the lines in
the process

the same deal as your idiot-'academic'-woman stereotype

their hole, and it's
the best, goddamit
PeterL: Reason does have some good commentors,
they would fit in well here
mircea_popescu: "Remember: anything a prog/leftist/SJW accuses others of doing,
they always are guilty of
themselves. Always. And
that's why
they can't see
the contradiction here. Because
the projection is a defense mechanism.
They can't see
the contradiction without realizing some very nasty
truths about
themselves."
BingoBoingo: Well, you have
to admire
the stunningly poor opsec.
mircea_popescu: who
the fuck else imagines "nobody likes you" is a valid attack lmao
mircea_popescu: That was
the end of
the storyuntil last week, when
The College Fix reported
that Mahmood's off-campus apartment was vandalized.

they changed in full view of

They appear
to be women of unclear ages.
The video footage is available here.

BingoBoingo: At
the
time Artillery was cooler
than fighter Jets ever were, or John McCain's shit eating grin would be on signs as far south as Rio
mircea_popescu: equalitarianism is a pipe dream, whether it calls itself democracy, socialism or anything else. hierarchy is both good and indispensable.
this is factually correct, which means it's practically falsifiable and scientifically approacheable.
mircea_popescu: if you
think about it sculpture is also fantastic waste of marble
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: What was your earlier maybe project
that got supplanted,

think about it
decimation: most of
the modems

to ephemereal sig ?
decimation: well, I guess if you didn't have it, you would have

the emphemeral key? wouldn't a signed blob (however you do
the error coding) be good enough?

this implemented right by sane people

to get
that pci card with
the onboard ocxo working with a slightly custom ntp driver
decimation: I've actually spent some
time reading
the ntp source code
decimation: re: ntp amplification <<
the
thing is, ntp
tends
to run on actual servers people might care about, so
they might respond
to notices
decimation: "He who refuses

talk nonsense"
