diana_coman in this vein was lulzy thing at lesbian club, chick is "i have no idea why i'm getting so drunk ?!?" "you keep drinking" "what ?! it suddenly hit me like... wtf." "you keep drinking." "what do you mean ?"
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman amusingly, they rarely got them, either. they got rural shitholes a la you know, georghe-gheorghiu-dej or vulcan or w/e the fuck jewels of socialism that no longer exist.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman it is said the lord of the jews has a special foible for idiots. at least so discovered the current (jesuit) pope.

diana_coman: mircea_popescu, what would be the link? my obs is that it's more whether drink is something that goes with meal and at any time or just something "special" aka binge idiocy

diana_coman: asciilifeform, I'm not very knowledgeable on reddit but I thought it was something where people asked questions and then their comments were voted up/down ?
mircea_popescu:

☟︎ mircea_popescu:
diana_coman well i had seen numerous rural middle aged males unable to walk. heck, it was the principal activity in the communism's abandoned factories by 94.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman ah, cvas as the rusian notion wasn't contemplated.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman i expect the reason drunks aren't as bothered by puke as the normal human is that they're so used to it. so a direct link might be that the women that habitually drink aren't nearly as likely to clean it up.

mircea_popescu:
diana_coman watch that cipslim next manages to figure out how saudi internets work.

mircea_popescu:
diana_coman not the same usage, yes, which makes their usage intensional, ie stylistically relevant, which it's why it's a joke.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman they preserved something romanian mostly lost
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman hey, i'm not proposing it's uninhabited or anything. good food, largest old collection of wine in europe (meanwhile im sure looted, but i did eat 1800s wine marmalade in their incredibly huge cellar that takes fucking semaphores is so big)

mircea_popescu:
diana_coman if he finds the old greuceanu etc series for a buck a piece and buys a few buckets he'll have perfectly legitimate us house's worth of collectibles.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman possibly he took his own women with this time, so isn't stuck depending on pot luck.

diana_coman: to recap clues as I see them: orcistan -> poor/undeveloped country; roofless palaces -> warm(ish); abandoned trainstations -> former colony/it was once something; good food + "you'll love Odessa" -> southern style; not enough language-fu -> !USSR; asciilifeform has "things that need to be done there" -> ????? basically this last one is a killer;

diana_coman: screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 reads nicely
phf:
diana_coman: you can also try ``cu -l /dev/ttyUSB0 -s 115200'' since that doesn't take over the terminal AND if it works, you should be able to paste ``strace cu...'' output from which we can figure out what system calls that thing did before touching the device

BingoBoingo:
diana_coman: Do you routinely take hime to the good playgorund (i.e. the hardware store)?

diana_coman: hi mod6, I've set up a public node running vanilla trb, at 103.36.92.112; it's still getting up to date so probably not of much use yet but it's meant to stay as it is anyway (it's at ~260k atm)

mircea_popescu:
diana_coman it'd matter a lot more if the actual handling cost weren't ~100 ECu or so per package.
diana_coman: asciilifeform>
diana_coman: as one who lives 20min from the fuhrerbunker, asciilifeform is not someone to lecture folx on 'time to move'. but i dun think anybody could ~pay~ me enuff to live in rotherhamistan... <-- on one hand most non-brits here (and yeah, it's an area with some 25%+ non-brits) anyway are a positive thing overall; on the other hand there is this (been repeatedly told) very British dream of retiring (with good
