ascii_field: the curator is what distinguishes an interesting leak site from a public
toilet.
assbot: Logged on 15-09-2015 21:28:51; mats:
the net's a vast place. so long as leaks are properly hashed, signed, and available in a public place, where it lives can be numerous

ascii_field: look what happens
to a box
that is even mildly interesting.
BingoBoingo: Perhaps some sort of spinoff related
to qntra
ascii_field: i had
the
thought once
that gossipd would make
this item quite
trivial
to implement
ascii_field: iirc mircea_popescu hosted some of
the leaked u.s.
telegrams at one point
☟︎ ascii_field: srsly, is it an impossibility
to have a 'cryptome'-like site run by
thinking folks ?
trinque: gotta wait
till $tardInt wraps
ascii_field: the signature belongs
to 0x4918FA4ED87D436C.
ascii_field: where is
the evidence
that
the author of
this message ever possessed
the keys claimed as compromised ?
ascii_field: it is signed with one of
the new keys promulgated
ascii_field: they sometimes die, yes. but regenerate much faster
than euro people.
ascii_field: mats:
the degree
to which it bends has been exaggerated for pr
mats: yet ru still properly stands, and chechnya bends
the knee
ascii_field: ru natural resources are
the west's sole chance of prolonging
the party.
trinque: instead of NATO
to
the south, fires
trinque: seems quite clear
that
the encirclement strategy never ended
ascii_field: the reason for
this is
that ru could not
take
the standard euro approach of extermination, because it is not how it works. it absorbs.
ascii_field: plainly,
there ~were~ problems dispensing
the lead.
ascii_field: or
the people killed in bombings in moscow
ascii_field: mats:
tell
this
to
the corpses of ru folks who used
to live in chechnia
ascii_field: how
the fuck did you get
the idea
that it was ?!
mats: how is
this a problem for ru? ru is largely ethnically and culturally homogenous, no?
☟︎ ascii_field: 'radical islam' is a usg golem created
to diddle ru
☟︎ mats: their wealth, influence, and manpower is
transnational,
transcontinental, requires no fuel from usg
to exist
mats: isis doesn't need
to destroy usg
to survive
mats: yes, in
the sense
that arsonist doesn't set fire
to all routes of own escape
ascii_field: does an arsonist need
to precisely specify
the shape of
the flames ?
☟︎ ascii_field: but
the degree of control usg actually wants or needs is minimal.
ascii_field: and as i stand in
the impalement queue, yes, i might agree
ascii_field: mats: i will agree when
there are isis patrols in washington.
mats: overplayed
this one
mats: I dunno
that
the west can control
this chaos

thestringpuller: funkenstein_: yea, as mircea_popescu once said. "A lot
to be learned on
the street"
funkenstein_: wait, lesbians? I'm gonna go watch a Disney movie now for
the first
time in like forever.
funkenstein_: "fuck it, let's all stand up"
thanks
thestringpuller, I never had grokked it fully
mircea_popescu: wow did disney actually make a "two lesbians" movie with
the gypsy chick and a snow-white knockoff in which
the male lead is
this evil dude with "burn for your witchcraft" ?
mircea_popescu: im sure
this is a "transaction" and
tax is assessed and some bean counter counts beans under "us industry"
shinohai: ;;later
tell davout btcjam kinda
touchy aren't
they?

that song was about slim shady not being a real person btw.
funkenstein_: Will
the real anton_osika please stand up, please stand up, please stand up.
anton_osika: aka. what one learns
talking
to
these people here..
anton_osika: If you have
time
to add it, also stating when you might be visiting Sweden
teaching a physics student
things about life he would not learn otherwise.
anton_osika: mircea_popescu: you wrote
the contract -
the "long party" is
the payer of
the invoice". Nowhere does it state
that
the "long party" will need a PGP signature for payment.
This is solely interpretation - and you are NOT paying for a future delivery contract. Do you have any rationale for
this?
shinohai: Well anton_osika
threats didn't work ...
anton_osika: mircea_popescu: Is
there anything
that would make you pay
the invoice?
mircea_popescu is starting
to
think about
this seriously. get
the girls unicicle rides
assbot: Logged on 24-08-2014 21:40:36; *: asciilifeform had a dream many years ago
that his grandfather
took an ancient grinding wheel from workshop,
turned it upside-down, and
taught him
to ride it. and now people actually do something quite like
this.
shinohai: Lots of beans and corn
tortillas is my guess.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: it
takes
tremendous athleticism
to actually ride
that
thing
mircea_popescu: shinohai how
the hell did she get
that butt with
the antiwalker device!
anton_osika: I kind of
take it
that you are quite constructive seeing what you create...
anton_osika: You are in
the position of having a very big impact on my view on how
to act in
this world.
anton_osika: mircea_popescu: you wrote
the contract -
the "long party" is
the payer of
the invoice". Nowhere does it state
that
the "long party" will need a PGP signature for payment.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: srsly,
try
to be interesting anton_osika ppl are getting sick of it.
shinohai: Please send 0.05 BTC
to 1nu11ampgw1GKrZSgn2q3JS8kZE88n6d5 if you want voice from me anton_osika
mod6: there might be a way
to do
this still, just might be a bit deeper
than i'ev looked so far.
mod6: that's why i initially liked it
too! but alas, if you can't grow
TB or BT,
then it gets hairy at 80 cols.
ascii_field: almost considered rewriting in perl myself, just
to use it
ascii_field: graph::easy has
the killer feature of ascii output!
mod6: yeah, i re-wrote v in perl, and it does all
the
traversing etc,
then i build
the graph with recursion and
the Graph::Easy mod.
ascii_field: but in point of fact,
this is a very favourable data set for plotting
ascii_field: or rather, not
that, either. but in bean counter
terms
mircea_popescu: ah i
thought it was something you brewed. somehow i
thought graphviz won't do it.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: np-complete does not mean unsolvable ! just means
that not solvable efficiently if
the data set is at all large
mod6: so
this can be automated, but some cleanup required. im just read
that you can make clickable links -- gonna give it a shot.
mircea_popescu: mod6 does it actually attempt
to minimize line length ? ascii_field you realise
this is a complete problem yes ?
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: aha! recall how you once observed
that it is astonishing
that i, in particular, manage
to
think about anything at all ?
mircea_popescu: see ascii_field ye olde "bitcoin perverts nsa"
thing ? cuts both ways. finding oneself in
the sort of situation
the usg finds itself ALSO perverts.
anton_osika: Seriously mircea_popescu. You wrote
the contract - it has a cause and you have got
the invoice paid.
mod6: only one part
that could be automated i
think; just dumped out
the graphviz config
to file, and
then
tweeked
the `rankdir'
to 'BT' for (bottom=>top) by hand.
then just gotta run dot
to generate
the image.
assbot: Logged on 02-08-2015 16:00:48; asciilifeform: can give
the 'atoms' electrostatic-style charge, so
they repel, and
the bonds - 'strain', so
they contract
mircea_popescu: dude he could be a us secretary or something
this guy. incredible how
the same verbiage flows from
the same circumstances.
mircea_popescu: because
the
thing shows some very promising AI in arranging
the boxes.
shinohai: But
the contract wasn't between kraken was it?
