asciilifeform: nubbins`: there is a fallback in there - irc
asciilifeform: nubbins`: once this is done, it will be theoretically possible to build uclibc-ized bitcoind
mircea_popescu: nubbins` exactly my point.

pete_dushenski: decimation indeed. we're seeing increasing amounts of mexican and south us (black) labourers. rest are polacks and newfies (like nubbins`_
mircea_popescu: a right, we haven't fully colonized nubbins` yet. much like canada, he hangs on to antiquated forms that perpetuate the routing and interfacing differences in our society.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` can you imagine the increase in demand for competent web engineers we've caused this year alone ?
mircea_popescu: nubbins` frankly i'm moderately surprised anyone even reads vice at all. readership >= 1 is already above par.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` "divisors" are only defined for some numbers.
trinque: nubbins`: that's the accepted way to find fonts among designers these days
pete_dushenski: nubbins` gross.

assbot: Logged on 06-05-2015 17:14:07; ascii_field: nubbins`: everyone with the 'one of these days.' you're gonna make mircea_popescu's head explode.
mircea_popescu: there's a reason nubbins` finds the mentally insane so fascinating. that reason is that he has the deep intuition that the only people worth the mention are the ones that don't actually care.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` is her nose big enough to qualify as a rachel ?
mircea_popescu: and to do a meta point here, to go with the meta point above : this entire discussion is a fine point to explain to the managerially challenged why you can't "control the evaporation". where intelligent people lay, nubbins' lateral discussion of "bullshot nobody cares about" sparked stuff people do seem to care about.
mircea_popescu: o wow, "He is the writer of the graphic novel RED, adapted into the film starring Bruce Willis and Helen Mirren." << how the fuck did i miss this. you seen it nubbins` ?
mircea_popescu: nubbins` anyway, only notable for the ending of the original post, "However this conflict is resolved, I now know that I cannot rely upon my former partner and dearest friend and in the following year may work to build a BDSM dating site that is run effectively, responsibly and for the benefit of its users, not as a personal kingdom."
nubbins`: like /showprofile.exe?nubbins etc
mircea_popescu: nubbins` you know there's nothing shameful about being a slut.

mircea_popescu: polished all the fucking knobs and hanged scented car trees and chinatown windchimes from various nubbins is all.
mircea_popescu: since somehow scoopbot missed http://trilema.com/2015/the-museum-of-the-national-bank-of-argentina/ (hey williamdunne how's that work ?), dedicating it to nubbins` an' asciilifeform by hand.
assbot: Logged on 18-03-2014 14:54:45; nubbins`: "hey guys i'd like to open a sandwich shop, is there any place i can buy deli meats in bulk?"
assbot: Logged on 27-04-2015 13:59:38; nubbins`: ever watch "hell's kitchen"? it's not uncommon for "contestants" to be unable to distinguish pork from chicken by taste alone
