to obtain one's 'certified ethical hacker' license ? a hand-written note
to hitler ?

their money in finance, banking and investments."
pete_dushenski: " Overall,
these people were highly educated and cognitively able, and smarter"
pete_dushenski: "The extent
to which people in
the right
tail of wealth are highly educated and cognitively able was examined in a sample of 18,245 ultra high net worth (UHNW) individuals with net worth's of USD $30 million plus."
assbot: Yeah. No damn
tobacco,
that's for sure.
pete_dushenski: "Coley is quoted in police documents as saying “You bumbaclot Muslim,” a phrase containing a Jamaican expletive. “I’m going
to burn your Muslim
temple down,” he added, before spitting on
the woman several
times."
pete_dushenski: " A postal worker in New York City has been accused of a hate crime after harassing a Muslim woman with an infant in a stroller. He was arrested by Brooklyn police after launching an anti-Muslim

pete_dushenski: "If you're blown away by
the idea
that fewer
than 100 people control as much wealth as half
the world
today, imagine how concentrated money used
to be." << lol and will be.
pete_dushenski: turns out
the 'apple support communities' aren't complete refuse.
pete_dushenski: haha! solvèd! just had
to delete com.apple.Dictionary.plist. magique, ca.
pete_dushenski: "Application Specific Information: *** error for object 0x11d00cc08: incorrect checksum for freed object - object was probably modified after being freed." << my motherfucking ~dictionary~ keeps crashing and sending
this error message.
mircea_popescu: i only ever liked romania, or any other place come
to
think of it, for
that kind of reason.
mircea_popescu: you know, i suppose i'd like
the us a lot more if
the people running
the private "scam
the suckers" entreprises
there were literate and spoke enlish
ben_vulpes: mostly already is, in
the sense
that
the "police" forces are only nominally public entities in
that part of
the country.
mircea_popescu: what are
they gonna do, steal his cash and car if he drives
through washington dc ?
mircea_popescu: more like, drivers leaving
trucks did more damage
than
the enitre rest of
the ops.
ascii_field: 'Before hitting
the
trucks,
the American forces dropped leaflets warning
that an attack was coming, and as
truck drivers are deemed
to be non-combatants,
they were
told
to "get out of your
trucks now and run away from
them" before
the airstrikes hit.'
jurov: "immanent
threats" caused me
to remember G.W.Bush, with weird
twinge at heart
mircea_popescu: immanence is a kantian concept ; imminence is
the state of proximity in
time of a future item
to
the present.
trinque: immanent would be in
the ballpark of "inherent"
trinque: though I could see an angle for either word
there.
punkman: assbot: EEVblog #822 - World's Worst
Tablet Computer
Teardown <<
that battery pack, ermahgerd
mircea_popescu: In 2014 alone, US Attorneys "forfeited" $4.5 billion.
This dollar amount now places federal law enforcement at
the

Take Stuff
That Belongs
To Others."
BingoBoingo: Don't really need much other joke when
the existence of Hussein Bahamas is
the joke.
BingoBoingo: Nah, just Bahamas giving
thanks over ISIS and another chance
to use
the picture
ascii_field: 'Some choice
titles : Operiatiunea dulapul' << l0l
mircea_popescu: now i'm gonna have
to go in and
take dialogue down by hand ? WHAT GOOD ARE YOU INTERNETS
jurov: so? people would have used mtgox if it still existed,
too, despite it would have not paid anything for 2 years :)
mircea_popescu: business will have
to learn
that it has
to do a lot of cocksucking of btc folks.
assbot: Logged on 25-11-2015 13:25:38; davout:
the financial partner is pretty anal about letting people inside in
the first place (which mostly explains why our volume is weak)
mircea_popescu: people will sit around in
the dark waiting for
the cloujds
to clear so
they can water
their farmville crops, while oil wells will sit capped and waiting for
them
to die out because "oil is not fashionable".
this is
totally happening. and it'll matter.
mircea_popescu: that's what i'm worried about, coal mines and oil wells. not
the amazon/google/facebook/apple babyblue-chip bs.
mircea_popescu: "Fossil fuel companies risk wasting up
to $2tn (£1.3tn) of investors money in
the next decade on projects left worthless by global action on climate change and
the surge in clean energy, according
to a new report."
mircea_popescu: this guy should stick
to cleaning floors or w/e he does for a living, exterminate rodents.
mircea_popescu: also "progressive" and "advanced" do not mean
the same
thing,
they mean
the opposite
thing. so
they're not interchangeable.
mircea_popescu: by definition of pep
talk and archeology,
there can not be an archeology pep
talk.
mircea_popescu: leaving aside how
they're not even wrong,
too far gone off
the map
to even be wrong : what
the fuck is with
this mentally slow 12yo style of communication!
mircea_popescu: can't write on any
topic without channeling one's 7th grade football coach doing a pep
talk ?
mircea_popescu: "But if youre in Walnut Canyon in 1150 A.D.,
these guys are
totally amazing!
Theyve got canals, stone buildings, and advanced ceramics.
They were so far ahead of everybody
they knew,
that
they are absolutely
the smartest guys anybody has ever heard of.
Theyre
the pinnacle of human achievement.
Theyre
the Stone-Age Stanford.
Theyre
the MIT of black and white pottery."

davout: pretty unsurprisingly bitcoin is sold
there at a 5
to 10% premium (in my experience)
thestringpuller: I've always wondered when
the first cash only exchange will pop on
Tor.
davout: (which is why we'll very probably change partners in
the very near future)
davout: the problem being
the bitcoin is scary, and
that
they're in
the business of covering
their sorry ass, while we're in
the business of doing business
davout: the financial partner is pretty anal about letting people inside in
the first place (which mostly explains why our volume is weak)
☟︎ punkman: davout: so does
this happen often?
thestringpuller: Paymium in
this stance is neutral. Which is how it should be
thestringpuller: davout: but in your case you can at least give your customers a chance
to clean
the stench off of
them.
jurov: i'd very much prefer not
to
jurov: punkman if you were in davout's place would you wish
to know
the gory details anyway?
davout: jurov: i
think by definition you'll never be able
to get rid of
the fiat stench if your job is handling it
punkman: davout, so you just get API ERROR: FROZEN or something when you
try
to move money?
davout: we simply
tell
them: "move 10€ from peter
to john's" account
jurov: the question is, can sane btcusd exchange exist in
the US jurisdiction at all?
davout: punkman: no,
they don't. what you have
to understand, is
that from
their point of view, we're simply shuffling euros around in
their books
thestringpuller: Coinbase is clearly ill conceived
then, if
the end user has
to obey banking regulations but cannot
talk
to
the financial institution. And of course CBSE being a middleman plays dumb "We're just following orders."
jurov: lol why would
they
punkman: davout, do
they
tell you why
the freeze any particular account?
davout: thestringpuller: yes,
that's correct,
they actually have someone
to
talk
to at an institution
that's regulated,
they are legally a direct customer of
the financial institution
jurov: yes i can hire french lawyer and start
talking with
the bank (or court)
thestringpuller: with CBSE it's "Get
the fuck out of here. Sorry we fucked up your shit."
thestringpuller: davout: but even in
that instance end user can
talk
to bank and be like "Yo why you freezing my shit nigga?"
davout: eur accounts got frozen, but
that's pretty much about it
davout: i don't
think we were ever requested
to freeze a bitcoin balance
jurov: like,
they closed
the acct due
to,say, money laundering but no one was interested in btc side of it?
davout: honestly, i
think it's pretty much
the same shit everywhere with slightly different coatings
thestringpuller: Coinbase is gagged by
the banks. "Bank Secrecy Act", so no one will ever know why
their account was closed over here.
