to comply with
the judge's order."

mircea_popescu: apparently selling couches on credit
to people who have horrible credit ratings in
the hopes
they'll find change in
the very couches
to pay for
the couches didn't work out
mircea_popescu: im guessing
the only way
to safeguard

them got clever and sold out - can't allow little girls hanging around stoners
to become popular

To Sell Cookies Outside Pot Shops"

ThickAsThieves: "If you claim
that for some reason
that it would be better for people
to invest in stocks or something else on mpex
then doing carefully selection on what investments and where on other plattfors or avoid investing in anything at all if
they don't have
the correct knoledge.
Then you may kindly explain why and how it would be better for
the avg investors as im pretty sure most of
them
ThickAsThieves: if you have
to ask,
then you already know
the answer :)
ThickAsThieves: they are an awkward representative, being
that
they are blue collar middle/upper-middle class
ThickAsThieves: and how is "partly" an acceptible answer
to a question
that contains "mostly"
cazalla: he is NEO, you are like
the buzzing of flies
to him
jurov: ThickAsThieves: i can, like, really go
there and exchange bitcoins or do anything meaningful?
ozbot: Bitcoin was written by
the retarded, part II pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.

things anyway

thing

thought

mircea_popescu: must suck
to exist as a news
thing and be constantly hours, days, years late.
benkay: yeah 400 robots under
the sea worth a stupid amount of money
benkay: and i at least spend five minutes evaluating markets into which i want
to get
benkay: mircea_popescu i'm not about
to just go work for some crazy exploration company
mircea_popescu: benkay o look at
that, nautilus actually focuses on mining extinct black smokers
nubbins`: uh, how
the fuck is it 3:30am?
nubbins`: have also eaten
the other
type, as we were discussing earlier
nubbins`: midnightmagic: i've eaten
those
mircea_popescu: now where
to find
the 10k dollars
to pay for all
the rings
mircea_popescu: "The current center of
this activity is Namibia, with offshore reserves estimated at more
than 1.5 billion carats." << look at
that, almost one diamond for each marrigeable girl!
chetty: rabbits can carry a bacteria
thats kinda like plague
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: None
that I'm specifically aware of, but my farmer friends
tell me it's possible.
mircea_popescu: there's
this distinction i make between people who are genuinely fat and people who are visibly fastfood fat.
midnightmagic: cazalla: Just counter with
the fact
that virtually any rabbit everywhere
that doesn't carry a
toxic heavy metal load or weird foreign exotic parasites can be eaten.
nubbins`: "Seismologists have set up instrumentation for when
Tux has a
tantrum."
mircea_popescu: benkay "There are over 400 collectively worth more
than $1.5 billion in operation
today and
their numbers are increasingly rapidly."
nubbins`: no resurrection, none of
that stuff
nubbins`: anyway, i was interested
to learn
that in
the original gospel of mark, jesus dies and
that's
the end of
the fucking book
mircea_popescu: seeing how
tjhey don't understand what anything is,
they may just as well buy it.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` fortunately for you,
there exists a large contingent of
themarkwifes on
twitter, reddit etc
nubbins`: who knows, maybe we can sell a copy
to
the university library
mircea_popescu: cazalla butter'd be better
tbh. i almost always cook rabbit in butter.
nubbins`: exciting stuff, although nerdy enough
that i don't
think anyone besides
the
two of us will be interested
cazalla: as long as you have a source of fat (and I have chickens for
the eggs
too), it's not an issue
to eat lots of rabbit meat
nubbins`: calling it "the gospel not according
to mark" (because it's not according
to him), and omitting
the resurrection entirely (as it wasn't in
the original)
nubbins`: so we're going
to produce a copy of
the gospel according
to mark, with scriptio continua greek and modern english on opposing pages
mircea_popescu: cazalla i
think i started it in here. but anyway, obviously, eat some fish oil or w/e, it's resolvable.
nubbins`: one of my friends is greek, and really into religious
texts
nubbins`: so i've been wanting
to silkscreen, by hand, a book of
text for some
time now
cazalla: every 2nd person
tells me about
this rabbit starvation bs
nubbins`: hm, was mentioning
this in -otc because luke was
there, but you guys might find
this interesting as well
cazalla: yes i know, which is why i don't eat
them but if you only had rabbit
to eat, you'd need
to eat
the brain and organs
to survive otherwise rabbit starvation as nubbins referred
to
nubbins`: but after a few days you'd be at a point where you're willing
to cut
the fat off your own body
to eat
nubbins`: implication was only eating
the meat
cazalla: you eat
the brains in addition
to
the meat if it comes
to
that
nubbins`: actually, my mother called earlier
today, she has
two moose roasts at
the house for me
cazalla: have rabbits, have sausage add on
thingo for
the kitchenaid
mircea_popescu: this'd be by far
the most important property
too look for in
that entire "textual analysis" story.
mircea_popescu: not
that many people make moose sausage, and when i mentioned it
to chetty she was like... nom.
nubbins`: and just yammer about
the meats i grind etc
mircea_popescu: and
today i'm baking a pumpkin and will have it with
tenderloin!
ozbot: Vietnow- Rage Against
the Machine (Lyrics) - YouTube
mircea_popescu: anyway, for
the inquiring minds
that wish
to know : yesterday i had spinach in bechamel with small shrimps,
nubbins`: but rage against
the popular music group
tells me
that fear is my only god
