ascii_field: i don't get it, how did buggery become
the 'standard' ?
ascii_field: 'the irish maidens have not lost
their virtue, merely misplaced it by an inch' (TM) (R)
ascii_field amused
that ^this is exotic while buggery - sop
ascii_field: just
that iirc all of
the gurlz are being buggered
ascii_field: afaik it works great for 1+2 and
therefore meets spec
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: it was made
to 1) intimidate 2) churn money
ascii_field: mircea_popescu:
the airplane was not built for victories
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: very much broken assumption here,
though
mircea_popescu: anyone wonder why
they prefer
to win imaginary victories via bribing whatever newspaper is fashionable
that day ? shit's damned expensive.
mircea_popescu: this means each aerial victory
the us has obtained
through its most successful program
to date cost ~350 million dollars.
mircea_popescu: since we were discussing airplanes : f-15, pretty much
the only successful military jet
to be ever designed and produced by
the us by itself, has cost ~35 bn for
the ~1200 items produced, and has managed a
total kill score of ~100.
ascii_field: i conjecture
that
the overlap of
these and
the folks using chump-pgp is a null set
mircea_popescu: i'd much rather
take someone's word. which requires people motivated by
their own functioning head.
ascii_field: naturally bounty would require proving
that
the animal existed in
the wild prior
to
the discovery
mircea_popescu: (i could diddle one
too, what use is it. we need
the actual item, not something custom made)
mircea_popescu: the chumps derping about self-importantly on "cryptographic" "lists" etc are certainly using it - but so far
too dumb
to realise
they shyould be looking.
ascii_field: unrelated: anybody locate
the inevitable pgp client which only looks at bottom (or
top) 32 bits of each 64-bit modulus chunk when computing fingerprint ?
ascii_field: some kinds of pet, for instance, may be
turned loose
to roam and hunt
mircea_popescu: ascii_field well inasmuch as
that's what "produce milk, pull cart,
turn millstone" means, you did.
assbot: Logged on 27-05-2015 19:44:02; mircea_popescu: ascii_field for
the record ben_vulpes has a point. unmilked cow gets mastitis, unexercised slavegirl gets neurosis.
mircea_popescu: i can see why,
too. if
there's no actual items involved
there's much less risk
to doing it all, as nobody can ever be shown definitively
to have fucked up.
jurov: pics are nowhere mentioned,
they§ll stay unencrypted
mircea_popescu: mats not just
the
thunderbolt. same story with
the warthog. idea being basically "we wish
to move on from
this real-items
tethered system of bezzle
to a system of pure bezzle. we do not wish
to have any further actual items involved in
the entire allocation and expenditure of budgets
thing"
jurov: more like "intended
to keep application data away from phone owner"
mircea_popescu: jurov seems
they're making
the point quite plainly : "we call
this encryption, but really it's only intended
to keep your pictures on stolen phones away from
the
thief. nothing absolutely
to do with security, just a gimmick"
mircea_popescu: ascii_field for
the record ben_vulpes has a point. unmilked cow gets mastitis, unexercised slavegirl gets neurosis.
☟︎ mod6: my full sync's (non-pogo) with v0.5.3.1 are about
the same 44-45Gb
danielpbarron: it's about
the same size on my non-pogo node; how big is it for
the "core" implementation
ascii_field: good riddance and
three cheers
to
the eventual replacement of all usg aircraft with paper airplanes.
mats: which would be fine except
there's no way
to replace
the capability of
the A-10 with something else
mats: so, whats going on here is
that
the USAF has been
trying
to kill
the A-10 aircraft for some
time now, largely on
the basis
that
they don't really give a shit about
the Army and don't want
to provide support
to other programs with money from
their own budget
ben_vulpes: not husbandry in
the marital sense, ascii_field
ascii_field: i keep pet. other people, if
they like, can keep livestock
☟︎ assbot: Logged on 27-05-2015 16:56:58; ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> when i say 'pet' i mean very specific
technical
term, 'creature kept around for company
that isn't required
to produce milk, pull cart,
turn millstone' << opposite of good husbandry, ftr

assbot: Logged on 27-05-2015 15:01:32; jurov: btw, i have fully arranged moving my ass deep into western germany... if not for pet's problems would prolly already be
there
assbot: Logged on 24-05-2015 15:09:42; mircea_popescu: mats eh,
this is just a dog and pony show for young rand etc. what'll happen is
the wh backe,d house vetted solution where
the nsa doesn't keep
the records, phone companies do, nsa just asks for what it needs.
mats: " Obama noted
that
the controversial bulk phone collections program, which was exposed by National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden, is reformed in
the House bill, which does away with it over six months and instead gives phone companies
the responsibility of maintaining phone records
that
the government can search."
mircea_popescu: amusingly, romania had a similar
thing going coupla years ago, sent half
the coaches/club heads/trainers etc in
the country behind bars
mircea_popescu: i suspek it's mostly because i use "good pet" as a congratulatory
term. as opposed
to variations of "you motherfuckin' bitch you!" and so on.
mircea_popescu: i will for
the record point out
that
the way alf and apparently everyone else's adopted "pet"
to refer
to
their SO is driving some of
the slavegirls up
the fucking walls.
jurov: btw, i have fully arranged moving my ass deep into western germany... if not for pet's problems would prolly already be
there
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform he has a point. yes,
they will
try, which is why you (the impersonal you) wants
to get out of
there.
mircea_popescu: <mircea_popescu> in any case :
the beatings will continue.
mircea_popescu: lmao schmuck is STILL going on with his retarded "no comments allowed" posts about how bitcoin
this or
that ?

mircea_popescu: soon enough usg folk will be able
to eat paper and so on.
mircea_popescu: but
then you yourself do notice
that no,
they can't eat, when you say "folks pointing out
that if you want
to eat
these
things -today-, you need -significantly- better connections and de-facto 5-10x
the money."
mircea_popescu: weren't you insisting, a day or
two ago,
that "these folks can still eat - unaffacted" ?
mircea_popescu: the idea is
to make it impossible for anyone
to use it for any useful purpose.
mircea_popescu: the idea isn't
to make it impossible for
the usg
to pretend like itexists.
mircea_popescu: by which i mean facebook and its spawn,
twitter, reddit etc.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nor is
there any hope for naive "social media" pseudo-businesses in
the future.
jurov: also you forget
that you have
to buy ssd for
the pogo
