Maryjane: Most hobbyists I know here cannot keep up with keeping
the bees
tho
decimation: the bees are worth
their wage when
they pollinate more efficiently
than
the alternatives
decimation: mircea_popescu: I suspect
that any farmer who actually plans on living on his own harvest is much
the same
Maryjane: Bees are extremely expensive both money and
time wise
Maryjane: Almond expenses go
to ppl like me
too
decimation: yeah but almonds are delicious, I'm glad for
the bees.
Maryjane: Almond Honey
tastes like leather shoes
decimation: Maryjane: in California for
the almonds?
cazalla: i could host
the hive elsewhere but defeats
the added benefit of having
the bees in
the backyard
to help pollinate veg and fruit
trees
mircea_popescu: back in romania, pretty much any old guy
that's not a fucktard keeps bees
decimation: cazalla:
the People continue
to wage war on anything unusual
cazalla: mircea_popescu, you need
to register for a licence, another keep has
to come check out your hive, hive cannot be within x distance of other homes plus others
decimation: Maryjane: do you move your hives long distances
to pollinate?
Maryjane: We lost some due
to wax moth damage
Maryjane: 7000 lbs
this yr but I worked commercially
cazalla: i wanted
to get into bees
this spring but council regs won't permit it :\
Maryjane: Any man made pesticide will weaken
their immune system but plant based is ok
decimation: cell phone radiation just doesn't affect
things
that much
decimation: eh, I
think
that
theory is crazy. much more likely is widespread pesticide us
xanthyos: do you
think it's related at all
to cell phone
tower radiation?
Maryjane: We had epic basswood honey
this yr
decimation: the russian sage in front of my home was filled with bees
this summer,
they are gone now
Maryjane: They aren't
too bothered by varroa
Maryjane: Their immune system is stronger against varroa
than carnolians
decimation: do
the russian bees seem more resistant
to
the mites? It appears
the gov't
thinks
that's
the case.
Maryjane: We
treat with powdered sugar
to help
that issue
Maryjane: Carnolians are great
they originated in like
the southern Austrian alps and Danube valley
Maryjane: They made a new queen and she calmed
the whole colony
decimation: interesting. apparently
the bees are are aware of
the 'one drop' rule
Maryjane: Yes.
They could. But
that could go either good or bad
xanthyos: and make
the perfect broodwich
decimation: I suspect
the best 'solution' is
to interbreed
the africanized bees with other species and select against aggressive broods.
Maryjane: Italians and carni's are what we raise here usually, but bees even African iced are highly adapted creatures.
The African iced ones are forced into a place
they don't
thrive. It's like how
the Russian bees don't do well here either
decimation: seems
to me
that
the main danger is letting neglected properties become fully infested
decimation: what do you make of
the panic with respect
to
the africanized bees coming from
the south?
Maryjane: It's wintering season atm
though
decimation: asciilifeform: amusing story.
the moral: once a wasp - always a wasp until death or
total victory
decimation: " For example, in America, observed de
Tocqueville, a book
that does not make money – because it does not sell well – cannot be good, because
the
test of all goodness is money. And anything
that makes a profit must be admirable in every way. I"
BingoBoingo: Using
the ponzi label when advertising a Ponzi anytime after
the historical ponzi's bust... fine. Advertizing ponzi under any other brand like Pirateat40, not fine.
BingoBoingo: With
the caveat
that you only advertise for Satan under his own brand.
BingoBoingo: Safer
to make ads for satan. Recognizable brand. Customers know what
they get when
the Buy Satan.
danielpbarron: in one of
their recent radio broadcasts,
they practically
told listeners
to buy bitcoin from one of
their advertisers in order
to pay for drugs on
the silkroad
cazalla: they don't get it, i'm not claiming
they ran
the ponzi but assisted it and like andreas,
they don't accept
their foolish behaviour so it will happen again
cazalla: i don't know how
they could create an advertisement like
that without at all being suspicious

mircea_popescu: thestringpuller you had been ipbanned. i fixt it now. check
tor

then well... it's not all
that
tor-y
mircea_popescu: <mike_c> i don't understand. what's
the fun of all
the ddos if you're not going
to come in here and
taunt? << i was doing
the
taunting. saturated mkt.
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform>
the basic fact is, unless you have
the infrastructure for reprocessing hot fiat into purified chumpatronium, botnet is not of particularly much use
today. <<
that's
the beauty of nature
tho! instead of making it secure,
they decided
to "stop criminality" by making criminal-cash worthless. inasmuch as
they've rpetty much succeeded...
they also made
their own cash worthless.

mike_c: i don't understand. what's
the fun of all
the ddos if you're not going
to come in here and
taunt?
decimation: trying
to live off six figures of botnet-bezzled fiat
decimation: one imagines King Louis joining
the paris mobs
decimation: asciilifeform: what I find amusing is
that obama was complaining about credit card fraud while he (or at least,
the people over which he nominally presides) are chiefly responsible
TheNewDeal: I've been using
them pretty much
the last 12 hours with no issues. Must have just started
decimation: "with paper money he could buy a lot of
the deeds needed
to back up
the words. With paper money he could persuade
the Sirian foe
to kick himself good and hard in
the pants and save
the
Terrans a
tedious chore"
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: How do you
thing NSA/FBI does
their DDOs?
They pirate legit ru/cn/Ohio botnets
mircea_popescu: o it
thought
the
truely elite haxxor works for
the nsa
decimation: the
truely elite hax0r figures out how
to pirate an existing botnet
decimation: asciilifeform: w.r.t.
the 'putty' controller above, I
thought 'modern' malware used generated dns records
to 'phone home'
decimation: it's pretty likely
that someone 'behind'
the victim press sites have something
to do with
the ddos
mircea_popescu: then
take out one by one all
the "press venues"
that failed
to report on my article, while at it.
decimation: cryptolocker's approach is
to force
the victim
to do
the conversion of fiat
to btc, like a mule
mircea_popescu: so now
the moral dilemma of all
time : should i use my list of wordpress installs
to blow wordpress.com off
the internets or shouldn't i.
