t be fine. Spiders? not fine! Centipedes? not fine!
mircea_popescu: i suppose i wouldn'
t be in his shoes in the first place,. not having a tendency to get involved with scummy shit.
mircea_popescu: i still don'
t see what i could contribute, were i in the guy;s shoes and some third parties having had a bet
BingoBoingo: I just can'
t believe I'm in a position to win stupid BTC on yes and still, at least in ernest (the victorian) arguing that I might be in line for nothing.
punkman: BingoBoingo: the clarity wasn'
t there to begin with
RagnarDanneskjol: true - other than interpretations, prolly dosn'
t meet threshold for"material" changes, unless it does
punkman: and it doesn'
t seem that board members hold any directorial duties
punkman: what if Brock never were a director, wouldn'
t that make for a badbet?
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> which is unclear who'd be. vesseneess is an asshole i wouldn'
t take the word of anyway, and nobody else is in charge there. << Prime case where I get 30x on my money but fear how the niggers spin it.
mircea_popescu: which is unclear who'd be. vesseneess is an asshole i wouldn'
t take the word of anyway, and nobody else is in charge there.
punkman: well as I see it, some people still have Director in their titles, Brock doesn'
t punkman: BingoBoingo, I'm guessing it's because I don'
t have bigger number
punkman: seems like I need to get myself on an exchange, can'
t buy shit on -otc

t when the bet was opened.

t a massive chicano diaspora at isabelle's court. how did mexico look /
mircea_popescu: imagiune there wasn'
t a massive african diaspora in the us. how would rhodesia have looked ?
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> don'
t forget the machines and their vendors. various parts with high-threes or low-fours 'MTBF', periodic mandatory maintenance, etc. - churn inventory. <<< would seem to contradict asciilifeform> u.s. presidential car is an infamous laughing-stock - broke down recently in england (?) and they had one hell of a time finding a shop that would attempt repair
decimation: as if you couldn'
t just drive there in 4 hours
BingoBoingo honestly doesn'
t care much about acidity of paper, good stuff gets permethrin, capscaisin, and nystatin anyway
mircea_popescu: nubbins` that's not it. a buncha fuctards have to be hosted somewhere, and they don'
t carry tents to camp in.
decimation: the guys 'in the loop' with all of this supposed knowledge apparently can'
t differentiate between luxury resorts in Massachusetts and a third-world hellhole
mircea_popescu: doesn'
t this much unknowing throw a hole in your rome model ?
BingoBoingo: decimation: I don'
t remember if I ever knew. You just kind of tune someone out after that.
decimation: hehe I didn'
t. but you aren'
t a fan of Aristotle either?
decimation: mircea_popescu: so you aren'
t a Platonist?
BingoBoingo: The20YearIRCloud: Well, right. You can'
t give me pyramid, though you can give me pyramids or a pyramid.
BingoBoingo: TheNewDeal: Form and function aren'
t "things" though. Function is a requirement and form is a structure for implementation.
mircea_popescu: form as used by they with a lot of substance isn'
t even form per se anymore.
X-Rob: mircea_popescu: lying and stubborn headedness isn'
t a disability.
BingoBoingo: xanthyos: That's an interesting take. I didn'
t really have much background on the stuff when I started sitting on the now apparently defunct #BitcoinBarron chan
decimation: after all, wouldn'
t you like to tie your boot process with opaque silicon?
BingoBoingo: decimation: No I want fucking control over how my system boots! And I don'
t want fucking dependency hell because I want my system in runlevel 4!
BingoBoingo: I have to imagine it can'
t be a non-trivial number
decimation: my understanding is that NMR resolution isn'
t good enough to be helpful for silicon-based integrated circuitry
X-Rob: Apocalyptic: I don'
t know where that doge came from. I lease my rig for doge, but I normally just convert it straight to btc.
mircea_popescu: "The winter of 1783-1784. The Revolutionary War had just ended, and Benjamin Franklin was puzzling over the nation's bizarre weather. Congress had been delayed getting to Annapolis to vote for the Treaty of Paris because the Chesapeake Bay just wouldn'
t melt. The Mississippi River froze down to New Orleans, and ice was reported floating in the Gulf of Mexico."
chetty: well mining gets done all by itself, don'
t ya know
cazalla: who gives a fuck if she plays violin if she can'
t suck dick
mircea_popescu: now the story here is that while both kinds of tech are actually useful and employable, neither kind of politico is. the expert politico doesn'
t need to be employed, of course, but that's not doing much for the vast majority of noobs, wanna-bes and untalented hacks populating that field.
kuzetsa: well I don'
t understand fiction very well either, so the idea of fanfic VS fiction writing isn'
t something that makes a lot of sense
kuzetsa: you don'
t stop being one just because you can'
t get any
mircea_popescu: hanbot: "A family of four should be able to survive for a month on a six-roll pack, priced at 460 yen ($4.40) and with a five-year expiration date, said Satoshi Kurosaki" <<< i guess they don'
t do the entire tping the house of people they don'
t like in japan.
kuzetsa: though I don'
t understand fanfic well enough to know if woodchipper is even a real fandom
mircea_popescu: i think the largest fanfic bit i ever wrote was a complete re-write of de sade, except done properly by someone who can actually write. sadly, in romanian. other bits and pieces in the same vein i guess. some poetry, rewritten, because oa can'
t write.
kuzetsa: oh, it's on trilema? I didn'
t know you wrote fanfic. neat.
kuzetsa: I don'
t understand the reference about hitpoints... is there like a roleplaying game involving alternate universe cities or something? where they have hitpoints and other stats?
mircea_popescu: kinda why chicago is still crimetown while ny is a copacetic copy of leningrad : unlike the yanks, fucking illinoisians wouldn'
t yield on their infinite hitpoints.
mircea_popescu: the infinite hitpoints thing is becoming such a problem i honestly don'
t see how actual physical testing of the infinity in question will be avoidable on the mid term.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo RagnarDanneskjol i wasn'
t gonna say anything, but as romanian expression goes, "prostul daca nu-i fudul parca nu e prost destul".
Apocalyptic: cazalla, if you can'
t afford toilet paper you're doing something wrong
punkman: look, you just don'
t get startups
mircea_popescu: gernika i just didn'
t realise anyone who's not apple writes for the os-x as a platform.
gernika: mircea_popescu yes. The UI dev wanted a lot of control over the UI, and didn'
t want to build a js ui full of ugly compromises.
mircea_popescu: o don'
t fucking tell me. it's a singer-songwriter innit.
jurov: similar as for gifs (or you won'
t support them altogether?)
Vexual: you're far more likely
t pick up a big jump of fuck in a fight than a nice stick
mircea_popescu: this silly nonsense "shopkeeper wouldn'
t order merchandise for me" for chryssakes.
nubbins`: nod. went to a local aquarium shop. i think the guy suspected i was trying to grow weed, he wouldn'
t order the bulbs for me
nubbins`: i generally don'
t entertain requests for specific numbers because it's a logistical nightmare, but since you're you...
assbot: Ice-
T - I'm Your Pusher (with Lyrics) - YouTube
kakobrekla: that's attacked, we tell them. I don'
t care if the hacker didn'
t get in, you call
nubbins`: i don'
t take enough process pics, it's nice :D
midnightmagic: It is not possible to waive fundamental rights in Canada. Certain other righs (such as moral rights in copyright law) also can'
t be legally waived or given away or signed away.
nubbins`: but let's say you sign a waiver at the rock climbing gym, rope breaks, neck breaks. waiver isn'
t worth the paper it's printed on
nubbins`: iirc this whole thing of "waiving your rights" doesn'
t really exist in canada
