mircea_popescu: has 0 to do with pharma. where
usg goes, the
usg.problems go.
mircea_popescu: this one will kill it, of course, but even if it didn't, even without it :
usg had been tricked by
usg.vc into missing out on pretty much everything. even fucking obvious things like small biz.
mircea_popescu: A hilariously low percentage of tech investment targets the SMB market (aiming instead at huge business, the web, and the consumer electronics tie-in (the only interesting part of the list)) <<< yeah, it's not JUST bitcoin that the VC circus misdirected the
usg into losing out of.
mircea_popescu: let me guess, if tomorrow the
USG Comissar uh i mean Czar In Charge Of What This Particular Set Of Idle Fucktards Thinks says that the blockchain impedes great justice and should be edited so and so to promote "fairness" they'll... oppose ? resist ?
mircea_popescu: who told random
usg tard that he is qualified to "cure cancer" or even get out of bed at all when he can't even run a clean system ?
mircea_popescu: and then in the same day ima have to explain to well intentioned fellows what is evil about
usg-tronics.
assbot: Logged on 11-10-2015 21:21:42; mircea_popescu: <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. << right right. cholesterol is bad for you except its good for you and salt is bad except its good and hey, as long as they got "science" what difference does it make that they're 100% consensused on opposite things every 30 years.

☟︎ ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: see famous case with portland lawyer that the incompetents in the
usg wanted to frame for the madrid bombings.
assbot: Logged on 11-10-2015 18:04:22; mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i dunno that nonsense is of any interest rly. ever since ashcroft
usg has been putting forth all sorts of spurious claims.

usg has been putting forth all sorts of spurious claims.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: looky, it's functional - at least more so than the
usg - and it's anti-west alright.
mircea_popescu: that was then covered by endless layers of
usg-esque "improvements" mostly intended to cement the gunk in place.
mircea_popescu: the deep fundamental reason
usg exists needs to go away. not merely the
usg, or preet bharara's head.
mircea_popescu: "
usg fails to push its out shit out of its own rectum, send halp!"
mircea_popescu: i mean i get it,
usg interest can't push asad out, etc.
ascii_field: at this time, every single copy of every variant of bitcoin in the world runs on a cpu designed - and, in almost all cases, made - by the
usg ministry of crudputing !!
pete_dushenski: what's different about
usg/su centralisation ? scale of overall economy from which to draw ?
pete_dushenski: well, i won't speak for intel, but toyota can flatly tell
usg where to go.
ascii_field: and
usg conscripted tech suppliers, not only banks, to serve as de-facto polizei
pete_dushenski: what are the chances that democracy doesn't produce the best results ? but rather the results that favour
usg interests ? hm. i wonder.
pete_dushenski: because what's to negotiate with ?
usg is a nebulous metastatic blob with no end and no beginning. trying to have a conversation with it is like talking to a tree and expecting the forest to play along.
BingoBoingo: phf: A man does agress with other people's words.
USG does that. Ethics demands you only defend with that.
BingoBoingo: <gabriel_laddel> BingoBoingo: The pics would be for our intel systems dude << You don't need an image to recognize broke ass
USG Denzel Washington wannabe
gabriel_laddel: I love how *everyone* either missed or ignored where ascii was taking the "cocaine sales practice as a measure of
USG power, whatever its form" thread.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform srsly, dope conventionslong predate
usg.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i wouldn't sell cocaine either, at any rate not differently freom how it's done now, at which point you'd saysomething liek "mp is nao
usg" and i'd hit you in the head with a six kg single crystal metaphetamine hammer.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> it's just this device that tells me that
usg is still alive and strong. << USSRia hates Drugs too
mircea_popescu: not that it's not readily believable, not that there aren't excellent reasons why it's not in the
usg agitprop.
ascii_field:
usg takes less? then moar for the landlord to harvest
mircea_popescu: and i thought all modern gurlz live in
usg quarters with low pressure showers.
ascii_field: my current understanding is that
usg has been specifically squeezing diesel heat users - they get untaxed fuel that is theoretically usable in trucks, and folks often 'cheat'. it has a colouring agent, and in parts of usa where this type of heater is common, policemen will often dip a wooden stick into a truck's tank to test for cheat
mircea_popescu: random but rather fine balancing example for all teh
usg agency lulz in here.
BingoBoingo: Better to start him with Rambo's First Blood Part one, so he knows the consquences of being violent for the
USG first
assbot: Logged on 31-01-2015 02:02:19; midnightmagic: dude. seriously plotting or fomenting the physical murder of the
USG is sedition, insurrection, and various related crimes and there's no fucking way I'm interested in being associated with it just because I'm lurking in here.
ascii_field: it is same
usg, but a special holding pen therein.
mircea_popescu: in general any company is better than
usg company by now, and consequently this approach, if it ever was seriously entertained, fails.
ascii_field: which is why
usg is not considering what part of texas to bomb today.
mircea_popescu: the funny thing is, that the "marginally retarded" (which they were) had the
usg agents so badly beaten it was fucking ridiculous.
ascii_field: these were nucleation points for 'militia movement' in the '90s, which was, afaik, five parts
usg provocateurship to one part genuine, if imbecilic, organized rebellion - which had to be nuked
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: it was the very textbook example of
usg powershow modus operandi - pick on the borderline retarded, preferably ones who practice voodoo to a degree repugnant to the tvtronic public
mircea_popescu: and b) that there's scant relation between the raping of the
usg in the states as per the marijuana thing ands the raping of the
usg in other states as per the blacks thing
mircea_popescu: what remains here is : a) that the
usg is very vulnerable, has always been, and far from a "you can do nothing to us" a top guy is killed every few decades, and the lower agents get popped daily.
ascii_field: short version, proto-
usg squeezed out poor white catholics, who were slow to 'get with the program', from urban centers, with 'population replacement' gambit where 'housing projects' were built and filled with lumpens
mircea_popescu: but blacklivesmatter is a maryland thing, and the "arrest
usg twerps" is a "other states than maryland" thing.
mircea_popescu: this, incidentally, is the one thing the
usg does right.
BingoBoingo: ascii_field:
USG was prolly worried about all those sedevacantist extremists
ascii_field: for some reason, knockout drug + rope appears to be the favourite
usg method for dispatching troublesome folks
mircea_popescu: i would suspect there's more random common law criminals being shielded by the
usg from various jurisdictions than there are successful prosecutions in any given year.
mircea_popescu: hey, if the
usg "law enforcement" hires some kickass pr it might even catch up to the sinaloa cartel by 2016.
mircea_popescu: so basically lebanon is the new hope in the
usg middle east desperation ?
mircea_popescu: well sure, for as long as a
usg-pretense exists to keep bankrolling everyone's pretense, everyone's gonna keep on pretending.
ascii_field:
usg knows that f(x) == y, you get locked into an edgar-poe-esque contraption until you cough up x
ascii_field: phf: all this will do is that you will waste cpu cycles on peers who are getting packetdropped by
usg mircea_popescu: banal shit, but : there's two kinds of men. there's those who assume the
usg is anon all powerful ; and those who've killed
usg agents after being bored to tears by their inept begging.
pete_dushenski: lobbes: in essence, the
usg's continued insistence that, in every regard and in every field, the map is the territory, is used to trip up both citizens and corporations wherever and wherever it might be convenient
ben_vulpes: lobbes:
usg tentacle is the catholic church's only future existence
pete_dushenski: funkenstein_: vw is under investigation for 'studying to the test' atm. i'm sure they'll be slapped with a big ol' fine by
usg and then watch their sales fall by 10-20%
lobbes: you also gotta love how he feels qualified to endorse the 'climate change' scam. smells like a
usg appendage to me
assbot: Logged on 23-09-2015 01:36:58; asciilifeform: also
usg giveth,
usg taketh away. a 'pharma ceo' has so much as one cent purely by the good graces of hitler - who helpfully keeps penny-a-pill indian generics mostly out of u.s. market
