| ben_vulpes: | rip lc | [03:13] |
| Framedragger: | mircea_popescu: re. http://trilema.com/2015/trilema-burns/ : you write that "Apparently the EU is about as impotent in practice as its fame for impotence promises in theory" in response to you being able to search for that person on google.com.ar whereas that letter plainly states that "Only results on European versions of Google are affected." | [06:09] |
| Framedragger: | I am of course not disagreeing with the spirit of the matter, incl. regarding impotence etc. | [06:09] |
| mircea_popescu: | i don't get it, they lack the letters a and r on eu keyboards ? | [06:24] |
| mircea_popescu: | are you proposing that there's some sort of substance to an url, like "searching on google.com.ar" is somehow similar to "fucking girls in the alley behind the bar IN ROUEN rather than Bekescsaba" ? | [06:25] |
| Framedragger: | i'm sure that google did not want to do more than was required, so they made the effects visible on the "european" version of google, for european users (the latter identified by ip address or, if logged into google accounts, selected country there or somesuch). | [06:27] |
| mircea_popescu: | there's exactly no relation between url and geolocation is there ? | [06:28] |
| Framedragger: | so yes it's super trivial, but then - .eu can't dictate google's search results for non-european customers | [06:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | in the end i'm not sure what you're saying. | [06:28] |
| Framedragger: | hmm | [06:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | "but mp, in the game they're playing this makes sense to them" "okay ?" | [06:29] |
| Framedragger: | i got confused. basically, i think a european customer would get the same (doctored) results if they ran a search on .ar. | [06:29] |
| Framedragger: | basically. | [06:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | nonsense. | [06:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | this is like saying a frenchman would see the internet in french even if he called trilema.com | [06:30] |
| Framedragger: | mircea_popescu: fuck, you're right. "Some results may have been removed under data protection law in Europe" when running from google eu both trilema URLs when running from .ar. what is this nonsense | [06:31] |
| Framedragger: | okay, this is ridoinculously ineffective. lol. | [06:31] |
| jurov: | http://trilema.com/forum-logs-for-10-nov-2016#2191808 layering "expressive" abstractions is not the only way to fit thigs into head. | [06:32] |
| a111: | Logged on 2016-11-11 01:17 asciilifeform: the flow charts add 0 to the expressivity | [06:32] |
| mircea_popescu: | the most important point here is that you for some god forsaken reason ACTUALLY THOUGHT, in your head, that if you write "whore" in lipstick on the back of your wife you're now fucking a whore. | [06:32] |
| Framedragger: | look i didn't have much hope for this eurolaw thing on google etc, i did however assume that to circumvent it, one would have to spend at least a few minutes (masking IP whatnot), not a few seconds | [06:33] |
| mircea_popescu: | this is what they mean when they say reddit makes one stupid : "social media" tends to drive this name-object confusion in young'uns. | [06:33] |
| mircea_popescu: | Framedragger no, you're gettin' it now :D | [06:34] |
| Framedragger: | my whole worldview is an array of name-object confusions. half of my mental life is like that "hesperus is phoshorus" problem | [06:35] |
| Framedragger: | "but if the first star is planet venus and the second star is planet venus, then.. WHO WAS PHONE" | [06:36] |
| Framedragger: | 'prenatal child gets introduced to semantics' kind of mental blur >.< | [06:37] |
| mircea_popescu: | well, it goes away as you age. | [06:47] |
| mircea_popescu: | anyway, frege's own example is much better than the latter retellings in english. he used der Abendstern and der Morgenstern. | [07:04] |
| mircea_popescu: | you see what the anglotards did ? they replaced the names but not innocently. they replaced to serve the two things anglotards are all about : a fake loftyness (oh noes, really, classical names by the classically educated ? except medieval fakes ? ohoho how very cheers-vilised we find ourselves, that frasier crane will eat his heart out!) and a practical confusion. Now you need ~them~ to explain to you what the names mean, | [07:06] |
| mircea_popescu: | it's no longer evident like in that Nazi's naive packaging. It's good for the economy! It creates jobs! | [07:06] |
| mircea_popescu: | stay away from translations especially in philosophy (which is everything besides plumbing) especially when translated into english and especially when translated from german. | [07:07] |
| mircea_popescu: | stay away from translation, for translation is treason. | [07:08] |
| Framedragger: | mircea_popescu: good point. a fair note though, some translations use 'morning star' and 'evening star', which convey the meaning well, i think. | [07:11] |
| Framedragger: | though, then it's not clear that 'morning star' and 'evening star' are *proper* names (like Jacob), so... | [07:11] |
| Framedragger: | ugh, translation. | [07:11] |
| Framedragger: | (they're supposed to be proper names, not just 'table') | [07:11] |
| mircea_popescu: | the problem with trason isn't that you can't find a faithful translation. | [07:14] |
| mircea_popescu: | the problem with treason is that you can't identify which it is | [07:14] |
| mircea_popescu: | as per macbeth, you know. | [07:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | treason drives insanity. | [07:15] |
| Framedragger: | :) | [07:17] |
| Framedragger: | hm. yeah | [07:17] |
| Framedragger: | i wonder, maybe some of frege's stuff can be read in english in 'relative' (i'm naive yes) safety. for example his foundations of Arithmetic | [07:18] |
| Framedragger: | i've never read the latter, and my deutsch is bad (but in principle passable with a dictionary at hand, possibly) | [07:18] |
| mircea_popescu: | there's a reason the perfidious islands produced nothing in their entire history. that reason has to do to how there isn't even the words to translate properly, so either they hide behind some greek statue located in a french garden, or else they make with the common nouns. | [07:19] |
| mircea_popescu: | english is a fine language to do your accounting in. | [07:19] |
| mircea_popescu: | (and yes, i'm saying that the typical reasoning, "he said grab them by the pussy therefore he disrespects women" is not simply due to the speaker being stupid, or lazy. it's also how english happens to work, internally.) | [07:23] |
| Framedragger: | mircea_popescu: incidentally, any recommendation on which of the following to pick to learn as a new tongue? (sample at hand is due to some future pragmatical considerations, in terms of possible living places etc. - maybe not he last entry): french (i can't french at all), german (some knowledge), portuguese (none), russian (very rudimentary, call it none) | [07:24] |
| mircea_popescu: | what's your process for learning as a new tongue ? | [07:24] |
| Framedragger: | i haven't decided. last time it happened i was in high school. healthy dose of conversation + good textbooks, though that is not really a concrete process at all. | [07:26] |
| Framedragger: | i'd like to be able to read some god damn decent literature in something else than english or lithuanian (the latter is an OK language, too bad it's language of proles) | [07:27] |
| mircea_popescu: | languages are to be learnt from women. so go out with girls you like, pick the first one who also has a lot of booksat home, learn her language. | [07:28] |
| jurov: | Framedragger: if literature, then defo go for german | [07:29] |
| Framedragger: | mircea_popescu: nice, that sounds.. not like a chore. some very nice advice to be tried.. thanks. | [07:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | or french. or portuguese. or russian. but yes. | [07:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | Framedragger i never learned a language any other way, and this includes fucking latin. | [07:29] |
| Framedragger: | wowza | [07:29] |
| Framedragger: | that's pretty cool. | [07:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | (yes, the reason mp doesn't lisp may have a lot to do with the absence of hot lisp chicks.) | [07:30] |
| * Framedragger | imagines mircea_popescu learning declensions by writing with ink on a girl's back | [07:30] |
| mircea_popescu: | lol. you know, if you drive to the starbucks it doesn't follow you actually stopped the car inside the booth. | [07:31] |
| Framedragger: | jurov: curious why german in particular. but hm! fair enough i guess | [07:31] |
| mircea_popescu: | possibly cuz that's what he read ? you certainly won't starve in any of the ones mentioned. | [07:31] |
| jurov: | Framedragger: was interested into psychology, went to read in original | [07:33] |
| Framedragger: | ..yeah i'm not going for sindarin or w/e language(s) tolkien invented. could be fun, but.. eh | [07:33] |

| jurov: | gandi.net needs to join tmsr. then we can have domains for phree :D | [16:23] |
| asciilifeform: | ( and how many other necessary things does mircea_popescu buy at-cost, and really, there's no catch..? ) | [16:23] |
| asciilifeform: | jurov: there is an upstream cost, given as all dns regs are sub-leases from hitler. | [16:23] |
| jurov: | I see you got the joke. | [16:24] |
| asciilifeform: | at one point i worked for a co that supplied dns reg as part of a larger package of high-roller services (rather than, as usually seen with registrars, to public) -- the 'crown concession' was quite costly | [16:25] |
| asciilifeform: | (mid 6-figs at the time iirc) | [16:26] |
| asciilifeform: | (they also collected fat moneys for the service, i shit thee not, of watching that the domain reg does not 'walk away', because not-winblowzing, not-using-guessable-pw, etc. is Too Much To Expect from multi-$B 'tbtf' orgs) | [16:27] |

| mircea_popescu: | the one thing with the email leaks is just how fucking incredibly worthless all these people are. their productions are literally not worth reading. | [19:03] |
| the_scourge: | cheers m8 | [19:03] |
| mircea_popescu: | if i were stuck in a situation where i had to read this crap i'd be shooting people. | [19:03] |
| the_scourge: | mircea_popescu: billions of dollars and big data on every mutherfucker on the planet can make up for a lot of incompetence :( | [19:03] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: aha, i tried to read the clitler, rumsfeld, etc. crud and literally fell asleep. | [19:03] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: right in my chair. | [19:04] |
| BingoBoingo: | <mircea_popescu> and least narwahl wasn't as horrifying as that orca shit romney came up with. << Amazing that Trump's less budget meant not buying landwhales | [19:04] |
| mircea_popescu: | it's like... motherfucker, GO TO SCHOOL! come back in six years or such. | [19:04] |
| mircea_popescu: | BingoBoingo yep. best thing that can happen for one in the us is not having money. | [19:04] |
| mircea_popescu: | the_scourge notreally. it can provide an edge if the other side is just as incompetent, that's about all. | [19:05] |
| the_scourge: | mircea_popescu: i think the problem is too much school, not enough learning | [19:05] |
| mircea_popescu: | something like that. too much school that never saw school and too many hamburgers that never saw a pig. | [19:05] |
| * BingoBoingo | dreams of the alphrophecy being realized. Parking on white house lawn because replacing lawn with my lawn, pls get off. | [19:05] |
| the_scourge: | mircea_popescu: agreed. that's why they are literally falling apart in front of our eyes | [19:05] |
| the_scourge: | mircea_popescu: i'm more bullish on USD than i have been in decades. at least for short/med term | [19:06] |
| BingoBoingo: | the_scourge: Why would Mr. T make you bullish on USD. Renegotiating national debt will raise interest rates. Especially when US has bankruptcy filing on credit report. | [19:08] |
| the_scourge: | BingoBoingo: alphrophecy not in the logs on either channel, what is that? | [19:08] |
| the_scourge: | BingoBoingo: he doesn't. Keystone and other things do | [19:08] |
| BingoBoingo: | the_scourge: It is in logs. A future president drives to White house and parks pick up truck on lawn. | [19:08] |
| the_scourge: | !search alphrophecy | [19:08] |
| BingoBoingo: | the_scourge: It isn't like a bit of inflation or devaluation of the USd is a bad thing. | [19:09] |

| the_scourge: | asciilifeform: yes | [19:14] |
| the_scourge: | you americans call it a double tap | [19:15] |
| BingoBoingo: | the_scourge: I'll prolly go GM, either S10 or Sonoma. Factory bed replaced with flat one of own crafting. But truck must wait for 5 kilo dollar to USd exchagne rate because priorities | [19:15] |
| asciilifeform: | the_scourge: actually we call it 'контрольный выстрел' | [19:15] |
| the_scourge: | dollar to USD meaning CAD to USD? | [19:15] |
| BingoBoingo: | Sorry, 5 kiloUSd to BTC | [19:17] |
| the_scourge: | BingoBoingo: if you want a flatbed, just get a Hilux with a bed that is shot to shit. My brother just sold one, cab was in beautiful condition except where I had let a canoe rub on the top | [19:17] |
| the_scourge: | asciilifeform: http://kv-journal.su/ < is this контрольный выстрел ? | [19:18] |
| BingoBoingo: | the_scourge: Why would I want terrorist jap truck when I can find rust American Iron to give blessing of Great Again! | [19:18] |
| asciilifeform: | the_scourge: it is simply what the tradition of shooting a man in the head second time for good measure is called on other side of the atlantic. | [19:18] |
| * the_scourge | isn't sure that tmux got the characters perfect | [19:18] |
| the_scourge: | asciilifeform: you misunderstood. the double tap is both to the body. It is the mozambique drill or failure drill that adds a third to the head | [19:20] |
| the_scourge: | 'контрольный выстрел' is approximately "control shot"? | [19:20] |
| asciilifeform: | aha | [19:20] |
| * the_scourge | was thinking about driving over to Ukraine and jumping in with Azov a little bit ago | [19:22] |
| the_scourge: | would have had to learn some of the lingo | [19:22] |
| mats: | lol | [19:22] |
| the_scourge: | I'd be happy to learn Ukrainian or Russian if it meant I could mob up with em | [19:23] |
| asciilifeform: | because this is apparently how it works..? | [19:23] |
| phf: | you just need enough mat to get by, unfortunately failure to use mat ~precisely~ will probably get you in trouble | [19:24] |
| the_scourge: | asciilifeform: azov takes Swedes and Texans. I'm pretty sure tactical abilities are good as gold no matter where you are | [19:24] |
| asciilifeform: | 'i watched muuuuch anime, now wanna join yakuza' | [19:24] |
| * the_scourge | doesn't know what yakuza is | [19:25] |
| the_scourge: | Japanese? | [19:25] |
| the_scourge: | Dude they look like fucking hoodrats. What does that have to do with tactical skills? | [19:26] |
| the_scourge: | (everyone knows that kids from the hood become SF first, hoodrats later, not the other way around /s) | [19:27] |
| the_scourge: | looks like they have their tribal org down. probably lots to learn there | [19:28] |

| BingoBoingo: | In other Great Again preludes: Boeing is hiring on their F/A-18 sales staff. | [19:46] |
| BingoBoingo: | the_scourge: Kako's rating does not hold on this side of schism | [19:47] |
| BingoBoingo: | brb, sober time. | [19:47] |
| the_scourge: | BingoBoingo: that's fine I'll just relying on people generosity with voice until I've de-annoyed enough to get a rating :) | [19:48] |
| the_scourge: | BingoBoingo: schism? | [19:48] |
| BingoBoingo: | Maybe you should set a timer? Fill a flowerpot with soil and plant some bluegrass seed. Keep on your desk. If you read fast enough maybe you will have historical context before grass germinates? | [19:49] |
| BingoBoingo: | Make sure your timer is bluegrass, ryegrass timers go off too soon. | [19:50] |
| the_scourge: | BingoBoingo: ack'd. I've gotta work my way up maslow's hierarchy before I have a desk to put the bluegrass seed on | [19:52] |
| the_scourge: | lots has happened while i was away. Brexit like wtf | [19:53] |
