cazalla: but i don'
t use my phone much at all now since i was relegated back to iphone 4 after smashing the 5, if it wasn'
t for google maps i'd get rid of it
ben_vulpes: they actually won'
t let you on the plane without the paper printed out.
ben_vulpes: i have to pay the reciprocity fee again don'
t i
mircea_popescu: "no audio, no video, if you can'
t write it so i feel like reading it you never happened."
saifedean: if you want to go a little bit beyond TLP, try a man by the name of Jon Rappoport, and don'
t be intimidated by the cookiness... this guy was onto this stuff decades before TLP... and is far ahead
mircea_popescu: in the 70s, the occasional girl that went "i prefer older men" was kind of a freak. in the 90s, it was common enough. by now... i don'
t think any girl with options goes for boys her age. and so... there's your overclocking.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that was a different generation of kids. that weren'
t mentally retarded.
mircea_popescu: i don'
t think the average smartphone user is smart enough to know what the cpu does.
saifedean: my brother is in med school and today he reported to me that according to the latest DSM, 25% suffer from psychiatric disorders... won'
t be long before they get this up to 100%
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and unlike the nkvd, they didn'
t even have to twist anyone's arm to keep quiet.
saifedean: i don'
t really understand how anyone could want to live in the US in this day and age... anybody who chooses to go live there is essentially an other-determined dweeb who cannot think for themselves and just follows what the tv tells them
saifedean: pegged to the dollar, but since the dollar is always falling, and the CB's gold reserves aren'
t, this makes the CB very comfortable
saifedean: washington is a fucking shit-hole, i wouldn'
t live in it if you paid me 20k a week instead of rent, there's no city worse on the planet
saifedean: people don'
t really have shitty bezzle careers, they have actual productive jobs making useful things... like furniture and food
mircea_popescu: anyway, re the "questions asked" : in a total nod to asciilifeform's "merit washing" ideas, by now the point isn'
t even to have any sort of product, as it hasn'
t been for decades, noreven any sort of plan. they "invest" in "great teams", nao. "kids will figure it out later".
saifedean: my working theory is that any "entrepreneur" who engages in any form of 'event' about start-ups or entrepreneurship is not an entrepreneur, and has nothing interesting to offer the world. if they did have something interesting, they wouldn'
t have time for wankery
mircea_popescu: or else 4b) if society doesn'
t bite the bait, they "street cred" because were going to 4evar totally do it.
assbot: Logged on 09-03-2015 17:31:55; mike_c: i don'
t think that is usg honeypot. just misguided VC chumpatron.
ascii_field agrees. so long as the answer isn'
t 'here have a little rectangle of rdesktop crapolade instead of screen-filling display-agnostic remote gui on your giant vertical lcd'
ascii_field: because x per se doesn'
t impose the retardation
mircea_popescu: "my house doesn'
t have a hole in the roof - trivial fix" "whatever, i'm not dealing with those imbeciles".
ascii_field: i'd argue that these folks -simply don'
t get to- design cpu any more.
ascii_field: surprised that usg hasn'
t funded them yet.
mike_c: isn'
t there a shadowban? ignore or something?
nubbins`: you mean filipino and they don'
t use flashes
mike_c: now that I do, it appears nobody. I was the last one who didn'
t know.
ascii_field: (any financial network the buggers don'
t control, of course, falls under this)
mike_c: heh. i can'
t argue with that.
mike_c: i don'
t think that is usg honeypot. just misguided VC chumpatron.
☟︎ ascii_field: thing is, actual hawala isn'
t a roundedcorners iPnohe turd app
ascii_field: rowhammer article << didn'
t we do that here a while ago?
danielpbarron: strangly enough, twitter doesn'
t like to show our conversation in one page for some reason, you have to click each tweet separately to see the context
ben_vulpes: i don'
t have much choice in the long run.
ben_vulpes: i won'
t do it mindlessly, and i won'
t go quietly into that dark night.
decimation: I don'
t blame the folks at google for trying to improve specific hardware products
decimation: thestringpuller: sorry, apparently I haven'
t used up my allotment yet :(
decimation: a skilled machinist's time isn'
t cheap either though
decimation: but the 'docent' guy wasn'
t terribly familiar with the issues I gather
PeterL: mircea_popescu:pete_dushenski they claimed circle defrauded them, threatened to sue. never sued, disappeared. << was Dwolla, I don'
t think Circle was a thing yet then, but same idea
pete_dushenski: because if we want things that don'
t make sense, they'll happen.
mircea_popescu: jurov they're not racist, they just don'
t like that kinda people.
pete_dushenski: wasn'
t it that argentinian guy's and he sold the domain to gox ?
mircea_popescu: well no. romanians don'
t wanna marry, arabs don'
t wanna fuck.
mircea_popescu: outright prostitution is contentious, but then again this was pre viagra. couldn'
t get it up anyway.
mircea_popescu: <decimation> I think there might be some of that, but I also doubt that britian's 'good men' could get much done trapped in the crazy monkey house of a modern us bureaucracy << no, but they wouldn'
t be, see ? that's the very definition. "good men" is, obama comes and derps, they point and laugh, obama calls the national guard, they shoot it dead.
mircea_popescu: <decimation> the end result has maybe 30% 'original' parts << old men don'
t want the original parts of their wife, they just want a construct that looks like the wife did, in 72.
pete_dushenski: not until one of them makes food that isn'
t better used on livestock
decimation: pete_dushenski: I presume you aren'
t going to one of those 'all-inclusive' resorts populated by the usian middle class?
decimation: well, the other part of this issue is that the fed isn'
t tinkering alone, you also have the euros doing what they do
pete_dushenski: it seems to me that, at this point certainly, there's more general fear when there *isn'
t* tinkering
pete_dushenski: to the extent that they don'
t have to, that no one is holding a gun to their head and they aren'
t starving, why bother ?
ben_vulpes: <decimation> I asked 'why don'
t you just use a cnc mill to shape the parts'. the answer: 1.) they apparently don'
t 'do' computers and 2.) the aircraft were all half-ass made to the blueprints anyway, often with 'by hand' adjustments << uh yeah that's how hand machining worked

t you just use a cnc mill to shape the parts'. the answer: 1.) they apparently don'
t 'do' computers and 2.) the aircraft were all half-ass made to the blueprints anyway, often with 'by hand' adjustments
pete_dushenski: and cubans could desire authenticity all they want and it still won'
t happen
cazalla: pete_dushenski, not sure my comment went through but fyi, the bitcoin center ny is getting into incubating startups if you didn'
t know already :)
mircea_popescu: heh if only. in fact, the state doesn'
t pull all choice into becoming public. that's an insanely optimistic view of the process. the state pulls public choice into meaninglessness, and then ruins all alternative.
ben_vulpes: i don'
t know about that. generally working with any given individual for a few months is enough to suss out their competence.
punkman: thestringpuller: everyone knows autocad, doesn'
t need to be in list
thestringpuller: i don'
t think the undergrads are smart enough to implement lisp
punkman: but it's an option that shouldn'
t exist
punkman: btw remember Shrem signing with openpgpjs, didn'
t even validate
punkman: I don'
t mind the CSS, but the javascript situation is ridiculous
ecstaticpessimst: Oh, I wasn'
t browsing from my home network. maybe I caused some problems for some other people....that would be exciting
punkman: probably not the best analogy for people that don'
t understand lightbulbs
assbot: /hashtag/AggressiveCleavage?src=hash- the /hashtag/GamerGate?src=hash OP I've been in training for my entire life... they pay me for this, y'all...
http://t.co/fSEA2kheDL adlai: good thing you didn'
t answer, might have been implicated in a coup
punkman: so I just got a call from the Congo, didn'
t have enough time to pick it up. wonder what kind of scam it was
adlai: well the us plays the role of global policeman, and suicide-by-cop is not punishable (except for maybe retiring the individual cop early, since he won'
t make a good public face for the department)
whaack: adlai: Haha I guess I should say I've mentally told myself I'm going to do the task - no work has been put in yet. But I just want to build my own bitcoin tool. I probably won'
t wind up using it but I want to prove to myself that I'm able to do it.
mircea_popescu: average usian has never traveled, never read a book in a foreign language, never fucked a woman he didn'
t know etc. his ideas of "isis" are necessarily a reflection of his own pen, nothing else.
