ben_vulpes: p intuitive too like other floppings
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes im sure they're fine. it's not like it's some sort of magical art. eight steps.
ben_vulpes: (but hey, i'm enjoying the new instruction on flopping around with babes)
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i can't speak as to the quality of instruction or the milongas, but there's some sort of hustle involving procuring dollars in portland during the rainy season down south and then going down south to dance for the other six months
ben_vulpes: you can spot them by the hand-patched vests and "sports jackets" in combination with the furry tails carabeenered onto their belt loops
ben_vulpes: yeah but a dude who has his whole identity tied up in it - what is he after the party?
ben_vulpes: cheaper than kibble, and good for the local air flavor
mircea_popescu: <ben_vulpes> doesn't imply lots of slapping tho << from what i hear the way to educate them is to place them in the door and slam the door on em. that way they chew on the door. rather than on your intestines, while you sleep.
thestringpuller: because she's good in the sack
mircea_popescu: well... fine... so order granted then, why'd you want to be in contact ?!
thestringpuller: the cure for a hang over is more drinking
gribble: The operation succeeded.
cazalla: well i'm blotto'd so you know, not too quick on the wit at 430am after drinking
mircea_popescu: cazalla: the minute some old fuck dies around here, their house is torn down and 6 more managed to fit where it once stood << haha. same across teh bezzleworld. and they cost 10x each, and no inflation since 1929.
cazalla: thestringpuller, i'm from the sticks and i told you before i was australia's biggest dealer of celeron 300A's
cazalla: the woman!
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: ya innit the truth
cazalla: i knew a guy who thought he had one of those types of women.. they actually did a rob a bank and you know who gave them all up?
ben_vulpes: lotto play, thestringpuller.
thestringpuller: ben_vulpes: but thats the dream tho
mircea_popescu: i have one of those. i also have one that shoots people in the face. variety is always best!
thestringpuller: Wives who keep husbands secrets to the grave are honorable creatures in my book.
cazalla: thestringpuller, you can avoid that by not telling her shit
cazalla: thestringpuller is a softie i hear
ben_vulpes: thestringpuller: oh i di?
cazalla: thestringpuller, well you know, what ya gonna do, actually do atheletics and swim at the atheletics and swimming carnival? i think not
mircea_popescu: the slut!
thestringpuller: good description cazalla love the imagery
cazalla: and she did this to others too mind you
cazalla: ben_vulpes, she slapped me about in front of friends.. keep in mind, only 13 at the time, she had no shame at all and clearly was sexually exciting for her
cazalla: i've looked but she seems to have disappear after all these years
mircea_popescu: and there she is.
thestringpuller: seems like there is sub/domme in every sexual relationship.
cazalla: because that is what i am suspect of all of them
mircea_popescu: arguably this is no longer the case.
mircea_popescu: but yes historically male gay pretty much meant leather which pretty much meant d/s stuff.
TomServo: George also takes a pencil to the party because he thinks there will be a lot of dentists there and he wants to ask if they can compare the teeth marks on a pencil he found in the Jon Voight car to see if he really was the previous owner.
cazalla: well my old man tried to convince me to go to his dentist instead of the one i go to, root canal plus crown would've been 3 visits, cheaper overall but still who knows
mircea_popescu: problem with not so greatly fittign crowns being they can't cut the crown so usually have to cut the opposing teeth. not so great.
cazalla: but all in one day, spiffy 3d printing type machine for the crown too, was pretty sweet how it cut away the block and made the crown fit perfect
mircea_popescu: girl examines me, and says... well... you're ok. some work in there but it's all fine, see you later.
mircea_popescu: so i go to dentist, where one of the girls goes (she's had a bunch of root canals and other work done out of 100 bux)
mircea_popescu: i dun recall if i recounted this, but i had the shock of all time here in argentina.
jurov: he'll make people to buy it themselves under "pension insurance" disguise

mircea_popescu: half the time he'd have to make the parents interact with the kid at least minimally,
mircea_popescu: jurov yeah, back in romania i had a pedo friend (kiddie doctor = pediatru in romanian, so obviously that's the joke) who mostly did mental health
cazalla: jurov, he's always near, we're both always home, just the idea of holding him to sleep is far and beyond what he needs
jurov: i suppose it's different between parents rocking the children all the way to coma and just keeping them near
mircea_popescu: course, not the thing to get into halfheartedly. definitely not.
mircea_popescu: i meant it metaphorically... but i guess cane & freshly cut ginger's not the worst way to do it.
mircea_popescu: like a grand old wine cask. once the thin surface of stupid's breached, it flows.
mircea_popescu: cazalla they're fine, just need to get pegged.
mircea_popescu: jurov: idk, have it on your knees or such << there can be too much of a good thing. overhandled children develop something that looks quite like autism.
mircea_popescu: usually penned for use by aging wall street execs and other limpydicks.
mircea_popescu: the genuine article doth exist
mircea_popescu: cazalla there's actually a lot of demand for real/natural domme. which is part of what makes me chuckle at all the "oh, women are oppressed majority" talk.
mircea_popescu: cazalla while the actual domme is rare (most have a guy they sub to, publicly admitted or not) i dun imagine this is a very productive scamping model.
cazalla: like brock pierece eh, poor cunt ended up at the bitcoin foundation
mircea_popescu: sort-of like child actors, child millionaires, child prostitutes and all other manner of child-adultjob.
mircea_popescu: TomServo turns out kid soldiers do best if they die pre pubescence. latr life doesn't really work out for them all that often.
cazalla: can't help but think these dom women are actually subs and i'm gonna get ganked wow rogue stylez, pick pocketed and backstabbed

xanthyos: pain can be ignored most of the time now

jurov: interesting. you were 8 when the wall fell, no?
mircea_popescu: it's really shocking how stupid/clueless modern teenagers are as compared to what i used to fuck prior to the berlin wall falling. pretty much every basic point has to be re-established.
mircea_popescu: jurov lol no fucking way, the stranded dog's name actually is kako ?!
mircea_popescu: cazalla eh, never "accept blame for all things desipite otherwise". it's the worst way to die.
mircea_popescu: AaronvanW you're on the right path , at any rate. prolly start your research in the logs
cazalla: to quote the matrix "Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony."
Vexual: hey, be nice to your mother
cazalla: fucking cunt, i extend olive branch and willing to accept blame for all things despite otherwise in case i did keel over and die, fucking cunt slapped my hand away, now pays for that
cazalla: but then big fall out, he ignores me for 3 years despite my thinking i would die 2 years ago, continued to ignore me and as a result only finds bitcoin 6 months ago when we start talking again, now only has a few bitcoin to rub together, much satisifaction
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla i think if i had brothers that young i might have even liked 'em.
kakobrekla: cant really discuss anything with them!
kakobrekla: my brothers are both 20 years+ younger than me
cazalla: why bother, i have this discussion with my brother many times, toss him rope to pull to safety yet determined to tie a noose and wrap around neck and yet cry save me yet again
kakobrekla: well one of the idiots that i gave trezor to still kept the coins on bitstamp until after the hack
jurov: kakobrekla heh guess who did the (ofted defunct) mytrezor.com stuff?
kakobrekla: well tbh im not, just making a note since they arent in 'wot'.

mircea_popescu: four dollars and fifty cents, for distinction has its charm in Nevada as well as elsewhere, and there were plenty of patriotic souls out of employment; but to get a legislative hall for them to meet in was another matter altogether. Carson blandly declined to give a room rent-free, or let one to the government on credit.
mircea_popescu: There is something solemnly funny about the struggles of a new-born Territorial government to get a start in this world. Ours had a trying time of it. The Organic Act and the "instructions" from the State Department commanded that a legislature should be elected at such-and- such a time, and its sittings inaugurated at such-and-such a date. It was easy to get legislators, even at three dollars a day, although board was

It was not even worth pluckingexcept by the smallest of small fry office-seekers and such. Everybody knew that Congress had appropriated only twenty thousand dollars a year in greenbacks for its supportabout money enough to run a quartz mill a month. And everybody knew, also, that the first year's money

mircea_popescu: (and yes ftr /me is nonplussed with the idiotic idea of ambiguously calling everythning "plus". it creates the sort of idiots that imagines they can do statistics work because they can add integers on their fingers)
mircea_popescu: then it can still be called "mein kampf"
asciilifeform: then i can finally write 'mein kampf.'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you're not going to die man. at the very most, you'll be set in a room for 30 years' stretch. at a time where you're old enough to not really miss women so much anymore, and old enough to really appreciate the stability of 3 regular, predictable meals a day.
ben_vulpes can't hear anything over the sound of brain fabric ripping

mircea_popescu: as opposed to misguided efforts at "let's bloat everything with more of the same stupid"
asciilifeform: and was already an accomplished hater of the language.
ben_vulpes is still hung on the CKeyStore coercion
ben_vulpes: my problem with the bitcoin codebase is not cpp (that's just another language), but the insane class hierarchies i have to hold in my head
ben_vulpes: no, i understand the this pointer. what i'm failing to understand is how the reference to the object from which SignSignature is called can in any way be coerced to a CKeyStore
ben_vulpes: i'm still not understanding how the *this argument (which looks like a bool?!) is turning into a CKeyStore
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: yeah, that's the current version
asciilifeform: i may have linked to the current turd instead of 0.5.3
ben_vulpes: so that's two exported versions of the same function that are "polymorphic" as i understand the term on argument types?
mircea_popescu: are the first 2 defaults ?
ben_vulpes: the first of which doesn't even seem to be a keystore

ben_vulpes: explains why so many sages under whom i've labored have been all about the perl
asciilifeform: not mentioned for the same reason sky being blue is rarely mentioned - abundantly clear that an atrocity like perl had to offer a mega-win to catch on (and it did genuinely, organically catch on)
mod6: back in the day, you had to really know the differences in syntax between sh, bash, ksh, csh, tcsh, zsh etc. It was such a headache. Then along comes perl...
