mircea_popescu: "ATHENS, Greece (AP) -- Greek disability groups expressed anger Monday at a government decision to expand a list of state-recognized disability categories to include pedophiles, exhibitionists and kleptomaniacs.
mircea_popescu: The National Confederation of Disabled People called the action "incomprehensible," and said pedophiles are now awarded a higher government disability pay than some people who have received organ transplants."
mircea_popescu: well... it's either a disability or it isn't. what, you hate the lame and worship the deaf so you put people without legs in prison and give tax money to the deaf ? pick a stand lol.

phf: mircea_popescu: i think there are two movies about computers that are kind of worth watching, because they manage to broadly capture the period, the hackers and war games.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: there's also a bunch of chicks that are kinda worth fucking that will be old before i get around to them
mircea_popescu: i'd rather rewatch lorna than look at "hollywood does floppy disks"
mircea_popescu: (for the people who weren't hipsters in the 60s, russ meyer is this guy doing footage of chicks with absurdly big natural tits. nothing happens.)
phf: give me that old time religion
mircea_popescu: "What is actually going on is that Apple is attempting to signal to the derps who willingly buy their fashion goods that actual rich people also buy those things." etc
☟︎ mircea_popescu: yes actual rich people also want to buy these things. to wear at the hackathon, to play the role of the billionaire who hangs around and chats with the derps, without having to actually spend any time on like... you know, irc.
ben_vulpes: i'm not interested in it, it's interested in me.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: anyway im just sayin', he speaks as to the theme, and well.
mircea_popescu: "Not even the girls will condescend to it, and if you can't sell fashion goods to the girls, you can't sell the goods." << fun fact, ties are a purchase mostly controlled by women. JUST LIKE HIGH HEELS,
mircea_popescu: i might be the only male alive dictating high heel usage as to type and so forth.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes but anyway, your intuition is broadly correct, the one thing that can make your shop flourish / ensure its survival is heavy duty investment in IP. the real thing, the sort of IP that can't be intellectually-protected.
mircea_popescu: nobody buys their own ties. nobody even WEARS ties without permission. "honey does this go ?"
ben_vulpes: with suits and ties and didn't do the matching originally and daily selection selection on an ongoing basis?
mircea_popescu: (hint : if they do they're gay and think you'd make a great gf)
ben_vulpes: but to return to an earlier fork, what intuition are you talking about? something in that post?
BingoBoingo: I buy my own ties. It's why half of them are bolo ties.
ben_vulpes: tis a vaporous and difficult to grasp sort of thing. embedded in the people, codified where possible.
mod6: ive never been given a tie. i buy all of mine.
ben_vulpes: lol that kid in the patek ad with the safety vest
ben_vulpes: rip out all the branding and there's your class giveaway.
ben_vulpes: "honey, put a vest on the kid" only ever has 2 answers
ben_vulpes: "okay dear" and "what did he forget how to swim?"
BingoBoingo: Phun Phact, Putin is Patek's greatest brand ambassador
mircea_popescu: another fun fact : i never met anyone who actually wore those things
mircea_popescu: people who actually like/can afford those things have all sorts of obscure preferences, people who don't buy rollexes on credit.
mircea_popescu: pp is like a sort of tgi fridays or w/e that thing it's called, a fastrestaurantfood.
mod6: that place punches me in the colon
mircea_popescu: "That's the history of America: come here for the freedom; stay for the cash; and if things get hairy say only God can judge you."
BingoBoingo: When I worked at a watch stand I learned all sorts of lower end brand preferences. White trash likes fossil. More monied white trash like Tag Heuer, or Invicta if they got the collecting compulsion
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: did you actually read the "i spent thousands learning to be a wealth manager" piece? she touches on signaling.
BingoBoingo: Black girls like Guess, Black guys like Nike or esoteric bling brands from more obscure shops. People buy Seiko almost exclusively as gifts...
ben_vulpes: academitard i belive is the local lingo
ben_vulpes: "you, the viewer, become the Dad, with the aspirational images laid out for you: a beautiful and proper wife with culture and delicacy, taking care of your perfect daughter, while you're in the shower scrubbing the scent of concubinage off you. " wahahaha
mircea_popescu: i am of the firm belief that an adult male with wealth and a monofambly is a liability to both the wife and the children.
mircea_popescu: the mistress is a very important surogate for the functional (ie, 3-4 wives) arrangement.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: next thing you know wife gets too confident of her position and the kid's covered in helmets.
☟︎ ben_vulpes: not terrifically uncommon knowledge in "the coven". i think "sex at dawn" is their tract on the topic.
ben_vulpes: a smallish group of girls around here. not an official name or thing by any stretch of the imagination.
ben_vulpes: heh okay i'll bite is 9 1/2 weeks any good?
mircea_popescu: i watched it because of tlp's idiotic fixation on basinger and an insistence on "white heels". a) she wears no heels at all ; b) she is as hot as my doorman.
mircea_popescu: worst fucking film ever, the only thing it informs us is, just how fucktardedly primitive our parents were, sexually speaking.
mircea_popescu: "o really pops, she like, kisses your wee wee that once, and the skin was even retracted ? you go tiger!"
BingoBoingo: Seriously, at least "Three Headed Shark Attack" has tits
ben_vulpes: <mod6> that place punches me in the colon << i lol'd
mod6: place makes me seriously ill.
mircea_popescu: so the truth of the matter is that yes, sexual interest in early teen females is normal and common, and perhaps not ~necessarily~ harmful to the females in question [in those conditions where communication is sparse and pop density is under 1 per sq mile - which pointedly DOES NOT mean NYC or akron, ohio!], whereas sexual interest in bosy the same age is NOT common, or normal. but pathological. period.
mircea_popescu: this yields the serious problem that... when does gayness ripen into no longer pathological ? and why ?

mircea_popescu: EVEN IF they find some way to "fix it" what they'll have found is a way to make empty bottles fake fullness for longer than anyone'd care to inquire.

mircea_popescu: The real question is why it's popular among 15 year old girls? 15 year old girls should, in theory, have grown up without 1970s sexism.
