the outside is are different matters.
mircea_popescu: anyway, im not gonna waste
the night hunting
this, instead, i

translate rabinul si oaia.
assbot: Logged on 14-11-2015 03:30:32; asciilifeform: pretty much everything with a public face and ANY 'hr
types' is - by definition - salt mine.
mircea_popescu: jesus fuck, we're digging in
the past decades like it's postgraduade class in etruscan art.
mircea_popescu: once dead it becomes apparent, but
to no further use
to him
mircea_popescu: the principal problem of man, as an alive, in vivo beast, is
that he has no fucking idea.
assbot: Logged on 14-11-2015 05:10:37; mircea_popescu:
the "defectors"
that didn't get killed (seriously, who
the fuck is going
to shoot ricin at you for leaving
the us ?) mostly picked up
trash. if lucky, ran cabs.
mircea_popescu: yeah, because
they're
the same age, and
the same deffective minds.
mircea_popescu: fancy
that!
that's exactly what is ~going
to~ happen!
the whole notion! will be lost!
mircea_popescu: "If Republicans continue
to moan about "liberal bias" and "losing
the culture wars" without mustering
the courage
to do something about it – à la Ben Carson's stoppage of funding or Glenn Reynolds's abolition of aristocratic loopholes for Ivy League
tithing –
then
the whole notion of higher education is going
to be lost."
☟︎ mircea_popescu: sounds a lot like
taking
the governor of missouri as some sort of relevant political force.
mircea_popescu: i personaly suspect
the only reason we even know
the name of
that B actor in
the nazi state is
that he was
the first/only/most coherent man
the brits could find in uniform.
mircea_popescu: the acquarium is entirely in your head, is
the problem.
mircea_popescu: "in
this set of one bottle all
things are a bottle! also in speer's case!"
mircea_popescu: "in any set of one bottle all
the
things are a bottle!"
mircea_popescu: do you do a lot of
this begging
the question and implying
the conclusions business ?
mircea_popescu: "from my
tower built out of old fishwraps atop slightly fresher fishwraps,
the chinese freedom of navigation exercises all around japan are entirely invisible"
☟︎ mircea_popescu: fucking united states of kermit are an "economic actor" now, fancy
that. what do
they act,
the chinese handpuppet ?
assbot: Logged on 14-11-2015 03:17:59; asciilifeform: all i can say is
that usg is
the only major economic actor remaining, or at least in so far as is visible from my dismal
tower
mircea_popescu: jesus
the delusion is strong with
this one, he goes
to sleep, comes back with it whole.
assbot: Logged on 14-11-2015 03:16:17; asciilifeform: if it's at supplying clean water out of
the
tap - it sorta works
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo
the problem with
this is
that
the javascript "coder" without an eye and with
two amputated legs will sit on an old skateboard and
try
to get rentacoder javascript work
to pay his hospital bills.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: re:nailbat, I interpreted
that as when you
take your physical
trip
to
the US
to play around in New Reno at some point in
the future
mircea_popescu:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-11-2015#1323630 << you need a very weird
thought process
to at
the same
time discount all
the NUMEROUS idiots with nail marks all over
the face and somehow hallucinate some imaginary protection for
the remainder
through a concerted, name-able agency. really, usg protected all
the vermin i didn't yet get
to ?
☝︎ mircea_popescu: albert who ? speer,
the nazi architect ? looky here : at
the
time
the action was coherent
there was no conflict. by
the
time
there was conflict coherent action was practically absent. what have you done here, averaged over
two decades ?
mircea_popescu: anyway. real men don't need more
than what
they carry with
themselves.
that's what fucking distinguishes
them from women.
mircea_popescu: so she sits around with idiots
that don't know how
to wash properly (no,
they don't OPT
to not wash properly,
they simply don't know how
to do it,
through parental neglect) and cuts class.
mircea_popescu: all
the cunning of a pubescent female,
trying
to get what it perceives it can't have while discounting with both hands what's easy
to get.
mircea_popescu: do you know what informs
their position, in all cases,
then as now ?
the same
thing :
they
thought it's good because it seemed impopssible. you
tihnk it's bad because it seems easy.
that's
the whole charade.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: and
the rats are ALWAYS imbecile.
take you, for instqance : you imagine
the outside "is bad".
take
them, for instance.
they imagined
the outside "is good". BOTH entirely, utterly and completely wrong, on an objective basis. but objective has absolutely nothing
to do with it.
mircea_popescu: what
the rats in
the burning hole imagine
the outside is, and what
the outside is are different matters.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: the "defectors"
that didn't get killed (seriously, who
the fuck is going
to shoot ricin at you for leaving
the us ?) mostly picked up
trash. if lucky, ran cabs.
☟︎ assbot: Logged on 14-11-2015 03:10:49; asciilifeform: su had a ready warm place for all
the competent folks
to ~defect~ (DEFECT, not flee like rats and into pederasty, but fucking defect)
to
mircea_popescu: then a coupla years later went into an epidemy of doing it, because hey,
the sure mark of
the insecure faggot is pretending superiority while attempting immitation.
mircea_popescu: that was a lulzdefacement on
trilema years ago.
the "romanian blogging community" ie a few dozen derps with shitty jobs in media was rather indignant
that o noes, such desperation,
to mis en scene your own defacement!!
assbot: Logged on 14-11-2015 03:02:58; asciilifeform: i'm actually kind surprised
that none of
these dns records suddenly decided
to point
to dhs 'confiscated!1111' page, quite yet
phf: mircea_popescu: what's
the new registrar? is it less retarded
then namecheap?
danielpbarron: that show's other host is antonopolous,
the guy
that you got kicked off of
twatter for
threatening
to kill
assbot: Logged on 13-11-2015 22:25:14; pete_dushenski: i'm proposing
that
they come here and, if
they so desire, have a voice actor play
the role of interviewee for
the program
assbot: Logged on 13-11-2015 21:46:32; pete_dushenski: said podcast, "let's
talk bitcoin" may also be interested in
talking
to BingoBoingo and asciilifeform regarding
their respective projects.
mircea_popescu: in other news,
the new registrar does not actually handle .ws or .bz apparently. so i got a bunch of other domains for proxies, whatevs.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> asciilifeform no way
this works on ie6. vendor prolly
tested it on latest chrome . << In
the last year and a half
this seems
to become "OMG NEW BEST PRAKATIZ"
phf: i bought phantasmagoria of a stand in VDNKh back when
the place was basically a giant electronics store, mixed with retrofuturist curio (holographic art exhibition! plasma globes!). it was a, heavily discounted, non-pirated version, but it
took me forever
to save up
phf: i
think gabriel knight was also quite beefy..
phf: (and
there are stats somewhere on
thinkwiki)
phf: i've been
trying
to
track it down for a while now, was curious if you've had a personal experience with one. i suspect
there are very few actual units around,
though ebay has a steady supply of replacement parts
