davout: public mea culpa is pretty respectable
though if you ask me
fluffypony: well lots of people
told him at
the beginning
that
those guys were dodgy
davout: doesn't appear
to me it's anyone but his loss
mircea_popescu: whether it's 300 million strong or just in one retired engineer's head,
the same damned vocabulary, style and grammar.
mircea_popescu: to me
this strictly means
that
the methods "of government" are merely
the methods of educated stupidity,
there's nothing else
there. whenever a stupid part of one's worldview
tries
to avail itself of
the power justly earned by other parts
to maintain itself, you got a government
talking. and it
talks
the same way EVERY
TIME.
mircea_popescu: obviously i refuse
this approach, but note
the method for chrissakes. 2011, in obscure language, on obscure
topic nobody gives a shit about.
mircea_popescu: stian something and german
technology is best" etc, moves on
to proposing
that i am
trying
to diminish
the importance of x. ie, he is proposing
that i accept
the form of his argument (xtianity matters) and debate
the conclusions, in his
terms.
mircea_popescu: perhaps vaguely interesting
to asciilifeform : in
the comments of
the original article (see
http://trilema.com/2011/europa-crestina-si-alte-aberatii/#comment-71835 etc) a very familiar mechanism is at work : christian dude (who is otherwise a very clever, and well respected, commenter
there), after exhausting
the attempts
to plead
to authority ("oh you aren't qualified
to discuss ; oh merkel is from a party called chri
Zuardi: hi,
thanks, I am still catching up with all
trilema posts and
this channel's log :)
mircea_popescu: as
to why not anal, firstly because you're probably
too young and you'll move suddenly and jerkily like
too young people do and hurt her ; and secondly because you live in
the sticks and will give yourself an uti because you can't afford condoms ; and
thirdly because you'e insane and who
the fuck knows what nonsense you'll do with it (the us porn people are a fine example with
their anal desinfectants and bleaching and
mircea_popescu: but in more granular
terms, anal is necessarily less stimulating
than vaginal simply because
the ass is a U whereas
the vagina is a /\. only one of
these is designed
to give
the penis
the sort of stimulation it expects, ie, crescendo. or in other words : no cervix in
the colon, and no constrictive muscular reaction
to protect an absent cervix in
the colon muscles.
mircea_popescu: they're respectively even
tighter and even more stimulating.
mircea_popescu: moreover, if
tighter and/or more stimulating were
the point, why not fuck
the keyhole /
the hot plate.
assbot: Logged on 16-10-2015 03:29:25; BingoBoingo: Anal, because
tighter, more stimulating
shinohai: I would gladly put
that book on my mantelpiece if you were
to pen it.
shinohai: "On
the merits of Anal Intercourse." by mircea_popescu
mircea_popescu: "why anal ?" is in
the same vein as "why go
to school". because, obviously, "whoever likes me will like me for me as i am!!1"
mircea_popescu: ask every annoying woman
that you know whether she habitually engages in anal sex, be surprised at
the universal absence of
the behaviour.
mircea_popescu: the interesection between neurotic women and women
that
take it in
the ass with some regularity is practically nil.
shinohai: I mean, he's up
there where it's boring all
the
time. Maybe he doesn't know what great fun it is
to snort heroin off a
tranny's cock.
shinohai: Ok, so if your body is a
temple for worshiping god,
then you want god
to have a good
time, ammi rite?
BingoBoingo: Nah, it is more like a "blue life" whatever
the fuck
that is, but apparently billboards are
telling me nao
that blue lives matter
danielpbarron: shinohai, 1 Corinthians 6:19 Or do you not know
that your body is
the
temple of
the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? 20 For you were bought at a price;
therefore glorify God in your body[a] and in your spirit, which are God's.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: shinohai: Why does Lucifer run a bar in LA? Some
things aren't for us mortals
to sympathize with.
danielpbarron: >> Having Oral Sex - no (in marriage, see Song of Solomon) <<
the "no" is an answer
to
the question "is it a sin?"
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: Swallowing cum
though supports female fertility in a way
that is
tied
to
the specific man cumming
assbot: Logged on 16-10-2015 04:52:30; BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: Can we at least come
to a consensus
that oral sex is not a deviant form of sodomy
BingoBoingo: I
think I might be broken on a fundamental level. Or maybe I'm drunk naked and cold and ought
to close
the windows...
BingoBoingo: I've been drinking vodka and banging my head against
this for about 8 hours nao off and on. I feel way
too angry for a 116/67 blood pressure reading.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: punkman: I'm
trying
to bring low-s signing
to 0.5.x and 0.7.x but
the existing shit is in a worthless different fucking language.
kakobrekla: >at least we have bugs because it means
that we're doing something, we're actually innovating whereas a lot of our competitors don't have bugs because
they don't change
☟︎ cazalla: here, not reddit, not an attack, just saying having read daily for what, a year now, gets a bit much, spring is in full swing and summer on
the way, have a
toddler
to play with, need
to find a full job again, something gotta give i guess,
the whole bitcoin
thing is something i just want
to pack up in a box and look at again in a year
☟︎ cazalla: punkman, been a daily
thing for almost 3 years for me, just grown
tired of it and
the conversations about it past few months, i'm not saying "bitcoin is dead" just
that i'm
tired of
talking/reading about it after
this long, feel like going
to do something else for 6-12 months and looking at it
then after a break
☟︎ BingoBoingo: Mebbe because I am drunk and my mind is
tearing
HeySteve: I'd rather have cheaper coffee
than a richer online experience but
that's just me
HeySteve: Dear Steven,
Thank you for your enquiry around
the Fold app. We are not currently looking at virtual currency apps as we are focused on creating a local Starbucks app
that will bring a richer online experience
to our customers.
Thank you for your interest. Regards, Diana
BingoBoingo: cazalla: Well, our news child is now a
toddler. Imma just
trying
to get
the village involved in its raising
cazalla: BingoBoingo, problem is finding people who are passionate about bitcoin and lately for me, i couldn't
think of anything more boring
than bitcoin
☟︎ BingoBoingo: Basically only US legal because
the scamception involved lets league stakholders pass it off
to congress as a "skill game" and not gambling even
though it is scammy gambling
BingoBoingo: Not real
teams ever. Fake
teams made of real player playing for real
teams.
HeySteve: I don't really know
the other meaning. people run a pretend league based on real
teams and players?
BingoBoingo: I am abou
to pass out and I have a 'different' perspective on
that bezzel would like
to see others.
BingoBoingo: pete_duskenski has been great with
this as has
thestringpuller,
this
thing is here, for some definitions of queer it is
that, and it isn't going away anytime soon
BingoBoingo: Qntra is exactly
the way people who can't speak BTC++ can contribute
to understanding
the BTC ecosystem and, I would really appreciate more submissions on various fiat brokeness seen.
punkman: BingoBoingo: I'm not
terribly informed on
the situation, but I
think I'll do a followup soon
BingoBoingo: punkman: also weren't you going
to write something on Greece being a failed state like Ferguson at some point? Or is Greece still catching up?
BingoBoingo: punkman:
The particular scamcoin failing is not quite news, but a mechanistic documentation of why
this one is failing is news.
HeySteve: perhaps
the problem is "say
this is a scam" vs "investigate whether
this is a scam"
punkman: BingoBoingo: well as you said, not sure if it's news. especially considering
there's a dozen or
three Ether clones with same exact story
☟︎ BingoBoingo: Writing for qntra is a solid way for people who
think gud, but dun code gud
to build #b-a cred
BingoBoingo: punkman:
There's actually lot of potential for ruin. What I want
to know is how people can
take
that attitude
towards risk and not find writng for qntra appealing
BingoBoingo: HeySteve: Some of
that. It goes deep like Micheal Bay filming Alice in WOnderland
BingoBoingo: So far October has been an frustratingly boring part of Bitcoin. I am worried
though
that Qntra is crossing into its second year and people don't want a giftwrapped chance
to write a first story. Is qntra insufficiently established or does
this seem
too much of a
trap. I
the cost of fucking up in #b-a seeming
too high? I am confused.
☟︎ HeySteve: I did follow
the chat a bit. something about early adopter / investor shares being converted
to something else, now an IPO?
BingoBoingo: punkman: at some point
the greek in you will force you into poetry or sodomy
BingoBoingo: HeySteve: I don't hava a handle on it. I'm not sure it is news at all. It is scam on many levels. My only reservation and
the source of my disinterest is... I'm not sure actual people are affected
BingoBoingo: I am actually more
than a
tiny bit disappointed
that I drop for
the crowd a vagina
that could queef qntra shares
to
the extent someone is willing
to solidly pump it and...
the interest is low
BingoBoingo: HeySteve: You could do
this with more
time flipping
through sources
than reading sources.
HeySteve: I did question
the folks opening up Starbucks about whether
they'll accept
the Fold app as in like 10 other countries
BingoBoingo: punkman: Because honestly. Actual people aren;t losing
their shirts on
this. Great chance
though for marginally people
to work
towards becoming actual people by demonstrating a knowledge of how
the scamception works.
HeySteve: mmm sounds like a lot of research for me
to
take on right now
punkman: BingoBoingo: why not write it
then?
BingoBoingo: I want a piece
that says why with appropriate vitriol
BingoBoingo: HeySteve: In yesterday's logs. Factom or some shit. Filed for an IPO.
Total scamception
HeySteve: BingoBoingo, what sort of work are you
talking about?
BingoBoingo: shinohai: I went
to sleep and woke up only
to be on
the precipice of sleep again. Are you actually considering
this or do you want competition?
BingoBoingo: About 29 hours ago I offered a challenge people who wanted a chance
to establish a history of work in La Serrenisima could
tackle. Actual
takes have been... disappoint.
HeySteve: heh
true story. caps comment is a good eg. of poe's law
HeySteve: busy
touring exotic destinations from what I saw in r/monero!
HeySteve: fluffypony, how are
things going your side, and with Monero?
BingoBoingo still amazed
that
the fluffy gene when expressed is a defect in any breed of dog
☟︎ BingoBoingo: fluffypony: My brother's latest dog, likely far fluffier
than you or any extant equine
fluffypony: ok
Talisman is on -otc, not here, but same diff
BingoBoingo: <HeySteve>
this sort of fraud is rampant here in South Africa and from what I've heard from people, common in Israel
too << Oh you are in fluffypony land?
HeySteve: it's also possible
to open
the arbitration
to a jury of sorts
through hierarchial multisig
HeySteve: I'll require evidence from
tenant and landlord at start and end of contract and arbitrate based on
that
☟︎ HeySteve: if
the scheme
takes off, it's also a way for honest landlords
to attract
tenants by declaring
their compliance
to a standard
☟︎ punkman: were I renting houses
to orcs, I'd definitely not opt-in
to any such scheme
HeySteve: good question. for a dishonest landlord,
there are only disincentives. for an honest one, I'm still considering... obvious option is
to require a larger deposit
