http://archive.is/ePSpE >> "Candidatos que tienen estancia, pero que rogaban que los acomodara en la OSE y allí trabajan. Yo no tengo trabajo fijo, son traidores"
BingoBoingo: "El dirigente floridense se mostró muy desmotivado por el resultado electoral. Se quejó de que sus adversarios políticos le bajaban los carteles en la vía pública, entre otros hechos que lo perjudicaron."
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, so, nobody gives a shit about empire ? kinda self-obvious result, neh.
mp_en_viaje: hey phf, since i'll be in minsk for a while, how inconvenient is it to hop in a plane, come have a beefsteak or something ?
mp_en_viaje: BingoBoingo, the lulziest part comes at the end.
mp_en_viaje: so : 1. "Juan Sartori, hasta el domingo 30 precandidato por el Partido Nacional y propietario del portal Ecos, decidió que ese medio abandonará el periodismo y pasará a formar parte de su aparato de propaganda, y así se lo comunicó este martes a los periodistas que lo integran."
mp_en_viaje: this 1 meaning, that "the workers", in a very lofty plural, NOT ACTUALLY WORKING for a thing NOT ACTUALLY MAKING ANY MONEY by very far (which'd be the MEASURE of working), found out that yes, the necessary correlate of not working is not being free.
mp_en_viaje: shock and awe, a bunch of idle cuntlets went to new york to "be journalists" aka "do whatever the fuck i please all day as if i were mp" only to discover mp is mp because mp, not because new york, and cowpoke girl from indiana doesn't get away from HAVING TO suck cock just because got away from indiana.
mp_en_viaje: but moving on : 2 . "El mensaje lo transmitió uno de sus asesores, ; además que los periodistas que no estuvieran de acuerdo, tenían que presentar la renuncia y que no les correspondía el despido"
mp_en_viaje: this even way the fuck loftier 2 meaning, that "the message was transmitted by ~ONE OF THE~ hounds" of this sartori comedian. because he's so lofty and important and practically speaking a nation in himself, he can't even fucking talk, like trump. he has a humongous (you better believe) horde of vechili & other nigger handles at his beck and call. he's just that fuckign cool, what.
mp_en_viaje: and the ~content~ of that grandiosely transmitted message, with such grandeur as we have discussed let it not be forgotten, was that the pretense to independence requires the acts of independence!!! the precious cuntlets can't place the burden of their own independence on others not even when it comes to "who calls who"! THEY have to call, if they want to be "human persons, just like men are".
mp_en_viaje: n-73.1-79.1][the natural obligation]) and i'll pay men to guard them lest anyone does the deed, and cashes the check they're writing.
mp_en_viaje: that the femstate, i say, DOES NOT EXIST, and DOES NOT MATTER. hurr. duh. omgwtfbbq, and they thought they were "periodistas", ie, cyclerers. which is somehow different from historical womanhood, they're the special cuntlets of 2019, so, so very unlikely every other generation of "grin and bear it"... empirebuilders, let's say.
mp_en_viaje: as you can see, lofty topics, aerated pretense, serious fucking problems. a clash of civilisation altogether, the hopes and dreams of hu-midity revolting against the hu-manity and its constraints! oh-wee!
mp_en_viaje: except, of course, then we come to the actual punchline. 3 : "El equipo periodístico, integrado por una editora, un subeditor y cuatro periodistas"
mp_en_viaje: a four-nigger farm! the whole fucking discussion is about this married couple and their four niggers! they work together ten acres of shitty land, half corn, half cotton. THESE are the lofty concerns. this is what "the state" is supposed to exist atop and deal with ?
mp_en_viaje: then these completely inconsequential morons come to the republic and pretend to act as if the roles are completely reversed! as if they're some kinda big deal, as if the republic were anything other than their eternal lord and master.
bvt: hello. i have also prepared a work schedule document; however internet at my workplace died this week, will post the plan as soon as the internet goes back up; the plan for next two weeks is to get to ffa14b, update asm code to it; after that, i will have a look at some other work.
bvt: well, i still have access to irc/inet at saltmine; and working offline is also possible, so i don't waste time in meantime.
mp_en_viaje: ah, i'm sure you don't. just... i am starting to suspect "internet problems" will become the fish store joke of our generation.
mp_en_viaje: the internet may become more alike a dream than a lived reality.
☟︎ diana_coman: well, it'll "work" up to local isp that serves the lolcats required and nobody will even notice
mp_en_viaje: god knows nobody notices ~anything even now ; and who the fuck noticed jack shit in 1980 ; or for that matter...
bvt: i see, when the last person who was there when the isp was set up retires... ; the internet situation in germany is outrageous -- dsl everywhere, highest prices for shittiest quality, providers (2 or 3 that are still there) making sure that no fiber gets to the customers, etc (iirc they invested heavily in copper 'cause "isdn is the future!" in 90ties).
mp_en_viaje: !Qlater tell hanbot "Dr. Nut was a soft drink produced by New Orleans-based World Bottling Company. It was introduced in the 1930s and was produced until the late 1970s."
lobbesbot: mp_en_viaje: The operation succeeded.
mp_en_viaje: bvt, you'll end up moving to romania, where they have fiber to the door (unlike the us, say). but the problem is... IT TAKES THEM THREE WEEKS!!!! to get a new connection in
☟︎ mp_en_viaje: ie, there's no real solution to the problems of women in the workforce. even antique (ie, very good, leftover) infrastructure is not enough by itself.
mp_en_viaje: in other lulz : fast food across the way adverises this comical mascot, "kroshka kartoshka"
mp_en_viaje: i'm almost considering going, which'd be like the first time mustachioed advertising manages to call to action

mp_en_viaje: not so far ; moreover, it's not even the 60mbps thing. it's the 3ms pings.
mp_en_viaje: incidentally, does anyone recall the (i suspect antique) trilema piece where various things (such as, insane us medical """costs"'") were explained in terms of "whenever one party pays and another party benefits you get chaos" ?
mp_en_viaje: in what's becoming a god damned tradition, i can't fucking find it.

BingoBoingo: Thought you'd enjoy that lul. Huge fuss over six bodies receiving messages from on high by guy who really wanted to be president of a people he can't bring himself to talk to.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, nah, it was detailed, and much earlier. i suspect 2012
mp_en_viaje: sadly. makes any search that more dubious.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, nowhere i know of ; not in africa, nowhere. oslo only feature, nordic system.
BingoBoingo: Nordic system: hardscarbble derps derping along to soften hard environment imagine the tourists want their accomodations to mimic Nordic austerity hell as well
mp_en_viaje: how they live with the shame is anyone's guess ; but the norwegians have plenty to be ashamed for.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, i dun even want the dough ; i want that thing ended.
BingoBoingo: And small claims rarely kills, except when it does
mp_en_viaje: item belongs as a museum of european stupidity.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: the police report and all of the claims appear to be in order. Gotta beat the fucks and put fear into the scammers that didn't have the fortune of crossing MP.
BingoBoingo: "Wow this scamming the tourists business got awfully dangerous all of a sudden, lets go back to scamming the downtrodden"
BingoBoingo: Because Norway isn't a county. It is just a shithole.
mp_en_viaje: in other local flavour : a) never in life seen so many drunks ambling about, not even in ro 90s, not in moscow 90s, never. this place is something else. b) never before seen radical feminist hairdo that works well! they have them here, just complimented girl on her peculiar shaved sides with thick braid on top of head. cute as fuck.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, possibly by nobody complaining.
BingoBoingo: Well if you get enough puppies, they'll eventualy get tired and cuddle up for protection. This doesn't actually offer any actual protection against "the bad" no one locally wants to be.
BingoBoingo: It just means if no one complains because there are no tourists, no one rocks the boat. Lest they become the sad puppy in Nordic system.
mp_en_viaje: c) these people are genuinely fucking nice to a degree not seen since costa rica. they're not usually very efectual, for systematic reasons beyond their control, but holy shit they WANNA help.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, according to multiple sources, not nearly as used to be.
mp_en_viaje: mostly other-nordic kids, who apparently are just as fucked in the head, but stuck with a more functional country against their will.
mp_en_viaje: needless to say the experience cut stockholm off map ; and possibly copenhagen also.
mp_en_viaje: pliable in what sense ? all i perceived was neurosis.
mp_en_viaje: poland, pliable. minsk so fucking pliable they come talk to you. norway ridoinculous.
mp_en_viaje: in other sads, went through all ro articles searching for reasonable terms, could not find item. im pretty sure it was english, early english. oy vey.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, my theory is, tbh, mental heath.
mp_en_viaje: girl aged <30 that manages to go through entire week without approaching ~at least~ few males and then does not leave the fucking place, is on that basis alone broken in the head to clinically relevant levesl.
mp_en_viaje: very much like a pizarro that manages to go through week without approaching any customers.
mp_en_viaje: it's not like that cunt's gonna fill itself.
mp_en_viaje: nor is this peculiar burden on girl. i don't stick around in idiotlands either, once it's discovered it's also abandoned.
mp_en_viaje: if she genuinely sees NO ONE to talk to, what the fuck is she thinking being there.
mp_en_viaje: after 30, w/e, "gotta take care of dependents" what have you. but a young woman with wallflower syndrome's not healthy.
mp_en_viaje: anyway, re sticks : no sticks necessary, even vaguely. sane people do the look and nod thing, like argentine tango used to work (century ago, when they still had it).
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, yes, iirc i was held to pay for a piece of hardware to replace extant ? or was it two ?
mp_en_viaje surveys his (no doubt painstakingly reconstructed) "southern homes and gardens 1980 edition" interior, chuckles at himself.
mp_en_viaje: belarus has such a vhs america hardon like YOU COULD NOT BELIEVE
mp_en_viaje: i expect you could get yourself free drinks for rest of life in any bar of your choice here, on the strength of "i used to live in wash dc" stories.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform absolutely gotta try minsk asap. evne their industrial foodstuffs are not that bad, they somehow manage to buy the machines without the evil pastes, put genuine ingredients in.
a111: Logged on 2017-08-24 17:24 asciilifeform: e.g. film 'diehard' ended up translated by one 'genius' to title 'умри тяжело'
mp_en_viaje: i guess increasing salaries worst thing for the people.
mp_en_viaje: they still make the god's given 3-400/month here, place is beautiful.
mp_en_viaje: lol, watching girlparty returning ladden in groceries tryina open the door on teh security webcam thingee. will amusements never cease!
mp_en_viaje: cuz everyone's a lawyer and lotta printolade.
mp_en_viaje: very much a turkey dollar problem. everyone's rich in jam tomorrow, jam today on ration card.
mp_en_viaje: what's wrong with just giving her three bucks ?
BingoBoingo: The biggest danger here with lines is when the tills run out of change. The very sad mass people movers will even have signs begging folks to buy their tickets with the 2 peso coin
BingoBoingo: Back in old country at such events there was always a certain caste of old women attending to or supervising such concessions for their ability to make change or round the damn prices.
BingoBoingo: With that 2017 eclipse, I though a lot of people learned ccd's can overheat
mp_en_viaje: finally getting off your own vhs america hardon ?
mp_en_viaje: prolly being financed by usg.blue as "useful subversives".
mp_en_viaje: pretty lulzy alt-world menagerie the usg is building for itself.
mp_en_viaje: whatever, if all the morons that actually want to live in the us gather in washington to populate usg zoos, the world will be better,
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, as near as i can tell plan was never to "use" in any meaningful sense, certainly not anything beyond "these are '''winners'''' of
tournament market, aspire, aspire, aspire!"

mp_en_viaje: in other news, i spent the weirdest friday night out in memory
mp_en_viaje: ate (very nice food, "friendship" pectopan in friendship park, a++ beerhouse, great soup great snitzel etc) ; then went for the "moulin rouge", top best cathouse-cunnyshack. driver takes us to a... well... i dunno, construction yard ? narrow dark alley betwen a concrete wall and some metal panes delimiting an earthy ditch.
mp_en_viaje: so we opt out, go for 2nd best. it is a... well i dunno, basically looked like a bus stop in the distance.
mp_en_viaje: the casinos, those are monumental and marquee up in lights the side of the building. but apparently whorehouses occur in someone's garage.
mp_en_viaje: by their websites you'd think they rebuilt glory days las vegas ; but when you get there it looks more like some over-excited 11th graders got a hold of a dad's computer.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, except mp_en_viaje came by car, left by car the next minute. gotta make mp get out of car yes ?
mp_en_viaje: unless they make their dough at the gas station, i guess.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, because whoring is not an industry ? the girls don't make axles in there, you realise, it's not cnc milling
mp_en_viaje: would have ~gone in~ if saw gate worth going through. stayed, not necessarily.
mp_en_viaje: i would not ditch a, say, electronic parts dealer because his office is in abandoned mall by decrepit diner 20 miles off highway.
mp_en_viaje: i WILL however ditch "luxury boutique hotel" across the way from construction yard.
mp_en_viaje: some things sell the steak, some things sell the sizzle. hotels, bars, whorehouses, etc -- these sell the sizzle, there's no steak there.
mp_en_viaje: as someone having run such, i know what to look for.
mp_en_viaje: not even sport, not like i fucked anyone. was for blogging, you know, to draw a map gotta draw the limits. just like math analysis, go for the remarkable points of inflection etc.
mp_en_viaje: did not particularly feel like slumming it tonite.
mp_en_viaje: amusing rotard hanger-on was just complaining about it, as it happens, "because he has detected my hypocrisy", or however it works in their brains
mp_en_viaje: (there's different place where i explain that romanian "business owner" ie rotto in culo making 5k/year hussing the street has no business owning car. THEREFORE I CONTRADICT SELF!!!
mp_en_viaje: cuz yeah, totally, yurp and america, similar road / mass transit networks.
mp_en_viaje: in other lulz : most slavorc towns have metro systems consisting of a big X on the map
mp_en_viaje: i'm not even persuaded it's a bad idea. if you only have dough for that track length, making a cross possibly optimal load. and if not constrained by historical idiocy, like budapest with its 1898 lines look like they were dug by moles, might as well just make a proper grid, #
mp_en_viaje: i'd just make a grid, every mile a line each way.
☟︎ mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, obviously lines on diff levels, duh!
mp_en_viaje: nowere do the lines ACTUALLY cross. warsaw blue line is under red line. minsk red under blue. etc. you wanna interconnect, get off use escalator.
mp_en_viaje: i dunno i ever noticed line switching. that's... kinda dumb neh ?
mp_en_viaje: but i mean they just loop, neh ? doesn't actually switch at end of line, just loops around
mp_en_viaje: and it's a straight line with switchings ? like in 1850 ?
mp_en_viaje: i thought that;'s so fucking nutty, i even photographed it in budapest
mp_en_viaje: i thought "holy shit, this is the most antique insane thing leftover"
mp_en_viaje: i dunno tbh how i got this idea in my head.
mp_en_viaje: possibly by looking at chinese plans for future development too much
