jessie_: a win win situation
jessie_: how much a girlie earn for beign enslaved?
jessie_: if i do NOT hand out the privkeys, well, i will sacrifice my dick, suicide a couple of days after, but also being acclamated as the "moar deflation guy" on reddit and gain a lot of karma points

a111: Logged on 2017-10-25 15:01 jessie_: so, i will keep plain and simple: if I wake up bound with a thick rope on a table, find out that i'm kidnapped, then some angry and sadic russian appears and yells to me "give me the private keys or i'll cut off your dick". What is the most effective exit move aimed to keep both the btc and the possibility to happily ejaculate again?
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-25#1728554 << no beggar who wasn't a retard from california on his first day out "public arts"ing ever put down an alms bowl without some money in it. ☝︎
asciilifeform: it mildly annoys asciilifeform that he provided these vermin with a self-setting table cloth for years on end

mircea_popescu: whatever it may be, working out to be a boxer, reading poetry, picking your nose. daily or getout.
lobbes: <davout> there's this, and also the necessity of learning new things, very often people get stuck playing the same things, which mostly reinforces defects, instead of seeking new and different stuff to work on for a bit << this makes sense. Explains why I notice my improvising getting 'stale' after a few consecutive days of practicing only to be 'revitalized' after a break. Almost helps to clear that mental buffer of 'go-to musical phrases'
davout: language mixing is a thing for me too, i sounded like an absolute retard trying to speak dutch after one year of full-time english

lobbes: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-24#1728338 << in my experience with guitar, frequency is more important for muscle memory building (and general finger strength building). I've found that even 5 minutes per day tends to be more effective than, say, a single 2 hour session per week ☝︎
BingoBoingo: And in still other news, SWAT team and feds were in town over what was apparently a very methy stabbing.
mircea_popescu: i suppose its hard for a jew to grok the wordcount point.
mircea_popescu: they may be slow on the uptake, but their owners are not. a franchise is 100% made out of sucking the right cock, and pantsuitism just turned clitty.
mircea_popescu: jew coverage as to how this is concerning but doesn't matter and people still give a shit about them abundent enough ?

shinohai: http://archive.is/HfUof <<< " Emin Gun Sirer, a Cornell University associate professor in the computer science department who is a Tezos technical adviser, said he continues to believe the network is still “technically sound.”
shinohai: Well my values are different than most. Ownership of the box alone justifies trb node, which is worthy of a total of 0,16 BTC
shinohai: What a lucky number, BingoBoingo
asciilifeform: as a kid it vexxed me, i thought it had to do with страдать , suffer
mircea_popescu: the robotzi "sa te ghetzalesc pe limba???" item is a tongue in cheek reference of exactly this. the word doesn't exist, but if you're a civilised romanian which means born in transylvania and aware enough of hungarian to know how they say sperm,
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the other major item contributing to the humor is that they use the (originally latin, now romanian) mechanism of functional language. so they will take a slavonic root, and derive it in the romanian manner with no shits given
asciilifeform: strada is a germanism neh
mircea_popescu: diana_coman not the same usage, yes, which makes their usage intensional, ie stylistically relevant, which it's why it's a joke.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform they're like present day crocodiles : not a sort of fallen man, but a different evolution of the same ancient parent.
mircea_popescu: im serious though, it's likely old slavonic as a source. certainly not russian import
diana_coman: I had a few colleagues at uni bucharest; re language my observation was that they mixed ro and ru (not words per se but rather languages as a whole) to such degree that result was at worst not-understandable, at best hysterical indeed; sort of saying "ulita" (because of Russian "ulita" obv) to huge boulevard comes to mind but it's not the only thing
mircea_popescu: and generally it was a great place to buy a coupla girls for a dozen lycra stockings, back in the 90s. by now...
mircea_popescu: the current moldavia was a sort of baltimore 20 years ago.
mircea_popescu: anyway. moldavia doesn't stand a fucking chance, on its own. it's a sort of argentina, no industry whatsoever, no young people left to slave on the farms, it ain't got jack.
mircea_popescu: amusingly, the ro govt was very lax with their immigration ; until euros got all pissy about it, so they closed the border. a coupla years later... euros decided everyone must take in random syrians.
mircea_popescu: was good for many merry hours once upon a time.
mircea_popescu: well to this day i expect the ancient amusement of "get a moldovan hooker at a party, make her strip and talk" still continues.
asciilifeform: finns are ~chukchas and not a iota slav tho
mircea_popescu: and copiii is not a triphtong in this sense.
mircea_popescu: anyway, as far as the foreigner speaker is concerned, the pons asinorum is mastering the ɨ/i and ə/a dychotomies. takes failure rate from 100% to maybe 60% just liek that. then the dypthongs/tripthongs/quadriphtongs (yes, romanian has that). contrary to intuition, the special consonants are not difficult.
mircea_popescu: (that was a mp-ization of an 1850s b p hasdeu item originally)
mircea_popescu: mother hen should have sold injured chick to a pedophile, flew first class with the other one off the dough.
asciilifeform: ( any other rotaku here ? ben_vulpes ? trinque ? who's a humlang junkie but not learned ro yet )
asciilifeform: this should stoke asciilifeform's rotakuistics for a spell.
mircea_popescu: closed borders are a mixed blessing. all the shit has to be "translated", etc.
mircea_popescu: o right, silvia chicos did a bunch of them.
asciilifeform: lol, diana_coman was this a ro version of 'спокойной ночи, малыши' megahit?!
diana_coman: hmmm, asciilifeform I bought for my kid a set of cds, again radio romania old transmissions, "noapte buna, copii" ; tbh though those are 5-10 minutes sort of things and at times (now) I find them a tad annoying
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, heh, the old vinyls from my childhood are still in a certain attic in ploiesti...
mircea_popescu: diana_coman if he finds the old greuceanu etc series for a buck a piece and buys a few buckets he'll have perfectly legitimate us house's worth of collectibles.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what you want is an "anticariat", buy old "electrecord" vinyls. he did a series of kids stories, excellent.
diana_coman: actually since you are in Ro, you can look at bookshops for cds/dvds on the topic ; iirc there were quite a few at some point
mircea_popescu: blowing this distinction is a major general failure in romanian.
asciilifeform: prolly only cure is actually snarfing in a few kilometres of ro voice track.
mircea_popescu: language is full of it, it's like a fundamental mechanism of romanian. ii da / ɨi də/ (he gives [it] to him) vs dai-i /dəii/ (give them to him)
asciilifeform: ( which counts, sure, but i was looking for a serious boobytrap where unwary noob bites the wax tadpole )
asciilifeform: failing that, a hernia
asciilifeform: asciilifeform read it as-so upstack. and pictured some sort of old crone, in a tram, for some reason
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but in bonus lulz : hanbot, who is not a native speaker, confronted earlier with it guessed it's some sort of spoke or knob like off a door.
mircea_popescu: this'd require a large study and the largeness will implicitly make it fail through publicity.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-24 18:27 mircea_popescu: actually it is a fine example for linguistics, because, get this, native speaker presented with it would generally GUESS, based on PURE PHONETICS, that it has something to do with "being in the way" or "standing up inconveniently" or somesuch,.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-24 20:17 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what;s to disasm ? just a succession of letters.
ben_vulpes: it's assault when creepazons do it, and otherwise it's the normal mating dance. most dudes are creepazons, so to regurgitate a popescuism, "unless the bar is 80% girls and the few guys were invited explicitly", american bars will continue to be full of creepy low value male meat.
mircea_popescu: translation more a work of "this very talented youngster can't grammar properly, but here's a normal transcription" than anything.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what;s to disasm ? just a succession of letters. ☟︎
BingoBoingo: And in research at the fiat/Bitcoin interface it appears there is a Brazilian single person limited liability corporation, the Empresa Individual de Responsabilidade Limitada (EIRELI)
davout: i'm just a private pilot, when i fly people for money, i'm the one paying
davout: becoming a professional airline pilot is on the list, and if I don't do it now I'll soon be too old
diana_coman: if you are very curious you might also want to check the publisher: iirc many are in fact published in Chisinau (Moldova) and sold in Ro because cheap compared to local; iirc I saw quite a few books following this route and reflecting it, as it were
asciilifeform: brain-melting, i expected 'we loathe all things su' to definitely extend to such a thing, but go figure.
asciilifeform: ( upstack, in art gallery, was 'pay extra buck, take photos', so on a lark asciilifeform to pet 'ok pay a buck' . result - in every hall different old broad hisses when sees camera, but wave the ordinary scrap of paper with 'foto' scribbled , and they disperse. i imagine locals are wise to this, bring own scrap of paper when they feel like photoing in gallery... )
asciilifeform: chomsky (?) had a piece aboht this
mircea_popescu: there is such a thing as a phonetic meaning encoding, this item proves.
mircea_popescu: actually it is a fine example for linguistics, because, get this, native speaker presented with it would generally GUESS, based on PURE PHONETICS, that it has something to do with "being in the way" or "standing up inconveniently" or somesuch,. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: (this is a synthetic romanian word, uses each of the special letters exactly once. it didn't exist naturally, but it SOUNDS like it'd be a thing, like "chioara" (one eyed female) or such ; so was defined by contest cca 2008)
a111: Logged on 2017-10-24 18:13 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i very much doubt there can be two items called "museum of communist consumer" under a bar called lejer in the tiny temeswar.
shinohai: If davout goes to Madagascar, please troll the locals by walking about in a plague doctor mask.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-21 23:26 mircea_popescu: and here's some lulz for asciilifeform's private "art ownerhsip" collection : femme nue couchee, a courbet knockoff of the maja desnuda goya painting was looted in 45 by the soviets, who displayed it in the manner of truckers, which is to say on a truck tarpaulin. the item was thought lost, but it surfaced in 2000. the owner (possession is 100% of the law!) was accused of being unfit for ownership, as he happened to be slovak
mircea_popescu: whole of usg has like a developer and a half to carry the whole load of endless "agencies", mastercard sees five minutes of developer every full moon.
mircea_popescu: and lulz at mastercard, pretending as if they've not just one, but a whole fucking NETWORK of developers.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i very much doubt there can be two items called "museum of communist consumer" under a bar called lejer in the tiny temeswar. ☟︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-24#1728063 >> 'By providing a permissioned platform to our network of developers and partners, our Blockchain platform delivers...' ☝︎
BingoBoingo: Would be a great place to be a Netflix.
BingoBoingo: Of course it could also be a gambit to get the gringo to offer to invest in some undersea cable.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: The getting them to distinguish is a difficulty as well. Apparently the Mandarin/English language duo is not conducive to Brain finesse as per 2014-ish discussion in pidgins. The Veit Congs were more effective communicators.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-24#1728097 << oddly, this was a very different museum. but similar idea, tho i suspect it was made by seekrit communist, was full of abstract algebra textbooks, numbertheory, Kvant, catpic embroideries, nostalgic ☝︎
davout actually left tiny mauritian island last sunday, in the process of moving to a much larger, less civilised, island
BingoBoingo: And today I wake up to a bunch of emails from different contacts in HK all telling me that for the necessary international connectivity... They need new peering links.
