ascii_field: nubbins`: when the canadian affiliate of usg decides that nubbins` is a t3rr0r1st!!!1111!!1 and supplying mains current to his home is an atrocity which must end, 'underground economy' will do so in its place ?
thestringpuller: ascii_field: this is why we have organized crime.
nubbins`: all of a sudden the freewheelin hitchhikin hippies aren't so stupid :0
thestringpuller: for all those drug dealing just to get by
ascii_field: so it isn't simply a matter of physically getting out - any idiot with 1k-usd or so can do that. but you also have to completely divorce the 'legit global economy'
ascii_field: this also includes folks who have nothing to do with usa but live in a nato muppet state
ascii_field: re: earlier thread: i will point out that folks who got on the plane and left usa borders but still earn a living from something on which usg might exert pressure, directly or indirectly, are still inmates of usaschwitz.
mircea_popescu: "To those that suggest that the Sun has something to do with the weather, I say that is just a superstition. The Sun is far too far away to have any effect on the neighborhood. And besides, the Sun comes up in the winter, but it does not stay warm. But, as soon as people stop using lawnmowers, it gets cold. So, it seems obvious and irrefutable that carbon dioxide causes global warming, and lawnmowers are the main sourc
mircea_popescu: " Lawnmowers have a nearly immediate effect on the local climate, too. In my area, lawnmowers are rarely used at night, and even 8-hours of lawnmower inactivity can cool the neighborhood by 20-degrees Fahrenheit. The tight correlation between lawnmower use and temperature is so closely related, that the scientific debate on the subject should be closed."
mircea_popescu: just as good as any "earth science" out there.
mircea_popescu: most always hot weather. And, as lawnmower use starts to taper in the fall, it starts getting cooler again."
mircea_popescu: in other news, "It seems obvious to me that global warming is caused by carbon dioxide, and the main source of carbon dioxide is lawnmowers. I have noticed over the years that it gets really cold during the winter, and during that time I rarely hear lawn mowers. But, as soon as I start hearing the occasional lawnmower in the neighborhood, it starts getting warmer. By midsummer when I hear lawnmowers every day, it is al
mircea_popescu: heck, BingoBoingo has some stories about how it applied to him already, give or take.
ascii_field: this also applies to the other schmucks
mircea_popescu: but this is not news.
mircea_popescu: if you derp much longer in there, yes.
mircea_popescu: anyway, alligns incentrives correctly. "have you or anyone you know or care about been stolen from by the usg ? come join the people working to take away its shit"
ascii_field: just that mr o can push a button, and send me to beg for spare change and 'big mac' on highway.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field im not saying it's a complete solution. i am saying it is a lot more than nothing.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: 'further compensation to satisfy at least five times the value of property lost at the time the loss occurred' << their favourite thing is not only to steal lands, houses (who even has these any more) but to freeze bank account and then have fun staying out of the street and the morgue, much less paying attorney
ascii_field: nubbins`: tex bug
ascii_field: nubbins`: iirc that never worked
nubbins`: FWIW fresh 0.5.3.1-RELEASE on gentoo, building openssl by itself: Makefile:640: recipe for target 'install_docs' failed

trinque: yesterday I spent a fair amount of time thinking about how the US was already the totalitarian govt of much of the world long before I was born
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: the us thug is actually more thuggish than the ru thug << ru thug did not come to texas, arm the republic of texas separatists so they can shell dallas, and raise international stink of 'consensus' when the locals defend it
assbot: Logged on 01-04-2015 19:25:48; ben_vulpes: what's the difference between acuitas and acuitatis?
ascii_field: just hearing him talk... was like suffering a case of food poisoning
mircea_popescu: ascii_field oh meanwhile i recall who callas is. the reason i don't like openpgp!
trinque: notably though, all pretense of some exempt caste aside from the ruling class is now gone
ascii_field: his word - like that of the other great tyrants of his time - was enough.
ascii_field: what 'protocol' did he follow for the jp internment thing ?
mircea_popescu: im kinda curious how is jurov going to rationalise away the fact that on the balance of things, the us thug is actually more thuggish than the ru thug. ☟︎
ascii_field: arguably fdr was the first
trinque: not yeah, I walk down two halls or whatever
trinque: ascii_field: yes but surely there was at least a veneer of protocol there?
ascii_field: trinque: nah, lbj did that
mircea_popescu: trinque yes. he now has more powers than putin.
trinque: did the president just decree himself able to steal property over any vaguely defined "threat" whatsoever
mircea_popescu: or to quote, "Goddamn right, that's right. Guys come on: "Oh, the blah blah blah, I know what I'll do: I'll go in and rob everyone blind and go to Argentina cause nobody ever thought of this before.""
trinque does a double take
ascii_field: but i could almost -smell- the mendacity
ascii_field: not that old.
ascii_field: wanted to throw up
ascii_field listened (in car) to an infuriatingly zimmermanish interview with jon callas (former pgp, now 'silent circle' garbage) ☟︎
ascii_field: the weakest link is the people, not the machines.
mircea_popescu: hey, you ever dumped the history in there ?
trinque: I'm thinking deedbot wants something other than http and dns if it is to survive
ascii_field: trinque: mine's not done. and i don't think the other fella's is, either. but ask him
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i'm thinking more like 2030s.
ascii_field: in the martian colony, circa 4000 ad, yes.
trinque: so how about that gossipd
mircea_popescu: ascii_field well, eventually 1 btc will be ample fortune for one to live.
assbot: Logged on 01-04-2015 19:07:26; ben_vulpes: danielpbarron: plz to report build failures!
mircea_popescu: http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-04-2015#1082481 << he has a point. failures are potentially more important than successes.
ascii_field: will have to learn to ecdsa in head.
mircea_popescu: trinque bitcoin is factually a threat to the usg "national security". it exists to end them.
ascii_field: trinque is posting from the sea ?
trinque: when they declare working on a piece of open source a threat to national security, time to find a shore and start swimming
assbot: Logged on 12-03-2015 01:41:14; asciilifeform: 'Bien Darkmans then, Bouse Mort and Ken The bien Coves bings awast, On Chates to trine by Rome-Coves dine, For his long lib at last.'
ascii_field: mircea_popescu morituri te salutant !
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: you might want to have some other fella, who isn't to hang soon, maintain serenissima-linux.
mircea_popescu: anyway, let's up the stakes a little here.
mircea_popescu: this has to come to blow
mircea_popescu: but when a cow thinks itself a farmer and thinks the farmer a cow...
mircea_popescu: interestingly enough, i take the same view.
ascii_field: not to farmer.
ascii_field: word 'illegal' to them only applies to misbehaviour of the cattle
mircea_popescu: i just told him so.
ascii_field: like every criminal, the officials of usg do precisely as much as they can comfortably get away with.
chetty: but who is going to tell him so?
mircea_popescu: ascii_field he might have the ability. does not have the right.
mircea_popescu: no, rights are exactly not that, which is why the concept even exists.
ascii_field: which is to say, he can push a button and i starve
ascii_field: he has the ability.
chetty: well dont people generally have the rights they step up and take?
mircea_popescu: anyway, for the record : the us president does not have the rights it gives itself.
mircea_popescu: somethinglike thjat.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field if there was, you'd know it by this sign, that he'd glass new york anyway.
ascii_field: but there is not at present such a king.
ascii_field: if there is and you can demonstrate readiness to use it - as in, 'we catch ONE more blackwater in donbass and new york is glass' - then possibly no
mircea_popescu: ascii_field and especially if there is.
mircea_popescu: anyone "owning" in the us is deluding themselves.
ascii_field: as i've said perhaps a dozen times, if there isn't an icbm battery between you and the lunatic nato reich - you're fair game to them.
mats: and ya don't even have to be american to participate. democracy.
ascii_field: mats: schmuck on the street, if any of them read it, will mutter 'good, they'll hang spammers finally' or the like.
mats: "three govt officials can pwn your shit at will on the basis of evidence at least as good as obama's attribution of the sony attack to north korea"
ascii_field: re: mein Führer's decree: when i tell folks i have an expiration date in the none too distant future - they laugh.
mircea_popescu: not for being likely, but for it being exactly the way in which that unlikely'd be seen.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i would not waste the gentlemens' time if i did not think this were interesting.
mircea_popescu: for all we know, this is how the universally diddled compiler is discovered.
mircea_popescu: a) i don't think think this would have been caught by pretty much any other outfit on the planet and b) i don't see the proposition we've found a deep seated hole is readily dismissable.
ascii_field: i promise to say when find out.
mircea_popescu: maybe it's thompson's drillbit ?
mircea_popescu: well what is the ????
