midnightmagic: Completely boring contract law. We did end up destroying a multi-million dollar railroad company.
That was nice.
mircea_popescu: "o right. case dismiss. mr crown agent how can you be
this fucking careless, i'll have
to see you in my chambers robe!"
mircea_popescu: "your honor, i direct your attention
to page 792,paragraph H of
tome 9 of
the conspiracy
to overthrow
the world over! as you can clearly see, it says right
there i disagree with
things and stuff."
☟︎ midnightmagic: Also, it's not
true
that I've not interacted with courts. I've been interacting with courts, and making precedent, for decades.
mircea_popescu: yeah. and as we all know, asking a cop if he's a cop obliges him
to confess or else it's entrapment!
midnightmagic: It is not a fear. I'm not afraid of bashing such nonsense straight out of court, personally. But since when has
that stopped anyone from
trying
to earn
their paycheque? As is well-known,
the FBI appears
to be responsible for most of
the
terror plots it claims it foiled.
mircea_popescu: i just
think he's
the introvert
thinker
type
that never actually spent much
time interacting with actual courts.
cazalla: seeing you're one of few
to mention such fears, i
think you are planning something midnightmagic
midnightmagic: Ah.
That was a statement I *would* use
to deny seditionist conspiracy charges because I don't want
to leave here, but would direly hate
to find some enterprising law enforcement investigator pinning a false narrative on me because by not speaking, it could be argued I am
tacitly agreeing and/or sympathetic
to it, which would in my view be enough
to pin conspiracy on me.
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.
mircea_popescu: well unless you're also stockpiling
tanks and depth charges on
the quiet, i fail
to see how any of
this can in any manner no matter how creatively constructive be of any interest
to you. yes, rather obviously if you start shooting people and blowing up
things you'd better succeed because else you'll be put in prison.
midnightmagic: But
their *intent* was insurrection and sedition, if one accepts as premise
that Quebec's separation from Canada by force of arms is seditionist
to begin with.
midnightmagic: Yes, and explcitly-named anti-terrorist units were created and employed
to erode it and dissolve its public support.
midnightmagic: RCMP currently (as recently as a few years ago) would
take drunk people out in
the dead of winter and leave
them on
the side of
the road
to freeze
to death.
midnightmagic: Oh. Okay.
That might
take a while longer. History
texts usually don't include
the last few decades.
mircea_popescu: otherwise sure, canadian officers used
to convict local women
to being raped
to death or whatever 1720 nonsense.
mircea_popescu: midnightmagic no but
these are british ridiculousnesses from ww2. i mean an example from your actual lifetime.
BingoBoingo: Absolute worst part of Eve online
though was
the space 5-0 cramping everyone's style
mats: filling enemy clan channels
to
the user limit and spamming
the channel
mats: and
then use
their product cdkeys and proxies
to operate flood bots
mircea_popescu: a ok, maybe im just unfamiliar with
the
thing
then.
to me it's a you know, "point of history".
midnightmagic: It's not revisionism: historical documents and eyewitnesses were pretty clear on it. Additionally,
the footage doesn't match.
mats: BingoBoingo: 'clan wars' were a popular
thing for a long
time on battle.net
midnightmagic: sure. I'll give
two at least just on cursory examination: Oscar Felton in Alberta.
There was some commentary about
the Lusitania in R v.
Trainor.
mircea_popescu: (not sure how one'd go about verifyingthat bit of historical revisionism re de gaulle's visit, but
then again...(
midnightmagic: who was in control of
the footage. In reality, it was dead silent.
The crowd was shocked.
The fellow you're describing (presumably because he's
the only uncited reference in Wikipedia) would not at all be surprising
to me. At
that
time, Quebecois anti-Canada sentiment was *extremely radicalized*.
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu:
The Fils de Liberte were likely guilty of it. I don't know if
they were actually charged. Yes, a pile of people have been charged, and convicted, of sedition in Canada. Interesting semi-related factoid. de Gaulle when he gave his famous (in Canada) speech "vive le Quebec! vive le Quebec LIBRE!" and
the camera cuts
to uproariously jubilant crowd,
that's an edit by a separatiste
☟︎ assbot: Logged on 30-09-2015 22:32:33; mats: skywing (ken johnson, guy
that patented 'aslr') reversed
the battle.net login protocol, and i used his documentation
to write a chat client so i didn't have
to keep starcraft open
to maintain ops in a channel
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> ahahahaha o lawd have mewcyes! << Is
that a Carolina accent?
mircea_popescu: clearly
they got a full load,
there's no disputing
that. but where are
they going with it ?
mircea_popescu: WE can only
take so much mediocrity ? andwhere are
they
taking it
to ?

trinque: it seems
that ply parsers are one-shot, or I've missed something. So far my observation is
that if you call parse successively on
the same parser object, it misbehaves
mircea_popescu: midnightmagic for my curiosity, was sedition ever been successfully prosecuted in canada? it'd appear it actually helped rather
than hindered
that houde character, and
that was back in
the murky days of ww2.
BingoBoingo: The English could have benefited from diacritics, but now it is
too late
mircea_popescu: "you are supposed
to know what little dots go where!!1"
mircea_popescu: but yes, some sort of classical chinese is not even impossible for
the future. especially if i can get good at it by being lazy.
mircea_popescu: i suppose kakobrekla actually made microblogging poison just for me! i see
them in
the log, miniarticles, good enough.
BingoBoingo: And lets not forget
that mess
that will occur when you move
the blog
to either Mandarin or Khoisan 'click 'click language
mircea_popescu: i
think #b-a eats at least a dozen buds
that'd have been
trilema articles. but i just vent here and
thassat.
BingoBoingo: You still do movie reviews and random bitchings about Argentina on
the Blawg
mircea_popescu: yeah but
the bitch is, i'm all stately and portentuous nao. back in romania i used
to write about any old random shit nine
times a day.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> ah. you did yeah but actually lots of other ppl did
too. eventually i was like... lazy won't solvethis one. << /me pretty sure he suggested letting
the number of English articles catch up as a solution
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> cazalla no, because
trilema random rotation no longer displays romanian articles. <<
This was
the exact moment
that lead me
to stop
trying
to get better at Romanian
mircea_popescu: ah. you did yeah but actually lots of other ppl did
too. eventually i was like... lazy won't solvethis one.
cazalla: if memory serves, it was me
that complained about
that scam
mircea_popescu: for about a year or so now. so
that
thing could never have popped out by just going
to root. and i doubt he could have had a google string
that led
to it, seeing how you know, my romanian is like
triplesec.
mircea_popescu: cazalla no, because
trilema random rotation no longer displays romanian articles.
cazalla: or
that's
the page
that was displayed when he/she visited and figuring a comment field was available,
took a
turd
there?
BingoBoingo: And Bernie Sanders is just on a field
trip from
the "Memory Care" home (because Old Folks Home isn't PC)
mircea_popescu: "how
to make idiots preoccupied with our
thing ?
they no longer go for free giveaways" "ask
to pay for
their ideas"
BingoBoingo: Some actually hate
the rest of
the crowd, like Rubio. He is better because everyone keeps calling him
the spic even
though Cruz is a spic
too, but he's light/
cazalla: BingoBoingo, aren't
they all best buddies?
punkman: "Got an idea
that could improve cyber security? Submit your idea here for a chance
to win £10,000
https://www.cyber10k.trust/submit/" << I got one but I don't
think it's gonna win. BURN IT ALL DOWN
BingoBoingo: Trumps has said he's been running for president since
the 1990's. Everytime he's quit when
the polls first put him behind.
Trump is a serial quitter, gotta be with multiple bankruptcy's
cazalla: none of
them cunts can be
the
trump cause he be
trumpin'
BingoBoingo: And holy shit, Marco Rubio has passed Jed Bush as BitBet's favored candidate for
the Repube'ican nomination
through nothing but "No" votes
to Jeb
BingoBoingo: ;;later
tell pete_dushenski I got a comment in your que
☟︎ cazalla: meh,
that kid is just copying some old video
that did
that shit a decade or longer ago
mod6: thx asciilifeform, i knew
that didn't look right.
brg444: do
they really...? i'm often curious if it is not "subsidized"
BingoBoingo: But generally except for a few lucky chinese miners,
the farms have
to pay for electricity
BingoBoingo: Maybe reading
too much. Maybe finding a
trend.
brg444: or maybe I'm just reading
too much into a couple of charts...
brg444: how is it
that
these variance seem coordinated by one or small group of actors? and if
they do control
that much hashing why would
they have
to pay for electricity
brg444: still amazes me someone out
there can
turn on/off nearly 100,000,000 GH/S with
the flick of a wrist
