asciilifeform: not mega-prize puzzle, is it
asciilifeform: aha i recall this
asciilifeform: i'ma guess that in mircea_popescu cosmography , well-oiled, early rome was sabine-powered; later - 'cow'-powered ?
asciilifeform: gold , yes, can bring ( tho witness what happened when spain brought. ) land - nope

asciilifeform: and why stayed
asciilifeform: i have nfi why returned
asciilifeform: buried under ice in antarctica ?
asciilifeform: where on planet3 is the wholesome, noncuckoldating land ?

asciilifeform: what in mircea_popescu's pov ~is~ 'lazy'
asciilifeform: and what's the formula for who -- in nuthouse, and who -- not ? 'subclinical' vs 'clinical' neh
asciilifeform: i had nfi this was controversial. folx 'so lazy' that won't feed selves -- end up today typically in nuthouse
asciilifeform: if so lazy that won't bother to 'dip them' -- then yes, not complete
asciilifeform: just as mouse without white cells ain't complete mouse.
asciilifeform: evidently not complete
asciilifeform: that's the key, them folx were never 'complete country'
asciilifeform: it was a remainder from the j00z not yet nailed elsewhere

asciilifeform: not for chip layout, not for floor sweeping.
asciilifeform: the mega-discovery of the 2000s is that the folx with 0ballsack cannot be used ~for anything~
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: how does that work ?
asciilifeform: not masking tape.
asciilifeform: if you have the requisite number of d00dz , the +ev strategy is to issue rifles and go and take by the sword.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: '1980s toolchain' was a room full of d00dz with black electrical tape.
asciilifeform: ( see http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-01#1620477 & elsewhere ) ☝︎
asciilifeform: ru, for instance, pointedly ~did~ gabriel_laddelize the elbrus.
asciilifeform: (in turkeydollar.)
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: if you wanted to do this for real, vs. gabriel_laddelization, cost is roughly comparable to a moon flight.
asciilifeform: 'good noose, they'll need 10x the boxes to serve same # of cloudzeks'
