decimation: Spandrell made another good point in his next post: "Say a woman that gets a job before of a female quota, but is chosen specifically because she isn?
t a loud feminist and does not abuse her legal privilege. Will she ever abandon feminism? Most likely not. After all she owes her job to feminism, even if she had to take a second sanity test. But she has nothing to win, and quite a lot to lose from abolishing female quotas."
trinque: didn'
t our thing eat all his useful folks?

t send it till i send him a command
williamdunne: danielpbarron: Not sure why she couldn'
t have just come on here D:

t control because I'm not both the bank and the central bank

t it suspected that the SEC (or was it CFTC, or was it both? God knows) wasn'
t too amused with the fact that all of the exchanges are not regulated and based in God's favourite country?
pete_dushenski: you may be on to something there, even if that doesn'
t leave us closer to figuring out who he is.
assbot: Logged on 03-06-2015 04:39:24; asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: this is the reason you can'

trinque: looks like a great place to live; I can'
t imagine why
BingoBoingo: But the expansion isn'

t take so much as a shit without some 'coder' building a 'career' on it << Coders are like asparagus in this way. They love their easy nitrogen and phosphorous
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: and must nitpick, but it isn'
t the current therealbitcoin yet. not until patches are ratified. << we'll get there. I'd like to have a discussion at some point about the possible negitive effects of at least the TX Orphanage Amputation patch.

t hit the OOM-Kill either, ran good the whole time without problems.
thestringpuller: trinque: you were that kid who managed to break a gameboy weren'
t you?
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: the starbucks hipster is usually the unemployable art school student. the employable ones don'
t complain about tools since they just fill out PO's until they find one they like.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: that's because logical competency and art don'
t go together. better trying to mix oil and water.
trinque: think so, long ago; I don'
t do much graphics stuff
thestringpuller: it's supposed to remove the sysadmin from the equation if you don'

t be buying from them again.
mike_c: fking ancient manhattan building too.. wouldn'
t be surprised if the power is dirty

t seem seized.
mike_c: it doesn'
t look exploded though
mike_c: one big capacitor has melted plastic, but don'
t know if that was failed component or just nearby
mike_c: update on exploding computer - it was definitely the power supply. some nasty oil stuff came out of it. i don'
t know what the hell they put in these things.
trinque: I dunno what that is, but I don'
t see any fur on the dragons

t say that and not share the picture you found, and the picture of your gf
kakobrekla: kako's key wasn'
t fetched < but i used deedbot earlier and it worked ?
mircea_popescu: kinda why the warning is there. don'
t think any aproach other than curl is safe on it
jurov: interesting. somehow the key hasn'
t fetched by my script
mircea_popescu: jurov no but i recall he took the whitelisting stuff away. don'
t tell me KAKO isn'
t whitelisted.
jurov: Using the <code> tag doesn'
t tell WordPress to encode HTML markup within the tag or strip it from the post. WordPress thinks that you are using this markup for formatting, leaving it untouched.

t nubbins`: thanks, i generally don'
t take photos w/ it tucked anymore

liquidassets: you don'
t seem satisfied...I don'
t know mircea_popescu I don'
t know what I am,,ok?
mircea_popescu: or, to quote mayer again, "Listen to me! I don'
t care what you do in private. Just don'
t do it in public. In public, behave. Your fans expect it."
mircea_popescu: my clothes have a bank account. inasmuch as they can'
t get off me and i have a bank account :D
liquidassets: I don'
t know, it FEELS like a country to me, has boarders, armies, laws etc..
liquidassets: I don'
t follow, is that a slight because his ancestry is closer to africa than yours, or are you arguing that he wasn'
t born in the United States?
liquidassets: thestringpuller I don'
t want to care about it anymore, I just want to document
mircea_popescu: how's the "Broken with varnish" thing go, i didn'
t actually keep that thing
mike_c: no visible damage to anything, so can'
t imagine it was a hard drive, and it was a lot of smoke
mircea_popescu: ftr, i didn'
t follow the logic of that entire conversation.
mircea_popescu: they didn'
t seem to care all that much about "discussion and analysis" or "due process" or "scientific method" back when those were pointing and laughing at their idiocy, from global warming to fad cures to the whole heap of dumb they live in. but now, suddenly... they wish to be saved by the icons of some sort of wisdom that they never had anything to do with, not anymore than the pigeons shitting on statues are part
mircea_popescu: his objection entirely reduces to "hey libertards, wasn'
t it great back when we were opressing the conservatives, you know, those rednecks *rolleyes*
mircea_popescu: "This isn'
t an accident: I have intentionally adjusted my teaching materials as the political winds have shifted. (I also make sure all my remotely offensive or challenging opinions, such as this article, are expressed either anonymously or pseudonymously)."
ben_vulpes: i don'
t think further splits are avoidable
ascii_field doesn'
t grasp why mircea_popescu thinks this to be hard
trinque: better if he doesn'
t absorb the braindamage
mircea_popescu: trinque i read his stuff for curiosity, i was so wtf'd. "this doesn'
t look like www code..."

t feel bad liquidassets, I haz none either :/
danielpbarron: i don'
t mean strictly limited to what assbot tracks
liquidassets: which is fine, I don'
t sell much of any btc anyway, but investment creates liquidity and liquidity creates value
danielpbarron: i wouldn'
t deal with anyone outside my WoT at this point
danielpbarron: that means their customers are paying in bitcoin? I know the typical drug user and they don'
t have any bitcoin
liquidassets: It feels like now I"m dealing with drug dealers, whereas before I didn'
t have to
liquidassets: I guess I don'
t know what jurov means by that, I still have pride as an American
lobbes: ^ I get paranoid with .25 sitting somewhere outside my control, can'
t imagine 80 BTC O.o
liquidassets: it seems I've lost my ability to easily turn btc into cash. Not that I didn'
t anticipate this eventually happening

t opt into the US legal regime either
hanbot: cazalla, things go bad in the tropics like you wouldn'
