mircea_popescu: i suspect "we can fix your pals" would be mega business. if, of course, bolix prices weren't utter bs, and if, of course, anyone wanted
them ~for an actual purpose~. neither of which...

the uncensored dump. dks certainly aint coming

tell phf
turns out i was wrong re
the rom,
the rom-shaped object is actually a 1980s 'programmable event
timer'

http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-18#1881345 << already replied
that he got'em on paper, but in
treasure chest on wrong coast ( he moved
to west. ) i answered with offer
to pay his flight
to get'em plus what
to make it worth his while. no answ
to
this just yet.
mircea_popescu: i see it ; buyt possibly went
to modqueue because linked ave's
thing
mircea_popescu: "Mircea Popescu validates Mocky's feelings on
this matter. " ahahahah
mircea_popescu: if
there's anything in
the world more insulting
than
the passage of
time i can scarcely imagine what
the fuck it'd be. but i suspect i know how moses feels every
time danielpbarron quotes
the bible : exactly how i feel every
time one of
these inconsequential schmucklettes discuss "the concept of bdsm".
mircea_popescu: now
these fucktards go about with a unified view of "the
thing specifically declared as unifiable".
mircea_popescu: pro
tip :
this
thing exists specifically as an umbrela
term of irreducible reality. it was made as such and deliberately, by people from
the 70s.
mircea_popescu: honestly i don't
think we have nearly enough drama. a serious project would have more drama.
Mocky: just read
the summary, got a chuckle. 'tis
tru!
mircea_popescu: Mocky did yo uget butthurt at something she said
that i've not got
to read eyt ?
mircea_popescu: kinda why inheritance is such a suspect device in
the first place.
mircea_popescu: yes well. if actuarial science
teaches anyhing, it's
that it is likely
the dullest son who inherits.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> ie, do
they object money was flowing into
trump or
that it was flowing out of
trump ? << US folks set
these
things up and set
the
to keep warm. If
the kids don't fuck him at
the end of life
thing gets filled and kid gets
to draw a salary and "philanderanthropist" job
title on
their CV
mircea_popescu: but, in
this world, one generally gets what one wants.
mircea_popescu: except she was a pretty smart white girl, rather
than an ugly stupid black girl.
mircea_popescu: haha, forget about it. clinton's career is deader
than disco. she's gone
to join her paramour, condolezza rice.
BingoBoingo: He recently put up a
tower in Punta Del Este
mircea_popescu: didn't he own a
tower in buenos aires and shit like
that ? wtf million.
mircea_popescu: nfi, i don't watch
this so closely. but on
the strength of data presented...
mircea_popescu: "the price on 5th avenue of such a suitcase (or a similar one, as close as could be found) new is a little more
than 1.7 dubaloos.
thereforee..."
mircea_popescu: yes,
that's my reading. "a suitcase claimed
to have carried
trump's clothes at so point no closer
than
two years ago, having been encountered by a hobolice officer, was now officially
transferred into state coffers".
mircea_popescu: sometimes, you open a drawer and dscover rats ate some paper. not commonly at your residence, but you're only one and
there's many residences. and warehouses. and so on.
mircea_popescu: people with money make
these ~regular basis. sorta how you buy sheets of paper.
mircea_popescu: wanna go
treasure hunting
through
the streets of brooklyn, looking for
the missing billion ?
mircea_popescu: i expect
there's in excess of a million "dormant", ie, entirely abandoned such legal entities in
the state of new york. i further expect
their paper assets exceed a billion.
mircea_popescu: ie, rather
than your interpretation above, i see it as a "in 2016,
trump won election, 5979th item on his agenda was how apparently state of new york decided
to "investigate" some foundation. he shook his hand and moved on,
two years later
the morons finally got something
to flash in media, and precisely nothing else, even locating where
the chairs are anymore is impossible)
mircea_popescu: (i suspecvt 2016 on
the basis of "most recent", otherwise "it's 2017
tax return", "its last year's
tax return" etc.)
a111: Logged on 2018-06-21 16:51 asciilifeform: ( sorta how you see sentences for '10kg of lsd', which has never existed and probably will never exist on planet earth;
they weigh whatever reagents, incl water )
mircea_popescu: where's
that log link of yours re
the weighing of contraband ? "this car had roach in dash so we captured car's weight of marijuana" ?
mircea_popescu: yeah, but
the sort of reports
they make,
that 6mn is ~40k
mircea_popescu: seems
to me a rather pompous case of "oh, you used
this room
to funnel moneys
to charities dedicated
to hanging fat old black women rather
than feeding hobos ? WE
TAKE
THE CHAIRS!!!"
mircea_popescu: ie, do
they object money was flowing into
trump or
that it was flowing out of
trump ?
mircea_popescu: "nd resulted in
the misuse of charitable assets for
the benefit of Donald J.
Trump ("Mr. ("Trump")
Trump" and his personal, political and/or business interests. In sum,
the Investigation revealed
that
the Foundation was little more
than a checkbook for payments
to not-for-profits from Mr.
Trump or
the
Trump Organization." << i don't get it... so was it used for his benefit or at his cost ?
mircea_popescu: as general compression
theory predicts, it is ~extremely hard
to summarize~.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman welcome
to
the horror of all
time : a lot of shit
to summarize, specifically driven by and existing specifically because previous efforts at summarizing.
diana_coman: I'm sure it can also fully and without problems "summarize"
the
twitter
twatter
mircea_popescu: (i will propose go "with a general adversary", glory-hole go so
to speak, is about on
the complexity level of log summarizing, +- constant)
diana_coman: I can also add
that doing
those summaries is useful in cementing my previous idea
that
they really have
to be done manually -
there's no way
to link
the various bits and pieces correctly without actually understanding
the content; even with pointers from one line
to another, even with some set of
terms and definitions , it would still likely fail
mircea_popescu: the fundamental difference between my harem, which is fun, and army service, which is and can be anything but fun, is
that
the girls ~don't~ know what all
there is, bad or good, nor how
to say it. not everything's a list, not everything's a procedure,
the scary butts its head in almost daily. but what can you do.
mircea_popescu: also why bureaucratic language becomes such a laughingstock (aka, "limba de lemn")
the ~better~ it gets : it
takes
this devil's hand, and makes
the
trade, accepts narrower domain for better specificity.
mircea_popescu: it is definitely
there. but
then again you can't, practically, neither emit orally a
Titem array nor forbid people
to
think of large arrays.
mircea_popescu: natural language, however, ablates
the
trees for "convenience" so
to speak, ie, uses commonly what's known in computing as sparse
trees.
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: specifically : all communication relies on
trees ;
the presence,
the order, ~and absence~ are all meaningful, and meaning is extracted from communication by adding and removing from a mind-held space of possibilities according
to what is said, in what order it is said, ~and what is not said~. because certain absences, just as certain ordering, deny certain possible meanings just as well as if
they were denied explicitly.
mircea_popescu: i
think what ~really~ happened was
term vicious switched parser into interpreting ~your~ quotes as neutral (she's
taking from
the log) whereas
they were in fact overloaded (she's using
them
to convey faux smart
tone on being smart).
mircea_popescu: honestly, i
think you have it.
the quotes are
there,
the discussion is here, he who reads understands.
diana_coman: hm, I did not read it as a neutral symbol, hence my "" for it; but I don't really know how
to convey more clearly
that it's
the opposite of actual smart (other
than either explicitly noting
that or using
the ""
that seems
to fail
to work)
