asciilifeform: mircea_popescu's harem is typical american marriahe the way my battlestation is typical amer pc.
asciilifeform: the jews of old europe understood this, and - best as i know - NEVER invoked the goyish judicial system on whatever pretext, when dispute was wholly internal
asciilifeform: and eventually devolves to the usual 'star topology'.
asciilifeform: but to copy it you need a reasonably self-contained tribal machine for settling disputes, otherwise devolves to a contest of who can invoke usg library calls to moar effect.
asciilifeform: the others - can try to copy, or make own.
asciilifeform: solution described works for some folks.
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: strictly the set of folk who dun have a hassan and ibrahim.
asciilifeform: and yes, if woman knows that your cousins hassan and ibrahim will douse her in petrol and light if she takes you to usg divorce court -- she probably won't.
asciilifeform: folks who do not fall into one of these clans, end up in the inca's star topology and get raped.
asciilifeform: just ask the mormons, nyc hassids, etc.
asciilifeform: if you run a sufficiently tight imperium in imperio, usg gets to bite its elbows and you can get away with pretty much anything, so long as the wall is tall enough.
asciilifeform: when you buy car from car co. instead of trading for barrel of rum from blood clan, jew cackles. etc.
asciilifeform: and yes, orlov put this point in book length, when you borrow money from banks instead of your blood clan, jew cackles, and coins ring in usg coffer, etc.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: entirely separate thing from that also.
asciilifeform: (ianal, but the talmudic fiction is that it is 'a right of the child')
asciilifeform: and the 'child support' thing is wholly separate from alimony and contracts have 0 effect.
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: in the anglo world, it is 'unnecessary' in the same way bleeding-as-medicine is. i.e. unless you are a lizard, judge will piss on your prenup.
asciilifeform is simply not at all fond of ninjashotguns, ain't no seeekrit
asciilifeform: to SOMEONE, this was supposed to read as an appealing! thing.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: noshit.jpg. but consider, SOMEONE was audience for this crapolade !
asciilifeform: 'He said Nextdoor has added “racial profiling” as a category for people who want to flag a conversation as inappropriate and that it has provided additional training on how to recognize toxic conversations about race to the volunteer “neighborhood leads” who are responsible for moderating discussions.'
asciilifeform: trinque: got any good atrocity stories ?
asciilifeform: ^ but we already, i think, did this thread.
asciilifeform: (this also makes for a clean transition to comms over shortwave, hijacked tv satellites, or whatever other twist the future holds where packets come with NO return address)
asciilifeform: enemy's entire infrastructure has a premise baked in, that a 'conversation' is something that happens 'between ip a and b'.
asciilifeform: mpex proxies are a reasonably good analogy for this.
asciilifeform: because i can send raptorade split among 25 boxes, to his 15, in random order.
asciilifeform: s, as can mine, and traffic between them cannot be grouped into 'a conversation between x and y' by third party.
asciilifeform: one other point re http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-26#1529877 is that divorcing from 'a node is an ip' entirely, makes this or any variant of this attack considerably more painful. with single-packet quanta, and raptor code (i.e. it does not matter whether mircea_popescu gets all of my packets in order, but only that he gets 10% of the packets i send in next second, in SOME order) his 'node' could consist of 15 machines in 6 continent☝︎
