mircea_popescu: the ivy league of argentina is not qualified to populate san quentin.
mircea_popescu: anyone seriously looking for practical proof re the whole race-intelligence nonsense is invited to spend some time in buenos aires doing anything. start a bakery, i don't care.
mircea_popescu: i don't think the depths of argentina imbecility can either be comprehended or described withouy a multi-year commitment. it's just a different planet down here.
mircea_popescu: no development in sight, 100 feet to a highway. they put the fucking highway by the ~best land in town.
mircea_popescu: MILES.
mircea_popescu: you should see the riverfront here. miles of what anywhere else would be primo waterfront real estate, covered in old garbage.
mircea_popescu: will waddle through the characteristic ocre brown of sewage. soberania, argentina no es un pais pobre, etcetera.
mircea_popescu: here's a pro tip : the "vida de noche" etc fashionable resort is "mar del plata". from reports it's a) all fambly beach, very densely populated, NO PARTIES and b) deeply contaminated with sewage. they don't care.
mircea_popescu: sure.
mircea_popescu: "small big poorhead"

mircea_popescu: "this grana padano slice is the "pizza" with highest cheese per portion content ever : 100%"
mircea_popescu: what the fuck, why not buy some cheese if that's the criteria.
mircea_popescu graced the subte (subway) today. the advertising is something else! "pizza #1 por cantidad the queso por porcion".
mircea_popescu: (yes, alb = white. in romanian and other languages)
mircea_popescu: in latin, vitellus (yolk, and such) comes from vitulus (bull calf). much like in german protein is "eggwhite" because... ALBUMIN

mircea_popescu: "Step 2. The state will maintain a fund for buying 18yo females for the puporse of populating the breeder farms - "
mircea_popescu: altogether unlikely*
mircea_popescu: it's altogether woman in question is going to eat anything. she's just as uterinely productive as any other viteline ; that she chooses to "have problems" is ultimately uninteresting.
mircea_popescu: indeed.
mircea_popescu: yet how many rounds are bought ?
mircea_popescu: yet, from experience, loads of kresty alumni do get rich eventually
mircea_popescu: you know, every guy in kresty dreams of one day becoming basically like us, with enough money to buy a round for everyone. and they think that if they did get the money, that's how they used it.
mircea_popescu: and if they do, they go put it on reddit.
mircea_popescu: thereby you know you're asleep and dreaming. because the machinery that'd allow the item know its dna precludes it being ant-shaped ; and the culture it requires to know morse precludes it being ant-substance.
mircea_popescu: suppose you met an ant one day, and this and told you in morse code its whole genome. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: hey therer
mircea_popescu: at was denial and delusion. I am a genetic mistake. I'm a complete waste. I am disgusting. Here to forever be the "duff" (designated ugly fat friend). Equivalent to a pet dog." << riight, and i'm supposed to provide the gallons and bushels of wsod required to make this pass as in-character, somehow ? how! ☟︎
mircea_popescu: "I am a female incel. In 3 weeks I will be a 25 year old virgin. A socially anxious, insecure, overweight, suicidal, complete failure. I'm going to die a kissless virgin. I will always be poor, always lack traditional beauty, always be an obtuse person. Intelligence and grace will never come naturally. And despite years of positivity about myself and with some idea that I was unique and beautiful in my own way, I realize-- th
mircea_popescu: mats aha.
mircea_popescu: heh
mircea_popescu: aite then, i guess there must be some nooks and crannies where the 1k machine makes sense.
mircea_popescu: well yes depends where. if you put the bitcoin thing in your shed in mississiauga nobody'll bother you. literally.
mircea_popescu: don't tell me canada is special and you don't have a police ransom racket somehow.
mircea_popescu: police departments with machine in their precinct, etcetera.
mircea_popescu can't imagine anyone prices/treats these any differently from slot machines.
mircea_popescu: all you do is watch insurance premiums soar ; and all sorts of little inconveniences of that nature.
mircea_popescu: no, that's ot all you do.

mircea_popescu: that's pretty bad innit.
mircea_popescu: bad for driving at any rate
mircea_popescu: pixar wasn't that bad
mircea_popescu: joe stack happened etc.
mircea_popescu: then they got settled down a little.
mircea_popescu: this was a massive dork wank thing a decade+ ago, where the zeks figured they're like totally owning society and the legal system and whatnot.
mircea_popescu: iirc the "legal engineering" thing was an abortive attempt to "build upon" the "genius" of the "viral" gpl.
mircea_popescu: in other news thios coffee im having is fabulous
mircea_popescu: and the minimal bar for desktop is something like http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-06#1597436 ☝︎
mircea_popescu: aite. well i'm not terribly clear on what the idea is, but i also kind-of grew tired of clipping the junctures for sense, so i dunno.
mircea_popescu: do you morse btw ?
mircea_popescu: with which part ? i'm not really following
mircea_popescu: iirc you were last pushing that notion here. and it didn't go far.
mircea_popescu: if you have the ics

mircea_popescu: what would the messages say, xoo xxxx xo oo ?
mircea_popescu: not hard to bring it back
mircea_popescu: http://geekz.co.uk/lovesraymond/archive/clique << bitrh of ubuntu
mircea_popescu: it's friendly to the government, which is the fundamental luser in all places.
mircea_popescu: it is the natural evolution of luser friendly.
mircea_popescu: let the luser crawl into a ghetto and die already.
mircea_popescu: stupid fucking idea. the web shouldn't have been more luser friendly ; and linux shouldn't have been more luser friendly. nothing should ever be luser friendly.
mircea_popescu: anyway, tried to get an alt-ubuntu debian package going at some point when the idea was that "linux has to be more user-friendly" early 2000s
mircea_popescu: retired i imagine.
mircea_popescu: (perens, ftr, is the original author of busybox among other things)
mircea_popescu: it is interesting to see exactly how deeply welded idiocy is inside western thought.
mircea_popescu: http://archive.is/C3p9q << funny, re the "off the table".
mircea_popescu: almost as if their entire hope is indirection. "with infinite layers of indirection, all problems can wait!"

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform how the fuck did those kids go into the missile vaults and not carry a gm counter ?
mircea_popescu: (the relation between hardware and textile making are STRIKING, even if one's not studied early industrialization seriously. it's almost exactly the same thing.)
mircea_popescu: clothing is perhaps a more easy to grasp example. there isn't "an optimal solution" in clothes. there also isn't a "market".
mircea_popescu: in any case "the market" is not an actor.
mircea_popescu: i very much don';t think there is such a thing as "an optimal solution" in the field
mircea_popescu: quite exactly like sewage system
mircea_popescu: for one thing, nobody reads it. it's there to write, not to read
mircea_popescu: it's on reddit, it's spew.
mircea_popescu: again : it's not about thart.
mircea_popescu: your last line ?
mircea_popescu: i am simply saying it's random spew.
mircea_popescu: i'm not saying the contrary of whatever you might have inferred from reading random spew.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform random redditard's spew about as worthy of consideration as something you saw on 4chan
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform they planned the recon mission by email lel
