asciilifeform: (usg is happy to preside over the mothballing of perfectly-working su nuke plants, this is a very effective colonization instrument)
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=24-12-2015#1351639 << it'll happen with usg diesel dispensed on usurious credit - as in bulgaria ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=24-12-2015#1351575 << i tried it! on pi-1. not enough i/o bandwidth. but the problem with all 'pi' machines is rather different - it is the presence of a dedicated, always-on usg mysterymeat cpu core ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=24-12-2015#1351462 << BECAUSE, importantly, the only remaining function of the british colony, its only significant export and sole raison d'etre left is exactly this playing the extraterritorial base for the USG role. you know, obama is not spying on you, the queen is (and sharing the results). we hope this legalistic subtlety makes all the difference to you! ☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: also a great many firms that do reversing for no-questions-asked-mostly-usg
ascii_field: without identity, anti-dos measures are simply buttons which usg can push to make you disconnect a friend.
mircea_popescu: next time you wanna challenge the powers that be, dear usg, grow a fucking pair of balls first.
mircea_popescu: https://archive.is/myavK <<< good for a lulz. all the people nobody ever hearfd about, usgavin one behind buterin (lol, check it out, it almost exactly maps what the dept of being dumb online actually things about its moles) and apparently the usg.bitcoin initiative got new leadership. "Since being brought in to head MIT's Digital Currency Initiative (DCI) this April, the ex-White House senior advisor has made great st
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: http://hackaday.com/2015/12/21/heres-the-reason-the-faas-drone-registration-system-doesnt-make-sense << usg lulz
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=22-12-2015#1350295 << aaaand Official Truth proclaims that the thing was not a usg op getting burned. aha, who wants to buy bridge ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: usg found its level.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=21-12-2015#1349525 << usg's vaguely quakerist state religion eats considerably more than 10% ☝︎
asciilifeform: anyway i predicted usgcoin shortly after i first logged in here
mircea_popescu: anyway, i happen to agree. there's absolutely no reason usg.jwz has any business touching bitcoin at any point.
mircea_popescu: usg gotta split the muppets off bitcoin chain. one way or another, but IT GOTTA BE DONE!!1
BingoBoingo: ;;later tell TheNewDeal Have you considered lithium cooling for your brain to increase USG resistance?
TheNewDeal: !rate TheNewDeal -10 potential USG spy, suspected terror alert
TheNewDeal: !rate TheNewDeal potential USG spy, suspected terror alert
asciilifeform: 'valuable usg doorknob!'
Birdman: TheNewDeal: It was explained to me as such, the unsustainable inefficient entity that is the USG probably isnt even capable of pulling off schemes like you suggest
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: actually i can hardly think of better name than 'vuvuzela' for a usg idiocy built solely to drown out intelligent thought
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: there is not a single such 'group' in planet 3 that isn't either a) usg tendril b) full of stoolies and candidate for gasenwagen
assbot: Logged on 05-07-2015 15:10:28; asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=05-07-2015#1188163 << this is why, when dealing with a usg-powered entity, the correct procedure is not 'disclosure', which will be censored and hushed up; but - total annihilation
asciilifeform: classic usgization
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-12-2015#1348422 << by now everybody knows the usg academitard modus operandi ☝︎
asciilifeform: when the idiot ukrs sent their gold reserve to usg
asciilifeform: 'only usg knows how to open this box therefore nobody'
asciilifeform: the only flaw is that, on the naked net as we now have it, usg can inject poor tx in between any two nodes
asciilifeform: interesting fella. very persistent in his multi-year braindamage; what moves him? usg kidnapped his dog? mining pool ?
asciilifeform: (they don't register their marriages with usg, qualify as 'single mother' cases)
assbot: Logged on 19-12-2015 16:02:21; PeterL: liquidassets: I owed about 110k on the mortgage, house sold for about 35k. So I guess it was more like 75k "income" that was "forgiven" by USG for taxes.
asciilifeform: because as far as i can see from my periscope, the towelheads are as necessary for usg as air ?
asciilifeform: the towelheads are usg contractors in good standing.
asciilifeform: usg can do pretty much whatever it wants, to them.
PeterL: liquidassets: I owed about 110k on the mortgage, house sold for about 35k. So I guess it was more like 75k "income" that was "forgiven" by USG for taxes. ☟︎
PeterL: ^ I short-sold a house a few years ago, was lucky enough to fall in the time frame USgov was doing a special "excluding mortgage losses from taxes" stint
ascii_field: it is what it is. (bombastic usg turd)
ascii_field: market consists solely of usgistic (costs like a car) and chinese parody (yer an audiophile and cattle and stfu buy this turd)
ascii_field: Run Moar Usgware
mircea_popescu: liquidassets just being "acquihired" into the other dying usgtron.
mircea_popescu: atever exists is at best a paraeconomical concern surviving more on ideological fit than in satisfying objective measures. what, if "customers" are dissatisfied with the usg food or pills dispensaries they'll do what exactly ?
assbot: Logged on 18-12-2015 13:31:51; mircea_popescu: the same exact process used in "policing" the ghetto, at the taxpayer's expense but in the usg's own private benefit is also what the us military does abroad. the point isn't for iraq to functyion or not, the point is for there to not exist any gaddafi's. let the euros deal with the fallout, what, that's what the castrated suckers are there for anyway.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-12-2015#1346305 << the corollary of this is that usg luuuvvvs mass theft and rape SO LONG AS it is carried out by disorganized 'brownian motion' monkeys ☝︎
mircea_popescu: it's stupid, but it's exactly in line with how usg is stupid, so no big surprises here. by all means, they should have 'em.
assbot: 6 results for 'usgcoin' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=usgcoin
asciilifeform: !s usgcoin
mircea_popescu: between mob-run ny, which functions smoothly and is culturally relevant and ghetto-choked baltimore, which does not function and is culturally irrelevant, the usg will pick the second every time.
mircea_popescu: the same exact process used in "policing" the ghetto, at the taxpayer's expense but in the usg's own private benefit is also what the us military does abroad. the point isn't for iraq to functyion or not, the point is for there to not exist any gaddafi's. let the euros deal with the fallout, what, that's what the castrated suckers are there for anyway. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-12-2015#1346223 << this is exactly correct, by the way. either the recent lafond piece or else your own familiarity with the ghetto will readily inform you that police activity is not directed at preventing theft or damage, but simply at preventing the emergence of large or powerful organisations that might in any way or to any degree challenge the sovereignity of the usg itself. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: the real driver is that the USG is much more adequate to governing robots than people. that women are more robot-like than men is just biological happenstance
mircea_popescu: the real driver isn't that USG wants to favour women over men.
asciilifeform: yes, 'they can't spend your coin' but neither can you without usg's permission.
asciilifeform: phreeeeee mark3t competition for candidacy to Offficial usgcoin (tm) (r) (c) !!111
assbot: Logged on 17-12-2015 22:25:37; ascii_field: tibet - originally a theocratic hellhole that makes medival catholicism look tolerant and economically +ev - is today a usg-maintained 'antichina'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: no usg deed, no city hookups
asciilifeform: they are partly so that local police precincts can join the party, partly to administer off-the-record rootkit installations, and partly for usg to circumvent own red tape ('parallel construct')
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-12-2015#1345740 << at this point even children in zimbabwe likely know that not only does usg record every phone call in nato reich, but has been doing so since hdd platter cost fell to where it was economically feasible. but the portable mitm gadgets are for something else ☝︎
pete_dushenski: for usg to think that way for death star would be like han solo, in the middle of a fire fight, sitting down to pen a phd thesis on whether or not he should pull the laser trigger
BingoBoingo: Mebbe USG priced it with plans to actually take delivery, hence bezzle markup?
ascii_field: tibet - originally a theocratic hellhole that makes medival catholicism look tolerant and economically +ev - is today a usg-maintained 'antichina' ☟︎
ascii_field: ergo quintessentially usgistic.
mircea_popescu: punkman the fraud consisting of you know, "being-not-usg".
assbot: Logged on 17-12-2015 04:42:33; asciilifeform: nk was a successful exporter of heavy machinery prior to usg proclaiming it excommunicated and anyone trading with it likewise excommunicated from the mother church
asciilifeform: nk was a successful exporter of heavy machinery prior to usg proclaiming it excommunicated and anyone trading with it likewise excommunicated from the mother church ☟︎
ascii_field: esp. after anglos (brit first, then modern usg) had the brilliant idea of nurturing a counter-ru bantustan there
ascii_field: nubbins` would like to see ~more vigorous~ usg workers ?!
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=16-12-2015#1344426 << usg^H^H^Heloi lama sabachthani !!1111 ☝︎
mircea_popescu: every shot policeman, every dollar embezzled, witheld from the irs, every subpar item delivered to the usg, everything.
ascii_field: eh there remain many megatonnes of fat to be trimmed from plebes like asciilifeform , ben_vulpes , et al before the usg ruling caste bleeds
mircea_popescu: every time you leave the us, and continue to extract dollars from the us which however the usg can't tax, and spend them in kirgiztan, but so the kirgiztan also cant' tax, both bleed a little.
ascii_field: it is no surprise of any kind that usg is obsessed with 'automatic car'.
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=15-12-2015#1343365 << i thought it was a wallet-dust/'coin taint track' usgtron ☝︎
asciilifeform: everybody wants an everything 'pliable to no one but me.' 'i want a meat edible to me but not flies.' 'grain for me but not mice.' 'unix box for me but not usg.' etc
asciilifeform: let's say usg had not supplied the goat fuckers with modern rockets, infinite ammo, food, etc. then what, precisely, would've distinguished them from the red indians ?
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-12-2015#1342327 << you mean the attack by the arab auxiliary arm of usg on the idiot euro auxiliary arm of usg ? ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-12-2015#1342324 << we already know that nsa doesn't spy, in the usual sense. usg prefers sabotage. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: and seriously, see the part where the mp of this space says "This can not be emphasized enough : you can not be building any type of business on any sort of Gavinism, because they will not survive on the middle term. It's not just the Bitcoins, that you would have lost had I not murdered "XT". Everything - every hour you spend "developing" atop the crud USG agents try to stick in Bitcoin is a wasted hour, because the s
pete_dushenski: ok, and how many iphones does usg have to buy off china to pay the israelis for 100k asic chips ?
asciilifeform: (what does it cost usg to order intel to bake 100,000 14nm asics ?)
adlai: from the "dear usg, please send more clowns." department: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3why40/im_done_with_bitcoin_fees_are_too_high/cxwcftq
mircea_popescu: specifically to get your two years interdiction, usg needs to control 99.999% of the network, and admitting half an exahash was legit that requires they get a further 50 or so yotahashes. and that nobody else does anything.
mircea_popescu: to obtain similar performance to wires in this respect [delay only, not in all the others, you still get bitcoin, rather than usg-fiat moved around] you need a 0.2%ish of the network.
adlai invites agents of all horsemen, not just USG, to make such proof worthless; not because he's too lazy to make it worthwhile himself, but because he just wants two coins to rub together
adlai: offer null and void for usg's L_n presence, its keys don't verify with the blessed rings
adlai: obviously this payment is only owed if the proof is in a form acceptable to any and all future investors in my shinola distillery, usg ktulu or otherwise
asciilifeform: on a usg scale
shinohai: The usg would prlly like to have a chat with him then.
adlai: signs your OS may be ossifying into usgification: `git svn clone` conjures up KDE Wallet Manager on a separate machine's X display
mircea_popescu: if they were after eastern european votes they'd be going "support a stronger usg because you as a group have the institutional memory to show what a great idea a soviet union is, and the scars to prove it!"
asciilifeform: usgineze
asciilifeform: before usg is through, we WILL have sov-style disposable cpu.
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: that's giving the usg a lot of credit on the 'wisdom' front, certainly more than they've warranted thus far.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Consider though the wisdom of USG miner propping up foreign pools that through serendipity introduce instability to the network
assbot: Logged on 10-12-2015 14:52:15; asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=10-12-2015#1340251 << l0l, miner usgocalypse ?
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=10-12-2015#1340358 << usg miners mining under antpool and f2pool umbrellas ?? https://blockchain.info/pools?timespan=4days ☝︎
asciilifeform: miner usgocalypse, possibly
ascii_field always has, in back of head, suspicion that 'usg' is catastrophically misnamed, considering that the communicable disease in question goes back to at least voltaire
mircea_popescu: the usg is mere detritus resulting from malfunctioning metabolism
mircea_popescu: you keep thinking the usg a prime mover
