the girly in discussion once she's 17.5
mircea_popescu: "oh in order

mircea_popescu: the notion
that future you asks past you anything at all is very 16yo-ish female in kabul sort of
thought. it's not how it works.
mircea_popescu: i wonder if aiming
to be a spherical chicken makes one
transfat ?
kakobrekla: jurov> alf now requires hard vacuum
to live? < lmao
mircea_popescu: yes,
the best dreams start with a
twisted version of reality.
mircea_popescu: that's
the exact problem in discussion here. you're freely mixing cartoons and footage, for a very lsd-looking example.

to get anywhere by simply following your own mental narrative in circles.
mircea_popescu: you know, naggum had a very unflattering piece re
this approach, alf.
mircea_popescu: because if we're doing
the entire "here's some random shit i came up with, do planning for it", might as well.

torr vacuum providers

these
things anywhere
jurov: they surely are doing
things
that need hard vacuum in shenzen. maybe even more
than in wash dc

to shenzen and seem
to be happy
there without atomic dirigibles. how so?
jurov: you refuse
to understand
jurov: that when i move
there, will provide some basic information how
to function
jurov: also, i don't get how anyone in
this age can *not* have some foreign acquaintances
that one can be sure
to not
throw him under
the bus
☟︎ mats: folks regularly catch bullet for
theft of much less
than 1mn

to
the culture shock
