trinque: felipelalli: could very well have been, though I'm going to have to have a talk with runit as to why it wasn'
t immediately restarted. perhaps it was running slow for a while before death

pete_dushenski: does he go to the casino and play lotteries because he thinks 'i can'

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> here's a bit of truth for one bb : "Note that when scienticians talk about, say, the increase in alcoholism, they never go back before WWII, otherwise they'd have to label most ancient Greeks, all Vikings and everyone in colonial America as alcoholics. "Well," they'll explain, "it wasn'
t until then we started rigorously treating people as data points." " << Or the society is broken as illustrated by the differing

mircea_popescu: in any case : an effectual immune response keeps this particular virus well contained. its efficiency is predicated on a well functioning liver because of peculiar synthesis pathways that are narrow and easily stress that i don'

mircea_popescu: i don'

mircea_popescu: at McDonalds and the system gets another data point confirming it is right. I hope the parallel between this and anything written by Solzhenitsyn is immediately obvious, if not, read anything by Solzhenitsyn. The Matrix doesn'
t need you, but it will offer you a free pass if you help get the other batteries in line."
mircea_popescu: ng to do with addiction. The reinforcement is from the outside to comply with this idiocy: say you party down one weekend, then a random drug test at work, oops! So two things can happen, Guess What Happens Next: you could tell the truth that the coke was on her ass and how could you not? doesn'
t make you a bad person; or pretend/admit you're an addict and agree to go to rehab. So it's unanimous? You keep your job

t know greek. how about penelope, not enough agency ?
mircea_popescu: and psyche is supposed to be a fucking object. that is THE POINT of that particular story (fuck you myth legend bs words you don'
t even comprehend. story is good enough for pedestrians).
mircea_popescu: in other news, "There are, in fact, fairy tales about women with agency, and your article would have been even stronger if you knew them (but it's understandable that you don'

mircea_popescu: the problem is he isn'
t fucking applying it to himself!
mircea_popescu: n as customary.... who they are. America is a branded-identity nation, which means hearing yourself speak in not-your accent, with not-your vocabulary sounds very not-you, which is why when an American tries to speak French he feels self-conscious, but the Frenchman hearing it feels you aren'

mircea_popescu: makes shit like "Short of cauterizing your own genitals, nothing seems like it would change who you are like speaking in an-other's language. Blech, I'd rather wear someone else's underwear, no thanks, I'll take the 12 credits but no way am I retaining anything. "Well, science says you lose the ability to learn languages as you get older."
