mircea_popescu: and if i recall you protested that joe stack did not do any damage at all, let alone disproportionate
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the point of the pressure is not the damage. merely, civilians that dun like da police.

mircea_popescu: under the very real pressure of a million tiny joe stacks
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and they'll be 60% privateer on a tripled budget and it still won't be enough
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=25-06-2015#1175691 << this is a very good argument ☝︎

mircea_popescu: mmmkay.
mircea_popescu: what's the outlook on what they can make if usg dole dries up ?
mircea_popescu: doubtful, but anyway. it's a question of when.
mircea_popescu: weren't you arguing that it hasn't stopped when i first proposed this ?

mircea_popescu: da fuckiung world we live in. viasat has been doing satellites forever. google is a newcomer in the field. spacex is a newcomer in general. yet the viasat ceo has to explain why he, the expert, is doing what he's doing. the newb schmucks aren't expected to explain themselves.
mircea_popescu: why, they're cute. everyone watches their "journals" like kitten pics.
