mircea_popescu: | http://trilema.com/2009/economia-sexului/#selection-77.42-77.94 << epic re-read. and yes, very much going back to religious supression, it's called "feminism", and it "liberates" women. from "rape" and "the male gaze" and things. | [04:05] |
ave1: | !Q later tell phf, I've been running some tests on my system and it could be that an earlier step failed to install the header files correctly, could you run these commands and send me the output? http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/EllTj/?raw=true | [06:30] |
lobbesbot: | ave1: The operation succeeded. | [06:30] |
ave1: | I'm also installing debian 8.10 to see if I can find anything (Spyked had a similar problem a while back but then he retried the script on another system so we never went deeper into this problem) | [06:32] |

BingoBoingo: | So Friday night 19 year old kid was struck by a car 2 blocks away from my bed in an act the competent authorities are pinning on "street racers". So the question is "Wat do?" | [10:49] |
BingoBoingo: | Wat do? Leads to a heavy presence of traffic police on foot wearing their yellow vests and covering about a quarter block area immediately around where the crash was the night before. | [10:51] |
BingoBoingo: | The road in question is the Rambla (not to be confused with The Rambla, the major coastal walk way next to the road where locals sit on grass and hit their Mate crack pipes) which is the closest thing the city has to a freeway. | [10:55] |
BingoBoingo: | Imagine my surprise walking past and not seeing a single assault rifle or submachine gun among the group given the way the local police arm themselves for other occasions. | [11:00] |
asciilifeform: | BingoBoingo: do they ever even fire them broomstix? not such big town that you couldnt hear it, i imagine ? | [11:01] |
BingoBoingo: | Flock of traffic police in yellow vests in a crowd size that routinely gets Aloha Snackbarred in Europe expected to confront motor vehicles while less imposingly armed than daytime ATM cops | [11:02] |
BingoBoingo: | asciilifeform: They don't fire them anywhere near me. Further north and east recently they have gotten into at least one firefight according to the local papers, but hard tell what the police fired | [11:03] |
BingoBoingo: | There were injuries among the police and "Prosegur" private security folks involved. Casualties among the bank robbers less certain. | [11:05] |
asciilifeform: | BingoBoingo: sounds like 'own goal', ameri-style | [11:11] |
BingoBoingo: | Not at all unlikely | [11:13] |
BingoBoingo: | Tambien the visibility of the "Special Forces Police" has gone up as well. They Ride around in pairs on big Kawasaki adventure motocicletas or drive around in pairs in small SUV's with anti brick mesh over the windows. I have never actually seen them moving, They just seem to park at corners and sit to be visible | [11:18] |
trinque: | aaaand cuntoo rebuilt (emerge -aev @world) using only cuntoo ebuilds | [11:26] |

trinque: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-23#1852932 << I wrote a profile flattener which would walk the profile tree and concat all the config files. sadly, the rules by which a parent's configs are applied to the child are neither of parent-wins or child-wins. it appears that mask and force interact in a more complicated way that I've yet to fully load into skull | [11:30] |

trinque: | what I've done instead is slurped out just the profiles used, without concatenating. this fits with my strategy of the genesis patch being as close to "what was found" as possible, with only machine transformations involved in the leap from gentoo to cuntoo | [11:31] |
trinque: | I can next hand-craft a descendent patch for a similar "tmsr" base profile, and torch all the rest | [11:32] |

mod6: | how goes mircea_popescu? | [11:58] |
mircea_popescu: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-23#1852927 << thinking about it, there's actually a LOT of societal change underway. take fetlife : it consists, as far as identifiable human life is concerned, of one dude who made some money (usuaully, "tech", which is to say computers -- but as girl points out, "i also know a lot of computer geeks who have no money ie, "ILLEGAL" computers) who have a cunt that's looking for another cunt. be | [11:59] |

mircea_popescu: | cause god damn it, who the fuck is gonna get "married" and "monogamy" ? harem or get lost, the social choices are asexual wankerism for the govt-supported and harem for the miscolred bits crowd. that's it and that's all, the 1970 "new york of trades" where "every man" house, wife, children, etc (cher's moonstruck a fine example of this utopia as ever can be had) utterly disappeared sometime since america ended. | [11:59] |
mircea_popescu: | and i don't think there is a SINGLE cop anywhere in the us who isn't either a) completely braindamaged, "i pray every day i manage to get through the day without fucking up massively, like, losing my gun in some bushes because i shat myself hearing gunfire" a la j c reilly in magnolia) | [12:02] |
mircea_popescu: | or else exactly this b), "i got a harem of whores on the quiet". and this b is maybe 60% of the "force", really. | [12:02] |
mircea_popescu: | the ~reason~ every study finds that whores with pimps are doing 20-50% better than solo artists is PRECISELY that 70-80% of the "pimps" (ie, the men in these women's lives, that they navigate around and anchor their life on / center their affect on) are cops. | [12:03] |
mircea_popescu: | mod6 goes great! | [12:03] |
asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: iirc you spent some yrs in egypt what % of chix wouldja say were parked in harems ( of arity >= 2 , lol ) | [12:03] |
mircea_popescu: | foregoing leaving me with the conclusion that chicks who don't want to lindsey kuper / http://trilema.com/2014/and-now-for-part-2-of-our-smash-hit-hey-stupid-women-we-need-to-talk-smart-women-don%E2%80%99t-want-to-be-with-you-anymore/ (ie, be the house mother of a bunch of tards, either cockless males online or else dubious junkies offline) | [12:04] |
mircea_popescu: | are stuck either b) joining a herd of similarly cunted followers of a great man or else c) convincingly telling themselves they don't have sexual parts. | [12:04] |

asciilifeform: | lol, picture thread, a: 'what % of what they ate was meat, mircea_popescu ' m : 'all with nutritive value > epsilon, was in my fridge !' | [12:07] |
mircea_popescu: | not in my fridge! i was personally tolerated (with my "harem of one") among a select crowd of upwardly mobile, english speaking, "tryna make something of this shithole" young males. | [12:07] |
asciilifeform: | hm. | [12:07] |
mircea_popescu: | the ones who won out of the "go to the center of businessmen, pay for dialup modem by hour, write love letters to fat white women, get them to come over with money, build house at euro standards for tourist trade" lottery. | [12:08] |
mod6: | haha | [12:08] |
* asciilifeform | read recently a description of this egypt, from a ru chix pov | [12:09] |
asciilifeform: | went, roughly, 'yes i can have anyffing i want here, but they're fucking subhuman' | [12:09] |
mircea_popescu: | now, it's true that the ovine set (because yes, every harem stratified, not "all womenz alike" http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-23#1852907 bs exists in there), so there IS a portion that can't think but breastfeed ok had 0 problem doing it right in front of me, evne though as much as walking into the girls' subway cart was a major big fucking deal. | [12:10] |

mircea_popescu: | and it's also true the yet unwed fillies were very flattered by strange requests like "gimme the pin that's holding up your hiqab, i wanna pierce this bottle of super glue". | [12:11] |
mircea_popescu: | HOWEVER, loads and loads and LOADS of 30yo males without property were spending 24/7 trying to figure out how to use me to clean the shit of failure offa themselves. | [12:11] |
asciilifeform: | lol! orcistani glue dun have pointy caps?! | [12:12] |
mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform her arabic is poor. they're not subhuman, they just don't know what she knows./ | [12:12] |
mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform see ? | [12:12] |
mircea_popescu: | read more arabic poetry understand more of the locals. | [12:12] |
* asciilifeform | on the beginning leg of a Mocky-inspired arabic kick , incidentally | [12:13] |
mircea_popescu: | the one overpoweringly important question sitting at the cornerstone of all learning, | [12:13] |
mircea_popescu: | is whether one does it to "it turns out i was right" or whether the one does it to "well, little wonder i lost myself, there wasn't much there to lose in the first place". | [12:13] |
mircea_popescu: | the former is how erudition without girlfriends is managed by the sort of people who "i spent 30 years in china still don't have local whores ready to be turned out for love". | [12:14] |
mircea_popescu: | i met some of these. | [12:14] |
asciilifeform: | i'm going from a very vintage brit b00k, with very flavourful examples, e.g. 'donkey is poor man's horse', 'i killed the man whose uncle killed my father', 'to be killed is the noblest death', etc in this spirit | [12:14] |
mircea_popescu: | honestly i subscribe to the latter. | [12:16] |
mircea_popescu: | who the fuck can possibly think so much of shits that "died in their bed" ? | [12:17] |
mircea_popescu: | "you know what ? so did your unborn brother -- died in your mother's bed" | [12:17] |
asciilifeform: | 'die not the straw death!'(tm)(r)(odin) | [12:17] |
asciilifeform: | one of those things sane folx seem to come to agreement in. | [12:18] |
mircea_popescu: | "house mother" being, of course, the term of art -- the matron of ye olde brothel, this big fat older woman. | [12:22] |
mircea_popescu: | anyway, russian (at least as far as classical ru cultuer goes) chick is possibly the LEAST capable of making the jump. most demanding of manliness in the mate female out there, "you know what ? ima go be this guy's whore, get lost loser" QUITE the open possibility even walkin' down the street. | [12:26] |
mircea_popescu: | so no, i don't expect she'd easily manage a moscow-cairo resettlement on her own steam. | [12:26] |
asciilifeform: | is how they end up in camelfuckistan to begin with, neh. | [12:27] |
mircea_popescu: | well... i dunno. she wants a tall blond white guy (arabs are short olive darkhaired) who can jump on a fleeing horse and drink with her (arabs can't drink) and gets fucking furious on a dime (arabs are much mellower, they get fucking enraged, but it takes them more than 800ms). | [12:29] |
mircea_popescu: | these are the sticky points, roughly. | [12:30] |
asciilifeform: | whoknows, could be -- wanted chechen, but her compass was broken, lol | [12:31] |
mircea_popescu: | nah, see, problems with chechek is that she ALSO wants guy who reliably rapes the system/police/hermother. | [12:35] |
mircea_popescu: | and while this can be had in both moscow and cairo, it can't be fucking had in orcland. though she'll confusingly not call this, the only true subhumanity, "subhuman", more like "they're fuckingstupid, like children" | [12:35] |
mircea_popescu: | but they are NOT like children, they are like morons. that her inner uvula tingle proposes that "boy who drinks and rides will grow into landruler" dun mean it's how it actually goes. | [12:36] |
asciilifeform: | 'not all that glitters' etc | [12:55] |
mircea_popescu: | or tingles, as the case may be. yes/ | [12:56] |
asciilifeform: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-23#1852961 << they actually select for this, somewhat, by hiring ~100% iraq tour | [12:56] |

asciilifeform: | ( the days when general-purpose jobless d00d could sign up in ameri-police, are long gone ) | [12:57] |
mircea_popescu: | that's the amusing part of the human body : if you can tickle her, she's not aroused, same pathway serves both and it'd be blocked. lots and lots and LOTS of this multi-use, switched single wiring in the human body. as a for instance, the "not all that tingles" signal for "don't end up with a loser" and "not all that tingles" signal for "downregulate libido in general" is the same pathway in womenz. | [12:57] |
asciilifeform: | hey, critter that shares air hole with food hole also double-wires nerves, noose at 11.. | [12:58] |
mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform aha, it's well on its way to becoming the ruling caste of the sovietistan of america. much like in ye other one, really. | [12:58] |
mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform and pee hole with delicious filling hole. | [12:58] |

mircea_popescu: | meanwhile in fetlulz, i neartly fell out of my chair, because after roughly 5k complaints "i can't read the subject line", in came one saying "oh, wait, i flipped my phone over now i see it" | [12:59] |
mircea_popescu: | holy shit almighty. | [13:00] |

mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform i have nfi. but if the problem isn't that the site's just broken, and cuts off subjects as a token of "great web ux", but rather they're just universally TOO FUCKING STUPID TO FLIP THEIR PHONES.... | [13:01] |
mircea_popescu: | sometimes i suspect the imbecility of the average walker is not sufficiently understood. | [13:02] |
asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: i can only guess, the patients haven't bought that dinnerplate-sized ipnoje yet | [13:02] |

asciilifeform: | is it 'adapter' to fit chinese cocks, or wat | [13:07] |
mircea_popescu: | i imagine underwater torpedo tube sold separately ? | [13:07] |
mircea_popescu: | (most women fail to get aroused with plastic only in unaroused women, the uterus head hurts when pounded [see above sicussion] therefore... why not fix the not-problem part of the problem) | [13:08] |
asciilifeform: | that thing. i think my engine is mounted on something quite similar, wonder if clever repurpose. | [13:08] |

mircea_popescu: | in which lulz : took new girl to strip club and then brothel yest. strip club charged me $75 in cover, notwithstanding i brought the hottest girl there, by a fat margin. so while we sit and drink through our included drinks, i see, wonders of wonders, a girl's feet off the ground for once. first time in this country. she even did a bit of floor work! totally, for cr standards tango india vip is utterly happening. | [13:13] |
mircea_popescu: | more disinterested girls you never saw, even at starbucks eventually the pit boss had to send a couple of the perfunctory shitheads to sit at our table, whom i waved off to their great excitement (how wonderful! now we can just say we checked the tickbox and don't have to do anything! there's nothing anyone can do, we tried!). | [13:14] |
mircea_popescu: | all around, fat computer geeks holding on to their beers. | [13:14] |

mircea_popescu: | a few retirees on evidently fixed incomes. i can't imagine who the fuck would let them in, they want to nurse a beer while some hottie holds their thigh, it looks WAY too much like retirement home services for comfort. | [13:15] |

asciilifeform: | ( think herman goering, rather than gabriel_laddel ) | [13:34] |
mircea_popescu: | well... but i mean, what. speed freak on speed ? yes, evident. heroin addict on heroin ? yes fucking evident. cokehead ? yes. | [13:35] |
asciilifeform: | ( or -- is 'junkie' ~definitionally~ addict who lacks his fix ) | [13:35] |
mircea_popescu: | no, junkie is definitionally... actually, there's a great film, in which al pacino is "about to quit, he's jsut chippin' anyway" and his brother tells his gf he ain't chippin, he's a user. | [13:36] |

asciilifeform: | ( and the q is, who counts as addict. and does def then include e.g. thyroid patient, and chix on bc pillz ) | [13:39] |
mircea_popescu: | anyway, the junkie's like the "pleabargained" felon or the married man : refuse, used up. he's got his children to take care of and a certain investment, no longer apt of being part of human society. http://trilema.com/2012/cine-se-casatoreste/ problem. | [13:40] |

Mocky: | ha, "However, the new decree stipulates that if a permanent resident leaves Qatar for more than six months, the interior minister could withdraw from the residency" | [23:01] |
BingoBoingo: | They seem to have the usual "marry a qualified local get a permit" deal | [23:40] |
mircea_popescu: | o wow, logexplosion | [23:42] |
mircea_popescu: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-24#1853417 << then people want to talk about how "you can never trust bitcoin operators, always will split and run". | [23:47] |
a111: | Logged on 2018-09-24 02:11 asciilifeform: it is interesting to consider diff b/w esr and linus. esr judased a thing he had 0 part in baking, and wanked for 20y on the periphery of. linus on oher hand merrily fucked not only the folx who were dumb enuff to invest 25y into baking with him, but... own life's work | [23:47] |
mircea_popescu: | somehow i expect the linux bonfire will not be included in the list of http://trilema.com/2012/and-another-one-bites-the-dust-bitmarketeu/ | [23:48] |
mircea_popescu: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-24#1853420 << i re-read his early announcements re nascent linux (publicly, quoted here) and was not impressed. no, not always shit. always manalone. this DOES NOT work. | [23:49] |
a111: | Logged on 2018-09-24 02:14 asciilifeform: and ftr i dun buy mircea_popescu's 'was always a shit' hypothesis. d00d by any possible measure 'by the fruits' was NOT always-shit. | [23:49] |
mircea_popescu: | for the exact reason on display : even the most heady, hardy etc still get old and stupid eventually. and later is actually worse than early. | [23:49] |
mircea_popescu: | anyway. i comiserate, terrible days for asciilifeform erryone in his pre-wot just keeps turning shitty. | [23:51] |
asciilifeform: | eh not exactly sudden, this death | [23:51] |
mircea_popescu: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-24#1853434 << importantly, did not even do the item which was all that was needed "there are some muppets out there misusing my trademark, they're scammers and do not deal with them" | [23:52] |
a111: | Logged on 2018-09-24 02:25 asciilifeform: ( whether could have won, or not, whoknows, usg 'court' is approx a bank balance contest. but did not even TRY ) | [23:52] |
mircea_popescu: | make it a toxic item in short order. | [23:52] |
asciilifeform: | ( i specifically foretold , e.g. http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-17#1835536 ) | [23:52] |
a111: | Logged on 2018-07-17 13:00 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-17#1835518 << linus is not immortal, and i expect that he will lose control of kernel -- just as he stupidly lost control of his trademark to 'linux foundation' (y'know, with gavin on staff) -- even before dies | [23:52] |
mircea_popescu: | somewhere someone (lafond maybe ?) explains the problem of "conservative" or "republican" or w/e, johnny cash style pantsuit fucktard, whereby he's "lawyering up" in his mind, and can't curbstomp nigger at first sign of potential disobedience. "oh, he just asked me the time FOR DIFFERENT REASONS ALTOGETHER, this isn't LEGITIMATE REASON to bas his skull in" | [23:53] |
mircea_popescu: | kinda the problem of freebased i-cant-believe-hes-not-republican, or in asciilifeform 's parlance "partizans" : they have some complicated nonsense about "justifiable use of force" bla bla bla, can't simply bash in heads who "did nothing to you" etc. | [23:54] |
Mocky: | BingoBoingo, yeah but even if you could find one of the ~30k marriage age females (among 3.7M pop), and convince her to endure the social downgrade and forgo citizenship for any children, MUST then convince bride's father & suiter then converts to islam! | [23:54] |
BingoBoingo: | Makes the 20 years look easier doesn't it | [23:55] |
asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: i suspect, in these, simple cowardice, they aimt eager to move out of the mental universe where 'law and order' and into the lafond planet where earthly carcass actually finds itself | [23:55] |
Mocky: | lol! | [23:55] |
mircea_popescu: | and they are stubbornly stupid enough so that neither display of the correct behaviour (say in the celebrated http://trilema.com/2014/the-public-burning-of-bob-beck/ ) nor the theoretical explanation of the methodology (at leastr in http://trilema.com/2014/the-logical-impossibility-and-the-moral-untenability-of-forgiveness/ ) clicks with the shit in their heads | [23:55] |
asciilifeform: | i still dun fully grasp the process whereby a theo 'marries' a bobbeck. what's the draw, exactly | [23:56] |
mircea_popescu: | aaanyway, whatever. the wages of sin are death. | [23:57] |
mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform i quoted the ur item here once, i think. was schmuck on "wikipedia admin board" going to "help out" unless "anyone asks him to stop". | [23:57] |
mircea_popescu: | they just show up, you understand ? remember the item which set the moron bit on djb for me ? some "vance" moron ? | [23:57] |
mircea_popescu: | these people simply can not crush a cuntbug. | [23:57] |
mircea_popescu: | exactly for the reason described, "did nothing to me" etc. | [23:58] |
asciilifeform: | and from this, goes to have power of attourney and trademark rights? bit of a climb eh | [23:58] |
mircea_popescu: | heir projected ~expenses against linux~ for their 'service' of 'administering code of conduct' << thjis is all the us ever is anymore. | [23:58] |
mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform hey, they got 20 years to slowly do it. | [23:58] |
mircea_popescu: | but -- yes. the us never had a "leader" other than this sort of scum, slowly worming itself into position. not in the past century, which is to say -- not since it stopped mattering. | [23:59] |
asciilifeform: | reminds of old-school 'grifters', the kind that marry 85yo heiress | [23:59] |
mircea_popescu: | precisely what it is. | [23:59] |
mircea_popescu: | and the principle is so very celebrated there, they even have it enshrined as the ~only basis of senate | [23:59] |
