mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo is this based of that derp in the baffler or anything else ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: It's based on the part where he hasn't hired a campaign staff or raised any money.

BingoBoingo: But seriously the GOP collapse is more lulz than I imagined
mircea_popescu: now they're whining about how "an independent run about non-trump ''conservatives''' would be ''devastating''". what fucking conservatives ? moreover, weren't they NOT whining about the actual disaster of trump running without them, winning and then that's that for the gop ?
ascii_deadfiber: i dun see the 'winning.' the man is the american zhirinovsky - crafted heat sink for excitable 'red state' folk.
mircea_popescu: yeah. it's usually the designated loss monkey that wins and then beheads everyone who ever dreamed of "designating"
mircea_popescu: gernika designated being the key word here. like you know, elaine's moment when she realises that if she claims her rapist is her boyfriend, she's no longer the office skank but just a woman in love.
mircea_popescu recalls with some amusement the certain certainness of various derps, "professional" as well as amateur, ritously explaining how trump won't get the nomination.
mircea_popescu: "o no guise, we were all in on it, it's been all a farce all along!1111!"
gernika: ascii_deadfiber: if Trump is a loss monkey, why risk assassination for it? Seems not worth it.
BingoBoingo: There was an attempt on him this past weekend
gernika: attempted by a brit last week or so, in Nevada. grabbed a cop's gun
mircea_popescu: ascii_deadfiber wouldn't that be the best of all possible words, he's actually dead and has been for weeks. like that chinese emperor.
ascii_deadfiber: if he doesn't play the script, won't live long, this is quite obvious
gernika: This was after a solid week of "Trump is racist" headlines for the Curiel thing.
BingoBoingo: didn't make it past trying to take cop's gun though
mircea_popescu: ascii_deadfiber make some falsifiable prediction and attach an "i will forever renounce my heretic views about the usg mattering in any sense" to it already.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo gernika guy wasn't even in the room or anything was he ?
trinque: trump isn't smart enough to be a part of some vast lizard conspiracy.
mircea_popescu: only took them ~half the time to lose everything that it took to build.
trinque: he's just some overgrown cheeto that got "rich" riding the froth of fiat currency, and he's going to talk in circles while we fall apart, to great applause
mircea_popescu: trinque the important narrative here, very much in the achilean vein, is that BECAUSE he isn't "sophisticated" which really means corrupted, ie "civilised" enough THEREFORE he can't win.
trinque: meanwhile hillary might piss off russia enough to do something interesting; who knows
mircea_popescu: that he doesn't have clinton's alleged advaqntages (to quote the baffler derp, "hyper prepared") is such a large advantage nothing ELSE the woman can do matters.
trinque: there were a few 10s of thousands of people around his rally a mile from here
trinque: he's bringing out the old, fat, sad fucks that liked reagan, and their kids
mircea_popescu: and this is the point : they keep pushing the "debate" to bury this point. usg wants people to actually believe "civilisation is good for you ; and please don't look at how EVERY SINGLE TIME the barbarian rapes the colon"
mircea_popescu: anyway, young country, no political experience, no culture, no history, no nation, no language, no nothing. curse of youth is to be stupid in this way.
trinque: yeah. he's no warlord; he's just the plastic toy version the US squeezed out before dying

mircea_popescu: o wait, they do this "share hot tub with random people" thing now don't they
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder in honesty, he seems a lot more adequate to the spirit, needs and aspirations of the place than anyone else since, perhaps, kennedy. he is EXACTLY the "fake it" bullshitter americans have become. and his "figures" are exactly the "engagement numbers" of "online businesses".
mircea_popescu: rarely has there been a more truthfully representative politician seen in any democratic race. worldwide, historically.
Bugpowder: I kinda want him to just come in and kick ass… but I don’t think he is capable of following thru

trinque: see, this is why people who usually wouldn't pay attention to someone that inarticulate are on some level tempted to indulge, at least here
trinque: like gernika says, those types loathe him, so he's at least an epic lulzmine
gernika: trinque: it's not just the libtards that loathe him. I think the libertarians as well, and they might hate him more.

mircea_popescu: ascii_deadfiber i was thinking about this too. so now we're going to saddle him with protecting the idiots. what is this, minidao ?
ascii_deadfiber: mircea_popescu would be delighted to learn that americans (at least around here) also aren't especially fond of signalling turns.

ben_vulpes: i have removed side view mirrors for that offense.
ben_vulpes: my local-as-in-my-ten-foot-bubble requires it.
mircea_popescu: well, this is the true problem of political decay : society decays too, and in this precise manner. what used to be an ideologically-mediated disconnect between action and representation ("if you see a fire don't jump into it, call the FD, it's better that way) becomes a fully separated disconnect, mediated by nothing.

ascii_deadfiber: incidentally, when i lived in uni dorm the net pipe rocked and never failed.
ascii_deadfiber: (heat in the winter, water, toilets, etc. - failed. net - never.)
diana_coman: ascii_deadfiber> (heat in the winter, water, toilets, etc. - failed. net - never.) <- same in my uni dorms for the very simple reason that the network was made and maintained by us, students living there
ascii_deadfiber: net pipe situation in usa is astonishing. when i was at $rupturefarm... this was a 'beltway bandit', usg contracting shop with princely budget, building had gilded doorknobs and other nonsense, but net was 'comcast' gas modem.
mircea_popescu: the many republics before the republic. they all worked.
ascii_deadfiber: folks went over to coffee shops to teleconference with clients, etc.
diana_coman: we even lived at some point without a toilet door for about 2-3 months (they were renovating the faculty dorm building and somehow the start of the uni year had taken them by surprise) but there would have been a riot if there was no net for 1 day
ascii_deadfiber: diana_coman: 'toilet door' being the front door? or the stall doors
mircea_popescu: i suspect it was one of those prison showers & shittery combos.
diana_coman: more like stall door - we lived in a kind of 2 rooms/2 bathrooms thing (4 girls in each room)
diana_coman: so on the plus side we had our "own" bathroom, on the minus side it had no door
mircea_popescu: lol. "on the plus side, i have my own kitchen. on the minus side, let's go eat out."
ascii_deadfiber: but they would have 1 bathroom per 2 rooms there, and railway-style doors with 'semaphore' lock
diana_coman: oh, and on the first day after the renovation thing I get into the room by pushing on the door with all my might and then I notice that the floor is bulging all over the place
mircea_popescu: diana_coman that's good in case your high heels aren't even.
diana_coman: I take the carpet away to discover that they had put it on top of all the bits and pieces of walls and whatnot they had gotten down to change the window frames
diana_coman: mircea_popescu> lol. "on the plus side, i have my own kitchen. on the minus side, let's go eat out." <- that's the full story of uni dorms really
mircea_popescu: diana_coman the little bitches here are whining that "costs - by the sky, presupuestos (ie, "conditii"), under the floors". you should see the fucking place, i nearly wept for 1970s nostalgia.

ascii_deadfiber: was it mircea_popescu who showed me what i was quite certain was an old ru key
ascii_deadfiber: i had a gigantic bag full of such keys as a boy to play with.
mircea_popescu: of course i've not seen any kids with the threaded key around neck here yet.
diana_coman: I think it might even be illegal in the US if I'm not mistaking? (kid alone in the street coming/going to school)
mircea_popescu: depends, what's legal and illegal in the states varies a lot by where you live, the color of your skin, whether you're married to one woman or just live with half a dozen etc.
ben_vulpes: there are myriad small children running around off leash in my neighborhood.
ben_vulpes: but i suppose this falls under "where you live, color of skin"
ben_vulpes: current enclave is not particularly monied. there is a trailer park less than a quarter mile away.
ascii_deadfiber: ben_vulpes: distance is not especially good metric. ever been to baltimore?
ascii_deadfiber: they have 'black' streets with multiple condemned row houses and regular corpse removal calls, and perhaps 50m away there is 'white' street with $2mil houses.
ben_vulpes: really aren't "not white" streets here
ascii_deadfiber: but i have some clues. homo usaticus is veeery well-bred for parochialism. easily compartmented. i learned recently that there is a trailer park 20min away from where i live. but i have never once seen it, nor any of the people in it!
ascii_deadfiber: they do not go to any of the same places, the roads are arranged such that you will never glimpse it, etc.
trinque: no one goes outside anymore
ascii_deadfiber: this would be perhaps why the 'blacks burn black streets' thing.

mircea_popescu: ascii_deadfiber anyway, back to the topic of bleeding the usg : you understand that the largest loss in its history was ~10bn via MS on the subprime crap. this is already percents of that.
mircea_popescu: the etherape easily figures in the top 50 most costly mistakes of usg agencies to date.
ascii_deadfiber: supposing that they 1) bought the coin 2) can't simply steal it back -- i can see it
mircea_popescu: ascii_deadfiber that bit of irrelevance is also not germane. possibly ms "stole the 9bn back", via treasury fiat printing. so ?
deedbot: ascii_deadfiber voiced for 30 minutes.
ascii_deadfiber: is this something like 'liver transplant for a corpse' theorem ?
mircea_popescu: no, it's just that if you write down the historical trade losses of usg agents to date, etherape figures way towards the top. this is more than, say, gaddafi ever managed.
ascii_deadfiber: but not more than any number of their idiot 'own goals', e.g., the 'littoral combat ship'
ascii_deadfiber: the f35 was pure embezzlement, the bloody ship - was actually built, expending strategic metals, labour, etc. of a whole pyramid army
mircea_popescu: they're 3 to 500mn underwater, depending what exact accounting standard you employ, and on other things. this may seem like a joke to you, but it's pretty fucking far from a joke to them. and the fact that they naively authorised more funds to try and buy their way out of it because mp said "rape"... well. it's not even cautered yet, still bleeding.
mircea_popescu: the difference being that those scams go into buying harvard yachts ; whereas these losses go into buying isis spiked condoms./
ascii_deadfiber: some 'creative thinker' decided that a floating 'stealth bomber' would be just the thing.
mircea_popescu: this is a HUGE difference, even a 100/1 split is pure death.

ascii_deadfiber: incidentally - and i've not been keeping up with altsc4mz - but, is it necessarily the case that eth price was propped up by burning btc ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, the story of ther "littoral combat ship" really should be told. derps wanted a sort of "automated gunship" but on water, to fight drug people. ended up with a ship that's entirely useless.
mircea_popescu: ascii_deadfiber it's one of those things, "mp has no proof", nor is he offering any.

mircea_popescu: they wanted THIRTY EIGHT PESOS for the thing. this is as much as it costs in the poshiest cafe i go to.
mircea_popescu: yet it tasted like exactly what it should have tasted, which is to say week old army coffee.

phf: there's of course no xpdf compatible client for libpopper, but you have your choice of KDE4/GNOME10 monstrosities
phf: but i think the library problem is separate from dwim problem, where retards find all these levers, and go "oh i can rube goldber level 1 to lever 12 so that, but i'm missing an
http client library to do this so i'm just going to bring in libweb and everything will be peachy keen"
phf: i guess the two are in lockstep. you get pdf in your email, you save it to file, you open it with xpdf. a dwim equivalent is to open it, dwiw style, right in the mail client. can't do that with xpdf (actually you can but need to read specs for x11, yawn), so make xpdf into a library, embed the whole thing into client.
