nubbins`: A REVIEW WILL SOLVE
THIS PROBLEM
assbot: Star
Trek
TNG Ambient Engine Noise (Idling for 24 hrs) - YouTube
hanbot wonders if cargo cult was well explained
to her or if she's merely getting more bizarre herself.
hanbot: mircea_popescu
that looks just about right. not
too often a bizarre facet of human behavior looks exactly as one'd imagined.
nubbins`: I asked Dirty Mark where he got
the name from: “I dunno, probably because I’ve fucked a lot of bitches without condoms and I may shit my pants from
time
to
time.”
nubbins`: man, vice is like reality
tv. not great but you end up getting stuck
nubbins`: turns out jesus was a pilot who flew into a
time warp
nubbins`: did you get
to
the part where he eats rotting chunks of lamb yet?
ThickAsThieves: some US and Euro
traders are moving
to chinese exchanges
too, but
to me something stinks
ThickAsThieves: they recently intoduced futures and margin and stuff i
think
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform cougars and cougarish
types of housecats
mircea_popescu: or by
the other side as "that desperate, harrowing last ditch effort"

nubbins`: a man who eats meat wants
to get his
teeth into something; a man who does not eat meat wants
to get his
teeth into something else
nubbins`: poor guy couldn't even finish his statement over
the laughter ;(
mircea_popescu: nubbins` in some places
the crag cat is a real danger
to human life
mircea_popescu: no, for
the inglischers is, "this is how normal debates work and everyone on reddit agrees."
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves i wonder if old married couples get
that same way, guy hears
the condom drawer screech and gets an errection.
ThickAsThieves: i do
this whistle pattern whenever i give
them
treats, if i do it long enough
they get all riled up and start smacking others
that get
too close
ThickAsThieves: ok but
the cat is a predator, isnt its instinct
to chase?
mircea_popescu: same exact
thing here. monopoly money is not
the same because it's not "in
their space"
mircea_popescu: the cat is driven by an attempt
to reduce
the cognitive load.
things
that move impredictably draw its attention and require it
to spend brainpower. better if
they stop moving.
TheInterocitor: No.
They have nothing
to offer
that btc doesn't already do
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves exactly like
the cat's reaction
to "unapprovable movement"
ThickAsThieves: what would you define
the instinct is of hating altcoins? fear of randomness?
mircea_popescu: speaking oif such instinct. i dunno if you've ever had dogs, but
they're beyond funny when virgin. because while
the dog's instinct absolutely drives him
to
try and mount
the bitch,
the dog's brain itself doesn't comprehend wtf is happening
mircea_popescu: course
they do. how do you
think all
the drunk conceptions happen.
TheInterocitor: A fool and his money I suppose. Any money I make in alts just goes
to btc. I have little interest in survival of
them.
mircea_popescu: once you fix
the coins
to 21mn
tops, everything else can exist in immoderate, endless supply
mircea_popescu: in bitcoin ? you're kidding.
there's been what, 6 or 7 jesuses ? at least 5 or so satoshis...
mircea_popescu: from what i hear from people
trying such
things, it rarely works in
the sense of comprehension, but almost always works in
the sense of making
the op stfu.
assbot: The woes of Altcoin, or why
there is no such
thing as “cryptocurrencies” pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
TheInterocitor: btw mircea_popescu I used one of your blog posts as a STFU in an argument
the other day
mircea_popescu: nubbins` i do shoot emails
to
the more promising publishers.
mircea_popescu: fucktards don't understand rngs.
took me all of 30 seconds
to figure it out,
too.
mircea_popescu: so im playing
this
tablet game. it has a slots implementation, giving some in game benefits. i
turned 2k chips into 85150, and it will never end.
ThickAsThieves: basically you can fault havelock's quality, and
there is where you can remove
trust
nubbins`: they sign up
the shittest funds in
the universe and chew up all
the listing fees
to unspecified "expenses", ensuring
the investorubes don't get any of it
nubbins`: they let funds delist whenever
they please, converting "shares" into "we'll send you a slip of paper"
nubbins`: let's see:
their website was an insecure piece of shit with massive security holes
that literally allowed
third parties
to drain accounts -- UNTIL LAST SUMMER
nubbins`: TheInterocitor: sure
they have.
nubbins`: TheInterocitor you
trust havelock?
nubbins`: if
the idiot still has hooks in it,
though..
