douchebag: I was only asked
to find exploits for
the dependencies being used
mircea_popescu: douchebag, now go
through your wot, ask
the people with -s
to please
take
them off, see what
they want from you
to do so.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: point remains -- stores in vhs america hold "anything you could possibly want".
that is
the exact statement ; and it is a fundamental requirement. no longe satisfied -- no longer
to
the camelfuckers go native in your newyorklondonzurich
mircea_popescu: but
then again, as you discover ~no store holds anything interesting anyway, as seen in recent logs...
mircea_popescu: also, "convenience" as in store etc, is not supportable in kingdom, monarchy only item. which is why you want
to buy parts and your 1600 counterpart had
them hand-made by expert he maintained relatiosnhip with (ie, house and so on)
mircea_popescu: this is strictly because socialist democracy. otherwise -- it's 100x
the other way.
mircea_popescu: so
there shall not long exist
the sort of
things one expects of "Working socialist reich". consider -- it is infinitely easier now
to find a girlfriend (in medieval parlance whore)
than a houseworker (in medieval parlance, maid). by a factor of at least 100.
mircea_popescu: the problem is
that
the value of normie "work", ie, what normie can do, was >0 from age of sail
to end of industrialization, mid 1800s. whereas since orwell it's not been
the case./
mircea_popescu: what
the normies salivate at has ~no bearing
to anything.
mircea_popescu: it's possible
they're
trying some kind of monetarism, "if dried crickets we put in china aquarium can no longer be
traded for bitcoin, on account of how poor us aquarium is kept
the price of bitcoin will drop we can buy cheaper". or whatever inane monetarism.
mircea_popescu: in
the end,
the aquarium feeder and
the aquarium fauna have more in common
than
they'd like
to admit necessarily.
a111: Logged on 2018-05-22 21:12 asciilifeform: from
this it'd follow
that
the coin is now in some idcard-carrying vermin's safe, and guarded by
http://btcbase.org/log/2015-06-10#1158785 , and potentially stable situation ~forever, like with nuke warehouse.
trinque: iirc
they were all shuttered at
the end of last year
mircea_popescu: so far
that's even
the reason empire crossed
the
threshold into oblivion ( i'm
too lazy
to dig up ye olde
trilema where i say "state may exist for as long as it so closely mimmicks my will i can't discern it's
there, and not one second past
that" ) and now must be destroyed. had it had
the sense (rather,
the capacity)
to maintain both forms, i'd nwever have even noticed it, and it could have continued
to exist
therefore.
☟︎ trinque: looks like
they very much want some, and don't want it leaking
trinque: china shut down
the exchanges, not
the mines
mircea_popescu: nobody's proposing deductive solutions.
the only observation is
that
trying
to build one-legged walkers will result in grief.
mircea_popescu: if man is a dullard, man will engage in "high headcount", female generative process : how
to make ANOTHER item JUST LIKE
THE FIRST.
mircea_popescu: at
this point, man diverges into
two fundamentally disjunct and irreconcilable possiblities.
mircea_popescu: consider
the illustrative case of art. so a man gets an itch, and as a result of
this itch in due
time comes an item.
mircea_popescu: so
the first is a "low n high headcount" and
the 2nd is a "high n high headcount", but
the first byte is insignificant, "low", "high", maybe 17 is a very large amt of phone number, who's
to say.
mircea_popescu: "all integers up
to n" is not much affected by size of n, because
the generative rule still is, "up
to" "n".
mircea_popescu: the difference between {1,2} and {1,2,3,4,5,6,7...,190999} is not substantial -- yes one's larger
than
the other, but
the first can be enlarged and it'll keep structure.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform,
that it's still ~ordered~ from low
to high, irrespective of how it happens
to have a small cardinal.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i suspect we might be
the only ones
to have ~ever~ produced an item
that doesn't specifically benefit from headcount as such.
mircea_popescu: "transform
through culture -- as long as
the fundamentals don't change". or, in caragiale's words, century+ ago, "Din două una, dați-mi voie: ori să se revizuiască, primesc! dar să nu se schimbe nimica; ori să nu se revizuiască, primesc! dar atunci să se schimbe pe ici pe colo, și anume în punctele... esențiale... Din această dilemă nu puteți ieși... Am zis! "

trinque: we are a media publication. our power and capital comes from
the number of visitors we have
to
the site. we aim
to
transform
through culture. if normal people cannot visit our site we are not accomplishing our goal
mircea_popescu: i suspect you're profiled as "crotchety old man with no social skills" because "technical expertise must have
this fatal flaw" as per
the cinematic rolodex of fatal flaws.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: do you recall which one
this was?
mircea_popescu: that's how democratic state stays stable : a) integrating
the world but also b) desintegrating
the zek mind.
a111: Logged on 2014-04-13 22:23 mircea_popescu: "In 2013,
two men from upstate New York were arrested after building a radioactive "death ray" device and plotting
to use it against Muslims"
mircea_popescu: nah. just
the ~integrated~ ones. see ?
the moment
they integrate
their courage,
they a) lose some portions of it and b) become indeed very dangerous.
mircea_popescu: and
this is
the problem. system relies on
them being both insanely brave, past any degree of human bravery, and ALSO insanely poltroonish, below what one sees even in 6yos.
mircea_popescu: bravery, see ? he who dares
take gang hookers on a whim, can in principle dare
to go steal
the nuke keys.
mircea_popescu: this is ~all
they see, and
therefore
they believe it. hey, if you're as cute as a button and don't bow
to patriarchy, you can just walk with a hunk of gold from fort knox.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform,
they'll just go in and fucking steal it.
mircea_popescu: see,
this is
to my eyes
the principal vulnerability of
the whole charade. always it is
the case with
tripartite stable systems you get a sewing
together somewhewre, and so is here.
the zeks must, at
the same
time, be brave enough
to steal from pighead and ALSO cowardly enough
they'll eagerly participate in samokritika sessions.

the door he is guarding; if he knew - would steal it himself' (tm) (r) (sov army)
mircea_popescu: and i imagine
they're in
the deepest hole
the reich has, not because of "guilt" but because
they're radioactive, can
train others.
