this guy
that gets dirt cheap smokes in canada and
they
taste like you're smoking somebody else's cigarette after

to justify
the
theory
that smoking causes cancer
mike_c: but i distinctly remember comparing what i got charged

to 3x for everything in romania and still felt like i was getting a deal
mircea_popescu: it has exactly zero
to do with women specifically, and
the whiny pretense

tourist and charged 2
to 5 x everything, i learn and use
the fucking local language.
chetty: <mircea_popescu> dub: so one half of our sepcies should require additional
training
to protect its ass from
the other half? << yes.// I doubt it works out
to halves

to deal with
the world on one's own
terms, one's required
to
take aditional
training, and ALSO be
talented.
mircea_popescu: dub: so one half of our sepcies should require additional
training
to protect its ass from
the other half? << yes.

they're spinnin' so fast
they could be weaving wool.

too late
mircea_popescu: sorta like
the smell of "we burned down 5000 hard drives. hopefully ALL
th customers kept good backups
mircea_popescu: (there's
this very distinctive vinegary scent of "o shit we just lost
this warehousefull")
mircea_popescu: nubbins` i know people who go into seizures just fgrom
the smell
mircea_popescu: nubbins`
that's
the old nitro stuff. modern film no lonmger has
the problem

the quality of debian's signatures for instance.
nubbins`: just wondering what possible benefit could be gained by being represented in
the "pgp wot" mentioned in article
pankkake: f2fs would be a good candidate for blockchain storage. anyway, I'm in
the "block size won't go up
that much,
things will happen offchain" camp
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: storing bits
that never need
to flip again ought
to be
technologically simpler - on basic physical level -
than
the normal kind. <<
this is a good point, and i imagine within
the decade we will have special blockchain ssds being made.
