the back over having "Conquered"
the strongpoints of yesteryear, meanwhile abandoned.
mircea_popescu: i don't personally expect anything further from linux. in
this sense, he's retired already.
BingoBoingo: Maybe Linus's ace in

mircea_popescu: if you don't know how
to apply pressure, don't have an avenue
to voice your concerns,
that means
that your concerns aren't worth shit. go die or whatever it is losers do.

BingoBoingo: Well, since
the 1800's Krupp has done a lot
to improve steel strengths and specializations...
mircea_popescu: steel was used for
the x part in
the xbow before it was abundant enough
to go into swords.
mircea_popescu: bows are almost limited by materials, but not really, still mostly
the archer. crossbows however, it's all

mircea_popescu: IF you don't leverage

assbot: Logged on 11-03-2015 00:34:58; asciilifeform: my understanding is
that in usa, war machines
that do not use pyrotechnic effects are not considered 'arms' and are not regulated at
the national level

the $2 wallow
mircea_popescu: welcome
to late 2012 early 2013, i imagine a btc/usd run-up is coming ?
mircea_popescu: anyway. so

the "core developers" of a meanwhile obsoleted branch of bitcoin core.
assbot: Logged on 10-03-2015 18:16:24; kakobrekla: ascii_field not missing, 'betmoose' is right

mircea_popescu: "i'm going
to pretend like if i find five people
that can be bribed, scared or fooled
then

that was needed

the usg is so ridiculous,
toothless and impotent I CANT EVEN SAY WHO
THE FUCK
THE FIVE WILL BE. hopefully we even find five idiots, or else... whatever,
three's enough. one's me, one's me dressed as satoshi, one's me in my wife's panties. win!"

thestringpuller: "I’m actually, right now, working on just getting consensus among
the five, what I call, core developers —
the five developers who have push access
to
the git code. I

BingoBoingo: I mean
the Germans did win
the propaganda war.
mircea_popescu: which

the freedom
to
threaten is not merely my fundamental, unassailable sovereign property, but moreover essential for
the construction of effectual instruments
to squash
the socialists and
their golums.
assbot: Logged on 30-01-2015 05:49:56; mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: if you were planning
