mircea_popescu: in other news and fwiw -- mp's stable of expert pic interpreters diagnosed the usgtard face smashing brigades as "likely oakland, maybe some rural oregon"
mircea_popescu: someone would not rather the usg problem quietly evaporate ?
asciilifeform: no shit, hungy, they only recently came out of latest usg-organized famine, 90s
a111: Logged on 2016-11-01 22:30 asciilifeform: but to appreciate it, you'd have to actually think re subj and not simply swallow south kr (usg) nonsense
asciilifeform: which is why their attempts to build cheap, effective usg navy erasers is painted as 'aggression'
mircea_popescu: you know, just like the usg wouldn't sell it anything but the dregs for a century.
mircea_popescu: mats this is how the usg lost ukraine, iksn't it.
mircea_popescu: usg has a lenghty history of monumentally inept intl politics
mats: i have been thinking usg destabilization of dprk is a great way to jam a fork in the party's eye
mircea_popescu: so you save fiddy bux that'd have paid her rent in the time you don't cost the usg 10k ? umm
mircea_popescu: all sorts of things work as cp, including bitcoin, heads of usg "operatives", etc.
mircea_popescu: hey, it is EXACTLY what the usg banking world did.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-14#1643578 << no. AGAIN. large orgs ie your usg.* friends CAN NOT impl;ement this. MPs can implemenrt this, ie men who beat women and keep slaves. they AND THEM ONLY may implement this. ☝︎
Framedragger: 'safe' as in usg hacking into machine doesn't do anything.
mircea_popescu: there are, more broadly and more sadly, no robotic human or alien solution s available to dealing with the usgtard to his satisfaction. because he's worth less than a pig and demands more than a duchess.
mircea_popescu: you know, by the everfriendly usg, for instance.
mircea_popescu: that's good for usgcoin!
ben_vulpes: "modern banking is wholly owned subsidiary of usg" "what? no it's not" "yes it is: https://medium.com/@msuiche/the-nsa-compromised-swift-network-50ec3000b195" "...oh but that's different somehow"
trinque: can't tell him from adam, or usg.gamblingprohee
asciilifeform: re usg.'journalists' 'helping' snowdens, e.g., 'If you want to set up a secure way to communicate (which I think every journalist should) the best method is IM with an OTR encryption. You’ll need: a Jabber account, Pidgin IM client, and OTR plug-in.'
mircea_popescu: in btc only to immediately turn around and put that behind the usg idiocy du jour.)
mircea_popescu: (no, by no means the first case of "let's take republic wealth and "sell"/give it to usg". our short but rich history is littered with that sort of dorkitude, from http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=from%3Abugpowder to name your poison, which is how "taking investors" ie, allowing outsiders into the wealth even got such a bad name in the first place. the last fucking thing i want is MORE mentally stunted midgits making a profit
mircea_popescu: (the link is particularly funny for the amounts. when it comes to turkey dollars, usg is really poor. 40k here, 10k there, 5k overages accounted for --- a far cry from the "we lost one trillion dollars in 100 bills that never existed" dept of war fare.)
mircea_popescu: o look at that -- wikipedia page re "orange revolution" includes no verbiage of usg involvement ; mentions vaguely "russian nationalist groups".
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-13#1642960 <<< yeah, it's quite evidently usg burning one of their few remaining good exploits once they finally figured out it was leaked and used by republican interest. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: trinque that's accurate, actually. "shit improved by the radical communist branch of usg". a sort of "Bitcoin foundation" avant la lettre, "GNu the african antelope".
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-13#1642884 << lolz. camp fed fellow, expert in usg-bitcoin issues and items of interest ? mmkay. ☝︎
asciilifeform: sadly there is no automatic means to discover which of the proggies contain exploitable invocations, other than with hard grindstone sweat (or usg's automated tool!1111)
mircea_popescu: no, but lots of usg-tronic "corporations" do.
mircea_popescu: i'm using the name to represent the corruption. you know who sets it, usg agents set it. and for the obvious why.
asciilifeform: usg ate the swiss long ago, now in the process of milking the brand.
mod6: everything usg is fucktarded, phony or both.
mircea_popescu: i can scarcely believe how utterly fucktarded usg platforms are. it's eerie.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, thinking about it, it'd seem to me the only possible explanation of http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-09#1641002 is that the golden dozen lacked ~any conception whatsoever~ of the enmity of mit. like dodo birds, went happily to the necessary eventual slaugther because failed ot perceive usg must be destroyed not ignored. in a field arbitrarily (and perhaps not exactly accidentally) limited in this manner, they cultiv ☝︎
asciilifeform: just as 1850s usg ain't today's.
asciilifeform: limits, aha. # of usg battleships sent to the bottom thus far : 0
asciilifeform: https://www.safeschools.com << lol!! ^ usg-sponsored greatfirewall shared by several school districts
asciilifeform: aseriousgogetta (~Kimberley@ip-64-134-144-245.public.wayport.net) has joined #trilema << hey mircea_popescu , can haz hammer ? every time that monkey's connection cycles, i feel like a chimp is throwing shit in my face
asciilifeform: (usg shipped old gas shells to 'moderate rebels' , for phreee, to 'atrocitize' asad)
asciilifeform: 'usg did it!1' 'putler did it!11' etc
mircea_popescu: same thing usg issues, im sure.
mircea_popescu: pretty obvious alphabet co. maintains a whole department of "usg cover provisioning"
mircea_popescu: obviously, "i choose to live in usg" means... you chose to live in usg. "but i had no other options". hurr.
asciilifeform: looks like usg has ~everything starting with texas and below coloured in.
scriba: Logged on 2017-03-31: [15:30:44] <ben_vulpes> live by the amusing crazy of ms, die by the amusing crazy of usg
ben_vulpes: live by the amusing crazy of ms, die by the amusing crazy of usg
CompanionCube wonders what the best key(s) to get phuctored would be. USG/NSA''s? Intel/AMD's signing keys?
asciilifeform: phunphakt: all usg civil servants, of whatever description, are Officially required to pretend that unhappened leaks neverhappened
asciilifeform: meanwhile, usg decides that it only needs ~one~ GE... https://archive.is/VHvz8 << RIP westinghouse.
a111: Logged on 2017-03-29 22:15 asciilifeform: but there was that old mircea_popescu thread. where, approx, 'a dollar usg collects from mr.pleb in tax isn't so that usg can spend a dollar, it can spend $trillion, or ten, without collecting anything; it collects the dollar because otherwise mr.pleb will use it to bid up turkeys'

mircea_popescu: anyway, to not misguide noobs : litvenko, usg agent that got murdered by the fsb in london, was poisoned with polonium. the alpha emitter effect of the metal, while present, was not necessarily. polonium is chemically toxic, much more so than cyanide, ld50 being in the microgram range (ie 1000ths of a grain of salt).
mircea_popescu: japan is actually finding itself in a very great conjuncture, reminiscent of early 1900s. both russia and china need it. the usg... who cares.
mircea_popescu: if usg asks for an apple, you bid a dollar, and nobody underbids you, they'll decide they must "inspect" to "investigate" etcetera, and won't you agree to a three dollar fine ?
mircea_popescu: if usg asks for an apple and you bid a dollar and then they decide to define "apple" as a sack of potatoes, you owe two dollars in merchandise.
asciilifeform: expect moar 'back lucks' as usg burns the furniture.
mircea_popescu: the scam is very fuinny in particular because usg-run toshiba subsidiary westinghouse negotiated "fixed price" contracts with local baronies ; they happen to understate actual cost by at least 60%. unsurprisingly, the "undue enrichment" concepts were temporarily suspended. had it gone the other way, and toshiba managed to make off with 250% what it was owed, it'd be all "Corruption scandal" and whatnot, of course.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: usg will loot everyone who is still worth anything who has any vulnerable limbs in usgdom -- just as it looted 'olympus'
mircea_popescu: (basically, long story short, usg financed a coupla units in georgia and ncarolina with japan's money, ain't giving it back. loss is whatever you want it to be, 3 to 10 bn) ☟︎
mircea_popescu: in other news, toshiba seems headed for the ex-bin. after the "we made up 7bn profits over the past 6 years and are really losing 5bn a year atm" 2016 lulz, they've announced a 3.5bn looting by the usg this year.
mircea_popescu: it doesn't fall in not because hull, like boat, but because mutual reinforcement. which is imo the idea of "maintain world" for us too. clearly tmsr world will be bigger than usg/whatever world. if it is also sufficiently rigid, gravity or seaworthyness are no longer considerations : it can't fall in because of itself not leaving room to.
asciilifeform: invented, incidentally, by d00d who was fired from professorship by usg colonizers of south kr; fled north.
mircea_popescu: rather than the dorky usgistan cover lyurics.
mp_en_viaje: similar in that they're not covered by "patents" in the usg misstatement of the concept ; similar in that they were originally produced by one man in his handmade lab glass ; similar in that they cost a quarter a yearly dose and solve an actual problem
a111: Logged on 2017-03-24 19:28 mircea_popescu: afghanistan fambly lived happily for 1k/year pre usg tardation, for instance.
mircea_popescu: afghanistan fambly lived happily for 1k/year pre usg tardation, for instance. ☟︎
asciilifeform: ( from luser pov -- price is 'exactly same', landlord simply collects the usg payola )
asciilifeform: kinda hilarious, while the two 'cans of campbell soup' duke it out over massive-blox vs elephantine-blox, boring ol' workaday usgolade, e.g. 'pki', quietly made it into all prb variants
deedbot: http://qntra.net/2017/03/usg-nsa-head-rogers-perjured-self-on-eavesdropping/ << Qntra - USG.NSA Head Rogers Perjured Self On Eavesdropping
mircea_popescu: vs "usg agency, why did you eavesdrop on trump and then lie about it and then lie about other things ?" "oh, WE ALWAYS DO THAT"
mircea_popescu: and the answer is, because twitter is part of usg, not part of the internet.
deedbot: aseriousgogetta voiced for 30 minutes.
ben_vulpes: !!up aseriousgogetta are you going to keep joining and parting all morning?
mircea_popescu: typical campbell soup can strategy. "please agree usg matters through the avenue of agreeing it's either usg.corp1 or else usg.corp2 ! engage the controversy!"
mircea_popescu: random usg "company" that's supposed to matter in the sense that idiots will pretend so.
asciilifeform: build in microshit vs, even. (this includes usg's, as was well laid out for exhibit in the latest dump)
mircea_popescu: more like, the usg is under the pressure to appear to be doing something, has settled on "chipping", ie, o noes if an eth splits off bitcoin that'll be bad for bitcoin!!!1
asciilifeform: 'let's take the most useless golden toilet in usgdom and BUILD BIGGER BETTER ORCER STRONGER'
a111: Logged on 2017-03-15 00:29 mircea_popescu: pretty fine example of exactly why warren was so vocal (item was strictly a barony created so elizabeth warren could be barron OF SOMETHING). this cfpb item spent 55mn on "renovations" of its hq, ie more than the gsa spent that year on everything the usg owns ; spent immensely on travel (which is not something they do). the chairman is supposed to not be removable by the president except "for cause" (meanwhile that got strick
a111: Logged on 2017-03-16 22:55 mircea_popescu: yeah, i have nfi why teh putin isn't flooding the usg with red notices for usgtards.
mircea_popescu: yeah, i have nfi why teh putin isn't flooding the usg with red notices for usgtards. ☟︎
asciilifeform: in other lulz, even though preet is out, preet-style lulzindictments of folx nowhere near usgistan, are still a thing : https://cryptome.org/2017/03/dokuchaev-001.pdf ( turdalicious fax scan, no plain text available yet afaik )
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what'd the usg love more than for it to fade! to become "technologies"! to etc.
asciilifeform: it's precisely how all successful usgizations went -- slow, frogboiling replacement of a protocolic guarantee with a promisetronic one that is Just As Good (until it isn't, at which point you're long fucked)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i am by now convinced that once so-called judge corpses start floating on the east river your retort will be "so what, everyone dies eventuallyt and everything ends up in a river eventually". which is fine and great for you, but makes for HORRIBLE qntra. because it's so indescribably fucking stupid, and because it's so indescribably fucking stupid in the exact manner that produced usg.
BU_lulz: u guys think the usg is pumping alt coins lately?
mircea_popescu: en) and, lulzily, they came up with a system to "guess" based on reasons (such as zip codes and last names) who is a black applicant for loans, and then fined various usg agencies masquerading as banks by the 100s of millions for these alleged abuses. and they got it too, because settlement culture. and they didn't, of course, pay as much as a dime to the "estimated" victims, they being you know, "estimated" aka hallucinated,

mircea_popescu: anyway, and hence http://trilema.com/2013/stage-n-bitcoin-exists/ and all the other countless mallets to the head of the agents of usgistan.
asciilifeform: folx with ~actual~ wealth (vs, say, usg payola, a la sv derps) tend to be ~very~ risk-averse when it comes to storage.
asciilifeform: Framedragger: remember, we aren't usg, don't have to STANDARDIZE FOR ALL TIME!!!111

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo o wow don't tell me the "bitcoin crashes because usg postures re its own paper bitcoin-ersatz" thing failed to last the week
BingoBoingo: I kinda thought it would have went through because USG needs more thrashing about in desperation.
mircea_popescu: anyway, in other lulz, what is the winklevoss / silbert / etc usgian dorks claim to fame now ?
mircea_popescu: in other usg, http://68.media.tumblr.com/f807573edb2b0f7a29f5ff72d97f83c1/tumblr_nhoc41C1Bp1r539hzo1_1280.jpg
mircea_popescu: this is a fundamental and inescapable problem of usg-style hash functions. stuff like mpfhf mitigate THAT problem, but at a humongous cost.
mircea_popescu: ie, the reason usgtard is all "oh, random is not really broken" when phuctor came out exactly reduces to "well, it's fucking broken, but you should see the filesystem!"
a111: Logged on 2017-02-27 12:10 mircea_popescu: dude, they fucking gutted them. olympus agreed to pay the usg ~70 billion yen in fines, and install obama's children as an "independent outside monitor". whole corp market cap being you know, 1.3trn or some shit. who the fuck pays 5% of the market cap as a fine already, what is this, Совет Экономической Взаимопомощи ?
