mircea_popescu: basically gavin just came up with a way to take over control of people's wallets.

mircea_popescu: this'd be the point of no return for him. the bitcoin project is officially hijacked.

mircea_popescu: guy's much too polite about it.

mircea_popescu: Namworld yes

mircea_popescu: it's a fucking outrage.

mircea_popescu: we're no longer friends.

mircea_popescu: all shit starts as "completely optional"

mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2013/and-gavin-moves-on-to-the-dark-side-the-bitcoin-project-is-officially-hijacked/

mircea_popescu: <benkay> because Gavin had an idea << it wasn't his idea.

mircea_popescu: you could.

mircea_popescu: the issue is that the people claiming to be the bitcoin developers are hostile to bitcoin

mircea_popescu: that's what hijack means.

mircea_popescu: when a project is led by people who aim at its demise rather than its success.

mircea_popescu: it changes nothing objective. it just shows who gavin was.

mircea_popescu: but you're not required to be concerned obviously.

mircea_popescu: think for a moment. he's already demonstrated the ability to create a hard fork, and the ability to pick the winning side IN SPITE of anything.

mircea_popescu: put one and one together rather than being lazy and "it doesn't concern me".

mircea_popescu: yes yes, i get it, you're not interested in bitcoin, you're interested in making a buck.

mircea_popescu: i get that, it's fine, but don't expect me to be able to explain to you what the problem is

mircea_popescu: there's no problem with you making a buck coming out of this.

mircea_popescu: Namworld okay, so you care about the protocol. the entire contention here is that this showsa to me who/what gavin was.

mircea_popescu: and he goes to a lot of effort to make it something we'd regret.

mircea_popescu: "And one of the interesting things that we don’t talk about enough is the contrast between what’s happened in the United States and what’s happened in a lot of other developing countries, Europe in particular."

mircea_popescu: obama, always such a master of cluelessness.

mircea_popescu: pankkake in obama's fantasy world, europe is a developing country, that's lagging behind the us.

mircea_popescu: romania's isarescu is currently forced to sell the local currency every single fucking session

mircea_popescu: just to keep it from appreciating into the stratosphere.

mircea_popescu: it'd prolly be at parity by now.

mircea_popescu: and so rcb prints leis, sells them for dollars, takes the dollars and burns them or buries them som,ewhere or w/e you do with toilet paper.

mircea_popescu: perpetuum mobile.

mircea_popescu: each fucking week with this for a year straight

mircea_popescu: closer to two by now.

mircea_popescu: "hi

mircea_popescu: after alot of thought and consideration i am offering unquoted shares in new business the shares will consist of"

mircea_popescu: so much win.

mircea_popescu: kidkrypto mommentum trading on such flimsy a platform as btc is a way to get hurt.

mircea_popescu: makes sense.

mircea_popescu: anyway : it may continue for a little, the average ponzi lasts over half a year.

mircea_popescu: !t btctc activemining

mircea_popescu: from 38 to 64 on the basis of what again ?

mircea_popescu: it's not actually hashing or anything, or is it ?

mircea_popescu: kidkrypto summarize for me ?

mircea_popescu: VanCleef i think it was done already

mircea_popescu: the bitbillions guy or w/e

mircea_popescu: kidkrypto sure.

mircea_popescu: Namworld maybe have it listed on btct/bf/etc without ever putting any shares up for sale

mircea_popescu: so nobody can sell anything. see what the bids do

mircea_popescu: shadow mining ? SM

mircea_popescu: Amethyst (AM)

mircea_popescu: fucking mysterious etc.

mircea_popescu: this will end up in the history books.

mircea_popescu: first 100 investors get a free complementary amethyst or w/e

mircea_popescu: no, no. get a chance to participate in a draw for a GRANDIOSE AMETHYST

mircea_popescu: Namworld all you need is votes right /

mircea_popescu: what is it, 8 btc ?

mircea_popescu: o, cheaper than glbse even.

mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves um no ?

mircea_popescu: yes mpex fee is 0.2% of sell side on all txn

mircea_popescu: not particularly related to ipoing tho

mircea_popescu: Namworld probably best with quantum computers.

mircea_popescu: some engineer should explain how they're blowing all the asic market

mircea_popescu: by designing quantum miners.

mircea_popescu: no nio

mircea_popescu: he should announce that he's going to make announcements

mircea_popescu: abotu announcements.

mircea_popescu: also make a bunch of socks.

mircea_popescu: VanCleef what's bithub ?

mircea_popescu: !topic

mircea_popescu: hm

mircea_popescu: ah mjoiii it's /topic

mircea_popescu: mjoiii go aherad

mircea_popescu: ah. well... the thought process was basically, "ok this thing rocks. what does it lack?"

mircea_popescu: it was quickly apparent it lacks some financial expertise.

mircea_popescu: is this the rl mining venture ?

mircea_popescu: :p

mircea_popescu: well here's the thing : most mining ventures are scams anyway

mircea_popescu: they pretty much have a special section i nthe pink sheets

mircea_popescu: something like that.

mircea_popescu: most governments with resouirces tolerate it because well... it's damned hard to maintain presence in far flung places where mining goes on

mircea_popescu: yes or wilderness of canada etc

mircea_popescu: rather than spend more taxpayer funds to provide freebies for the sort of people willin to live in the sticks out there,

mircea_popescu: cheaper to just not spend taxpayer funds on hassling them

mircea_popescu: dilbert's unending quest to cling to relevance

mircea_popescu: going on what, 30 years by now ?

mircea_popescu: ;;ident jurov

mircea_popescu: hey wd.

mircea_popescu: lmao

mircea_popescu: so go make somer

mircea_popescu: yeah, it's a tough thing to balance.

mircea_popescu: by count ? by volume ?

mircea_popescu: pretty cool.

mircea_popescu: lmao

mircea_popescu: i wonder if teh us ppl even know what a fascist state is.

mircea_popescu: 7. Against individualism, the Fascist conception is for the State; and it is for the individual in so far as he coincides with the State, which is the conscience and universal will of man in his historical existence. It is opposed to classical Liberalism, which arose from the necessity of reacting against absolutism, and which brought its historical purpose to an end when the State was transformed into the conscience a

mircea_popescu: nd will of the people. Liberalism denied the State in the interests of the particular individual; Fascism reaffirms the State as the true reality of the individual. And if liberty is to be the attribute of the real man, and not of that abstract puppet envisaged by individualistic Liberalism, Fascism is for liberty. And for the only liberty which can be a real thing, the liberty of the State and of the individual within

mircea_popescu: the State. Therefore, for the Fascist, everything is in the State, and nothing human or spiritual exists, much less has value,-outside the State. In this sense Fascism is totalitarian, and the Fascist State, the synthesis and unity of all values, interprets, develops and gives strength to the whole life of the people.

mircea_popescu: do you think there;'s any population more uniform than the us folk ?

mircea_popescu: same could have been said of the pope cca 1920

mircea_popescu: nevertheless, the lateran agreement

mircea_popescu: this isn;'t actually true.

mircea_popescu: the pope did plenty

mircea_popescu: jurov you know, the similarities are striking.

mircea_popescu: pre mussolini italy was a mess of local priviledge,

mircea_popescu: the union had barely been instituted.

mircea_popescu: it doesn't take much to PASS FOR a strong leader.

mircea_popescu: any drunken corporal can do the job. it's a matter of perception not of essence.

mircea_popescu: similar to being "the most beautiful girl". it's not something that's hard to do, every group has one.

mircea_popescu: no argument there. very messy indeed.

mircea_popescu: the contention is that it;'s unavoidable by now, not that it won't be messy.

mircea_popescu: well, inasmuch as it meets the definition it can be so labeled.

mircea_popescu: everything in the state and nothing outside the state = fascism.

mircea_popescu: pankkake it's like weeds, the stupidology of the left.

mircea_popescu: perennial, universal, everywhere.
