^
brg444: not an inch of snow anywhere
too
brg444: well
temperature
today was in
the 50s so can't really call it winter yet
pete_dushenski: brg444: well how's winter been
treating you
thus far ?
mircea_popescu: gotta have
the reddit spambots,
the cloudflare anal deflower and
the disqus comment washing process.
pete_dushenski: tila
tequila went joo
then lizard-nazi shortly
thereafter. definitely corky.
mircea_popescu: and also
that some idiot site on
the net doesn't have a functional comment box
mircea_popescu: "She could be mentally ill, or she may just be
the ultimate
troll, but either way,
Tila's latest
Twitter rant might be one of
the great social media meltdowns of all
time:"
BingoBoingo: Yeah, but any news is good news for
the cause.

ben_vulpes: "We will deliver
the first batch of
Tixies early 2016 with dedicated support."
jurov: "Tixie’s display has four settings; it checks
the current price of Bitcoin, shows
two account balances,
time, and local
temperature."
ben_vulpes is almost entirely insulated from
the race wars
pete_dushenski: "mexicanos supremos" sounds like
the next
taco bell special dish. "con queso!"
ben_vulpes: also a hilarious
thing, "mexican supremacists"
pete_dushenski: white men obviously put chico up
to
the
task. obviously.
ben_vulpes: propaganda dept does not have
their shit
together
BashCo: thanks jurov. I haven't been active here. haven't
taken
the
time
to get involved.
mircea_popescu: "alfdog
the cat" could be a decent comic. it's about a dog who identifies as a cat.
BingoBoingo: You aren't going
to
take naked girls
to show
them how it is done?
mircea_popescu: "cultura de la violacion : el problema es colectivo la solucion
tambien"

BingoBoingo: <thestringpuller> BingoBoingo:
this would make a great scene for alfdog
the movie << I kinda
though alf identified more as a cat.
BingoBoingo: <PeterL> If you pull up
the source of a qntra page, it's about 150 lines. Yesterday I was on another news site,
the source was over 4000 lines long. I am calling scam, qntra is cheating us on
the lines per page! << It used
to be more until recently.
thestringpuller: but
then fade
to black. And you have shot of duffelbag unzipping from inside
thestringpuller: collapse happens, and alf is shoved into duffelbag and audience is
thinking "Oh no
the gasenwagen got him!"
thestringpuller: BingoBoingo:
this would make a great scene for alfdog
the movie
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> back
to my original point, i don't see any reason why folks like me will fare any better under
this collapse
than
they did under sovcollapse << /me imagines in
the future alf getting kidnapped in duffel bag...
then delivered
to a hardware #b-a because has come
to expect
thestringpuller: Fiat VCs are really suffering from
the problem of
too much money.
mircea_popescu: more of
the same and less of everything,
the socialist-democrat platform everywhere¶ siempre!
mircea_popescu: “My plan would make Wall Street banks, profitable corporations, millionaires and billionaires pay
their fair share of

to raise
taxes by $1
trillion and spend it on infrastructure, guarantee free
tuition at public colleges and universities, raise
the minimum wage, raise Social Securit
mircea_popescu: on
the apparently safe assumption
that nobody has anything
to say
to anybody anywya

pete_dushenski: ~$12/day buys you
top-notch domestic bodyguard in colombia. seems awfully reasonable.
pete_dushenski: "[mercs] stay largely because of
the money, receiving salaries ranging from $2,000
to $3,000 a month, compared with approximately $400 a month
they would make in Colombia.
Those
troops who deploy
to Yemen will receive an additional $1,000 per week"
mircea_popescu: fuck a number of DIFFERENT women ; do a number of DIFFERENT
things. eat variedly. die happily.
