ascii_field: Matanov isn’t the first person to be sentenced under such circumstances.'
ascii_field: 'The absence of evidence shouldn’t be viewed as proof of guilt, but tell that to the U.S. federal court—where Khairullozhon Matanov received a 30-month sentence in mid-June, in part for deleting his browser history.

ascii_field: for both from-vacuum creation of files (as in 'genesis') and the later patches.
ascii_field: but the resulting vpatches work, when applied with conventional gnupatch
ascii_field: mod6, ben_vulpes, mircea_popescu, et al: here is an experiment: change ' print $0 " " o ' in vdiff.sh to ' print $1 " " $2 " " o '. this results in timestamp amputation. the patches work fine, except that gnupatch is no longer aware of preexisting files and will happily create the same file twice, if so run, glomming on top of itself. ☟︎

mircea_popescu: the only thing that matters re propaganda is whether it gets repeated. that's 100% of it.
mircea_popescu: not like they have an actual perspective or anything to say
mircea_popescu: not so naturally. why is the thing still getting links i don't get it ?
mircea_popescu: somehow they never heard about more recent events.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field the motherboard article you linked says "satoshi" exactly once, ands that is to claim "and Satoshi showed with some basic calculations that hardware improvements were very likely to outpace Bitcoin growth for decades into the future."
danielpbarron: rotor feels like a "safe space" to borrow some redditard terminology

mircea_popescu chuckles at the thought of some [not so ?] distant time in the future when various derps will discover that "nobody could have predicted" they had a lengthy record of shit to answer for in the logs.

mircea_popescu: ajhahaha wut the fuck already.
mircea_popescu: i have nfi who these guys are, they didn't have the modicum of a clue to make contact or anything. for all i know the whole thing's an orchestrated attempt to shore up the notion that anyone still gives a shit about the usg inside the us.

chetty: a tad more blatant than the usg methods

ascii_field: 'There is nothing illegal that the government there is not into. The government is smart if you just go there as an American you will not be bothered. I lived in the jungles where I was the only white person, and they were on to me. They asked me for $2M, weeks later 40+ armed men stormed my house, shot my favorite dog, and held me in the sun with my hands tied. The next day the congressman came and apoligized and asked
