BingoBoingo: Isn't santa the one who tells Jebus to pick on Steve Job
danielpbarron: santa isn't mentioned in the Bible at all. that and the whole christmas thing are totally wicked abominations. see: http://www.atruechurch.info/christmas.html
mats: i don't have the heart to tell her she's a tourist
jurov: hasn't Christ put in place new commandments that makes all the rules in Leviticus (and these were for priests, anyway) obsolete?
ascii_field: https://cryptostorm.org/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=8702 << a bit schizo but overall logic is there. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: (and the reason there isn't such a thing as "a barter market" should be illuminating for the whole thing)
funkenstein_: "crowdfund" + glossy website and I didn't look further
assbot: Aren't those tins of tobacco right there behind you?
jurov: !t m S.XOTI
assbot: Logged on 08-09-2015 01:33:39; mircea_popescu: they're just numerous and don't give a fuck.
jurov: that won't be magical
mats: also auditing some mit security courses but the instructors don't seem to have time for me
mats: no, I don't own a vehicle anymore
pete_dushenski: then again, i say this as someone who wouldn't drive a car at all if i could only afford to drive a tracking beacon
thestringpuller: 16:42 <@hearn> who said they had to? i don't have a dedicated connection. got 25 mbit/sec upstream
mircea_popescu: trinque the requirement for people to be in the wot to use it ain't never going away. but the pressure to actually get in said wot is ever mounting.
mircea_popescu: trinque incidentally, re midnightmagic's question, i don't recall the format. was it the deeds get concatenated with \n as aseparator, sha512'd and that's the pubkey for the spend ?
asciilifeform: won't destroy shops, etc
asciilifeform: 'course it's not a crime! they won't, after all, riot
mircea_popescu: check it out. it wasn't actually even proven or anything. just, narratively reconstructed ex post facto
BingoBoingo: To be fair pete_dushenski Microsoft probably doesn't even know what they are ordered to put into patches anymore
assbot: Logged on 07-09-2015 19:40:08; ascii_field: 2011 trial "contributed to the mob mentality potentially inherent in instantaneous, unbridled, passionate online discourse," the court said. In light of that, the appellate court found a fair trial wasn't possible.'
asciilifeform: but rms is a man of much greater talent, and isn't really a snake the way esr is.
asciilifeform: meet esr in the flesh - the gasbag won't ever shut up about how his fingers were 'on everything.' -- and they were.
mircea_popescu: and i don't mean code work. intellectual work altogether.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: don't wait for this letter. after all, he still has a skin for them to take
mircea_popescu: idiots aren't truly idiots unless they stay unaware of their idiocy throughout.
assbot: Here's what they don't tell you when they bring you those papers to sign on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1Ql38iY )
pete_dushenski: wasn't mccaleb from stellar or ripple or something ?
BingoBoingo: trinque: SUre it isn't a spearfish?
mircea_popescu: you don't see "diversity is inherently good so we've hired a fbi most wanted guy"
mircea_popescu: what's never going to be good is hiring some inept crowd followrs. they're gay, don't you know, because they saw it on tv.
mircea_popescu: they're just numerous and don't give a fuck. ☟︎
assbot: Logged on 07-09-2015 16:15:52; *: pete_dushenski doesn't recommend wasting 80 mins of precious life watching gavin derp on podcast. just for historical reference and record.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=07-09-2015#1265320 << youtube doesn't work that way, but anyways. ☝︎
asciilifeform: i don't see it.
assbot: Logged on 07-09-2015 16:12:33; pete_dushenski: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8l11q9hsJM << “I don't think any of us—especially those five people—want to be the high priests of Bitcoin. We need to find a new way of governing—a new way of coming to decisions and have everyone be happy with the process and the decisions that are reached.”
mircea_popescu doesn't know any
mircea_popescu: they also don't have much the pakistani couldn't get at home.
asciilifeform: (they don't 'nordicsystem' there, no.)
mircea_popescu: they don't just blindly go to where things are.
asciilifeform: didn't want this? don't join nato.
mircea_popescu: mats for the same money, there's still a sense of "t bills are worth something" still in place for a lot of americans.
kdomanski: I didn't know that
asciilifeform: it doesn't really make much sense elsewhere...
assbot: Logged on 08-09-2015 00:30:31; mircea_popescu: so be good if you don't wantthe bugaboo to get you too! like it got those other kids.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no middle ground. either be them or don't need to bitch about it!
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i don't expect to ever meet this mythical animal, aha
pete_dushenski: trinque: hm. https://bitbet.us/rss/new/ << this part covers the new proposals. can't say i'm fully versed in how the >1 btc bets were teased out. best ask kakobrekla
trinque: deedbot- isn't currently n00b friendly at all, no. And I'll always prefer that people are in good standing in the WoT to use it.
mircea_popescu: midnightmagic a valid point, i don't think the whole thing's properly packaged for public consumption.
mircea_popescu: not that rms doesn't display plenty of it. myst be something in unix that makes people go "hey, i can just ignore the classes i don't want to use right now" or somesuch.
mircea_popescu: "i was an integral part of the gnu sellout, and i feel kinda bad about it so i'll just pretend i didn't do anything and hey, the communitards are too dumb to know shit from their face."
mircea_popescu: bitcoin does. usd does not. kinda why we don't like it./
mircea_popescu: the other important point is, "whether you get to actually hold it". riches subject to riders like "you may only use this to inflate real estate bubble" aren't much yours anyway.
mircea_popescu: kdomanski or appears so. i hold it isn't a sophism.
mircea_popescu: kdomanski the deep reason is that you folk can't eat on your own. obviously there's going to be a code of conduct : he who lives in his parents house observes the fucking rules neh .
mircea_popescu: bubble's going out and everyone's out on their ass, career or no career. this isn't showbiz, it's computer slavery.
mircea_popescu: so be good if you don't wantthe bugaboo to get you too! like it got those other kids. ☟︎
kdomanski: I don't think they actually did any damage in this case, but sometimes they ruin careers
assbot: Logged on 08-09-2015 00:13:05; mircea_popescu: hasn't affected me.
assbot: Logged on 08-09-2015 00:10:38; assbot: Logged on 07-09-2015 00:32:12; mircea_popescu: <shinohai> What kind of poppycock is that? Won't hire me if I have been negative online. << it's not hiring as much as living wage layer two. do you want to be like the niggers, getting free pills and welfare checks ? that's living wage layer zero. move to the ghetto. are you instead happy with the minimum wage, tax rebates, etc bullshit ? that's layer one, move
mircea_popescu: science isn't a present day version of "my older brother's in the navy seals" / "we are god's chosen people" where somehow it gives you a magic golen ticket to things.
kdomanski: I'm quite certain that ability to prove his statements scientifically (i.e. transsexuals not being homo sapiens) woudn't matter in this context
mircea_popescu: some people progress from there, some don't, and that's it.
mircea_popescu: people aren't born with the right to like and dislike and opine and so forth. people are born "women and children", which is to say with the obligation to adapt to others likes and dislikes. we call these others "their betters".
kdomanski: mircea_popescu: I understand is is colorful metaphor for "if you can't take the fallout, STFU and keep your opinions to yourself"?
mircea_popescu: if the people you talk about may have opinions, then this doesn't affect them. if it does, then they should have gotten their head out of their ass, understood their situation as slaves and put more effort into massaging the cock of their owners more betterer.
kdomanski: mircea_popescu: then again, you aren't most people
mircea_popescu: hasn't affected me. ☟︎

shinohai: til you really don't need anything special to perform a DoS attack on reddit besides a script that constantly f5's the page.
kdomanski: "unless @elia is removed from the project, I cannot learn Ruby, and thus can't get a job in Ruby development"
davout: ugh, transgender people either have something to contribute, or they don't, like the fucking rest of us
trinque: kdomanski: yeah, the ruby thing? not that I don't expect this has happened many times
jurov: don't wait for me till i communicate it with my guys, of course
mircea_popescu: and if it stays open till early oct, nosuchlabs won't have a server until it gets resolved.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform alrighty, so i won't continue it then.
shinohai: Every time I see fluffypony, I can't help but think "Friendship is Magic" and all.
shinohai: Oh, then count me as "have not" though most of the time it is intentional, as I don't buy into American commercialism.
trinque: yeah, I don't think anyone who is aware of tech thinks he invented anything
jurov: !t m s.qntr
pete_dushenski has never seen endo, perio, other specialists, doesn't know
pete_dushenski: i seriously don't understand this shit.
pete_dushenski: this is like saying that fair trials aren't possible because putin ate a ham&cheese croissant for breakfast.
ascii_field: 2011 trial "contributed to the mob mentality potentially inherent in instantaneous, unbridled, passionate online discourse," the court said. In light of that, the appellate court found a fair trial wasn't possible.' ☟︎
pete_dushenski: this custom doesn't translate ?
pete_dushenski: http://tech.slashdot.org/story/15/09/07/1535221/why-biking-injuries-and-deaths-are-spiking-in-the-us << heh. can't afford cars so taking bicycles. 'researchers' blame 'lance armstrong effect'
ascii_field: pete_dushenski: i don't live in the dc city walls properly speaking
pete_dushenski: not that $2,110/mo isn't still obscene
assbot: Logged on 30-07-2015 15:37:38; mircea_popescu: i don't solve problems. i just throw away other people's solutions.
pete_dushenski: aha. very reasonable counter-point. but my original point still stands because you're changing the premises now. esr didn't have 10c and need 9 to make rent, same for lottery/athletics winners. they had millions and failed to turn it into anything other than heartache and dust
pete_dushenski: ascii_field: the point being, most people haven't the foggiest clue how to make a dime last a day, much less how to turn it into 15c.
ascii_field: poor cn orcs haven't had their buffett and wrigley's corp. yet, have not invented reasonably food-like industrial waste, yet.
assbot: Logged on 07-09-2015 04:00:49; mircea_popescu: but that's all gone now. people aren't willing to kill each other so they'll get packed.
pete_dushenski: punkman: doesn't have to be direct string-pulling, can be 2nd, 3rd order
ascii_field: you don't get to be that in usa without some apparatchik support.
punkman: pete_dushenski: I don't buy that the crown has any control whatsoever against the botmasters
assbot: Logged on 07-09-2015 00:32:12; mircea_popescu: <shinohai> What kind of poppycock is that?

punkman: "really are this simple" yeah you don't need more than that
