asciilifeform: a.
BingoBoingo: Thought you'd enjoy that lul. Huge fuss over six bodies receiving messages from on high by guy who really wanted to be president of a people he can't bring himself to talk to.
mp_en_viaje: in what's becoming a god damned tradition, i can't fucking find it.
asciilifeform found that reasonable trb noad more or less requires adult fiber. set it up one time in a commercial pad where 'commercial cable', would sit for months and not sync
a111: Logged on 2019-07-05 09:00 mp_en_viaje: bvt, you'll end up moving to romania, where they have fiber to the door (unlike the us, say). but the problem is... IT TAKES THEM THREE WEEKS!!!! to get a new connection in
a111: Logged on 2019-07-05 08:25 mp_en_viaje: the internet may become more alike a dream than a lived reality.
mp_en_viaje: meanwhile, back from a modest breakfast built around poached eggs and Брэст-Літоўск smoked cheese.
mp_en_viaje: bvt, you'll end up moving to romania, where they have fiber to the door (unlike the us, say). but the problem is... IT TAKES THEM THREE WEEKS!!!! to get a new connection in ☟︎
mp_en_viaje: !Qlater tell hanbot "Dr. Nut was a soft drink produced by New Orleans-based World Bottling Company. It was introduced in the 1930s and was produced until the late 1970s."
mp_en_viaje: the internet may become more alike a dream than a lived reality. ☟︎
bvt: hello. i have also prepared a work schedule document; however internet at my workplace died this week, will post the plan as soon as the internet goes back up; the plan for next two weeks is to get to ffa14b, update asm code to it; after that, i will have a look at some other work.
mp_en_viaje: http://trilema.com/2014/consent-is-a-myth-lets-see-how-it-came-to-be/#selection-309.373-309.460 for the fucking win, what can i possibly say.
mp_en_viaje: a four-nigger farm! the whole fucking discussion is about this married couple and their four niggers! they work together ten acres of shitty land, half corn, half cotton. THESE are the lofty concerns. this is what "the state" is supposed to exist atop and deal with ?
mp_en_viaje: as you can see, lofty topics, aerated pretense, serious fucking problems. a clash of civilisation altogether, the hopes and dreams of hu-midity revolting against the hu-manity and its constraints! oh-wee!
mp_en_viaje: just as importantly : that "the state" and "laws and regulations", ie this complex construction of precious cuntlets supposedly there to guarantee them costless independence, ie that they can go around dressed as if they;re whores (by which "dressed" we mean -- having a cunt between the legs, that's all the dressing required for [http://trilema.com/2010/sa-invatam-limba-rusa-blyad/#selectio
mp_en_viaje: this even way the fuck loftier 2 meaning, that "the message was transmitted by ~ONE OF THE~ hounds" of this sartori comedian. because he's so lofty and important and practically speaking a nation in himself, he can't even fucking talk, like trump. he has a humongous (you better believe) horde of vechili & other nigger handles at his beck and call. he's just that fuckign cool, what.
mp_en_viaje: shock and awe, a bunch of idle cuntlets went to new york to "be journalists" aka "do whatever the fuck i please all day as if i were mp" only to discover mp is mp because mp, not because new york, and cowpoke girl from indiana doesn't get away from HAVING TO suck cock just because got away from indiana.
mp_en_viaje: this 1 meaning, that "the workers", in a very lofty plural, NOT ACTUALLY WORKING for a thing NOT ACTUALLY MAKING ANY MONEY by very far (which'd be the MEASURE of working), found out that yes, the necessary correlate of not working is not being free.
mp_en_viaje: so : 1. "Juan Sartori, hasta el domingo 30 precandidato por el Partido Nacional y propietario del portal Ecos, decidió que ese medio abandonará el periodismo y pasará a formar parte de su aparato de propaganda, y así se lo comunicó este martes a los periodistas que lo integran."
mp_en_viaje: hey phf, since i'll be in minsk for a while, how inconvenient is it to hop in a plane, come have a beefsteak or something ?
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, so, nobody gives a shit about empire ? kinda self-obvious result, neh.
mp_en_viaje: increasingly the internet becomes a pantsuit translation skin upon the world, giving such a worldview as could be digested by a specific sort of ideologically-hobbled moron and naught else.
billymg: mp_en_viaje: this is making a lot of sense, thank you
mp_en_viaje: a rich king with no barons is in just as dubious position as henry the young king, with his hall fulla heroic figures and no two pennies to set a meal before them. you absolutely must have money ~and connections~, there is strictly no doctor's note to get you out of this one, and don't go looking for it either.
mp_en_viaje: a statement like "0 political connections" ~impugns~ you. this is a flaw of yours ; you're welcome to remedy it whichever way you choose, such as moving to an easier and cheaper map. but if you move not to remedy but to persevere in your error... well pardon me, error is error, such a thing as an alternate world which works in alternate ways and your error is no longer sinful hasn't been found yet.
a111: Logged on 2019-06-26 19:24 mp_en_viaje: get yourself support locally, too. there's a few remnant pantsui torgs that need strangling ; i murdered one there's just a few left. they must be publicly raped, and then get the repubkican style institutions going.
mp_en_viaje: billymg, note the things i said re moving to cr, specifically http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-26#1920248 ; attempting to manalone things is a loser strategy wherever you go. ☝︎
mp_en_viaje: largely the early soviet revolutionary thing was a long chain reorg. a tenuous if long coming interpretation of "wealth" got segwit 'ed out of existence.
a111: Logged on 2019-07-01 10:20 mircea_popescu: and the other item in this rapidly depleting bucket of possibly useful ideas : fucking pick. obviously i'll look at a group and go "talk to that one with the tits" or w/e such, my picks are easy peasy. but this doesn't mean yo ucan't pick! look at a group, select the donkey with the more intelligent gaze, talk to that, what's to keep you.
mp_en_viaje: (a sort of single-family dwelling). the peasants had been slowly capitalizing the space around them for centuries, before that thread got discontinued, and wealth became rather a relational sort (see "note from stalin", or see beria's implementation of my very own "talk with the one with the tits". ☝︎
mp_en_viaje: well, a large part of the problem then was also that the ~meaning~ of wealth changed. wealth as a concept in the space occupied later by the sovient union had starting to diverge as early as 1600s, with the aparition of the khutor
mp_en_viaje: conceivably a girly reading a discussion about how women are born less than men gets disheartened and quits highschool. this is not particularly sound reasoning, the biological and statitical discussion says nothing about her.
mp_en_viaje: i think part of the problem is maybe a kind of literalism. i wouldn't say the thread is ~incorrect~ ; i would however say it does not relate to you in the manner you imply. it is a historical and statistical account, like say a discussion of female biological inferiority.
billymg: and when this happens, or how it happens, is not something i'd like to predict, but rather be far enough away to watch from a distance
mp_en_viaje: yours is a bizarre conception of the world. http://trilema.com/2015/a-lunatic-with-a-bloodied-axe-could-be-ringing-at-your-door/ is not locale-bound.
billymg: well, not just because told you to, but rather, show up at house, ask a bit more firmly
mp_en_viaje: the only real danger is, your brain rotting into the sad shape where you'd actually pay ; or think such a thing as paying is conceivable.
mp_en_viaje: the general population in minsk is stuck saving all week on their miserly $100/week salary to take girlfriend out on independence day, only to get kicked out of the booth because there's some people there doing bottles. the general population sits morosely at the bar while their gf watches my whores mouth agape for half an hour only to eventually work up the gumption to come over and complain about ~the noise~. in a fucking bar. so i tell them to ge
mp_en_viaje: dude, the general population. who gives a flying fuck about the general population ?
billymg: re: timing, i'm worried that the next bitcoin spike, which feels due soon, will again create a climate of jealousy/resentment in the population towards anyone with btc
asciilifeform: speaking of which, trump promised a -- first ever in washingtonistan -- tank an' plane parade tomorrow
mp_en_viaje: anyway, there's worse fates than owning a bit of land here and there.
mp_en_viaje: he just thinks you're in a much better position to evaluate the risks.
a111: Logged on 2019-07-03 17:19 billymg: is it that real estate is necessarily always a bad investment, even for someone already comfortable with the amount of coin they have on hand?
mp_en_viaje: get everyone marketed much more important than retarded hangups about "what hours things happen". the principal problem of latino teenagers is that they don't have access to a market where to sell their cunt, end up wasting it and therefore their life.
mp_en_viaje: sooo... i might be the only person in the world to be hit on by their 19yo ~stewardess~, but it fucking happened. as i'm sitting in line to get a local phone sim, this bubbly chick is all "oh, i flew you yesterday, remember me ???"
BingoBoingo: billymg: The thing about buying real estate is that it immediately incurs costs to maintain and defend the property. If the place has been sitting empty there can already be a deficit.
billymg: asciilifeform: yes, so if i accidentally my keys, nice to at least have roof over my head still, or some benjies in a suitcase, is all i'm saying
asciilifeform: it's a square circle, billymg , either sumthing is yours or it aint. if it's yours, you could lose, or forget where you put, where do you suppose 'buried treasure' comes from for archaeologists to find.
billymg: more difficult to pillage than numbers on a screen
asciilifeform: billymg: re heavy industrial amts of coin -- the only afaik fella here who could even theoretically help, is mp_en_viaje , ask him when he wakes up, it is possible that this is the year he's buying a soviet sub or sumsuch
billymg: is it that real estate is necessarily always a bad investment, even for someone already comfortable with the amount of coin they have on hand? ☟︎
billymg: in that case, off by a bit for the fiat needing to be absorbed
BingoBoingo to put the auctions up a bit after 0:00 UTC
billymg: and i'm in the situation of having more spare fiat than i expected to, by way of winning startup tech co stock option lottery. so dumping some of that into property outside the reich, even if not A+ investment, is not something i would stress about
BingoBoingo: Well, cattle rustling is still a thing in Uruguay. Usually takes the form of 5-12 men rolling into a field and butchering the cow in place.
BingoBoingo: Well, Bitcoin's also a thing.
billymg: unless step to is withdraw to suitcase full of benjies. but then if stashed in a rental, easier for someone to walk up to landlord and say "we need to look inside"
billymg: that's true, and i might be overthinking it. perhaps opening a bank account in cr and wiring everything over is really not a big deal. but then i'd worry that would make it easier for someone to hit the "undo" button on the transfer
BingoBoingo: Could get a lawyer to draft up a letter swearing your suitcase of benjis is for your epic casino vacation instead? Seems like renting would be smarter while figuring out what to look for inspecting the local buildings.
billymg: mp_en_viaje: i'm speaking to a realtor in cr soon about some listings, i was hoping to get your thoughts on one of the listings as well as general feedback/guidance on my strategy. i've included some details about my current situation to provide more context. if you could find the time to review please and give advice it would be immensely helpful: http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/eC3ir/?raw=true

a111: Logged on 2019-07-03 09:36 mp_en_viaje: certainly, i went by a large big lenin. driver was kinda proud of it, too.
mp_en_viaje: well, there's certainly a very sad vibe of "bdsm, you mean that escort service" and other such "we're still in the 80s over here" mentality issues. heck, they even had a dubious cover band at restaurant last night, did "imagine" and then "friends will be friends" and etc, phonetically.
mp_en_viaje: certainly, i went by a large big lenin. driver was kinda proud of it, too. ☟︎
mp_en_viaje: anyway, the funny part was that the damn thing sounds JUST EXACTLY how a mp-run minsk-bdsm authority would go. "forward quality youth!" etc.
mp_en_viaje: and romania.for that matter, hanbot got to pet a baby bison years ago.
diana_coman: I suspect the trouble really is that by that time I was already used to a mixture of estonian+belarus+russian+lithuanian home-cuisine that I can't pick it apart what is exactly from where
diana_coman: for the past 3 minutes or so I tried to remember ANY food I had in belarus; can't remember anything; either it was too close to one-of-the-homes or I have no idea why it's such a black hole this one.
mp_en_viaje: had a large order of dranki, came with a literal boat of (not so sour) cream ; the borsht came with sliced slana, i'm fatted out.
asciilifeform: sorta like a less militantly-retarded ukristan
mp_en_viaje: well i certainly like bielarusians. and yes, the cunt even better quality than poland, in a strictly physical sense. somewhat more fucked in the head though.
BingoBoingo: You hate Italians, had a good time in Poland. I took a stab at what would follow the pursuit of more Poland less Italian
BingoBoingo: <mp_en_viaje> whom, i suspect, went and checked nicole's fetlife profile. << Nah, I took a stab at what's probably the opposite of Italy
mp_en_viaje: and as the girls were in trouble, five minutes later runner busts through the door to face me, coincidentally standing in the halway with my pants unbuttoned and a crop in my hand, while one girl naked and the other skirt rolled up to her belybuitton facing me...
mp_en_viaje: they do things slightly differently around here, had a guy waiting in the street as i showed up, to do various errands for me ; eventually i sent him off to bring more keys and assorted odds and ends (be right back, 5 minute!!!)
spyked: diana_coman, nice! brother went to edinburgh and down to canterbury a few days ago, caught about zero rain, which I suppose must be rare

BingoBoingo: I'm have to retract the Italian joke and take a wild stab at Minsk
mircea_popescu: ima give a bitcent to the eventual winner (if nobody gets exact location, closest guess counts ; though global designations [ie, zones or countries rather than towns] will be taken at the least-favourable value)
mircea_popescu: i guess i'd have to open it a credit line, make a convertible bond, something. still mulling all this over.
mircea_popescu: make two tiers, so the editor in chief + i guess whatever others we promote to permanent editorship still has the option to get shares ; but the rest just get a payoff.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo, i was thinking maybe it'd be a good move to reform the qntra structure, have outright 10c/word payable for copy for colalborators, do say weekly deedbot payouts or something.
mircea_popescu: "Y sin mucho aparato político ni recursos para poder imprimir listas a cuatro tintas, la tarea no era fácil." << dorks can't afford 500 color copies, think they're party. in continuation&extension of http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-11#1795969 ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2019-07-01 08:32 mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo, would you say the share system of compensation is rather a help or rather a hindrance in acquiring new writers for the qntra ?
BingoBoingo: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-01#1921192 << I am unsure whether it is an aid or a hinderance. douchebag and other passers by have suggested the share thing may be a hinderance. On the contrary to the back monkey theory http://trilema.com/2019/qntra-sqntr-statement-on-q2-2019/#selection-59.160-63.0 doing 1.2 qntra pieces daily month after month seems to be the major activity in my life keeping me more or less sane. ☝︎
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: a, i thought you were re: the 1 actual theorem ( asciilifeform has just that 1, and imho pretty trivial result )
mircea_popescu: when newton sits down to do some work, newton proceeds from the edges of the known in a general direction, yes, but he can do this in a number of ways at a number of times ; he is not seized upon by sudden inspiration, to be helplessly thrown to and fro like a maniac, arriving he knows not when or where.
mircea_popescu: it said "your single-path-impredictable-and-unreviewable theorems" ; they'd be these 1. "theorems", as the term is used here, ie, constructions of the mind, which are 2. single-path as in, there is only one possible way to get there (unlike true constructions of the mind, which can always be reached from a multitude of nodes, the implication being that these are mere masks on specific structures of psychogenic noise, not bon
diana_coman: about "learning a skill"; I've read recently Benjamin Franklin's own auto-biography and that's how he put it everywhere.
mircea_popescu: copying the forms may be a great way to get to the substance -- which is why say all painters who painted back when painting worked and such a thing as being a master painter was still on the table learned the craft in "full houses", run by some older painter ; but we're adults, we're in the business of substance here, no amount of formalist perfection's gonna do anything on its own.
mircea_popescu: there's no "i'll be a living organism only doing 2/5 of the things living organisms must do". this is not an available option.
a111: Logged on 2019-07-01 10:05 mircea_popescu: back when chet was an adult woman, decade or so before we met, she ran the only old style kitchen in her neighbourhood. local girlies came to hang out and learn how to cook, her house was always full. my cousin i had hannah live with for a coupla months did the same thing, she had two hgirls one year apart of her own and a half dozen daytime live-ins.
diana_coman: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-01#1921246 - btw, meant to say, whether my-fault or whatever, "a house always full" will see me running for the hills. ☝︎
diana_coman: it's a shame the child is only 6 as otherwise he's anyway coming home straight to check that I didn't "do anything with the computer parts" while he was away; and I have yet to see any of his play-mates that want to leave our house when time is up, lol.
mircea_popescu: and the other item in this rapidly depleting bucket of possibly useful ideas : fucking pick. obviously i'll look at a group and go "talk to that one with the tits" or w/e such, my picks are easy peasy. but this doesn't mean yo ucan't pick! look at a group, select the donkey with the more intelligent gaze, talk to that, what's to keep you. ☟︎
