mircea_popescu: at the rate we're going we'll end up with the first l1 get together through planes crashing into each other sometime this year.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes so you're thinking like early march ? are you stopping by here too ?
mircea_popescu: phf dja see basic problems with the plan as is, taking a dozen sets over ?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes not much more than 16u or so though, so it stays rackable.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes what's that all about, you also flying over or something ?
mircea_popescu: "specifications". made by people with implicit assumptions. best sewage-wine everr!
mircea_popescu: i still have raws of my own girls & their "lesbian" friends that i've not even summoned the interest to look through yet.
mircea_popescu: in fact, i am one of the (possibly few ?) who actually STILL, to this day, produces more porn than he consumes.
mircea_popescu: but i have no need for a tb of porn, scatological or eschatological.
mircea_popescu: not so always. at some point, they actually had depth.
mircea_popescu: fuck me sideways, i had no idea torrents are for one to be able to amass fifty days' worth of hot topic cctv footage.
mircea_popescu: "what do you mean you really don't care about the most recent piece of holywood vomit, and that you think eg complete walter mathau filmography not being readilty available is scandalous! THIS IS NOT WHAT TORRENTS ARE FOR!"
mircea_popescu: in other sads, the state of eg torrents is beyond broken. there's all these solved problems of the late 90s /early 2000s which we discover unpleasantly that the new generation utterly unsolved in the meanwhile.
mircea_popescu: trinque ill tell you, this comments rss thing is fucking great.
mircea_popescu: FIVE CENTURIES. not appreciably closer to any kind of humanity.
mircea_popescu: infuriating as all hell, i grant you, but then again such has been missionary work since 1492.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo gotta learn patience. the orcs generally mean well but can't manage to apply themselves.
mircea_popescu: !~google "Smoke billows from the Empire State Building in New York, July 28, 1945, after an Army B-25 bomber en route to Newark Airport crashed into the upper floors of the structure. Fires were started on the top 11 floors of the building."
mircea_popescu: shinohai sadly misguided ; nevermind the "assholes", how about everyone else, all the copacetic timeservers ease the world of their unwelcome burden.
mircea_popescu: hanbot apparently they eat the neck and leave the turtle for dead.
mircea_popescu: apparently spending half a day being tumble-dried by the ocean is great for one's internals.
mircea_popescu: in other not-news, i've been shitting like a colon courrier over here, i had no fucking idea i was that fulla shit.
mircea_popescu: well, on the plus side they are carnivorous, so maybe they eat most of the guidebois.
mircea_popescu: in other news, so they lay about 100 eggs sometime in november, hatching takes seven-eight weeks. considering these were coming out on nov 12th ?! weird shit.
mircea_popescu: i suppose this explains why ~all of them automatically assume "this is my job". teh state has so failed the individual, it's inconceivable one might you know, fucking live.
mircea_popescu: hanbot bonus points : if you actually go through one of their dumbass "organized tours", other than the herd of fetlife cowsies everywhere, you're not even allowed to hold them!
mircea_popescu: jesus, you know the females come back every year to the beach they were born. the fact that only one nested there successfully means...
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo "there is no way to" / "you can't even provide the bare bones necessary supplies for using your services"
mircea_popescu: aik, does the whole swarm thing where the whole beach is moving with tiny turtles, whereas i thought this was a single nest event, as there were what, a dozen or two all within a few meters of each other.
mircea_popescu: so : there are four types of sea turtle known in costa rica. 1. eretmochelys imbricata, besides being VERY rare (critically endangered, too) has a beak, which the little guy lacks ; 2. chelonia mydas as far as anyone knows lives in tortuguero natl park, which is on the wrong side of the country (limon, vs this was if memory serves some miles down from jaco) ; 3. lepidochelis olivacea, besides not looking anything like that af
mircea_popescu: afaik all others have bony shells. but this was definitely leathery.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no idea specifically, some kind of chelonioidae
mircea_popescu: like a sort of mute benevolent something. let's say for touching one i have an intuitive understanding of why the world was carried by turtle rather than calipiter.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman they're tasty, sure, but believe it or not the little animal had a very distinct personality, in my hand.
mircea_popescu: da fuck must be rattling in the empty box above their shoulders to imagine anyone gives a shit whether they approve or disapprove, of anything.
mircea_popescu: the world can now spin as she's done her part, and all anyone could ever demand of her.
mircea_popescu: so that's it, precious cuntlet importantly declares "i approve of this thing" and that's all her job's worth, she's done.
mircea_popescu: i dunno, dumb cunts at an age they're barely worth selling by open outcry somehow hallucinated for themselves this role whereby they sit their ass down and the world brings them shit for their evaluation.
mircea_popescu: i just dun want you to get the impression your work's not really wanted or anything of the kind. as is perhaps very evident we have a massive shortage of human capital in teh republic, and it's been worsening over the years.
mircea_popescu: was a whole thing in the logs a few weeks back that eventually lead to this structure.
mircea_popescu: ave1 i'd have just had you do the genesis rather than wait, but the problem is you can't really, on current inband diffing.
mircea_popescu: "customer set montevideo dc on fire over dc's inability to provide 2u rack boxes."
mircea_popescu: if they do not provide 2u boxes, you go there with two containers of gasoline on the 13th instead of any parts,
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo do you see any problems with teh proposed setup ?
mircea_popescu: aaand since it's the glorious morning of the 8th, let's do some last calls.
mircea_popescu: ave1 yeah, ideally make them patches off the full genesis once that appears ; afaik hanbot is stuck waiting for phf's proper vdiff, which evidently is stuck waiting for the conjclusion of phf's republican-oriental adventure.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: nor is there some kind of historical or cultural component to it, as teh little clitlers appear to imply.
mircea_popescu: contrary to pantsuit fanfic, memory is unrelated to whining.
mircea_popescu: in other not rteally news, "moonrise kingdom" is not even atrociously bad. pubescent lovestory, not quite white cat/black cat but still.
mircea_popescu: hey, "impaled on coral". better than "impaled on acura"
mircea_popescu: i've not seen any, except two small fragments on the beach. white sorta carbide rock, notrly coral like people think of, the rosy australian stuff
mircea_popescu: so you go splat, big whoop. tho yeah, i kinda see boats with it always.
