Diablo-D3: china's GDP is $11
trillion,
they owe us around
twice
that.
pigeons: always seems
to be an intelligent discussion when
the n word is used
mircea_popescu: does
this mean
the evil empire of iron pots is dominant in china ?
mircea_popescu: now, in china iron pots and pans handle most of
the food
Diablo-D3: and Im of
the camp
that
they're not, not when
they owe us
that much money
Diablo-D3: thats some republican style debating going on
there.
Diablo-D3: so
the _single largest industry in
the world_ is not viable for
this discussion?
the hell?
mircea_popescu: food is however not much of an item in
this discussion
mircea_popescu: hence all
the current attention being paid
to niggers in
the us.
Diablo-D3: food is
the single largest industry in
the world, and has been so for
the past 6000 years.
mircea_popescu: they made pretty decent music, which would count as an item for
this conversation, except it wasn't valued at
the
time. arguably
that gives
them a leg
to stand on
Diablo-D3: all food was handled by slaves, from
the fields
to
the dinner
table.
Diablo-D3: mircea_popescu: okay so,
the black slaves _did_ do all
the work and make all
the items
Diablo-D3: copumpkin: no, I reserve
that word for
the black people who bring up
that
their ancestors were such and
that it means something in
their daily lives
mircea_popescu: you need
to stop glossing when
trying
to
think, it's unseemly.
copumpkin: Diablo-D3: don't you usually use another word for
them?
Diablo-D3: black people, fresh off
the boat from africa, were dominant in
the south before
the civil war
mircea_popescu: copumpkin even better, imagine
the expense and difficulty of beating
the wife you don';t even have. dr. dre got your ass!
mircea_popescu: but i;'dbe very interested
to hear mopre about
this "us ultimately owns
the money, and it lent it
to china for china
to lend it back"
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: yeah, and I just pointed out
that it sounds silly with my laotian example
mircea_popescu: the system as presented stands. inconvenient as
that may be ideologically.
mircea_popescu: i said
the chinese were
taking over, asked how do i measure
this i showed how i measure it.
copumpkin: I wasn't educated in
the british system
copumpkin: nope, I
thought you were advocating doing
that?
mircea_popescu: cause im starting
to dislike british education
too by
this measure.
mircea_popescu: copumpkin did you just
take a system, posit
that it's wrong and
thus proved it being wrong ?
copumpkin: it also doesn't mean
they're better educated
Diablo-D3: too much data from
this
time period will permanently recorded
copumpkin: if we pay a bunch of poor laotians
to make our sweaters, and all our sweaters are made in laos,
that doesn't mean laos is
taking over
Diablo-D3: unfortunately,
the
time of archaeologists is over
mircea_popescu: copumpkin you're welcome
to show your preferred data is better.
copumpkin: I don't really care what archeologists will
think
Diablo-D3: go back
to "beating" your "women", and by
that, I mean posting images and saying its you.
copumpkin: they do it
that way presumably for lack of better data
Diablo-D3: mircea_popescu
thinks he knows
things, how cute
Diablo-D3: they built
the pyramids after all.
Diablo-D3: mircea_popescu: okay, so
the jews were dominant in egypt?
mircea_popescu: copumpkin are you familiar with how archeologists score dominance in
the field ?
Diablo-D3: its optimizing for "the US owns
the company who made it"
copumpkin: it just doesn't seem like a particularly meaningful metric
to measure by
copumpkin: not
that I
think it's all
that great, either
copumpkin: I'm not sure
the US education system is
trying
to optimize for "made in
the US"
Diablo-D3: yes, most of
the money china loaned us,
the federal reserve loaned
them
Diablo-D3: because remember,
they owe
the federal reserve more money
than
the US government owes china
Diablo-D3: well,
then you have
to actually quantify what "china
taking over" is
mircea_popescu: that's why
the chinese have
taken over
the past 20 years
mircea_popescu: make a rule
that all kids scoring in
the last quartile of
their class
take
ten across
the buttocks
Diablo-D3: violence is not
the answer, mircea_popescu.
mircea_popescu: i
think education
that does not include regular beating is an exercise in stupidity indistinguishable from welfare.
gribble: You rated user gmaxwell on Sun Apr 8 09:54:19 2012, giving him a rating of -10, and supplied
these additional notes: hypocritical idiot..
Anduck: "let's ban
the kids" and bans 3 more guys
Anduck: it's just sad he's humiliating me
there. and my friends,
too
Anduck: did not yell or claim anything
to him via pm, it's nonsense
Anduck: if someone goes afk after his
turn it will
take long =D
Anduck: monopoly itself is via client-server but we sometimes
to btc buy-in, winner winning all
Anduck: we've gathered people
there who wants
to play monopoly
mircea_popescu: so who wanted
to play monopoly yest ? smickles ?
thestringpuller ?
mircea_popescu: Some user used an SQLi
to get into
the System and stole
the API keys from
the users.
BTC-Mining: I motion
that we stop
this
topic
this instant. All in favor:
BTC-Mining: Well... I don't know... I suppose each other
throwing general statements we already know at each other just like
that is quite pointless...
knotwork: BTC-M, also no way
to get my coins without hacking my machine / coldwallet :)
BTC-Mining: There's no proof, if
the scammer was careful and went away with funds.
knotwork: Yeah I learned years ago
that I read
the NYT and WSJ and such way
too much
BTC-Mining: Their simple denial
to have any knowledge of it ever happening or holding
the coins would be accepted and
they're free.
BTC-Mining: Which would be worthless, considering most scammers in Bitcoin where always on
TOR and used gpg identity not officially
tied
to anyone.
knotwork: no need for any of
them
to actually ever have been anyone else
smickles: "Trilema happens
to be
the first blog in
the world
that switched
to a paid model, imitated about a year later by
The New York
Times."
knotwork: treat it as
them being
the lawyer's sock-puppets
