ninjashogun: (I mean, for example, in theory you can do a deep check on all of your partners and KNOW they have no STD's and also don'
t sleep with anyone else othre than you. Condom use lets you have some protection in cases where this isn'
t done.)
ninjashogun: But I don'
t think the Risk Compensation argument is effective against condom use.
ninjashogun: For example, it is doubtless true that people who use condoms will have sex in some situations (with unknown partners they're not really sure of) that they wouldn'
t otherwise.
mircea_popescu: ng committee meetings. Why would he agree to do it? Why wouldn'
t he rather be playing squash, riding a horse, flying an aircraft, walking his dog, etc.?" The distressing possibility that the oldster agreed to be on the committee so that he would have a venue in which people would listen to him does not occur to the youngster.
jurov: mircea_popescu: if they accepted me at ibm, maybe i won'
t be here, too
mircea_popescu: Neuropathy is unpredictable. One minute I am doing fine, the next my face aches, tinnitus (motor in my ear), then suddenly my abdomen, then feet, then can'
t swallow and have a "fear of imminent suffocation" anxiety attack, feeling that my stomach wants to exit my body, etc.."
mircea_popescu: "Yeah I am just messing with your minds and have no actual technical ability. But maybe someone does who is reading my points and maybe they will do something. I am hoping. You see I don'
t really care how we get the solution, as long as we get one. I am not the young productive programmer that I once was with two good eyes (not very productive since losing one eye and acquiring an apparently progressive, incurable peri

t really the chief consideration in investments.
dnivi3: Seems like I jumped on the train a bit too early thinking that the price would rise (which it did for a little while). I am dumping my shares, can'

t free | Bingo Blog
Namworld: Well anyway, no point in talking further. I don'
t have anything else to do on the computer, I'll be on my way.
Namworld: I think it's been established what is progress to me. Speaking of groups in absolute fuels hate, especially when the one speaking doesn'
t believe in such absolute, is bad. Thus I will speak against it when I see it. Just like you would call out people on doing things you disapprove of.
Namworld: You said you knew how jews think. Jews have a common religion. Everything else could be completly different. Although the religion might influence a good portion into certain ideas, if you took jews and non jews mixed together and asked their point of view on various things that doesn'
t touch jews like Israel and such, you'd have a hard time spotting them.
Namworld: I didn'
t say there's none. It might be common. That's okay to expect similiarities to be probable. But one should not assume people from the same group will be alike.
radan: "nba players are just like any other people, some of them can shoot a basketball, some of them can'

t radan: "I don'
t feel fondly attached to any culture particularly."
Namworld: Some would say loss of culture and traditional way of living is not progress. Me, I don'
t feel fondly attached to any culture particularly.
mircea_popescu: i don'
t get what the trouble with tolerance is in the first place.
Namworld: I don'
t think we can eliminate those things, short of simply eradicating ourselves.
radan: I don'
t get your point Namworld
Namworld: Yes, pretty much, live and let live. Not shape yourself to fit where you don'
t belong. Voice your opinion.
Namworld: I didn'
t say otherwise, just unsure about the best way to go about it and not liking how it's done.
Namworld: You said it was important to be manly and fearless to get girls, yet seemed confused as how to date in modern society. Your personality doesn'
t fit the modern culture. You say the culture is bad. Perhaps that is true, but you've given no justifications to it. Just that it doesn'
t fit you.
radan: that doesn'
t stop it from being beautiful
radan: and they don'
t have any kids
mircea_popescu: next you're going toi tell me you didn'
t know romania had a warez scene and we can all go to bed.
radan: didn'
t know Romania had a hip hop scene
Namworld: My point is that you're contradicting yourself. You're saying the world is wrong, not you, because they don'
t fit your ideal. While there is technically no one that is right or wrong.
radan: your "for X you sure are X" statements don'
t even make sense
Namworld: You can'
t shape yourself to fit in where you don'
t belong. Or at least shouldn'
t.
Namworld: feeling like you don'
t belong and choosing to live the lifestyle you want, but your arguments about what's wrong with the world are off. The world isn'
t wrong, it is simply wrong for you.
