mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, i just did it, so yeah. fly avianca though, via colombia, leaving either spain or germany. easily the best airline over the
atlantic today.
BingoBoingo: ty, In that case I'll move Belgrade up with the first round of
Atlantic Rim targets.
BingoBoingo suspects naively that airlifting to an IXP will push us towards Austria/Turkey/Poland/Belarus/etc on the other side of the
Atlantic. On this side of the
Atlantic mebbe Fortaleza, Brasil/Venezuela/Mexico/Panama but I suspect Panama is an awful choice
BingoBoingo: If Chile was a bit further north, and either got rid of the Andes or found
Atlantic instead of Pacific coast it could have maybe been an option.
mircea_popescu: because of strategic ineptitude, brazil could actually take over the
atlantic fleed from the us within a few years.
Mocky:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-08#1859485 >> we headed up the east coast from raleigh past dc, ny, and started over the
atlantic at cape cod. shortly after cape cod we turned back to nyc. pilot said primary systems all functioning correctly but a backup system has a malfunction light on and they cant fly more than an hour from land like that.
☝︎ diana_coman: back from wherever they got but surely not from london, lol! I understood it was the type of "took off, flew a bit, something wrong, going back because can't risk attempting to cross the
atlantic"
BingoBoingo: 500km is Brasil, Buenos Aires, the
Atlantic Ocean, and Paraguay
mircea_popescu: how do you call them ? doods jammed in traffic on the information superhighway, listening to the
atlantic talk radio show.
shinohai: Don't want to use process restarter on this box ben_vulpes ... if it goes down I'd rather know why. I don't really trust
atlantic anymore tbh
mircea_popescu: but anyway, in between "here's what the french
atlantic said about german cars, bmw is worst ever" and retweets of "Having kids to give life meaning creates more lives that need meaning. Basically it’s a Ponzi scheme." he did entertain me for a few minutes, so not all is lost.
mircea_popescu: item is 1950s revival of pre 1915 extant item with utility (cross the
atlantic pleasantly)
mircea_popescu: doing utterly 3rd tier "gnome asia summit", for the same money he could be entertaining in
atlantic city.
mircea_popescu: depends. would it have been featured on the
atlantic ?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i would be surprised if there wasn't somewhere in teh walls of supersekrit beijing a document describing how creating an equivalent of the north
atlantic in the south china sea is a fundamental chinese military/strategic goal for the year 2030.
BingoBoingo: One thing that is becoming clear appears to be having
Atlantic coast seemingly predicts better internet than Pacific coast
mircea_popescu: and off the many bridges off the golden horn, also. and into the
atlantic off buenos aires.
mircea_popescu: "That tragic and intractable phenomenon which we watch with horror on the other side of the
Atlantic but which there is interwoven with the history and existence of the States itself, is coming upon us here by our own volition and our own neglect. Indeed, it has all but come. In numerical terms, it will be of American proportions long before the end of the century."
mircea_popescu: there's a difference across the
atlantic, conservative/republican aren't ~same, so on.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-21 13:10 asciilifeform: so, pilot suddenly dies, machine is somewhere over
atlantic. it drops immediately..?
mircea_popescu: the beach goes to both
atlantic and pacific though, and the mountain's really a volcano, but anyway
ben_vulpes:
atlantic even did a piece on a victorian child bride recently
mircea_popescu: an' veracruz is like, right next to oaxaca, on the
atlantic rather than the pacific side.
mircea_popescu: foregone conclusion anyway, i see zero possibility of outfits like iab / conde nast / the
atlantic / new york times / guardian / etcetera borrowing in the future. they won't be able to finance ops, and so it's myspace time for them all.
mats: i don't know anybody else that regularly reads the
atlantic mircea_popescu: "
Atlantic Halibut are Officially OK, but those from the Pacific Ocean are FORBIDDEN. If a halibut threatens to break your knees, especially if your fishmonger operates out of a New Jersey strip joint, enjoy dinner. Salmon is bad unless Sarah Palin shot it." lmao this guy...
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, this is what happens when you don't build an
Atlantic wall to keep spammers from becoming immigrants
mircea_popescu: nah, they had ports throughout - the indian ocean for the portuguese ; the
atlantic for the english.
mircea_popescu: that evidence doesn't meet your standard is irrelevant - stuff like "ship across
atlantic" very neatly met theirs.
PeterL: BA and Europe both touch
Atlantic, therefore they must be nearby each other
mircea_popescu: but for the spanish,
atlantic was "fly over zone", and as you say, they'd have loved to "separate it".
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-10#1500553 << it's the
atlantic, gawker & rest of "mainstream" in their own minds crapolade. 1. "an event happened, here's what i was doing at that exact time : {picking my nose|wiping drool off chin|clicking through pictures of redditards / stuff cats wrote} ; 2. "here's why X real entity that doesn't give a shit about us ~might very well~ do Y thing that's only relevant in our context".
☝︎ mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo imagine, if all the various "intellectual leaders" on the basis of the accomplishment of having been so epithet'd by the "opinion formers" of the
atlantic & gawker end up having to work 12 hours a day building a wall in arizona.
mircea_popescu: doesn't have to find you across the
atlantic, just lock on you if you come within 100km
assbot: Logged on 12-03-2016 05:09:02; assbot: President Obama’s Interview With Jeffrey Goldberg on Syria and Foreign Policy - The
Atlantic ... (
http://bit.ly/1U7JRX1 )
mircea_popescu: pre-tsa a dollar was worth a dollar, and an airship capable of taking a few hundred people across the
atlantic was worth a coupla hundred million dollars.
mircea_popescu: fucktarded
atlantic article. "oh, reddit matters, everyone cares about us"
mats: I'm not sure you see how tiresome it is to rehash the discussion as follows -- 'gtfo off leaky ship already', 'am in middle of
atlantic', 'so swim to island (without provisions)', 'then get on a ship without holes', 'there are none on horizon', 'getting on that ship in the first place is a problem of a logical class', 'yes, but... am here'
ascii_field: can't speak for other side of the
atlantic, but over here 'security deposit' is to be returned to the tenant when he leaves, minus repair costs, the latter to be presented in writing and with receipts from repairmen
shinohai: I might host a node down the road a bit, my experience trying this with
Atlantic was less-than-stellar and set me back some.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it was acquired by greylock and
atlantic, who, according to him, fucked it all up.
mircea_popescu: eulora was also unreachable across teh
atlantic apparently.
