mircea_popescu: and so no, there's no serious question that the future of the us is anything else or anything different from the africa which it has for so long aimed to join.
mircea_popescu: aka, "Pork bellies go for ~$1 per pound, and so do you".
mircea_popescu: "These aren't words that an American or a European politician can utter in public, and perhaps not even whisper to their significant other while lying in bed, because the American eavesdroppers might overhear them, and then the politician in question would get the Dominique Strauss-Kahn treatment"

mircea_popescu: Just because I get a judgement, its a piece of paperI can try to put a lien on his house, take his car, but he has various homestead exemptions, he added, citing a law in Kentucky and elsewhere that exists to protect homeowners with deceased spouses who owe money to creditors.

mircea_popescu: now, it existed as a cleaner, more useful thing before being coopted for this purpose, of course. much like anything else that's now being used to make large population densities possible was a lot nicer before being shat on
mircea_popescu: anyway, the broadly fraudulent proposition that "you can make yourself better through X Y Z" be they hard work or prayer or anything else fundamentally exists as a direly needed social control mechanism. because the social cost of the ambitiously ungifted is plainly immense, societies have universally and often independently constructed this method to deal with the afflicted.
mircea_popescu: but they also don't have a retroactive abortion mechanism (not that they aren't trying, look at any ghetto ever).
mircea_popescu: all the avatars of orphaned boyhood, kids who grow up without a father have no idea what games to play are there.
mircea_popescu: and so... they "are crypto entusiasts" and "You can go much stronger than that" and so on.
mircea_popescu: why ? because intelligence and ambition are unrelated, and the ambitiously ungifted have absolutely no incentive in recognizing their shortcoming. it's not that it's cheaper to pretend. it's that literally no other alternative is present.
mircea_popescu: some of the anal children will instead make a "different" version of yachthing, which will consist of, for instance, birling.

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-06-2015#1181511 << there's a fascination with precarity i suspect the culprit here. to illustrate hwat i mean, suppose we take the island of hawaii cca 1815. at this point, the indigent savages are going about naked doing their indigent savagery, which does not much include murdering each other, and pointedly no writing or so on.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: just like on and on. the stupidity of us law enforcement is ever more fantastic.
mircea_popescu: just like it doesn't pay to NOT murder the chick you just raped.
mircea_popescu: mind publishing the plaintext somewhere, say on your blog ? the turd is uselessly opaque, and for instance google doesn'ty know it
mircea_popescu: this sort of service one couldn't pay for, but i doubt they providing it are aware. somehow it seems ot me it'd be pretty painful if they found out.
mircea_popescu:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-06-2015#1181418 << it's very funny to me, this. idiots are carefully averting other idiots' eyes from important shit. which is altogether a good thing, last fucking thing anyone wants is a deluge of "well meaning" idiots and other "enthusiasts". at least if the anyone in question stops and thinks about it for five minutes.

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=29-06-2015#1181240 << the one thing left loose is that AFTER such, rms is not saying, to me or to anyone, "hey, drepper moved to the dark side, glibc was forked". the last thing you'd expect rms to be indicted for would be an inclination to "make things work" and fold for convenience rather than stand for principle. nevertheless...
☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: but so far : i put the chain on new server, moved over binary to work it (hey, should work right ?). it sort-of worked but with weird errors. had to have the thing recompiled, which lead to indicating the chain being broken. except the chain checked out, up to the last block. turns out human error on the splicing of the chain copy, so the ul had to be redone (not all , but the index is large)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform re teh seed : ima hopefully have it either working or a better idea of wtf is the problem in ~3-4 hoursd.
