jhvh1: shinohai: The operation succeeded.
shinohai: You know mircea_popescu with this recent spate of pictures of girls holding red cups you have posted, it's probably gonna start eliciting a Pavlovian response in me.
mircea_popescu: red cups are for public nudity!
shinohai sudden;y wants to hold a facesitting competition.
mircea_popescu: lol you like teh pusstard ?
mircea_popescu: hmm i suppose that didn't come out quite right. you know, pusstard as in pussy custard.
mircea_popescu: like a pie.
shinohai: I'm not picky.

jhvh1: shinohai: The operation succeeded.
mircea_popescu blames teh red cups
shinohai: I have a sleeve of those in my kitchen. I should set up a vodka and lemonade stand outside my apartment and see what happens.
mircea_popescu: bitchez today be cray, man. i tried to take one out for icecream and she wouldn't come because she has to prepare for burlesque show on friday.
shinohai: Is there good ice cream in Argentina? Here everything tastes artificial ... I prefer to make my own.
mircea_popescu: o brother.
mircea_popescu: argentina has, bar none, the best icecream of anytime in the world or any place in history. and vice-versa.
mircea_popescu: it is so much better than anything i had before even shitty icecream here beats good italian stuff
mircea_popescu: there's hundreds of shops, literally, and they all do it by hand. selection being what it is...
mircea_popescu: if oyu've not had chocolate orange, or pistachio, or crema de almendras, or figs here you've not lived.
shinohai would like to troll a waiter in Argentina by asking for "Fakland Islands Fig" ice cream.
shinohai: "No! It's MALVINAS MARASCHINO"
mircea_popescu: they just get beaten puppy sore.
mircea_popescu: not really worth it.
mircea_popescu: best trollage, from experience, is when you wonder stuff like "how do all these people (stuck in traffic) manage to pay for the gas in the first place. then they get caught in an explanation of how money is made and you let them.
mircea_popescu: or you know, point out that the trafic jam consists of mostly buses, which are entirely empty. which is something they NEVER noticed before.
mircea_popescu: they're not so much evil as just incredibly stupid through blindfolding / willing suspension of disbelief.
mircea_popescu: quite american.
shinohai: Buses operating on schedule show their effishunsy!
mircea_popescu: eh they don't have bus schedules here.
mircea_popescu: fgor the obvious reason.

phf: well, They want to redefine the boundaries for obvious reasons. sort of an electronic version of jaywalking, or indecent exposure, or ..
asciilifeform: noshit.
asciilifeform: 'Now that it's looking like a Trump win is unlikely, you could argue that his supporters are following those conversations to their logical conclusion. You could also argue that Trump is feeding this narrative with his frequent proclamations that the election is “rigged." If you are among the 84 percent or so of Trump supporters who believe that is a legitimate issue, then it's an easy step from there to assume the riggers will hav
asciilifeform: e what's coming to them. (The presidential election is not rigged.)'
shinohai: I'm sure the Texas voting machine glitch from yesterday will add gas to that fire.

ben_vulpes: fuckin same exact product. amazon prime: 14.29. amazon /pantry/: 6.04
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: is the latter the subscription deal ?
asciilifeform: or was it the one where you pay some fixed sum for the crate, and then get to fill it with discounted items up to a certain mass
ben_vulpes: no prime pantry is this delightfully fucked thing where you have to fill a fifty pound box with shit before they'll give you any of it

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-10-27#1559478 << it's really a pity you didn't live in the soviet times, the identity'd be worth so many lulz...
a111: Logged on 2016-10-27 16:43 trinque: but the dnc hacks were obviously the russians.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the point being that ALL THE ARMY NATO HAS, altogether, is about 40k and some ipads.
mircea_popescu: almost enough to steal a toothbrush.
asciilifeform: how many grunts does it take to push button.
mircea_popescu: no button is connected to anything.
asciilifeform: this can't be ruled out.
mircea_popescu: i just ruled it out.
asciilifeform: the not-connectedness, that is
mircea_popescu: i just did.

asciilifeform takes it back, there is no such ugly in murmansk.

BingoBoingo: lol at hanbot's Qntest submissions
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform fwiw, i don't think much of ortega y gasset's notions of what makes the man. "sense of duty" my left foot.
mircea_popescu: same old bullshit. a is above b BECAUSE A IS ABOVE B. not because "a asks more of himself". it's an ontological matter, naught else, and it is not open to technologizing.
BingoBoingo: https://archive.is/xpE7m << OMG the butthurt brigading!
mircea_popescu: (the first and foremost mark of "humanism" in all matters is the rigid, resilient notion that anything can be technologized)
mircea_popescu finally noticed phf actually put an eye in triangle in the favicon of btcbase lol.

mircea_popescu: lol rogue state getting a little frazzled ?
shinohai: It's been a good day for Qntra
BingoBoingo: shinohai: As you can see by the byline this is opening piece of a new day.

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i thought he was pretty lulzy, "how about we just call the election off and say i won"
BingoBoingo: There are yet more lulz to come.
mircea_popescu: the whole "clinton is looking past trump" angle they jews ran with last week didn't look like it was going anywhere.
BingoBoingo: Anyways the "polls" for some reason keep oscillating. In Missouri Greitens went from a double digit deficit to 2 points. Who knew what hell the death of the landline phone would really bring?
mircea_popescu: it's very funny to me how the attempts at "sanitizing" "domestic terrorism" work. EVERY SINGLE MENTION OF VOTER FRAUD MUST BE TRAILED BY A STATEMENT OF HOW SUCH IS VERY RARE!!11
