asciilifeform: i am interested in subj mainly as an experimental test of some of my assumptions
asciilifeform: l0l: the sp4mz0rz pushing the derelict houses called me back and offered to consolidate the tour, they actually thought i wanted to buy ~all~ of them..

BingoBoingo: Typical "remain" voter https://i.sli.mg/UQarGZ.png
asciilifeform: i cross the road, i am in paving biz ?
asciilifeform: or - if i buy icecream - i am in icecream biz ?
asciilifeform: i thought 'in biz' were, roughly, if you intended to make money reselling
phf: the one that i knew wasn't really running it movie back of hand style (or i guess it wasn't like this special thing, "where's my money bitch"). money brought was income and "he takes care of me" etc

a111: Logged on 2016-06-27 21:04 phf: asciilifeform: not at all 100% usg, that's why there was the west coast symbolics media lab, also government didn't stop buying, the contracts were bringing revenue well into the endof90s (i mean still do, but now it's life support peanuts)
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-06-27#1491436 << i think there's some merit to this view. usg wasn't nearly as important as asciilifeform thinks it even in the 80s. ☝︎
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: http://www.zillow.com/homes/for_sale/Baltimore-MD/3523_rid/0-25000_price/0-88_mp/pricea_sort/39.313,-76.570641,39.273593,-76.593129_rect/15_zm/0_mmm << i have nfi whether scamz, etc.
shinohai: But I liked the temple of doom. I could get behind religions like that.
phf: they had a different spelling of it (i vaguely suspect on account of indiana jones movie), "kala, divine mother temple" it took me a while to get it
phf: i drove past a mother kali temple somewhere in laurel, md yesterday
asciilifeform: brief overview: i had it lying around because was trying to make a mempool debugger at one time.
shinohai: No but I see the benefits of having rpc commands use it, as I would love to see those commands separated from daemon
shinohai: I love this :D
phf: asciilifeform: not at all 100% usg, that's why there was the west coast symbolics media lab, also government didn't stop buying, the contracts were bringing revenue well into the endof90s (i mean still do, but now it's life support peanuts) ☟︎
phf: to bubbling debt, etc. not saying that either of us could do it in a few sentences, but that's what i would expect from proper paper on the subject. real estate is not even mentioned in the above hack job
a111: Logged on 2016-06-27 20:29 asciilifeform: from phf's link, commentz: '...it's nice that run down neighborhoods get a face lift, and I love craft beer and good food and coffee as much as the next guy (er, gal)-but what happened to the factories and the people that used to work in them? Their lives were largely destroyed by "free trade" and deindustrialization. We were once a producer society, and we were an economically and culturally healthier countr
phf: i skimmed it and realized just how badly researched, but ideologically framed it is

shinohai: asciilifeform is such a wonderfully easy person to make snore. I'll bet he never needs Ambien.
_FeltPen: @thestringpuller - I feel you, nobody likes competing against a wet paper bag.
thestringpuller: i really hate my generation. but better for me cause it's not much competition for anything
phf: out 5 years ago. now i can't go there without getting the anger shakes, it's a fucking millenial central. i got into a fight at johnny brenda's (mentioned in the article) a year ago, and everybody backed down, which made me even madder. fuck that place
mircea_popescu: possibly the lulziest "dedicated copywriter" result i've seen to date : http://theacneproject.com/does-accutane-work-for-acne/
phf: so i've lived on the gentrification line before and it's never "white kids", they move in when after the whole thing is named "gentrification" and by then there's already a whole foods in the works. gentrification is brought about by utter misfit john waters crowd, and they prime the area for couple of years by throwing parties and making things happen, large portion of them is gay and otherwise insane.
thestringpuller: i think you're accurately describing brooklyn
thestringpuller: oh. i don't even know if those white kids could even AFFORD to live in the hood.
trinque: I recall a hilarious "board meeting" in an episode, I think.
BingoBoingo: I think it would be good for their morale
phf: that's definitely not the types i would want anywhere near a baltimore ghetto workshop. not only are they useless, they are also going to do something stupid, get shot or raped and next thing you know we're in the middle of scandal
phf: one guy (support) got it in his head that he's going to open a london branch of the company, he regularly arranges meetings with random uk business representatives to discuss along these lines. i heard he had some kind of meeting with richard branson as part of a small select group, etc. etc. mind you this has long been shot down by the owners as utterly insane and shut the fuck up. doesn't deter him.
mircea_popescu: phf very good, i'd check it.
phf: i'm not even exaggerating to pander, the whole thing is a parody of itself
asciilifeform: phf: i've been seeing ads for this nonsense in d.c.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> everything's is cheap to the folks who already have it. and $maxint for those who don't. << I did not have a pipe wrench yesterday morning and yet $2 got me one before bed time on the same day.
asciilifeform: if i wanted to replay waco, could also do it for free, without buying any real estate.
phf: mircea_popescu: oh i agree, but i'm not telling other pufferfish how to do things, i'm talking from my school :> i'm not even saying it's somehow special. it's just very cheap to put a workspace area in ghetto if the people working it are basically ok with manual labour, "community building" all that jazz
asciilifeform: if i wanted to give my gear to scrap iron thieves, i could do it FOR PHREE, without paying 10k for the container
asciilifeform: i would buy one for a workshop but it'll get emptied as soon as i drive off.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform why would i work for the us ?
phf: i know people who did that in detroit before for a hackerspace, but with motorcycles
mircea_popescu: i bet you they never go out to hang with the locals ?
asciilifeform: i have friends living there. it isn't so great time.
mircea_popescu: oh and in other mews, i give you the peacock tail! http://67.media.tumblr.com/c3bf23bc0126e2abc63617477522c9d0/tumblr_o2tvnzL6Ze1v2ot9zo1_1280.jpg
asciilifeform: somehow i am being asked to believe that the first 170,000 of Framedragger's samples contained 0 of this.
mircea_popescu: i dun think the butterfly collection warrants any action yet, but it is pretty stranger.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i genuinely have nfi. but a little more of this and i'ma start verifying the keyz, possibly Framedragger was mitm'd when he scanned. or fucked up in some other way.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-06-27#1491103 << i was meditating upon the same wonder. wtf is this. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-06-27#1491092 << i'd be very much to see exactly what uk economy consists of, altogether. ☝︎
phf: huh, i kind of want to see the original with Divine now
mircea_popescu: i thought it was a derpy "teenage interest" thing.
mircea_popescu: i might have to see this now.
mircea_popescu: i thought hairspray was a fag interest musical.
BingoBoingo: from the mines https://i.imgur.com/IS7GswEr.png
phf: so, i just learned that historia is produced by an istor or widstor, i.e. a wise man or a person who knows/sees, i.e. the one who вид-ит
mircea_popescu: i'm pretending the way you say "equum consulem declarare non erubuit" in english is "racist".
phf: man, i'm starting to understand why nero was playing that fiddle
a111: Logged on 2016-06-27 13:13 phf: i'm not quite grokking how this was an unexpected outcome. prices drop because of smaller things and this was a massive price signal. from my naive perspective you have a bunch of people saying "eu sucks" and "britain has standalone economy" both assertions need to be explored and nobody particularly wants to explore them
_FeltPen: its there, but i just added it again. will try to register again.
trinque: I can't recv-key that over here.
_FeltPen: yeah, i believe so. will check later - no biggie. thanks for help.
trinque: I'm sorry; docs are wrong. You only need the fingerprint
_FeltPen: can i register for WOT in this channel or do I need to do that in bitcoin-assets?
trinque: box isn't overloaded. I'm gonna give freenode the points for that one.
thestringpuller: i thought that was CERN

a111: Logged on 2016-06-25 19:58 mircea_popescu: it's okay, and i dun recall, but the past is not dispositive. future girl that dun show isn't getting paid.
a111: Logged on 2016-06-26 15:38 Framedragger: but to suggest that folk from within are in on it, as in usg agents whatnot, is bull. i know that in terms of effects there may not be much of a difference, but whenever you say "prolly controlled burn by those idiots", i want to smack you because those friends are not dumb at all.
mircea_popescu: what can i tell you.
naughtygirl: i dont really want to show my face

BingoBoingo: Eh I thought they were just tards who wanted to belong to something.
