mircea_popescu: anyway, if isis had any sense they'd just steal the liveshow format. what's that thing called where they put x guys in a house ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, the recently failed megaoffensive on tikrit produced from what i hear a good few thousands prisoners
mircea_popescu: 100 btc guy goes free (o oops, a DIFFERENT group got him just as he was leaving our compound)
cazalla: perhaps a custom video for the largest changetipper
mircea_popescu: they could have a "vote how the guy dies".
cazalla: nope, but i'd laugh if they began to include a QR code in their head chop videos
mircea_popescu: we could have a script to changetip them fiddy satoshi till the cows come home
mircea_popescu: anyway, since this is such a big deal (!?), anyone know of some of these isis reddit users ?
mircea_popescu: "While Amin's articles, author profile at Coin Brief and twitter account have since been deleted, a copy of his author archive at Coin Brief remains available via Google cache and is mirrored here."

BingoBoingo: artifexd: Golang seems to have a lot of those holes
artifexd: Oh, actually that is complaining about one of the golang tools. And it would be dangerous if you had a MITM that could swap out code inflight and were importing external code directly.
danielpbarron: Funny how not long it takes the Christian to start a holy war upon the poor Arab! << LOL, I honestly didn't even consider his ethnicity; I have a /stab alias for when people annoy me
BingoBoingo: PeterL I would much prefer to read an article than to listen to some guy talking. << And this is how the world ends. Not with a whimper, but with a 7.62x54R bang
scoopbot: New post on Trilema by Mircea Popescu: http://trilema.com/2015/a-sjsqd-walks-into-a-pub/

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes. wot is "level of confidence i have a complete picture of this person"
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: You initially gave him a small negative rating out of dislike and it was described as such. I hung him for fabricating allegations of theft.
asciilifeform: (common lisp has a standard-cum-rationale and it isn't quite as deliciously readable)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i think your view of what is after all a natural process is too informed by categorical logic.
assbot: How a 25-Year-Old Sparked Lumber Liquidators’ Stock Plunge - Bloomberg Business ... ( http://bit.ly/18l0LLQ )
decimation: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-03-04/how-a-25-year-old-investor-spurred-lumber-liquidators-plunge < apparently the new investing hotness is to short a company and then throw it into the usg woodchipper
assbot: Logged on 04-03-2015 20:13:24; asciilifeform: there is even a 'rationale' document (also book) ready to argue with you
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it's alive for the purpose of usg stooges being able to 'talk about bitcoin' without mentioning #b-a ever
danielpbarron: i gave rozal -10 for being a self described liar, and some others got a -1 or -2 for striking me as sketchy..
asciilifeform: it's at breaking point << it's been carrying on a happy 'life' of the undead zombie for quite some time, rotting, culturing maggots & worms, throwing chunks of flesh at bystanders
mircea_popescu: treason's only a hanging offence originally. soon enough...
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: That is neither a problem nor a lack therof
danielpbarron: the reason i didn't clarify at the time was that i kinda hope he does go and write a LTBarticle about this place and get himself banned from "the community"
danielpbarron: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=05-03-2015#1042688 << i meant banned from whatever venues he came from if he starts writing about b-a ☝︎
mircea_popescu: a nm, french version

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform apparently they're very insecure people, spend a lot of time wondering.
BingoBoingo: cazalla: Yes. Not vodka really. Just plain grain alcohol... and time... and dreams... of USia giving me brown people as a target...
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform at some point in the 90s knew a whole bunch of chicks who technically lived there
asciilifeform: dubai (his claimed home) is an interesting place. haven't had to go there myself yet, but have a friend who regularly visits. has stories
BingoBoingo: decimation: The solution is not shooting him yet, but giving him a historical cadaver to explore
mircea_popescu: it serves a purpose
BingoBoingo: ;;later tell sjsqd You are a crisis nao
mircea_popescu: but that gets undone on a "hey, i fixed it!"
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Has #b-a actually banned ever?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: They would recognize te sovient national anthem though given a picture of sean connery
BingoBoingo: Seriouly though if USia offered me a mosin in exchange for 45 minutes at the ISIS border bleaching browns... I'd take that
BingoBoingo: As a USian I have to assume ISIS must be bad, and therefore Obumer sucks for not letting me take potshots at them.
BingoBoingo: Maybe they can actually hold together ling enough to submit a bid.
mircea_popescu: not a bad thing that, anywya.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Over time total new s.qntr per month is on a downward trend becasuse refinement
BingoBoingo: Was bored, but at least he wasn't on a boat which was his greatest fear as a marine
BingoBoingo: I've a cousin who did some bracjwasser stuff
asciilifeform: (preferring folks schooled in the normal army for a tour or three)
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: They spotted me the last time with a specific mental defect they refuse to abide
BingoBoingo: Sand niggers are still a species of nigger
BingoBoingo maybe surprisingly would still be willing to carry a rifle to tikrit in USia's name. Just since USia didn't accept my flirtations last time if they take me this time I want to pick the rifle.
decimation: the historians who would be worth a shit are probably busy trying to keep their house and eat
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform russian side is a little better represented, but not much.
mircea_popescu: nobody has made a "Russia and the US in the 1800s : A Tale Of Twin Sisters" monograph to date
mircea_popescu: at the time, in fact, the us and russia had a shitload in common : inept peripheral immense landmasses.
decimation: although I don't know how one could find a history that isn't wrapped in progressive bullshit
mircea_popescu: he died iether before or soon after, and had for a while retired.
mircea_popescu: a crown in the traditional sense is a very primitive instrument, because it purports (necessarily, but ineffectually) to hold ALL sovereignty. now the poor bearer's stuck deciding how fires are to be put out, how wives are to be kept, etc.
asciilifeform: a case like these is simply historians misidentifying who is actually the fella wearing the crown
mircea_popescu: the j p morgan bailout was essentially a "everyone come to my house!" and then "you will do like so because i say so"
decimation: as you can imagine, only the rich can have such a hobby
mircea_popescu: tons of things "legal if you have a license we aren't issuing because we're at liberty to do this."
decimation: that, and finding a way to mill bullets at home :)
decimation: asciilifeform: pounding a wedge between usg and its ability print bezzlars is the proper route of resistance
assbot: Logged on 26-11-2014 00:46:13; asciilifeform: have to understand, jet fighter is not really a complete machine. it is a tentacle of the larger industrial slave empire which produced and employed it.
asciilifeform: by the time you have a desire to buy the cannon instead of 'toyota' - it's generally too late
asciilifeform: picture if usg tomorrow said 'we don't care, go buy a cannon if you want, like it's 1780 again'
decimation: well, I'm thinking of a more military scenario
decimation: I suspect the real reason that usg makes it difficult is because a suppressed small arm has real utility against usg
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah I'm not sure what you agree to when you buy one but you definitely need a note from stalin
asciilifeform: so the suppressors (sop in eu) were banned as something only a 'shady crook' would use
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah, you can even buy the parts to turn your milled receiver into a pistol http://www.bushmaster.com/firearms/pistols.asp
asciilifeform: decimation: they have this ancient law, where that one part is the only thing that 'counts' as a limited item, and the rest of the weapon can be bought with cash in a shop or even outdoor market
decimation: so I don't think he's serious. although the idea of milling your own 'm-4gery' out of an '80%' receiver is a neat one
decimation: sure. and whoever is free to make a press release about it
decimation: obviously, he's selling them as 'death in a box'
asciilifeform: '3d printer', for those unfamiliar, is a very costly item. i don't even keep one here, can't justify
mircea_popescu: i'm making a sjsqd megapiece, it's great that convo.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform got a link to where you go "omg wtf bbq am i the only one trying to run these shitstacks"
asciilifeform: sorta a 'solid state electric lathe.'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: would need a sabot
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform> (who has du in his cellar? anyone with a boat or airplane graveyard) << Anyone in Iowa has too much
asciilifeform: (who has du in his cellar? anyone with a boat or airplane graveyard)
mircea_popescu: if there's a way to show the cultural superiority of the 4th republic, this film in this context is it.
mircea_popescu: listen, do this : pirate it, sit the girl down one fine evening after a delicious repast, watch this thing.
Vexual: yeah and he claims hes not a hipster
asciilifeform: a metre of pipe - 500 rounds
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: have them machined grossly then electrofined << nonono - whole point is to make'em in a cup in kitchen, jungle conditions
mircea_popescu: this is a good point.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo, ben_vulpes: incidentally, bullet would be a perfect 'killer app' for electrolytic machining. low mass, touchy geometry
BingoBoingo: Indicator, maybe not a perfect one
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I suspect is is merely a broad net to collect information on malcontents
asciilifeform: agent must have a purpose
