mircea_popescu: yes, young people you can straighten out whether
they want
to or not.
mircea_popescu: yeah well. so now you can look upon
teh priors as such.
assbot: Logged on 18-10-2015 16:38:17; mircea_popescu: forget about it. go up
to every woman over 50 you run into, kneel before her, kiss her shoes, beg her
to give you something
to do. explain
that you have made such a mess of your life,
this is actually
the only sane avenue out.
mircea_popescu: i diagnosed
the patient's evaluatory mechanism as
terminated.
mircea_popescu: also happens
to be how various nuts end up at
the doctor. "what i do doesn't work" "don't do
that" "ARE YOU KIDDING ME!??!?!?!"
mircea_popescu: the problem with diseased mental states is
that
THEY ARE IMPRODUCTIVE.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the problem with diseased mental states is not
that
they don't have
their own, often very well drawn out, self-consistent "logic".
mircea_popescu: i wonder if one could make money with a new-age-y brand of "swarovki" crystals
that you... personalize.
mircea_popescu: certainly no vagina.
thinking of
this... i wonder how vaginal diamond polishing would work.
assbot: Logged on 18-10-2015 16:20:12; asciilifeform: i'd
trade it all for pen, paper, and zero orcs
mircea_popescu: yeah, well,
the problem is
the broken brain
that fails
to comprehend how spoons work is also unsurprisingly going
to incorrectly evaluate suicide as an option.
mircea_popescu: the case here is, schmuck : when i drink coffee, my eye hurts. commander :
take
the spoon out of cup before driniking. schmuck : i would rather kill myself.
mircea_popescu: no, see, it is not your job
to contribute anything intellectually
to
this.
assbot: Logged on 18-10-2015 16:15:41; mircea_popescu: omaigawd
these idiots with forcing cigarette packs
to depict whatever valuable messages.
mircea_popescu: no,
that's exactly what happens. his worthless existence is forfeit, but he'll hopefully have some kids a little less retarded
than him
mircea_popescu: forget about it. go up
to every woman over 50 you run into, kneel before her, kiss her shoes, beg her
to give you something
to do. explain
that you have made such a mess of your life,
this is actually
the only sane avenue out.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: so what exactly is
the start situation, 25 derp with 100k in college debt, no skills, no resources, no social net, in
the middle of a shitland like
the us ?
mircea_popescu: so yes, you're right :
the idiot-poor imagine
that
the source of
their misfortune is
the malfeasance of a ~particular~ event, rather
than
the large clump of shit
they carry around on
their shoulders.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: and fire as a class has not removed
the option of keeping
the bulk of your skin.
mircea_popescu: you have
to have deals between
them
to allow each
to get what he wants.
mircea_popescu: here's
the
thing : at
the
time
the sale completed you didn't know who is pulling
the dud.
they
thought
they got equal value.
mircea_popescu: or moreover, perhaps, but i don't
think you have
the right idea.
mircea_popescu: "it was better". i'm sure. until it is and all you can
think of is how
to
trade dad's old house for
two shiny new ipads and a van.
mircea_popescu: fine, so you did without
this, and
that. now you do without
this other and
that other. so what of it ?
mircea_popescu: "oh, we did without", is
the answer, if
the guy;'s not
too much of an intellectual coward and
the matter's even considered.
mircea_popescu: yes, "all
the girls were happy and all
the boys lalala". but did
they know how
to suck cock ?
mircea_popescu: i've had
this discussion with old folk in romania.
they have a very distinct FEEL for
the old style settled village life in
that space. i have a very precise understanding of it, because
they're cows and i'm
the young lord. nevertheless,
the point stands :
mircea_popescu: for a co2
this is hard work. from each according
to his complexitits.
mircea_popescu: "all my grandcarbons
traded soot for gaseous form, said
the co2. and given half a chance, i'll
trade it right
the fuck back, said he. and so it was, and had been a number of
times prior.)
mircea_popescu: (note
that
the 0 orcs in
THAT case comes from lack of differentiation.
there's a lot fewer retarded children at 2 weeks
than at 2 years of age. guess why ?)
mircea_popescu: your grandfather
traded
the pen paper and 0 orcs for
this, and
this is what you have.
mircea_popescu: they are, much like
the jet, mere prongs. extensions.
that require
the whole story, and
the whole story is
that finance.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no. because none of
the
tools you hoard, your grandfather could have had.
mircea_popescu: i know, i know, "british researches discover antioxidants hold secret
to eternal lyf"
mircea_popescu: the existence of landlords as a class is no more
to
their detriment
than
the existence of fire as a phenomena.
assbot: Logged on 18-10-2015 13:49:52; mircea_popescu:
this is like saying
the mcdonalds makes a
tidy living off giving out wrong change.
mircea_popescu: manufacturers are putting stuff like "it's what's inside
that counts" on
the remaining space and winning with it.
mircea_popescu: omaigawd
these idiots with forcing cigarette packs
to depict whatever valuable messages.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: e.
this is a very vulnerable position
to be in, and it requires immediate and insistent attention.
mircea_popescu: it's not like i hate you or anything.
the problem is
that you're intellectually imuno-compromised so
to speak, by which i mean : you get ideas, which is fine, but also a common function of
the human mind. but
then when you go
to evaluate
them, your evaluator is broken, and when
the evaluator is called into question it's discovered in
turn
that
the building blocks are also broken and in
turn
the building blocks for
thos
assbot: Logged on 18-10-2015 14:40:40; pete_dushenski: HeySteve in large part,
that's why ~people~ hang around here :
the bluntness
HeySteve: pete_dushenski well I agree, it has made
things clearer. helps me when approaching people who won't speak
their mind, knowing how
they will might it.
pete_dushenski: HeySteve in large part,
that's why ~people~ hang around here :
the bluntness
☟︎ HeySteve: well,
that's a bit blunt but I'll certainly consider
the objections and problems.
mircea_popescu: not only is
this a horrible idea, but it is my considered opinion
that you are very far yet from
the intellectual maturity
that'd allow you
to marry, let alone raise children, and
that running any kind of business is many many years in
the future AFTER
THAT.
HeySteve: and
that's mostly
the costly stuff, although
trying
to
think of exceptional cases of subtle but costly damage
HeySteve: but if someone uses
the microwave as a BBQ (happens here)
then it's clear
mircea_popescu: you can
tell if dirtyness occurs from amateur shot digicams ?!
HeySteve: so you can say if damages or dirtiness occur and
tenant loses fair cost
to fix
that, or landlord is
trying
to pull a fast one and doesn't get
to keep deposit
mircea_popescu: what do you do when
the landlord and
the
tenant each upload a video and
they don't even look like
they come from
the same place ?
mircea_popescu: so ima spend
two hours shooting amateur footage
to (maybe!) save 60 bucks a year from now ?
HeySteve: the evidence
thing, at start and conclusion of contract,
tenant and landlord document condition of property with photo and video
mircea_popescu: except
they already did
that and are lying about it now.
shinohai: "Dear Mr. Landlord: I knew you were probably gonna keep my deposit anyway, so I just went ahead and
trashed up
the place good so you can keep
the deposit."
