usg ascii_field: nah i can die so
usg becomes sole relayer.
pete_dushenski: mats you've also read about the merits of
usgavin's noble for the community on reddit.
mircea_popescu: there is no basis that i can perceive on which one could propose that the term "quantum" as used by
usg in any context has any meaning.
mircea_popescu: ridiculous. anyway, let teh
usg keep on with the curves, wut.
mircea_popescu: "teh shield of teh

BingoBoingo: By this form a tab of LSD to asciilifeform may extend his life a decade, or
USG whims could change
BingoBoingo:
USG though always operates under the assumption Nixon era "Drugs once damaged forever" cridibility doctrine holds
BingoBoingo: Hastings may very well have simply pushed his luck one too many times with reckless behavior. In true Hunter S. Thompson fashion. Even then it would still be interesting to know what he was working on. A lesson for acoyltes of the press? << Thompson preserved his live by straddling the edge of credibility. "To weird to die" was likely both his motto and official
USG policy.
BingoBoingo: The law enforcement - Biker gang connection even leaks into
USG blessed pop culture from time to time.
BingoBoingo: "Motorcycle Gangs" is
USG code for blessed sons of the DEA. Nearly all their contemporary membership is eather hobbyist medical pros or former Law enforcement
ascii_field: (for n00bz: 'remote attestation' is this crackpot concept where
usg has permanent root (yes) on 'your' computer, and uses it to verify that you aren't, e.g., running illegal linux)
mircea_popescu: current computer science favours the speed of light over other speeds "much more important to "us"". it is a serious fucking problem for
usg/nsa/alphabetsoup that there still exist people who even vaguely understand what this shit even is, because even one in a million that can make actual decisions based on actual facts when that asshole asciilifeform publishes things about pgp keys or that asshole mircea_popescu thre
BingoBoingo:
USG agitators slacking on their Purge incitement
mircea_popescu: that was broadly my point, that the infantile "
usg closes down so we're closing this park, and you'll be sorry!11" dies right here.
mircea_popescu: the only difference being that the
usg was not either powerful enough or attentive enough to give a shit either way about consoles in the 80s.
mats: mircea_popescu: and
USG is powerless to project power.
ascii_field: anyway mcaffee is something almost like a real person and not a good candidate. loose cannon from
usg pov

☟︎ decimation: apparently there are special teams of
usg employees for 'processing' such important folks
mircea_popescu: stalin despised the peasant, and the
usg despises the scum we despise, equally if not moreso.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> it's a game. who do they actually interdict, the "criminal" "biker gangs" ? << Much of this demographic is
USG. Not in the informant sense, but
USG peeps needed meanign in their lives.
assbot: Logged on 05-08-2015 02:24:30; asciilifeform: the common belief in ru, i will note, is that
usg involvement in afghan is ~strictly, solely~ so that ru cities are rotted with heroin
decimation: yeah makes sense. looks like
usg's weather bureau is calling for a cold and wet winter for the southern half of the us
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> the common belief in ru, i will note, is that
usg involvement in afghan is ~strictly, solely~ so that ru cities are rotted with heroin << US pretty rotten with heroin too. DEA pressure on doctors and economy will do that.
decimation: I suspect that
usg isn't too heartbroken over it
decimation: yeah, because
usg is too lazy to do it
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: you may also discover the little 'secret' re: how ham folks keep
usg from selling their spectrum to the highest bidder (or most favourite son) << The part where cellular is worthless?
mircea_popescu: those 8 years were started in a much better time for
usg.
mircea_popescu: if that bunch of watsap scammers got 20bn, i have no idea why anyone would take less than 10 bn a head from
