mircea_popescu: how costly, how hard
to fix.
this is how he learned, incidentally. and it's no good.
mircea_popescu: but look how
terribru
the C rms has learned
turns out
to be.
mircea_popescu: it's a fine way for kittens
to learn
to mouse, and for young pioneers
to learn
to solder.
mircea_popescu: phf sure, but most of
the
things we do
today can't be
thus learned.
phf: mircea_popescu: i
think
the idea was imprinted on me
through soviet imagery still, of a young pioneer politely and carefully observing an older pioneer performing some
tricky
task, soldering say.
the implication was "this old person, knows better, so shut
the fuck up and learn"
mircea_popescu: another
thing much in
the vein of
the old
time pub function above was
the "calificare la locul de munca",
the last breath of apprenticeship.
mircea_popescu: "On older
terminals,
the underscore code is displayed as a left arrow, called backarrow,
the caret is displayed as an up-arrow and
the vertical bar has a hole in
the middle."
mircea_popescu: what has happened however was a shear (ie, kill
the middle).
there is no point in carnation lower class men should be engaging in
this sport,
that's not in any sense
their place. not like a random blue collar derp can,
through no matter how liberal application of port and
tavern-debate, become an engineer.
mircea_popescu: at
the very least it survives in
the better prep classes for lawschool.
phf: james lafond incidentally wrote how old
time pubs were places were men could run wild boasts by
the others and get called out or not, and
that
this form of conversation has been lost. seems
to me in "consensus" places
there's always some fuck ready
to butt in into any point, just
to make a counterpoint,
that it's inconceivable for redditards
that
there's a dozen reading and
thinking without running
their mouths
mircea_popescu: Matches for haslink:true log.bitcoin-assets.com, 5789
total results
mircea_popescu: it's fucking incredible
the serendipity of
this shit as overlapped on
that convo.
mircea_popescu: who figures "hey, i'll write a
tool, and if it does different
things for different people - all
the better!"
trinque: one
too many, I'm on a permanent
trip
trinque: but how
to measure
that in upvotes
trinque: I don't know
that I've ever seen better conversation anywhere else.
mircea_popescu: What strikes me in all
these IRC convos involving butters is
that
they are not
talking.
This is not a conversation.
They say shit past each other. No one listens, no one responds,
they're just on some dumbass
tirade for no purpose."
mircea_popescu: and, for a lol, penis size and social structured-ness are ALSO inversely correlated. which is why azns have
the
tiniest, and africans
the biggest.
mircea_popescu: which is why,
to
this day,
the best strat
to get laid is
to
TALK
TO HER.
mircea_popescu: (the fact
that you can
talk
to a mated female, on
top of all
the other strategies
to get her
to fuck outside her pair, changes everything.
trinque: so being able
to refer
to
the
thing caused it?
assbot: Logged on 28-07-2014 21:25:42; mircea_popescu: A CS student named Lin had a prick
the size of a pin. It was no good for girls but just great for squirrels,
they squealed with delight with it in.
trinque: yeah, even gorillas have
tiny ones
mircea_popescu: you know,
the average monkey is both much smaller overall, and
then her cunt's much
tinier proportionately still ?
kakobrekla: its what
they are fucking, its what
they feel for.
mircea_popescu: "An asshole with
these opinions on women cannot be
trusted
to be kinder
to his customers."
trinque: I mean where do opinions come from if not
that?
trinque: mircea_popescu: because any opinion outside
the hive mind is arbitrary!
trinque: sounds like mp doesn't know what's going on because he predicted
the present outcome before
the community was onboard with
the notion
mircea_popescu: i can't even
tell if
that's supposed
to be laudative or deprecatory.
trinque: I like
to
think I can speak idiot but..
mircea_popescu: no but seriously. so he could imagine what was going
through my head. and
then i was right long before people even knew what it was called and
therefore...
trinque: as per
that
thread, nobody's going
to fuck him for it
mircea_popescu: somehow
the words fail
to sentence. what's
the man
trying
to say ?
mircea_popescu: "I'd say he has completely lost
the plot at
this stage. He was calling bitcoinXT an altcoin long before it was even suggested. I can't imagine what's going
through his mind right now given
that I could imagine
the completely fucked up shit
that was happening before." << if anyone has a reddit
to english
translation service, please help.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it'd seem
the fact
that rape doesn't work in nature liek reddit wants it
to is becoming a much bigger problem reddit has with mp
than merely
the fact
that money doesn't work in nature like reddit wants it
to.
mircea_popescu: i'd fire her. she wants
to
teach
the kids
to
talk
trash about random people,
that's what lincoln is for.
mircea_popescu: and not only isn't she fired for
this, but somehow "the community"
thinks
this is sane.
mircea_popescu: some objectionable
twerp is proud about how she's
teaching some unfortunate nigglets
to "Talk
trash" about random strangers,
mircea_popescu: yaya. because apparently "there's six million idiots with nothing better
to do on
the web".
mircea_popescu: ag3nt_zer0 why can't it be
that
the woman does whatever
the fuck she wants with
the camera she boughjt in
the space she paid for and everyone else can just go dangle ?
ag3nt_zer0: mircea_popescu yeah not sure about her intentions... my first inclination was just
to
think she was an idiot but on second
thought
that
thought is a bit idiotic
mircea_popescu: "but if i do write i sometimes can also pretend like i don't know
that i'm wrong."
mircea_popescu: i suspect it's more
the case
that "wrote because i am wrong, and i know i am wrong, and if i don't write i can't sleep."
mircea_popescu: hard
to say exactly. and im
too disinterested
to go on a orwell bio kick.
mircea_popescu: in fact,
the only actual attention orwell has, at any point, enjoyed, is in
the fringe of 1984 afficionados, which suddenly saw itself bitcoinized into relevancy cca 2010. otherwise...
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i don't
think chesterton
thought anything about orwell past "hack".
BingoBoingo: Gotta counter
that double speak with
triple listen
mircea_popescu: dude wtf, nobody went
to school or something. here's some word soup for you!
mircea_popescu: "A group of fat-shaming gamers " << how does
that work ?
BingoBoingo: But she was being so unreasonable
that it helped my cause. When I
told
the cops
that I slipped
the nelson on her
they were congratulatory.
The one cop says, “Really, man, you used
the nelson? Way
to go—that’s
the best
thing for women who are
trying
to hit you!”
mircea_popescu: well heck, how is it my fault nature doesn't fit
their projections ffs.
jurov: i, in
turn, supplied buttcoiners with a certain walrus, we'll see
