ascii_field: PeterL: most of what's happening in chem is a) usg grantsmanship b) monkey tricks to extend pharma patents. and most of what remains is being done by folks who grew up with hobby chemistry.

mircea_popescu: ie, that same 1-2% of the coins that are in hands of self important usg ceo/vc types.

asciilifeform: jurov: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=05-11-2015#1317133 << out of curiosity, what are you using the usg client for ? ☝︎☟︎

assbot: Logged on 04-11-2015 18:50:13; *: asciilifeform would like input from his WoT re: what is the correct thing to do with obvious usg honeytrapping as described earlier.

asciilifeform: the whole thing smells as strongly as anyone might wish, of usg pushing the bounds of the possible.

asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: spiffy article. but fails to mention that the writings of s. have not (afaik - has anyone tried hard?) been seen by the public; nor is it publicly known how and where usg obtained them (it is known, iirc, that they were NOT public)

mircea_popescu: how many degrees of separation is this ? didja sign a promise to the usg to police the blockchain ?

assbot: Logged on 04-11-2015 18:54:25; asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: usg algo is, as i understand: 1) pick a fella who needs to have problems 2) steer known scum to his $thing 3) have it be established that he knows of (2) 4) pick him up as a thieves' fence

assbot: Logged on 04-11-2015 18:50:13; *: asciilifeform would like input from his WoT re: what is the correct thing to do with obvious usg honeytrapping as described earlier.

BingoBoingo: My take on shrem though was the magazine profile where the reporter mentioned his smoking lamp out in the open made him irredeemably a "drug criminal" in the eyes of USG

asciilifeform: jurov: this kind of thing is arranged every time usg needs to ban another type of gun.

asciilifeform: they bring usg with them wherever they go. the way rats bring plague.

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: usg algo is, as i understand: 1) pick a fella who needs to have problems 2) steer known scum to his $thing 3) have it be established that he knows of (2) 4) pick him up as a thieves' fence ☟︎

kakobrekla: asciilifeform but does usg really need to honeytrap ? as far as i get it, there is no need for such customs.

asciilifeform: they are the fodder on which usg lives.

thestringpuller: asciilifeform: you gonna let the USG force you to shut down your node?

asciilifeform: i don't like manually kicking folks off my node, but this screams of usg entrapment

assbot: Logged on 13-11-2014 19:04:36; *: asciilifeform admits that he suspects bip64 of being a plot to create usg-like bonds in btc. folks will be asked to trace X proper btc for X+epsilon 'locked' ones that are to land back in their pocket 'in the future', should they live long enough, but are actually recovable 'because this is how the world works'

pete_dushenski: i've even seen this at usg 'green building' trade shows.

asciilifeform: kakobrekla: aha, why do you suppose they bothered to smash serbia and roll up all of old yugo into usg reich ?

pete_dushenski: one wonders why usg/uk bother with such surveillance legislation at all if they actually have de facto doing-whatever-the-fuck-it-wants-to-whoever-it-wants powerz

kakobrekla: actually iirc there is a huge underground usg army base in mk

asciilifeform: arguably a snore, because in practice usg already had doing-whatever-the-fuck-it-wants-to-whoever-it-wants powerz

asciilifeform: '“What we have to question ourselves is, as a society, do we really want to criminalise 13, 14 and 15 year-olds? Or do we want to understand their behaviour, engage with their incredible skillsets, mentor them and try to point them in the right direction?” she said.' << aha, a course of neuroleptics followed by lifetime indenture at junior www dev work in usg sharashka, is the implication.

asciilifeform: (this is a not altogether bad heuristic for what is a usg colony - can you bribe a traffic cop ?)

asciilifeform: eu is a usg colony

mircea_popescu: like hell. this is your "usg matters" delusion speaking.

asciilifeform: as i understand, cn is only involved in the sense that it is impervious to the usg orc-pushing current

mircea_popescu: end of fucking story, no usg enters into any of it. binary choice, pick one : ( ) man ; ( ) boy.

assbot: Logged on 03-11-2015 20:19:08; ascii_field: the orcs are welcome because they spread chaos and destroy the competition of usg

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-11-2015#1314735 << usg wants a convenient three-byte marker for intel's hw rootkit to grep your ram for. any questions? ☝︎

BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> and wtf, the usg Official Truth is that MOST small arms homicides in usa have .22 hole. << Pehaps he had the fancy copper plate stuff.

asciilifeform: and wtf, the usg Official Truth is that MOST small arms homicides in usa have .22 hole.

ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: "repatriation schemes" would be "kiss the ring and the usg will pressure holders of your holy artifacts to return them"

mircea_popescu: whole thing is a trivial example of WHY usg doth not want a sane bitcoind, ie, a 700kb one./

ascii_field would like to try to avoid straight usg gigs, however, from past experience

asciilifeform: they sell 'verified' crypto to usg

v_diddy: asciilifeform: doesn't this thread devolve into "there's precious little market for anything not supported by usg"?

mircea_popescu: vulpes_a_hopital do what the usg does : differential leverage.

asciilifeform: (if anyone notices you have them, and they aren't taking the usg exams, you will have problems)

ascii_field: this re: the ancient and ongoing thread about whether usg is somehow limited by laws.

ascii_field: ^ usg brags of its murders

assbot: Logged on 28-10-2015 00:14:05; mats: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-10-2015#1309017 << disingenuous, because all agents of usg are entrusted with masterpwn key? mitigations do not raise the cost of exploitation, even for usg? because, last i checked, they use kits like everybody else in the game.

mats: this is patent nonsense. do you run your boxes with aslr on? then some classes of exploits usg may use against you could certainly involve rop gadgets. then, 'RAP' may prevent code execution.

assbot: Logged on 27-10-2015 18:13:33; asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-10-2015#1308948 << disingenuous to bring it back to 'but we gotta raise the cost for attackerz' while carefully omitting to mention that in ALL OF THESE 'mitigation' derpitudes 'attacker' invariably, INESCAPABLY really means 'attackers other than usg'

asciilifeform: not like there ever were REAL damaging-to-usg leaks on the net.

asciilifeform: 'secure'-only-against-sp4mz0rz is just another way to say 'anal rape by usg but with anaesthesia so you aren't acutely writhing in pain from it'

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-10-2015#1308948 << disingenuous to bring it back to 'but we gotta raise the cost for attackerz' while carefully omitting to mention that in ALL OF THESE 'mitigation' derpitudes 'attacker' invariably, INESCAPABLY really means 'attackers other than usg' ☝︎☟︎

mircea_popescu: it's enough to drive one stack. im surprise not more usg-kgb folks go on murder rampages. i know i would.

asciilifeform: incidentally, the 'crypto chip as unprincipled exception' is long-standing policy in usg internally

asciilifeform: they approached the problem, in classic usg style, from a dozen angles at once

asciilifeform: and usg is happy to oblige, 'here have a clipperchip'

asciilifeform l0lz at the fact that one can get a usg mil-std portable for < 300 usd new

asciilifeform: also - as mats knows - or ought to know - 'trusted' is a usg shibboleth for 'resists attempts at understanding or modification by putative owner'

mircea_popescu: well... looking for where i said teh poor usg is between rock and hard place, if it misses but once it's fucked, i instead found http://trilema.com/2012/why-smpoe-is-worth-more-than-mtgox/

asciilifeform: (followed by a few kb of mostly generic usg claptrap)

asciilifeform: 'The Department of Defense shall work with other U.S. Government (USG) departments and agencies and with partner nations to deny, disrupt, or defeat and degrade adversaries’ ability to use global licit and illicit financial networks to negatively affect U.S. interests.'

asciilifeform: even bums will often 'drive' a motorized wheelchair thing (provided by usg, through some byzantine and ancient pension thing)

ascii_field: afaik usg does not even think in these terms

mircea_popescu: usg can not afford a hundred btc loss

ascii_field: https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/3pofdv/consensys_absorbing_whats_left_of_ethereum (from qntra commentz) << lulzy. yet again a new usg shill corp. to handle shitcoinatronics

mircea_popescu: take your obamas, bhararas and whatever other oratanii and go the fuck back to kenya, dear usg.

mircea_popescu: here's what : the greatest growth potential for usg & associated retardation is ... subsaharan africa.

mircea_popescu: "Bitcoin price volatility in 2015 is roughly half what it was in 2014." << oh we so desperately need the usg tards.

ascii_field: ;;later tell ben_vulpes re: article: usg won't 'hand out cash' for the same reason that comcast et al doesn't actually promise 1Gb/s at 100% dutycycle. (the rest of it, i have failed to make sense of)

asciilifeform: interesting moar for the fact of malaysia enabling arbitrary kidnapping by usg of whoever

ascii_field: mircea_popescu: rumour has it there are still usg facilities that have problems with the newfangled electric things. fbi headquarters (the brutalist monster death start in washington) has, i'm told, ethernet snakes on the floor

ascii_field: and at any rate this is a beautiful election. teaches the childrenz how ~actual~ usg works

ascii_field: 'we will save you from usg unless ordered not to by usg so don't be surprised if never. but you can feel great!'

mircea_popescu: NOTHING exists at usg's pleasure. not one thing.

ascii_field: foia is a palliative circus which exists at usg's pleasure.

mircea_popescu: and it would seem the usg is going towards withdrawing support.

mircea_popescu: ansd you know, the universal supreme goat council (USG) had a secret conspiracy to import wolves into the forest, to keep the baby goat herding behaviour going\

assbot: Logged on 11-10-2015 20:06:41; asciilifeform: folks familiar with usg 'scientocracy' will laugh, but the fact is, the mind-reading box does not necessarily have to... work. to be put in use.

ascii_field: the way i see it, usg continues in the effort to force folks off classical clients

mircea_popescu: da fuck does that even mean, "usg does not support"

ascii_field: support, oppose, usg's golems work either way.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not even usg related. it is CHEAPER.

asciilifeform: usg would rather have a herd of depressives than manics, yes
