mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo just between you and me and anyone who might care to listen in, i don't like monkeys. none, at all. would not object to a plan to exterminate all monkey types, nor do i see much value in preservation of images, records and such.
pete_dushenski: au contraire, i just don't play with wimminz who aren't sufficiently independent and self-made to warrant losing their maiden names !
pete_dushenski: ha, tell me something i don't know
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: ok so travispatron grabbed a quote from an article of mine without proper attribution or link. i wouldn't have known had he not left a comment on my original article with an embedded link back to his rip-off. the gall. anyways, i do up an 'unprofessional' article clarifying the do's and don't of blogging and commenting. he continues to ostrich. life goes on for another few months. he hoity-toitel
mircea_popescu: TravisPatron dun sweat it too much, i don't think pete_dushenski aims to be all that professional
mircea_popescu: gabrielradio i just don't think it can be done.
pete_dushenski: i'm always amazed how many people don't even read them
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller if i wanted to be a usian slumlord, i'd buy a decrepit building, hold auditions for (nude) black women under 25, on the premise that they get to stay there free, but they don't get to say no to any cock.
mircea_popescu: "he could have at least apologized so i could say "hey, someone doesn't apologize if they didn't do anything" instead of this weak sauce "they don't get arrested if they didn't do anything".
mircea_popescu: what do you even know of mexico ? you ever been there ? and i don't mean fucking cancun with arizona university sluts.
asciilifeform: 2) cannot be reinstalled (i don't have the tapes, or the tape drive) even if you could obtain another.
assbot: Logged on 20-10-2015 22:16:14; jurov: maybe it's just me but i don't like porn zooming all in to genitalia and spending minutes there, especially in this time of huge HD screens
shinohai: I don't think it's far-fetched either.
mircea_popescu: phf> i suspect that failures in this case are seen as being on bleeding edge, sort of meta-meta-maker << maybe the truth is, the people who buy teslas don't have anywhere to go anyway.
BingoBoingo: I don't get how they can be happy with just a 200 mile range before refilling
jurov: maybe it's just me but i don't like porn zooming all in to genitalia and spending minutes there, especially in this time of huge HD screens ☟︎
mircea_popescu: No they weren't. Leaving aside morality, cheating on your wife means that you haven't fully connected to her, or have lost some of that connection. You don't have to be Don Draper to pull that off. "Well, I want to be as suave as he is, I want to pick up girls like he can." It's the same disconnectedness. You could do it, too, then you'll lose the ability to be deeply connected to someone. You can't do both sim
mircea_popescu: "But I want to be a ladies man like Don Draper. Back then it was easier, because affairs were more acceptable."
mircea_popescu: i don't need any cable where i can't see it nor anything but cable tyvm.
mircea_popescu: <ascii_field> how is this a mistake? << see there. i don't say such.
mircea_popescu: i wonder why women don't dig in!
ascii_field: this works because infantry is a machine (yes) not man. i.e. soldier hasn't the choice of 'i don't feel like it'
assbot: Logged on 20-10-2015 16:22:05; mircea_popescu: because why would they ? if they know the topic they don't need to search google, what the fuck is that you know, "i would like to see what the republican party says, i wonder if they have a website". on the other hand if you don't know it, why would you trust google. "i wonder if thye have a republican party in bali. o look, republicanpartyinbali.blogspot.com comes up first."
mircea_popescu: i don't get this nonsense. who the fuck gave her the autority to overturn the election.
mircea_popescu: because why would they ? if they know the topic they don't need to search google, what the fuck is that you know, "i would like to see what the republican party says, i wonder if they have a website". on the other hand if you don't know it, why would you trust google.

lobbes: Me: "I don't want to spend more money"
punkman: I don't think I'd buy gold coin off random guy on the street either
asciilifeform: 'If you cut me I don't bleed, I pour out AWESOMENESS!' << from BingoBoingo's link
shinohai: I don't have a "latest" copy of it. 0.11.0 crashed on me several times, not that I needed it anyway.
Xplosionist: I don't honestly know. Hours, to be sure, but less than a day.
mircea_popescu: <punkman> although I don't see how online makes sense << i expect they expect you to amazon the bottles.
punkman: although I don't see how online makes sense
wyrdmantis: yeah, it's not a real, school, it's a course... like a master. Maybe you don't know that i'm in italy... we have courses for everything
mircea_popescu: "Girlfriends are another. Girlfriends say: I pretend to believe you when you say you know kung fu, because I love you. The boyfriend says, not hearing anything she said: I'll stay with you until either I know kung fu; or you realize I don't really know kung fu, and my shame makes me hate you. What does it matter? None of this is the real thing anyway."
mircea_popescu: "look honey, you're the size of a cow. and i don't mean the cow's udder. i mean the whole enchicowada."
mircea_popescu: They were completely fabricating incidents in order to make it look like I not only belonged there, but needed to be there quite a bit longer. Of course, every report ended with them swooping in to save the day and resolve things in-house. For those that don't see why they'd do such a thing, most (yes, sadly it's most) foster parents do it for the MONEY. I ended up staying in 3 different homes. #1) I slept in a storage
mircea_popescu: When I was 15-17 I was in DCFS custody for (honestly) "insubordinance". Don't ever underestimate the power of a sociopathic mom and a corrupt juvenile system. Eventually I found myself placed in a foster home under the pretext that I'd be on my way back home as soon as I "straightened up" and flew right. Among the many dozens of pathetic failings of the system I was now privy to, this post reminded me of one in particu
mircea_popescu: also happens to be how various nuts end up at the doctor. "what i do doesn't work" "don't do that" "ARE YOU KIDDING ME!??!?!?!"
asciilifeform: 'this problem will not be solved for you personally, pray that your grandchildren get to live like people' <--> 'but i don't want to have children, i want to live like people ~myself~' ☟︎
mircea_popescu: or moreover, perhaps, but i don't think you have the right idea.
HeySteve: I don't know where the money goes but they are raking in all these deposits
mircea_popescu: it's ten minutes to set up and ten minutes of use to make itself indispensable. the chick can code, i don't remember a tool becoming THIS FUCKING NEEDED in recent times.
mircea_popescu: how about "i don't feel like wasting any of the women i can stand enough to fuck on this fool's errand" ?
gabrielradio: so i for one don't find that many drawbacks to parenthood
mircea_popescu: yet another reason i don't feel inclined to procreate : i don't actually know of a group for whose sake i'd be willing to lie to eventual daughters.
assbot: Logged on 16-10-2015 09:05:26; BingoBoingo: So far October has been an frustratingly boring part of Bitcoin. I am worried though that Qntra is crossing into its second year and people don't want a giftwrapped chance to write a first story. Is qntra insufficiently established or does this seem too much of a trap. I the cost of fucking up in #b-a seeming too high? I am confused.
mircea_popescu: portance of "gay marriage" in the world is not at all the important question-- it may be extremely relevant, or not at all, but that's irrelevant. Why we're stuck with "bipolar disorder" until, I don't know, the neo-analysts return with their talk of "repressed thyroid energy" or something, but emphatically not because we discover anything qualitatively new about bipolar.
HeySteve: I don't really know the other meaning. people run a pretend league based on real teams and players?

BingoBoingo: HeySteve: I don't hava a handle on it. I'm not sure it is news at all. It is scam on many levels. My only reservation and the source of my disinterest is... I'm not sure actual people are affected
BingoBoingo: I don't remember you writing for the other place since qntra was born, gotta have that blue balls
mircea_popescu: its not that i suspect the holy grail is spirited there. i just don't grok what it does is all.
mircea_popescu: because i don't now, as i didn't in 2013, understand this.
ascii_field: No, it isn't, or else they would be using both, wouldn't they? << i don't follow the logic
mike_c: i don't even think it'll matter much longer. html5 will present all the necessary security holes you need in plain old html
shinohai: I don't doubt that a real FBI agent might say the same.
mircea_popescu: i don't want to connect these, so infinity.
ascii_field: at least ~i~ don't
asciilifeform: i don't see anything in the structures that would suggest a substantial difference in cost per kg.
BingoBoingo: I don't remember that one
phf: and then there's always bitcoind source, which is infinite rabbit hole. i'm studying the source by rewriting chunks in cl, and the more i learn, the more i know i don't know
phf: that's one way of putting it, except i don't have enough leverage to last me to the end, so technically no
asciilifeform: 'I don't care if your language lawyers tell you gcc is right. THIS WILL CAUSE PEOPLE TO GET HACKED.' << this is not hundred percent idiotic. the c programming language is specified in such a way, with sufficiently pervasive 'undefined behaviours' and nonstandardized but inescapable routines, that it is ~physically impossible~ to program in it as-specified ☟︎
gabrielradio: If you're a native Romanian speaker with a very good grasp of English, I am interested to work out an arrangement for your translation of my older Romanian articles. Don't hesitate to make contact for this purpose. << mircea_popescu , is this still of interest to you?
davout: "Sucks, but I don't want to sterilize perfectly good satire just so people don't have to worry or think." <<< the world would be a much better place if this stance was more common
nubbins`: this election is seriously the most fun i've had since i don't know when
funkenstein_: more news from people I don't know
Duffer1: nah i don't know what to write about
mircea_popescu: i still don't even know wtf they mean by "carbon"
mircea_popescu: don't give me that, i had computers that worked back when i was playing golden axe on them.
mircea_popescu: i don't claim to be a fucking code eagle. i claim to live in a world where i don't have to be.
mircea_popescu: i don't see how a sub's mod woulkd change because of the packet order.
pete_dushenski: don't ask me where 'keyserver.mattrude.com' came from when i linked from btcalpha. funny lookin' thing.
binaryatrocity: and I think California makes more cheese now, so I don't even know
mircea_popescu: I'm going to repeat this because I know people are going to misunderstand me: the system that you want is impossible to construct in the framework of modern medicine, if for no other reason than doctors don't read-- derive no benefit from reading. The system does not exist, and you cannot create it. Psychiatry is politics; medicine is the justice system. Pharma are the opposing lawyers, and doctors are the jury. Th
phf: mircea_popescu: i don't think that's the case. there's some magic happening, because there are no provissions to do a key refresh yet my formerly expired key still works.
mircea_popescu: i don't think you're enough of a pedophile to give a shit about what teenaged women do anyway.
punkman: I don't see any mention of sha1 in the rfc regarding subkey sigs etc
assbot: Logged on 12-10-2015 22:51:13; punkman: btw if you don't want the signatures on your subkeys being sha1, I think --cert-digest-algo is the option that needs changing
punkman: btw if you don't want the signatures on your subkeys being sha1, I think --cert-digest-algo is the option that needs changing ☟︎
mircea_popescu: iirc i have a "why you don't want to chain hashes" thing somewhere.
jurov: ^ wiki material here. but i don't have acct
mircea_popescu: " Is there a natural economic equilibrium price where, say, a U Chicago grad can do no economically productive work at all but still be paid to use Instagram? Let me be explicit: my question is not should we do this, my question is that since this is precisely what's happening already, is it sustainable? What is the cost? I don't have to run the numbers, someone already has: it's $150/mo for a college grads, i.e. t
mircea_popescu: no qualms with that. and he who is in the driver seat is the driver. excuse me while i don't stick around with sweving cars.
assbot: Logged on 12-10-2015 08:29:48; punkman: I don't understand this
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-10-2015#1296821 << that's not the problem, i don't need you to let me in. the problem is that you don't have the means to distinguish between one "humanities" and another humanities. that's the fucking problem. you can sort out a bad engineer in all of five minutes, just ask pointed questions. ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 12-10-2015 04:12:18; phf: pete_dushenski: i don't know how successful kesey was at capturing the mind of a schizophrenic, but he certainly was good at relaying an inner state of an acid head. the movie is something else entirely, but still great, since it's basically jack nicholson playing his only role at his best.
danielpbarron: I don't know about this "acting range" of nicholson, but Chinatown is a great film staring him
punkman: I don't understand this ☟︎

mircea_popescu: "no, i just don't like having piss in my ears"
phf: by the way i stopped by some russian bookstore on the way to saunas and spotted this utterly ridiculous shalamov cover http://static.ozone.ru/multimedia/books_covers/1011527549.jpg. i don't even.
mircea_popescu: mmm i don't think that's either intended functionality or a good idea.
phf: although often mocked "you don't understand, i needed to do this". oh you needed, that changes everything
mircea_popescu: "here's the laws and and if you don't like it, you can leave" "i'll go join the people that'll fuck you up" "o wait you can't leave" "does that mean you admit your laws are dumb ?" "nope" "does that make you a hypocritical idiot ? " "no it doesnt!!1" ☟︎
mircea_popescu: <assbot> Logged on 25-03-2015 05:16:55; asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if you have a favourite << i don't imagine the 6 months caught us any fish, but anyway.
mircea_popescu: why ? i suppose the man likes to read. i don't imagine he intends to actually use it.
punkman: yeah, but I don't see why
cazalla: made a bunch of spicy baked beans as a snack food but tbh, i don't think i'll bother growing broad beans again (was the first time)
cazalla: next time around i don't think i'd bother with swaddling and just go straight for the sleeping bag, but to each their own
