mircea_popescu: wasn't he here last year with the "media company" with no dns resolvers ?
mircea_popescu: went by "rabite" back then (if memory serves, before discovering "white supremacist" via usg's free housing services)
mircea_popescu: i don't know that there ever was a "conviction" that stood other than by sheer disinterest of the convicted.
mircea_popescu: otherwise, much as the conviction rate is 100%, the reversal rate is also 100%.
mircea_popescu: to quote the prophets, "Fortunately, your chances of being awarded SSI are 100%. ("Not for me!" Again, it's not for you.) You may be awarded it on the first try; you may be denied and then get it on appeal; you may need an SSI hearing before the judge; or you may apply five or six times and finally get it after ten years. But if you are persistent, you will get it."
mircea_popescu: also ""You"= your doc who fills out a packet with specific questions; and maybe a lawyer who processes the massive amounts of other paperwork, and argues your case, and charges about 20% of a year's award.
mircea_popescu: "show" has a very specific legal definition: whatever the judge feels like that day. I have been involved in thousands of these SSI cases, and to describe the system as arbitrary is to describe Blake Lively as "fair.""
mircea_popescu: that was 2003 or so. in the intervening 15 years the principle expanded out of the empire of inner city mammies / "social workers".
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you ever heard of liver tissue eating out tumour ?
mircea_popescu: cuz of course pseudo-rational process of fat female niggers stomped out rational process of traditional law, rather than the other way around,
mircea_popescu: and thus therefore of fucking course the manner in which tlp described welfare courts working in 2003 is how general court works in 2019
mircea_popescu: over timeline, liver becomes more like tumour, not vice-versa.
mircea_popescu: heck, most of bush's "never-releasable" kidnap victims were meanwhile released.
mircea_popescu: the case where "forever-and-ever" promise beneficiary actually brings action against the promiser, "they;'re supposed to feed and clothe me, porca vaca" isn't far off.

mircea_popescu: if you construct a "regime" out of the thin veneer of pop-socialism, myopic as all get-out and with all the intellectual prowess of earthworms, what the fuck do you expect permanence.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in other great accomplishments of the scots, "the highland schottische is a partnered country dance that apparently originated in Bohemia."

Mocky: BingoBoingo can you set me up with mp-wp in my wwwhabeeb directory on uy1 for mockyhabeeb.com? I want to see what migrating my blog will involve.
BingoBoingo: In other news one of several competing "Presidents" of Venezuela (Think Iraq's Chalabi) is going to be holding a rally across from the Tres Cruses Shopping and National Bus Terminal here in Uruguay
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Thinking on it, but unlike yesterday, there's a growing pile of material to be Qntra'd today.
BingoBoingo has seen other less acute USG.BLUE productions here
mircea_popescu: MRExtreme 52M Dom "Hi LordMP, I will be travelling to Costa Rica with my slave. Do you have any (kinky) tips ? Have a nice day MRExtreme" LordMPofTMSR "You can start with the customary six months of log reading ; other than that specific channel I have nothing to say to uppity plebs."
BingoBoingo: But I'll get the updates. Dude's apparently not even setting his pulpit up in the Pope's designated spot in Tres Cruces
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in lulz : trilema gets referral spam from "esif22.zcodesys.hop.clickbank.net" ; the unpacking is :
https://zcodesystem.com/affiliates.html (some "betting" scam) is being pushed via clickbank (principal affiliate clearhinghouse) by some guy whose code is esif22. the idea is that if (naive) webmaster clicks (or publishes his referrer list for others to click) the clickbank item will count a click "sent by" this esif22
mircea_popescu: so the dood's businessplan is, 1. get a list of websites ; 2. while $list do curl -e "esif22.zcodesys.hop.clickbank.net"; done.
mircea_popescu: first fucking thing on the scam's landing page being "* Note: The base commission is set to 50% to reduce affiliate fraud from newbie affiliates. After 90 days and 10 sales you can request to be moved to 60% commission tier."

mircea_popescu: "hey, nancy pelosi, io for or against israel ?" "ummm... it's complicated"
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo " their right of self defense by according to the "
hanbot: ^ smells better already
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nah, some bum/dockworker "being a blogger" back in ye olde days before trilema.
mircea_popescu: memorable because he came to trilema conference before #trilema/tmsr/bitcoin even, and impressed the girls with his "manly" odours.
lobbesbot: BingoBoingo: The operation succeeded.
Mocky: BingoBoingo: got it, thx
BingoBoingo: Mocky: Let me know you you have any questions or would like any assistance
mircea_popescu: just, you know, illiterate simpletons in no sense romanian, because you can't be romanian without ready access to cultural reference, the entire nation exists of naught else.
BingoBoingo: In clarifications, the Tres Cruces rally is to support other president, other Vzla president is in Caracas doing color revolution
BingoBoingo: I'm seeing photos of freeways full of people in Caracas, but it is hard to tell how many kilos of dry noodles they are getting for showing up
BingoBoingo: Either way, those noodles came from somewhere
mircea_popescu: "TOR is a software that with a utter enormous vivid concealed allows you to latibulize from prying eyes the exemplary shooting go together you do and did on the Internet." ?!
BingoBoingo: I promise, all I did was kill the links. Yes its spam, but lulzy.
mircea_popescu: i can see that word making a republican career. "buncha latibulizers!!!"
BingoBoingo: Anyways, the recent history of Vzla is informative with respect to the US's future, competing with Argentina. As recently as the 1990's Vzla was a rich Germany. Chavez cut it down into a starving Ukraine. Maduro heard the people asking for more socialism and is giving them exactly what they want. Now USG is set to make a Somalia.
BingoBoingo: Anyways middle class housing in uruguay means maybe a garage. In Vzla middle class housing means a six car garage. The country gets poorer, but can't eat garage.
BingoBoingo: 80s-90s Vzla had the money to build what they saw n the VHS tapes
mircea_popescu: this is their exact future, decade or two down the road, now that they've blown their chance.
mircea_popescu: like so : impudent while it flows and confused when it stops.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Surprisingly quickly. Not all Petro is equal as Vzla shows
BingoBoingo: Every petrol has a skillset it needs to be brought to market.
BingoBoingo: Chavez and Canadian oil sands took Vzla's skill reservoir
BingoBoingo: But, now Canada loses money on the oil sand anyway
BingoBoingo: Anyways, CNN is hearing "Sí, se puede" in chants and translating it to "Yes we can". I am hearing "Si se puede" more of an "if he can..."
mircea_popescu: right, si is ambiguously yes and if, therefore "if it's permissible" is perfectly valid translation.
BingoBoingo: Seriously, conjugation! Sí nos podemos, no fucking WE in that chant
a111: Logged on 2018-01-09 17:18 mircea_popescu: but what do i know, i dun have fifty +1/+1 green beret cultural experts on the ground to write me briefs.
BingoBoingo going to be digging anyways because the CNN "yes we can"-ism is begging for a blog post
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo honestly i'd expect the least ambiguous rendering of "yes we can" would be "si que podemos!"
mircea_popescu: no explicit we either, but at least puts all the accents in the intended places, it's just how you communicate the notion in spanish.
BingoBoingo: TBF, when Obama got stood up in the "Yes, we can" meme in English, I doubt anyone meant "yes we can" to actually that instead of "Yes he can", but English has been broken for a while
a111: Logged on 2014-07-19 03:16 mircea_popescu: so, this poor unfortunate soul found herself living her parent's dream : an assistant professor! at the prestigious ubb no less!
mircea_popescu: that poor guy, incidentally. first they told him he can be university professor! and he believed. and, unending misery, can barely read, yet has to "teach" constitutional law.
mircea_popescu: stupidity characteristically doesn't learn from others' personal history -- but if there ever was an example of why the bootblack ~does NOT~ want to raise above his crepidam...
BingoBoingo: Is that Chimichurri Raptorson in the Trilema header today?
Mocky: being chucked into the air?
BingoBoingo: Looks more like learning to fly by being made to fly.
hanbot: duck chucking's a pleasant pastime, and does seem to encourage interest in flight!

BingoBoingo: Anyways, US-Vzla diplomatic relations have been cut. USG.BLUE has 72 hours to get out.
BingoBoingo still waiting to see about that aircraft carrier
BingoBoingo has been explaining to people wishing for "humanitarian intervention" that they need to be very careful what they wish for
trinque: these people never heard of iraq?
