to admit where I come from. But if people knew about my children's background, it might be difficult for
them." <<
That cognitive dissonance
punkman: there were a couple local ebay-clones here
that passed all
their data
to
the
taxman. "oh you sold 6 old phones
this year? and what did you not have
time
to incorporate and register for VAT?"

☟︎ punkman: other
than wot-produced warez, would sure be nice
to
trade lists of signatures on warez
punkman: (actually a
thing if anyone's not familiar with it)
punkman: and how do you
trade bookz with a lot of people? you go
to bookzz dot org
punkman: well I don't know anyone
that scans books or rips movies
punkman: enjoyed
the quality while it lasted, if only
they did more old movies

to eat
these sausages ?
trinque: yep, I
think asciilifeform has it,
that it'd be something
to build around gossipd

to me
that log dumps could be managed in V with
those in L1 adding
their seal if
they find no significant difference with

assbot: Logged on 08-11-2015 01:12:01; mircea_popescu: violence per se is uneducative,
there's all sorts of psychic defences available
to
the cow. however, once violence is unrecourse-able, it DOES become educative.
mircea_popescu: th injury-- since everything is possible, why aren't you enjoying everything?--
the personality structure becomes overwhelmingly defensive. "If I were Kim Kardashian,
then I would be able
to do X!" is NOT envy, flip it over and read
the redacted obverse: "Only Kim Kardsahians can do X --
therefore it's not my fault
that I can't!"
mircea_popescu: But
this critique is backwards, it assumes
the magazine is
trying
to
trick its audience,
this is wrong,
the audience is using
the magazine
to
trick itself.
The audience wants
this distance. It wants heroes, celebrities, people with power-- it wants an upper class-- and it wants
them inaccessible. Envy? No,
that's advertising,
this is
the "news."
This is what happens when a whole generation's narcissism is
threatened wi
mircea_popescu: Of course
the easy critique
to make, and even
this one Hess was not allowed
to formulate, is
that in
this way
The Economist conveys
the impression
that it has personal access
to
the levers of power,
the way Us Weekly recasts publicists as "sources close
to Kim Kardashian", shrinking
the gap between
the magazine and
the sources and artificially widening
the distance between Kardashian and us. She becomes more important
mircea_popescu: kinda why
the one
thing
the burgeois can't stand is being laughed at,
to connect
that old point.
mircea_popescu: also why it's never a stable solution, keps needing more and more. gotta have aml , because otherwise
there IS something
they can do and
the whole charade collapses.
mircea_popescu: anyway,
the entire point of
the "justice system" ie, imposition of a certain ideology over willing or unwilling objects, is not "you will get hurt" but "there is NOTHING you can do".
mircea_popescu: trinque generally,
the victors have better
things
to do.
the defeated is only important in his own system,
to himself.
that's how he got fucked in
the first place, after all.

theoretical underpinnings.
mircea_popescu: trinque
tlp loved
that show. iirc
the next episode was
the one with
the forced bicycling.
mircea_popescu: who
the fuck cares about a guy. certainly not
the other guys just like him.
mircea_popescu: "this is
the us president coming live from amateur night in
thailand's
top
tranny spot!"
mircea_popescu: that's why you don't kill
the us president so
the vp can
take over.\
mircea_popescu: the point is "hey, listen
to your guy squeal. you gonna do something ? hm ? next week ? next month ? your guy ? isn't
this sad ? you gonna do anything ? can't do anything ? you suck
this bad ? what will happen when it's your
turn ? still nothing ?"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the point isn't
that "hey, we killed
this guy" / "oh, you got lucky / it was an accident / never happened".
trinque: no, I
take
that back.
those
that bested you watching is worse
than
the "public"
trinque: I dunno
that it really matters who's watching you fuck
the pig, just so long as you're not alone with your date
trinque: some british show did
this very
thing with
the prime minister, had me roaring with laughter
trinque: this guy can even overthink forcing
the head of an agency
to fuck a pig...
mircea_popescu has genuinely seen
this, "you got a cam, something ? i feel kinda weird going at it without anything"
mircea_popescu: here's a secret : most porn produced

☟︎☟︎ trinque: mircea_popescu │ incidentally : should we deedbot a version of
the logs, in
the manner of gpg source etc ? << certainly. does assbot perhaps dump what it has seen somewhere, kakobrekla? my logs would only go back so far.

☟︎ assbot: Logged on 07-11-2015 22:56:29; asciilifeform: an actual man would be optimizing for greatest number of blackshirts dead asap, rather
than censoring papers prior
to release
mircea_popescu: but
the cattle still wants
to "i have no choices" and "what could i do" and so forth.

The home of
Thomas Drake, a senior executive at
the NSA, was searched, his passport was cancelled and he lived under

tree ? << No particular reason, just entering
