pete_dushenski: "'We must use all means at our disposal
to end
the violence and restore calm
to
the region,' Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov"
BingoBoingo: That
thing started so promising and fell so far, basically weev 2.0
pete_dushenski: "Chinese and Russian officials are warning of a potential humanitarian crisis in
the restive American province of Missouri, where ancient communal
tensions have boiled over into full-blown violence."
mircea_popescu: i'm going
to be a barber and ima peel everyone bloody
today ;/
mircea_popescu: i have an idea, let's all call ourselves
things we aren't and
then do a shitty job of it.
mircea_popescu: not put up a note
to insulate himsefl from
them.
this is like... antiprofessional.
mircea_popescu: an editor's job is
to EDIT, which means protect
the fucking copywriters from
their own idiocy
mircea_popescu: Brendon has since resigned on his own accord after realizing from countless emails of concerned readers
that
this was seen as an “attempt
to grab money via guilt”. While
this was not his intention he has since realized
that it could be seen
that way by many readers and independently felt he needed
to go back and better hone his skills at
this
time.
mircea_popescu: Editors Note from Mike: I am adding
this note after
this piece is published
to state
that
this is a personal opinion piece from Brendon.
mircea_popescu: "Here, Quantrill
took up a job in
the lumberyards, unloading
timber from rail cars. One night while working
the late shift, he shot a man
to death. Authorities briefly arrested Quantrill, who claimed self-defense. Since
there were no eyewitnesses and
the victim was a stranger who knew no one in
town, William was set free."
cazalla: mircea_popescu, might've upgraded it,
this is just after d3 lauched so don't really remember, point being i doubt
they need a kickstarter
to continue blogging
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
The only
thing he could have done better would have been
to completely erase Lawrence Kansas
mircea_popescu: fluffypony he was here earlier
too. what's he doing
these days ?
atcbot: [CoinMiner Hashrate]: 1.31

targeting him

mircea_popescu: assbot: usagi +v failed; L1: 0, L2: -5 <<
this is kinda lulzy.
BingoBoingo: It wouldn't be
the first
time such
things happened in Missouri
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo but
the attacks come mostly from
the police.
BingoBoingo: You know,
this account selling
thing is why
there can't be old
timers on
the forum
BingoBoingo: So, from pretend martial law
to actual martial law
mircea_popescu: fluffypony yeah
the original was a more or less adult dude. acct may have been sold i hear.
BingoBoingo: "Given
these deliberate, coordinated and intensifying violent attacks on lives and property in Ferguson, I am directing
the highly capable men and women of
the Missouri National Guard
to assist Colonel Ron Replogle and
the Unified Command in restoring peace and order
to
this community."
fluffypony: and
then went quiet from July 2013, popped his head up for 1 comment in September, and
then suddenly in May
this year is back and supporting some crappy scamcoin
assbot: Ferguson: police fire
tear gas at protesters before second night of curfew.
mircea_popescu: cazalla: i had a diablo blog doing 1m uniques a month and it was fine on $20 month vps <<
that's pretty impressive for
the vps.
assbot: View
the profile of bitcoinbear
fluffypony: he posted in a stack of mpex
threads in 2013
gribble: You rated user grubles on Fri Nov 23 22:04:49 2012, with a rating of 1, and supplied
these additional notes: None.
mircea_popescu: he;'s just buttsore
that google indexes
trilema better
than newscorp.
assbot: NSA privacy invasion bad, but nothing compared
to Google.
pete_dushenski: those plaid skirts are hanging from
the ceiling fan ;)
pete_dushenski: very proper on paper, but filth nasty when
the bell rings
mircea_popescu: i mean asciilifeform needs it
to prop up his "competence behind
the incompetence"
theory, but otherwise in practice it's not observed.
xmj: they're damn pervasive, you find
them everywhere.
xmj: what is it with catholic schoolgirls
these ays?
pete_dushenski: perhaps a better example is
the stereotypical catholic schoolgirl
pete_dushenski: well if
the skvirels are selecting agents based on a code of sorts, and letting in mannings and
the like while pretending
to do so,
this is a bit like soccer players who speak of professionalism and dive when
their opponent looks at
them funny
mircea_popescu: i dunno if
that's particularly contemplated. whenever asciilifeform uses
that i just replace with "secret agents"
mircea_popescu: well i imagine asciilifeform's
theory is
that snowden is kosher while i gave manning as an example of not.
pete_dushenski: what do aryans have
to do with snowden, charlotta, etc?
pete_dushenski: the only part of
the article i didn't
totally grok was
the aryan bit
mircea_popescu: well if it makes you feel better i have a lot of disdain for romanians
too.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu finally finished
the monumental flesh vs. machine article. doesn't seem your
thoughts on english speakers have much changed.
mircea_popescu: (and i didn't
think much of english speakers back in 2010, either.)
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: If you're going
to really be
the best MP scholar you can be, you need
to be able
to
tackle
the Romanian writings << sorry folks. i didn't do it on purpose, i just had nfi we'll end up here.
mircea_popescu: and
that way i won't have
to put you back on ignore either.
mircea_popescu: the advice is
to stfu and read. which is hopefull what yu've been doing
the past year or so
BingoBoingo: usagi: We've chatted several
times in
this channel last summer
usagi: Ehh I
thought you had me on ignore?
mircea_popescu: <usagi> Well Bingo it's
true I am eccentric. I am pretty sure a lot of people
think i'm nuts. But dangerous? I'm just asking what
the deal is with
that one <<< you massively overestimate your own ability, and
then derp about it in an unconvincing but ceaseless manner which entraps
the more idiotic bystanders.
BingoBoingo: usagi: I've chatted with you before several
times. Your memory's reliability is not my concern.
usagi: Bingo, when
tahoe-lafs loses a 300 btc private key,
the situation is "sad". When I lose zero BTC in a development site web wallet I get videos made about me.
usagi: And it's likely as a result of
the continuous name dropping in
this channel despite me not being here for 9 months.
usagi: Frankly, you decided
to rate me without ever having chatted with me
usagi: Well Bingo it's
true I am eccentric. I am pretty sure a lot of people
think i'm nuts. But dangerous? I'm just asking what
the deal is with
that one
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: If it didn't seem destined for
the BadBat category would make an interesting BitBet
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo: I mean
the 1992 LA riots only really lasted what, six days? << how long do you
think a
town will burn.
BingoBoingo: A lot of it was from
things you've said as well, I mean forum posts channel logs (here and -otc)
mircea_popescu: assbot:
Tonight, /hashtag/Ferguson?src=hash cops have: *
Tear-gassed an 8-year old * Driven a
truck
through a crowd *
Threatened
to kill a reporter on air <<
that shit still going strong huh.
usagi: Why do you
think I'm dangerous? I'm interested in learning precisely what it is you feel I should learn.
BingoBoingo: I first appeared in
this channel early 2013
BingoBoingo: usagi: I've read
the history and your interactions with others. I actually don't
think you are a scammer at all. I still
think you are incredibly dangerous.
usagi: I haven't been here in 9 months, since
that
time you have established yourself in
this community. I find your case in particular very interesting.
usagi: I'm just curious since you're very new here, comparatively, and yet you seem
to know so much about people you have never met
usagi: Do you have any evidence
that I have scammed or stolen anyone's bitcoins?
usagi: Hi. If you have something
to say about me Bingo, say it
to me and not behind my back please.
cazalla: BingoBoingo, i can't find
the apology article, perhaps it's been removed but
that sites was
taking reddit posts, rewriting
them, upboating
them
to
the
top and attracting a lot of
traffic, i speculate
the site was sold
to someone who wanted
to do it up and improve
the quality but no proof, just a hunch
BingoBoingo: Information is worthless in
the hands of people who can't interpret it
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu> nothing's changed since 2011 but
the knowledge gap. much deeper nao. << Probably
the reading comprehension gap as well
mircea_popescu: <usagi> yeah and I'm not a
tomato lol (relevance?) << check it out kako.
tomato is not a scammer either!
mircea_popescu: nothing's changed since 2011 but
the knowledge gap. much deeper nao.
mircea_popescu: <usagi> But MP kept shitting all over GLBSE. Maybe he knew something, maybe he didn't, back
then we didn't really know << i knew
things
the lot of you didn't before it was even cool.
