mod6: ah, right. all .ro. i used to just translate the stuff. however, it was mentioned in the logs, since im not sure what exactly is being lost in such translations.
mircea_popescu: i was reading the ro review and it came out "better rewrite than translate".
mod6: I wish I could learn a lang in six weeks.
mod6: I suppose for me, the trouble with my german and spanish is usage. i never get to use it, so I tend to lose it :<
mod6: I learned german first, and that took me about 6mos to a year when i was 11 or 12. then when i was ~18 i learned spanish in like... well pretty quick, 2-3 mos. its easy.
mod6: but again, i never get to use it.
mod6: verb conjugation is easy
mod6: german felt like it was way harder.
mircea_popescu: anyway, portuguese and spanish are the lulziest in this vein. at some party i chatted with this girl for a little, and eventually i asked her why does she have such a thick accent ? "because i'm speaking portuguese".
mod6: yeah, they are pretty close huh
mircea_popescu: i was buzzed enough to not have noticed, but i was talking spanish at her and she was talking portuguese back at me
mod6: immersion is definately a good way to learn

mircea_popescu: mod6 the idea being that the russian grammar is so descriptive, an vocabulary isn't really needed. you can express yourself on the strength of grammatical structure and arbitrarily chosen verb + noun.

mod6: dicker dick, why dick with it? dick.
mircea_popescu: i think "dick" makes, phonetically, a better huy than cock or anything else. has a nice ring to it.

phf: dick dick dick dick dick dick dick - how many dicks was that? - alot

BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Hill's in pantsuit propaganda flicks, aka post humor stoner comedies

mod6: Wizards of Waverly Place or some shit
mod6: Anyway /me likes redheads :]
mircea_popescu: whisper in my ear clarifies i was thinking of one emma watson.
phf: i saw him in the horrible wolf of wall street and then later in war dogs. both are millennial updates of greater movies, later one being a take on "lord of war". he basically plays the same character, young annoying and smug jew who gets what he wants on chutzpah, until he doesn't.
mod6: ahh, emma watson ya. from the wizard thing, gotcha.
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, the libertards are exactly so described. they dare do the whole trilema rewrite thing, except their results aren't "the original improved, because closer to mp". their results are "the original, destroyed".

mircea_popescu: right. but i wouldn't say this qualifies as any sort of check.
mircea_popescu: but yes, prb is an amateurish attempt at a non-compliant bitcoin node.
mircea_popescu: with all sorts of silly/quirky/potentially dangerous misbehaviours, neither defined nor ennumerated, yet irresponsibly baked in. because monkeys loive to code, can't read code.
mircea_popescu: "there exists no standard plumbing in anthill". well... um...
mircea_popescu: so then 50 for a hash, say 100 for a cipher. seems fair to me.

mod6: they told us at the time, "Hey, you can be an extra in the movie if you want... it doesn't pay anything, just have to stand there for 12 hours a day..." Fuck that, we were too busy playing grab-ass with the figure-skaters.
a111: Logged on 2017-08-01 17:36 mircea_popescu: danielpbarron you wanna put it on teh market ?
danielpbarron: i must admit, working with the pogo makes me feel quite stupid. brings back that fear I used to get when working on normal computers "oh no will it no longer boot? i'm screwed!"
danielpbarron: is that for getting into it in the first place so that something more permanent can be installed?
shinohai: Well almost *6* hours later the tards finally manage to mine a block.
BingoBoingo: <mod6> they told us at the time, "Hey, you can be an extra in the movie if you want... it doesn't pay anything, just have to stand there for 12 hours a day..." Fuck that, we were too busy playing grab-ass with the figure-skaters. << What you have to do is speak during a take that is too good to exclude, get your SAG card.

mircea_popescu: mod6 there are worse asses to grab than figure skater's.
mod6: oh for sure. figure skaters often has nice asses. we like.
f1maze: do I have to verify with deedbot everytime I connect?
f1maze: Is it that often? I connect/disconnect when arriving and leaving work, and when I get home
f1maze: I dont know what that is
shinohai: Google for `znc` or `weechat` f1maze .... you're welcome
trinque: curious what f1maze thinks would be the alternative to deedbot auth each time
a111: Logged on 2017-08-01 18:32 mircea_popescu: trinque lulz of all time btw : the whole article was actually inspired by yest dmt discussion. (hence machine elves reference, which is in the field a term of art)
BingoBoingo: Just remember kids, a lawnmower is simply an underpowered helicopter flipped over
f1maze: BingoBoingo: I added nitrous to my lawnmower to make it a hovercraft
shinohai: Prolly ddosin' themselves, what with the 1 hour+ blocktimes this shit has
deedbot: pa1atine voiced for 30 minutes.
pa1atine: i think i got around at generating my key
pa1atine: anybody so kind to give me further pointers?
pa1atine: well, how to register it with deedbot
mircea_popescu: what was the usg gdp/usd backed by, again ? "creativity" was it ?
deedbot: AAC0378219053AFD79AFA4D8861DF5C40C813682 is already registered as pa1atine.
mircea_popescu: " Could anyone really believe the earth was going to swallow up the incredible productive assets and unlimited human ingenuity existing in America?", to quote.
shinohai: So now pa1atine you already have key registered, you just need to /msg deedbot !!up (assuming someone has rated you)
deedbot: L1: 0, L2: 0 by 0 connections.
pa1atine: i did it this morning, but it didn't seem to work out at the time
shinohai: Lettuce hope you retained your private key

deedbot: mircea_popescu rated pa1atine 1 << Italian lawyer guy, apparently.
shinohai: Ardilla, lol ... when I was in CA I got thrown back by *iguana tacos*
shinohai: Has mircea_popescu tried this delicacy?
mircea_popescu: i only ever saw it in either teh bidonvilles or the very dubious cheapo vendors, and it never appealed.
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, here's the top employers for pierce country (wa) : jblm, 66k ; public schools, 13.5k ; obamacare etc 7k ; the state of washington 6.5k, the franciscan health system (about as franciscan as the ny jewish stuff) : 5.5k ; the county of pierce : 3k ; the state-owned universities : 2.5k ; fred meyer stores : 2.5k.
mircea_popescu: !~calc 2.5/(66 + 13.5 + 7 + 6.5 + 5.5 + 3 + 2.5 + 2.5)
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: 2.5/(66 + 13.5 + 7 + 6.5 + 5.5 + 3 + 2.5 + 2.5) = 0.023474178403755867
mircea_popescu: 2.3% "private", for a definition of "private" that essentially reduces to walmart. if it were properly private fred meyer would just be the stamp on the local scrip.
mircea_popescu: ~~~PUTIN~~~ is hit by a recession because of his inept policies ; and ~~~PUTIN~~~ is trying to hide the crisis. and so on and so forth.
ben_vulpes: what fraction of folks work for operations not on the biggest list?
mircea_popescu: they're all in the tide dollar trade i'd expect, who the fuck would work for bezzlar if not on the biggest list
ben_vulpes: "but mp, half of people work for small companies!!1"
mircea_popescu: anyway, tacoma pop is 195k if that helps, of which 45k famblies.
mircea_popescu: i thought the whole fucking sounds region was like 1mn
f1maze: needs peer review I'd imagine^^
ben_vulpes: f1maze: is this steemit thing plagiarizing the logs or what
mircea_popescu: i suspect steemit is a sort of how did they call that alt-disqus/alt-github "let us steal your content" thing ?
☟︎ f1maze: He does cite some logs
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: not that i dispute that boeing, ms, and ~everything in that neighborhood are no more than imperial outposts
mircea_popescu: if boeing is private, then i have no fucking idea what "state owned" would mean. they do pay their debts every ~15 years or so neh
mircea_popescu: sort-of like the "independent, career-oriented business woman" with a string of "serial entrepeneurship" consisting of hair salons her bf at the time bought for her.
ben_vulpes: remainder sliver is ad tech and masters degree holders pouring cocktails
mircea_popescu: (i've met a bunch of these btw, insane and incomprehensible as the item may appear in theory)
