a111: Logged on 2016-07-18 00:29 asciilifeform: it is known to me, for instance, that
usg is presently spending stupendous sums on 'biometric' profiling of typing pattern, for as many victims as possible.
mircea_popescu: think : who's raping who here ? the game is not "does
usg rape us or doesn't it". it's "have raped it yet ?" not binary but unary, only one final state available.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform & other interested parties : turkish
usg nonsense firmly quashed, screenshot "mainstream" news sites if you wanna lulz art them later.
a111: Logged on 2016-07-15 21:03 asciilifeform: i'ma guess it now services
usg (e.g., 'general dynamics' army laptops) solely.
mircea_popescu: so moved on to phase 2 of the
usg.asset cycle, where he's now dormant and periodically fed contribution vomit.
mircea_popescu: i wish to buy caged "modern feminist" by the pound. eventually,
usg WILL sell this product to me.
mircea_popescu: anyway - i wonder at what point of turning the vice around its ballsac,
usg finally relents, admits that it is way the fuck cheaper and therefore better to be friends with the smart people, throws idiots to the dogs. so we get license to capture humanities majors from horseback on campus, and they get the default immunity they like to pretend they currently have.
a111: Logged on 2016-07-15 19:28 trinque: I criticize "
USG" as a category; it barely defines anything
a111: Logged on 2016-07-15 19:09 asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: recall that
usg sits on top of egyptian pyramid - sized heap of fpga. why not, then, hijack an old, familiar scrypt-based altcoin, and proclaim 'see, YES WE CAN!111' etc
pete_dushenski: you can only say that
usg is 'literally' effective if you degrade the definition of effective to the point where it's what petrocheese is to french brie
trinque: I criticize "
USG" as a category; it barely defines anything
☟︎ trinque: "
usg" launched a saturn v once
trinque: "sucks because
usg" is blunt and useless analysis
trinque: "
usg" is not a cohesive whole
pete_dushenski: i hesitate to ask what
usg understands 'cryptoanalysis' to mean in practical terms because it's hard to fathom that it can either think or act on such terms, but...
pete_dushenski: hard to believe that brokeback
usg is spending $bn on anything useful just to store in industrial warehouse until majick ltc day cometh
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: is it clear to you that
usg has edge with scrypt over chicoms ?
mircea_popescu: you don't think nsa lost, or
usg lost, or any of the imperial heavenly legions ever lost.
ben_vulpes: but like cold fusion, railguns keep
usg contractors in the procurement pipeline.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-12#1501981 << the power of shitcoins : much like bitcoin makes everyone a bitcoiner, be they
usg.nsa or whatever else, just so scamcoin makes everyone a scammer. they may start as "white hat" or "robin hood" or whatever, but in the end the dark nature of the item compels them.
☝︎ mats: also, what makes you think it was a
usg rocket?
a111: Logged on 2016-07-11 16:29 asciilifeform: which is why you can get
usg or eurounion to cough up $B for a crackpot machine, but not $1M for you to sit in a chalet in the alps and schrodingerate
mircea_popescu: reminiscent of how
usg.software works. "so, you want openssh and utf-fonts via which package again ?"
a111: Logged on 2016-07-11 16:05 asciilifeform: and afaik, liberasty aside, k really did create a good chunk of the 20th c.
usg-branded corpse pile. what sense it even makes to discuss 'war criminals' without his picture on it ?
Framedragger: asciilifeform: re. k, true that. and what with my home country being a
usg bitch, i recall my high school's history teacher (who also was its director) being basically in love with kissinger, quoting him left and right and openly admiring him - incl. his person, i think. wonder if he still does the same. ah, good times..
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron at the very least the devil can't testify. who cares what the
usg thinks you've done, nobody's liable to ask it, nor may it likely acquire a voice without losing itself.
☟︎ danielpbarron: heh, really hard to say. I haven't been keeping in contact with him at all. Come to think of it I'd want to ask him ahead of time if he thinks registering a church with the
USG is against the Word or not (he's not a big fan of
USG -- prolly a plus)
mircea_popescu: that's the fucking scary thing there - he got all the good jews, leaving some shitty jews to fill the void. it's ~exactly what the
usg did to the us : killed the competent mobsters, now there's inexplicable problems.
a111: Logged on 2014-08-16 02:38 mircea_popescu: in short : your notion that sitting with the
usg is safe and joining the rebels is dangerous is fundamentally broken. sitting with the
usg is safe except if the rebels get the upper hand.
a111: Logged on 2015-07-24 00:19 mircea_popescu: and i'll say this to assuage your doubts : i am the man who said "you are not safe, for we know where you live". a year and change later, reality has borne my saying : the entire
usg employee list, leaked. etc.
mircea_popescu: kinda looking forward to the obvious application of
usg drone depicted supra
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform how about taking away ALL weapons from ALL
usg-paid ANYONE.
mircea_popescu:
usg nightmare scenario is exactly this, highly defensive "everything's a fortress and with gun ports" bourgeois restructuring of the town.
mircea_popescu: atm all hopes pinned on microsoft-sponsored "devcon" for the scamcoin. basically, mit can either get another
usg agency involved or they're dropping it, they lost all they were gonna lose on it already.
mircea_popescu: possibly the most
usg-tronic item in existence today. i'd rather have doberman patrols.
mircea_popescu: ie, the original idea was much more a la tmsr than a la
usg.
mircea_popescu: unscrupulous swindler (ie,
usg) promises the latter that he's representative of the former, meanwhile he doesn't even have film in the "camera".
mircea_popescu: and if there is, i'ma say what. not fucking
usg, or for that matter pete rizzo.
mircea_popescu:
usg wants to save poloniex (ie, the owners, while somewhat tools, dun wanna be all-the-way tools) so you know, it'll just delist ethereum and that's that.
BingoBoingo: Anyways there's also Ver's thing continuing along on all the Pinoy SEO
USG.MIT can afford
a111: Logged on 2016-07-04 12:45 mircea_popescu: but anyway, asciilifeform 's prediction proceeding right on schedule. the "indepedndent"
usg tool and "ethereum developer" finds time to discuss bitcoin as that "innovative project" burns to the ground. because truly it wasn't all about trying to fuck up bitcoin all along. nothing of the sort, ethereum was a serious effort by serious people with their own heads and etc.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: meanwhile, the
usg counts "corruption" against me. i don't.
mircea_popescu: it is an absurd situation, to hate the
usg and propose "independent people" are the solution, then look at what "soberania y patria bla bla" idiots make and decide you'd rather see a slave empire in its place.
mircea_popescu: anyway, back to the issue : the flow was "ship to montevideo ferry to ba", but this changed recently, and likely to change more in the future. current president is
usg tool and pretty firmly set on raping the locals
mircea_popescu: on the other hand, considerations of powers that wanna be, who really aren't, such as cixi wanting it to be "quiter than x" or hilary clinton wanting it to "not destroy
usg because the us understood as
usg was always great" will also not be considered.
mircea_popescu: i'm not about to import
usg.retardation for any reason.
mircea_popescu: the botnets are a lot closer to the result, in practice, than
usg ever got.
mircea_popescu: so, strategically, we (as in, humans, people, we) are confronted with an adversary (ie, socialist state,
usg, aliens, the devil incarnate, pure evil, etc) that predicates its relevancy upon targeted computing denial (see
http://trilema.com/2014/the-problem-of-enforcement/ ; and also
http://trilema.com/2015/mika-epstein-aka-ipstenu-is-a-thoroughly-clueless-poser/ re the ddos "we won't fix" and so on )
