asciilifeform: are announcing to criminals, 'use this device.''
asciilifeform: of encryption and anonymizing technology to conceal contraband materials and disguise their locations. Andrew Weissmann, a former FBI general counsel, has publically called the use of such encryption technology outrageous.

In essence these companies
asciilifeform: 'Recent technological advances have the potential to greatly embolden online criminals, providing new methods for abusers to avoid detection.

mircea_popescu: heck, modern spain was built on the rape-and-pillage of more civilised, peace loving, law abiding muslims by religious zealots.
mircea_popescu: "things better left unsaid", stuff like La France being a lot more a creation of militant, government-bombing activism than christianity. and so on.
mircea_popescu: d us" chiefly because it served the anglo puppet masters.
mircea_popescu: funny how nobody in france and generally in the "nordic model" train of euro-socialistoid train wants to remember how, by and large, french society was either supportive or indifferent of the nazis, and how "la resistance" maps almost exactly on what today would be "extreme righyt wing extremism", and how de gaulle, the exact equivalent of say arafat, got to re-write history into some delusional "all france stood behin ☟︎

ascii_butugychag: brb train
mircea_popescu: it is easy for the young to ignore the outright heroic accomplishment that it is for say 60yos to just keep track of this mess.

mod6: im about to do this, just a sec.
BingoBoingo: There is no single last one. There's 3 last ones. ☟︎☟︎
mod6: then it should press all that come before it.
mod6: <+BingoBoingo> So if there are three heads I want I'd press 3 times << no should just be able to choose the last one in the flow output
mod6: just one press at a time. choose a new output dir to ensure clean press.
BingoBoingo: So if there are three heads I want I'd press 3 times
BingoBoingo: But I mean to get the next head do you just repeat pressing with a different head or???
mod6: <+BingoBoingo> So do you press head, press other head, etc or something else << no, you can just up through a given vpatch in the flow.
mod6: you should be able to sync the whole thing now and get those ones as well.
mod6: ok those two latest patches and their corresponding seals from asciilifeform are in the mirror.
BingoBoingo: Also what if you want to press 3 heads at same time?
mod6: were the new patches included in your 'flow' output?

BingoBoingo: So do I need to unpack a source Bitcoin tarball anywhere special?
mod6: after this, you should be able to press out a new trb that includes the latest patches, then build from there.
mod6: you should be able to drop those patches into your patches directory for V, and then also put the seals in your seals dir -- once that's complete doing `./v.pl f` should show you a flow with those patches in there with 'asciilifeform' as the signatory.
mircea_popescu: in general people should be able to make their own decision based on keys, rather than pile up on you to review neh ?
mod6: <+BingoBoingo> The coolest latest stuff seems to have not sync'd << because the two latest ones haven't been read or tested by me yet.
BingoBoingo: I'm closer to getting it to work
BingoBoingo: The coolest latest stuff seems to have not sync'd

mircea_popescu: gains from focused efforts must be confiscated by higher authority and distributed to the deserving, less user fees.
mircea_popescu: Classical physics demands certainty. Quantum mechanics demands probability. Diversity demands one more turn of the screw - nullity. We cannot allow the impositions of society to crush the aspirations of culture. Those who are empirically materially productive steal wealth from those who pursue transient hedonistic objectively valueless personal agendas. Diversity is admission for reason of disqualification.
