a sign you've not been whipped enough.
BingoBoingo: "Nortek,
a building products manufacturer based in Providence, Rhode Island" << Why does China need them even with
a bribe?
mircea_popescu: we were discussing young men ; you can't "be" fat, it's just

☟︎ phf: asciilifeform: that's
a specialty service though, girl wouldn't be able to make as much on the ground
mircea_popescu: i also can't mathematicaly prove that "no more bugs will get in", nor is this
a consideration when i fumigate.
mircea_popescu: and
a platonician will protest that "they're all the same kind" and you'll say "no i can subdivide them as i like". sure you can, but it's not necessarily meaningful. depends what you aim to do with the classes.
mircea_popescu: keep thinking that, it's
a road that leads to such wunderbar fruits.
mircea_popescu: also - idiot had no actual power. i can already see
a jwz in the making when someone is "on twitter". bitch, you don't own twitter, and when you'll want to embarass the handler they'll just mothball it.
mircea_popescu: it's
a very simple heuristic. 1) do you work with state outfit ; 2) are you there to ruin it.
mircea_popescu:
a) participated in usg scheme ; b) did not amass sufficient secret files to REALLY hurt the other participants.
mircea_popescu: none of that, they're "feminists" and "democrats", to is now
a modern form - THE FETISH of what it used to be.
mircea_popescu: "to [clause]" is an obsolete form of patriarchy, in which to is
a particle of power.
mircea_popescu: that's because you think there must be
a clause. they're advanced, they can do without all sorts of things.
mircea_popescu: maybe we should make
a site, "victims of their own stupidity", there's
a decent list by now, that debian fucktard, this fucktard, that kid with the "copyright", etcetera.
ben_vulpes: "no ma, we were just out camping and shooting at
a quarry all weekend"
BingoBoingo: Except for reinforcing your identity as
a Russia
BingoBoingo assumes that alf being Russian must have
a livejournal somewhere
mircea_popescu: if
a tenth of all this blind effort went into fucking up "the state" there'd be no state
mircea_popescu: 5.135.17.28 (ovh sas - tons more from these) ; 188.120.41.9 (launchhost.net) ; 185.103.109.246 (bitcanal.pt), whatever
A class, you name it, i've got it.
mircea_popescu: ie, more "visits" than average usg fishwrap gets in
a week. none of them yielded anything ~whatsoever~, which discorages exactly no one.
☟︎ shinohai: I only spoke with him
a few times, but he seemed ok. Twas reading on tardstalk where someone doxed him over
a 5 BTC loan or something.
trinque: I used that for search
a while back, ought to try it again
shinohai: Hey BingoBoingo ... wasn't Boelens
a former associate/employee of TF ?
BingoBoingo: Yeah.
A socialist funding organization. Been using that on qntra for the Vessenes' scam since... forever?

a submission?
BingoBoingo: "'Likely next French President Marine Le Pen (WOT:nonperson) has gone on the record stating that she would like
a ban on Bitcoin. Remember kids that National Socialism is still socialism with all its kleptographic tendencies intact."
mircea_popescu: well... odds are he's
a principal in
a charity somewhere that cooked the books. "seemed the right thing to do" "i just took people's word" "i just wanted to" etc.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it's
a major factor in the "i can't explain why the fuck this guy went all usgtronic".
mircea_popescu: there's more. in any case - let it be said faux charities are today as were
a century ago the principal tax fraud mechanism.
mircea_popescu: the "assets match ~30% of theoretical income" is
a major flag ; the periodic name changes
a slightly less major flag.
mircea_popescu: not
a bad film ; cagney's
a dope, friend of his offers him
a position in management for
a company where all he does is read the nespapers.
mircea_popescu: you ever seen "the strawberry blonde" ? 1930s film with cagney, de havilland and
a still starlet rita hayworth.
mircea_popescu: atm looks
a lot more like someone in tax shelters is using this to hide from
a few mn worth of tax liability ; than thiel or anyone else wanting to give yudks as much as
a half smoked marlboro.
mircea_popescu: i spent
a lot of my life going through exactly this sort of bs.
mircea_popescu: "all frustrated at the heads using him for
a sockpuppet, runs off with corp cc, is then forced to give it back"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nah, they employ one catamite. the lack of payroll tax is
a dead giveaway.
mircea_popescu: we now have
a precise sum of yudkowsky's total interest in this venture.
mircea_popescu: anyway, the list as publishes sums to
a suspiciously round 6,008,809. the assets claimed are ~30% that.

a thought experiment that assumes that an otherwise benevolent future artificial intelligence (AI) would torture the simulated selves of the people who did not help bring about the AI's existence. [...] The concept was proposed in 2010 by contributor Roko in

shinohai: Actually vaping feels more like gasenwagening .. just add
a can of zyklon B
shinohai: Don't want to become
a vapefag though
BingoBoingo: shinohai: I'm making runs at just pulling the bandaid off and learning
a lot about physiological processes nicotine involves itself in that they don't really teach the kids about in school. For example: Nicotine causes causes stored sugahs to be released into the blood stream which means
a substantial portion of the pain of acute nicotine withdrawal is related to the Beetus.
trinque: it's an opportunity for him to challenge the negative biases within himself and become
a more open person
trinque: I hear it's
a progressive place, stanford

a complete disaster my life is...

a RescueCD that rebuilds masamune using all the sources on disk
mircea_popescu: and accepted his offer to hint to
a guy I like that this is the case; I hit on someone at
a party right in front of my primary. I haven't suffered
a hiccup of drama or
a twinge of jealousy to speak of and all evidence (including verbal confirmation) indicates that I've been managing my primary's feelings satisfactorily too.</bragging> Does this sort of thing appeal to you? Cross your fingers and hope your brain works enoug
mircea_popescu: "Everything went according to plan: I can now comfortably describe myself and the primary relationship I have with MBlume as poly. <bragging>Since moving back to the Bay Area I've been out with four other people too, one of whom he's also seeing; I've been in my primary's presence while he kissed one girl, and when he asked another for her phone number; I've gossiped with
a secondary about other persons of romantic interest
mircea_popescu: it was
a very entertaining few years, i definitely recommend the study of "fratire" to the entomologist.
mircea_popescu: aww, you missed such
a nice pile of anecdotes. so this guy, on the basis of
a web forum populated by anglo dorks, and with the help of
a "strategist" whose name escapes me atm but whose badly shaped cranium i still recall, were going to "revolutionize" and shit.
mircea_popescu: tucker max was
a "finance expert" with scott lockinesque notions on bitcoin, last i looked,
mircea_popescu: "Empirically the most ‘attractive’ man in our community including for purposes of casual sex is Mike Blume, who (I’ve asked
a woman or two) achieves this by being extremely polite, reliable, and generating
a feeling of being very safe to be around or date (contrary to
a number of people who’d allege that this is beta-male behavior who I’m beginning to suspect are just sheerly empirically wrong)." << ahahaha win. che
☟︎ mircea_popescu: "I once felt
a small pang of jealousy when one of my girlfriends was having
a very public display of affection with
a non-Mike person I didn’t know quite so well. But I get upset with/jealous of public displays of affection in general, even among people I don’t know, and it’s very hard for me to disentangle this feeling from jealousy and it could have just been my imagination." << or otherwise, could start by defining "
mircea_popescu: if your idea of
a fight is for the submissive to blather off, then o my fucking god what shambling abomnation is this!
mircea_popescu: if your idea of "
a fight" is one screaming his head off and the other begging forgiveness on knees and kowtows, then "no fights" is
a completely dead relatopnship where no instruction is taking place ;
mircea_popescu: "I have lived with them for seven months now and never once have I seen them get in
a fight (I know there is way more to being
a couple than not fighting but I’m trying to think of objective numerical evidence I can report here beyond “if you know them, you know what I mean”)." << it's
a miserable fucking criteria wtf.
trinque: why would
a woman's nesting behaviors go off under such circumstances
trinque: also wouldn't surprise me that anyone in amerika with
a functioning nervous system has
a strong instinct of "this place is done for" going off

a good idea : singular, anecdote ; plural, anecdata.
mircea_popescu: children cost even less ; yet it's
a matter of perception.
