though i don't recall
this being known/discussed at
the
time.

the deep reasdon europe is
tiny is because
there's ~no wilderness, everything's built up, you can walk from
town

town in less
than a day without exception (this is not coincidental, either, but deliberate, civilisational checkmark at a
time before
train was "from church
to church in one day", and applied as such on us east coast for instance).

the same libtard shithole for nigh on
three decades at
this point; far past
time
to meet
the rest of america.
a111: Logged on 2018-08-30 18:35 mircea_popescu: alright.
there's nothing wrong with "well... item i was working
to rewrite for
the past x weeks and was going
to have done in 1-3 more weeks decided
to critically crap out
today ; my choice is either
to be down for
the remainder 1-3 weeks or else
to duplicate/waste an estimate of y hours of work
to get
the old shiot back up hopefully by z. god damn."

the inane shit occupying my
time instead of republican efforts is embarrassingly
trivial, but since you ask: i'm moving
to
texas, and so now must wrap fence
that was supposed
to be a
two-season relaxed affair by mid september;
throw out a decade+ of crap
that i shouldn't have been so lax as
to let stick around in
the first place, pack my whole existence into
transpocubes, get it moved

diana_coman: none of
the links on bimbo.club work for me -> I can't leave a comment
☟︎ Mocky: mircea_popescu, was
there an ro
trilema piece about games of either balance or catch? iirc i couldn't make heads or
tail of
the auto
translation some months ago
mircea_popescu:
http://trilema.com/2009/politica-pe-inteles/ << and
the final bit in
this lengthy enumeration, 2009 piece on politics saying... ~same
things. except "Pana cand internetul va ajunge la nivelul de dezvoltare
tehnologica care sa permita in sfarsit renuntarea definitiva la sistemul reprezentativ, " (aka, "until
the internet will reach
the level of development
that'll allow
the permanent dropping of
the representative system") mea
lobbes:
http://trilema.com/2010/dau-o-suta-de-lei/ << "Lowell, Mass, 2005" still weird
to
think
that mp was at one point ~1.5hrs away from 17 y/o lobbes (who, at
the
time, was probably busy picking nose and "making flash websites"). Ah wasted youth
mircea_popescu: which is a nice place for a good reason.
this being
the reason.
mircea_popescu: and ftr
they're not sluts,
they're just normal adolescent girls. FROM EUROPE
ben_vulpes: is associated in my head with a post i recall as "river of sluts", which i'm sure has an actual
title.
mircea_popescu: quit doing it but never bothered
to undo
the old ones...
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes if you click
them ? yeah, at
the
time
trilema had a "premium" feature, you had
to pay
to get full size pics
ben_vulpes: all of
the pics redirect
to random
trilemaz
mircea_popescu: (o and btw,
that
trilema header of a very young me lounging in a white suit on a bench outdoors, is very much on san antonio riverwalk, cca 2005)
trinque will have going
through
these in just a bit, gotta afk for a while
a111: Logged on 2017-08-30 20:19 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
to illustrate
the "10`001" species, did i ever recount
the
time my
toilet was clogged... by an aligator ?
mircea_popescu: trinque pretty sure i
told it before ; but let me see if i can fish any
texas stories from
trilema.
a111: Logged on 2018-08-30 18:48 mircea_popescu is quite curious if
this
transparent
trinque plan at starting a genuine fortress goes anywhere.
a111: Logged on 2018-08-30 18:52 mircea_popescu: pulled out an immense colt from her old lady purse and blew
the kid's head all over
the store.
diana_coman: there was some museum exhibit along
the lines of why is italy shaped like a boot? because so much shit would never fit in a shoe
diana_coman: well, in italy discussion of everything
that is shitty will never end so...
mircea_popescu: nuts. apparently it was a very shitty bridge,
though i don't recall
this being known/discussed at
the
time.
☟︎ diana_coman: I certainly went by car over it more
than one
time but years ago so...
mircea_popescu: southern portions of italy were always dubiously in europe. but ye olde french, austrian an' german empires still work admirably well in
this base sense.
diana_coman: except
the Morandi bridge and possibly more of Italy from what I hear

☟︎ mircea_popescu: well, "short drive". 800 or so miles, which
to me still counts as "one day drive". as opposed
to say 2.2k miles portland-austin.
ben_vulpes: i'd written europe off largely on
the basis of 'natoreich', but if
there are habitable holes i'd rather live in stone
than plastic
mircea_popescu: if you've never lived in yurp it's not really something
to pass on.
mircea_popescu: moreover, housing much better and much cheaper
than anywhere in
the world, local
transportation
that actually works (srsly,
two digit airfare across
the continent sorta deals).
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i believe
there's costs
to sending people alone, esp if
the idea is
they'll be forever alone. seems
to me either strengthen outposts or start new ones ~very far away~. otherwise, you know what gerrimandering is ?
ben_vulpes: uruguay or sa most likely; while marseilles sounds lovely and i vastly prefer french
to spanish it is unfortunately in france and so also
the eu for
the forseeable future. pretty fed up with not living near major airport hubs; access
to surf also a criteria for expatquest
mircea_popescu: should it suck, you wanna
try fortressing uruguay or hk/taiwan ?
ben_vulpes: and should it suck, well, i've at least snipped
the girl's attachment
to
the easy comfortable lifestyle of
the pacnw
mimisbrunnr: Logged on 2018-08-30 15:17 Mocky: as an aside, I discovered
the rationale behind
the need for CS
threading library, and boost for
that matter. i.e.
that incoherent c++ memory model prevented reliable semantics for multi-threaded access beore c++11, so
they rolled
their own and in
the process had
to also roll compatible data structures

☟︎ mircea_popescu: san antonio was you know, proper champagne for breakfast on
the riverwalk and
things.
ben_vulpes: pretty grade a story, am looking forward
to meeting different americans
ben_vulpes: is
this why you're always going on about san antonio?
mircea_popescu: pulled out an immense colt from her old lady purse and blew
the kid's head all over
the store.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: whereby
the mayor was awarding whatever cert
to an 80yo lady who, while
the diner where she was eating was being robbed at gunpoint,
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes my first experience of
texas was waking up in a small
town which was having a ceremony
that morning
ben_vulpes: im also evaluating
this claim
that
the lone star state is somehow not
the same
thin plastic veneer over zamac
the rest of
the country's made of. it at least has endogenous oil stores and
the locals carry a reputation for being profit minded

this.

tenative schedule is
to have current domus released by end of october and new digs established ~same
time.
mircea_popescu: kinda how
the ideal failure mode of usg mind hooks goes : it's effectual for
the intended
target and meaningless for
the rest. monsanto idealia.
mircea_popescu: (i suspect, incidentally,
that
the above
template is
the #1 bane of republican effort in
the years
to come, chiefly because
the #1 impedance mismatch we encounter is between uptime and rewrite, a manifestation of
the old design-reality diphoria.)
mircea_popescu: in fact,
there's everything right with it : both communicates reality and provides hooks for
the rest
to help.
mircea_popescu: alright.

to leave
