mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2016/what-lasts-forever/ << mandatory reading at this juncture.
mircea_popescu: gotta be teh dreamers, that's the only way the batshit insane expectations of 8 bn heros in their own stories can be "satisfied" after a fashion. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: well yes, because... cheaper than jail, lol. which is cheaper than, you've guessed it, trying to actually live in physical world.
mircea_popescu: the mtgox idiots frankly don't see why their situation should be any different from the situation of those fyre festival idiots. why are THOSE getting refunds and free tickets "next time" ?
mircea_popescu: 18 years is excessive, yet they regard it as nearly criminally short. 25 more the norm.
mircea_popescu: and this follows very strioctly ands quite necessarily from the workings of moderity / ourdemocracy. what do you need to get into the train ? not the physical ability, the PRIOR CLAIM. restaurant ? anything. and this on top of very extensive "parenting" in the form of mothering.
mircea_popescu: all the has "to show" (that's how they talk, too) is the claim ticket.
mircea_popescu: the physical realisation of the socialist/idiot's dreamed world is NO CONCERN OF HIS.
mircea_popescu: that's the mechanism, very fundamentally imago-logic. this for that, this stands for that, etc.
mircea_popescu: they had this experience where their computer game crashed and mommy bought them another one, because it was their xmas gift or w/e, ie they had THE CLAIM. and then made whole.
mircea_popescu: see, they never lived this experience where they go on horseback, run into vienna, rape some girls.
mircea_popescu: no, no, they don't care about the physical reality. the mental articulation is "1. i have claim ; 2. mommy makes good".
mircea_popescu: this is how they argue with their insignificant others : "oh, i was miss ohio state when i married oyu! i want a couch!"
mircea_popescu: fictive living.
mircea_popescu: the lengthy pile opf chairs that is "our democracy" falls apart the moment you kick any prior out.
mircea_popescu: "jail" is this theoretical construct for online dorks.
mircea_popescu: eh, jail. here's a secret : nobody wants to keep anyone ion jail, it's expensive.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nothing specific. just likew "Karpeles is working on a solution!". what, i can run for miss dumbland just as well as a fat fuck.
mircea_popescu: and as far as these idiots are concerned, 100% of "life" experience comes from tv and such stories, and therefore it logically follows that yes, pretty good ods heel to face turn etc.
mircea_popescu: basically, what's going on here is, the STORY of life wouldn't make sense, ~as a story~, ie it wouldn't be put on tv, if there wasn't a twist here.
mircea_popescu is working on a solution to end world stupid.
mircea_popescu: trinque someone's gotta pay for the hospital bills eh.
mircea_popescu: what fucking part of "usg stole all bitcoin you gave to mtgox long ago" isn't quite plain.
mircea_popescu: the internet really made it obvious i actually don't like people.
mircea_popescu: idiots.
mircea_popescu: myeah
mircea_popescu: i suppose if you're going to be an ustardian empire spearhead, it helps to have no shame and no memory.
mircea_popescu: that silbert schmuck is on his what, 5th "oh, i will change the world" hear him roar only to be used as a cum rag ?
mircea_popescu: lol
mircea_popescu: lol abortive flushing
mircea_popescu: eh, get better suppliers. the chinese only sell the good shit to people who can curse in 4 syllables.
mircea_popescu: most us corps sell their name to local operators in the third world where the peons still believe us > crap.
mircea_popescu: prolly just a license deal.
mircea_popescu: looks more like yet another attempt at the "team" scam. see the pix.
mircea_popescu: preorder, seriously ?
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, http://www.topiaonline.com/
mircea_popescu: it's not so surprising that people who can't fix toilet buy intel chips. "Everyone else does!!1"
mircea_popescu: if the toilet worked it wouldn't need fixing!
mircea_popescu: or w/e, let's phrase it in ourdemocracy terms, "you don't need computers if you did nothing wrong" or however it went.
mircea_popescu: rather.
mircea_popescu: what, you thought http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-20#1659774 was a joke ? it was no fucking joke. the price of ipads is imbecility. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: what fucking fix. they can't open it anymore than they can fuck the woman on the deserted island. "nobody to introduce us!!1" ☟︎
mircea_popescu: but as it is, the problem'd be that their mental object for a toilet does NOT EVEN FUCKING HAVE THE OPENABLE PROPERTY.
mircea_popescu: prior to modernity, one could also not easily picture adult man, with two legs, who could not leave the fucking room.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you ever seen that great bunuel film, "the exterminating angel" ?
mircea_popescu: i hear it made india fabulously wealthy.
mircea_popescu: glwt.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform could. i have this magic want which takes the "would" away.
mircea_popescu: wait until i point out i've never met anyone under 30 who both spoke english and could properly butcher a goat.
mircea_popescu: in fairness i never met a 20something usian who could fix a toilet.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes why are you so preoccupied with toilets, anyway
mircea_popescu: sux.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-23#1660604 << unsurprising, also. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: ty :)
mircea_popescu: project seems well abandoned though.
mircea_popescu: contact id based on pubkey, i have nfi why they think it dun leak metadata ; also no idea why they bundled tor in it.
mircea_popescu: anyway, their contact scheme (summarized/cleanned up : cookie + pubkey + signature with same pubkey) is not terrible. uses rsa, which is a +.
mircea_popescu: you're terrible.
mircea_popescu: we even had the dude's pgp.
mircea_popescu: https://github.com/ricochet-im/ricochet/blob/master/doc/design.md for archival
mircea_popescu: seems a sort of gossipd-over-tor
mircea_popescu: did you look into anything or just being perplexed.
mircea_popescu: it's shorthand for look deeper!
mircea_popescu: check him out, i give him the string to grep, he doesn't, then wants me to control his viewport.
mircea_popescu: no ricochet:w3crim4z7vd4yskd on your page ?
mircea_popescu: if we scropll down a leetal ?
mircea_popescu: aaand ?
mircea_popescu: ...
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not tox, the other one. tox we already lulzed at.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman you know, ~everyone there wears their rucksacks in front like total fucking retards (the REASON that type of bag was invented by zee germanz, and the reason it became popular esp for schoolkids, is that it leverages the weight to improve posture. IF you weart it correctly.)
mircea_popescu: if anyone feels like investigating.
mircea_popescu: chick has a skype, AND a tox thing (it's in the logs) AND a "ricochet" item which i never saw before but seems to make some tall claims.
mircea_popescu: in other random bounties of the sexual fronteer : http://www.collarspace.com/personals/v/1946329/details.htm
mircea_popescu: there is no room for cynocephaly in modern world!
mircea_popescu: which is the true boon of democracy : if everyone must be a people because they look kinda like one, then everything must be something else because it vaguely looks like it, and welcome to the dark ages.
mircea_popescu: a nazi because reasoning through simile!
mircea_popescu: for instance : the reason for eg, "trump is nazi" narrative is possibly mostly based on the observation that country of russia bothers and disturbs country of our democracy just like country of muslim bothers and disturbs the good country of africa and therefore the russians must be nazis and probably the muslims are also spies! notwithstanding that they have serious problems with comprehending basic crypto etc. trump must be
mircea_popescu: the five provinces of the world. wu shu or w/e it';s called.
mircea_popescu: country of africa (good) ; country of muslim (neonazi) ; country of russia (spies) ; country of china (daddy!) ; country of our democracy.
mircea_popescu: check that out islamneonazi. alakhu snackbar!
mircea_popescu: lol!
mircea_popescu: lol ahahaha. "Arthurs said all of them shared neo-Nazi beliefs but he later converted to Islam and killed the roommates because they disrespected his faith, the report states."
mircea_popescu: 18yo ?
mircea_popescu: people are born quite dirty, what can you do. gotta wash all the guts, mucus and shit off somehow.
mircea_popescu: actual alcohol couldn't have gotten them, caucasians are used to it.
mircea_popescu: but just as whiskey was indian's bible, so was bible imigrants' whiskey.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform mebbe.
mircea_popescu: perhaps. nevertheless... unreliable item. (which is exactly catholic doctrine : "follow bible without priest, you'll go straight to hell in handbasked". it sounds absurd but then again it's lived history.)
mircea_popescu: obviously the elite christian response would be to point out that the basis of unholy communion was in no sense the holy writ, but merely what every language recalled of it, which is to say they distilled all the holy out of the writ.
mircea_popescu: if this does not prove bible is a poisonous, anti-human text which one follows to his perdition, nothing does.
mircea_popescu: is very much http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-21#1587276 ). consequently a situation of "whoever forges common language first wins" and so therefore 4. idiotic derpage "bible" crap won BECAUSE it was the ~only common ground. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i suppose the retrospective correct analysis is, 1. you get a bunch of elite people get together (everyone who made the trip was elite -- else they couldn't afford the significant proceedings ; this includes the slaves, for the same reason -- if they weren't 10s nobody'd have taken them across and that's what in africa cca then it meant to be elite) ; 2. they have no way to communicate, for lack of language (because language
mircea_popescu: fucking mary complex.
mircea_popescu: quite.
mircea_popescu: beyond fucking scandalous. should have whipped them face to face.
mircea_popescu: trinque quite so. the men permitted the women to betray the house of their master for "the house of the lord".
mircea_popescu: the unholy alliance of neoprotestant old men + bored housewives. horrible.
mircea_popescu: tbh, cca 1880 it'd have been rather hard to predict us will simply check out, let the dumbest of the dumb handle affairs for a century.
mircea_popescu: +ticas tetonas. wtf, mexicans. i can buy saddlebags at the store.
mircea_popescu: i like the weather here, what.
