09:03 |

that was your first mistake |
09:03 |
mircea_popescu |
yeah generally a pragmatic approach works better. there are more things we want to believe in than can be done. |
09:04 |

so people are saying neobee is a scam now? |

how is it official vancleef? |

mircea_popescu |
psterryl what's your reasoning process here ? |
09:06 |
psterryl |
my reasoning is evidence based |
09:06 |
psterryl |
without evidence either way |
09:06 |
mircea_popescu |

<psterryl> so people are saying neobee is a scam now? |

mircea_popescu |
<VanCleef> yeah its official <psterryl> until someone points to some legit evidence or a statement from LMB/neo/danny |

it's impossible to call it one way or the other |

no, this is neither reasonable nor novel material. |

the path is 1) you prove you're able to think ; 2) you're entitled to your own viewpoint. |
09:09 |

so everyone is entitled to the mircea approved viewpoint? |
09:09 |
mircea_popescu |
so far you're short 1. |
09:09 |

no. |

well, my 1st class university degree should suggest i'm ok for #1 |

it suddenly becomes much harder to take them seriously |

psterryl |
even idiots are entited to an opinion |
09:14 |
psterryl |
it might be subjectively wrong in my eyes |
09:14 |
psterryl |
but doesnt mean they're not entiteld to it |
09:14 |
ThickAsThieves |
i dunno |
09:15 |
ThickAsThieves |
did you bother asking why? |
09:15 |
ThickAsThieves |
maybe he has logic behind his claims |
09:15 |
ThickAsThieves |
you never felt like some people's opinion's dont deserve the weight they carry |
09:15 |
ThickAsThieves |
? |
09:15 |
psterryl |
of course |
09:15 |
psterryl |
but they're still entitled to that opinion |
09:15 |
psterryl |
despite my personal views of it |
09:16 |
ThickAsThieves |
or like the people that are most likely to say "everyone is entitled to their own opinion" are the least likely to have opinions worth considering? |
09:16 |
psterryl |
well |
09:16 |
psterryl |
that may be your opinion |
09:16 |
ThickAsThieves |
it's customer-is-always-right syndrome |
09:16 |
psterryl |
and you're totally entitled to it |
09:17 |
psterryl |
but i personally disagree |
09:17 |
ThickAsThieves |
maybe the issue mp has is with entitlement itself |
09:17 |
ThickAsThieves |
not the craziest thing to challenge |
09:18 |
VanCleef |
anyone have a youtube vid of a robot that's better than asimo? |
09:18 |
psterryl |
that's a possibility |
09:19 |
psterryl |
but saying that someone has to prove their intelligence before they're allowed an opinion |
09:19 |
psterryl |
seems like a fairly entitled stance |
09:19 |
psterryl |
so maybe it's a self-loathing issue |
09:20 |
ThickAsThieves |
if you think mp is self-loathing, you have not read much from him |
09:20 |
psterryl |
like i said i'm new here |
09:20 |
VanCleef |
stocks are like women....once they lose their value you dump them |
09:21 |
ThickAsThieves |
VanCleef, in that example, isnt better to dump them before they lose value? |
09:21 |
VanCleef |
yes but like with women investors get emotionally involved and dont know when to let go |
09:22 |
VanCleef |
this is the problem psterryl is having with neobee atm |
09:22 |
ThickAsThieves |
a bit of a generalization, but i hear ya |
09:24 |
pankkake |
I thought the limit for women was clear, dump when the age doesn't end in teen |
09:24 |
psterryl |
and sometimes people bring a relationship back from the rocks and go on to have long and fulfilling times together |
09:25 |
mircea_popescu |
why not just dump them when they get annoying, age-irrespective ? |
| |
↖ |
09:26 |

wait there are non-annoying women?! |

mircea_popescu |
yeah! |
09:26 |

that didn't use to be a man? |
09:26 |
mircea_popescu |
see, if you dump them when they get 20 you're stuck with a bunch of annoying teens |

mircea_popescu |
if you dump them when they get annoying you're stuck with a bunch of pleasant women. |

now to fully establish the other extreme, since nobody seems inclined, we return to scriptae : |
09:41 |
mircea_popescu |
It's unfair to quote a 5 year old article but if Alone still believes _that_ analysis has validity...he's missed the forest of leeching for the victimized and disinterested trees. Many women invest their entire lives in what amounts to brazen fraud conducted and perfected to "catch" a guy who is then trapped with no idea how cruelly he's been setup. |
09:41 |
mircea_popescu |
Guys lose interest. And women, who hated sex remember (they're not that type of girl), suddenly give the con away. It boils down to this; what are they bringing to the party? |
09:41 |
mircea_popescu |
Emotional poison, lies, some shitty repetitive sex (I'll be more romantic when those who believe in the lie that is exclusivity eat the same meal for the rest of their lives), surrogate services, shitty cooking...It doesn't matter that I'm grossly making crude generalizations. I'm right. |

i'll give this much credit to the entire progressive movement : while in the 50s there in fact existed schools and other torture implements dedicated to reforming otherwise decent, healthy and loving human beings into the sort of very sad victims of abuse described there, |
09:44 |
mircea_popescu |
it's rare now. |
09:44 |

so rare that extant examples are almost fascinating for reason of that rarity. |

17:59 |
asciilifeform |
(naturally, rom with physical switch for write-enable) |
18:00 |
asciilifeform |
one reason might be that pc architecture, almost always by default, 'shadows' roms |
18:00 |
asciilifeform |
that is, copies them to cacheable RAM on boot |
18:00 |

(executing from rom, esp. the 'serial' 8-legged variety, is dog-slow) |

tg2: technically no, webkigtk+ requires X unless you find a way to get gtk running without x.. there used to be a way with cairo but nobody seems to care anymore. |
22:34 |
kanzure |
tg2: however, running X headlessly is not hugely problematic these days because of xserver-xorg-video-dummy |
22:35 |
kanzure |
tg2: and i would say the advantages of running modern webkit far outweigh the troubles with running X... you get Function.prototype.bind :) |
22:37 |
kanzure |
even when phantomjs2 comes out in the next few months i would recommend caution because the dependency on qtwebki from a qt release means that you're waiting multiple months for bugfixes to get into phantomjs (so far webkit updates are so far behind it's sad) |
22:38 |
kanzure |
e.g. it's not just qtwebkit but it's a qt-release that includes a release of qtwebkit which includes a release of webkit. but the real thing you care about is webkit! |
