asciilifeform: soooo usg finally made the old man 'offer he couldn't refuse'.
asciilifeform: the added lolspice is also from usg's inability to admit that, e.g., princeton admission, is ration of nomenklatura membership
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: well no shit. but the usg variant specifically lacks a mechanism for 'you are competent but sorry we're out of jam'
mircea_popescu: in their view, strangely mirrored by various other failed warrior castes, such as the manchuku or the usg, translation is a whore's job.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, looking forward to more "{Security researchers|IT specialists|Computer experts} with {University of Derp in Derpistan|USG.RedHat.Whatever|The HTTPS Internet} published {Literotica|Fetlife|OkCupid|Ask.fm|Phuctor|whatever} {database|userlist|secret excel codebase} publicly! We don't have a copy because we don't believe in things, we prefer names."
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: lulzily, somehow usg has not caught up with the profusion of cheap thermovisors that it itself (via massive subsidies) caused, and they've no meaningful shielding
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> (incidentally why should usg be doing ~all~ of the thermo-journalism!? time for free men to do their share..?) << this is quite so.
asciilifeform: (incidentally why should usg be doing ~all~ of the thermo-journalism!? time for free men to do their share..?)
asciilifeform: ^ the lock is the mandatory usg lock, see logz where i described it in agonizing detail
asciilifeform: some fella's selling miles of it. usg surplus.
asciilifeform: re: the hn thread and 'her-assment' - folks living under usg are quite like children under drunkard father - they learn to 'build fences' (orthodox jew concept) around 'what might upset him'
asciilifeform: my current understanding is that it is nearly certain that a summer intern has been sent to write a usg c-s.
asciilifeform: so my reaction to parading through firstclass is similar to seeing 'zil' limousine, or its usg equiv.
mircea_popescu: anyway. i can readily see usg womanchild losing her shit because it's the first time in her life that he encounters the implacable "sit down and shut up, worm"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it ALSO is the absolute matrix-mother of ALL usg-tronic "intellectual propety"
mircea_popescu: otherwise, as you know, art projects, they're worth exactly what the [usg] rich patron says they're worth, for as long as that lasts (not usually long)

asciilifeform: (i.e. the only folks seriously willing to pay for serious crapware analysis are usg and cn, and i'm not in either's wot)
asciilifeform: with that in mind, i am good at a reasonable breadth of things, but again 99% of the employment in them, in as far as i can access, is usg.
asciilifeform: consider, 99+% of the employment in my field is raw usg.
asciilifeform: and when i say 'show me a place ~not~ ruled by usg muppets where a cultured man might want to live' mircea_popescu laughs.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-06 04:46 mircea_popescu: he's competent, economically. better, what's that. he's a faithful usg muppet, working to make the place more in line with washington's interest.

BingoBoingo kind of disappoint alf declined to comment on Petrocheese qntra http://qntra.net/2016/05/usg-stockpile-of-petrocheese-hits-new-high/
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform how many of these until we just declare usg da offices a criminal entreprise wholesale and start prosecuting them for narco crimes ?
trinque is very curious about what *other* organizations exist which cut through the various usg entities
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Nah, its USG. All those sportsball movies they watch with their future fatgendered kids are getting to their heads. The formula is it is never the most athletic player that gets the moment in the big game. Its the loser who "wants it" more. I blame Emilio Estevez.
mircea_popescu: anyway, is it a mere coincidence that some derp posing as a "free journalist" in berlin is the usg point man for the rsa diddling efforts ?
mircea_popescu: the principal property of the usg.misc is that it collapses under own weight, so.
mircea_popescu: i guess a bunch of weirdos have the usg to thank for their wholly delusional belief that child porn is "big business", somehiw.
mircea_popescu: at some point, esp the smaller markets, were 2/3 usg by mass
mircea_popescu: send men to where they have leverage - such as by exposing a whole swathe of usg "law enforcement" derps.
asciilifeform: ^ usg retreating from pushing ecc claptrap ?!
asciilifeform: usg has own proclamation
asciilifeform: sooooo here's a thought. perhaps esp. for mircea_popescu. usg luuuvvvvvvs puttin' neutron alarms everywhere. but what if the ... other side... set off 100,001 of them at once, on day x, with, e.g., pocket farnsworth's devices?
mircea_popescu: ascii_butugychag it's some anon russian guy. if you think rando usg endowment is a better shot...
mircea_popescu: the notion that usg's word vs tmsr's word has a chance in hell is lulzy.
mircea_popescu: everyone gotta eat, and the general majority of these people eats at usg.*
deedbot: [Qntra] USG Stockpile Of Petrocheese Hits New High - http://qntra.net/2016/05/usg-stockpile-of-petrocheese-hits-new-high/
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-03#1461729 <<< and usg is "the replacement republic", at least in its own mind. what of it. ☝︎
asciilifeform: and 9 times out of 10 usg.
mircea_popescu: but no, it's entirely out of the question any sort of natural event is at work here. usg.nsa been diddling not merely angela merkel's phone,
asciilifeform: usg luuuuvs to know at the borders if you're pissing neutrons (note what price of helium on the market did in past 20 yrs. us dhs bought up most of it, for tubes) ☟︎
mircea_popescu: the mirror relation between "world peace" and "bitcoin" in its treatment in usg agitprop sources being, of course, striking.
mircea_popescu: thus, undermines [what's left of] "world peace", as the usg defines the term. this after the 2000s saw the underminiung of the other chunk, with china, russia and now iran making carriers useless.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the usg is very worried about it, because think about it - unshieldable missile target.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> (and happily detect, e.g., neutron flux) << it undermines peace you see. for some definitions of peace which reduces to "usg makes all the war"
asciilifeform: usg would rather that folks did not have cheap, low-power geigerz that never wear out
asciilifeform: usg verboten !
mircea_popescu: which is why all the "get people to sign" is so paramount to the whole activity of usg thuggery.
asciilifeform: i dun see the famine tho, it'll be a usg/cn recreditatron
mircea_popescu: it has the unintended side effect of locking smart bois into local minimums, also, and eventually spawns some variation of cccp/usg, but still. on the basic-est level, it prevents caveman who killed a mammooth from tearing out his spleen.
asciilifeform: interestingly usg does not publish murder stats divided into ~civilians~ and not
mircea_popescu: why the fuck would an advertiser pay for this i have no idea, but teh google is mining it to the hilt. and i suspect they're either going to get usg payola or start reporting ever-worsening quarters because they moneyz just isn't there anymore.)
asciilifeform: usg packs them into tiny space, then yes, clearly, usg control is 'necessary' to keep'em from colliding.
mircea_popescu: the usg, ever more distant from reality. after michael moore-level break from reality of the 90s, moving on to complete psychosis. soon to reach best korea level of mental confusion, im sure that fat schmuck was anally battering women called "Capitalism" and whatnot.
mircea_popescu: usg.microsoft, usg.apple, usg.nsa, usg.sfpd along with usg.* are still our little bitch.
asciilifeform: that 'once usg requires that every...'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you imagine the same would stay true once every usg item had to use ipad 6 for lack of alternative, and in ALL applications ? phones, servers, metal detectors, everything, ipad 6 ?
asciilifeform: the usg 'mistresses' all have syphilis.
asciilifeform: nor can you insure against usg deciding that you owe $maxint in tax
asciilifeform: why hand out crosses to users for usg to nail them to.
asciilifeform: usg has a quite correct, from its pov, 'belt and suspenders' approach here.
a111: Logged on 2016-04-21 16:11 asciilifeform: where pgp seemed to 'threaten to go mainstream' and usg had not yet decided what to 'do about it'
asciilifeform: where pgp seemed to 'threaten to go mainstream' and usg had not yet decided what to 'do about it' ☟︎
mircea_popescu: the reason ponzi collapses is because ~it can not continue~. that's it. if he could have, maddof would have closed down his ponzi cleanly. he can not. if it could have, the usg would have closed down its social securities, or "us financial system" or "real estate values" ponzies cleanly
solrodar: only a USG agent would assume that was a bad thing :P
BingoBoingo: Really entire departments of USG would become unneessary.
asciilifeform: first commenter is also 'usg gold'
mircea_popescu: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RapePortrayedAsRedemption << lulziest thing in the usg-verse, that fantastic collection of mental representations.
mircea_popescu: somehow this "usg matters" is a difficult drop of molasses to escape
mircea_popescu: anyway, for the noobs : mpex 1st conference was principally this thing where voorhees and casares tried to convince me usg is the only game in town, with me laughing, and me stating mtgox isn't going to be around for long, with them laughing.
asciilifeform: and now 25m of these are to be, by royal decree, forfeited to the usg crown
mircea_popescu: usg aspiring to be as cool as http://deedbot.org/deed-350404-1.txt
shinohai: I suppose he would subpoena usg ?
shinohai: The usg gave phuctor an overdose of Ambien
asciilifeform: i suppose usg mitmatron is written in java or sumthing.
asciilifeform: while it remains true that this is not why mircea_popescu bought it, this is certainly far from 'usg capitalization' bottom of the ocean.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Far less USG tronic.
ben_vulpes: other than that, hilariously inept at anything other than procuring usg dole or scaring innocent civilians with 'sekyoority' analysis
mircea_popescu: hey, last time euro dropped 1% in a day, you couldn't get out of the fucking "o noes europe is teh end" usg agitprop
a111: Logged on 2016-04-13 05:37 mircea_popescu: trinque> and who, of course << there is no "when" outside of before/after other than yet another derpy attempt by usg to matter, which ~nobody gives a shit about. (see also http://btcbase.org/log/2015-07-08#1193955 re that if you care)

mircea_popescu: i do not think whoring is extempt from market mechanisms. i KNOW that what you misrepresent as "market mechanisms" is pure usg ideology and has not ever SEEN a market.
mircea_popescu: the last time a woman made 1k+ to fuck some guy, he was some engineer with a love/hate relationship with usg.
asciilifeform: phf: i beg to differ- i had not only x11 built under cygwin long ago (at usg gig!) but ratpoison, firefox, 1,001 unmodified linux proggies
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes kinda why the whole "usg takes as much from 'coffers' of usg corps as it needs" thing in macroeconomy discussion few days ago.
asciilifeform: against whom ? usg's own bank ?
asciilifeform: and 'desperate for funds' is not quite it - they have vastly more funds than staff (for n00bs to subj, usg spending is - in a perverse and difficult to understand formula - tied to organizational staffing..)
asciilifeform got YET ANOTHER 'we would l0000ve to have you!1111' from usg
mircea_popescu: no i meant from the alt-reality usg perspective
asciilifeform: (given as the marriages are not officiated by usg, the women all register as welfare mother cases)
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: i actually don't have much to choose from. 95+% of work in my field requires usg 'top secret'.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: american courts largely operate 'on technicalities' now, except when usg's verdict is assured by a tame freisler. it is how they avoid crafting inconvenient precedents.
mircea_popescu: or is that not how you say usg dun goofed in usg.agitprop
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-04-08#1448626 << afaik there is nothing to keep usg from zeroing out any usd account they feel like, whenever ☝︎
asciilifeform: 'who is selling 800k of coin? not usg!111 you hatefact-peddling nazi. it's this bloke in his attic'
asciilifeform: as surely as usg letting tinder dry spawns forest fires.
mircea_popescu: but when it came to individual versus group, he took the usg stand. also every time.
