mircea_popescu: i am pretty convinced
the way milk became a part of
the diet is because of animal husbandry.
decimation:
http://westhunt.wordpress.com/2014/10/27/centum-and-satem-2/ << "It all started pretty far
to
the East.
There, some crazy locals first
tamed
the horse. I’m
thinking
that
they were something like
the Botai culture, riding and hunting horses, but not farmers.
They may well have milked
those horses – by
the way, horse milk is much richer in lactose
than human or cow milk."
ben_vulpes: stop drinking milk long enough and it will hurt
the next
time
ben_vulpes: upregulation and downregulation is a
thing
mircea_popescu: the genome doesn't change over
the lifetime of
the individual
PeterL: yeah, but
the body stops making it
mircea_popescu: PeterL how does
that make sense ? if you have it as a kid
then it's
there
PeterL: some populations get it more
than others
PeterL: milk digestion as an adult was one of
the most recent enzymes added
to
the human genome
mircea_popescu: decimation well it's not manly enough, sucking on
titties.
PeterL: then she decided she couldn't stand
to see another sweet potato and we started adding lots of stuff back in
mircea_popescu is a firm champion of "eat whatever
thoust will until you burst" diet, going on 40 years now
mircea_popescu: or more like "whatever, we just won't eat
too many sugar frosted dumplings" version
mircea_popescu: did you do
the actual no beans no milk no nothing version ?
PeterL: my wife managed
to make some interesting dishes
trying
to keep
things interesting
mircea_popescu: as a craft i mean. obviously hard
to fight a proper steak
mircea_popescu: come
to
think about it... i would
think deviled eggs is
the pinnacle of paleo culinary achievement huh
mircea_popescu: yeah well, i'm not giving up on my culture for
the sake of you know... preserving some bizarre prehistorical concerns
PeterL: I
tried it, like
the way I felt physically, but was
too bored with eating
the same
things over and over
PeterL: yes,
there are many dishes which just don't happen on paleo
PeterL: simmilar
to beef wellington?
mircea_popescu: and incidentally,
that's another
thing
this
town shines in.
they got sushi.
fluffypony: stuff from a
takeaway joint on
the corner is reserved for sushimergencies
PeterL: I've had sushi, didn;t like it much, probably not high quality
though
PeterL: there are other ways
to prepare fish
mircea_popescu: don't
tell me
the
thing's intended for kansasites who are barbaric enough
to never heard of and so never miss sushi
mike_c: omg,
that one does. it scrolls down
then sideways
then down
mircea_popescu: so
the paleo fad diet experts among us : what
the fuck do you do about sushi ?
mircea_popescu: im waiting for
the one
that scrolls crazy shitstick on all sides
assbot: Crypto Capital | Merging
the Fiat & Crypto World | Exchanges, Investors,
Traders
mircea_popescu: i mean,
they all depend on being
the only one as a business model, by now
the only firm guarantee
that can be made is
that nobody will EVER make a dime in
that market
mircea_popescu: is anyone even keepiung count of all
these braindamaged "services"
the bezzle keeps pumping out ?

nubbins`: altho given
the results of
the
tourney, maybe i should abstain
mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic no argument
there, but i just don't happen
to give a shit about chess, what can i
tell you
Apocalyptic: mircea_popescu, easier
to learn
than
to ask your opponent
to adapt, especially if he plays quite a lot
mircea_popescu: you'll have
to play with someone who actulaly knows how.
mircea_popescu: RetroUpriser sorry man, i'll have
to
take a bow here. my
table is
too fubar for a 3rd debug attempt
mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic because... i don't know it ? so ended up making some shit up on
the spot ?
Apocalyptic: why not using
the standard algebraic notation ?
RetroUpriser: im looking at a board and putting
the moves in
mircea_popescu: aw shgit i had
the pawn moved not
the bishiop. my bad.
decimation: asciilifeform: seems
to me it would be easier just
to send a pcm signal like bpsk or something, but I guess
this was before
that kind of stuff was well known
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Game seems
to be a
thing, just
the non-standard letters are messing with my ingrained encoding
BingoBoingo: RetroUpriser: How does king move
two spaces?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: It is for
the manufacterer and
the purchasing agency negotiating on
the specs. Maybe Police wants
to spring for better
than liberator, but forward cam...
too much
decimation: re: semi quad-copter << I don't get how
that's more effective
than a semi-truck full of small guided ballistic missiles
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: probably
the cost of making of forward cam vs. retard resistant gas can escape
two places design
BingoBoingo: r is
the queen, x is
the king, white is on
top (king's starts on e, queen on d)
mircea_popescu: so now, is X
the queen or
the king in
that arrangement ? or is white caps or no caps ?
BingoBoingo: That, but
then again non-nagant revolver so
there was an exit point for
the pressure between
the chamber and barrel

mircea_popescu: RetroUpriser ima do algebraic notation in about 5 minutes lemme
type out some letters
xanthyos: you don't need
to physically see
the same board
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> 'Minutes later,
Trooper Vanderwiel arrived with
the dog, which alerted on
the back area of
the car.
That gave Simmons and Vanderwiel probable cause
to search
the vehicle without a warrant or
the drivers consent.' << lol re:
the obvious implication,
the beasts are
trained
to 'signal' on command rather
than search << Pretty much an open secret by now
decimation: yeah my understanding is
that
the results of
the 'search dogs' are always an objective basis upon which one can search
decimation: asciilifeform: "fiat 'was down'" << sometimes
this happens because a geomagnetic storm knocks down a satellite - for example most gas stations in
the us clear credit cards
through satellite
RetroUpriser: Well
the offer stands should you change your mind

mircea_popescu: And she had
to apologize at once for her voice, which was a very unfair voice for a woman
to use. Her voice was a warm, luminous,
timeless melody. "Excuse me-" she said, and she began again, making her voice absolutely uncompetitive.
undata: what were we
talking about?
