that
they're all
the more peculiar
the less
talent
they actually have, which makes it rather hard
to explain why entirely ordinary people should be so very peculiar in
the first place."
trinque: I just added qntra
to
the custom search panel
thing explicitly; let's see if
that did anything

☟︎ shinohai: I only spoke with him a few
times, but he seemed ok.
Twas reading on
tardstalk where someone doxed him over a 5 BTC loan or something.
BingoBoingo: shinohai: He's some dutch kid kind of on
the margins of everything
trinque: I used
that for search a while back, ought
to
try it again
shinohai: I switched search
to ddg on my bot, but I
think I broke it some
time back.

the aggregated browsing history of my WoT
than google

The Google!
trinque: site doesn't work with
the google search API
shinohai: Hey BingoBoingo ... wasn't Boelens a former associate/employee of
TF ?
BingoBoingo: Come on
this is politics, you can't believe anything being said by anybody involved other
than blowing stuff up is fun.
BingoBoingo: Yeah. A socialist funding organization. Been using
that on qntra for
the Vessenes' scam since... forever?
BingoBoingo: Not because it is important now, but for
the later lolz when
the dead
try
to do something else
BingoBoingo: Why am I learning about
that in
this channel and not a submission?
shinohai: Looks like Bruce Fenton is resigning as director of
teh Phoundation.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform:
They are hard up.
Their radio advertising has definitely fallen off
these past few weeks. Likely can't afford it.
mircea_popescu: it is wholly unreasonable
to discuss
things you don't understand ; it is disqualifying
to not understand certain
things.
BingoBoingo: and if
Trump-Clinton can do it so can Le Pen
BingoBoingo: "'Likely next French President Marine Le Pen (WOT:nonperson) has gone on
the record stating
that she would like a ban on Bitcoin. Remember kids
that National Socialism is still socialism with all its kleptographic
tendencies intact."
mircea_popescu: well... odds are he's a principal in a charity somewhere
that cooked
the books. "seemed
the right
thing
to do" "i just
took people's word" "i just wanted
to" etc.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it's a major factor in
the "i can't explain why
the fuck
this guy went all usgtronic".
mircea_popescu: there's more. in any case - let it be said faux charities are
today as were a century ago
the principal
tax fraud mechanism.
mircea_popescu: the "assets match ~30% of
theoretical income" is a major flag ;
the periodic name changes a slightly less major flag.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform here mule claims
to have received donations
that never showed up. win-win as
they say.
mircea_popescu: except hey, for as long as
thiel's connected, who's gonna rustle his clientelle.
mircea_popescu: eventually govt deal obtained
through
tammany hall collapses an' he goes
to jail.
mircea_popescu: not a bad film ; cagney's a dope, friend of his offers him a position in management for a company where all he does is read
the nespapers.
mircea_popescu: atm looks a lot more like someone in
tax shelters is using
this
to hide from a few mn worth of
tax liability ;
than
thiel or anyone else wanting
to give yudks as much as a half smoked marlboro.
mircea_popescu: i spent a lot of my life going
through exactly
this sort of bs.
mircea_popescu: "all frustrated at
the heads using him for a sockpuppet, runs off with corp cc, is
then forced
to give it back"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nah,
they employ one catamite.
the lack of payroll
tax is a dead giveaway.
mircea_popescu: o look at
that, "salaries" 258k ; payroll
tax and employee benefits 22k.
mircea_popescu: we now have a precise sum of yudkowsky's
total interest in
this venture.
mircea_popescu: it was prepared by some obscure los gatos ca house (snow, bittleston &co) and is every bit as ridiculous as
the rest.
mircea_popescu: i have
the "independent accountant review" right here.
mircea_popescu: bullshit
through and
through, i have no idea how
they even summon
the gall
to publish
this unauditable nonsense.
mircea_popescu: anyway,
the list as publishes sums
to a suspiciously round 6,008,809.
the assets claimed are ~30%
that.
mircea_popescu: anyway :
the numbers don't match ;
total assets in 2014 ~2mn.
mircea_popescu: i doubt it, seeing how
they actually credit him for ripple.
mircea_popescu: old
time bitcoin scammer ; kicked out around
the
time of
the great mp scammer purge of 2013
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform for all
the psycho-pomp,
the whole
thing reads
to me rather infantile altogether. dumbass needed
to crash, ended up crashing at apartment of derpy local chav and his whorish mahalagioaica.
