decimation: yeah I guess it runs on 'bare pentium'
too
mircea_popescu: but you know, just because you like a girl's
tits is no cause
to
think she's got
the worlds best hairdo.
decimation: asciilifeform: I
thought 'colorforth' was written for winblows
mircea_popescu: rather
than some sort of
technical accomplishment per se.
mircea_popescu: and ALSO, i buy
the
theory
that
the principal reason chuck moore is mentioned by name is a successful eight digit settlement iwth intel
decimation: "The only reason I did it was
THAT COLORFORTH JUST DIDN'T RUN ON
THE
THREE MACHINES I HAD AVAILABLE." < my experience
too
mircea_popescu: "Then
the 18 bits of
the GA144. Don't be impressed. It is a stupid design error. At
the
time 18 bits static memory chips where in fashion." << i happen
top buy
this btw.
decimation: thus, farms encroach,
tribes kill lion - result: no more lions
mircea_popescu: now you know what it feels like
to be a cool kid, asciilifeform >D
decimation: I was reading another article somewhere -
thier point was
that if
trophy-hunting whites stop coming
to hunt lions because of
this bullshit,
they are not going
to keep
the wildlife reserves
mircea_popescu: first
time i hear about
this. consequently, i shan't be going.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> decimation: doubt
that it's as complicated as all
that. probably just straight mental mapping of
the lion in
the washington zoo, or even in some cartoon,
to
the real
thing << Last
time I went
to St Louis zoo
they had balding malnourished lions. Surprised local bangers didn't
take
them as bait for
training
their pitbulls.
assbot: Logged on 21-05-2015 04:09:48; asciilifeform: where believer is invited
to picture himself as blind from birth street urchin etc
mircea_popescu: the malnourished, inept population of
the coast
towns is so fucking ridiculous it'd be rather easy.
assbot: Logged on 06-08-2015 02:54:26; decimation: yes, note
that about 95% of
the 'satire' is approximately 'those rednecks are so backward/stupid/racsis/dumb'
decimation: I suggest anyone who is against lion-hunting: go help guard
the lions (without weapons) in
their
territory. when
the lion eats your leg as you sleep, you will know he is doing it with appreciation
BingoBoingo: decimation: My guess is
they melt for giant kitteh forgetting
they killed all of
their giant fittehs
decimation: BingoBoingo: sure, but
the problem remains: why are distant strangers on
the lion's side?
BingoBoingo: Just
they unlike
the Dentist will use an AK instead of a bow.
trinque: asciilifeform: is
this one on page 13 with
the american flag on a cloud about "yankees
think
they can own everything" or something?
BingoBoingo: decimation: Any decent Rhodesian
tribe is going
to kill
the lion
decimation: BingoBoingo: it's kinda like how
the zimbabwaen
tribes are now gonna have stories about why white people root for
the lions
that eat
them
BingoBoingo: <decimation> yes, in general
the rednecks don't give a fuck (rightly so) << Not just lack of giving a fuck, lack of need
to give a fuck
assbot: Logged on 06-08-2015 02:42:31; asciilifeform:
that's still 2x
the market rate for a chimp who clicks a mouse
to run 'EnCase'
mircea_popescu: " As such, 5 of
the 56 field offices operated by
the FBI currently lack a computer scientist assigned
to
that office's Cyber
Task Force."
decimation: this reminds me of
that 'anti-nazi' article I found in
the frankfurter zeitung
trinque: pic of
the guy wrenching open
the swastika jail cell window
trinque: it is interesting
to see
that defeating
the nazis was such a point of pride even in 85
decimation: asciilifeform: why with
the 'against
the nazis'? not exactly a difficult sell
decimation: "When
the lion was finally killed, no one cared whether its murderer was a local person or a white
trophy hunter, whether it was poached or killed legally. We danced and sang about
the vanquishing of
the fearsome beast and our escape from serious harm."
decimation: "A week later, my mother gathered me with nine of my siblings
to explain
that her uncle had been attacked but escaped with nothing more
than an injured leg.
The lion sucked
the life out of
the village: No one socialized by fires at night; no one dared stroll over
to a neighbor’s homestead."
trinque: asciilifeform: I laugh at
the gallows, not at any mob power
decimation: a very stark example recently is
the outrage/mockery over
that lion safari guy
decimation: yes, in general
the rednecks don't give a fuck (rightly so)
BingoBoingo: <decimation> yes, note
that about 95% of
the 'satire' is approximately 'those rednecks are so backward/stupid/racsis/dumb' << And yet us comparatively redder necks... Don't have urban hipster problems.
decimation: yes, note
that about 95% of
the 'satire' is approximately 'those rednecks are so backward/stupid/racsis/dumb'
☟︎ trinque: I can see
the point; in fact I made a similar one about "satirical" news shows recently
decimation: "My excitement was doused when I realized
that
the lion killer was being painted as
the villain. I faced
the starkest cultural contradiction I’d experienced during my five years studying in
the United States."
trinque: "...it's everyone's duty
to support
the
troops, and also
to support
the Second Amendment should
the day come when we need
to overthrow
the government and kill
those
troops."
decimation: asciilifeform:
to
the first approximation, we all work for
the fed
BingoBoingo: "Winnie
the Pooh, on
the other hand, wouldnt know
the first
thing about courage. If he were on United Airlines Flight 93, for example, not only would he have not joined
the revolt against
the
terrorists, but he probably wouldve gotten down on his yellow knees and sucked
the
terrorists cocks one by one. Oh, bother! he would shrug as
the al-Qaeda operatives drilled
the back of his
throat with
their pube-slathered ding
BingoBoingo: "Hes got
that swagger.
There are a lot of good lessons children can learn from a major-league pussy-crusher like Big Bird, such as
the importance of confidence, courage, and friendship. "
trinque: "I'd much rather my kids watch
the fuck machine named Big Bird." << oh my sides
BingoBoingo: Hey, kids, come watch
the emasculated bear with
the scary fingerless hands whos never fucked a day in his life and who is obsessed with a little boy of a different species.
