mp_en_viaje: but seriously : asciilifeform has over ~all the other morons of his ilk (though they prefer to call themselves "engineers" or w/e) the significant superiority that he wants out of his idiocy at least to the degree of talking about it, contrasted to the
more customary "keeping to themselves".
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in "
whisperers" historical idiocy : woman is known as le Bel Ange Nu, supposedly because went about ~naked. no fucking paintings survive documenting the theory. idiots.
hanbot: inb4 this becomes the "
whisperers" thread all over again

whisperers, where whatever i have i can't make use of. my vague comments about old men and gold chests are

whisperers ☟︎ phf: asciilifeform: there was already _one_ conversation, i made my _conclusions_. your adventage is that you can basically just rant in the open, make insulting fucking statements in "general direction" of those bolix
whisperers. where's i lose by having this in public record. i told you as much _at the very beginning_. but you clearly shit on my efforts, i mean you have been saying as much in public for a year, so you don't lose anything
mircea_popescu: so now. is the case as you publicly present it, "phf has been not helping for year +" or is the case as he publicly presents it, "i tried to help a year ago but granularity didn't match and then he went on a campaign of fuming about
whisperers ''in general'' transparently in reference to the particuylar case and i was stuck sitting and listening to it."

whisperers etc. and then you come back with "i wonder how you got your hands

whisperers.
a111: Logged on 2017-03-11 00:21 asciilifeform: for instance, i struggled to find the genera source, and then YEARS later i found out that 'the
whisperers' have been quietly passing it around
fromloper: I've read the
whisperers discussion here, seems to be plausible
mircea_popescu: as per teh "
whisperers" discussion : after you write, it's his problem. before you do, however, murkier.
phf: i didn't actually quit programming, omg. this is reminiscent of the
whisperers thread, where a strawman, once chosen, because the only possible direction of conversation
phf: i would very much like to start a clandestine operation called "the
whisperers", but since it's not in the logs, someone else will have to do it
phf: i think there's a lot of general "couldn't care less"-ness going on all around.
whisperers don't care about asciilifeform's plight
phf: i think the implication is that "
whisperers" are so poor (being dirty redditors) they can't even buy a cheap fpga
phf: yes, but i can't speak for other "
whisperers"
