ben_vulpes: you must be out of your mind.
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: first unrolled design on spartan... and the only one << wait which 'spartan' actually had room for unrolled sha2 ?
asciilifeform refrains from launching into rant re: how you can actually fit 10x more gates in fpga if you start 'cheating' by using secret data re: the internal layout, and how any system which offers this capability is actually telling lies when advertised with its highest-level intended abstractions as the correct ones.

BingoBoingo: Well, old. From the days where scrypt was to many the anti-GPU pill, and delivered BTC ASIC were about a year away
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> decimation kinda what we're trying recently. << oh hey we're paying people nao? who's this "we" and hey jurov what's the story on an addy, eh?
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform's looking for his rocket
asciilifeform doubts we have anything larger than a toy rocket here in this box
asciilifeform: anyone who wants to ride that - is welcome to...
ben_vulpes: *pfhsheeeeew*
ben_vulpes: ah, estes.
ben_vulpes was working on the big engine handling license for a bit
asciilifeform reads the logs and finds the very pertinent unix-on-z80 atrocity
asciilifeform: yes, no shortage of folks willing to ride toy rocket.
ben_vulpes: interesting thing about toy rockets
ben_vulpes: build your own exotica, be exempt from licensensing.
ben_vulpes: licensing*
ben_vulpes: buy exotica via mail order - must have license for such.
asciilifeform: afaik in usa one can even fly an airplane, below (100? kg) in mass, without license
ben_vulpes: this is similar to the canadian firearms protocol, where when during the process of acquisition they ask one to
ben_vulpes: "please list all people with whom you cohabitated or were in a relationship for the last two years so that we can ask them if you're going to go shoot them"
ben_vulpes: nevermind that the sane person will never answer that question in a way useful to the questioner.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: speaking of rockets and small arms, familiar with american invention, 'gyrojet' ?
asciilifeform: tiny rocket, ejected from what amounts to a flare pistol - goes through, e.g., a truck
ben_vulpes: vaguely
ben_vulpes: more interested in mems systems
ben_vulpes: <- hipster
asciilifeform: eh this was a vietnam-era mechanical thing.
ben_vulpes: micro elecro mechanical systems systems
ben_vulpes: i want mems-controlled aero surfaces in my projectiles
ben_vulpes: i am a child of my time
asciilifeform: there's a 'golden toilet' vendor claiming to be churning out the proverbial 'bullet that goes around corners' on precisely this principle
asciilifeform not involved with this
ben_vulpes: i find it hard to believe that corners can be turned with the control forces effected by mems systems
asciilifeform: depends on radius of turn
asciilifeform: (picture a 'question mark' shape. easy to keep turn radius wide if there is room)
ben_vulpes: corners attractive to purchasers in urban combat are unrealistic
ben_vulpes: trajectory tweaks for ballistics or sniper action, though...

ThickAsThieves: good times

mike_c: yeah, we didn't do each other any favors.

ThickAsThieves: i'm not sure we got to learn whether it sucked
ThickAsThieves: but if theres any desire to kill it, it should of course be killed
mike_c: the market (consumers) certainly voted
ThickAsThieves: did consumers know it existed?
mike_c: like any business, some did. and they didn't want to play. many additions/changes were made, with no effect.
ThickAsThieves: yeah it was tricky sell
ThickAsThieves: maybe would be better encompassed in a broader gaming site
mike_c: thing is, if you market a little and get a little, you market more. if you market a little and get nothing..
mike_c: various rounds of improvements & marketing were tried
ThickAsThieves: mike_c youre probably right, but to be annoying, it's also possible your initial set of bettors werent your target market
chetty: frankly I didnt have the patience for it, I played a couple times but kept forgetting to check back
ThickAsThieves: i dont play games
ThickAsThieves: but i tried it
ThickAsThieves: then stopped cuz well of course
ThickAsThieves: probly most of us dont play bitgames
mike_c: i don't know what the right answer is, and I am not a master marketer. but if the games had been more fun there would have been more traction than 0.
chetty: << not much on straight gambling
ThickAsThieves: then my final crit would be that maybe it shouldnt have IPOd at all
mike_c: that is possible
ThickAsThieves: maybe swol can sell it?

ThickAsThieves: it's only fair

mike_c: thanks. them's the breaks.
ThickAsThieves: actually this is a question
ThickAsThieves: is the game not an asset of SWOL's?
mike_c: asset valued at 0, yes.
ThickAsThieves: everything never sold is 0
ThickAsThieves: in that sense
kakobrekla: idk whats up with buttcoins users but my take is that btcusd chumpatroning takes 90%+ of the cake in 'services' category
ThickAsThieves: certainly its value is higher than 0
mike_c: not sure i agree, but say its value is 1 btc. how much would it cost to sell it?

joecool: i had been absent from here for a month or two, it is new
mircea_popescu: ah, its a deed registrar we've been trying to get going since summer. finally punkman made it work.
mircea_popescu: if you look through the logs the spec is a pastebin plastered like a dozen diff places.
nubbins`: ^ text of gpg-signed deed is used as passphrase for brainwallet, address of which is funded with pittance to prove document's existence at a particular point in time
joecool: oh so it has a reference in the blockchain too?
mircea_popescu: nubbins`: punkman i have nfi. like i said, i get different results when i do curl -o vs curl | pbcopy << this sounds like os/x
mircea_popescu: joecool yes.
joecool: pretty cool
mircea_popescu: totally.
mircea_popescu: jurov: *sigh* if s.wol paid out dividends and then immediately vanished, it would be so much easier <<< that's how it will work ?
nubbins`: mircea_popescu funny thing is, pbcopy is the only osx-specific tool, and it's the only one that preserves \n line endings
mircea_popescu: cause it knows it should see ?
mircea_popescu: all the unix stuff is "eh, whatevs"
thestringpuller: pbcopy is really annoying
thestringpuller: got a mac recently...and yea

nubbins`: if you sha256sum the text of that deed, you'll get AF1zMmjkgvSVLM5dmTZH3hqndeHpG1KukwYahkhcSsj6 as a result
nubbins`: that ^ is then used as a brainwallet passphrase to get the public address 14GVvUrtrNvszwKEr9Qnqevmuy3RNHA3yF and its associated private key
assbot: Bitcoin Address 14GVvUrtrNvszwKEr9Qnqevmuy3RNHA3yF

Either way, I wrote up an install_bitcoin script that takes into account dependency issues for certain versoins of debian and ubuntu.. not sure if anyone would find it useful,
PinkPosixPXE: mod6 expressed interest, and I set it up after running into issues on one of my instances, and then tested it across a vagrant+virtualbox testing environment with a few debian and ubuntu distros.
kakobrekla: PinkPosixPXE ditch the bad hobbies
mike_c: sounds like a good addition to wiki.b-a
kakobrekla: wiki , yes, as stan pointed out, needs work.
PinkPosixPXE: yea, I can point out several pages where people complain about hte dependency issues, and so I thought 'well this script would fix them all' then idiots don't go using berklydb/bdb 5.3 or another versoin that isn't wallet or blockchain storage compatible

mike_c: is the company building up cash or paying out most free cash flow in divs?
The20YearIRCloud: RIght now we're looking at changing the div pay to reflect higher re-investment in the company
The20YearIRCloud: Especially since the banks right now are offering us 1:5 leverage for each dollar we put into the loans, and that's pretty hard to refuse.
mike_c: so lowering divs and building up equity
The20YearIRCloud: Divs won't actually go down, they just won't go up
The20YearIRCloud: While equity will increase significantly more
The20YearIRCloud: I'm looking by end of year under current system to be paying out around 10-14btc/month in dividends if we don't change the setup. Our last month's payment was something like 5btc
mike_c: cool. well if you're not issuing more shares who cares what the price is
The20YearIRCloud: I personally don't, it lets me buy more shares. However I know we have some that want to see high dividends
mike_c: well lucky for you they aren't voting shares
The20YearIRCloud: and a mix of high share price & dividend price shows more of a proof-of-concept to investors
fivezerotwo: So we expanded our layer 4 attacking power. Qntra/Trilema, therealbitcoin, bitbet, bitcoin-assets.com... take your pick!
The20YearIRCloud: Even if they were voting shares it wouldn't change much. Our top 3 shareholders whom account for something like 60% of share ownership are all on the board and agree with where we're headed
fivezerotwo: PinkPosi4PXE, Its stupid to reconnect without a cloak
mike_c: great, so keep plugging? you're profitable and don't need more investment. sounds good to me.
The20YearIRCloud: Pretty much
mike_c: congrats.
The20YearIRCloud: The bank's telling us we should be able to loan a little under $1mm with our current margins
nubbins`: <+jurov> the REFERENCES can't be replaced by definition.. why they must be there? <<< heh
mike_c: biggest risk to your business now is probably being associated with havelock.
The20YearIRCloud: And our margins are *quite* healthy considering industry averages
cazalla: fivezerotwo, you never got back to me
fivezerotwo: cazalla, oh yeah
nubbins`: jurov in fact, that REFERENCE should be amended to point to the foundation charter.
The20YearIRCloud: I wouldn't be surprised to see the BOA want to move away in the next year
jurov: ^ too late
mike_c: that would be smart.
jurov: ben_vulpes this deed^

PinkPosixPXE: what a jackass.. with his leet .NET framework skillz
kakobrekla: allow me to recommend you a cloak.
PinkPosixPXE: yea, im already setting one up.. I can flip my ip as often as I like, but I'm setting up ipv6 cloaking
PinkPosixPXE: I also spoke to amazon just in case .. his 'ddos' was pretty weak
nubbins`: i bet it was like 1% of xmas traffic ;/
nubbins`: PinkPosixPXE don't knock .net, where else can you combine c-style code with visual basic in the same executable? :D
PinkPosixPXE: I'm actually in the process of migrating off aws to my beefier vps' with ddos mitigation and the works, but just hadn't done so yet.. didn't know mr. micro penis police was going to decide to pull my pigtails while he sits in his mothers basement..
PinkPosixPXE: I didn't get a calendar invite from him.. ;)
kakobrekla: yes, lets irc get 10gbps lines for our ircing needs
nubbins`: but how will we generate deeds locally and fund the addresses ourselves if deeds.bitcoin-assets.com is down
nubbins`: by using the available tools?!
kakobrekla: paper and pen?
nubbins`: it's as if there's no stopping us ;0
jurov: maybe using asciilifeform's blockchain telegraph?
nubbins`: blockchain ham
PinkPosixPXE: hehe these vps' are for a few other projects as well, but will also meet my irc needs

mircea_popescu: kakobrekla seeing how i didn't pay like 10k for the sauce alone, i somehow doubt there was enough in there then

mircea_popescu: PeterL whatever they feel like, basically.
ben_vulpes: buttcorns again, probably knowing the jackoffs involved.
PeterL: mircea_popescu: have they stated anything they feel like doing yet?
mircea_popescu: i vaguely remember trying to lure testers maybe ?
decimation: so after watching Stierlitz, I surfed the wikipedia describing the NASDP government intelligence 4th department http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gestapo "According to Canadian historian Robert Gellately's analysis of the local offices established, the Gestapo was—for the most part—made up of bureaucrats and clerical workers who depended upon denunciations by citizens for their information.[78] Gellately argued that it was because of
decimation: the widespread willingness of Germans to inform on each other to the Gestapo that Germany between 1933 and 1945 was a prime example of panopticism."
mircea_popescu: lol i like cazalla's pastebin.
mircea_popescu: decimation this is factual.
decimation: so, really all you need to have a 'reign of terror' is to put a 'suggestion box' in front of the secret police office
mircea_popescu: all you need to have a reign of terror is to empower the bottom of the social hierarchy. it never fails.
mircea_popescu: be it the peasants in russia, or the derps in nazi germany, whenever the "common man" is taken from under the foot and put on the table trouble soon follows.
mircea_popescu: the us worked just fine, and definitely better than the entire rest of the world, BEFORE extending the franchise.
assbot: Last 4 lines bashed and pending review. ( http://dpaste.com/22PXEMC.txt )
decimation: yeah, if the NASDP leadership weren't fucktards, they would have put more emphasis on actual intelligence rather than harassing idiots
decimation: mircea_popescu: agreed. as I drive to work, I listen to that french revolution podcast, and they just covered the 'housewife army' that managed to dislodge Louis from Versailles
mircea_popescu: whenever "joe said" is not automatically followed by "oh yea ? and who the fuck is joe ?" the situation is already in the handbasked and moments away from hell.
PinkPosixPXE: 19:46 #bitcoin-assets: <+ben_vulpes> PinkPosixPXE: did the scriptkiddies getcher aws account? << nope
PinkPosixPXE: may be dropped about 10000 packets total, and did nothing as soon as I flipped my ip..
PinkPosixPXE: perhaps they decided going after 1 person wasn't enough for their e-peen-inflation
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: incorporated << neato. now nubbins` can bake tshirts!
mircea_popescu: but everything here is one single person or another.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform lol what, tshirts with the charter ?
asciilifeform: with sumthing.
kakobrekla: how do tshirts help?
asciilifeform: idk, but 10 btc would buy a good fat crate'o'em
mircea_popescu: wait a seccond. is lawsky the reddit supernintendo or the actual supernintendo ?
mircea_popescu: have we been fooled ?!
asciilifeform: 'attacking #bitcoin-assets for their comments on reddit, assault against basic income, and other crap' << l0l!!
asciilifeform: there it is, 'basic income' again
asciilifeform: is that 'a thing' now?
mircea_popescu: what else do you suppose keeps approximately-washed middle aged boys in shared apartments with internet access ?
asciilifeform: i'd dearly love to know. where do i get some.
asciilifeform has to do all kinds of gnarly things for his 'b4s1c 1nc0m3'
PinkPosixPXE: I guess some idiots on reddit have to be scam trolls to get their daily income...
PinkPosixPXE: Then, didn't they like demand 2BTC ?
kakobrekla: idk, but 10 btc would buy a good fat crate'o'em < is this a protest of how unusable btc is to you or ?
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: iirc you invented a way of using
asciilifeform: how long can one run a kakobrekla on 10 btc ?
kakobrekla: sadly i also need to convert to a more acceptable format
kakobrekla: still
decimation: asciilifeform: I recall that you were a proponent of 'guaranteed income'
asciilifeform: decimation: nah, more like guaranteed cloister
cazalla: ignoring the ridicule for having an iphone, i was going to write up this circle app but cannot because there is 2180 results for apps with the name circle and you must install ichunes to use the link to install :\
kakobrekla: asciilifeform and to answer your question, a few months
mircea_popescu: cazalla lol problem solved.
asciilifeform: kakobrekla is clean, environmentally-spiffy engine
mike_c: first off, ridicule! second, how do you run an iphone without itunes anyway?
kakobrekla has optimized his reoccurring costs quite a bit
decimation: asciilifeform: like, if you are unwilling to provide for yourself, the gov't will supply one small stone cell with three gruels per day?
asciilifeform: decimation: where i live, they sorta do this already, but gotta be aryan
cazalla: mike_c, what would i use ichunes with my iphone for?
mike_c: well i don't know what you'd use an iphone for at all. but i thought you needed itunes to install shit on it.
asciilifeform: mike_c: the current pNohe is entirely usable without a computer.
cazalla: mike_c, you can use the appstore and just upload your music, download pics via ftp provided it is broken
mike_c: i guess you can use an iphone to impress the other girls at the party. gotta get a cute cover for it though.
decimation: asciilifeform: in Stierlitz, is it some kind of inside joke when they go through the 'personnel file' of every high ranking Nazi and they all say exactly the same thing?
asciilifeform: decimation: aha.
asciilifeform: decimation: idea is, you can't play unless 'aryan, good nordic character'
asciilifeform: decimation: so clearly, if you're in the game, that's you.
asciilifeform: decimation: notice, 'baron von stierlitz' has the same in his file.
decimation: of course. I feel like I started halfway in though, they keep mentioning his earlier exploits with V weapons and I seem to have missed that
cazalla: mike_c, i thought it was the girls that like to impress with their phone, blinged up cases and all
mike_c: yes, the key to the joke was "the other girls"
asciilifeform: stone cell with three gruels << notice a peculiar fact about various 'advanced' bezzlatron nations where one can get a nice flat and three fine restaurant meals a day. but, for some reason, the occupants of said flats are not coughing up any great advances in sciences, arts.
asciilifeform: ergo, the sponsors are selective about who gets the cell and three gruels. in a very particular way.
cazalla: mike_c, matters not, sporting an old phone will just get you labelled as a hipster because the 3310 is vintage yo
asciilifeform: (only exception i know of re: 'not coughing up' was j. k. rowling, author of the children's book 'harry potter.' i wonder if they billed her for the pension retroactively...)
mike_c: certainly works in brooklyn
asciilifeform: i suppose ed limonov might be another exception.
decimation: either those who are rich in bezzlars are sitting on their brilliant inventions or the method by which one comes to hold bezzlars has little to do with productive activity
decimation: of course, there is the 'george boole' problem, as you point out in the comments
asciilifeform: neh, the thread was, in some parts of the world one can get the 'three gruels and a cell', but very few of the folks subscribed have shat out anything worth talking about
decimation: asciilifeform: it is an odd fact that most 'upright' folks in the us would prefer to starve rather than depend on welfare, yet the same folks view their mortgage deductions as a birthright
asciilifeform: decimation: outside of usa, there are misconceptions. it isn't like anyone can just go and sign up for 'welfare.'
asciilifeform: if you aren't in the target demographics (not purely 'ethnic', but approximately for most purposes) it may as well be 'macarthur grant' or nobel, for all you'll ever see of it
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> wait a seccond. is lawsky the reddit supernintendo or the actual supernintendo ? << scam, he's just one of those rpi based emulators made the chicoms
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> one can get a nice flat and three fine meals [...] not coughing up any great advances in arts. <<< yes, they are.
mircea_popescu: cocksucking's an art too you know.
asciilifeform: and afaik, most of 'homo redditicus' is not living from government pensions, but from relatives
mircea_popescu: and where do the relatives get it ?
asciilifeform: same place i get it.
mircea_popescu: from tax breaks to deferring of college debt, it's all a gift.
BingoBoingo: <cazalla> ignoring the ridicule for having an iphone, i was going to write up this circle app but cannot because there is 2180 results for apps with the name circle and you must install ichunes to use the link to install :\ << sounds like a review in itself
asciilifeform: the tax breaks mostly subsidize playing in chumpatrons like real estate
mircea_popescu: now to the massive task of documenting this deedsbot thing.
asciilifeform: (e.g., the 2k i pay landlord is 100% tax-free income for him)
kakobrekla: jebus 2k rent?
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: aha.
kakobrekla: srsly.
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: 'cheap' too.
kakobrekla: unserious
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: Seriously plausible for a US coast.
decimation: yeah in ascii's area $2k for a house is cheap
mike_c: significantly cheaper than mine..
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu has it right re: the massive bezzle gifts, but notice that these aren't really handouts to the plebes - they only get to touch the money and feel warm inside for a few seconds, then they have to give it directly to real estate chumpmeisters or college racket
mircea_popescu: well of course.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla unlike europe, the us is very poorly developed.
mircea_popescu: not even kidding. you know that thing where you can't walk for 50 miles without ending up in a town, nor 10 miles without crossing a road ?
mircea_popescu: well... they ain't got that.
asciilifeform: the 2k does not include other bezzles. e.g., auto, without which it is flatly impossible to buy edibles much less earn anything
asciilifeform: and various insurances.
decimation: asciilifeform: I added all this up once, and came to the conclusion that every single person in the washington DC area must have an income of >$100k
decimation: which didn't seem right
mircea_popescu: punkbot list deedsystem
mircea_popescu: what is this supposed to do ?
asciilifeform: decimation: every 'burgher' (see mircea_popescu's essay on the subject) - exactly right
asciilifeform: but there are several categories of inhabitant who don't need money at all
asciilifeform: unfortunately those categories are almost entirely membership-by-birth.
decimation: regarding birth, the ironic thing about wash dc is that the majority of these 'burghers' are holding gov't jobs, which are more-or-less sinecures for life
decimation: meanwhile they have kids, who also need to eat
decimation: those kids being the exact objects which the real estate/job-for-life chumpatrons must devour to sustain themselves
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> not even kidding. you know that thing where you can't walk for 50 miles without ending up in a town, nor 10 miles without crossing a road ? << True story, did that.
cazalla: beat you to it, scoopbot
mircea_popescu: o nice, scoopbot.
BingoBoingo: scooptbot request n00dz
decimation: lol so the wall street journal op-ed is where one makes usg policy now?
BingoBoingo: decimation: No, it's where USG policy used to be made
asciilifeform: decimation: government jobs << in usa, everyone - at least, within a few steps of recursion - has a government job.
asciilifeform: (see the canonical piece by 'last psychiatrics' re: one town where this was demonstrable to the naked eye.)
decimation: yeah, in the wash dc area it's just a little flatter I guess
asciilifeform: that is, either works for usg, works for entity funded by usg, or works for a humble physical service (e.g. restaurant, plumber's shop) that is frequented by 1 and 2
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 41888 @ 0.00072794 = 30.492 BTC [-] {5}
asciilifeform: if you're a potato monger in idaho - usg funded.
asciilifeform: even if you only sell for gold dubloons and have never heard of farm subsidy.
decimation: of course 99% of farmers prefer to receive usg electronic transfers directly to their accounts
asciilifeform: but the point here is, the most humble tomato peddler at my local market - still usg funded.
decimation: yeah, this is true
decimation: for instance, he's still going to have to sell some gold to pay his land tax in dollars
asciilifeform: (it blew my mind the other week when i noticed that these were being paid, by many folks in the crowd, with... something quite like actual monopoly money. issued by the state, it turned out, 'vegetable food stamps.' presumably these are redeemable for usd in some dark cellar at city hall.)
decimation: that fellow who lived under a stump or whatever might claim to be somewhat independent, but really he's just taking advantage of usg's lack landlordship
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nope, they're not.
decimation: no ascii that's EBT
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ?
mircea_popescu: they're not redeemable for usd.
asciilifeform: wai wat
asciilifeform: what're they redeemable for? veggies at neighbouring tables?
asciilifeform: arse-mouth system?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform tax receipts mostly.
mircea_popescu: you can't go plunk down a pile of em and get dollars in exchange.
mircea_popescu: you can't sell them to a guy down the street
mircea_popescu: you recall when california paid its suppliers in ious
mircea_popescu: then REFUSED to take the same in exchange for tax receipts ?
mircea_popescu: the only innovation there is refusing to take them in exchange for the only thing they used to be good for.

asciilifeform: but in reality, the place is a miniature r&d laboratory for usg bezzlatronics.
decimation: mircea_popescu: I've heard it's common practice to buy 'qualified' goods and sell on ebay for usd

assbot: Court Order: BFL to transfer Bitcoins to Court | Qntra.net
joecool: lol at the AKA's
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla doubtful anything's left, fgor a year now
decimation: I like how one arm of USG is threating anyone who has touched a bitcoin, while the other arm claims that they could not possibly investigate welfare fraud
mircea_popescu: welfare fraud is good.
asciilifeform: ' The order also gives the receiver authorization to convert the bitcoins "to cash on a systematic and reasoned basis."' << brace for waterfall.
kakobrekla: i have enough of this waterboarding :p
decimation: well, welfare fraud definitely serves some purpose, otherwise usg would 'investigate' it
mircea_popescu: decimation lemme illustrate the point with a humorous story.
assbot: Massanutten. Water slides, mini-golf and bears.
mircea_popescu: the part where he says "Regardless of whether you waive the fine or not, and despite conditional terms added to reassert authority"
assbot: The #bitcoin-assets deed system pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
mircea_popescu: just as long as you agree to move your sustenance to stealing from the government, the government won.
mircea_popescu: you're still depending on it, whether you like it or not.
mircea_popescu: it doesn't care if you fight "for" or "against" it, just as long as your fight is ~about~ it.
mircea_popescu: on it goes.
mircea_popescu: there's a good reason http://trilema.com/2014/how-to-deal-with-pseudoscience/ comes up with "ignore it" not with "debunk it" or "use it" or w/e else.
decimation: lol I've stayed at massanutten
asciilifeform 'private key for the confirmatory transaction' << misread as 'the crematory transaction'
decimation: massanutten is kind of a weird retirement area/resort for the wash dc area
decimation: for people who are not creative enough to find a more amusing place to live than a hill in rural Virginia
decimation: lol "That looks like a dog with a blanket on it. I'm not going to waste anyones time sending an officer out to check that. "
decimation: this guy is strong with the art of troll
asciilifeform: "ignore it" not with "debunk it" or "use it" << ignoring herr lysenko is best done from across an ocean.
asciilifeform: although even this no longer suffices.
asciilifeform: seems like they don't make oceans wide enough, any more.
decimation: so the anarcho-tyranny that 'upstanding citizens' complain about is really just two sides of the same customer service counter
decimation: the stick, for those who are willing to yield, the carrot for those who are willing to eat
mircea_popescu: people generally are slaves. this holds true irrespective of what the fashionable slavegarb is at any point.
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> "ignore it" not with "debunk it" or "use it" << ignoring herr lysenko is best done from across an ocean. << the internet is an ocean.
