00:13 BingoBoingo ;;google Until then, I’d only heard of “alcohol showers.” Turns out 70% isopropyl alcohol is about the only thing that can even touch a scent like that once its soaked into your skin. It takes four or five bottles to get really clean, but it’s worth it. It’s probably the only scenario I can honestly endorse drinking a little of it, too.

10:54 mircea_popescu it allows arbitrary of whoever by whoever already anyway.
10:55 asciilifeform wake me up when a country with indoor shitters and an electric grid hangs u.s. 'law' enforcers in public.

10:57 asciilifeform ditto.

10:58 asciilifeform that i'd care to have anything to do with, at any rate.
10:58 mircea_popescu your ideas of goatfucking are unwelcome, in that you don't even judge you could survive on your own in buenos aires.
10:58 mircea_popescu i might as well ask what 12 yo virgins think of handling households.
10:58 asciilifeform what means 'on own' ?
10:59 mircea_popescu hands in pockets, flavour country style.
10:59 asciilifeform i do not, for instance, own personal reactor. rely on other folks', believe.
10:59 mircea_popescu (you realise "goat country" is a proxy for disability right ? we don't call them cruthces, we call them mechanical mobility aids! )
10:59 mircea_popescu of the 12 mn people living here, NONE owns personal reactor.
11:00 asciilifeform then none 'survive on their own' ?
11:00 mircea_popescu fact is they survive, and if asked to discern what is and isnt a goatfuckingstan i'd take their word above yours
11:00 asciilifeform point was, if you are escobar, the middle of the sea can be a civilized country for you, because you can afford to re-create it.
11:01 mircea_popescu but you aren't, and this discussion wasn't in any sense germane.

11:02 asciilifeform my attempted point was precisely that, not being escobar, many more places are uninhabitable from my pov, because i cannot afford to terraform them.
11:02 mircea_popescu you can't even afford to analyse them, apparently.
11:03 asciilifeform whereas mircea_popescu could, if he for some odd reason wished, live in antarctica. so it is not 'goat country' for him.

11:04 asciilifeform have not been there in person, no.
11:04 mircea_popescu how trhe heck would you know. fucking chiapas is one of the best places on earth.

11:05 asciilifeform but you went there while being mircea_popescu, no ?

11:05 asciilifeform for a 20-y.o. mircea_popescu, perhaps kabul would have also appeared 'best place' ?
11:05 mircea_popescu mno.

11:51 mircea_popescu 1.
11:51 mircea_popescu well of course.
11:51 mircea_popescu the way these things work is that they try to cover as much as possible.
11:53 pete_dushenski this was the essential dispute over canadian softwood lumber vis-a-vis regulatory jurisdiction under nafta
11:58 pete_dushenski canadian provinces wanted to subsidise their industry via 'stumpage fee' but usistan said that this was 'unfair' and imposed a compensatory duty on canadian softwood lumber. much fur flew but canada eventually agreed to 'anti-dumping' price schemes.
11:59 mircea_popescu aha.
11:59 pete_dushenski actually, the 'softwood lumber agreement' expires this month.
11:59 mircea_popescu quite not the same thing.
12:01 pete_dushenski well, it's the same thing in the sense that u.s. wanted tightly controlled and self-advantageous 'free trade'. canada complied. argentina didn't.

12:26 mircea_popescu read up on the original merchant's guilds for a broad idea.
12:26 pete_dushenski i can see renouncing taxation of income and capital gains, sure, but real estate tax would still seem to be on the table, no ?
12:27 mircea_popescu no. first, they admit they do not have the right to steal.
12:27 mircea_popescu THEN we might turn the other way for a little time over a little tax leftovers to make the transition smoother.
12:27 mircea_popescu but otherwise, no.
12:28 mircea_popescu and if real estate holders think pooling THEIR moneyt is such a great idea, guess what ? they will.
12:28 pete_dushenski their 'right' is might.
12:28 mircea_popescu no such thing.

17:09 gabrielradio not sure about the poem tho. the way i saw this whole translation thing was that mircea_popescu wanted the ro articles translated because he didn't want to spend the time to do it himself, so that's where i would come in
17:10 gabrielradio but in the case of the poem, time isn't the issue, and if he deems it unfit for translation in his own hand, i doubt it would make sense for me to try & translate it

17:40 ascii_field ben_vulpes: every escapee from 'amazon' i've personally spoken with, said essentially same thing: 'run like sov uranium mine'
17:41 mircea_popescu that's the only way you can run something with muricans.
17:41 ascii_field ben_vulpes: complete with 'ударники', firings of 'bottom x%', etc.
17:41 mircea_popescu not bezos' fault they're essentially rus empire peasants.
17:41 ascii_field well the interesting part is that people go to work there.
17:41 ascii_field rather than packed into vans and forcibly pressed, yes.
17:42 ascii_field but, as i understand, they come in, and soon come out of the other end.
17:43 ascii_field 'Bezos runs a company, not a playground for millenials. He runs it to make a profit...' << the last bit is technically a mistake...
17:43 ascii_field amazon has not, for most of its existence, turned a profit in the customary sense of the word.
17:44 ascii_field (nor really tried, afaik.)
17:44 mircea_popescu ascii_field i am willing to bet the complaints are ALL "oh we were defrauded, landlord kept our deposit and we didn't really piss on the parquet. it was not our fault!"
17:44 mircea_popescu as you say, wake me up when inept woman is stripped, whipped and left tied to the office door over the weekend.
17:44 mircea_popescu until then, work conditions are too soft.
17:45 ascii_field mircea_popescu: i only met a few of these folks. but they all said strictly same things, described something quite like the practices that breathed life into the labour unions of 100 years ago...
17:45 mircea_popescu specifically ?
17:47 mircea_popescu jurovconsider i have there one cdg with q 465, storage shows 240 << grass is 60, q 100, and cft is 180, q 100. no idea why it shows 240, atm. but we KNOW that the prices shown are broken atm, and chetty was going to fix them, but then got some health problems. it's still on the list to fix, and will be fixed asap.
17:47 ascii_field 'fire bottom x%' decimations; 'promote top y%, defined in asinine quantitative metrics', misc. sovietisms
17:47 mircea_popescu they exist because of the worthless peasants.

17:51 mircea_popescu no thinking / respectable person would run the farm of muricans any other way.

17:51 mircea_popescu not so.

23:41 mircea_popescu so here's a bizarre matter of fact : if one were to buy a dozen candles and emplace them on a windowsil, so that they're at different heights (say two inches differential tallest to shortest) and let them burn for a half hour or whatever it takes to finger a girl to exhaustion,
23:41 mircea_popescu they will all burn at the same level.
23:41 mircea_popescu candle consensus height wtf.
