decimation: in
theory bsd and mac should be similar
mircea_popescu: <mircea_popescu> oh macs. yeah
that's been a pain. a binary for it is still being worked on, but it's slow going. if you have an ubuntu anywhere, from what i hear it's pretty smooth. also windows binaries work.
mircea_popescu: <waylow> I'm on mac so I couldn't figure out how
to install
the game
assbot: Logged on 25-06-2015 00:07:18; mircea_popescu:
there's absolutely no value in software. let him steal.
BingoBoingo: From an era before Whitey invented suburbia
to concede sexual prowess
to
the african american
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i dunno
that primary sources escape
the suetonius objhection.
BingoBoingo: Gus
the Christmas ornament of course being one of
the antagonists in
the original blockbuster film
BingoBoingo: Maybe
this is
the wrong epoch's fiction being contrasted. Maybe 'Uncle
Tom' and 'Gus'
the christmas ornament would cover a larger range of outcomes.
mircea_popescu: so we're switching "fiction as written by a respected source"
to "fiction as alf feels like recounting it for
the purpose of current convo" ?
mircea_popescu: pick one,
they all have it, as part of being credible.
mircea_popescu: do i need
to quote verse and chapter
to you ? because if i do you're eating crow.
mircea_popescu: this is strictly different from "jewish princesses imagining
themselves special in own mind"
mircea_popescu: people naming
their own
terms were in
there - provided, of course,
they got
to magic away problems.
assbot: Logged on 25-06-2015 01:46:57; mircea_popescu: anyway. people who actually magic away problems, in any field, name
their own
terms.
BingoBoingo: Seriously people were like "It's a misdemeanor don't fight it." I'm like "It's a misdemeanor and I'm white.
They prolly don't anticipate having
to prosecute it"
mircea_popescu: Because people normally plea evidence was never collected or lost according
to intel << lmao.
BingoBoingo: h any ability he might have had
to use "powers of office" effectively castrated.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu>
the goal here is
to do maximal damage
to
the system. <<
This. On my misdemeanor charge which it was suggest I settle organizational incompetence on
the part of
the police and prosecution seems
to be scuttling whatever case
they may or may not have had. Because people normally plea evidence was never collected or lost according
to intel. Alleged "victim" is reportedly now a joke subject
to
taunts from coworkers wit
mircea_popescu: and yes, it's a choice even if you didn't get
to make it.
mircea_popescu: nobody said you get
to make all
the choices you might wish
to.
mircea_popescu: turning back on one';s choices later is not another's problem. i am not held
to explain why
the guy
that changed his mind failed both ways.
mircea_popescu: anyway. see
the married men article.
they who wish
to be exonrated left,long ago.
those who stay ALREADY MADE
the choice
to max damage.
mircea_popescu: but broadly, "if
the rule of law didn't suck, or if it did and nobody'd bother showing it - what
then ?"
mircea_popescu: oleander blosom sees
to it
that's
the last
time YOU're running anywhere.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: oleander blosom doesn't run outof your mouth, plant itself back on
tree.
BingoBoingo: This is why for my still
to be litigated misdemeanor charge attorney is still working off of his flat $150 pre-trial fee.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform me
too.
the problem is -
this was one of
the more successful ones.
mircea_popescu: "what's
the point of donating - prolly go straight
to a lawyer snake anyway"
mircea_popescu: but
THEY know what
they're doing.
they are doing exactly
tyhis : make
the chumps helpless.
mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> Pure chumpatron
to drain actual Ulbricht supporters of resources << and
the fact
that kid would sign off on
this - pretty disgraceful.
mircea_popescu: "this program does nothing" "yes, but it
takes some
time - like any other program!"
mircea_popescu: this is perhaps not painfully obvious
to you on account of some version of
the memory hole effect, but it can not be readily put into code,
the degree of braindamage. perhaps a field full of gotos with no other instructions
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and
the dratel example is particularly on point. what
that man did was
the equivalent of a bitdaytrade "platform".
mircea_popescu: anyway. people who actually magic away problems, in any field, name
their own
terms.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: and i wouldn't give 50k
to random unknown schmuck without a wot for
the obvious reasons, regardless what
they can or could do.
mircea_popescu: apparently
they'd have
to bake a whole new silicone process.
BingoBoingo: Pure chumpatron
to drain actual Ulbricht supporters of resources
BingoBoingo: Lawyers who can reliably contain problems don't const $maxint.
The only lawyers who charge $maxint aren't charging for
their lawyering, but marketing. Hence Ulbricht hiring
the maliciously incompetent Dratel snake.
assbot: Logged on 25-06-2015 00:44:04; mircea_popescu: anyway. lawyering is only "different" because of your perception. most lawyers die in debt, still not having paid
their college costs
assbot: Logged on 25-06-2015 00:52:54; mircea_popescu: and so here is
the (designed, by
the way! deliberately, by
the way!) impasse before
the free world : one percent of
the money spent on $profession actually goes
to ~the individual members of $profession~, and
then of
that, 99% goes
to
the display monkeys, who are five people, and
the remainder however many split
the remainder 1%, which generally means
they pay
to participate.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile, i'll listen sympathetically
to any programmer
that can't feed himself ; and i'll be amused at any programmer
that "but oprah!".
the field's over
there, and it
takes all comers. don't mind
the manure.
mircea_popescu: because
their 2bn is conditionally
theirs on
the understanding not
that it won't get used "for
terrorism",
mircea_popescu: not like
they can spend
two billion
to buy a hundred
thousand aks and ammo for
them and shoot
the whole charade into
the ground
mircea_popescu: and yes
the
trillion spent also means five people got
two billion a pop give or
take
to be paraded across
the country with a large jam
tomorrow sign affixed.
mircea_popescu: and yes,
the
trillion spent means
the govt got
to offset 990 billion off another whatever indescript entry in its ledger,
mircea_popescu: and with math,
too : if social expenditure for field is one
trillion, and
the headcount employed is one million,
that means one million get
to divy up a hundred million,
thus making a whooping 100 a head.
that's not even
the fabled dollar a day.
mircea_popescu: then coders (unlike doctors! or lawyers! and
the lawyers would JUMP at
the chance, if it were somehow feasible - but so far it's only feasible in banking and finance, mostly) get
the option
to work for equity, but
mircea_popescu: and so here is
the (designed, by
the way! deliberately, by
the way!) impasse before
the free world : one percent of
the money spent on $profession actually goes
to ~the individual members of $profession~, and
then of
that, 99% goes
to
the display monkeys, who are five people, and
the remainder however many split
the remainder 1%, which generally means
they pay
to participate.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> once you discover
the hidden variable -
that most of
the creatures masquerading as 'people' are actually apes - you are left without one side of
the equation << Ah,
the Roof problem. Rook shot up nine respectable civilized folk. If he really cared
to address his precieved problem his
target ought
to have been a crack house.
