mircea_popescu: is
this how
the anglotards have sex
then ?
they bump into each other at
that delicate moment of confuswion when crossind
thresholds ?
mircea_popescu: davout
trying
to include you into republican affairs in
the only apparently remaining opportunity, ie discussions of accounting reform.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: PSA : hey schmucks -- it's ok
to exist without attempting
to pretend you're me. seriously now. being MP isn't for everyone. not quite managing
to be MP isn't
the end of
the world.
mircea_popescu: " He is noted for his "billionaire bad boy" image yet shrewd business sense." << what
the everloving fuck ?
shinohai: "I was going
to burn
this money in front of some homeless people, but
this seemed like a bigger waste."
phf: huh, odd, i
thought ed was dead for good
a111: Logged on 2017-10-07 01:03 mircea_popescu: well, yes, but
then again how many of
the 500 will join
the choir invisible ?
shinohai: Well
thanks phf ....
that's enough internet for me
today.
phf: “He was previously an award-winning music journalist, and has blogged about music at Rocknerd since 2001. He is a volunteer spokesman for Wikipedia, and is on
the board of
the RationalMedia Foundation, host of skeptical wiki RationalWiki. Originally from Australia, he lives in east London with his spouse Arkady and
their daughter. Until he reinstalled
the laptop
they were on, he was
the proud owner of six Dogecoins.”
mircea_popescu: anyway, i would expect "his interest in russia" dates from
the 90s, back when he was a 39 yo bachelor "looking
to expand his dating horizons"
mircea_popescu: it
takes a very special sort of
tard
to buy subdomains off co.uk's blog.
phf: mircea_popescu, asciilifeform i will admit i didn't read
the article, original is in ru, various english
transcommentaries are no better
than
this david guy.
mod6: Yup, sounds good jurov.
Thanks!
mircea_popescu: (oh and since we're on usg
tools : nominum, nsa's shell company used in
the "community consensus" building of
the reformed dns system etc, ended up parked in akamai's basement for "an undisclosed amount" earlier
this year. which is how
these work and why
they exist in
the first place.)
mircea_popescu: but let's
talk instead of what proof i have
that
the proof
there displayed is proving anything, amirite.
mircea_popescu: how
the fuck is nasdaq.com linking
to companyspotlight.com
that seo-redirects
to orderanualreports.com any fucking different from randomscamsite.lol redirecting
to fakeoffers.hurr redirecting
to 419emergency.site ?
mircea_popescu: (and in other lulz :
http://www.nasdaq.com/symbol/akam ; now
try and find
their fucking annual reports, and when
the link 404s
think
to yourself
that hey,
this is perfectly fine, after all it's nasdaq, a perfectly legitimate scamsite, because pantsuit says so! for ourdemocracy vorwarts!!!)
mircea_popescu: because no, as a point of republican ideology no
tax is anything other
than a salary.
mircea_popescu: Net Margin is what's left of
the GM once all human costs have been substracted.
this includes all salaries, ALL
TAX, compliance, etcetera.
mircea_popescu: these are all gross approximations, of course, but not really
THAT far off.
mircea_popescu: possibly something like 50% GM makes sense, at least at
the level of precision contemplated here. it's not so far off
to say
that a)
the lifetime of a box is a year ; b)
the lifetime cost of a box is about 5k and c)
there are no other capital goods in akamai.
mircea_popescu: Gross Margin is specifically what's left of revenue (aka GR) once you substract
the capital costs.
that's maintenance, amortization, scl.
mircea_popescu: so,
this entity has Gross Receipts on
the level of about 2.5bn, for simplicity.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-16 19:42 mircea_popescu: but since we're doing
this : lewin's "50k competition business idea" runs a quarter million boxes in something like a coupal
thousand dcs.
to compare and contrast with
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-12#1724349 mircea_popescu: phf who
the fuck is some
tool named david know or have
to say about "ruble" anyway
☟︎ mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i have nfi, apparently
the idiotreich by now imagines i have
to make
the case, not it.
BingoBoingo: "You could now go
to court and deny
that it was you
that signed something—there would be no way
to prove it, because
theoretically, anyone could have worked out your private key." << WTF Mate?
jurov: mod6: ben_vulpes: shall i renew
therealbitcoin.org/com using foundation funds?
jurov: "The flaw resides in
the Infineon-developed RSA Library version v1.02.013, specifically within an algorithm it implements for RSA primes generation. "
☟︎☟︎☟︎ BingoBoingo: The last
time I did
that
there was a grub with
the worms
BingoBoingo: ^ asciilifeform
this suggests 100 Mbps may be eliciting
the same response from
the connectivity endowed as request for 1U
BingoBoingo: And in latest developments, China Mobile is making a push for my attention again,
this
time offering 10 and 20 Gbps ports. Still no numbers yet.
mod6: Ready
to have a nice evening out with a picnic.
mircea_popescu: mod6 hey, you spend a year
teaching goy chicks
to make proper matzah balls, you're not gonna sit around and hope maybe one of
the local
tupi
tribesmen managed
to impale an edible iguana
that evening.
mod6: i lul'd about
the food in
the icebox.
mod6: nice pics of
the beach.
mircea_popescu: first
they get some convicted criminal
to steal some data and start a site,
then
they use it
to prop
their hallucinations re bitcoin and fiat,
then
they pretend it was all illegal,
then
they run off with it,
then
they start a few more, it's like watching housewives fuck/
mircea_popescu: i
think
the evolution of
the usg reclaimation of
their own buterin waterfals is well documented by now, it's always
the same
thing.
mircea_popescu: hey,
they waited, we let
them.
takes
two legs for usg
to walk on.
shinohai: "Hmmm .... you
think 80 stamps will be enuf
to ship
this?"
mircea_popescu: in
this perspective,
the empire became an absolute necessity,
topless Republique glorieuse y compris, once
the literary salons ran
their course.
mircea_popescu: if
the merchant being "Stolen" from doesn't believe he could be a fieldmarchal's father one day, what sells him on it ?
mircea_popescu: well, so applying
this
to
the french revolution point of interest -- you're going
to end up with a lot of "kings are bad, mkay, notwithstanding monarchy is
the only workable system" because... because how else is napoleon
to pass legislation allowing pregnant women
to eat anything off
the market stalls and not be punished for it ?
mircea_popescu: both did
the right
thing. first,
teardown of
the nonsense, with a lot of "unnecessary" collateral damage -- except if it weren't damaged it'd have been way
the fuck necssary
to damage it.
mircea_popescu: a)
that
there was no direct route from imperial ranks
to soviet ranks and b)
that
therefore
the lenin moment is JUST AS necessary and "Correct" or how you call it as stalin's.
there's no "error".
