trinque: mircea_popescu: damn, hadn'
t heard that one
mircea_popescu: just because man doesn'
t wear a bra doesn'
t show much about it, men don'
t wear bras, they wear ties.
mircea_popescu: basically you're saying "how come the man doesn'
t have a bra ?" when discussing whether man and woman are both dressed.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla sadly one can'
t have at the same time verifiability and opacity.
trinque: chetty: and sure, always knew they were rivers of shit; still hadn'
t ever heard from anyone that for example even knew what russia was like internally
ascii_field: jurov: notice that i don'
t live in ru, and nobody's inviting me over. but i happen to see the conflict of irreconcilable civilizations thing, and see the ru version - with the orc barbarism, yes - as less moribund
mircea_popescu: you know, just because most people find sooner or later personal reasons to hate large groups of idiots doesn'
t reduce the problem.

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=19-03-2015#1057738 << it is. people (especially people kinda too lazy to study things in depth) have all sorts of theories about privacy and keep pestering me for special addresses etc. it's a fashion is what it is, one i don'
t aim to encourage, and i'm stuck because w/e, serving teh customer.
☟︎ danielpbarron: I'm sorry, maybe I don'
t understand where you're coming from, but why are you quoting Mircea Popescu? I admit I have not read this entire thread, so maybe there's a reason... but I don'
t see what value there is to quoting an insane, misogynistic, racist drug addict here? The guy has shown time and again that he has no idea what he's talking about and everything he has ever done in his life is complete garbage (just going by
mircea_popescu: this "idea" is so fucking retarded it's perhaps the best advertisement to my ancient "you don'
t get to have ideas, go work for someone who matters" thing. only people without the first clue as to how things work could entertain such nonsense.
jurov: why do his worldview does bother me so, i don'
t know
mircea_popescu: what, it's secret, i don'
t get to see it ? only the choice alfs ?
ascii_field: jurov: just describing why 'there ain'
t room in the town for the both'of'em' to borrow from 'western' films
mircea_popescu: and russians don'
t have many freiends in the caucasus etc
mircea_popescu: ascii_field an advantageous explanation would be : they knew they didn'
t do it, so...
ascii_field: jurov: admitting that i wasn'
t there, didn'
t shoot it,
mircea_popescu: you shouldn'
t go around logged into the windows equivalent of root.
chetty: Saw a poll that 50% of americans still don'
t know health insurance is mandatory, wonder how they would pull off mandatory voting?
mircea_popescu: jurov i don'
t recall what the positions were there, was it the pro-russians saying the pro-nato downed it with a jet, and the pro-nato saying the pro-russians took it down with a buk ?
jurov: wouldn'
t happen in 1600, yes
ascii_field: not sure why one can'
t build it out of whoever, of lemurs, of bonobos.
mircea_popescu: if you were a film producer you would filter the actors, yet reality doesn'
t care ?
mircea_popescu: this isn'
t a conflict that can be won. inasmuch as it's a conflict, it was already lost.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field the idea that as the skin fails away the body can move to a 2nd line of defense is ridiculous. people with burns over 80% of the surface don'
t survive on their own.
mircea_popescu: that world doesn'
t exist, most soldiers die of ricochet.
mircea_popescu: suppose petreus didn'
t go down for it, went on a snowden tour. what then ?
mircea_popescu: but think for a moment through it. so, in a country where petreus can'
t have fun with an ugly stupiod old whore, there still exist these people who can do outrageous things.
mircea_popescu: because your description of this entity has more in common with that which doesn'
t exist than with that which does, and so parsimoniously it doesn'
t exist.
mircea_popescu: people mostly don'
t believe the usg statements in the case of ulbricht. what when they're actually made up ?
mircea_popescu: o, right. it will be used by soemthing that doesn'
t actually exist ?
mircea_popescu: i surmise you don'
t use it in the christian sense, but what do you mean by it ?
mircea_popescu: the situation isn'
t magically changed just because we're no longer shooting.
mircea_popescu: who ordered them made and what's his faith based on that he won'
t be the first they'll be tried on ?
ascii_field: i won'
t pontificate on whether the past century of usg work on tortures, dope, etc. came to anything, but this is more or less the kind of situation it was all ultimately waiting for, to try.
mircea_popescu: and i don'
t intend to give them THAT easy way out either. let em fucking work for their keep. what, keep me in prison for fifty years ? cool.
ascii_field: and naturally you don'
t destroy -only- copy
mircea_popescu: jews have all the money and power, men have all the money and power, jews have secret conspiracies to keep aryans down, men have secret conspiracies to keep womyn down, real aryans wouldn'
t fuck jews, real womyn wouldn'
t fuck men,
mircea_popescu: ascii_field maybe i'm veering into insanity by now, but i tell you honestly, i wouldn'
t give it to them if the whole country fucking sunk for it.
ascii_field: what i don'
t get is why they even bother signaling intent to do this with 'laws'
mike_c: although it didn'
t have LEAPs
lobbes: and I didn'
t have to pay $40k
nubbins`: So you're saying that ham sandwiches with lettuce aren'
t an integral part of smart contracts?
nubbins`: SO YOU'RE ACTUALLY, LIKE, TOTALLY SAYING THAT THICKER WALLS DON'
T PREVENT CRIME?
nubbins`: @eris_ltd So you're saying better locks & thick walls don'
t lower crime? If so, should we lock our doors at all? Smart contracts = locks.
kakobrekla: shouldn'
t those be called more like 'computable contracts' or whatever
nubbins`: "because they're smart you can'
t break the law"
assbot: Sure smart contracts may replace lawyers, but because they're 'smart' you can'
t break the law either, so you'll need fewer police.
nubbins`: that said, holding the stop sign all day is no fun. can'
t listen to headphones, gotta stand up!
danielpbarron: and it's nice to have the cd for machines that can'
t boot usb for whatever reason
mircea_popescu: you don'
t buy X because it's good, you buy it because it'll outlive everyone else, shitty as it is.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: the (national) gas tax hasn'
t even been bumped to account for inflation since...93?
ben_vulpes: counterparty fell back to "but don'
t you see the value in being the company that builds out quadcopters that can actually fly shit places?"
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Sure. As in delivery and understanding the principle. Just don'
t understand the idea of Port.
mircea_popescu: you can'
t have a basement in the swamp. or good cheese, for that matter.
mircea_popescu: i'm curious if it's going to yield some sort of ragnarok-like "the world is doomed" (seems to jive with the "austerity won'
t work for us so it doesn'
t work period" self-seeking ignorance) or some sort of ultraviolent civil war of six sides, like in japan
decimation: they aren'
t peasants who only roll shit uphill
mircea_popescu: you can'
t have moral persons that have delegated their authority. everyone in the us agrees that they're obeying laws because they're laws, not because they're right. consequently, american citizens can not be moral agents.
assbot: Logged on 19-03-2015 04:18:01; decimation: I can'
t believe any moral person would sign up for this kind of thing
mircea_popescu: it can'
t stop. this is a foregone conclusion, the us has no austerity way out
mircea_popescu: when confronted with stuff such as, you know "quite a few 'civilians' don'
t believe me when i explain that the 'publishers' do not edit, or - in most cases - even typeset the submissions; and that not only do authors receive no royalties, but often -pay- page costs"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: but even if it were true - still a joke. picture, full year's embargo. << i actually don'
t see much of a problem with this. most "science" is worthless anyway, i currently don'
t read it if it's less than a coupla decades old on general principle. a year's embargo wouldn'
t do anything.
decimation: I can'
t believe any moral person would sign up for this kind of thing
☟︎ decimation: yeah, and even then I expect all of those words don'
t mean what you think they mean
mod6: thanks for all your help ben_vulpes. couldn'
t have done it without you.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i wasn'
t aware anyone thinks ww2 was avoidable ?
gribble: Error: You don'
t have the owner capability. If you think that you should have this capability, be sure that you are identified before trying again. The 'whoami' command can tell you if you're identified.
