mircea_popescu: "we don't want your latest version. we want X. fuck you."
mircea_popescu: this is incidentally not a bug. it is a feature. it helps us put pressure on hw manufacturers too
mircea_popescu: "you want to be here, you must buy nvidia hf-333 for a video card" is perfectly okay.
mircea_popescu: or from a whole array of equivalent muppets all "doing their part".
mircea_popescu: he's not distinguishable from poettering trying to fuck up the linux userland
mircea_popescu: there's nothing magic about usgavin trying to fuck up the bitcoin stack.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field exactly. which is why i said, "when confronted with a bad software stack (pick a pogo, fix the os, run it there) is the correct solution not just for THAT one problem but for all the problems derived from the same source."
mircea_popescu: to SPECIFIED stacks of SPECIFIED software made by identified people.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i am actually suggesting people move their day to day computing AWAY from "linux" or from "gentoo" which are MEANINGLESSSSSSSSS
mircea_popescu: "same" for any definition of same that doesn't include, say, someone stealing your data.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field an "emulation" is basically "let's run a vps". noty.
mircea_popescu: i had no fucking idea, then, of exactly the state of rot in foss.
mircea_popescu: emulators are a bad idea. just keep mentioning parts in public.
mircea_popescu: but for all the problems derived from the same source.
mircea_popescu: and so what we're essentially doing when confronted with a bad software stack (pick a pogo, fix the os, run it there) is the correct solution not just for THAT one problem
mircea_popescu: this bs where we write down what we put into make or w/e does clearly not work.
mircea_popescu: the idea is, it seems clear to me that mere package-level specification is dysfunctional./
mircea_popescu: if it comes with a specification of parts that's also workable.
mircea_popescu: the idea is, for someone wanting to copy your environment, to be able to do so with minimal work
mircea_popescu: ascii_field listen, would you consider putting up reference compositions ?
mircea_popescu: ascii_field for that matter, you know, why the systemwide one ? the correct one! downloaded from nist.will.pwn.your.box.edu
mircea_popescu: is there some obscuritas in tenebrae switch or something needed on gcc when REALLY statically linking ?

mircea_popescu: this is the exact opposite of what statically linekd means.
mircea_popescu: that's one thing. the other thing is, what the fuck do you mean "x in statically linked application requires material from gcc used at the time"
mircea_popescu: nubbins` no i get that part, but why is some derp proving stuff to you and what sutff ? you running kyc nao ?
mircea_popescu: re " warning: Using 'getaddrinfo' in statically linked applications requires at runtime the shared libraries from the glibc version used for linking" ascii_field wtf is that shit !?
mircea_popescu: (also, it's not just the shape. plastics are pretty much ideal substrate for microorganisms)
mircea_popescu: this nickle and dime "we'll poke at your asshole a little if you go to an airport" thing isn't cutting it.
mircea_popescu: i think if isis took over say pennsylvania, and forced all sorts of bizarro stuff upon the citizenry, there'd finally be a huge sigh of satisfied submission.
mircea_popescu: the only way for them to get what they want is private initiative.

mircea_popescu: hopefully he gets his guts together and flies another plane into another usg office.
mircea_popescu: Because I had to hire TWO law firms, one for the criminal case and another one for the civil forfeiture case, so far, defending myself against the charge of not having a license in order to trade on localbitcoins has cost me almost $200,000. This is a large chunk of our retirement fund and our daughters college fund. This does not count the property (Bitcoins, cash, etc.) I may have to forfeit in civil forfeiture."
mircea_popescu: "The www.burtw.com web site is real. It was put up by my wife (JeanW on here now). To answer some questions posted above: I traded on localbitcoins.com. The prosecutor in the case claims I needed a business money transmittal license to do that. Instead of just notifying me that they though I might need a license they have charged me with a felony which could mean up to 5 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
