asciilifeform: schmucktard, last i heard, was resting on a sofa made of whores in thailand [10:39]
asciilifeform: and lacking for nothing [10:39]
mircea_popescu: if your stupid head causes you to stumble, CUT IT FUCKING OFF! http://trilema.com/2016/gangs-of-new-york/ style! [10:39]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you have this very strange "man is entirely made of extrinsic motivation" outlook. [10:40]
mircea_popescu: what the fuck does the sofa enter into any discussion of morals ? [10:40]
asciilifeform: in application to d00d who never showed any symptoms of intrinsic (i.e. theorems) -- yes [10:40]
asciilifeform: afaik kako had nothing that could be confused for morals. took the thirty pieces of silver, and living it up. [10:41]
asciilifeform: immediately when it was offered -- took. [10:41]
asciilifeform: funnily and coincidentally, it was happening at exactly the same time as, far away, asciilifeform refused to take 'top seekrit' holy orders for usg 'contractor' [10:44]
asciilifeform: but no, sofa does not enter discussion of morals other than in re 'the thirty pieces of silver, were in fact troo silver', evidently some quislings are paid handsomely, rather than left to flap on the wind esr-style [10:46]
mircea_popescu: i've no way to evaluate all this. [10:49]
asciilifeform: some people are only distinguished from 'short' pig in that they stand on two legs. and these in fact are made ~entirely of extrinsic motivation. [10:49]
asciilifeform: morals are in fact what remains when there is nothing else with which to evaluate... [10:49]

mircea_popescu: original comment applies equally well to the whole agitcamp. [10:50]
mircea_popescu: public or private, what fucking difference does it make that you were wrong ~privately~ ? still wrong, still gotta fix etc. [10:51]
asciilifeform: the segshitter's 'wrong' is deliberately crafted disinfo, for the consumption of redditards. why would they recant. [10:52]
asciilifeform: they see it as 'noble lie' etc. [10:52]
mircea_popescu: because wrong. [10:52]

ben_vulpes: semi-relatedly, i went to build an extension cord for my dryer, ~all the old women at the hardwarestoremegachain insisted that i simply could not do what i was going to do [12:52]
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: 30amp 220v cord dun come in 'extension' in usa, for the obvious reason that the cable dun come in real-copper and the socket dun come in non-chinese, ergo automatic fire hazard. [12:54]
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: buy the plug, the actual-copper 30amp 4conductor cable, and make new cord, then attach to the internal bolts. [12:54]
asciilifeform: forget 'extension'. [12:54]
asciilifeform: this is sorta the pasteurized milk thread again, in different light. 'can't have unmolested milk, because ~must~ have caged cows, and ergo unmolested milk will killya' etc [12:56]
ben_vulpes: lol, precisely what i did [12:57]
ben_vulpes: leprosy cheese on the shit sandwich of american products is that the dryer power cable was not trivially replaceable, had to be extended. [12:58]
asciilifeform: why not replaceable ? [12:58]
asciilifeform: typically it's attached to lug bolts under the cover [12:58]
ben_vulpes: 'trivially', did not want to start gentooing dryers as well [12:59]
ben_vulpes: when heater element goes, then, fine. [12:59]
asciilifeform: 'trivially' in the sense where you dun need any higher tech than screwdriver [12:59]
ben_vulpes: oh also receptacle is very high on the wall, extending made it a guaranteed fit, replacing woulda been tight borderline not-workable. [12:59]
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: and move dryer, and and and all sorts of unknowns, vs just buy receptacle while also buying pigtail. [13:00]
asciilifeform: ah then you've made the chinese cord for yerself, lol [13:01]
ben_vulpes: well it's a rated pigtail, copper through and through [13:07]
asciilifeform: socket more often the problem. [13:08]

mircea_popescu: dja know how to calc teh distance ? [20:20]
asciilifeform: it's a contact print in either case [20:20]
asciilifeform: ( even in ideal case, will be a somewhat smudged contact print, because chip die is buried under a lid ) [20:21]
mircea_popescu: ah [20:21]
mircea_popescu: i thought you had it exposed. [20:21]
asciilifeform: nope, saving it for all-in-one microscopy go. [20:21]
mircea_popescu: yeah makes sense [20:21]
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-22#1741925 << ooh neato ty [20:23]

asciilifeform: îţâşă!! [20:23]
mircea_popescu: (all the proposed definitions are at least somewhat reasonable) [20:23]
* asciilifeform picks 'Se referă la o femeie enervantă care pune prea multe întrebări, deşi nu va înţelege niciodată vreun răspuns.' [20:24]
mircea_popescu: lol. nb. [20:24]
mircea_popescu: (to keep form it has to be always feminine anyway, so this works surprisingly well) [20:24]
asciilifeform: lol! loox like i picked the winning horse... [20:25]
mircea_popescu: nah, strimb won. [20:25]
asciilifeform: ah hm yea [20:25]
* BingoBoingo to sober time, will likely blog update progress upon return [20:28]
asciilifeform: btw asciilifeform discovered that his bathroom makes an almost worthless dark room -- has window. and after eyes dilate can see that somewhere far away, faint headlights etc [20:28]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform cut up cardboard, coupla inches larger than window, duct-tape on. [20:28]
asciilifeform: other find : 'scotch' tape is not usable in darkroom experiment : it triboluminesces [20:28]
asciilifeform: yea stuck doing sumthing with the window. [20:29]
mircea_popescu: duct tape. [20:29]
asciilifeform: all stickytape actually. [20:29]
mircea_popescu: also, shaving foam on the inside of doorway. [20:29]
mircea_popescu: holy shit turns out i know a lot about field developing. [20:29]
asciilifeform: doorway was ok, simply cut the lights in the rest of the house. [20:30]
mircea_popescu: oh cuz you have roof. [20:30]
asciilifeform: electrical tape for the idjit green led in the mains socket... [20:30]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: lolwat do you mean 'have roof' ? indeed whole thing would be quite impossible outdoors [20:32]
asciilifeform: unless using one of those field darkroom sacks [20:32]
asciilifeform: ( prolly was the right item actually. that sack, with the arm sleeves ) [20:33]
mircea_popescu: just being silly. [20:33]
asciilifeform: hm, interestingly, the crapola inside polaroid is quite nasty, picture alkaline battery that's been rotting for 20 yrs [20:33]
mircea_popescu: ~only utility for those is "baby's first naked pic" back when they didn't shave, didn't suck cock and didn't habitually strip naked in company. [20:34]
asciilifeform: can't comment, i never in entire life owned the actual camera for them [20:34]
asciilifeform: always seemed like ripoff, 10-20x the cost of normal film [20:35]
mircea_popescu: for that exact reason. [20:38]
mircea_popescu: thinking abouthttp://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-22#1741970, "пизда îţâşă" would make a pretty decent sluttattoo. [20:42]
