asciilifeform: at any rate, i'll summarize for the impatient. according to sachs, snowden heap was lifted. but under cia (his original and actual employer) direction. and then carefully selected.
asciilifeform: no one has, afaik, seen it fit to refute any of it.
asciilifeform: sachs also lists names, times, places of folks 'suicided' by usg, with reasons.
asciilifeform: and that details of -specific- compromises, clearly apparent from context in some of the docs, were scrubbed
nubbins`: anyway, you're correct in that nothing leaked was particularly damaging to the lizards
asciilifeform: nubbins`: that's your 'incredulity immune system' healthily working
asciilifeform: it shuffled in and was permitted to spread, to lend credibility to the rest of the pile.
asciilifeform: but came from the other fella
asciilifeform: recall that the nsa devices catalogue was -not- a snowden leak
asciilifeform: that is, why not a single one of the 'leaks' actually damaged any tangible lizard interest
asciilifeform: and fits the known facts more tightly than anything else i've encountered
nubbins`: how about if he claims to be a martian in every communique? 8)
asciilifeform: the story, to the extent it can be checked out, checks out.
asciilifeform: nubbins`: i don't give a damn if he claims to be a martian
nubbins`: "I am a Harvard classmate of top US leaders" the wankery is strong with this one
asciilifeform: 'Assange and Snowden are cold or actively insulting and hostile to real dissidents. For example, Assange grossly insults anyone who does not believe the absurd US gov story about 11 Sep 2001 - which no serious person believes. Assange insults the thousands of architects, engineers, US military and intelligence veterans, who continually describe how the 'official story' is a fraud. '
asciilifeform: 'As they say, 'you cannot make these things up', the Americans are so ridiculously obvious as they conduct criminal deceptions. The CIA's 'Watergate' scheme to destroy Richard Nixon 40 years ago, was so successfully with the fake 'brave reporter' Woodward, that the CIA even decided to use Woodward's junior partner as a fake 'brave reporter' along with Greenwald in 'Operation Fake Dissident Snowden'.'
Vexual: i wrote this next week
thestringpuller: wifi is for people who don't like living in a house akin to Kowloon Walled City
nubbins`: fiber to the door here, i dare the wifi to keep up
nubbins`: i think this was written for USians with slow pipes
asciilifeform: i have a few wifi devices. the radio is definitely the bottleneck.
Vexual: they have optic fibre to the eyeball
nubbins`: because the pipe coming into your house is slower
nubbins`: just some random huffpo article about how yr router is lying to you
nubbins`: who cares what the router speed is if you're going ad-hoc?
asciilifeform: what even was this
nubbins`: in fact, i don't, but i kinda think that's not what the guy meant to say
Vexual: the bettong with the scroll on its ankle is the bottleneck here
asciilifeform: nubbins`: whatever it was, was probably referring to 'ad hoc mode'
nubbins`: you're right, i'd never want to transfer data within my network
nubbins`: "But Wi-Fi hotspots can't deliver wireless connection speeds any faster than the incoming wired connection from your cable or other ISP (Internet service provider); top theoretical AC router speeds are only available in a direct computer-to-computer wireless connections, which you'll never do."
Vexual: dont they tho
nubbins`: ok, reply sent. let's see where this goes.
asciilifeform: 'After making public revelations critical of US policies, former CIA director William Colby was himself found dead in 1996 from a laughably improbable 'canoe accident'. US Congressman Wayne Owens was found dead in Israel in 2002 while investigating US corruption connections.' << 'best news is the history you didn't know' (mircea_popescu?)
asciilifeform: 'The laughable CIA story we are asked to swallow, is that the US regime is doing zero against Omidyar, despite his being the 'owner' of 'tens of thousands' of 'Snowden stolen espionage documents'. When of course if 'Snowden' was not a CIA operation, all American hell would be loose against Omidyar, Greenwald and the rest, targeting their assets and persons on US territory.'
danielpbarron: so like 18k to 50k worth?
Vexual is on the good wine
asciilifeform: nubbins`: where was this ?
asciilifeform: i was half-expecting that my 10 would exhaust the supply
nubbins`: not sure what the guy's sweet spot is
asciilifeform: i wonder how many one could get at the list price
asciilifeform: which type
nubbins`: with them? Are you just wanting to resell them or modify them or something else? Please feel free to make me an offer on a minimum of 1000 units or an offer for all 3000 units if that would interest you. I look forward to hearing from you soon!
nubbins`: Hello. Thanks for your email. We were selling these consistently at $30-$35. The price seems to fluctuate on these overtime.I know that many people are modifying them for other things so I know there is a very strong market for them. We have about 3000 of these left at this point.I would be willing to sell a minimum of 1000 units but would be more interested in selling all 3000 that I have left. Can you tell me what you're wanting to do
asciilifeform: it's only a 'struggle' if they're both still moving.
asciilifeform: though 'war' is very much the wrong term, just as 'fight' is not a correct word for what happens between the corresponding two types of kid in the playground
assbot: Logged on 06-03-2015 00:52:42; mircea_popescu: if you decide to fuck whomint, where the fuck is harry poter fanfic boy going to find money to pay for his groceries ?
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-03-2015#1043648 << thread where mircea_popescu illuminates the war between cia and nsa ☝︎
asciilifeform: and if 'the real snowden' ever stood up to refute the 'fake' - i never heard of such.
nubbins`: i missed it, but his "how to use tor" video was painful
asciilifeform: was i the only one here who actually read (for a time) mr s's (purported) www output (e.g., 'twitter', etc) ?
asciilifeform: 'The CIA-Snowden fraud was, to a degree, a semi-brilliant scam, even though it is now falling apart. On the surface, it seems anyone talking about these awful NSA activities 'must be genuine' - Few people considered what else Snowden was saying. When he moves out of an extremely narrow channel of CIA-scripted 'NSA revelations', Snowden's agenda is to be a slimy, sleazy salesman...'
nubbins`: PROTIP to self: put tftp /after/ mmc in boot order next time
nubbins`: nod, the ".ub" confused as the gunzip'd file had no ext
nubbins`: consider the above q modified to make sense

Vexual: hmm, that sounds like something i might have said
asciilifeform: Vexual: i also did not see the latest gas vortex on jupiter.
Vexual: you see the latest hip hop moving to spotify only
asciilifeform: https://www.indymedia.nl/en/2011/07/77181.shtml << more or less the only other mention i was able to find of him.
asciilifeform: seems like somebody worked overtime to replace most of these with a set of 'benign' 'he's a nutter' results
asciilifeform: fella linked to a page full of 'removed' instead of search results, for his name
asciilifeform: but the notification itself was removed.
Vexual: lol thats how i find content
asciilifeform: 'In response to a legal request submitted to Google, we have removed 1 result(s) from this page.'
asciilifeform: anyway this should be enough lure for everybody. mega-lulzy tirade. if chumpatronic, it is of top quality and i take off my hat to the chumpatronicist.
asciilifeform: 'The two richest men in America, my Harvard classmate Bill Gates whom I met as a boy, and Warren Buffett, were both quite threatened when they were acting too independently of America's ruling consensus. Legal action - by America's bribed, extorted judges and regulators - menaced them both. As each backed down and became more submissive to US policies, the threatened legal and regulatory actions against them evaporated.'
asciilifeform: ity. The central role of the US judge-lawyer mafia, is the reason over 1 million Americans have become lawyers in what is the developed world's most abusive, corrupt legal system. Though many American lawyers are now unemployed or low-income, they often became lawyers in the first place, because they hoped for at least a junior role in the US courtroom mafia, with a licence to steal the wealth of others.'
asciilifeform: 'The American cult of judicial corruption - central tool of America's 'Deep State' government mafia - is not well known, because experts on it - like myself - are 'erased' from internet searches, with US judges directly 'ordering' Google to censor evidence and journalism about their crimes. The world is instead deceived and fooled by the image of US courts in Hollywood movies and on Google search results - hiding the grim real
asciilifeform: many other stimulating tidbits.
asciilifeform: 'Carmen Ortiz is reminded that two other female prosecutors, Thelma Colbert and Shannon Ross, were both found dead after opposing Bush family interests. Ortiz is asked if she would like to be the 3rd dead female prosecutor.'
asciilifeform: 'Advance CIA side of old CIA-NSA territory dispute in US government, in favour of CIA more traditionally allied with US wealthy ruling families; achieving goal of limiting NSA powers, which had become felt as a general threat (blackmail) and even financial threat (insider trading) to US leading families.'
asciilifeform: 'Helping identify and destroy genuine US / UK / Nato leakers, duping them into trusting fake 'brave reporters' for Snowden (CIA-backed Greenwald, Guardian, NYT), then these media help CIA to silence, destroy, extort, kill any real whistleblowers - leakers - dissidents.'
asciilifeform: 'CIA-Wikipedia ("Every dumbf-ck in the world believes Wikipedia") - artificially pumped by CIA Google to top of search results, a 'Trojan horse' for inserting CIA lies and rubbish - see the EU police report on Wikipedia fundraising fraud...'
asciilifeform: 'NSA 'revelations' of liar-poseur Snowden, were chosen because (a) not really new (b) superficially fascinating, adding lustre to CIA media (c) mass-media exposure does not inhibit surveillance, and adds terror to those aware of it, adding to CIA-NSA success...'
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu << http://homment.com/3K3xdsYD7a << reads like nuttery at first, but all of the factual claims as far as i could verify are - factual... if you can't bring yourself to grind it, have someone do it

jurov: well, if mpex isn't now structurally able to issue information like "BalanceChange":[{"Date:": "blabla","MPSIC": "X.EUR", "Change": "-100", "Reason" :"Future expiration"}]
mike_c: part of the reason there are rough edges is that there are a lot of different products on mpex
mike_c: x.eur hasn't been around that long. if it sticks around long enough, i'm sure it will work better.
mike_c: this is part of the reason though too. products come and go, with different features.
jurov: and dunno if you remember, there were daily interest payments in the beginning. without stat mention and at random times
jurov: except for x.eur balances vanishing in the middle of month (at least it's at known time) and reappearing any time later
mike_c: but actually i thought we got that fixed
