punkman: also, I'm not gonna care about Zimbabwe bezzle,

Adlai: ugh. several of irl peers work
as salespeople, and justify this
as their response to bezzle... "we get preyed on, so we prey on others"
cazalla: go to school, do your 2+2, watch cartoons, use ipad, earn marks form shitty ass teachers who for some reason or other get to depict student
as A+ or F
cazalla: already live
as if on borrowed time
cazalla: i can;t think of anything worse than my son taking what i own just
as he hits his late teens, early 20s
chetty: but I for one would not trade it. And ya twice
as bad when other depend on you
Adlai: is/isil/isis/etc should rebrand

cazalla: ya fucking hung
as in necked or i go and prostitute myself on a part time basis to keep lights on
chetty: but thats the point, most humans are pretty lazy,
as long
as they can hide and live off others, they will

as bad
cazalla: i never fucking had more than a broken ass discussion with him in english, his broken ass polish/german/ russian and yet the dude who slept in a fucking barn
as a kid had better prospects coming here in here in here in the 50s than me and the missus do combined

cazalla: but more, i wish i could compute so
as not to get owned
BingoBoingo: In USia "drugs" are often used
as a pretext by USG for taking nice things from people who have nice things.
decimation: well, the bigger picture is that usg is not going to be able to threaten russia or china
as much
as it used to
mircea_popescu: decimation basically they're really desperate to maintain
as much projection into future budgets, but in point of fact... maintaining both a carrier and a nuclear powered sub programme isn't likely.
mircea_popescu: mats it becomes insanely more expensive to quiet them down
as time passes.
mircea_popescu: <decimation> doh "
As two RAF Typhoon <<< news to exactly no-one
decimation: doh "
As two RAF Typhoon fighters were scrambled on Wednesday evening to escort Russian long range bombers flying off Cornwall, military chiefs said that the UK “could not cope” with an all-out attack
as our defences have been “decimated”. "
mircea_popescu: "On 25 July 2007, Prinz von Anhalt was allegedly approached by three women he described
as attractive while sitting in his Rolls-Royce in Southern California. They asked him to pose for pictures with them, at which point one of the women robbed him at gunpoint, taking his car keys, jewelry, wallet, driver's license and all his clothes. According to Prinz von Anhalt, his assailants bound him and placed him in handcuffs,
assbot: Logged on 10-02-2015 22:36:45; asciilifeform: let's do a 'trichotomy' on the netbsd thing.
as far
as i can see, there are three and only three possibilities in a case like this (i am deliberately not including the forth, of my being a muppet.) 1) whole orchestra -never- worked 2) once worked, but a sniveling shitgnome fucked with the docs 3) docs were once correct and described a working sys, but a sniveling shitgnome changed the code 'because pr
punkman: "When asked, "How many husbands have you had?", she was quoted
as responding, "You mean other than my own?""
NewLiberty: Sure, the presumption is that you do it
as a pawn shop.
NewLiberty: It sounds like a good business idea though. Send your bitcoin to bitcoinpawn, get some fiat loan with it
as collateral. Pay back the fiat with interest to reclaim your bitcoins. Miss a payment and you have to buy them back at the retail price.
ascii_field: what's the diff << if you mention bitcoin in a pawn shop here, and aren't thrown out
as a nut, you're dealing with -an individual- rather than an institution under any kind of legal constraint
NewLiberty: They give secured loans with the arbitrary stuff of value
as collateral. When the borrower doesn't pay the stuff is sold.
ascii_field: the idea,
as i understand, is that price is slowly lowered (
as debt carries on) until the thing is gone
ascii_field: yes they exist here. regulated
as tightly
as gun shops (in fact, the two are often combined into one establishment)
cazalla: jurov, and i don't mean your use of it
as a metaphor but the thing itself has me interested
mircea_popescu: people work
as tellers in pond shops for minimum wage. there's no big deal humint involved.
mike_c: not quite
as good
as fiat, but what can you do :)
assbot: The eagle never lost so much time
as when he submitted to learn from the crow.
The20YearIRCloud: I check in once in a while here and still idle on a few IRC chats, granted I guess slack does a IRC connection
as well
gribble: The20YearIRCloud was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 10 weeks, 3 days, 22 hours, 58 minutes, and 55 seconds ago: <The20YearIRCloud> Big thing has been to have em look over all the financial documents
as we're filing taxes for 2014 next month and I didn't want to submit till they had a good idea of it.
ascii_field: BingoBoingo: once you turn said pNohe on from your home, it may
as well be registered to your face
NewLiberty: I almost became 'unbanked' this week. I've had >10 accounts terminated by banks this year. It seems with the latest guidance from the Fed, banks categorize 'precious metal dealers' in the same bin
as 'arms traders' and 'ponzi operators'.
ascii_field: go and buy so much
as a spool of 0805 resistors with btc.
mircea_popescu: " machines are exactly
as 'loyal'
as their operator is clever and conscientious - men are not."
mircea_popescu: "Here's one that even The Onion would reject
as too blatantly ridiculous: American right-wing radio and TV clown Glenn Beck believes that Sean Smith aka Vile Rat, the EVE Online diplomat who was killed earlier this month during the attack on the US embassy in Benghazi, was actually a CIA agent, relaying communications to his fellow undercover agents at Something Awful."
☟︎ ascii_field: not a guarantee of defeat, sure, but machines are exactly
as 'loyal'
as their operator is clever and conscientious - men are not.
thestringpuller: pete_dushenski:
as is the nature of "becoming known" to a plug so you can re-up in the future.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field> mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and then << the general concept being that people will find themselves under so much pressure
as the thing advances, that marginals (ie, people who depend on paychecks etc) are prolly in a very weak position to participate anyway.
ascii_field: danielpbarron: you could find the bug in the netbsd ramdisk build script
as well
as i could
assbot: Logged on 17-02-2015 03:22:43; asciilifeform: nubbins`: what state's your beast in now << stuck on crafting the ramdisk (in-ram root fs) for netbsd.
as of a week ago. haven't the time, presently, to do anything
pete_dushenski: thestringpuller: "The overbearing regulatory climate in the US for exchanging fiat for Bitcoin seems to have similar consequences
as its War on Drugs." << curious how you get here logically
mike_c: yeah "meant". otherwise it fails
as business
nubbins`: i taught my roomie about CAs yesterday using them
as an example
mike_c: most collusion isn't
as profitable
as one might think (if at all)
mircea_popescu: "no you schmuck, you couldn't.
as proven by ? didn't."
mircea_popescu: a decade later or w/e, the world can be
as full of "i too could have been in"
as it pleases, for all the good it'll do anyone.
mircea_popescu: not that i mind the arrangement... but in absolute fairness it IS stupid
as all fuck.
mircea_popescu: my point is... they who tell the story and then act on the story are responsible toanswer
as to their own consistency.
mircea_popescu: "A YouTube representative called this revision a clarification of its existing policy, one that occurred late last year, intended to prevent advertiser conflicts and ensure viewers don’t feel bombarded by ads. Paul Kontonis, executive director of the Global Online Video Association, however framed it
as an explicit change that prevents YouTube stars and multichannel networks from working prominent sponsor logos and i
decimation: another good one from the same podcast: " A man named Northly[?] came--he was the Executive Vice President of the North Carolina Peanut Association. Wonderful guy. He stood up
as this conference was ending, and he said, 'Let me tell you about the peanut program. There's only two people in America who understand how the peanut program works. It's my job to keep it that way.'"
decimation: "I can be a slut - it's okay
as long
as I don't fuck a nazi!"
mircea_popescu: In addition, anti-fascism was never to have
as cheap
as today. Previously, he could cost you your life, today it costs no more than lip service among peers - and heard to this, the exclusive circle of the upright, decent, brave. The fighters against law form the peerage of enlightened society. Or even a shot polemical: Here is an indulgence trade takes place; the moral superiority can be acquired simply by joining the
☟︎ mircea_popescu: <decimation> "nothing feels
as good
as fighting rightists << somebody's bound to sooner or later discover sexual intimacy and move on.
decimation: "nothing feels
as good
as fighting rightists
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform iatrogenic << nah, my money's on a yet unidentified pollutant from industrial practice. something in consumer products, from the shitty gelatin kraft/unilver uses
as the basis of all their "products" - really flavoured goop, to soaps plastics w/e.
trinque: this idea that one can identify
as anything, plant, mineral, sports mascot
cazalla: mircea_popescu, ever come across gender dysphoria or same story
as autism?
trinque: gotta have
as many people on govt sanctioned amphetamines
as possible
trinque: I suspect it's
as adhd was/is, an easy way to prescribe drugs
cazalla: the 90s gave us so many adhd kids that it was no longer fashionable.. the new fashion with autism is that one can pronounce that their kid is "on the spectrum"
as if it makes them somewhat special
mircea_popescu:
as a kid growing up, i had contact with... thousands, prolly at the outset 10k kids. in the sense of actually having seen them with mine own eyes.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field it is not enough that folks fork, they must understand -why- they fork, and who the enemy is << would not go that far, personally. just
as long
as people act sanely, they're good enough.
ascii_field: imagine if folks went to war
as they go to 'mosh pit'
mircea_popescu: imagine alf! a memory scheme which allows you to shoot at the memory units, and add more
as you wish without kernel panic.
mircea_popescu: most of which don't even exist like coinmelon (refered to by mp
as coinmuon bc of the sign at the doorbell) << ahahaha wut, wait, the mystery is demystified ?
mircea_popescu:
as long
as the industiral output you use holds no ip, it's good.
mircea_popescu: what i mean is : currently, the fabs regard a printer that ruins 1% of the sheets
as disastrous.
danielpbarron: the drive popped out
as a result of the fall, and its connecting bracket also came out a bit; but it's setting new best height now, so all is fine i suppose
ascii_field: pete_dushenski: all mobile phones use toy crypto - and,
as if this were not enough, call is carried
as plaintext on the telco wire in the end
ascii_field: you'll see soon enough when gemalto (
as if nothing happened, remains in business of course, like all usg pseudo-industrial ops)
pete_dushenski: but
as with nazi case, the tune can change if a suitable use case is found
