BingoBoingo: ;;google Until
then, I’d only heard of “alcohol showers.”
Turns out 70% isopropyl alcohol is about
the only
thing
that can even
touch a scent like
that once its soaked into your skin. It
takes four or five bottles
to get really clean, but it’s worth it. It’s probably
the only scenario I can honestly endorse drinking a little of it,
too.
mircea_popescu: comes from br,
the ancient ur word for sawdust, and ead, which is rat droppings in maori.
BingoBoingo: Same for electical cable. I pity
the fire departments.
mircea_popescu: but, in
the interest of postmodernism,
the kernel should have a futher /u/bias/ which should contain bits describing
the bias-ness of
the /u/rand
mircea_popescu: the source
talking about bias is not a legitimate debiasing approach.
mircea_popescu: "Medical journals are rarely accused of ideological bias,
they are accused of financial bias.
The press are rarely accused of financial bias,
they are accused of ideological bias. If you studiously spend one month looking for
the opposite bias in both, what will happen is
that you will become an alcoholic. "
mircea_popescu: how about "stop pretending like you're gonna be doing
things and go
to bed." ?
ben_vulpes: "Scrap
the Welfare State and Give People Free Money"
ben_vulpes: hey y'all want
to hear a funny article
title?
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: which is
the article in which you discuss what a "supermarket" is?
BingoBoingo: ^Carl Mark Force IV leniency
tour is starting
mircea_popescu: derpy "social worker" just gave himself a monopoly. he is needed, don;'t you know, because parents aren't "political proxies" for
their children. heck, parents don't exist at all.
assbot: Logged on 21-10-2015 00:47:53; BingoBoingo: Need
the
trifecta of over weight item, hard
to insure, actually demands delicate
treatment beyond UPS or USPS can provide
assbot: Logged on 21-10-2015 02:30:16; asciilifeform: forgot
the
title
BingoBoingo: And if asciilifeform gendarmie predictions come
true

BingoBoingo: i.e. WHy are Darknet busts full og C IV xanax paraded while clearnet C III busts not so much an only involve...
to be revealed
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform:
Tis a new site.
The biological limits part involves US Law enforcement and clearnet markets
they seem
to like vs dislike.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Actually right now I'm working on a qntra piece on biological limits. originally
targeted it for end of
the month, but should be out by end of
the week
assbot: Logged on 21-10-2015 01:28:08; BingoBoingo: Also a wouldn't a 250 GHz chip cooled by having a small jet engine intake pull away
the hot air be cool?
assbot: Logged on 21-10-2015 01:10:25; mircea_popescu: i suppose in
the south of
the future
the masters live in orbit and
the slaves roam below.
to be abducted now and again for sexual services or w/e.
BingoBoingo: Fuck, radiant heat. We are
talking about engines in general, not John Galt's in particular.
BingoBoingo: Randiant heat from
the engine also a hazard.
mircea_popescu: if you move
the air fast enough it will actually add heat.
BingoBoingo: Seriously, except you
tell
the Po-Po you are curing cancer by donating your spare cycles
BingoBoingo: I mean an oil cooling system
that burn
the oil (Jet A only)
BingoBoingo: Also a wouldn't a 250 GHz chip cooled by having a small jet engine intake pull away
the hot air be cool?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: the only
time you have
to fan it is when
the
thing is INTOLERANT of
temperature.
the higher
temperature it can
tolerate
the less fan you need.
BingoBoingo: But if air heats faster,
there's gotta be a limit before you bring in
the noise
to bend air
to your will
mircea_popescu: (think about it -
temperature helps its function,
that's how it works).
BingoBoingo: Sure, but if
the monster wants
to idle at 300C you need moar
than a heatsink. I'm disappointed
there aren't many if any new chips like
this
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: It does if you need
to cool all
the power
assbot: Logged on 21-10-2015 01:02:21; *: BingoBoingo wishes more contemporary machines weren't afraid
to be loud in
the name of cooling.
BingoBoingo: And further in
the future quality slut breeders get a place in orbit without
the good view.
mircea_popescu: i suppose in
the south of
the future
the masters live in orbit and
the slaves roam below.
to be abducted now and again for sexual services or w/e.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: St Louis
tried
the city on a hill
thing and only got Ferguson and a bunch of outlying areas
that flood from
time
to
time
phf: mircea_popescu: well, yes, in
the above narrative it's a summer house, you go
there if you want
to be alone and study migration patterns of some quirky local species, which is your hobby. all
the action is in
the orbit
BingoBoingo: Of course. Good people
though only keep a
townhouse in
the city
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> no sane people wanted
to live in
the plain, for all of history, until machinery. << On a hill by a river or coast has always been and forever will be ideal on earth
