asciilifeform: they wanted, i guess, the kulak's hoard.
asciilifeform: (if memorable-name-whateverthefuck manipulation took 3 milliseconds and cost 0, it would be trivial to move warez site as often as you like)
asciilifeform: incidentally one major role of usgtronic 'dns' etc. is to make isp jurisdiction-hopping gnarlier.
asciilifeform: this'd be more of a 'why does restaurant kitchen have mice, looksy, intel's fab floor doesn't' 'are you ready to pay $50,000 a gram for the potato?'
asciilifeform: ergo 'sane isp' reduces to 'sane bank'
asciilifeform: i.e. glued to the fiatdom(s) in which it physically runs.
asciilifeform: revisiting upstack , isp in the traditional sense, as i understand it , is 'castle'
asciilifeform: ifornia is "blue" because electoral votes are an all-or-nothing thing. In reality, Donald Trump got about 3 million of the 9 million votes cast for president in California. Those votes for Trump don't matter, though. '
asciilifeform: from same fishwrap, 'But post-election, there were a bunch of tweets from people saying they thought California should secede from the union, and so #CalExit became a thing to cover. Here's the thing about this particular secession movement—it is utterly oblivious to the ideological diversity within the state, thanks to the wholesale Democratic domination of the government due to population density in urban coastal communities. Cal
asciilifeform: they all grew in cultural vacuum created by sucking black hole of americana.
asciilifeform: i dunno that there exist on planet3 'innocent barbarian'
asciilifeform: hence the babylon example. picture chix with 0 hollywood exposure.
asciilifeform: even dirigible does not magic away the problem, it could even be that mircea_popescu would much more enjoy fucking ancient babylonian gurlz, whose training could take a week instead of a year, no 'gargauni' in the head to start with, but they are not available.
asciilifeform: and dan mocsny actually had this in an old post.
asciilifeform: anyway, folks-sans-dirigible-have-no-preferences-just-illusions, etc., sure, we had thread.
asciilifeform: the j00z, pulled out of their shtetl planet, end up heiling clitler, etc.
asciilifeform: it is actually a mega-argument for mircea_popescu's despised 'blood and soil', folx separated from their natural habitat end up as.. this
asciilifeform: and yes usa is where europe et al dumps folx to get deculturated and 'eaten by wolves' and converted to 'modern demoocracy' participants.
asciilifeform: hey it's a handy 'who's who', in much the same way as one learns, working in usg laboratory dungeons for years, to tell all of the east asian folk apart from across hallway before even hello.
asciilifeform: i was stumped, but pet explained 'pussy'
asciilifeform: (from some first-hand familiarity) it is not clear to me that they were in any sense eaten, they are still here. marching round with picket signs , e.g., 'PROTECT MY [picture of cat] FROM TRUMP'
asciilifeform: ('1/3 will convert, 1/3 -- emigrate, 1/3 - will starve')
asciilifeform: incidentally the cross-ocean folx were largely in the 1890-1910 wave, from belorussia and elsewhere, pushed by pobedonostsev's famous 'rule of thirds'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you mean -- living ~inside~ the pale ?
asciilifeform: 'you crack the skulls you can crack, not the skulls you wish you could crack' or what did bush say.
asciilifeform: idiot fritzes bulldozed satmar, warsaw, whichever, i suppose because america is far.
asciilifeform: i have 0 idea what any of these people were smoking.
asciilifeform: also the hypothesis that these were 'faux j00z' and the real ones - all killed in warsaw -- does not stand. the folx calling for boycott of germany in '30s, etc., were grandparents of 'freedom riders', and great-grandparents of the chix i was 'protesting' with last night.
asciilifeform: (largely j00z, but for some reason this got 'un-facted' )
asciilifeform: it was a quite overt surrender of territory, the idiot rulers of the time saw it as 'temporary' strategic retreat
asciilifeform: there were no tank divisions, but there ~were~ molotov-thrower divisions. in '60s, when they hijacked what was left of usa university system to push 'studies' etc
asciilifeform: in ~human~ terms it dun mean much. go and try to translate the barely-audible chitter of weevils.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-10#1565372 << in progre pidgin, 'divisive' == 'will stir up the folx who oughta be shutting up and sucking, and showing up to construction site, and enlisting to die for some fat chick's right to marry her dog'☝︎
asciilifeform: btw i dunno if this was obvious from the pic, but the thing in dc was Officially sanctioned, there were police cars to herd traffic away, etc
asciilifeform: crowd was palpably different than, e.g., iraq protest of '03, where i also watched
asciilifeform: i meant the old 20th c.-style malnutrition. they were a head shorter than the chix i remember from uni
asciilifeform: they looked like 1930s (not yet '40s, no) ghetto folk
asciilifeform: one strange thing i noticed in the great writhing mass of student chix last night (there will be a larger one, supposedly, tonight, with mr t. in town!111 but i dunno if i can be arsed to go photohunt again) is the malnutrition
asciilifeform: i would pay to watch this experiment alive.
asciilifeform: 'Five people were shot and injured in an area near the protest, but police said the shootings and the demonstration were unrelated.' << lel
