mircea_popescu: it is NOT a
usg crown hedgefund anymore than romania was a soviet property.

BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> (for n00bz who think 'it is impossible to be sacked from
usg' - it is actually very easy. one merely has to be employed as a contractor, of whom there is a dozen or two for every actual 'civil servant', and then you can be fired any hour.) << Or appointee (i.e. patronage position)
mircea_popescu: nah,
usg doesn't figure into this as much as a prince albert.
mircea_popescu: well, basically the story of eth is, "what if we made a b-a, except not on irc but in a spare closet at a
usg-sponsored university, and we tried to get idiot kids on reddit excited and inept javascript developers contributing code and MAKE A BETTER BITCOIN in the sense that it'll suck where bitcoin hurts us."
mircea_popescu: there is really little cause to discuss
usg behaviours in any other terms, and there's very good cause to NOT discuss it in the terms
usg itself comes up with.
mircea_popescu: anyway. to continue the thought - the
usg and its ephemera are deeply and fundamentally antifeminist. they hate women as individuals and aim to exploit them as a mass. this is EXACTLY the situation of black people in the antebellum south : hated as individuals, exploited as a group.
ben_vulpes: tis a healthy wot of "fuck you
usg" around here
phf:
usg claims word ownership
mircea_popescu: meanwhile a gobag would be, i presume, on the basis of coverage of this shaun bridges proud representative of the
usg in all its glory, the thing he was going to run off with
mircea_popescu: anyway, lulzy at the too-smart-by-half
usg. OH WE CAPTURED GOBAG!!!11
trinque: thus the fact that
usg can compel any company to do anything for any reason loses the pretense of secrecy.
jurov: ok, ftfy: but not while the chief engineer thinks himself
usg subject, i guess
jurov: but not while the chief engineer is

BingoBoingo: DVD/bluDVD copy thing drew a bunch of
USG aggro. Derpy thorn in copyrasta's sides but still a thorn. One of the longest running "legit" ones.

assbot: Logged on 24-02-2016 22:03:01; asciilifeform: well all i have is the fact (rumour?) that there is this kid who organized a mega-scam for
usg phf: only quality asian ones use glass vacuum chambers, also on account of those people being careful with their stuff. can't even buy those in
usg unless in specialty asian stores
mircea_popescu: i am not prepared to admit
usg ownership over as much as the fucking bathroom of the oval office.
mircea_popescu: and this is not merely a discussion of nodes in terms of internet ips. this is a discussion of everything.
usg can not currently know which of its agents is closer to me than to washington. closer to their wife than to washington. closer to their purse, a la force, than to washington.
mircea_popescu: this cloud will never be clarified, or separated. the space where
usg can reliably live (or, for that matter, chinag, russiag, dpkg, anyone-g) is, more or less, zero.
mircea_popescu: phf the separation between "trb nodes" and "the rest of the network" comes of the same sort of
usg-enabling fiction where somehow obama owns the land and i live on it by his permision.

usg 'expellas furca, tamen usque recurret' (tm)
mircea_popescu: Malini Mithal << at first sight one thinks what the indian supreme court thinks about patents is irrelevant to the us. at second sight one tries to recall a
usg lawyer that's not indian and chuckles to himself.

☝︎☟︎☟︎ mats: whaddya mean
usg funded AQI affiliates to fight bashar, etc
pete_dushenski: how many lazy retards to you have to employ with 'fairness policies' to capture a couple strong retards capable of torturing
usg enemies
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo do you happen to know offhand where on qntra is the affidavit of random
usg derp that claims ross ulbricht was found through whatever experts sex change website ? << not offhand, can dig prolly december 2014
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo do you happen to know offhand where on qntra is the affidavit of random
usg derp that claims ross ulbricht was found through whatever experts sex change website ?
mircea_popescu: you choose to view this as a sign of the omnipotence of
usg.
mircea_popescu: it's just a convenience. it's not a fucking
usg tendril.
mircea_popescu: good people in specific circumstances produce
usg no matter what they individually may choose.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo note how they STILL WON'T FIX THE MOTHERFUCKING HOLE. instead, how about to destroy more of the interconnected nature of the web ? "automattic got
usg's back - turn off other people and only talk to disqus!!1"
mircea_popescu: ie, it's easy to pick on alf about his enamourement with the mental-
usg, mostly because he's so "naively" open and upfront about it.
mircea_popescu: how does this relate to the legal impotence of the
usg henceforth is unclear, but w/e.
mircea_popescu: in this case, the
usg took it in the ass. and the problem with whoredom is that oyu NEVER get to charge more than the least you ever charged.
phf: i agree though, i like that philly is a no mans land, since there's no developers or Control or particularly strong presence of
usg.
mircea_popescu: encapsulation is a dream. you know that. what exactly activates your memory hole to think that apple "done it" ?
usg perfume ? what is it ?
mircea_popescu: " is that
usg has the politburo in both cases by the balls, they all have swiss accounts 'which could have problems' if they don't play ball." << if we were discussing a tissue sample, this would directly map to "god's life force prevails"
mircea_popescu: (and no, the notion that the
usg has any say in this is preposterous - if the mexican narcos decided to take over, they would take over, and no us president would even deign to EVEN NOTICE that "hey, at some point in the recent past the border was on the river".)
mircea_popescu: so by this logic they don't believe in "bringing democracy" to various countries, because the people arguing for it are obvious
usg shills ?
mircea_popescu: it's so bizarre that the
usg doesn't embrace herbalife. yes all the arguments against it are solid, but they cut just as much against say, apple. google.
mircea_popescu: i am, and for years have been, destroying the
usg through everett's device.
mircea_popescu: it's deeper than that, imo. the point here is that bitcoin is not making any attempt to limit ownership of its tokens by say,
usg agents.
mircea_popescu: NOT having many users is as valuable as NOT having a fucktarded US-like VC on your board, or NOT having a fatass woman with a history of
USG employment in "human services" roles in your staff.
mircea_popescu: #b-a so schneier and the rest of the
usg-powered nobodies get the swanson treatment ; #b-a so there's deedbot ; #b-a so everything in there comes back to it.
