thestringpuller: Ah. P. Sure plenty of rappers got some Gwen Stefani pussy before she got married.
BingoBoingo: But there's also the Jew producers needed to authorize moving the bezzle for the purchase who'd just love the novelty of pounding a black ass

mircea_popescu: thestringpuller quite probably he was trolling and the whole thing's 100% made up.
mircea_popescu: also for bonus lols, suge is the iiird person singular present tense of "to suck" in romanian.
thestringpuller: BingoBoingo: LOL! It's like marilyn monroe getting plowed on the casting couches but with a twist.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: Suge Knight is rather entertaining. I mean he hung Vanilla Ice out of a window. His involvement with the Straight Outta Compton movie resulted in a murder charge.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo for the record, i like the hammonds a SHITTON of a lot more than i like all the pansy-ass beta bois with their "survival" bullshit and commune bullshit and thinking karl marx is some sort of novel or engaging item bullshit.
BingoBoingo: Right now I'm trying to understand the dispute and its context by writing the first qntra piece on it.
mircea_popescu: and in other news, fuck upbringing. i lived up twenty fucking years thinking you absolutely gotta peel potatoes. god damned, peels' the best part of the fucking potato.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: romanians are fucking insane with the peeling. they'll peel apples.
ascii_rear: what kind of electronic trade box existed then?
mircea_popescu: ", it is likely that USG agents will use lethal force in the form of burning the entire forest down" << this needs hammering out, it doesn't bite.
BingoBoingo: " it is possible that USG agents will use lethal force in the form of burning the entire forest down in order to clear out this pocket of resistance to their oppression, as they burned down the Branch Davidian compound in Waco to eliminate those dissidents." << Does this bite more?
BingoBoingo: Don't not want to mention the likely USG course of action considering their history
jurov: "will use lethal force by"
jurov: mircea_popescu: looks like i received qntra shares
mircea_popescu: you do this thing where you contrive things you deem important. this is not only self-defeating but contrary. if anything should be crisp and simple, it;s what's important.
mircea_popescu: you have been, actually. just now and again manages to slink through anymore.
BingoBoingo: Brian in the head isn't always the most consistent thing.

BingoBoingo: THe Silbert thing prices vs actual BTC on other fiat/btc interfaces
BingoBoingo: "will aim to show that Mein Kampf (My Struggle) is incoherent and badly written, rather than powerful or seductive. From the original book's 1,000 pages, the publisher has produced a two-volume book that is twice as long as the original, with 3,700 annotations."
BingoBoingo: old people watching the telly is a serious problem keeping people who could support Bundy instead hysterical over Trump

mircea_popescu: "It was an eighteen year old girlnice and innocent looking. Big eyes. You'd like her. They'd eat her alive down hereand her grandfather from York Pennsylvania who used her GPS to get to the nearest mall that carries the brand of purse she was looking for."
mircea_popescu: actually, the experience of "being eaten alive"'d probably be the best education girl's ever going to get.

punkman: whole potato recipe: start fire, wash potatos, make pile of embers, wrap potatos in Al-foil, poke some holes with a fork, throw on embers, cook a steak or something while waiting. take out potatos, let em cool, break in big chunks, then deep fry.
kakobrekla: i prefer 'krompir v oblicah'. cook em, slice in half and eat with butter/cream+onions
punkman: I usually go for the butter too
punkman: best to avoid the skin if it looks greenish or has sprouts though
jurov: apparently al-foil was too expensive, we put them into embers directly
jurov: yea, the skin is not edible after that. but delicious, too.
jurov: (the inside is delicious, i mean)
jurov: i had nfi dylsexia can be fixed with a mirror
punkman: probably more of an art piece
phf: ben_vulpes: can still run mcl if you have a ppc mac laying around.
https://code.google.com/p/mcl/ and ftp://clozure.com/pub/rmcl.zip. the source was released when digitool finally disolved couple of years ago, and some clozure people did work on it to get it to work under rosetta (that's the rmcl thing).
phf: i have rmcl installed on an old ibook with os 9, i use it to work through algorithms in papers and such (i.e. don't care about speed, and want a focused environment)
phf: (oh i just got to the last part of the article where they say what i just said)
mircea_popescu: <jurov> i had nfi dylsexia can be fixed with a mirror <<< not fixed, but apparently it's mostly a training deficit. people working with mirrors been doing seemingly miraculous shit.
ben_vulpes: ERROR: sys-devel/gdb-7.9.1::gentoo failed (compile phase):
ben_vulpes: ^^ things i did not expect to see today but am nevertheless not terribly surprised by
ben_vulpes: is it so much to expect the gentoo package manager to know how to install gdb?
ben_vulpes: must i actually compile this motherfucker myself?
