ColinT: I don't know what
that means
ColinT: As long as you don't change
the shape of
the glass,
the gravitational field, etc
mircea_popescu: the major point of difference being
that out of
the glass, of water or of emotion, one can extract usable entropy. not so from logic, at all.
ColinT: It's a
type of reasoning
that we do subconsciously in order
to guide our actions in
the world - it's implications go beyond hot stoves
though
ColinT: If we didn't feel pain when we put our hands on a hot stove -
that would be a problem
chetty: I
think
there are some hormones in
taht mix ..
ColinT: So
they are computed yes
mircea_popescu: but no, emotion ain't no
type o' logic i ever heard of.
mircea_popescu: <ColinT> I'm not someone who
thinks rationally in groups - because groups of people don't
think rationally << depends on
the group.
chetty: well
the odd
thought flow here
tends
to but unusal ideas next
to each opther, produces some very interesting results
ColinT: Emotion is still a
type of logic
ColinT: Logical
thinking is over-rated? ;D
ColinT: What is
this some kind of cult?
pete_dushenski: well,
the people here aren't just "humans," we're full fledged people
ColinT: I'm not someone who
thinks rationally in groups - because groups of people don't
think rationally
chetty: ColinT,
this group, if you can call it
that never seems
to reach conclusions, just send all away with more homework
ColinT: I'm not sure humans are
the greatest at coming
to intelligent conclusions in groups
chetty: sadly
this sort of outrage is showing up daily
pete_dushenski: chetty: An English blogger writing for
the Nomen Global Language Center in Utah was fired for posting about ?homophones? last week after his employer said
the word was
too close
to ?homosexual? and ?homophobe.? << holy sweet mother of retardistan
pete_dushenski: need more skillz and knowledge for
that. so here i am, sponging it up
ColinT: Not Bitcoin unfortunately, but not
terrible!
ColinT: I set it
to join at some point - never really chatted in here
though
xanthyos: why would a computer run
that emulation when it seems so inefficient
The20YearIRCloud: The sentient computer systems set up
to emulate foreigner behavior makes said maps
The20YearIRCloud: I have never been outside of
the United States,
therefore it can't be prove
that other countries do exist.
xanthyos: i
tried
to make homeopathic OJ by diluting it. it's just
too sweet
The20YearIRCloud: i have a
theory
that everyone on
the internet is a computer designed
to interact with me.
The reality is
there was a global war 40 years ago
that went nuclear, all countries do not exist,
the US is
the only one left
justusranvier: There are people who sell higher
than 30C dilutions
xanthyos: so 10^60 is 37 orders of magnitude less concentrated
than
that
xanthyos: homeopathy doesn't require any molecules of
the original solution
to remain.
the
theory is
that it changes
the resonance of surrounding water molecules in
the same way
that ice-nine worked in kurt vonnegut's "cat's cradle"
mircea_popescu: but yeah, i suppose it's a good proof
they don't grok objective reality.
justusranvier: a 30C solution is duluted
to 1x10^-300 of its original value
justusranvier: "If you're bleeding
through your nose, use a 30 C dillution, if it gets worse and you start bleeding from your eyeballs,
then increase
the dilution
to 50C!"
justusranvier: No,
they inventing fake remedies from massively dilluted rattlesnake venom and selling
them.
mircea_popescu: justusranvier what,
they're going
to africa
to
treat ebola
through hidration ?
pete_dushenski: … if i wasn't addicted
to ice cream and ate a
tub every single night
mircea_popescu: jesus
this is like...
the perfect excuse, isn't it ? "i can only imagine how productive i'd be if". har har.
mircea_popescu: "I can only imagine what a productive member of civilization i would be IF i was brought up with masculine values and was sexually sated. Instead i spent my life living out
the following
tale
trying
to figure out what my problem was and living as a manic bipolar depressive. Instead here i sit, a MGTOW, never finding enough reason or desire
to become productive beyond my own means."
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu:
there are less populous countries
than canada, but none on anywhere near
this much land
mircea_popescu: everyone got his own little ideographics and i need a dictionary
to wade
through
the sad produce of idiots who can't be bothered
to learn a language well.
pete_dushenski: brings
to mind douglas adams' : "Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may
think it's a long way down
the road
to
the chemist's, but
that's just peanuts
to space.
mircea_popescu: well canada's only one country on
the grounds of
there not being enough people in it
to pay for
two parliaments, amirite ?
thickasthieves: <+mircea_popescu> what
the fuck is with
these social media people, srsly.
they'll
take
the faintest hint of nothing as clear proof of
their importance. //// If it's measurable, it has value!
pete_dushenski: suffice
to say
that nubbins` and i are 6,000km away from each other, and could be 7-8000 apart and still considered "in
the same country"

pete_dushenski: and
the m3 blogger looks
to have
toronto's skyline for a background
mircea_popescu: yes but for most nuts
those patterns aren't
talking directly
to
them saying "omfg you're so important and we're paying attention
to you!11"
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: humans find patterns in
the most benign shit. see chemtrails
mircea_popescu: what
the fuck is with
these social media people, srsly.

mircea_popescu: it SEEMS like you'd do it 365 days a year, every waking moment, after a month in
the can.
pete_dushenski: "I as a man, biologically driven365 days a year
to ejaculate and produce sperm as often as possible, and having
the drive and desire
to want it every waning moment, who is villified for
this natural urge and made
to feel ashamed of my sexuality, control it and subdue it
to conform
to
the feminine imperative…"
