t really piss on the parquet. it was not our fault!"

ascii_field: ;;later tell ben_vulpes re: article: usg won'
t 'hand out cash' for the same reason that comcast et al doesn'
t actually promise 1Gb/s at 100% dutycycle. (the rest of it, i have failed to make sense of)
mircea_popescu: well, sadly, i can'
t use any of the stuff you produced so far. going through this latest one, it's still easier / faster for me to do the whole translation than to correct it.
ascii_field: gnarly ball o'shit language, doesn'
t want to rhyme at all.
gabrielradio: but in the case of the poem, time isn'
t the issue, and if he deems it unfit for translation in his own hand, i doubt it would make sense for me to try & translate it
gabrielradio: not sure about the poem tho. the way i saw this whole translation thing was that mircea_popescu wanted the ro articles translated because he didn'
t want to spend the time to do it himself, so that's where i would come in
shinohai: Just hadn'
t read that article yet.
pete_dushenski: i'm always amazed how many people don'

ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: d'you recall which piece of ballas' had the line about the "if it weren'
t this highly credentialed person, it'd be someone indistinguishable from him"?
mircea_popescu: the thing being... if it's any good it won'
t be going anywhere, and if it goes away just means you saved a penny.

mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski i wouldn'
t trust whatever a reason.com reporter misunderstood on a topic he imagined.
ascii_field: wasn'
t there a thing where chicago police dept. had one.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller if i wanted to be a usian slumlord, i'd buy a decrepit building, hold auditions for (nude) black women under 25, on the premise that they get to stay there free, but they don'
t get to say no to any cock.
pete_dushenski: thestringpuller: not a bad gig, really. actually does more for 'the people' than gov'
t ever did.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: and you can make it norse! swap out the
t's for ð's.
mircea_popescu: "he could have at least apologized so i could say "hey, someone doesn'
t apologize if they didn'
t do anything" instead of this weak sauce "they don'
t get arrested if they didn'
t do anything".
pete_dushenski: i agree that it doesn'
t exist per se in practical terms, too expensive to implement, but property 'owners' are cattle
pete_dushenski: well, it's the same thing in the sense that u.s. wanted tightly controlled and self-advantageous 'free trade'. canada complied. argentina didn'

mircea_popescu: "oh but it wasn'
t on reddit". of course it wasn'
t on fucking reddit.

t in any sense germane.
mircea_popescu: (you realise "goat country" is a proxy for disability right ? we don'
t call them cruthces, we call them mechanical mobility aids! )

t even judge you could survive on your own in buenos aires.
mircea_popescu: "give me an example of X in non-X and i'll pretend i mean something else by non-X. see, you can'

phf: doesn'

mircea_popescu: "Here's what happened on 9/12 at my hospital, and what happens in so many cases of high-emotion altruism: they take the day off in order to go to NYC, but then don'

shinohai: I don'

mircea_popescu: and this isn'

☟︎ mircea_popescu: phf> i suspect that failures in this case are seen as being on bleeding edge, sort of meta-meta-maker << maybe the truth is, the people who buy teslas don'

ascii_field: to borrow from old west, 'ain'

mircea_popescu: No they weren'
t. Leaving aside morality, cheating on your wife means that you haven'

mircea_popescu: "How the hell come she can'

t. She sees something fake, then something "real" underneath, and falls for him; you see something fake, stop there, and hate him.
mircea_popescu: Those who don'
t come to it from exactly the right perspective are infuriated, "this guy is a douchebag!" You think you see something more real than she does, but you aren'
t supposed to see more deeply-- she is. You are supposed to be infuriated-- that's why she looks more deeply. She doesn'
