mircea_popescu: kinda the strategy of that mini
usg, "find pliable idiots in all fields, promote them, get payola when/if nsa needs some planting done"
a111: Logged on 2016-06-17 14:08 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform next, watch the
usg agents derping about how "cryptocurrency is dead because our shitscheme imploded" ; and once that goes nowhere, watch them come back to bitcoin to "fix" the "consensus problems" it "has".
mircea_popescu: you telling me the whole entire field of
usgtronic plans collapsed suddenly and irretrievably one fine morning ?
mircea_popescu: there's no good way to distinguish sheer stupidity from randomness. the
usg is ~about this dumb irl.
mircea_popescu: the ~only solution is, obviously, a withdrawal of the
usg inside its borders. which has been happening and is accelerating.
mircea_popescu: this allows mp to turkey-ize the fake dollars, by denying a market to the
usg agentura.
mircea_popescu: this is currently, and for as long as it'll last, a black hole in the
usg budget to parallel the f-35 airplane-coffeemaker-submarine combo.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
usg.mit a further 20mn in the hole. an' the volume keeps on growing lolz.
mircea_popescu: awww! but ethereum continues to drop ? i thought the
usg.mit.mongoloid party had "infinite funds"! !!!
mircea_popescu: mno, it was ripple v2.0, "
usg must have a horse in the race".
mircea_popescu: the point is EXACTLY the same ineptitude of
usgism that created the taliban, "russians must have competitor", and then the isis "taliban must have competitor" and so on.
mircea_popescu: anyway. so they're in well over 100 fake mn by now. what's the
usg.mit budget for propping up the scamcoin ? any guesses ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, /me loves how teh
usg is spending its crap fiat to try and prop up a crap altcoin.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform next, watch the
usg agents derping about how "cryptocurrency is dead because our shitscheme imploded" ; and once that goes nowhere, watch them come back to bitcoin to "fix" the "consensus problems" it "has".
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i do not have use for as much as a rotten end of a thread from
usg. you follow this concept ?
mircea_popescu: not so. so far they're paying through the nose, a good two thirds of anything their subjects consume being the
usg's own contribution.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, this may be the most idiotic cockroach implanted by
usg in programmer heads, "save time by not reading"
mircea_popescu: and how ? for one thing, "
usg" scarcely mattered at the time. for the other, thebrits denied the russians their ports.
mircea_popescu: but if you want to know how the
usg corrupt class siphons the public hreasury - look no further. that's the system, "acquisitions", government-mandated, like facebook buying some derpy app for $random_sum, and so on. "we gave you free money, now you give it back" goes the story.
mircea_popescu: also of some (psychiatric) interest, the nonsensical attempt to equate "meaning" altogether, as the concept, with the shoddy, untenable implementation by
usg & friends. "ip" is not the superset of noesis ffs.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform zee germanz had a small unit built at some point. then they tore it down because
usg lobby for fucking them over ; ended up paying ~half a dollar per kW produced in "dismantling" costs.
mircea_popescu: it's plenty sexy. it resolves a number of notable problems, correctly - which is to say without support for
usg.
mircea_popescu: being part of a
usg "protected class" is insta-outlawry. everyone may take your shit, rape you and kill you, and nobody cares. serves you fucking right, shithead.
mircea_popescu: myeah i was looking more for a single line from credible souce. "pdf" from
usg exact opposite on all scores.
a111: Logged on 2016-06-08 02:36 mircea_popescu: ie, more "visits" than average
usg fishwrap gets in a week. none of them yielded anything ~whatsoever~, which discorages exactly no one.
trinque: they blackmailed
usg into giving them tax exempt status
mircea_popescu: actually, maybe you explain this to me, since we're on it. what exactly can possibily fucking possess you to put your stuff on
usg.imgur instead of building yout own platform ?
mircea_popescu: a) participated in
usg scheme ; b) did not amass sufficient secret files to REALLY hurt the other participants.
mircea_popescu: ie, more "visits" than average
usg fishwrap gets in a week. none of them yielded anything ~whatsoever~, which discorages exactly no one.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: anyway, it's a major factor in the "i can't explain why the fuck this guy went all
usgtronic".
a111: Logged on 2016-06-07 17:50 asciilifeform: specifically to 'we do not want to be bitcoin, bitcoin users will be crushed by
usg'
ben_vulpes: meanwhile france is
usg because if yer not with us yer against us (tm) (r) ?
a111: Logged on 2015-09-12 17:11 asciilifeform: in other news,
http://taler.net << the
usg-approved, built-in-tax-collector-and-stoolie altcoin is finally rolled out.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-23 15:08 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not even a matter of sons ; the
usg has no sons, nor any vigor in the seed. it's a matter of desperation - everything americans don't buy, the chinese buy, take apart and move to china.
mircea_popescu: check it out,
usg so desperate is even trying to co-opt shambling forum scams now.
mircea_popescu: and so the matter settled : what started on may 25th as a slight disparity between the
usg faux bitcoin exchanges trading at 448 (bitfinex isn't inclued here, having nothing to do with bitcoin altogether) while btcchina was reporting 455 (and 2/3 of the total volume), eventually peaked out at 510/580 (with btcchina still doing 2/3 of the volume) and eventually settled at 530/540. the moral that "you should have yielded rather
mircea_popescu: if tomorrow muhammad offers a gram more petrocheese / unit time than
usg.yelp.ceo.my, she's gone.
mircea_popescu: so the various
usg exchanges doing fuckall volume are STILL clinging on to their delusional notions of what the price is, days later.
mircea_popescu: you totally need to start running a blog and stop ugc-ing your productions away to the
usg.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: literally that is the url. May or may not have, but gets interesting
USG surplus from time to time. Gott get it when they have it before it sells out.
mircea_popescu: imagine,
usg.mit actually has derpy 20something chicks so fucking insane, they run out to whore for it. FOR IT!
BingoBoingo: AHA, but in Stl you are a short drive from places Legit
USG battle flag flies in the Ozarks. Where War of Northern Aggression is still active.
mircea_popescu: the derpy "watch a video for bitcoin" thing is just what you'd expect out of
usgistan. meanwhile, a irc-bot driven client that does ethernet and computation, and charges for these would be pretty sweet.
mircea_popescu: Framedragger i honestly don't give a shit what small national governments think they're doing or not doing or whatever. "lithuania" the subject of law is as unrecognized as
usg is. no relation to anything, no power to anything, they can write bluntman and chronic comics about how "it is" an' "keep it real" if they so wish.
mircea_popescu: awww look at that, goonswarm (game group of SA [sort-of the center of the ~male libtard internet, like the action movies to go with gawker&whatever, mostly famous for providing
usg agent biomaterial for middle east bodybags]) has been getting raped in eve (a derpy game about "space" that mostly consists of spreadsheets. we used to have a guild there too) got raped. they lost about as much territory since 2010ish as the us los
mircea_popescu: we totally have to introduce a secrecy system because look how well it worked for the
usgistans.
mircea_popescu: but at any rate this conversation definitely lays bare just how badly we've missed the boat by not increasing blocksize when
usgavin wanted to.
mircea_popescu: basically some
usg assholes tried to hijack the bitcoin. trb aka the real bitcoin is the... well, the real bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: shinohai well, the
usg party is ever less confident they'll get much over a summer of forks ; "ethereum is good" was the backup.
mircea_popescu: ie, an individual
usg black dude sided with the
usg side.
