mircea_popescu: because if it weren't...
think for just a minute how horrible life were if in point of fact we were imortal.
mircea_popescu: well...
they're colored. you ever seen my pic with
the sea slugs ?

the past
two weeks Sandberg was anywhere nothing useful is happening, and I'm going

that Sandberg was featured all week on Access Hollywood, holy Christ, she
thought
this was a good
thing. "Feminism is back in
the mainstream in a big way," she wrote, I assume in between quaaludes, "the women's movement is actually moving."
mircea_popescu: and i meant indelible not inedible. i blame
the keyboard.
mircea_popescu: but some obscure
thing about what is interesting or not.
mircea_popescu: that's your inedible point of contact :
the same agent
that cooed and went heels over head
through
the use of
the same mechanism
then
taught you how
to usew
that mechanism.
mircea_popescu: you are familiar with
the basics of human sexuate reproduction i expect ?
mircea_popescu: that's how
that
thing got added in
there, outside of
that line it's dead.
mircea_popescu: grandfather is only present in
the father (and his antecessors) chain.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile,
the context of your father shares a lot with your own.
mircea_popescu has serious
trouble evaluating
the gender of people who lived in socio-cultural constructs
that share little with his own in any sort of
term
that's meaningful for common parlance.
mircea_popescu: dude i have no idea,
the long dead are a 4th fucking gender.
phf: yeah, yours is going
to go on dec 22
mircea_popescu: or in other words,
the only reason you
think
they're still men is because
their key expired and you don't have
to refresh anything.
mircea_popescu: phf i doubt assbot actually updates
them. it might also not look at expirations, i dunno how kakobrekla did it, maybe he weighs in.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but
they are dubious scientists. if euclid walked over here and got into an argument with me over fucking bannach space algebra, pete_dushenski would prolly be right in his wing with a !rate euclid -1 gramps has nfi where his rope ends.
phf: mircea_popescu: i don't
think
that's
the case.
there's some magic happening, because
there are no provissions
to do a key refresh yet my formerly expired key still works.
mircea_popescu: "no but really, it's more about partnership". i'm sure it is. and it gets
tested never. "no, like, once someone gets cancer".
tyvm, i prefer
to create my own problems.
mircea_popescu: but some common ground can be found. "your wife won't do what you
tell her
to ? what does
the possessive denote
then ?" for instance. "oh but it hurts. and she finds it disgusting". yeah.
that's
the fucking point. of course she'll obey an order
to eat more chocolate.
mircea_popescu: to some people,
the notion
that men aged > 50
today as well as
their antecessors didn't do x y z
thing automatically disqualifies
them, as men.
to some other, it's just ridoinculous bs.
mircea_popescu: note
that you're no more required
to be a plumber
than i'm required
to give a shit about lisp. you get
to pick your own spot where your vita brevis makes no difference anyway.
mircea_popescu: the
thing with science is
that
there's no science outside of what science you make.
there's no wave function in
the actual fucking fermion.
mircea_popescu: "oh i
tried
to look into
this whole darwinian stuff. mmmkay..."
mircea_popescu: here's a pro
tip : everyone investigating matters out of paradigm decide, with clockwork regularity,
that
their attempt was a mistake.
mircea_popescu: the same
thing you gain from
trying
to figure anything else out.
mircea_popescu: i don't
think you're enough of a pedophile
to give a shit about what
teenaged women do anyway.

the bidet and go at it.
assbot: Logged on 13-10-2015 02:07:53; *: mircea_popescu never uses
the innundated
toilet model. it's fucking stupid.
phf: how does assbot handle key expirations? does it periodically download new key from sks or it downloads it if you
try and use an expired key?
mircea_popescu: and entrenching aristocracy means sclerosis and stuff like
that, but let's not get
too serious.
mircea_popescu: he happens
to be exactly right,
too. welfare class strictly means entrenching aristocracy, it isn't even a
thing on and of itself. just a sympthom of
that phenomena.
mircea_popescu: he entrenchment of an aristocracy, can't have one without
the other once you get bigger
than 20M, ask Bismarck. "Does he write for
Time?" No. But keep
this in mind every
time you hear how great it is Bill Gates is curing malaria after leaving us all with Windows."
mircea_popescu: in media and not understand media?
The fact
that feminism is in
the mainstream means
that it doesn't exist, it is no longer real, in
the same way
that when you hear "gun control debate" it's a lie and "fiscal cliff" is an easy
to market, safe distraction from
the structural problems
that can never be named, here's one: for any heterogeneous population,
the expansion of a "welfare class" is logically inseparable from

☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: and in other news
these monte cristos are fucking exquisite.
BingoBoingo: If
there was a single cannon
the idiots could
take it
mircea_popescu: the side point being
that agreement is neither required nor actually
the criteria.
mircea_popescu: just a large-ish body of accepted knowledge which merely appears accepted "by everyone" in
the sense
that nobody agrees with all of it but nobody has seriously attacked all of it.
phf: i
thought
the matter of subkeys, "automatic" key replacements or substituions was settled by hanbot's story. i really put
too much faith in it as
the b-a canon seems like

☟︎ punkman: anyway, good
thing I distributed my key before
the shappening ;)
nubbins`: shinohai surely your country has a law limiting how much change can be used
to settle a
transaction?!
punkman: unfortunately it seems hard
to refresh current key using new cert-digest-algo
punkman: dunno, I worry more about someone refreshing his keyring and ending up with extra subkeys under my main key,
than a second main key appearing with same fingerprint, so I'm definitely setting my cert-digest-algo
to sha512
shinohai: ^ would love
to purchase for
the sole purpose of making court-ordered payments
mircea_popescu: it's not like
the distinction is in any way meaningful. it's pure bullshit, which is one of
the major reasons
the pgp "standard" is so borken.
there's no actual enforcing of
the notions it
then purports
to expose
to
the verbal world.
punkman: well I'm more worried about subkey shenanigans
than someone finding a collision for my fingerprint
punkman: I don't see any mention of sha1 in
the rfc regarding subkey sigs etc
assbot: Logged on 12-10-2015 22:51:13; punkman: btw if you don't want
the signatures on your subkeys being sha1, I
think --cert-digest-algo is
the option
that needs changing
nubbins`: "If I was in
their shoes, I'd..." ...suck just like
they do
mircea_popescu: funny how many people discover
they really got nothing
to say once
the gate is
there.
mircea_popescu: after which litigation, sex
tapes, and finally married an ex nfl quarterback.
mircea_popescu: miss california / miss usa aspirant, asked by
that slime perez hilton what she
thinks of same sex marriages, didn't have
the presence of mind
to
tell
the old fag
to stuff it with
the bullying, as
this is about hot young women not about wrinkly old poofs nobody would fuck with a loaned goat penis,
mircea_popescu: unrelatedly, anyone familiar with
the life of
this 2010 rapunzel, carrie perjean ?
punkman: btw if you don't want
the signatures on your subkeys being sha1, I

☟︎ mircea_popescu: iirc i have a "why you don't want
to chain hashes"
thing somewhere.
