mircea_popescu: the case of the whore is not of "man who walks into room and overpowers all those present", but instead "woman walks into room and seduces all those present".
mircea_popescu: these are very much not the same : i can say "i'm not interested" in the woman case only.

mircea_popescu: ok, but where ?
asciilifeform: what diff does it make for whom the bagman bagmans
mircea_popescu: all the difference in the world, neh ? what difference does it make for whom the postman brings letters ? well, if he brings othello letters from desdemona, he is a sort of cupid ; and if they are from the doge, a sort of mercury.
asciilifeform: i dun see how this applies to robbery tho. how does it make a diff to me ~why~ i am being robbed.
asciilifeform: i.e. whether it is because luciano wants new yacht or new whore
asciilifeform: robbed just the same, neh
mircea_popescu: so you just wanted the money ?
mircea_popescu: if you spend it, does it make a difference to you what you spend it on ?

mircea_popescu: but not otherwise.
asciilifeform: how would it make a diff to me how the robber spends it.
mircea_popescu: how he spends it is not the item, but who or rather what he is.
asciilifeform: all robbers are entirely the same type of thing from my pov, and vary only in skill and size.
asciilifeform: and are as desirable a thing to have around, as cancer and landslides.
mircea_popescu: and i suppose if i were come to your house tomorrow unbidden, sit on your couch and pour myself a glass of wine you'll say you weren't robbed ?
asciilifeform: dunno, didja take the couch home?
mircea_popescu: im taking some wine to the bathroom in any event.
mircea_popescu: the "it was not robbery for [insert reasons]" is the common, but also nonsensical escape from this fix. the correct way out is to notice that yes you were robbed, but it matters who does it.
asciilifeform: uninvited guest in your house at night, is rarely a friend.
mircea_popescu: sure, rarely. yet you can be robbed of your heart and not mind the loss any.
asciilifeform: this mixing of unlikes, dirty thinking, mircea_popescu barfs when other folx do it.
mircea_popescu: the only problem's that they are unlikes here.
mircea_popescu: whether they are* i mean
asciilifeform: luciano is no friend of mine, my couch is not his couch, no wine willingly give to him.
mircea_popescu: but that so far as luciano.
mircea_popescu: can you say "no one is a friend of mine" ? and if you can, what does it mean, "wine" ?

asciilifeform: not being a gurl, i dun see any blur in the line between the willingly and unwillingly given wine , b/w friend and foe
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it can't possibly be willingly given, i didn't ask.
asciilifeform: and where i live it is not customary for friend to break into house. it tends to end badly.
mircea_popescu: yes, you live in a most strange of places :D where you aim to live it was quite customary.
asciilifeform: at any rate mircea_popescu is welcome to walk into my yurt and drink all the kumys he wants whenever.
mircea_popescu: why thank you.
mircea_popescu: but the point remains -- it very much matters whose principal thje agent is.
mircea_popescu: there's edges of this observable everywhere in nature. why make car insurance mandatory ? so that every idiot with a donut has a certain kind of principal behind him, so accidents can stay accidents and you can actually get your car fixed rather than "hurr durr i'm anon pothead, lolz".

asciilifeform: it was not the bizarre cocktail of mental illness exhibited in 'mondo'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i do all sorts of weird shit. there's iirc trilema telling the story of me calling chick out of the blue. "how did you get thsi number ?" "i had you followed".
asciilifeform: ( faith healers, esp, ufology, were on MAINSTREAM ru tv at the time. so a 'counterculture' mag ~had to~ avoid'em, see )
mircea_popescu: adding a "well, the detector pointed this way" answer to the repertoir wouldn't hurt jack.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform wouldn't you shit it if you were followed and didn't notice ?
asciilifeform: if i had a cunt, wouldn't

mircea_popescu: (she, memorably, went "ok, i'ma go out for coffee" "where ?" "just fucking follow me neh.")
asciilifeform: lol!
mircea_popescu: myeah.
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2009/eu-ma-joc/#selection-29.0-41.121 << story, found meanwhile.
phf: come to think of it, for non cyrillic readers, xakep is how you spell "hacker" in ru, written in this case with latin alphabet, because it just happens that the subset of cyrillic required to write the word "hacker" in ru is also latin
mircea_popescu: except x is not h.
mircea_popescu: csaker.
phf: yeah, scratch the second part, i confused myself
mircea_popescu: csaba the csaker could be a grandiose character, though.
phf: well, also p is not r
mircea_popescu: p is r, surely.
mircea_popescu: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/06/a5/d0/06a5d0c691cee2dd092acdc1b5d6f1ac.png << PRoof
phf: vaguely relatedly: if you drink unicode cool aid, shouldn't cyrillic latin subset like "a" be unified with the latin equivalent, along the lines of han unification? and then you introduce "linguist context surrogate" or whatever to actually give the glyph proper i18n aware shape? or perhaps that information should be contained purely in font, i.e. "russian" font has latin A rendered with russian typographic conventions. #makeunicodegreatagain
mircea_popescu: the reason they did not wish to do this is plain racism : they were afraid of me, and all the humour i was about to heap on them (the above x is not h but p is r very much apropos), and they understood (correctly) that no such scholarsip is available to yellow men.
phf: and have the other half unified with greek
mircea_popescu: (and since on it : prince csaba was the youngest son of atilla, king of the huns).
mircea_popescu: the only correct unicode, is, obviously, dated font tables. whereby i write in the year-specified letter a. and to read my modern story typeset in fraktur you have to set your computer clock to year 1199 or else the machine will refuse to print ("error! temproally-unavailable fonts detected!") much like gedit refuses to open files in gnome.
mircea_popescu: "the letter A as written in summer 2017 by MP" seems almost sufficient blather doesn't it.
mircea_popescu: (and VERY much what http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-03#1513931 is all about) ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2016-08-03 15:40 phf: the whole font changes meaning take two is coming from the japanese. they were actively promoting this idea back during early unicode standardization days, where there was a strong drive to include every idiosyncratic version of kanji in the standard, because "that's how my family writes it in our last name".
phf: but that's an alternative solution, since unicode claims taxonomy of symbols. "A" as written by mp in 2017 is not necessarily different from "A" written by mp during other times (but it might map to different A's within taxonomy, e.g. latin or cyrillic one). in case of japs they claim that the new symbol actually carries additional meaning
mircea_popescu: how does it not carry aditional meaning ?
mircea_popescu: for one thing, sometimes my a is /a/ and sometimes /ə/. and even some other times /ɨ/.
mircea_popescu: and this is not to count the various jokes, and puns, and that in turn is to not count all the cases where i'm fucking with the fucking with it deliberately.
phf: hmm
phf: well, i have to conveniently go afk at this point :)

user705: not at all. my original point was that the eating out of chicks is coming back into vogue so to speak because of the wide availability of porn where the mail talent is larger then average thus genpop of males is more conscious of making sure a female finishes ergo more eating out
