mircea_popescu: there mayn't be a THE dns register ; and nobody asked the usg anything.
mircea_popescu: point remains there is ABSOLUTELY no reason usg may maintain "the" dns register.
pete_dushenski: in other news, usg doesn't want to call michigan for trump or what ? final tally will be 306-228.
mircea_popescu: ie, declare usg impotent and act accordingly. "oh, they'll shut you down" "whatever, i'll open another".
mircea_popescu: also entirely bush-usg thing. has nothing to do with anything but the insanity.
asciilifeform: incidentally one major role of usgtronic 'dns' etc. is to make isp jurisdiction-hopping gnarlier.
asciilifeform: hey it's a handy 'who's who', in much the same way as one learns, working in usg laboratory dungeons for years, to tell all of the east asian folk apart from across hallway before even hello.
mircea_popescu: holy shit the insane pretzel logic of the progressive mind. so "voter suppression" is bad mmkay except how dare people show up to vote who don't live on "university" campuses or in other usg-aggitated ghettos! "demography is destiny" except of course when it ... "shouldn't be" ? voter opinion is sacrosanct and fundamentally true and good, except of course should it diverge from progressive idiocy. the electoral college system
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-09#1565108 << will be interesting, nobody living in usa ever lived yet to see any usg monstrosity repealed or even shrunk, it'd be a first. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: aka, usg got nothing.
trinque: USG belongs to the hairdo. I'm still curious if the hairdo belongs to CIA/NSA.
mircea_popescu: it all balances out, so that the usg can pretend it has a gdp and the oligarchy can pretend it's in business.

asciilifeform: enjoy, then, the nintendo. (or do as i did when i worked for usg and forced to use winblows xp box -- run gentoo/x11 in vmware, and emacs in ~that~...)
asciilifeform: in other lulz, https://archive.is/LnEXk >> somehow this never gets old, 'let's give our 0days to usgapple, usgmicroshit, etc. for pennies on the dollar' yet-again
asciilifeform: (summary: usg's most recent attempt to pound in the cock 'halfway', 'segwit', consists of prb churning out txen that result in 'anyone can spend' from trb pov, but miners are to 'agree never to process counter-softforkian tx', a la 'timelock' etc)
asciilifeform: they have own, very similar, wholly usg-powered racket.
trinque: he can rest easy; I'll put this on the desk of every contact I have in USG!1!11!
a111: Logged on 2016-11-05 13:32 mircea_popescu: "suciders" don't you know. that's totally how i'm going to list the dead usg agents if/when they actually get their balls in order and try a move : "here's a list of usg suiciders".
mircea_popescu: "suciders" don't you know. that's totally how i'm going to list the dead usg agents if/when they actually get their balls in order and try a move : "here's a list of usg suiciders". ☟︎
trinque: USG just went from supahpowah to pedowitch infested shitland in a few decades
mircea_popescu: funny reversal of the "mp is headed to jail" meme. turns out... the entire usg goes there first ? WHO COULD HAVE... predicted.
asciilifeform: incidentally this possibility is a perennial thorn in the side of usg, and they keep coming up with crackpot mega-surveillance schemes against it, most recently the ill-fated $2B balloon
ben_vulpes: as evidenced by the usg-blessed rocketry associations insistent whine that rockets may only go up.
asciilifeform: in that the 'cat and mouse' game continues, you come up with path, and usg bans formerly commonplace household crud, etc.
asciilifeform: in other noose, j. mcafee opens a mining pool for usg. (probably in exchange for non-prosecution for pyramidal flimflammery and/or non-extradition to the orc shithole of his past decade)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform works about as well as everything else usg.
asciilifeform: even more so than reading usg pravda.
asciilifeform: ~actual~ alternative affairs do not get airwave largesse from usg. they get banned, like isis-tentacle-not-pointed-ru-wards, and ddosed, like qntra.
asciilifeform: part of the recipe involves folks voluntarily falling on a certain grenade for the good of the tribe, and it is a very brutal one, they go to work in usg
asciilifeform: i am not expert on satmar, but i did once research the mormons, who also carried on imperium in imperio vs usg for a good long time.
mircea_popescu: but, very much unlike the other groups usg hates, these survived a long while.
mircea_popescu: they opposed collegiate education for girls, as well as voting in israel etc. i dunno any group teh usg hates moar.
mircea_popescu: anyway. the hope is that we don't have the problem of the soviets, specifically because the republic has ~no problem with the idiots leaving to be with the usg&co.
asciilifeform: but if your picture of it is based on the ubiquitous southkr/usg crapolade, you would imagine it is a cargo cult pygmy set with straw airplanes.
asciilifeform: but to appreciate it, you'd have to actually think re subj and not simply swallow south kr (usg) nonsense ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2016-11-01 15:03 mircea_popescu: dude reading usg-tard "business" idiots trying to be you know, radical and whatnot is fucking painful.
mircea_popescu: dude reading usg-tard "business" idiots trying to be you know, radical and whatnot is fucking painful. ☟︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-10-31#1560979 << how does this 'when' part work? martians drop 'care package' like usg drops ammo for isis ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: odds are teh usg wrote its own imaginary emails in an outlook server, if you mean the recent thing.
asciilifeform: in the tarball, list of pwned boxes, ip/hostname, creds for some usg proprietary backorifice-style client.
trinque: asciilifeform: really sounds like factional wars inside usg eh?
asciilifeform: https://archive.is/t0uXi << in other 'olds', usg ministry of wunderwaffen has cryptocrackpottery directorate. entertaining.
asciilifeform: apparently it was a usg-subsidized ersatz thing for soldiers home from ww2. the vendor vanished when the budget was cut.
pete_dushenski: given that it'd be 9 months since zooko's pathetic 'white paper' i thought usg.idjits had given up on him altogether, but i guess the etherape forced them to reconsider even their most ill-advised projects and implement anything at all if even just so they could keep talking about themselves
pete_dushenski: but in the same way that 'russia is doing propaganda but we're just having open debate that spreads democracy', so too does 'he has belief not me, i have usg.facts' 'work'
mats: additionally, usg continues to support the uae's meddling in yemen, with warships defending a blockade despite an ongoing humanitarian crisis https://www.theguardian.com/global-development-professionals-network/2015/jun/08/humanitarian-crisis-in-yemen-voices-from-the-conflict
mats: usg is busy maintaining a state of terror in the middle east
trinque: in other news, the bitcoin/usg.usd interface is on the move
asciilifeform: what's better than usgwallet ? usgwallet on fritz chip !11
asciilifeform: snoar, usg playing checkers with self.
mircea_popescu: somehow the fall of rutba failed to make it through the usg blocade, too.
asciilifeform: i will point out that the one ~admitted~ case of usg-sent-magic-packet-and-switched-on-the-mike involved a 'dumbphone'.
asciilifeform: https://archive.is/YyahC << one of the things the usg push for 'biometric auth' was for.
shinohai: It's ok when you do it under banner of the usg
asciilifeform: fella got usg bayonet up his starfish for a reason.
mircea_popescu: why the fuck would ANYONE confer legitimacy on the usg ffs.
trinque: nor is "usg shall surely be able to increase interest rates to mop up the money it printed"
trinque: look how bitcoin rips through USG bureaucracies, but this sha2 pill yet hides?
asciilifeform: self-admitted usg hilfswillige.
trinque: but windows is usg.approved
mircea_popescu: fucking factory model that gave us the usg in the end. "oh this is where we process things". damn it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah, but usg is always very keen on counting the jwzs on its own lists. nixon's "silent majority" and all that.
mats: i give it 1/2 odds usg packs their bags and goes home if isil is routed from mosul
mats: usg has done a good job helping the kurds hold down the area
mircea_popescu: if there isn't any infrastructure, the difference between "extremists" and "civilised people" is nil. much like when there aren't any balls, the difference between usg presidential hopefuls is nil.
mircea_popescu: china got infinite slaves. usg got infinite expectations. you know, like elliot, peace be upon his name.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform we're not discussing the aspie 14% fantasy here. usg dun got no money nor any workers.
ben_vulpes: look my ex employees bike trip from vancouver to mexico is more impressive than usg defence contractor turds
ben_vulpes: mats: has the usg defense industry made a thing that was ready for use against anything-thats-not-goatfuckers-with-twenty-year-old-mortars?
mircea_popescu: mats yeah, except the usg is in no position to offer anyone anything. but w/e, all sorts of charlies ready to suicide, so.
mats: prob not. helluva bet for the pesh - usg offers statehood in exchange for the lives of tens of thousands of their young men
lobbes: https://www.treasurydirect.gov/govt/resources/faq/faq_publicdebt.htm#DebtFinance << kek. usg now accepting gifts to reduce debt. checks accepted!
mats: this was after the local IA garrison was routed by isis and usg was concerned the embassy would be taken?
mircea_popescu: if the usg-sponsored "social sciences" weren't a pile of crap, someone'd have already written it.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo lol at usg online redo of tikrit offensive. lemme guess, they got a bunch of merceniaries
mircea_popescu: Framedragger i vaguely recall some data about how 1/3 of all encrypted comms on sr historically was from/to usg and its merry band of thieves under another name.
trinque: the usg.* of it all. insanity tentacles.
mircea_popescu: fucking usgtards, any more inept than this they'd qualify for the 1970s.
mats: meanwhile, few folks know or care that this particular chain events was probably precipitated by usg supplying saudis with arms used to strike a funeral that resulted in 142 dead
mats: i wonder how usg will react when uss cole pt 2 comes around
trinque: if there's a usg.antichrist it's him.
ben_vulpes: usg.quilmes
mircea_popescu: and in other "the imaginary usg" news, http://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2016/10/10/afghan-police-half-u-s-funded-afghan-troops-war-ravaged-helmand-dont-exist/
mircea_popescu: and his example (merkel ; esp as seen in how she ruined germany to soak up the net result of usg's terrorism) is well chosen, too. "feminine" politics, leadership and everything else is two notches below suicide.
asciilifeform: stop using --get-key-from-usg.
ben_vulpes: comment section even enforces usg.identity
mircea_popescu: shinohai the strat is to go after cases. "we have these here three horny fifteen year olds, ergo your site is banned. what, they're three out of fifty million ? ha-hA! you're not on the usg list of google apple etc, so your 50mn don't count. only fb's 50 million (which they misrepresent as 5bn) count. LISTS!!"
mircea_popescu: usg is the ultimate lolcow factory.
mircea_popescu: from littoral combat ships to convenience paper cups, all the way and whichever way. the usg way!
mircea_popescu: they don't seem to take very long in adding the official usg holes to "their" packages.
mircea_popescu: because if you don't have it it doesn't do that ; and from a cursory inspection it turns out NOBODY packages it. because why would they, usg has its own designs.
asciilifeform: hey wasn't it mircea_popescu who (correctly) pointed out that there are no usable gold teeth in executed usg corpses. and now he's trying to salvage rathead linux ??
mircea_popescu: adlai vomit is the notion that you can usg and survive. you can't. if you do anything whatsoever, without any exception at all, that involves them, the only endgame for you is losing it.
mircea_popescu: very simply put : if you use usg.vc.* which * means ANYHING, then anything (which means ANYTHING!) you touch, including your own money, your own bitcoin, your own penis, wife, life, whatever - can be destroyed in the process. and probably will be.
mircea_popescu: which is the point here : using ANYTHING made by usg.vc.* is risky, and opens one to various liabilities downstream. including among them - that you will be unwound.
mircea_popescu: and in general - "innovation" on top of bitcoin is extremely risky an endeavour. the item itself is the heart of reaction ; and the notion that "nobody would dare" unwind the "developments" of usg.tards runs into the plain statement that i certainly will.
asciilifeform: i suspect they are slowly phasing in 'dude X was in place Y at time T' anti-hooliganism/generic preparation for usgschwitz tracking systems.
asciilifeform: it is, likely, because usg does not like to use stolen key to sign its 'tailored victim' crud, far too attributable
