bitcoinpete: intolerable.
The more egalitarian ideologies of
the eighteenth century, it may be suggested, offered resolution of contradictions
that had become burdensome beyond endurance. From
this vantage point, Louis XIV’s rise
to power seems less a
turning point
than does his death."
bitcoinpete: "Nobles explored alternatives
to patriarchal ideology not because it was weakening in
the seventeenth century but because its hold over
them was so very strong. … Seventeenth-century aristocratic culture … placed contradictory demands on its participants, between, for instance, ideals of inheritance and of individual ambition. By
the early eighteenth century,
the weight of
these contradictions had for many nobles become
bitcoinpete: "For sixteenth- and seventeenth-century nobles, everything rested on
traditional order and familial continuity."
bitcoinpete: "While it may seem foreign now, at
the
time,
the concept of
the person as an individual flew in
the face of
tradition. Questioning
this perspective sowed
the seeds of a new worldview where
tradition and social hierarchy were displaced in favor of individual pursuits."
bitcoinpete: but you gotta
treat
the guy more like a foreign dignitary/president/royal
that a blogger
bitcoinpete: ok so 50+ people fuck and i'm sure
taleb isn't immune
to babes
chetty: <mircea_popescu> chetty people stop fucking at 49. haven't you heard ?//do

chetty: <mircea_popescu>
then, burn
the consitution.//obama beat you
to it
mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete re 3, i could have strippers crash all his public events.
the
thing is...
that's hostile not friendly.
ThickAsThieves: maybe you hate Warhol art, start buying it up and shitting on it,
then sell
that art
chetty: ThickAsThieves, just give
to ISIS, or
the
Taliban
they got
that down
ThickAsThieves: thatd be a dun kickstarter
theme, funding destruction of historical objects
mircea_popescu: then shit in a bag and put it in a permanent display at
the
tate.
mircea_popescu: out of
those chinese rice
things with emperors painted on
them
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, years ago i used
to say
that one of my goals once i'm rich is
to make pilaf
bitcoinpete: not sure
the guy watches
that much youtube
mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete i'd burn
them and send him a youtube of
that.
bitcoinpete: so if you send
taleb
the dead sea scrolls
to his house with a hand-written card asking him
to hit dat webchat
mircea_popescu: if guy has any sense he dismantles
the entire
thing
that same day.
they've failed.
mircea_popescu: like suppose i send cia's shadow ops director a buquet of n roses on
the day he forgot
to send his wife
the n number as he should have.
ThickAsThieves: or is it just we're wild n crazy guys
that hire camwhores, cmon by!
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves he gets a clue an entity exists
that is powerful enough and informed enough
ThickAsThieves: well if
TLP watches
the vid, does he get any clue of why he might wanna visit #b-a, or what it is?
mircea_popescu: whether
these derps get something out of it or not is really secondary, and entirely up
to
them
ThickAsThieves: well i didnt see
the shorter video, but
there may also be a communication gap
bitcoinpete: "If at first you don't succeed
try,
try and
try again."
mircea_popescu: im not including
tlp in
the next set for lack of a means
to get in
touch.
bitcoinpete: the video is your one and only olive branch
then?
mircea_popescu: life selects. he was smart enough, but he couldn't hear.
there's no difference between
the deaf and
the dumb.
bitcoinpete: and his publisher will surely have him do a public appearance or
two
mircea_popescu: or in otherwords : being dumb and deaf keeps one from interacting with
the coolness in
this world. and
the world can't cure it for him.
mircea_popescu: and b) i bet you nobody's bothered
to send him an email
to point it out, he prolly doesn't read his
twitter (or his email for
that matter)
mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete sadly
the odds of
tlp actually seeing
that video are nil, because a) he hasn't approved
the comment on his blog still. a bunch of fucktards made > 50 comments since
then with
their fucktardery. if i were him i wouldn't ever read
the comments on
that blog, i'd rather read coindesk.
chetty: looks fine
to me, but
them I like mpex
too
PoUpA: Hi,

thrive under

mike_c: are you suggesting I show
the current BTC block for games

that.
mircea_popescu: yes, it sucks

bitcoinpete: hard
to imagine much could survive underneath
those panels
chetty: thanks,
the page could use a little more info it doesnt show current block
assbot: Kolkata firm
to help NHPC set up floating 50-mw solar power plant in Kerala - Economic
Times
bitcoinpete: "The ecology of
the water body is not likely
to be affected much and it will also reduce evaporation,
thus helping preserve water levels during extreme summer. Solar panels installed on land, face reduction of yield as
the ground heats up. When such panels are installed on a floating platform,
the heating problem is solved
to a great extent."
