mircea_popescu: and then i say "yes, but i'm rich, i don'

mircea_popescu: the average girly that a) looks like anything you'd fuck and b) isn'
t already outright working the streets has never in her life had in her hand, as discretionary funds, the cost of a decent meal. this is europe, EXACTLY like africa. minus the infrastructure, they're exactly the same place. exactly the same people anyway.
mircea_popescu: the many blessings of travel, you get to debug a random pile of strange every short time interval with arbitrarily limited toolsets. and people enjoy this! people who don'

http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-30#1921068 << it's the same thing as two years ago, and i fear two years from now too : 1. write "i am going to X" ; then either 2a. do x or else 2b-1. explain why you didn'
t do x AND 2b-2 explain what you're going to do differently, ie, CHANGE, about yourself, so as not to be in the b branch again ; and then later 3. review how well 2b-2 has been working out for you and CHANGE SOME MORE.

BingoBoingo: There's one way to keep mircea_popescu from going home and that is action. Blades spin, clock ticks, can'

BingoBoingo: The disease afflicting the republic is that 2013, 2014 through 2019 and three figure USD bitcoin reported by heathens to 4 and 5 figure Bitcoin reported by heathens is that while a bunch of very cool tools have been made, there hasn'

mircea_popescu: ikf you don'

mircea_popescu: eh, bs. reporting isn'

BingoBoingo: Having as we do finite erections and not infinite cunt, we don'

mircea_popescu: this is not a workable model. i won'

mp_en_viaje: because you can'

mp_en_viaje: yes, i'm very much aware "asciilifeform would rather roll out gossipd, trbi, sane comp irons, etc. ~with~ participation of mp_en_viaje" etc. the problem here is -- you will do no such thing. what you will do, instead, is reconfigure your own desk into some sort of shape you and you alone deem meaningful, and that's all. because it is not POSSIBLE, for the man who can'

diana_coman: asciilifeform: that's not an answer to my question, is it; there is that direct contradiction there, right? it can'
t just be waived because whatever and it precisely points at the fact that the problem is not about "sacking asciilifeform" really.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, it does not count. because it is ~retrospective~. this is how rocks communicate, "i can'

mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, cuz you can'

mp_en_viaje: if harems ended when the male couldn'

mp_en_viaje: he has the problems i ~could~ have, because i don'

mp_en_viaje: in fact, for best results she shouldn'

mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, indulge me. suppose you sit enthroned in your harem, and girly comes cuddling at your feet, like a cat. "master, please fuck me ?" now, your answer is gonna be no. this is a given, you simply can'
t keep up. and since it's a rational harem you're running there, she might inquire "but why not ?" and you say...

mp_en_viaje: fwiw i do not believe the morons who ended up on suburbs acted purposefully. they ~ended up~ there, as the just desserts of a life spent being derpy. they didn'
t derpy deliberately, they just derpy.
mp_en_viaje: so there has to be this directed class of malfeasants and all that. i don'

http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-27#1920455 << the reason i do not believe korea to be that interesting is that so much of their integration-resistence is built on deliberate blindness. if your computer is only safe if not connected to the internet, you don;

BingoBoingo: <mp_en_viaje> where the fuck's the whole manticore thing coming from then ?! << During hanbot's missionary work to tardstalk, the manticore piece was one of the arts commisioned. Don'

BingoBoingo: mp_en_viaje: I'm inclined to believe the split happens as described, but given the marketing of medicine in the US can'

mp_en_viaje: BingoBoingo, exactly that's my theory : split 1 : a1 the ones helped / b1 the ones that didn'
t need help ; split 2 : a2 the ones demented ; b2 the ones not demented. the idea is a1 a2 are ~same, and in this context you can'
t pretend they're "a population". they're two.

mp_en_viaje: i once passed an exam (whatever, highschool term paper) because i introduced as a lemma a clearly absurd geometrical proof ("all straight angles are obtuse") and then on the basis of this 1=2 proceeded to prove the question at hand. the teacher a) gave me full points because couldn'

☟︎ mp_en_viaje: depends what you want and what you're doing, kinda the problem here is, a very general question can'

mp_en_viaje: businesswise i dunno, if you have some kinda insider tip then it may work for you ; but in the general i suspect cr is actually overbought as it stands, and while the effect may be least noticeable in the rural edges, there's a reason for this -- marginality dampens, meaning the tiny sliver of overboughtness spilled all the way to over there is actually fair and market supported, meaning good times won'
t propagate any better.
