mircea_popescu: somebody linked recently a post about feral children in
the romanian sewers
nubbins`: wait, is
this why wizards grow
tits?
mircea_popescu: men don't normally, but
then again female is
the default gender so if you vegetate for long enough you will start exhibiting feminine
traits)
mircea_popescu: and it's overall a collapse into feminity (as it is women
that mature over being hurt
mircea_popescu: they just want
to be hurt.
there's a difference between being hurt and mattering.
LordPutin: myspace is making a comeback
they're implementing bitcoin wallets on
their site now
nubbins`: not
that a white kid getting killed in fucking syria matters
mircea_popescu: course most of
that happened before mothers were automatised away from
the childrearing process, so
traditionally it's noted as "i want my mommy"
nubbins`: whoever wrote
that has a point, even if badly expressed.
they want
to stop being an utterly useless shitbag and do something "that matters"
mircea_popescu: where
they essentially go "i waaaaaaantttt my myyyyspaceeee"
mircea_popescu: people with actual
trench experience, under actual shelling, and all
that will
tell you
that most noobs have
this cry
time
nubbins`: "i'm
tired of being a fighter. i want
to manage my facebook reputation"
mircea_popescu: I want
to run away
to Syria and become a fighter, or a pirate singing sea shanties, or a cossack in
the Orenburg steppe, or
to join a Chechen
teip and steal horses from
the lowlanders.
mircea_popescu: "I’m
tired of university. I’m
tired of having a fucked up sleep schedule, and studying. I’m
tired of
the fucking
time I waste on
the internet liking ironic meme pages and managing my facebook reputation, and shitposting on ylilauta.
nubbins`: ;;later
tell duffer1 latest i heard is
that
there were unspecified production problems with
the coins
nubbins`: ;;later
tell benkay i don't hate
the look, i hate
the fact
that it's barely functional. ;(
nubbins`: Mats_cd03: i'll make you a shirt if you pay for it (how many
times have i said
this on irc!)
mircea_popescu: ;later
tell benkay i'd say Bitcoin is
the name, like Coca-Cola, and bitcoins is
the generic, like give me
two cokes
jurov: me
too, i'm not disclosing anything further
chetty: I just find all
the
theories about who and what MP is amusing
antephialtic: heh, OK. well
that makes
things a bit more clear
jurov: chetty but srs, you're on
the first one
too, no?
jurov: yes, half of
this chan is MP
ozbot: The stuff all good conspiracy
theories start with pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
benkay: ;;google
trilema conference
antephialtic: jurov: It's apparently a very common name in Romania. I was under
the assumption
that
the whole MP persona is a farce
BingoBoingo: antephialtic:
Their writing styles aren't similar at all
jurov: i have met her in person and saw her descend upon
the
talk with an ipad
ozbot: Weev Is Still in Jail Because
the Government Doesn't Know What Hacking Is | Motherboard
jurov: antiephialtic, MP does not post
to
trolltalk,
the girl does
antephialtic: but
there's probably others
that handle
the money and coding
antephialtic: MPEx is definitely a
team of people. I
think "MP" is
the one on IRC,
tweeting, writing
trilemma posts, and posting on bitcointalk
benkay: and still find
time
to post nudes constantly
benkay: best indicator of btc market
tops
benkay: that man once
tried
to get me
to build a
thing
benkay: jurov: would
this be cavirtex?
jurov: benkay,
the VTX case comes
to mind
benkay: toffoo what is
this "last week's mess" referred
to below your link?
benkay: additionally,
this is visible on
the 796 "exchange"
benkay: gracias,
toffoo. apologies for mispelling your name.
benkay: ;;later
tell
toffo link
to asicminer missed div dox pretty plox?
chetty: wasn't
that on bitcointalk?
benkay: forehead reduction,
though
benkay: ;;later
tell mircea_popescu hey if you have it on hand i'd appreciate a link
to where dr forehead claims
that since he outperformed
the scams he made money for his clients
benkay: does anyone recall
the post where dr. forehead claimed
that since he outperformed
the scams he made money for his clients?
benkay: stahp chetty stahp i cannae
take na more
chetty: for
those needing more derp
BingoBoingo: Unless it means a member of
the House of Lords on
the payroll
BingoBoingo: Apparently
to see
the cool parts of
the Derp
though, you have
to be vouched for and stuff. Like its some sort of Heavy Derp cartel
benkay: that's as may be, but
the link i posted is derpy as hell on its own.
BingoBoingo: benkay:
They have a lot of non-public subfora it seems
benkay: you don't have
to have an account
to read
BingoBoingo: I kinda want
to make an account
there
to read
the derp, but... I know
they's boot me
the first
time I leaked some derp and prevent me from enjoying more derp
BingoBoingo: Traveling among more and less rural Mid 'Murican shitholes it becomes clear
the difference between a
TV news crew in Quincy Illinois versus one in St Louis Mo or Chicago
BingoBoingo: There are reasons certain people get
to be on
TV and radio and others aren't
benkay: what's
the wpm on a podcast?
benkay: low information density
to boot.
chetty: haha now
thats
true, and video - well
they want my eyes and my ears??
BingoBoingo: chetty: A big problem with bitcoin podcasts is
the voices of
the presenters in many cases, just weren't meant
to be heard
benkay: i suppose
that presumes being able
to put one's
thoughts into coherent words instead of babbling into a microphone.
BingoBoingo: chetty: My objection
to
the video and podcasting is
that when I digest information on my own
time I want
to do it in an aesthetic environment of my choice.
benkay: it's downright baffling, chetty.
take, for instance,
the podcast noted above. how much more work is it
to do
that
thing
than
to just write out one's
thoughts?
BingoBoingo: Well, Bill Murray aligns himself with
the Usurper regime from chicago
chetty: the
trend
to video for everything is awful. people
to lazy
to write/read :(
benkay: implicit due
to previous conversations is
the notion
that america doesn't produce worthwhile comedy.
benkay: upshot was "honey, if
there's no
text, and it ain't comedy, i ain't interested."
benkay: babydoll wanted me
to watch some maddow
thing about god i don't even remember
BingoBoingo: I dunno really why people
try
to force information into audio or video without offering
the same in
text anyway.
benkay: oh yeah
the bitcoin podcast
BingoBoingo: Turns out it was a site
they collaborated on
BingoBoingo: They suggested a link as an example of how I could make my site look "better" I pointed out
the linked site should die in a
tire fire.
benkay: oh? i must've missed
this.
BingoBoingo: Eh, I
think when I was out friday someone I gave less gentle design suggestions
to was
trying
to hunt me down when I came back
to
the logs
benkay: and i appreciate
that you all let me fix it in my own
time, with only
the occasional gentle suggestions.
BingoBoingo: Well, comfortable
they can be.
They
tend
to just shit crap
though.
benkay: their os is utter shite, but
their dev
tools make it possible for
the averagely-intelligenced
to participate in
the big corporate software development dance.
benkay: microsoft's dev
tools are pretty good is
the funny
thing about
that statement
BingoBoingo: The big underlying
theme its whole run
though has been people hating an OS by a company primarily concerned with making cruddy dev
tools
