to use
that 31st cpu etc
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: ECU firmware license with purchase of
tractor apparently
ascii_lander: mircea_popescu: in precisely
the same way as crapple sells license
to operate iPnohe,
toyota -
to operate
toyota, etc. and
the rest of
the firmwarederpological world
ascii_lander: and one ought not
to expect
to hear any 'official' discussion
thereof.
mircea_popescu: lol john deere selling "licenses
to operate"
tractors now ?
ascii_lander: point being,
that not only do
things widely known
to leak - leak, but also other
things
ascii_lander: betcha somebody got
the
traditional 'ransom scam' for instance.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: hopper full of
telephone pole segments was my favorite. I have no idea what serious advantafe
they were aiming for
there
ascii_lander: mod6, ben_vulpes, mike_c: note
to usaschwitz inmates: 10x
the usual frequency of scam callz
to my u.s. phone, during voyage. somewhere
there is a db of folks who went off
the reservation. don't be surprised if phones in your social graph were similarly
targeted.
BingoBoingo: It's interesting
the ways
that sports men and women weaponize
these
things
that evade
the inspectors and referees until
the machines break
ascii_lander: BingoBoingo:
two worlds. one
that is palpable with unarmed eye, and
the one
that matters.
ascii_lander: hence
the importance,
to
the buggers, of nailing down 'no, you don't get
to examine or change
the fw'
ascii_lander: BingoBoingo: esp.
the
type
that matters,
the robotic/self-driving one
BingoBoingo: Tractor Pull is a phenomenon like Hamas
that attracts an strong overlap of people with engineering
talent and a love of firearms.
BingoBoingo: Things change when dealing with people who
throw additional motors on a chassis more enthusiastically
than AMD
throws more core on a die
BingoBoingo: I honestly could see
the
Tractor Pull lobby and John Deere coming
to blows over
this
ascii_lander: (e.g., folks eating wrong-handed foods
to diet and shitting selves as per 'olestra' , etc)
ascii_lander: the lulzy part is

taken seriously ?

two non-human plaintiffs"

BingoBoingo: Springtime in Illinois is more precarious. Sure right now
the weather is beautiful and
the
tulips are nearing
the end of
their blooming, but... at any moment
the sky could change its mind and
try
to smote me.
mike_c: mircea_popescu:how's ny mike_c ? << beautiful day
today. springtime in manhattan is not a bad
thing.
BingoBoingo: Other B-vitamins, nicotinic acid and cyanocobalamin far safer and necessary for
the endurance drinker
BingoBoingo: A little bit of folate does quite a bit of good, but
too much is playing with fire outside of pregnancy situations.
mircea_popescu: absent folate, all sorts of neural
tube defects arise (spina bifida chief among em), and
the absence kinda has
to be remedied a week before conception.
mircea_popescu: but for
the record :
the case for dosing women, especially
the sort likely
to have kids unexpectedly (young, addicted, poor) and
the sort likely
to be depleted (oyung, addicted, poor) is extremely compelling.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: it's like... ooookay, i'm sure your careful approach
to intake of substances will change
things.
mircea_popescu: but it IS one of
the amusing marks of ignorance (to me), because
the derps all concerned about flouridated water do not seem
to know about
the "fortified" milk and
the folated flour.
lobbes now feels compelled
to read flour labels before buying
☟︎ BingoBoingo: The batch of kids who were expected
to make it another six months without
treatment were lucky (or unlucky) if
they made it past
three weeks on
the
trial
mircea_popescu: i'm with BingoBoingo : folate is
toxic in large doses, especially
to males. and
they're being dosed
to all shit out of seemingly innocuous stuff (like flour) because hey, women *might* need it.
mircea_popescu: Pierre_Rochard you know
the very notion
that someone
thinks
themselves gay and jewish... it's like...
the quadriplegic swimmer or something.
the 98 yo beauty queen
☟︎ BingoBoingo: <lobbes> I wonder if
this is because
the people
taking
these supplements are
trying
to offset all
the processed crap
they are eating << Or because folate is like gasoline for
the living.
The first chemotherapy
trials for Leukemia
tried Folic Acid as
the drug agent. Interesting reads came out of
that.
mircea_popescu: pro
tip : disqus is like
the yellow star in
the jewish ghetto.
mircea_popescu: heh. me wonders why exactly is it
that
the wp derps are willing
to coordinate vulnerability "fixes" by "upgrading" with
the sucuri derps.

chetty: well most of

the 'pseudo-food' being at least a contributing factor

tradition can be whatever we want it

pete_dushenski: "Heschel felt
that
to put bread on
the seder plate would be
to accept
that Jewish lesbians and gay men violate Judaism like hametz [leavened food] violates Passover. So at her next seder, she chose an orange as a symbol of inclusion of gays and lesbians and others who are marginalized within

pete_dushenski: "Susannah Heschel, a well-known Jewish feminist scholar, was introduced
to an early feminist Haggadah
that suggested adding a crust of bread on
the seder plate, as a sign of solidarity with Jewish lesbians (which was intended
to convey
the idea
that
there’s as much room for a lesbian in Judaism as
there is for a crust of bread on
the seder plate)."
