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 ?
nubbins`: all of a sudden
the freewheelin hitchhikin hippies aren't so stupid :0
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: 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.
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
nubbins`: FWIW fresh 0.5.3.1-RELEASE on gentoo, building openssl by itself: Makefile:640: recipe for
target 'install_docs' failed
trinque: and
that in developing
this capacity it was inevitable
that
they'd bring it home
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.
☟︎ 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?
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.""
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.
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
ascii_field: in
the martian colony, circa 4000 ad, yes.
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: trinque bitcoin is factually a
threat
to
the usg "national security". it exists
to end
them.
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: you might want
to have some other fella, who isn't
to hang soon, maintain serenissima-linux.
mircea_popescu: but when a cow
thinks itself a farmer and
thinks
the farmer a cow...
ascii_field: word 'illegal'
to
them only applies
to misbehaviour of
the cattle
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
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: ascii_field if
there was, you'd know it by
this sign,
that he'd glass new york anyway.
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
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: mircea_popescu: it built on
their boxes, on account of ????? in
their gcc.
assbot: Logged on 01-04-2015 18:24:13; ascii_field: ^ and i refuse
to do
this.
