mircea_popescu: (i eminently do not say it has no failure rate. not even pregnancy tests make that sorta claim -- piss on one as a dude long enough you might be surprised eventually.)
mircea_popescu: as per the "males -- born to die trying ; females -- born to carefully & spawn" theory of biological gender difference, it even makes sense. in any case, the included prediction : i say there's not going to be a better (oral ; over the internet) gender test.
mircea_popescu: in fact, this is SO fucking ~biologically~ specific i'm even proposing it as the ~best currently known~ gender test. 1. female path : what are you going to do ? "im going to try X" why X ? "it's what everyone else tries". 2. male path : what are you going to do ? "i'm going to try Y" why Y ? "never fucking heard of it before"
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, tried, tested, known not to work, nevertheless "tested" again by
every new cuntlet, on usual theory, "this idiocy is tested so often it must be good sense".
mircea_popescu: and guess what : femstate components always come up with the same "solutions", too.
mircea_popescu is great expert at identifying breakage in "virtual economies". in fact, one thing that kept his interest in gaming alive past the single player neverwinter nights / gothic/ nox etc era.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, no, that's exactly what i'm saying. they wanted to "make money" sitting rather than to make money making money.
mircea_popescu: !Qlater tell phf hey props on your parser, it does right thing with context-supplementing bracket and link-anchoring bracked mixed in same line!
mircea_popescu: this is even why we play seriously : so as to have broken things that have been fixed (and broken again and fixed again, xn) rather than shiny untouched "things".
mircea_popescu: women will also break if played seriously, and companies and economies and rivers and FUCKING SCIENCE
mircea_popescu: whether they're reducible to one another or not is a point i'm still waffly on, so.
mircea_popescu: hmm, did i even recount the sad story of that typically moronic clerk ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: dumb as it is, it's not merely widespread, it's universal. "the path to making money in a service economy is not at all doing exceptionally well at serving, but on the contrary, being a
fucktarded romanian and saying no all the time!"
mircea_popescu: it's so very unspeakably dumb if you think about it, wtf, LET PEOPLE PLAY. that's why the fuck you made it in the first place, yes ? so they play it ?
mircea_popescu: utter fucked in the head, scared by virtual, desperately needing some fake scarcity folk.
mircea_popescu: nfi how they got to this notion, "o, you know what the best thing to do would be ? if people wanna do things in our game... ADD TIMERS SO THEY CAN"T!!!"
mircea_popescu: the problem with these is that they're all deeply persuaded, but i do mean DEEPLY, like, in the nephritic layer of their kidneys deep, that the ONE thing to do if you're making a game is rate-limit it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, might get terrible trying to debug a complex program
mircea_popescu: just as fucking long as it doesn't amount to a hill of beans, they're a-for it.
mircea_popescu: or anything, they'll crochet you a car. or a bridge. would you like to read the bellybutton lint chronicles ?
mircea_popescu: meanwhile the remnants, 0% fucking output, too busy dicking around with this fascinating lint & filth they found in their belly button. they'll bake you a pie, would you like pie baked out of their bellybutton lint maybe ?
mircea_popescu: that is what they live for -- to spread the empire of stupid. 100%, day in and day out, morning, night and all in between.
mircea_popescu: but whatever, the worthless 80% of the cuntspawn, pencildicks that are only fit for office droning are doing it 100% of the time -- everyone on steam is "oh, MUS THAVE DISCORD". why the fuck ? cuz tjat
mircea_popescu: come to think about it, 80% of trilema is in one way and another, "please adlai, stop being fucking adlai in the fucking head ; please kanzure, please this that and the other".
mircea_popescu: to escape it one'd have to realise WHAT precisely is so intrinsically wrong about being wrong ; but those who do so realise needn't, and those who need... well... lucifer is belabouring in hell under the (significant, btw) burden of the misapprehension of his own rightfullness.
mircea_popescu: anyway, the concern's not so much the monastery. the problem is that stupidity is self-reinforcing. i never met an idiot AWARE he's being moronic. on the contrary -- as an amusing reversal of
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-19#1505418 the very specific quality of idiocy / qualification for being an idiot is the ~being persuaded by idiocy~.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: it's just the endless story of young dicklet mccoolstuff.
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, i'm playibng "cunt wars" (browser game). mesmerized assistence, "omg, she's fucking a sword ?" ... "taking it IN THE ASS ?!?!"
mircea_popescu: which is particularly funny, because... they used to be.
mircea_popescu: n other news, living with slavegirls is pretty fun. you make a mess in some obscure corner of the house. any mess you want. then you wake up in the morning, and it's... gone.
mircea_popescu: and #2, this isn't somewhere for you to upload your autism. nobody gives a flying fuck about a marginally functional aspie and his worldview. start doing something useful so i don't have to send you down the chute ; stop picking at your bellybutton lint in any fucking case.
mircea_popescu: stjohn_piano_2, dude, fix your headcase. #1 if you're on enough to egostroke, you're on enough to answer a question
☟︎ mircea_popescu: aite, well, if you can live with this, i have no problem paying your retrobill when the shipment's made
mircea_popescu: you seriously expect me to pay a year's worth of service with bitcoin evaluated 2/3 of market price ?
mircea_popescu: i suspect you're paying way the fuck too much attention.
mircea_popescu: in other such, neighbour got himself a rented cat earth mover. something SO FUCKIN GWEIRD about little excavator caught inside microscopic garden, 2ft from builduing corner...
mircea_popescu: i dunno, 1-2 "creative" agencies in ny, might prefer paying 35k in office furniture than 10k/year extra salary
mircea_popescu: among the upper middle class / lower upper class the fashion is nao "frugality" (codeword)
mircea_popescu: and odds are, once this new sovok is dead, people will stop remembering the insanely iiritating if entirely inconsequential idiocies of the office drones & bureaucrats
mircea_popescu: in fairness, figuring inflation, that 34k is worth less today than the ~2k i paid for (14 in!!! vga crt in the early 90s
mircea_popescu: again, the idea is to give these to pizarro, in exchange of current boxes.
mircea_popescu: if you wanna invoice me for this by thurs it's all ok, but if not, will pay upon return.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, i'm ok for a coupla boxes. so the idea here is, buy copies of smg items, so that smg items become colo for smg and the new ones go to pizarro for itsef
