decimation: asciilifeform: yeah I said systemd was a fungus. I agree, I don'

t even get decent cell service up here. Though for the day! Having my own
t-3 pipe put in, and then I can offer real high speed internet. This is not the place to live if you are a high end gamer......... << lol real german angry kid up there.

t file a complaint.
PinkPosixPXE: irc.b-a.link would probably be acceptable, subdomain it. unless you don'
t want to for some reason.
mircea_popescu: and if you make a business, you didn'
t make that business. and really the political problems of the us are whether black dudes pee correctly and how someone drew a cartoon character's tits.

mircea_popescu: the only thing here is that the opinions of the idjits don'
t actually count tho.
decimation: wasn'
t this pretty much settled law everywhere in europe before 1800?
decimation: well, that doesn'
t settle the issue of whether abortion is moral, but it certainly extinguishes "but it's a woman's right!" argument
mircea_popescu: <decimation> undata: abortion is a complex issue that ends up being used as a wedge on both sides << abortion is only "complex" because it is undefined. the actualy issue is, who owns the woman. if the husband owns the wife "abortion" is no problem. if the wife owns the husband, idem. nonsensical "middle of the road" dualities that can'
t stand, where the wife is really a husband all by herself, except not really are ne
undata: video isn'
t terribly convincing
decimation: agreed. There was a time when this wasn'
t the case, but those guys are nearly all dead now
undata: whether that's an opportunity for something better to come along is questionable imo, and goes back to the "can'
t think" problem
decimation: heh well he didn'
t have much in that direction
mircea_popescu: well... you know that saying that, "given an artefact and a situation, the artefact will either work or it won'
t" ?
mircea_popescu: and besides, very deeply human thing, someone on his knees in a church or behind a tree or somehting, "please, i can'
t take this"
decimation: yeah, power without some kind of exclusivity isn'
t power
mircea_popescu: in the simplest form : "don'
t call us, we'll call you"
mircea_popescu: i get why it'd be nice for ruthlesness to carry the connotations meanness properly does. however, something being nice doesn'
t really do anything. if only it did, then the nice people'd be like mages, calling forth reality out of their fucking song.
mircea_popescu: this is like saying "you can'
t get cool people to hang out in places where there's fire because fgire burns".
mircea_popescu: "Another reason mean founders lose is that they can'
t get the best people to work for them. They can hire people who will put up with them because they need a job. But the best people have other options. A mean person can'
t convince the best people to work for him unless he is super convincing. And while having the best people helps any organization, it's critical for startups."
mircea_popescu: "Why? I think there are several reasons. One is that being mean makes you stupid. That's why I hate fights. You never do your best work in a fight, because fights are not sufficiently general. Winning is always a function of the situation and the people involved. You don'
t win fights by thinking of big ideas but by thinking of tricks that work in one particular case. And yet fighting is just as much work as thinking ab
mircea_popescu: obviously sin breeds sin, had the generation of justices called to protect their country in the 1920s done a good job of it, the following generation wouldn'

t readily cure magic. which is why africa is and will remain africa.
undata: doesn'
t seem like you can correct "cannot think"
decimation: like, why not re-engineer a product from scratch when we could buy it off the shelf, because we have slaves working for us and we don'
t need to show positive cash flow!
decimation: a very small part of the us population has any idea what it really means to economically run a business (turn a profit), and that part isn'
t in power
mircea_popescu: there's nothing more corrosive to a state, and a society, and ultimately a culture, than fake money. it's the curse of fucking doom, you don'
t even need enemies if you got that.
decimation: who knows how long it can last, but the above debt issue isn'
t exactly a healthy sign
mats_cd03: "Startups don'
t win by attacking. They win by transcending."
jurov: I don'
t see how shoving the entire protocol in the kernel makes sense << they don'
t want unnecessary context switches

t in the wot?

t care enough to discuss the proxy thing ... people just keep re-bringing it up and highlighting me in the process)

t want to pay attention, why don'
t i understand anything" trap.
kuzetsa: I usually don'
t pay much attention though
kuzetsa: I didn'
t think anyone in this channel could post unless they were at least known in the -otc WoT

t see the youtube video
kuzetsa: hidemyass wasn'
t on the whitelist
kuzetsa: I just use a sane browser that doesn'
t run scripts by default
assbot: Logged on 29-11-2014 08:56:36; kuzetsa: I was mostly annoyed because hidemyass.com has some suspicious scripting and a helluvalotta sponsored advertizing, and pingbacks and cookie leakage to facebook and other social networking sites which I couldn'
t be arsed to audit
cazalla: fluffypony, can'
t keep a stash because it gets drunk
kuzetsa: I default to assuming something complicated enough that I can'
t audit it in under 2 minutes is a bad idea
kuzetsa: I was mostly annoyed because hidemyass.com has some suspicious scripting and a helluvalotta sponsored advertizing, and pingbacks and cookie leakage to facebook and other social networking sites which I couldn'
t be arsed to audit
nubbins`: i would rather it didn'
t get dark until 5:30pm
mats_cd03: and i don'
t get the impression they'd be down with it. american military doctrine encourages autonomy at the company level in a lot of ways
decimation: I'm not so sure myself, but I hope it doesn'
t come to that
mircea_popescu: III. Until rock hits sixty at which point rock becomes an unstoppable killing machine that also beats paper, and would beat scissors, but it can'
t find scissors, because scissors are invisible. So scissors beat paper and avoid rock, and that is called balance.
mats_cd03: looks like mp was right, the price didn'
t budge for black friday
kuzetsa: I wasn'
t impressed by nigga turtles
kuzetsa: I'm old enough to have grown up around the time the original TMNT animated series was still on the air, but that doesn'
