mircea_popescu: they get culturally absorbed.
the price is complete and
total loss of identity.
mircea_popescu: this is important.
the defeated
tribe does not get
to live on
through "scanning".
mircea_popescu: i'm not scanning fucking accra idols, either. i piss on
them instead.
they make fine urinals, for a very good reason.
mircea_popescu: unless
they come back out from
the graves and make books matter again,
they get burried with
them.
mircea_popescu: they lost. i didn't
tell
them
to lose.
they did it all on
their own.
mircea_popescu: either retell
the books you care about or let
them die.
mircea_popescu: same exact fucking
thing with
the books :
they belong
to a defeated people.
mircea_popescu: ie,
there, "it's not
the job of
the state
to protect
the cultural patrimony OF INDIVIDUALS and
their clans ; if
those individuals and clans are so degenerate, bankrupt and chlorotioc as
to no longer be able
to protect
their heritage, let
the worms havce it. no, not even for comunist metaphisics ; no,
the property of x isn't "ours", no x's history isn't "ours". let
them uphold it or let it die.

the first place.
assbot: Logged on 10-11-2015 15:51:29; asciilifeform: 2) NOBODY ought
to have
to do
this
twice
mircea_popescu: not "technically" and not "desperate".
the word is "in yo' face, foos!" and "you are poor for a reason, and
that reason is you suck."
mircea_popescu: the consequences of
the derps "revolutionizing"
things are always
this one and
the same.
☟︎ assbot: Logged on 10-11-2015 15:29:16; punkman: "A wealthy, elderly man, for example, could
technically marry
the father of his daughter’s children.
This would enable an estate of any size
to pass
tax-free into
the next generation on
the older man’s death. After his elderly “husband” had died, of course,
the younger man would be free
to marry
the daughter, with
the estate
thus secured intact."

thoroughly convinced
that KickStarter is nothing more
than a platform for clueless derps
to make money on even more clueless derps
mircea_popescu: see, libtard camp falling over itself on
the score of "who shall profit from
this event".
BingoBoingo: The j-school's building is probably in
the best location on campus
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> lmao,
the media is "a mizzou institution" ? << "Top Journalism School"(TM)(R)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but you understand how every urgency is
the result of bad design, right ?
assbot: Logged on 10-11-2015 22:09:41; mircea_popescu: ok, so via plane you get
there faster. whatever. what if you're not
the sort of infantile imbecile
that has
to get places fast ?
mircea_popescu: "In a
truly weird
turn,
the Mizzou story now seems
to have rotated into a battle between activists and another Mizzou institution:
the media."
mircea_popescu: sure. but on
the speed/size continuum all choices are arbitrary. you don't don a spacesuit
to be shot
to new york.
mircea_popescu: what if what's important is
to get
there with
three women and a library in woprking order, while having your evening port in comfort ?
mircea_popescu: ok, so via plane you get
there faster. whatever. what if you're not
the sort of infantile imbecile
that has
to get places fast ?
☟︎ BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> again
those
tend
to be findable in clean scan ALREADY << But yes, reason
these are available in clean scan is exactly not fancy "book scannzors" but likely sensible people who know
to lop
the spine off and just do
the sheetfed
thing.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> and otherwise you're nuking something worth 300-500 usd << For
this you want a sewn hardcover
to unsew, or a page flipping monkey
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: generally,
the books for which
this option is attractive are ~already~ on warez << Sure
thestringpuller: BingoBoingo:
that's pretty ingenius. going
to
tell people
that next
time someone asks me how
to "scan a book"
BingoBoingo: <jurov> btw, bitmonero is going
to hardfork,
too << Up
to
twice a year
BingoBoingo: Also for
that purpose get
the
trade paperback of
the book.
BingoBoingo: <copypaste> I
thought it had all
the moving parts of a pro one; automatic page
turning and so on << Faster still is cutting
the spine off of book and using sheet fed scanner
funkenstein_: maybe not exactly
the same but appears
to also be related
to dynamic linking
to whatever happens
to be
there in openSSL
jurov: btw, bitmonero is going
to hardfork,
too
mircea_popescu: not yet old enough
to own his own goat, something pashtun kid passed with flying colors age 11. but hey, maybe "we" "need"
to spend more on "education". clearly it's been doing wonders for
them.)
mircea_popescu: (the above is, incidentally,
the whole reason and rationale of
the diamond ring, and
the fact
this point is never made in oh-so-edgy and libertarded discussions of
the habit plainly indicates for me just how much of women do
the incels in question understand, and what miserable family heads
they;'d make.
mircea_popescu: anyway,
the 2nd add is very well done, i wouldn't negrate
the author
mircea_popescu: which, in
the kind of
the sort of woman
that doesn't even own her own suit, is precisely how it goes. "real me = motherhood" or some bs.
mircea_popescu: "these people don't even know me! IT MUST BE FOR
THE REAL ME"
mircea_popescu: "he doesn't love me, he just likes my
tits, doesn't count."
mircea_popescu: you don't see how
the charity aspect actually strengthens it ?
mircea_popescu: it's
there in mythology as well, for
the 50% of
the heroic population
that's battling cunted demons in
their head.
mircea_popescu: so, give her
this supervaluable unique important
trinket
that can focus
the love and good will of
the community for her.
mircea_popescu: it's not a practical matter. it's
that if you give a woman a
token she can fix her grip on, she'll be less anxious and more confident

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform lol, recall
the indian kid ? with an idea ? for an app ?
mircea_popescu: who
the hell is she ? i have
this unshakable impression of knowing
the girl
mircea_popescu: i wonder what
the libtards will do when
they discover
the machines actually like
their enemies much better
than
them
thestringpuller: today i learned
that mircea_popescu listens
to destiny's child
