mircea_popescu: yeah, discussion may well continue, but it does altogether not seem likely there's going to be a "chosen respirator"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah. i just meant the vidcard gnarl could maybe be excised in a politically defensible manner. historically it was ~60 to 70% of all the mess.
mircea_popescu: maybe he could be kim jong up from now on. and he could have a son and name him kim dong down
mircea_popescu: yeah but see, did pharoh buy one pyramid or 100`000 chunks of cut stone.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, this is not terribly related. "whether it's a collie or a terrier it still bit me"
mircea_popescu: so the drones "make the decision" to "buy" one with "their" "money" aka corp scrip on loan from the corp.
mircea_popescu: take modems. who buys them ? telcos. take say smartphones. who buys them ? corporations. literally, not just because they "issue" the drones one, but because they decide which is the "in" one to have.
mircea_popescu: i have doubts, as an anthropologist i mean, that this was EVER actually the case. it seems altogether plausible that the ~idea~ of turdmarket driving things was perceived as "likely to occur" in general and perhaps circumstantially occuring in some spots, but the trends are separating not joining
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform seems altogether improbable that as of today the turdmarket is the driver of anything.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform we have the power to standardize the iron, maybe, through the process of selection.
mircea_popescu: if it is linux, it probably is more like debian sarge or gentoo whatever from 2003 than anything visible in the wild. fuck, it probably should be more like ibm-dos really.
mircea_popescu: the path to bitcoinfs intersects a tmsr-os/loper-os/whatever-we-end-up-calling-it-os, just...
mircea_popescu: don't clean it up TOO much first, either. cheese gotta have some cheese flavour.
mircea_popescu: jurov is it practical to just "do the same thing as Framedragger " ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, normally i'd have just let you do the conversion locally, but since Framedragger is such an impetuous youth, we're moving fast for once :D
☟︎ mircea_popescu: recall, jurov parsed all of github, produced a pile of keys and the convertor code
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is Framedragger 's set (servers) or jurov 's set (github, cliuents) ?
mircea_popescu: we'll need a convertor anyway, the problem of non-compliant rsa implementation isn't going to go away suddenyl.
mircea_popescu: jurov if you dun feel like it, give it a little and Framedragger will make his thing a thing.
mircea_popescu: someone needs to tell mcafee that buying $5 worth of articles on craigslist results in $0 worth of verbiage.
mircea_popescu: i hope he lives off belly button lint, because any sort of social order in which this fuck is not starving is ipso facto broken
mircea_popescu: hopefully his local dispensary has enough pills to medicate him back to copacetic normalcy
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-06-20#1485681 <<< lol @poor schmuck hallucinating self "novelist", deciding to press on ANYWAY in spite of craig derp beheading because he also hallucinates himself some sort of postmodern orpheus who;'s gonna lyre the beasts to sleep, only to fall flat.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: all the butthurt people, oh noes. what shall we ever do!
mircea_popescu: in other news, apparently the uk is looking at legal options to implement a recursive splitting from the eu and subsequently drain all euros.
mircea_popescu: the days of gsm style gps "whatever stronger source wins" are done with the 90s
mircea_popescu: anyway, ima bbl. if the various journos that kept wanting interviews do manage to find their way to the internet, keep 'em warm ima be back in a few hours.
mircea_popescu: point to the moon, vc tard will look at the finger. then gouge his eyes out, and he'll thank you for nothing happening.
mircea_popescu: also the lulz at the stephan tual idiot, "nothing was stolen nothing was lost"
mircea_popescu: "|well, this line is because one idiot put a bug in in march 2015. this one april. these fifteen may. etc. it's all needed"
mircea_popescu: imagine the clever mit governance of their scamcoin. by 2018 there will be 10gb of crud. "why is this all here ?!?!?!?!"
mircea_popescu: but the lulziest part : their "solution" consists of a blacklist to be baked into code forevermore!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's been very amusing to watch the margins of the impact crater.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform part of the "import a sig" chain, see what phuctor says.
mircea_popescu: KGery well, give it a few hours we'll see wtf this is.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you know, phuctor's becoming quite the tool in scoping out new sigs.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: then they can have the Pot vs PoB holy wars, arraying anarcho-bureaucratists vs queer nontransgenerational feminists & vegans or something.
mircea_popescu: yes you get discounts if you do a lot of international settlements, but still.
mircea_popescu: "a transaction" ie, "pay from these 500 accounts to these 500 accounts" is not ONE wire. it's 1001 wires.
mircea_popescu: such a worldy man as roger ver should fucking know what that costs.
mircea_popescu: much like phantomcircuit is still "contributing" to bitcoin, presumably new and novel ways to send the whole customer list the whole customer emails list.
mircea_popescu: much like that slock muppet isn't coming out with a "we fucked it all up, i'm unqualified to trim hedges" suicide note.
mircea_popescu: in the new normal of usg agents, "you only say something if it benefits you". so they don't see the point of saying "we lost it all", because what's in it for them ?
mircea_popescu: hopefully it bleeds out the entirety of mit's 13 bn worth of paper "endowments" and we don't have to hear about that shithole ever again.
mircea_popescu: while they should be beheaded in principle, there's really no emergency.
mircea_popescu: well, if this were some sort of uncontrollable spread by vector like infection, then yes. but in point of fact they're only contagious IF YOU AGREE. you don't have to agree.
mircea_popescu: the cheek of the usg agents, you know. "legal system" czar gave them the note signed by hitler, they perceive responsibility as a thing of the past.
mircea_popescu: lmao. this from the still very vocal "company" THAT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MESS ?
