assbot: Logged on 18-12-2015 02:16:10; mircea_popescu: (this was counterintuitive to the grunts doing money changing in the street, we had a good laugh over steaks about it, when discussing venezuela's plans to the same thing. after it played out they decided i was a god. because hey, why admit you were wrong when you could think the guy who's right is simply supernatural)
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: sounds good
pete_dushenski: i thought ben_vulpes was all 'auto-auto-mobiles are the footoor because bayes' ☟︎

mircea_popescu: ascii_field my first thought upon encountering my first usians, as a 10 yo boy, was that "these people never went to school, did they ?"
assbot: Logged on 18-12-2015 17:07:00; mircea_popescu: the 18 so it's 180 now, comes to 520. i point this out. she proceeds to add them again correctly this time, and comes to 488. i refuse this alt-arithmetic too. she does it once more, hands me 82 pesos in change for my 400. i refuse this once again, hand 40 pesos back to her and leave.
assbot: Logged on 18-12-2015 16:28:25; mircea_popescu: and no, there isn't a local equivalent. they're just primitive souls, computers = windows ; internet = facebook ; world = argentina etc scl.

Birdman: mircea_popescu politically correct
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: seems unsurprising, sorta like the scratches on the keyhole of a lock owned by a drunk
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: aha!
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: incidentally a good bit of the 'startup' nonsense makes more sense when you realize that they weren't trying to get legit customers at all, but further chumps^H^H^H^H^Hinvestors
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i see ~generating~ a tx as a job for a specially-crafted box running from ROM and powered down immediately after
liquidassets: Thanks funkenstein_ I tried to dpaste it. the youtube must be an abridged version
jurov: mircea_popescu:it's coupla french rocks in some ocean

assbot: Logged on 18-12-2015 13:31:51; mircea_popescu: the same exact process used in "policing" the ghetto, at the taxpayer's expense but in the usg's own private benefit is also what the us military does abroad. the point isn't for iraq to functyion or not, the point is for there to not exist any gaddafi's. let the euros deal with the fallout, what, that's what the castrated suckers are there for anyway.
assbot: Logged on 18-12-2015 13:30:29; mircea_popescu: in this paradigm, it is not so important that there's mass theft or rape, just that there's no organized power behind it.

assbot: Logged on 01-10-2015 08:53:51; mircea_popescu: if this keeps up ima have to fork the pisschain.
assbot: Logged on 28-11-2015 16:33:08; mircea_popescu: anyway, my data seems to suggest that the enemy will be pushing a fork before the decade's out. whether we at that time have a counterfork ready or not is pretty much what decides the fate of the free world.
assbot: Logged on 18-12-2015 05:24:47; asciilifeform: btw, mircea_popescu, ever ask torvalds why he doesn't shutter 'linux foundation' for pissing on ~his~ trademark ?

asciilifeform: ah no not mircea_popescu
asciilifeform: and mircea_popescu aint' gotta hire anybody if he doesn't want to. but it ~is~ possible to hire nonstupid people
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: hourly wage with >1 significant figure is declasse in usa
mircea_popescu: "There is no requirement to buy ten, but raising retails from 89-cents to 10 for $10 increases sales from a case to a pallet on most items, when you have the right customer base..." << which reminds me of a point i wanted to make. yo ben_vulpes it's pretty dumb to offer grunt 30. offer 28.75. for one thing, it makes it look like real thought went into all that precision, and the sort of dickless imbecile he is will spe
asciilifeform: trying to inhabit a mircea_popescu gedankenexperiment is rather like trying to fly a martian ship with cockpit built for a man with seven arms
assbot: Logged on 15-12-2015 19:39:41; ascii_field: well i'd happily move if i were 1337 enough to take the gradient, rather than BE the fuel

assbot: Logged on 17-12-2015 23:24:37; pete_dushenski: " Argentina's peso plunged more than 26.5 percent on Thursday, after the country's new government floated the currency as part of a slew of free-market reforms aimed at revitalizing the stagnant economy."
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes you saw punkman's application ?
renart: no need, mircea_popescu.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: aha, they make a point of trotting them out in parade even
asciilifeform: '“It’s not surprising to me that people publish stuff on the Internet. It’s surprising to me that people are reading that and assuming it’s true. The notion that you can just break into a house and pay a cable bill or two and somehow establish a right of ownership — that is false,” said Loeffler.' << lulzy, reminiscent of mircea_popescu's 'sovereign citizen' article
