asciilifeform: i.e. suddenly 'near the rails' became 'the place to be', and all the land was already owned by the grantees
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: re the rails, i still don't wholly grasp whether the railroad co's in 19th c usa actually robbed anybody, or whether (as seems moar plausible) the whole thing was an early sneak preview of early-bitcoinism
asciilifeform: lol,there was a pause, was there a mp legalization act passed by parliament, then rescinded!?!11
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it wasn't technically expropriation -- iirc it was 1st given away to 'homesteaders' and then 'ungiven' when track was built
asciilifeform: in american 'high end' shops there is, incidentally, product claiming to be 'Ersteklasse', but (largely from asciilifeform's childhood memory) i would say that it is a lie, is actually 'Zweite Klasse' per mircea_popescu's table.
asciilifeform: they compose 'except when they don't', as in the various vdiff inbandism headaches
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: aha, as naggum described in re perlism
asciilifeform: dedicated entomologist could prolly clean out the dbusism from'em. but i did not want to waste whole month.
asciilifeform: fwiw there are a number of proggies i was not able to build on that x60 , under my gentoo banflag-list . e.g. 'chromium', number of others.
asciilifeform: so no, not surprised. but said removals require good bit of actual work with hands; i have very rarely found that it was possible to do it 'with 3 lines of sed'
asciilifeform: well yes, recall where i bulldozered out the autoconfism in mpi
asciilifeform: sometimes, trivial fix. ( koch's gpg had at least 1 case, iirc ) but doesn't generalize to a mechanical fixer.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: sometimes one, sometimes the other. sadly.
asciilifeform: the build barfs, on account of 'we #include <liquishit21.h> and but you only have liquishit19.h and it takes 3 void * args in fucksheep() but our, Improved!1, takes 5 '
asciilifeform: hey i'm sure the rats in the dumpster also would think it is nogood
asciilifeform: or is it clear even to maggot that if mircea_popescu wanted to feed a cake to maggots, he can get them right outside of his window, and doesn't need to import from overseas ? but for this other item somehow not clear
asciilifeform: how come nobody writes in, in response to mircea_popescu's food articles, offering to 'help' to eat the mega-caeks ? ( or... do they )
asciilifeform: dunno that 'chair' is the right model. they have at least the elementary behaviours of e.g. fruit flies.
asciilifeform: i suppose this is not so diff from the folx who kept shilling for e.g. pirate ~after~ the magic day
asciilifeform: this part i always found puzzling. why not take the chance for revenge☟︎
asciilifeform: fundamentally predictable item , i suspect
asciilifeform: oh hey mircea_popescu -- did ro have a renaissance in voodoo claptrap crapolade in 1990s like old su did ?
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: was speaking of egyptians
asciilifeform: oh hah i'd expect they have pnojes by nao
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: how would you account for the diff ? (i.e. egyptian orc has his 'jam tomorrow' receptors safely plugged by koran ? or how. why not as susceptible to 'betterfutureism'..? )
asciilifeform: south amer orcs indeed seem to go about signalling for imagined gringosaheeb to uplift'em to mothership. how about in mircea_popescu's egypt tho ? same kind of bicyclism ?
asciilifeform: so mircea_popescu's picture is, orc bicyclist is imitating ameritards -- and not vice-versa /
asciilifeform: what i was thinking of, is sorta like the diff b/w usa motorcyclist and orc : the ameritard buys 'harley' on credit, because he saw some movies once; the orc has old zundapp simply because that's all the petrol he can afford , and all the parking that's to be had in his goat shed
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i assumed, possibly naively, that the orcistani ones simply can't afford a motor.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i.e. ameritard biciclism is diff disease than orcistani.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i dun have an argument, strictly an observation
