deedbot: b1thoven voiced for 30 minutes.
jhvh1: BingoBoingo: The operation succeeded.
mircea_popescu: i thought the libertards established that "online polls aren't scientific" given that they actually reflect the electoral reality rather than their preferred fiction.
mircea_popescu: "The growing interest in Ethereum has been one of the most significant blockchain technology developments of 2016."
shinohai: This is true, but requires further research. Will report back in when I return from Miami.
trinque reread the myth of consent just now, appropriately enough.
shinohai: Nope, I live near thestringpuller
trinque: struck me this time through how far "with-feeling" is from the commonly understood "definition"
trinque: what a shithole that's become
trinque: fat wigger descendents of bartenders and strippers
trinque: brings to mind a conversation had with my lady friend, gist of which is that "modern angry feminist" in the states is nothing more than a (deeply resented) survival move, reacting to the complete lack of sane males in this country.
trinque: reuter's recent headline after the weekend was something like "Failure to Implode"
trinque: uh uh he's failing to fail is all, look away!
mircea_popescu: In a recent interview, Obama’s 2008 opponent, John McCain marveled at his own challenges when trying to connect with African American voters. “I didn’t get a single vote in the whole inner city of Philadelphia,” the Arizona GOP senator told POLITICO. “I thought maybe they could find one.” << pretty lulzy.
mircea_popescu: Obama said. “So my suggestion would be go out there and try to win the election. If Mr. Trump is up 10 or 15 points on Election Day and ends up losing, then maybe he can raise some questions.” << even better. lol.
mircea_popescu: bitcoin is backed by lulz and drama ; and the us election is apparently made of lulz, and drama.
mircea_popescu: anyway, he apparently killed it with that debate, got a 15% surge in support.
trinque: "I will put her in prison" could only be trumped by "I will flog her on national TV"
mircea_popescu: i dun think anyone really wants to see her old ass educated.
mircea_popescu: "Clinton’s performance was less-than-stellar, which may be just a meaner way of saying it was good as we ever could have expected. She has this tendency to look very self-satisfied after delivering a zinger that’s clearly been crafted by someone else in Brooklyn and then tested on voters in a fish tank. It’s grating." << to put it charitably.
mircea_popescu: in unrelated but equally uninteresting news, the argentine natl bank introduced 500 peso notes, lifting the maximum bill from its ~6 dollar value to heights incomprehensible by the locals. (who think themselves rich and don't ever have 30 dollars in cash in their hands, like ever).
mircea_popescu: there's larger denominations coming out. this is just a step in a wider plan to liquidate the country. for rather many years, the socialist government pumped pesos into the pockets of its clientele, a bunch of lice concentrated around the capital.
mircea_popescu: having absoluterly nothing to do with it, because they're literally lice, not people, they pumped up real estate values ; and "educated" their kids in the sense of giving them very us-like diplomas in cutting up cardboard.
mircea_popescu: (literally, this, and i've documented it. the "architecture" university consists of building cardboard boxes. the "social sciences" university consists of painting posters by hand. etc etc, all education here is paper and glue handicrafts like for mongoloids. which their kids ACTUALLY ARE, if i see another 20something girl walking hand in hand WITH HER FUCKING MOTHER im burning the place down. only country where it's social a
mircea_popescu: cceptable for teenage females to dress 11 and behave 7.)
ben_vulpes: well now i expect all of ba to burn tomorrow
mircea_popescu: to preserve the insanely inflated real estate values (really, 1k to 1.5k per square meter, ie 5x san francisco ; and the amenties are eastern europe in the 1990s level, their windows whistle in the wind, there's no gas heaters anywhere etc etc) they choked the money supply
ben_vulpes: no way you don't see the handholding tomorrow.
mircea_popescu: so the battle is pretty simple : a bunch of fucktarded "middle class" idiots in their own mind, concentrated in buenos aires, expecting their "real estate" to sell for 200k usd per dingy appartnment unfit for the ghetto ; and their educations to bring serious payola in govt jobs
mircea_popescu: versus a bunch of ambitious industrialists, stuck outside and who want to utterly ruin the other group.
mircea_popescu: macri is doing everything to help them. it'll be a bloodbath, and it'll be a bloodbath i'll enjoy.
mircea_popescu: ni una menos indeed. ni una menos without a cock in her mouth.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform found a great icecream place to replace the other one. so yeah, it's great. for me.
mircea_popescu: it'll be hell for them, and i intend to piss gasoline on faces.
mircea_popescu: ima build a line of hookers chained to poles the whole length of avenida del libertador yet.
ben_vulpes: the man's metabolism never ceases to amaze
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: for rocket fueling depot
mod6: <+ben_vulpes> the man's metabolism never ceases to amaze << i lel'd.
mod6: and i continue to lel at the documented state of the "architecture" univeristy.
mircea_popescu: you understand this ? EXPECT. TO GET. because that's how it fucking works now.
trinque finds the elliot pieces coming to him daily now
trinque: I AM HERE, AND THEREFORE PERFECT
trinque: you see it goddamned everywhere
mircea_popescu: watching the "progressive" libertards denounce "unscientific online polls" and "russian hacked internet" is pretty fucking epic.
mircea_popescu: fancy that, the revolution will not be worldwidewebbed after all!
mod6: what was that .ar slogan again? cracks me up
mod6: something about everyone having a better life or something
mircea_popescu: it's hysterical ; they have absolutely no fucking future.
mod6: it was plastered on a bunch of signs down there.
mircea_popescu: functionally illiterate ; entirely innumerate. the chinese have to run the supermarkets because the locals lack basic business ability.
mircea_popescu: pretty much the peak of argentine technical know-how is operating call centers.
mircea_popescu: problem is a) they are too dumb to learn english, so they can only fight for the mexico and spanish markets
mod6: you're right though, this is coming to the US. i dare say, we're nearly there now!
mircea_popescu: and b) they expect euro like salaries for some incomprehensible reason.
trinque: fuck man, I was buying a belt today
trinque: you should've seen the things, two stitches on a folded piece of plastic^W"leather"
trinque: apparently nordstrom still has belts, for now
mircea_popescu: they got great leather belts here. and leather generally.
trinque: fucking sad; even the one I paid 120 for will probably fall apart next year
mod6: I bought some decent leather belts for my suits here, but prepare to pay top dollar for /actual/ craftmanship and leather.
mircea_popescu bought belt recently, told girl he wants to test it, girl bent over slightly and turned her generous posterior, /me whacked her one.
mod6: Otherwise, shitty qual.
trinque: mircea_popescu: ahaha my thought was precisely "I'll break this!!"
mod6: I was thinking today that I should start a rope company. lol.
mod6: I think we're gonna need a lot of rope.
mod6: Hmm. Have to buy it maybe, or grow?!
mircea_popescu: needs some industrial process. growing's easy enough, shit's practically a marsh weed. but to get the fiber you gotta beat it.
mircea_popescu: bout 5x the mechanical work needed for cotton. which is how cotton won (in 1800. when work was expensive)
mod6: i told you, like three times to buy it dude.
ben_vulpes: trinque: even spells nordstrom correctly!
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> bout 5x the mechanical work needed for cotton. which is how cotton won (in 1800. when work was expensive) << ah, hm.
mircea_popescu: can't be that, because you didn't go grab the gypsy girl by the cunt that invited you too, either.
mod6: i should have just bought them for ya asciilifeform
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i dun recall if you were there, took a walk in the ghetto, chicks heard us speak english.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: did you see davout's gypsies?
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: then no, they were visible even to asciilifeform
mod6: yah, there was that bazaar or whatever ben
mod6: i bout had a heart attack when i lost track of alf in the crowd.
ben_vulpes: mod6: that was no ghetto that was an up and down tourist trap
mod6: yah, i didn't think it was a ghetto, just sprang up out of nowhere lol.
mod6: mike & I were lookin everywhere for alf.
mod6: Was it Mike? Might hvae been davout.
mod6: yeah, he's been mia for some time now.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: and his bouncer reconnects!
trinque: last I spoke with mike_c I gave him pgsql info to update btcalpha
mircea_popescu: let it be stated i fucked in a dozen states all over the coast mkay ?
ben_vulpes: what's the difference between coors light and sex in a canoe?
trinque: lol in costa rica I asked a guy what his favorite local beer was
ben_vulpes: less non-alcohol-or-water contaminants though
mircea_popescu: (quilmes is this very shitty local swill. made through the same process as us beer / sodas : hfcs water and "naturally identical" flavouring)
trinque: "oh oh, Imperial. It is like the local Budweiser!"
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: did you figure it out yet?
mod6: <+ben_vulpes> what's the difference between coors light and sex in a canoe? << lol fucking close to water
ben_vulpes: "not much, they're both fucking close to water"
trinque: CR has a bit of that "no es un pais pobre"
mircea_popescu: o btw asciilifeform lolz of all time, i nearly fell down : chejov.
mod6: the 2nd best part of Mr. P.'s riddle was the cognac. remember that place?
trinque: ben_vulpes: I mean PDX is at least stripclub-rich
ben_vulpes: trinque: all that really means is that there are a bunch of shitty strippers
ben_vulpes: i have been touring random clubs when i take the corvette out for its weekly "please don't freeze up" runs
ben_vulpes: pdx surprisingly does not actually have an in-facility strip club, much to my shame.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: much of my woes were to attempting to talk to the thing over /dev/tty.usbmodem123445671 instead of /dev/cu.usbmodem12345671
trinque: OS X actually calls it "cu" ?
ben_vulpes: $bizpartner (/me waves) says there is all sorts of inane horseshit involved in how os x handles devices, with odd text files and os restarts in the loop
ben_vulpes: 1:1 with gizmos? or you found an supplier of the probe alone
mircea_popescu: in other uninteresting nonsense, did that random whore with a non christian name get billionz off musk in divorce or how did it plkay out ?
ben_vulpes: > whose fitful relationship culminated in a first trip down the alter
ben_vulpes: god fuck, vanity fair is full of dipshits even now?
ben_vulpes: dude was there even anything of your childhood to rot?
ben_vulpes: institutions that at one point produced quality wares that as you aged -- stopped?
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> no more sorority sluts ? << Problem is the descendents
trinque: ben_vulpes: for some reason, now in my head plays "hey mr carter, where have you been?"
trinque: I watched that wretched interview with the Y Combinator fuck. Elon looked positively submissive.
trinque: if there's a usg.antichrist it's him.
trinque forgets his name; it's quite forgettable
ben_vulpes: the one who didn't actually do anything but wrote enough about the circus that he got pulled in to play ringmaster?
trinque: watching that (musk hunched over, nodding, laughing nervously) it was obvious he knew who signs his check
mircea_popescu: lol sam altman ? ahahaha. guy's more or less a whore, of no practical consequence.
ben_vulpes: "young carter/go farther/go further/go harder/is that not/why we came?/and if not/then why bother?"
trinque: mircea_popescu: yep, and rocketman was sweating, "uhm"-ing, and lowering his head
mircea_popescu: ~none of the "leadersheeps" of the "free world" are very leadershippy.
mircea_popescu: it's particularly funny when very old nobodies keep thanking each other for each other's leadersheep. as fucking if.
mircea_popescu: i mean for all his warts, trump was made possible by a fucking void.

mats: nate silver (of 'fivethirtyeight' fame) believes hrc has 79.9% chance of winning
trinque: how's he rate the outcome of the subsequent world war?
mircea_popescu: is this the guy who ran some sort of "AI" to make predictions and then decided to "turn it off" because something sounding a lot like yakowsky or w/e the harry potter fanfic writer's name is ?
mircea_popescu: so his theory is 48 to 44% in popular vote but 318 to 219 in electoral votes. should be funny to see how this plays out
mircea_popescu: "Our win probabilities come from simulating the election 20,000 times, which produces a distribution of possible outcomes for each state. Here are the expected margins of victory. The closer the dot is to the center line, the tighter the race." << ahahaha wtf is this, global warming science applied to politics ?

mats: 'dangerous faggot tour'
mats: after ten minutes of research i figured out milo yiannopoulos is gay
mats: i had to watch a number of these videos on breitbart before i figured it out
trinque: he's gay and hates the state; no US college would accept that dissertation
trinque: guy might actually be one of those mythical beasts that's actually gay, rather than psychologically broken
mats: he's speaking at a lot of universities i'd expect to be liberal havens, ie UCLA, Stanford
mats: bit shocked he's not getting shut out on the basis of hate speech tbh
mats: these headlines are hilarious though
mats: "MILO: Feminist Control Of The Web Would Be Worse Than Giving It To China"
mats: "Milo: Why Islamic Preachers Prey On Gingers ... MILO explained why gingers are more likely to become Islamic extremists — because they’re ugly and unloved."

mircea_popescu: mats> bit shocked he's not getting shut out on the basis of hate speech tbh << he's the officially designated muppet to cover that area, the idea being that he'll outcompete the genuine plants in the niche, while being firmly loyal to the system.
mircea_popescu: there's nothing quite as lulzy as a middle aged woman who thinks herself smart. except, of course, for a group of them.
shinohai: ^ yeah saw that yesterday, think I posted another link about it, lulzy stuff

mircea_popescu: Making Bitcoin-based networks to sell taboo erotica was very hip for a few months last year. None of those networks ever made a single successful sale to the best of my knowledge (I tried many of them, never got anything more than annoyed emails from fans asking why the website didn't work). As far as I know, this is no longer a thing. I'm not aware of any Bitcoin site that allows you to sell any kind of digital erotica." <<
