cazalla: don't have em, not for a while, fucked em off given
the situation here
cazalla: i guess more so danger,
they have issues but whatever i liked it so whatevers i link what i want
mircea_popescu: is
that jpg proposing
the derpy chicks above are somehow dangerous ?
cazalla: and
to
think how bad i was jonesing
to hit
that lol
cazalla: (not
that i really give a shit
these days)
cazalla: davout, well my missus has one of
thise 20mb fat asses
davout: cazalla: which do you prefer? bumping blocks
to 20mb, or shrinking
them
to 100kb?
cazalla: which do you prefer, great ass or
tits
mircea_popescu: i had noticed before how extremely rare it is for a great ass
to find itself on a pretty face.
cazalla: u know, butterface, all
those gifs and no face, odds are good you'll be paperbagging
that cutue
cazalla: cutie? i see no face in
that gif, could be butter for all i know
davout: mircea_popescu: ah, i misread,
thought
the 1mn
thing was about gavin
davout: mircea_popescu: lol when was
that?
mircea_popescu: anyone else remember his "THE BITCOIN COMMUNITY ~must~ give me 1mn BTC
to do stuff I came up with because
that's
the only way IT'll matter!11", or am i
the only one ?
cazalla: davout, i
think he is more likely
to be
trolling
than a canary as you said on /r/bitcoin..
the guy has had his childish
tantrums on bitcointalk before in 40pt font
mircea_popescu: "why did you hit
this man in
the head ?" "i
thought maybe it'd do him good" "why ?" "dunno" judge
thinks it
through "alright, case dismissed. maybe it does do him good."
mircea_popescu: in other words :
the space of possibilities is necessarily and by definition very vast and entirely open.
this however does not make it automatically also interesting.
mircea_popescu: maybe hitler's plan was
to lose
the war, kill himself, and have his idiocy remade by
the winners.
cazalla: mircea_popescu, but
the new ones reak of how can i leverage my succesful random videos with new, non-random random videos with adsense
mircea_popescu: you know, maybe
the shrimp i had earlier and am now digesting REALLY MEANT
to be eaten. it was its plan all along. i fell into its well laid out
trap!
mircea_popescu: cazalla honestly i like
the new boxxy much better. shit she's saying is of course a lot dumber
than before, but at least now it's banal
too. easier
to ignore.
davout: is
that so stupid? not sure if sarcasm
mircea_popescu: you're not about
to introduce your own rendition of
the meta-nsa
theme are you.
davout: i mean, if he's compromised and is actually against raising
the limit, he has
to be happy about it not going
too well, right
davout: cazalla: i can't help
to
think
that if
the guy's really compromised
than he probably feels pretty good about
the way his proposals are going
mircea_popescu: i
think he went from salesman
trying
to impress & get a raise
to salesman desperate
to avoid
the glengarry prize for
third place.
cazalla: and anyway, even if he made a good argument for an increase in
the blocksize, his current proposition differs
to
the incremental increase he suggested only a few months back, can't respect a guy
that secede his position so quickly regardless of merit
mircea_popescu: and speaking of ukraine weird, am i
the only one
to
think Ю́щенко's disappearing act from ukrainian politics is weird ?
the guy was strong enough
to be worth poisoning a decade ago, gets 1% in 2012 ?
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> mircea_popescu:
this comparison was widely made in ru sphere <<
to my [dis]credit, i just came up wiuth it on my own. i guess i should read more.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
there is no discussion about
the difficulty going
to outer space.
decimation: at any rate, as I wrote later, it seems
that
the actual amount of U in
the ground isn't really fully known
decimation: yeah some deuterium spices up
the party
assbot: Logged on 10-05-2015 23:16:02; mircea_popescu:
toaster is kinda dumb, but ceramic
tiles for warm floor is worth doing.
assbot: I
think you drastically overestimate
the military importance of nuclear weapons. on

danielpbarron: 151.0 makes it start
the selection at
the "xii" footnote link

mircea_popescu: this seemed pretty ridiculous at
the
time, and perhaps it is. or perhaps it's part of a playbook, and
the same strategy was later used
to
try and "turn public opinion" in
the ukraine.
mircea_popescu: in unrelated
tinfoil hat fodder : i dunno if anyone remembers
the one
time world came closest
to nuclear war (1983), or
the fate of kal-007.
the
thing is
tho,
the russians at
the
time claimed
the bad flightpath was deliberate provocation, and
that
the cia had warned nixon not
to go with
that flight.
mircea_popescu: also, consider
that a comparison of new nuclear with old coal is pretty stupid. you're not advertising deployument of 1970s soviet nuclear plants. consequently, you don't get
to compare
to 1950s coal plants.
decimation: uranium is heavy; it'll go
to
the bottom.
decimation: well, my favorite criteria are "pollution sits in a pool" rather
than "pollution is spammed over planet's surface"
decimation: so
to be clear, it's your position
that it's better w.r.t.
to "pollution" for electricity
to come from coal vice nuclear fission?
decimation: well,
that's no reason
to piss mercury into
the ocean
mircea_popescu: if
the peons didn't have
the printing folk
to give
them free money,
they wouldn't afford bluefin
tuna.
decimation: plus I like
to eat bluefin
tuna, and coal emissions are ruining it
decimation: "Uranium and
thorium have concentrations of roughly 1 ppm and
decimation: the alternative
to nuclear fission is
to emit radiation via coal burning
mircea_popescu: if
the need isn't
there... i guess go derp on reddit about
things of great interest and matters of great import.
mircea_popescu: if
the need is
there,
the fix is obvious. pay more per btc, so miners get more mining done, so more
txn get in per day.
mircea_popescu: there's a very simple way
to decrease interval between blocks : gavin can just go buy some miners and stfu.
assbot: gavinandresen comments on Please remind me once again why we can't decrease
the
time interval between blocks instead of increasing
their size ... (

decimation: "Compare
this 25 ml per year per person of high-level nuclear waste with
the other
traditional forms of waste we currently dump: municipal waste 517 kg per year per person; hazardous waste 83 kg per year per year"
decimation: That?s
the same volume as 35 olympic swimming pools. "
decimation: than 2 litres. Even when we multiply by 60 million people,
the lifetime vol-
decimation: year, a lifetime?s worth of high-level nuclear waste would amount
to less
decimation: well, sure but it would have been more efficient
to use it at lower enrichment levels in
the first place
mircea_popescu: decimation most of
them use
the
thin walled sphere with boron chain fillings.
they can be safely dismantled.
mircea_popescu: not really, unless it's actually fired,
the stuff can be reclaimed (and has, on a grand scale -
that's what START is really all about)
