mircea_popescu: have them hook up an irc session to a projector, we can chat during.
mircea_popescu: so go, talk, why not. don't put up with any substantial shit, nor with more coincidental shit than you feel like. if they don't like it, they can shove it.
diana_coman: ftr the above comes after I pretty much demolished (at a kids' party of all places) the "content" the poor new lecturer had inherited
diana_coman: in other possible interesting things: I got invited to give a talk to students at local uni (Reading, UK) on "bitcoin and blockchain"; personally I'm not all that keen on it but given the recent ideas regarding reach out and all that, I am at least considering this; any input on this is welcome ☟︎
BingoBoingo: Translation: The local commies know they can't stop MBGA
asciilifeform: ( and where next emperor tallied up the ev and ended up ordering ~all~ boats bigger than fisherman's tub, burned... )
mircea_popescu: and that's pretty much how the upswing cycle begun every other time.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: wasn't even all 'paper' tho -- recall the enuch vizier d00d, picking up elephants, giraffes, from africa in 1500s on maersk-sized boat
mircea_popescu: as i say -- the young hussies already are looking for slavery and abjection, in contrast to their stupid mulas and stramulas. from rotherham to anytown, usa, the 15 yo is saying "please, beat, rape and light me on fire -- anything whatsoever but having to talk with my kinmorons." ☟︎
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform they got time. so do i. it'll make more, eventually.

asciilifeform: 'hey we bought the beethoven-maker and it dun make no moar beethovens'
asciilifeform: i suspect they're quite disappointed with the investment then
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform for actually doing things worth the mention. that's all.
mircea_popescu: yes, it's true, europe is in a rut, beyond ridiculous. this is what europe fucking does, and has been doing, it cycles. yes there's oodlebunches of useless old women about, but already the young cunts are very much oriented upwards.
mircea_popescu: let them credit the fed general acct with as cheap items as can be had in counterparty for it, so the fed extends "college debt" to the above morons, so they have kids and move europe outta the present lulz.
asciilifeform: it still aint 100% clear to me for what exactly china needs the white devil. recall when the brits had to hook'em on opium , to buy tea ? ( cn prior would take only gold/silver as payment , and brits were running low )
mircea_popescu: well ? the FACT of the matter is that reproduction is -ev. always was, too. so little yellow men wish to participate in the affairs of humanity by essentially taking on the role of the human female ? this is a crime now ? should be hated for attempt to participate as best can ?
asciilifeform: i do recall a mircea_popescu thread where ' i dun care how they run the barn, i'ma drink the milk ' or how did it go.
mircea_popescu: and YET not elicit immune response. this is a small thing to buy ?
a111: Logged on 2017-11-03 12:41 asciilifeform: i still dun fully grasp the middle kingdom's 'feed the enemy until he dies of old age' philosophy, so cannot comment
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform recall http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-03#1732326 ? here's what it buys them : mp can't now declare racial fatah upon the little yellow men. because why would i, so they're kindly keeping large numbers of white idiots around to reproduce. as per http://trilema.com/2015/the-genetics-of-intelligence/ this isn't even a bad move. so they bought the managing to go around with http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-08#1859521 ☝︎☝︎
BingoBoingo: My hypothesis is that the short ones look less capable of pursuing their bag, among other disadvantages
asciilifeform: lolhow's that ? does mircea_popescu throw ladder down from dirigible to the tall ones?
BingoBoingo: Either way the virtue will be intact, but the shorter she is the greater the chance sack gets grabbed
BingoBoingo: Depends on how tall the girl is
asciilifeform: lulzy. BingoBoingostan struck me as place where you could , per the chinese proverb, 'send virgin with sack of gold coins from one end to other, and keep both virtue and coin'
BingoBoingo: And parroted trope about how boring Uruguay is
BingoBoingo: He also parroted idiot Uruguayo line about the insecurity
asciilifeform: aaa so extension cord back to usa, lolk
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: This one was gringo
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: This guy claimed to have an older business partner back in the states, moved on to Patagonia after a month and a half
asciilifeform: they have these in BingoBoingstan?!
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: these loltrepreneurs, the folx milling about in 'co-op', fearing mumps, building alt-fetlifes -- what did they live on ?
BingoBoingo: Can't fix stupid, but you can try to drop hints that might lead to stupid making itself suffer
BingoBoingo: I just suggested the next time he's smoking out in his hovel that he watch that Citizen4 Snowden documentary
BingoBoingo: One of the fellows ranted and raved about Masonic conspiracies yet advanced the position "I don't see why anyone would be advantaged by not using GoogleSpyDevice as their 'conputer'"
mircea_popescu: what's usg if not this "singular effect, choose your paper wrapper"
mircea_popescu: whole point of their exercise is "you can be a slave to stupid empire EVEN WITHOUT traditional trappings".
BingoBoingo: "Geographically independent" and Google tethered
mircea_popescu: precisely. "we're the sinowhores" 5th column.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> all code that ever runs anywhere is getting loaded in head. there's no way out of this. << Relatedly in my times here I have met a number of "digital nomads" who use chromebooks as issued by Google and evangelize for them. Rather than "loaded chromeOS into head" they strike me as "leased head to google"
mircea_popescu: in the immortal words of mr oover, "i say they is not white man."
asciilifeform: they like the shit just fine. 'vivir en mierde'(tm)
mircea_popescu: and, amusingly enough, they're ~still~ all into "multiculti" bs and still not "oh, here's the keys tmsr, lead us out of the shit".
BingoBoingo: Well, Russia can't afford to buy USG.blue
asciilifeform suspects the story is a rich lulzmine with many gold veins yet to appear
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: ty, fodder for Qntrapressing submitted by alf
mircea_popescu: make moar comission to study russian spying ynot.
diana_coman: neah, he wanted to visit the town
mircea_popescu: well, i can say : the town is london, so i can understand why he'd rather sit in airport.
deedbot: http://qntra.net/2018/10/usg-and-victims-deny-allegations-of-chinese-ownership-of-their-implanted-servers/ << Qntra - USG And Victims Deny Allegations Of Chinese Ownership Of Their Implanted Servers
diana_coman: yes, I would honestly simply stay a few days in that town then at least, but what can I say
diana_coman: on my way back to costa rica I had this connecting flight in Madrid, a few hours gap, had something to eat, no problem
mircea_popescu: i used to connect through frankfurt with a 6ish hour gap for lunch and merriment, back in the days.
BingoBoingo: Nah, see this is the new artisanally diverse aviation. How dare you impose your engineering on these snowflake turbines!
asciilifeform: all the speed of dirigible, with none of the comforts!11
asciilifeform had that same 30 hrs gap -- in bucharest
mircea_popescu: only way to fly -- rarely.
diana_coman: but yes, apparently 30 hours gap great thing
mircea_popescu: "actually, let me correct that : we're going back for sure. precisely how far back is still under trial."
diana_coman: honestly, this is how it sounded! kind of reason why I asked him what airline was that because it's the first time I hear such a thing
mircea_popescu: "dear belovedly departed passengers, this is your captain speaking. we seem to have taken off without some parts that are kinda needed, so we'll be going back. hopefully."
diana_coman: anyways, he'll surely be able to give details when he gets online
diana_coman: back from wherever they got but surely not from london, lol! I understood it was the type of "took off, flew a bit, something wrong, going back because can't risk attempting to cross the atlantic"
mircea_popescu: "now pass me that grease bucket"
mircea_popescu: good thing he placed a 30 hour gap there lmao. "what are you going to do in heathrow for that long !? " "fly back and forth repairing planes." ☟︎
asciilifeform: 'uhm, turbine's loose, lemme go to the depot 11000km from here'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i never heard of this lol. maybe they only got as close as halfway-1.
mircea_popescu: this sounds so fucking suspicious lmao. did they leave without all the mocky surveillance ? :D
diana_coman: the great american airlines managed to repair the plane on their own - this time
mircea_popescu: diana_coman wait, HE repaired the plane ?!
mircea_popescu: what's teh dalih habeeb like ?
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, in London; though he did have a weird flight - went back to New York, repaired plane, went back ☟︎
mircea_popescu: that might be the record jump. where'd you two meet ?!
deedbot: diana_coman updated rating of Mocky from 1 to 5 << Runs towards scary stuff rather than away from it. Met irl.
mircea_popescu: which drives the fundamental difference between zek and republican : some people are satisfied before satisfaction is on the table ; some only after. that's all.
mircea_popescu: and the "i have nfi what excel is doing" observation does not reduce to "i have not fully read and thoroughly understood" ; but instead it reduces to "i have read and fully understood -- and i fill overquickly". ie, "i am dumb, easily satisfied and easily amused".
mircea_popescu: because no, the "i know ~exactly~ what the computer is doing" declaration is not optional. exactly like socrates' observation, "the man claiming no political system has political system", exactly so, whatever the claim, to run code on machine equals the declaration of having fully read and thoroughly understood. there's no wiggle room. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: what exactly is to be deemed the difference between bunch of retards gathering together to worship gappy nonsense in some cave and bunch of retards gethering together to pretend like they know wtf the computer is doing, in some concrete re-enactment of a cave ?
mircea_popescu: i can't detect ambitiously indolent stupidity has changed in any way since the days we fed them to the lions.
asciilifeform: possibly to sufficiently expert entomologist, the current idjicy is linearly mappable to the older one, even; i have nfi
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform everything's explicit to the sufficiently trained eye. as they are unexplicit through confusion to moron today -- so they were 2k years ago. as directly visible to me then, so visible now.
asciilifeform: current lot of derps seems to make'em up as they go
mircea_popescu: (which is ~literally~ what fucking happened, "i was made by people too stupiud to make sense, BELIEVE in me" is the cry the guerre of the stupidgod.)
asciilifeform: the old christian claptrap , that birthed current pantsuit, at least made the creeds explicit
mircea_popescu: unremarkably enough, the pantsuit religion is then "the religion of love". cuz god "so loved his children", he gave them windows and asked them to use it.
mircea_popescu: no sense, but people themselves before abstract concepts!!" aka "if you really loved me you'd buy this house/ring/kid/whatever yo ucan't afford" etc.
mircea_popescu: anyway, the whole " Naturally, since these types of morality focus more on abstract concepts rather than the people themselves, expect some rather nasty extremism." http://trilema.com/2014/the-definitive-tract-on-sociopathy/#selection-71.327-71.472 item has a lot of bearing here : the only way empire mind can make it to the end is through a LOT of jumping across gaps. thus they came up with this doctrine of love, "this makes
asciilifeform: let's also recall the fella who ate a boeing.
mircea_popescu: (i think trinque especially enjoys reading these)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeh, just taking opportunity to overexplicitly state for teh logs.
asciilifeform: i suspect that we dun have a point of disagreement re subj; i got stuck on 'run'
mircea_popescu: this is what breaks the imperial brain, too : we stick to our trees being continuous, like blockchain. to zek -- luxury, can not be afforded.
asciilifeform: aha not run, once finally cut off with welding torch from the items that are to be run
asciilifeform: i dun disagree that that there's the 2 options
asciilifeform: either loaded or thrown
mircea_popescu: it's the cornerstone of the human condition.
mircea_popescu: all code that ever runs anywhere is getting loaded in head. there's no way out of this.

"which isn't a promise ? and if it stops working, what, time for linux-backports-compat-compat, a set of scripts to update the set of scripts that updates...?" "YES!"
