mircea_popescu: mod6 well, which way do you want to go ? i assumed that was kinda your plan, bake ada vtron, meanwhile maintain perl one functional but not really ugprade or anything. or ?
mircea_popescu: mod6 i meant your not-yet-baked. it's getting baked eventually neh ?
mircea_popescu: somehow the longer the plaintive wail of the "went to college! independent professional woman!" went, the pornier it sounded.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform by the way, saw an add somewhere which went like "hello, this is massage therapist. no seriously, not sex whatsoever. this is medical. please don't wink wink nudge nudge."
mircea_popescu: you telling me it's just a squeaky toy for the pets of masseusses to pass the time with ?!
mircea_popescu: er" is exactly like having two broken cars on your front lawn. gimme the porsche and let me be, wtf.
mircea_popescu: and no, "anything is content for someone" dun fucking hold. this is the direct equivalent of the "dating site" fallacy, whereby "eveyone has a special someone matching them put on this earth by our infantile protestant notion of god" becomes a "scientific blabla" (ie,
http://trilema.com/2015/the-lulz-in-dating/#selection-69.0-89.459 ). bullshit. most people are broken, and the idea that they'll be "harmoniously broken togeth
mircea_popescu: i mean, if i bother to pick it up and mock it it maybe becomes content, on a slow day. but there's one of me and at last count >50mn of the idiots.
mircea_popescu: why exactly is this needed, vice couldn't handle the volume of all the useless crap fat ugly whores spewed out for $5 a title ?
mircea_popescu: their top stories being... "i grepped reddit for a string", "here is some shannonized nonsense about a topic too large for enric durany to touch", "how a kid from sf started a school in india" and ON AND ON.
mircea_popescu: what fucking content, hackernoon is pompously "where hackers give a shit" except omitting to discuss how slashdot sold to spammers for exactly the sex traffic value above, and slashdot ACTUALLY WAS a place hackers gave a shiot about, unlike hackernews, say, idle pretense aside.
mircea_popescu: and they're all there because a bunch of business school majors truly imagine they can compete for gatekeeping ; and "content will come"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there's also an endless supply of the "totally not the same thing as this" "platforms", medium, that shitty thing with "i made $0.05 with this post" reddit tip bot extension and so on.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what REALLY happened was that rms got in everyone's way with his usual "i'm dumb and slow" routine, so they took a decade to route around him
mircea_popescu: it's not a fucking problem outside of "holy shit i'm old and i can't deal with reality".
mircea_popescu: and it's exactly the reason "sex trafficking" is a problem, also. >99% of females have entirely no value whatsoever, as pigs are cheaper to butcher. of those, 14% or so have some resale value as fucktoys, generally in the bitcent to 0.1 btc range.
mircea_popescu: the problem is that people have absolutely nothing to say to anyone.
mircea_popescu: the "problem" of "social media" isn't that people lack the place, methods and mechanisms whereby to communicate their interesting, valuable etcetera verbiage.
mircea_popescu: in the sense that spending your life going through battlefields looking for sellable scrap metal is fun. africa's fulla this fun.
mircea_popescu: and i include greenspun in the idiots pile. along with the rest of the "luminaries".
mircea_popescu: it only exists because a group of idiots that had no business touching computers nevertheless got some, and their only "idea" was "hey... we should try and control how people display data on their own machines"
mircea_popescu: anyway, re earlier discussion : i find it fucking hilarious that the webtards are actually trying to rebuild bulletin boards. "great improvement over php, ruby!". douchebags, php only exists because of your shit-headed "web" hallucination!
mircea_popescu: it turns on i'm not the first one to have done this then ?!
mircea_popescu: PLUS you get for the first time now the best thing ever : your guy can a) learn (say, spells) and b) equip, items. because there's meaningful effects to have.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform "move that crate to the left, but NOT YET or else that weird plant shoots you as it's exactly diagonal"
mircea_popescu: phf the spec here is "have a library of good films accessible to friends" rather than "i want to watch something between blowjobs"
mircea_popescu: also, sokoban is an achieve-structure game ; supaplex more of a reach-x
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform incidentally, here's an idea : think sokoban, but extended so that 1. there's enemies, which can kill you, and 2. you can actually shoot projectiles at them. take advantage of diagonal/straight piercing/exploding and of course destroyable/nondestroyable movable/non movable environment.
mircea_popescu: phf what are you using btw ? i'm thinking deluge, apparently has a web interface can just get the girlies set up with.
mircea_popescu: what, russkis can't read subtitles like sane fucking people ?
mircea_popescu: phf the notion that you'll have a local capable of the delivery of any arbitrary actor... really ? kozlov gonna sound like marylin ? slim ? etcetera ?
mircea_popescu: 481 * 9 = 4329, ie more than the hd i bought. not cheap.
mircea_popescu: kinda why i have 0 interest in teh ruworld torrents, nfi who told these folks it's ok to hire some tolomak to do say richard burton. wtf.
mircea_popescu: lobbes you added gopher to your hopper ?! what did grace say ?
mircea_popescu: phf do you genuinely see a problem with cd-size movies ?
mircea_popescu: it blows my mind i got a discount for being in latinoland.
mircea_popescu: phf suppose tomorrow you decide you want to see $item you read on trilema. should it take you a week ?
mircea_popescu: holy shit they're expensive now. i just bought a 4tb toshiba for ~100 bux locally ; seems item is like 120 or so online ?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes it's a low spec computer (mostly, two huge disks, otherwiuse modest) ; but anyway, something to grow into.
mircea_popescu: al schwartz's "believe it or not ketamine dun work" has a lot to do with "well... you've been to the dentist all these many years ?"
mircea_popescu: one day when you really need it -- it'll work for you.
mircea_popescu: "well... apparently it hurts you ? i've seen women go through gangbangs with less extrapyramidal effects"
mircea_popescu: anyway, and she wanted to put me under! and i was naw, go ahead. took some convincing, and by the time she was halfway through she was sweating profusely and had the shakes. "but doesn't it hurt ?!?!"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not just usian disease anymore. i had some work done recently, very pretty girl, quite competent (sadly, being a good dentist requires the steady hand only a properly developed brain can produce. retards can't ever be sharpshooters, dentists, surgeons etc because dubious genetics -> dubios fenotype -> too ungaitly assymetric to perform)
mircea_popescu: if dentists were programmers they wouldn't have any need for drills, just cement over cavities and then cement over that.
mircea_popescu: imo definitive explanation of why rubylang rots brain and you're better off learning perl before you start doing 5.days.ago.days.days.ago
mircea_popescu: "technology we've been working at for five years" "because you're retarded, and your tooling sucks"
mircea_popescu: all these fucktards, you know. oh, "smashing success". dude, it's an off the cuff item gets done if it even needs any doing over a weekend.
mircea_popescu: phf ben_vulpes Framedragger any one of you want to add a gopher service to teh logotron ?
mircea_popescu: the funny thing is the cocksuckers aren't even PAID for the fluff pieces.
mircea_popescu: ("oh mp, that's racis, it just went unreported before" "your mother went unreported.")
