dub: you're just starting
to wake up
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform are
these provably intelligent or just assumedly intelligent ?
dub: bgupta:
the real reality is you've been a surveillance state since
the '90s
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder also
true. was just doing a sort of "minimal eval"
Bugpowder: [22:29] <mircea_popescu> created ~300 mn usd worth of bitcoin wealth. SO FAR.
This isn't over yet.
benkay: good lord of course
they're not
mircea_popescu: bgupta why do
the inept and poor matter in
this discussion ?
bgupta: the reality is most citizens aren't
technically adept
to use privacy
tools properly.. nor don't care, and it will be hard for
those
that aren't superrich
to uproot
their families on a (to most citizens) alarmist future view.
mircea_popescu: benkay even so it's safer
to purchase it from a distance.
benkay: and can purchase
their friendship
dub: [19:11] <gavinandresen> sure. We have
to embrace
transaction volume, more people == more success == more
transactions
benkay: cuz if
they reopen instant run
bgupta: Well, I am
thinking
that it could swing
to
the other direction of
totalatarianism.. in
the US we are seeing a steady erosion of our freedoms, as
the surveillance state becomes a reality.
benkay: what are likely outcomes if
the vote in parliament fails?
mircea_popescu: they've changed
the proposed law 3
times so far, still not a law.
benkay: has cyprus gone
through with
the
taxation yet?
mircea_popescu: unless, of course, you imagine
the amish are some sort of separatist state within
the us.
bgupta: You are assuming
that certain states wouldn't just shut down
the public
telco grid
to survive.
mircea_popescu: the original innovation
that even allowed
the state (ie, bureaucracy) has been meanwhile erroded by
the internet.
mircea_popescu: i don't
think so. without a cheap and effective way
to maintain informational supremacy and without control of wealth
transfer
there simply can't be a state.
mircea_popescu: actually bgupta ... any sort of future
that includes
the state is science fiction at
this point.
mircea_popescu: funny. i wonder if
the roman empire had rules about barbarian shaving practices right before odoacer

trade for S.DICE on MPEX was at 0.00383838 BTC [-]
Bugpowder: I need
these diff futures
to close so I can buy
this S.DICE
kakobrekla: in
theory i could but you would be banned now
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla can you set assbot
to autoban on any mention of bitswing.com for an hour ?
dub: effective marketing campain you have
there
dub: like other british colonies
they have a prime minister who fronts one of several political parties, advised by a caucus/cabinet of senior members and
the lowly back benchers
smickles: moosecock it is
then. cheers
to moosecock
dub: 'the queen runs canada' is a fairly common complaint in
the extreme libertard circles is all im saying
smickles: heh, yeah, different
topic entirely
mircea_popescu: helps
them learn about what
they can and can do and so should or shouldn't attempt.
mircea_popescu: it's about people being forcibly confronted with proof of
their inferiority in a social setting,
smickles: but
they apparently do still exercise
the power by quashing laws in england which would deprive
them of land and such
dub: for example its required for hoteliers
to provide horse parking in
the capital of my country
dub: you will find any number of antiquated bylaws in every legal system, shit
thats not worth legistlating over
smickles: lol, dub it's not like i
think she could actually exercise
that power
dub: every
times smickles
trots out some alex jonesism I die a little
smickles: has
to do with
the viceroy or something
mircea_popescu: problem is, it;'s never used, so it just serves as perverse strengthening of
the equalitarian delusion.
smickles: ya know, from what i understand about
the retained prerogitive,
the queen could prevent
the prime minister of canada from
taking office after being elected
smickles: < [\\\]> jesus christ,
they still have nobility <<
they still have nobility who exercise royal prerogitive
mircea_popescu: or at least motherfucking stand up, which is really
the absolute fucking minimum.
mircea_popescu: not like
they have
to go on
their knees when nobility enters
the room
[\\\]: that right
there
tells
them
[\\\]: jesus christ,
they still have nobility
[\\\]: oh right, because I'm in
the UK school system
mircea_popescu: show me a one case past 15 years where a kid was
told "you can't do what
this other kid does because he is better
than you"
[\\\]: and
they're fucking English
[\\\]: I'm pretty certain Britain doesn't
tell everyone
they're equal
to anyone

mircea_popescu: and also i blame
the equalitarian atmosphere in
the english speaking world.
there's no worse form of child abuse
than
telling
them
they're equal
to anyone.
mircea_popescu: for
the past
two years i've been drowning in well meaning idiocy. it's a fate worse
than death.
mircea_popescu: 7500 words expended
to clearly show he doesn't understand what exactly shareholders are, how
they're different from founders and wtf exactly finance is
