(trilema) nubbins`: whenever someone claims "the bible says x" and they don't speak greek or hebrew, it's actually okay to hit them in the face
(trilema) nubbins`: you're exempt!
(trilema) nubbins`: nothing lulzier than people talking about the bible as it's translated into English
(trilema) nubbins`: anyway, work to do!
(trilema) nubbins`: ah, my sides.
(trilema) nubbins`: mircea_popescu he'll certainly be allowed to get hurt if he shows up to this race
(trilema) nubbins`: nevermind that seasoned runners will train 8 months for a marathon
(trilema) nubbins`: so he's gonna do two back-to-back
(trilema) nubbins`: seriously. a regular marathon isn't big enough
(trilema) nubbins`: by dying on the road
(trilema) nubbins`: "I'm just trying to shed some positive light on Bitcoin"
(trilema) nubbins`: at least he's not trying to start an exchange
(trilema) nubbins`: literally, he will cripple himself before the first 10k is up
(trilema) nubbins`: your body would break down
(trilema) nubbins`: that's 80 fucking kilometers
(trilema) nubbins`: i can't even express the amount of fail on display here
(trilema) nubbins`: "I know it's it going to suck. I know it's going to hurt. And I know it won't be easy. But, that's why I want to do it."
(trilema) nubbins`: fifty miles. without training.

(trilema) nubbins`: ;;seen ukyo
(trilema) nubbins`: been getting all these emails saying my orders are on hold ;(
(trilema) nubbins`: man. so i ordered a bunch of supplies on wednesday. put my debit card number into three different websites instead of my credit card number
(trilema) nubbins`: yes!!
(trilema) nubbins`: pick the correct one and gain access
(trilema) nubbins`: "they're there their" in three images, with a sentence underneath
(trilema) nubbins`: i saw this proposed as a captcha replacement once
(trilema) nubbins`: bigshot who doesn't read books, apparently
(trilema) nubbins`: mircea_popescu i stopped reading at "your statement's so far"
(trilema) nubbins`: the snake one is, yes
(trilema) nubbins`: like a snake eating its tail but instead of a snake it's a man and instead of a tail it's a dick
(trilema) nubbins`: death to banks, long live bankesque things
(trilema) nubbins`: mircea_popescu: that's almost poetic
(trilema) nubbins`: and had myself another lel.
(trilema) nubbins`: man, i just came across my ebay tab, opened to the "mining contracts" category
(trilema) nubbins`: hey, i'm D.D., this is K.A.
(trilema) nubbins`: men with initials for names
(trilema) nubbins`: http://vimeo.com/63242867 for great lels

(trilema) nubbins` nods
(trilema) nubbins`: amusingly, google image search for "monsterbator" is turning into a pink eye portfolio
(trilema) nubbins`: didn't wanna force it ;p
(trilema) nubbins`: mircea_popescu i srsly considered adding big fat penises to the poster
(trilema) nubbins`: fuck this, time for bed
(trilema) nubbins`: came with a printer
(trilema) nubbins`: FREE tiny piece of photo paper
(trilema) nubbins`: not the end of the world, but still a bummer
(trilema) nubbins`: MisterE, http://imgur.com/DZgppgv
(trilema) nubbins`: >:(
(trilema) nubbins`: fuck, popped a screen
(trilema) nubbins`: "mining contracts"
(trilema) nubbins`: god help us
(trilema) nubbins`: because she's a figurehead with no real authority? ;(
(trilema) nubbins`: we share a queen
(trilema) nubbins`: ahhhhh
(trilema) nubbins`: what!
(trilema) nubbins`: you americans are so angry
(trilema) nubbins`: i don't have the stats in front of me, but probably like a week ago
(trilema) nubbins`: shrug, we had daily swarmings at my high school. all white kids
(trilema) nubbins`: BingoBoingo: here's what the drawing is loosely based on: http://imgur.com/ZSS1Eps
(trilema) nubbins`: oh ya?
(trilema) nubbins`: i much prefer to torture myself trying to produce perfect floods. even the noise on the yellow is a bit out of character for me
(trilema) nubbins`: too many screenprinters use it as a crutch to disguise poor technique
(trilema) nubbins`: ehhhhhhh, i'm not huge on the "messy" aesthetic
(trilema) nubbins`: anyway i gotta get these films printed and burn some screens
(trilema) nubbins`: yep, uline sells rolls of it
(trilema) nubbins`: i think you'd need special inks tho
(trilema) nubbins`: y'know, i've toyed with the idea of doing posters on tyvek
(trilema) nubbins`: nothin' like a rush job
(trilema) nubbins`: we do a lotta work for these guys... they got in touch TODAY asking if we could do 40 shirts and 30 posters for sat night
(trilema) nubbins`: and that's that!
(trilema) nubbins`: 50lb red kraft paper
(trilema) nubbins`: NO DICE
(trilema) nubbins`: heh
(trilema) nubbins`: it's time for Ineffectual Poster Critique, where you offer constructive criticism on a poster i've designed and i ignore your suggestions because it's late and i'm tired
(trilema) nubbins`: hey kids
(trilema) nubbins` claps
(trilema) nubbins`: kakobrekla no kidding, ever see notation for making a pair of gloves?!
(trilema) nubbins`: ;;google propency
(trilema) nubbins`: html, while not a programming language, can be just as frustrating
(trilema) nubbins`: heh
(trilema) nubbins`: wait
(trilema) nubbins`: jurov they did it in outer space
(trilema) nubbins`: haha
(trilema) nubbins`: nod
(trilema) nubbins`: so i'm googling the name of a zine, i get "a whale" typed in, and autosuggest says "adopt a whale and kill it"
(trilema) nubbins`: quick, cash out
(trilema) nubbins`: fuck this, i'm getting drunk and listening to blood on the tracks
(trilema) nubbins`: heh, good find
(trilema) nubbins`: imagine the unfiltered version
(trilema) nubbins`: let alone something that gets cummed out every time you quit irc
(trilema) nubbins`: not even a good one-off quip
(trilema) nubbins`: ehhh
(trilema) nubbins`: MUDDER I'M STUCK
(trilema) nubbins`: if you wanna hear a thick newfoundland accent, that's as good a place as any to start
(trilema) nubbins`: ^ apparently this has caused quite the international stir
(trilema) nubbins`: ;;google jumpin jesus tonight
(trilema) nubbins` cackles
(trilema) nubbins`: Mats_cd03 is that because it's the size of a stack of dimes?
(trilema) nubbins`: might as well take it to brass tacks
(trilema) nubbins`: the root of money is the root of all evil
(trilema) nubbins`: nah
(trilema) nubbins`: libya!
(trilema) nubbins`: ;;google .ly tld
(trilema) nubbins`: doesn't quite matter how good your left hook is, y'know?
(trilema) nubbins`: pankkake mostly because they realized they were trying to box the wind
(trilema) nubbins`: that said, who cares what TLD is used
(trilema) nubbins`: bounce: it's a .us domain, they can do what they want with it :P
(trilema) nubbins`: ^^^
(trilema) nubbins`: still standing 11 years later
(trilema) nubbins`: i mean, look at the pirate bay. most reviled website in history
(trilema) nubbins`: tbh seizing domains is such a non-problem
(trilema) nubbins`: mircea_popescu stop stealing answers ;(
(trilema) nubbins`: mircea_popescu "if you don't have enough toilet paper feel free to use the barrel of this rifle"
(trilema) nubbins`: pLambert: so mp gets rendered, bitbet.us shows a DoJ logo. what now?
(trilema) nubbins`: all childs left behind
(trilema) nubbins`: had to teach myself, essentially from scratch
(trilema) nubbins`: mircea_popescu trying things isn't required. i have a CS degree even though i only made two working programs during the course of my degree
(trilema) nubbins`: conversely, if not mpoe, why not bitbet?
(trilema) nubbins`: mircea_popescu the true horror of this situation won't be realized for another few decades
(trilema) nubbins`: namely that bitbet would continue to function
(trilema) nubbins`: well you're making some assumptions there
(trilema) nubbins`: pLambert expound plz
(trilema) nubbins`: heh.
(trilema) nubbins`: i'm being diplomatic ;D
(trilema) nubbins`: pLambert: also, the btctalk crowd who would love to see MP extradited also probably would never send a single satoshi to bitbet, purely on principle
(trilema) nubbins`: someone could just put 100btc on yes and then fly to russia and beat the shit out of them
(trilema) nubbins`: pLambert ah, too true
(trilema) nubbins`: bunch of cossacks whipped them with knotted ropes
(trilema) nubbins`: TomServo yes
(trilema) nubbins`: pLambert "Consider submitting with substantial paid wager" is a common rejection reason. not sure if there's a cut-and-dry minimum, but i've seen bets with 0.0x btc on either side
(trilema) nubbins`: heh
(trilema) nubbins`: what was your bet?
(trilema) nubbins`: depends
(trilema) nubbins`: st. john's being a city of less than 200k people, two of the jurors were excused because their sons played soccer with the prosecutor's son
(trilema) nubbins`: "no b'y i gotta work"
(trilema) nubbins`: it was fun seeing people trying to get out of jury duty
(trilema) nubbins`: selection process was interesting. domestic assault trial, defendant turned away every female juror until his limit was up
(trilema) nubbins`: i was an alternate juror once, never ended up being needed
(trilema) nubbins`: here in newfoundland, every corner store and gas station sells beer, but no wine/booze
(trilema) nubbins`: altho this varies by province. quebec famously sells wine in gas stations
(trilema) nubbins`: generally you only see booze and groceries in the same store when you visit rural areas
(trilema) nubbins`: ...now that's a link
(trilema) nubbins`: https://www.google.ca/maps/place/Sobeys/@47.567024,-52.716654,2a,90y,90t/data=!3m5!1e2!3m3!1shttps:%2F%2Flh3.googleusercontent.com%2F-ybKcOwZQd1I%2FUlP3czrACGI%2FAAAAAAAAAio%2Fn56IgQQyHPQ%2Fs203%2F2013-10-08!2e4!3e12!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0xdc3cfa9c288b7d43!6m1!1e1
(trilema) nubbins`: mircea_popescu more common here is to have a full liquor store attached to the grocery store
(trilema) nubbins`: things you don't see here
(trilema) nubbins`: booze in the grocery store
(trilema) nubbins`: asciilifeform that's the one song name i remember
(trilema) nubbins`: entire discog available in every karaoke room
(trilema) nubbins`: not sure, very popular in korea when i was there

(trilema) nubbins`: was always curious about the serrated edge
(trilema) nubbins`: it was called a "camping shovel"
(trilema) nubbins`: i have one of those
(trilema) nubbins`: that's a sapper's spade?
(trilema) nubbins` blinks
(trilema) nubbins` cackles
(trilema) nubbins`: convinced the asshole donators to take 'em back
(trilema) nubbins`: aha! so remember those shit plastisol inks that were "donated" to us, and were unusable, and the dump wouldn't take?
(trilema) nubbins`: "we can afford to do this for a couple of weeks"
(trilema) nubbins`: "let's open an office with neon signs and track lighting and wood panelling and GLASS EVERYWHERE"
(trilema) nubbins` genuinely applauds alf
(trilema) nubbins`: even now, it's minimum wage for billable hours only
(trilema) nubbins`: pink eye didn't pay out a dime in wages for our first 2 years
(trilema) nubbins`: as owner of a small business, i'm amused by how eager most "companies" in this space are to spend money
(trilema) nubbins`: imagine, startups that are more interested in making things than drawing a fat paycheque
(trilema) nubbins`: was just gonna say, nsa/mg are the only btc corps i can think of that didn't immediately blow their fuckin wad on salaries
(trilema) nubbins`: or something
(trilema) nubbins`: asciilifeform the general consensus is that btc flowed from "investors" through tat to neo to cypriot advertisers who kicked back to neo
(trilema) nubbins`: pankkake so does this mean they're offering refunds...?
(trilema) nubbins`: the first time i saw pan's labyrinth was spanish audio with korean subtitles
(trilema) nubbins`: there's something nice about watching a movie in a language you don't understand, though
(trilema) nubbins`: skeksis are still fucking badass
(trilema) nubbins`: mike_c yeah
(trilema) nubbins`: the dark crystal vs the mask
(trilema) nubbins`: the scattered one, yes
(trilema) nubbins`: this is why i don't re-watch movies i enjoyed as a kid
(trilema) nubbins`: classy
(trilema) nubbins`: all-black packaging plz
(trilema) nubbins`: "do not insert genitals into blender"
(trilema) nubbins`: marsellus popescuus
(trilema) nubbins`: lel
(trilema) nubbins`: well, y'know kids these days. nice packaging + a couple of "unboxing videos" = more sales
(trilema) nubbins`: have you guys figured out packaging/documentation/instructions/etc for these little beasts yet?
(trilema) nubbins`: i can only imagine what lies beneath the sticker
(trilema) nubbins`: sexy boards
(trilema) nubbins`: generally this is unknowable so it's been a while since i bought anything new
(trilema) nubbins`: i base my tech purchases on the amount of pee being held in by the people making the item in question
(trilema) nubbins`: hm, considering making a bet about whether HIF will pay a dividend on schedule
(trilema) nubbins`: "AUU MAI GAUUEDDDD AIIM SUCH A FLUUUURRRT"

(trilema) nubbins`: speaking of cute, my wife bought a pair of these insane leggings:
(trilema) nubbins`: oh, shit, we're going for "cute"
(trilema) nubbins`: altho TBF if you're not naturally confident, faking it ain't gonna work
(trilema) nubbins`: keep #2, throw out the rest
(trilema) nubbins`: heh
(trilema) nubbins`: i came across one of these a while ago: http://www.zwiggystradetokens.com/1983-st-johns-trade-token-gilbert-dollar-p-1219.html
(trilema) nubbins`: i feel like i should post a link from an alarmist end-of-times website to fit in
(trilema) nubbins`: "DID YOUR CITY JUST DUMP THE DOLLAR?"
(trilema) nubbins`: "nonono i totally have a dozen eggs, just come back tomorrow"
(trilema) nubbins`: cat is running a fractional reserve
(trilema) nubbins`: heh.
(trilema) nubbins`: mircea_popescu: how else am i supposed to beguile the ladies?
(trilema) nubbins`: thestringpuller: "What is replacing the dollar in these U.S. cities and companies? Watch this fuckin video to find out because we can't be bothered to just tell you"
(trilema) nubbins`: bummer, huh?
(trilema) nubbins`: rithm it is
(trilema) nubbins`: it's amazing how quickly a society forgets
(trilema) nubbins`: yup.
(trilema) nubbins`: modern dum-dums read this and say "lel what are you worried about"
(trilema) nubbins`: etc
(trilema) nubbins`: "plant a garden" / "eat local food" / "store long-term food supplies"
(trilema) nubbins`: anyway the funny thing about these "sheeple" / "SHTF" websites is that they offer advice that would have been perceived as obvious and sensible a generation or two ago
(trilema) nubbins`: "maybe if we give EVERYONE a job toting a rifle around a grocery store..."
(trilema) nubbins`: "Food Minister Felix Osorio said the process was off to a smooth start. He says the system will sound an alarm when it detects suspicious purchasing patterns, ensuring that less-than-honest customers will be beaten to death by the angry mob that surrounds them"
(trilema) nubbins`: "the daily sheeple" -- almost as cringe-worthy as the Frank & Oak ads
(trilema) nubbins`: anyway, just pointing out the name of the website that article is posted on
(trilema) nubbins`: you're not a hoarder, you're a nervous buyer.
(trilema) nubbins`: ^ pretty lucid
(trilema) nubbins`: "People who go shopping every day hurt us all"
(trilema) nubbins`: straight troll now ;(
(trilema) nubbins`: stenography shorthand, fascinating
(trilema) nubbins`: for shame
(trilema) nubbins`: "Strike those comments from the record!" / "rewind the tape 30 seconds!"
(trilema) nubbins`: always wondered why they don't keep voice recordings
(trilema) nubbins`: only lasts a second or two
(trilema) nubbins`: there's this brief whiff of co2-heavy air that comes out
(trilema) nubbins`: one of the nicest smells is just after you finish grinding coffee beans
(trilema) nubbins`: heh
(trilema) nubbins`: i'm going to suggest charcoal grey instead of black
(trilema) nubbins`: but this order, they're asking for 20 mediums in a 50-shirt order
