mircea_popescu: we prolly all ended up on it because someone or other did a harvesting run of ba stuff
BingoBoingo finally filed his annual IRS papers this week. Another 0 tax year.
☟︎ ascii_lander: the lulzy part is that the addr where i get these isn't even the one in my wot key
assbot: Logged on 21-04-2015 19:24:03; mircea_popescu: but you can't make "woman flour", so just fuck up everyone.
ascii_lander: (e.g., folks eating wrong-handed foods to diet and shitting selves as per 'olestra' , etc)
ascii_lander: (no one owns anything, not even own pathetic carcass)
BingoBoingo: I honestly could see the Tractor Pull lobby and John Deere coming to blows over this
BingoBoingo: Things change when dealing with people who throw additional motors on a chassis more enthusiastically than AMD throws more core on a die
BingoBoingo: Tractor Pull is a phenomenon like Hamas that attracts an strong overlap of people with engineering talent and a love of firearms.
ascii_lander: BingoBoingo: esp. the type that matters, the robotic/self-driving one
ascii_lander: hence the importance, to the buggers, of nailing down 'no, you don't get to examine or change the fw'
ascii_lander: BingoBoingo: two worlds. one that is palpable with unarmed eye, and the one that matters.
BingoBoingo: It's interesting the ways that sports men and women weaponize these things that evade the inspectors and referees until the machines break
ascii_lander: mod6, ben_vulpes, mike_c: note to usaschwitz inmates: 10x the usual frequency of scam callz to my u.s. phone, during voyage. somewhere there is a db of folks who went off the reservation. don't be surprised if phones in your social graph were similarly targeted.
BingoBoingo: hopper full of telephone pole segments was my favorite. I have no idea what serious advantafe they were aiming for there
ascii_lander: betcha somebody got the traditional 'ransom scam' for instance.
☟︎ ascii_lander: point being, that not only do things widely known to leak - leak, but also other things
mircea_popescu: lol john deere selling "licenses to operate" tractors now ?
ascii_lander: and one ought not to expect to hear any 'official' discussion thereof.
ascii_lander: mircea_popescu: in precisely the same way as crapple sells license to operate iPnohe, toyota - to operate toyota, etc. and the rest of the firmwarederpological world
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: ECU firmware license with purchase of tractor apparently
ascii_lander: started -at least- with ibm selling permission to use that 31st cpu etc

ascii_lander: might as well go straight to 'epidemiological hazard, nominated for glassing'
ascii_lander just noticed the steady drip of derpcomments on trilema re: the fetlife thing
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu that commenter sounds pretty... simple.
ascii_lander: 'Or any recommendations in general for someone who is quite tech savvy, but whose programming skills and experience don't go beyond writing some basic scripts.' << what does 'tech savvy' mean?
ascii_lander: (cnc is a fairly legit variant of what we understand as 'programming')
☟︎ pete_dushenski: and he can sync it to itunes. his grandma cannot do this.
mircea_popescu: ascii_lander yes but like jourdain speaking in prose, he might not realise that's what it is.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu so how did the first conference in bsas stack up with the romanian editions ?
BingoBoingo: ascii_lander seems to be lingering longer this time
mircea_popescu: so is the consensus that one can't be tech savvy without being a programmer ?
ascii_lander: mircea_popescu: idk but i still remember when that -meant- - if meant anything - that one could program
BingoBoingo: One probably at least needs be know of programming.
mircea_popescu: i used to read diskedit printouts looking for Stoned B as a kid, i CAN do it.
pete_dushenski: i can see it. savvy basically meaning that you can make the machine do what you want
ascii_lander: BingoBoingo: re: earlier thread: you would, i think, like this place.

ascii_lander: i'm convinced that if most u.s. folks knew what kind of jail they live in, they would go full bore apeshit.
BingoBoingo: When I make it out I'd like to avoid that part. Probably not stay in hardware B-A too long first visit, but definitely temped to spend decade+ outsid of Illinois.
mircea_popescu: and if earthworms knew what their fate is they'd miss being the emperors of china, and the throne.
BingoBoingo: Maybe earthworms are wired to like living in the shit?

mircea_popescu: "She got the dogs safely out of the house, just as multiple armed agents rushed inside. Some even barged into the bathroom, where her partner was in the shower."
pete_dushenski: they probably enjoyed the entertainment before busting in
mircea_popescu: put up signs "groups of police not allowed on this property. come alone or get shot."
BingoBoingo: Wisconsin was too polite, It's almost pete_dushenski land
mircea_popescu: and then start shooting at any groups of cops larger than one.
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo apparently the border is increasingly blurry
pete_dushenski: now us border guards can patrol canadian rail stations and airports and if they kill someone, be subject only to us law
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Wisconsin has culturally been the land of you fuckers forever. The new stuff is all things that should concern you
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Wisconsin's basically been Canadian since... the 1920's
BingoBoingo: As soon as there were enough people there to commune with yall
ascii_lander: '… next came ominous warnings. Don’t call your lawyer. Don’t tell anyone about this raid. Not even your mother, your father, or your closest friends.' << l0l
mircea_popescu: ascii_lander meanwhile i'm like, "yeah totally, go read trilema tomorrow."
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo well then wisconsin has been part of canada longer than (half) my family!
pete_dushenski: is wisconsin cheese actually decent? not sure i've tried any
ascii_lander: 'And she realized, “Every aspect of my life is in their hands. And they hate me.”'
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Yeah, but it's also an avenue for contagion. US badgov goes to Canada through Green Bay
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski it's actually not bad. well,m the better stuff anyway
ascii_lander: the only answer is something like total cultural dismantlement (see carthage) and the proverbial 1000 years of colonial ball-crusher.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu i'd have to figure that everywhere has at least some variant of edible, even enjoyable cheese.
ascii_lander: 400.gif << somebody isn't eager to take in the american cheese emitter
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu btw i didn't fully grok your comment on my infanticide article. sarcasm or no ?
pete_dushenski: not sure that being in favour of baby killin' makes one more or less attractive to opposite sex, but would guess the latter
BingoBoingo: California cheese pretty shitty, dunno why they are burning so much water on that and Alfalfa
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski i don't think any woman is going to score the male propensity to infanticide positively.
pete_dushenski: females want their children to survive, males want their children to perform
mircea_popescu: females strongly wish the offspring to survive. males weakly wish the offspring to perish.
mircea_popescu: the sun wants particles strongly energized, thermodynamics wants particles weakly de-energized.
mircea_popescu: as a result, coriolis storms, rainbows, deep throating and daisies.
pete_dushenski: deep throating being when the father doesn't wish his offspring to perish strongly enough ? or too strongly ?
mircea_popescu: unrelated. it's a false bridge between the two example cases.
mircea_popescu: point being, the strong push weak pull device drives all performance, but performance is a byproduct.
mircea_popescu: if it doesn't make sense to women, it doesn't make sense to men, either. whether they're poorly equipped to figure it out or not, notwithstanding.
pete_dushenski: how so ? are there not differing perspectives ? differing inclinations between the sexes ?
BingoBoingo: Anything younger than 10 is probably too early to cull anyways
ascii_lander: cheapest infanticide is simpy: not making'em in the first place
BingoBoingo: At least for cases not obviously cullable in womb
mircea_popescu: ascii_lander notrly how this works. cheapest computer is not "no computer". that's cheapest noncomputer.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu towards the value of a child, particularly if handicapped
ascii_lander: mircea_popescu: whatchatalkingabout, works great. just like the 'noncomputers' running my knives, forks, shoes work great.
ascii_lander: how do you even comment on the 'value' of something which pretty much no one has anything like a reasonable reason to want.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu i guess i'm still wondering why the 'making sense' equation has women leading and men following
ascii_lander: what is the 'value' of being dragged behind a truck until nothing remains on the rope but a small flap of skin ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, this "natural" thing... shitting in the bed is also natural. something being natural offers little ethical indication.
assbot: Michele Leonhart resigns: DEA head steps down after prostitution scandal, disagreement over marijuana. ... (

assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 9550 @ 0.00032437 = 3.0977 BTC [-]
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu that's general enough that i can't argue with that
mircea_popescu: and kids are drastically distinguishable from animals, at any age.
mircea_popescu: monkeys do not, either. they eventually learn to, but if you watch it specifically, the difference is striking.
BingoBoingo: With a life expectancy of 2 years hard to call any racoons adults
BingoBoingo: I have seem a great many short flat citronella candle in tin leave the bounds of the picnic table in the backyard due to those masked bandits
mircea_popescu: anyway, this entire discussion of interests and bs... i dunno that there's any value in trying to re-write the protestant ethics-as-capitalism.
mircea_popescu: it's been amply documented and vastly shown to not work, one's probably better served by reading the past three centuries of various attempts.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu this a romanian article you're referring to ?
ascii_lander: it is like saying that meteorite does not work. for the man whose head it falls on - it 'worked.'
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 8800 @ 0.00031306 = 2.7549 BTC [-]
mircea_popescu: ascii_lander the idea that you can calculate the sum-value-in-the-future for alternative courses of actions and pick like you pick an investment
ascii_lander sat for a while in the tango place after mircea_popescu and hanbot went home, and reread favourite parts in ben_vulpes's copy of 'asylum', and contemplated lessons thereof
mircea_popescu: it's squarely irrelevant "where this leads". lead it where it may, do it or don't do it on some basis other than you know, "expectations".
mircea_popescu: all the derps pushing gaw, for instance, neglected proper causes of action because of their retarded dreams as to the future.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski no, just, the approach is meaningless. who cares what outweighs what.
ascii_lander: mircea_popescu: it is the logic of hunger. or, more to the point, of thirst. what is the logic of a stranded sailor deciding to drink sea water ?
mircea_popescu: if some "public interest" however defines "exceeds" however defined my pleasure at cutting the bankrupt's heart, what of it ?
mircea_popescu: "SHYLOCK: Till thou canst rail the seal from off my bond, thou but offend'st thy lungs to speak so loud: repair thy wit, good youth, or it will fall to cureless ruin. I stand here for law."
pete_dushenski: so it doesn't really create anything that can be compared
BingoBoingo makes first mint julep of the year with yard mint
pete_dushenski: needless to say, i can see why some people would choose a "post-birth abortion" aka infanticide
mircea_popescu: i can see why people that just killed a kid would tend to represent this as a choice
mircea_popescu: as i can see why people'd tend to represent it as no choice at all
ascii_lander: what'd be the, alternatively, trauma-surgeon-logic ?
ascii_lander: as in, perspective of reasonable thought outside of the trauma
mircea_popescu: the alternative is nothing. murder's not something to be explained.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: teh lion does not go into song after lightening the lioness' load.
ascii_lander: (the thing where everything -has- to be explained/ratiocinated is a disease of modernity, aha)
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu curious, do you think abortion is murder ? if so, at what point ?
BingoBoingo: It depends on the mother, father, and the foetus
mircea_popescu: During an appearance before the House Oversight Committee on April 14, Leonhart faced aggressive questioning over the punishment imposed on agents who were found to be engaging in “sex parties” in Colombia with prostitutes that were funded by drug cartels. Expressing displeasure that the agents were given suspensions of between two and 10 days and did not lose their positions or security clearance, Republican Rep.
mircea_popescu: Trey Gowdy of South Carolina asked, “What would it take to get fired at the DEA? The DEA agents I used to work with were worried about using their cars to pick up dry-cleaning.”
mircea_popescu: the weirdest prt being that what, you actually have to organize columbian prostitutes to fuck gringos now ?
ascii_lander: mircea_popescu: of course they have to be organized, l0l. as you can see, even basic whore can see radiation damage from a cannon-shot's distance.
pete_dushenski: "Furthermore, she has retarded reactions to murder. Murder is a fact of life. It's what healthy, adult men do, exactly as much and exactly the same as having babies is what healthy, adult women do. Her reaction to murder is akin to current day bois' reaction to birth, you'd think the sky just fell over." << closest i came to digging up an 'explanation of murder' via
http://trilema.com/2013/la-strada/ ascii_lander searched for an iconic article re: how violent death is a necessary garbage collector for a healthy civilization, found it, realized that it's a nearly untranslatable ru piece

BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: My hypothesis is the particular type of birth control pill which is trendy now. Definitely an effect on skin though, more... textured latex look shits the girls between 17-20, rather sudden onset.
trinque: surely BsAs chicks are on the pill in similar proportions
BingoBoingo: As always a mix of things, but progesterone-only mixes are very popular.
trinque: probably even have a fancy govt thing to get it from
BingoBoingo: trinque: There's so many varieties of chemical called progesterone.
trinque: mircea_popescu: hah! I wouldn't have guessed
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo afaik combos are still the bulk used everywhere.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: But progesterone only is "great for acne" hence exceedily popular in overweight America
assbot: Logged on 22-04-2015 01:01:26; ascii_lander: (cnc is a fairly legit variant of what we understand as 'programming')

ascii_lander: incidentally, is there a canonical mircea_popescu article re: the pill psycho-reversal thing ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Depends. When I was TA'ing pharm school there was noise that combo pills with estrogen included presented health risks in the form of exciting ER positive breast cancer and "blood clot promotion".
ascii_lander: mircea_popescu: the mega-boojum of the bc pill
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Never really substantiated yes, but 'Murican courts have a "chilling effect" so... progesterone only promoted under guise of acne control.
ascii_lander: mircea_popescu: the one where women in differing parts of cycle were attracted to proximate histocompatibility-pattern males (prefers 'related' during pregnancy) and distant mhc. during ovulation (prefers 'unrelated' to avoid recessive zap)
☟︎ ascii_lander: and so basic pattern is, people marry, and it's time for the offspring, woman goes off the pill, and - zap. no more attraction to the male
ascii_lander: because they met while the mhc toggle was flipped.
BingoBoingo personally never understood why implanon et al were never more popular than they are
ascii_lander: BingoBoingo: quoted item applies to -all- hormonal bc mechanisms
mircea_popescu: the reason zap no more attraction is that people by and large suck, and you don't want to be stuck with them.
ascii_lander: mircea_popescu: if it were brick-in-the-face obvious, folks might notice.
mircea_popescu: and it'd appear everywhere except for portland, the cultural notion ofwhat marriage is pretty much is constructed so it won't work.
BingoBoingo: ascii_lander: Sure, addressing other positives... easy for partner to verify by light touch of the arm... extended cycle...
BingoBoingo: ascii_lander: Implanon and its ilk go into the subcutaneous fat. easily palpated
mircea_popescu: btw, i was watching some derps getting in ben_vulpes' way at a milonga today, and omfg are the gringos ridiculous. i dunno if anyone here knows how to tango, but the idea is you drive the woman.

mircea_popescu: this dude was holding on to her arm like he was going to drown i nthe floor

ascii_lander: BingoBoingo: there is not a spare parachute for the spare parachute of the spare parachute.
ascii_lander: and after mircea_popescu left, that dude drowned in the floor
ascii_lander: or perhaps he didn't. i didn't stick around long enough
ben_vulpes: and after ascii_lander left, ben_vulpes got intimidated off the floor

ascii_lander: i mean, when the battering ram crashes through
BingoBoingo would like girls with Yugo SKS, nato grenade combo
ben_vulpes: pulling the pin does nothing to humiliate everyone involved.
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: Pin activates thermite, thermite brings liberty
ascii_lander: how does ending on on 'youtube' humiliate the thugs?
ascii_lander: they love exposure. can terrorize 1000 people instead of 1
ascii_lander: the only useful application would be to avoid 'nailgunning'
BingoBoingo: COurtroom is zoo pen at best, county far at worst
ascii_lander: at any rate, if anyone here does not have -some- variant of this in place, now would be the time to make arrangements.
ben_vulpes: and if the things are incredibly low cost and easily hidden, the unknowability of where its deployed makes people start to think multiple times.
ben_vulpes: especially if their names end up rather publically attached to such actions.
ascii_lander: ben_vulpes: does the name lon horiuchi ring a bell ?
BingoBoingo: bastard file + aluminum can = half of thermite, bastard file + rustocalypse + other half. Triggering is your problem
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: trinque Git, kinda a dealbreaker.
ascii_lander: i learned his name many years ago, shortly after the thing that made him famous. what of it. he wasn't, afaik, lynched
trinque: ben_vulpes: I've been writing quite a bit of it myself lately
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: git has an unacceptabru weakest link to constitute improvament

ascii_lander: they have them running around, there are dishes with food.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes no, it does not, because the locals are either mentally retarded or mentally ill.
mircea_popescu: before you can have good tools, you need the orcs developed enough to use them.
mircea_popescu: imagine arming the mongol horde with ak-47s only to discover they use it as a club.

ben_vulpes: but someday(!) i'll have their ears 'pon me necklace
ascii_lander: ben_vulpes: 'lazy' is not quite the word. imagine you grew up without ever interacting with cars in any way other than jumping out from under the wheels of a speeding semi every other day.
BingoBoingo: Who wouldn't want to give process servers a bit of disincentive, right recon_eric ?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes there's a subtle difference re "young mothers". serenissima is an elective thing. you don't get born into it, quite specifically.
ben_vulpes: no clearly, but the young can be set upon the road much more early can they not?
ascii_lander: williamdunne: … if they think they will be met with a chestful of lead they are going to want a little more compensation for doing their job.. << this is part of the process of how we got the 'no-knock warrant.' the next step is, of course, the 'shoot-first' warrant.

mircea_popescu: how does it go ? "honey, you're sixteen now, time to go be a whore in hong kong" ?
ben_vulpes: i suspect the odds are something abhorrent like 1/10 in each event
williamdunne: ascii_lander: There cannot be infinite escalation, and I would bet on the police being on the losing end. Shoot first warrants would end up with the neighbours making potshots at the police
mircea_popescu: ascii_lander nothing wrong with the "no knock" warrant. the point of escalation is escalation.
ascii_lander: williamdunne: pot shots at the police are not compatible with glass-house civilization.

mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes anyway, the problem of women, by and large, is that they're naturally afraid and most environments encourage this and bring them up cowardly.

mircea_popescu: <ascii_lander> they love exposure. can terrorize 1000 people instead of 1 << this is false, ftr.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: "fearless" is what i seek to instill.

ascii_lander: or is the algo 1) get killed messily by usg 2) while camera rolls 3) ??? 4) profit

mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes she got a small advance to do some bits of work, turned out she needed more to live off, but it wasn't really enough, she decided that the process which found her the place to stay in the first place couldn't possibly work to keep her in it, and wandered off to meatspace.
mircea_popescu: ascii_lander so you won't entertain this theoretical ?
ascii_lander: but this is in the realm of 'wat if your mother were aggripina and plotting against you'
ascii_lander: we live where folks abort every morning before breakfast six times.
mircea_popescu: so if woman were pregnant you'd want her to abort, because lyf sucks ?
ascii_lander is as certain that woman is in full agreement re: this issue as that she isn't a usg succubus

mircea_popescu: "In cooperation with CoinStand, I will be launching a new version of Paybase. For now I call it Paybase2.
mircea_popescu: We are not ready to talk about what it will do yet. I will only say that when we launched Paybase we did it backwards. We build the software but did not have the financial relationships in place to support our goals (finished and tested deals with card networks, FIAT to crypto licenses, banks fully committed to supporting us, etc)."
ascii_lander: mircea_popescu: to round off the offspring thread: remember the case of the sea anemone ?
mircea_popescu: wasn't he derping about how the coin can't go under, financial relationships, etc ?
ascii_lander: 'The juvenile sea squirt wanders through the sea searching for a suitable rock or hunk of coral to cling to and make its home for life. For this task, it has a rudimentary nervous system. When it finds its spot and takes root, it doesn't need its brain anymore, so it eats it! It's rather like getting tenure.'
mircea_popescu: you know, it's not written in the fucking repository of thermodynamic laws you have to raise your children like the retarded americans.
mircea_popescu: how about, the women raise them, in the gyneceum, and you just sit ?

One of which smacked GTS right in the face, causing her to spill the remaining slices all over the ground. Her fist clenched as her arm drew back and I knew nothing would stop her from punching JLW right in the face. Except JLW was already on the ground, desperately trying to

mircea_popescu: so, a guy and his best friend. ok, this happens. they're friends for the usual stupid reasons : lived nearby, and never contradicted each other.
mircea_popescu: only fucktarded teens think this way, but then again i guess that's what they are.
mircea_popescu: then one's family is a military man and his pliable wife. but no, not for shithead. "B&P (Booze&Pills) : Ahabs good for almost nothing, rehab bound mother. Major Asshole : Ahabs equally absent and physically abusive military father."
mircea_popescu: you know, if THAT woman had an equally uncharitable view of the speaker, he'd probably read "good for almost nothing but shitting diapers idiot"
mircea_popescu: now why exactly would someone decide that their home life is miserable ? oh, because that's how fucktarded adolescents think. okay.
mircea_popescu: viva la reddit, but at least learn teh fucking rhetorics, rather than deluge the interwebs in chicken scribblings.
mircea_popescu: but the kicker : the other family is a successful man and his ambitious wife. THIS IS ALSO NOT GOOD.
mircea_popescu: what the fuck would it take for these idiots to think their parents ~their superiors~ ?
mircea_popescu: cuz i suspect this is the deep reason asciilifeform doesn't want offspring. i tell you if the 19 yo snot that imagines he's better than me (like you know, every single fuctkared 19 yo snot "being famous in the bitcoin community" etc that we see here periodically bubble up his idiocy and then six months later fail abjectly and disappear) actually grew up in my house, i'd shoot it to death with blunt toothpicks.
mircea_popescu: which i suppose makes me the perfect storm of a horribru father (as per reddit) : the cross between "absent and physically abusive military father." and "coke snorting, random hooker banging, land development dealing father."
