mircea_popescu: pushing
the point a little, neh ? i mean what, even
the first basic qualification
thing for bitcoin is not a week old.
mircea_popescu: "what, with
the relevant bits safely pushed away,
the pudendal shield pressing against
the nose. LOGIC!"
mircea_popescu: because you'd have
to be pretty high
to imagine
THAT is how eating cunt works.
assbot: Logged on 26-08-2015 02:31:23; asciilifeform: and
the required reading dir is full of 'whitepapers' concerning 1990s-style centralized shitpal-esque 'coins'
mircea_popescu: this is
the deep dark secret
they don't want
to face.
the "effaceable"
trend on social media is just
that - another expression of
the fundamental
truth
that social media does not matter.
mircea_popescu: ironically
this isn't either. who gives a shit what derps say on
twitter.
mircea_popescu: except you get a few
thousand meaningless pages per day or something. but
those are mere parameters.
the idea is
the same.
Casper-: no, nothing specific, i'm just
trying
to figure out who like
to read
that's all, i've liked Eric
Casper-: Hey, i've read some of your stuff (qntra, contravex, dilema). is
there a list of guys who's opinion you respect? e.g. more blogs/twitter
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo was
this because "no longer silver" or because "no longer a consideration", as in "sterling promise" ?
mircea_popescu: loper-os.org/pub goes
to loper-os.nfshost.com/pub/ if you care.
mircea_popescu: pre bitcoin nobody had any fucking idea what computing even is supposed
to be.
mircea_popescu: anyway. at least in romania's 90s,
the life of a young
theoretical physicist was ~90% derive and
the rest chicken scribblings of
the kind you mention.
mircea_popescu: but yeah, i was explaining
to
the 5yo plane composition and shit.
mircea_popescu: it actually was so good
the baby brother of a friend mostly wanted
to "play derive" when he visited.
mircea_popescu: anyway.
the notion
that you can get a computer
to "do your derivation" is exactly like
the notion
that you can get a computer
to "do your
thing"
mircea_popescu lived with
the exact same problem, even in
the old days of derive.exe
mircea_popescu: "oh, i couldnb't afford
to live here if i had
to rent"
mircea_popescu: and hiding
the cost of real estate from yourself (i don't rent, i own!) is just bad business
mircea_popescu: lol i don't give
that much of a shit. but i also wouldn't want
to own.
mircea_popescu: it's about, if i had
to guess, 20khz. and prolly was
there before but w/e, 8khz or somerthing
mircea_popescu: and it goes on after you
turn it off, for like 5 minutes
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform incidentally,
this isn';t
that. you
turn on
the water, and five minutes later
the whole
thing bellows. no banging.
mircea_popescu: and one unlucky repair, even one just-such-weight faucet can make
the whole
thing an organ)
mircea_popescu: (for
they unfamiliar : old pipes in old buildings have, like any other rigid formation, resonancy frequencies.
mircea_popescu: in other news,
this building is easily 200 years old,
the pipes are certainly solid steel, and
they got
the curse
mircea_popescu: which is fine, whosoever can do whatever
the fuck
they do, but
this voting braindamage...
assbot: Logged on 16-02-2014 22:04:18; asciilifeform:
they pass an old man who says, 'don't drown
this fellow. i'll feed him dumplings, he won't have
to do any work but
to dip
them'
assbot: Logged on 26-08-2015 05:20:15; mircea_popescu: heck, give fathers back
the power
to shoot
toddlers
that don't obey commands, see
the "demographics problems" end overnight.
mircea_popescu: heck, give fathers back
the power
to shoot
toddlers
that don't obey commands, see
the "demographics problems" end overnight.
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: so why'd
they shoot
the
toddler BingoBoingo ? was it
the "officer felt his life endangered" or was it "toddler didn't obey comamnds"

trinque: BingoBoingo: sounds a bit like
this news I'm reading of
the "market rally" "disintegrating".
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
The pretense. As
the Obeast loses distinctive sex characteristics it overcompensates in adopting cultural signifiers.
mircea_popescu: i get it, you leech and wish
to complain about how
the content you leech is packaged.
this makes sense in your alt-universe ?
mod6: low was 0.00014430 on mar. 23rd according
to btcalpha
☟︎ BingoBoingo: Ah and here's assbot feed's best part. Keeps
the conversation going.
gernika: BingoBoingo: something's wrong with
this sentence I
think: "Vaizey instead want
to part
the buyer and his purchase
to part in a sale as has happened previously when 'cultural' export bans have been applied
to artifacts."
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: i'ma let you finished but what level of hotness are
the sorority girls at said uni?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Interesting
trap in
thumbdrive?
BingoBoingo was surptised when joining #bitcoin-asset-trades just how much stuf didn't make
the cut for arriving here
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> ... << l0l, i always imagined mircea_popescu had a wooden panel full of analogue gauges for mpex, a ship's
telegraph for changing course, and a speaking horn for dictating more complex orders << I imagine at
times even
the ships captain wants
to step away from
the bridge for a bit of sodomy without being completely cut off
gribble: smickles was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 1 year, 10 weeks, 6 days, 21 hours, 48 minutes, and 50 seconds ago: <smickles> easily a few more bil in
things like BPOs and BPCs
BingoBoingo prefers
those nice well paved country roads
that don't have marked "lanes" (because why mark up
the
tarmac when
tractors obliviate much
things?)
Adlai: and unfortunately (from
the perspective of "fail earlier oftener louder faster stronger") usually just results in returning
to
the lane
Adlai: nah, actually leaving
the lane is clearer
trinque: never a clearer sign
the guy isn't
mats: he was high and literally said, "i'm not going
to crash
the car, man" five seconds before he went off
the road
☟︎ mats: the driver hadn't
turned off
the dance music yet and it felt like i was in a B rated movie
BingoBoingo: I like
to
think of QE as
the bog
the car was driven into because OMG a skunk.
To avoid
the pain of a honest crash
the doors became embeded
too deep
to allow exit from
the vehicle
trinque: could
toss it in a ditch, could engulf it and continue on, who knows!
trinque: heh,
the QE was a mudslide
that lifted
the car up, carried it along in
the same direction for a bit
