mircea_popescu idk 6 hours of week for church and spankings if you talked or moved too much for not being able to sit still for 2 hours << that part's great. stfu and sit put. [00:00]
bagels7 undata: I'm a victim, I don't have a victim mentality. there is a difference. I did not have the slighest victi mentality from age 4 to age 22 concerning my mom leaving me [00:00]
jurov mircea_popescu: how it can be divided from politics? "yeah they're utterly brainwashed zealots, but otherwise i like their political views"??? [00:00]
mircea_popescu jurov my position is, "their enemies which i don't particularly care for claim they be evil, but otherwise also got beat to shit". this i can go for. [00:01]
undata bagels7: touchy subject I'm sure; it'd take nuance to get my point about it across [00:01]
mircea_popescu jurov are you reading arabic reports anyway ? [00:01]
undata every human shoves along every other human as he/she can; religion's not a special case of that [00:02]
jurov not reading [00:02]
mircea_popescu because if you're reading the guardian&co, what you see there is coming out of the same sifon that yields the "putin is insane" spritz. [00:02]
jurov he isn't insane.i'm merely concerned his doings might get me killed [00:03]
bagels7 i worked harder than anyone in my class and people would just say im smart so its easy for me and not a bid deal. I was learning japanese because I wanted to go to japan. but my cousin decided to go 5 years later on a whim because well she had suport for every step in her life where as me her mom and my dad held me back. Im just not planning on curing ebola or anything anytime soon. [00:03]
bagels7 Can't I just make an honest living [00:03]
chetty we need правда [00:03]
mircea_popescu jurov so if that's your concern oyu gotta move. [00:04]
bagels7 jehovah witnesses are child abusers and well I'm going to do something about it! [00:05]
bagels7 maybe have a sunday protest [00:05]
undata that's sure to raise awareness [00:05]
asciilifeform bagels7: Can't I just make an honest living << at what? [00:06]

mircea_popescu bagels7 the best advice for you is to a) create a list of 100 classical texts written before 1800 ; b) spend two weeks reading NOTHING online but that. not anything. not a single page of popurls or whatever. none. [00:06]
mircea_popescu then you'll be in a better position to appreciate the inanity currently rotting your brain away. [00:06]
jurov i will probably move if it keeps progressing... what was the argument? [00:07]
undata mircea_popescu: such a reading list would be a welcome post [00:07]
mircea_popescu jurov you didn't like my position on isis and i was trying to articulate it. [00:07]
mircea_popescu (your dislike i mean) [00:07]
asciilifeform jurov: wait wat!? isis has come to your town ? [00:07]
jurov noo, mircea is pulling putin into the discussion [00:07]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform i said "because if you're reading the guardian&co, what you see there is coming out of the same sifon that yields the "putin is insane" spritz." [00:08]
jurov i think what i think because i'm watching RT, too. [00:08]
undata jurov: where are you? [00:09]
mircea_popescu right, which is how you know he's just realpolitiking all over nuland's face, ass and tits. [00:09]
jurov if isis becomes concern, then i may consider their propaganda, too [00:09]
jurov undata: slovakia [00:09]
mircea_popescu so far their ideology pretty much reduces to "anything us is evil" as best i can tell. [00:10]
mircea_popescu this is not necessarily a bankrupt approach, arguably even better fitted than "everything us is good" [00:10]
mircea_popescu which is in and of itself the saddest indictment one can ever hear about any state. [00:11]
jurov i also heard there's an approach somewhere "mircea_popescu is evil" [00:11]
mircea_popescu imagine, random chance a better bet. that's the fucking antithesis of statality. [00:11]
mircea_popescu im sure there is. [00:11]
* darlidada_m is now known as darlidada [00:13]
bagels7 yeah my boyfriend saw trilema and was like "that guy is a terrorist" just from the look [00:14]
undata oh dear [00:14]
mircea_popescu o.O [00:14]
bagels7 does the US "governemnt" kill more inocent people than isis [00:14]
mircea_popescu depends on your definition of innocent. [00:14]
undata jurov: do you think he's after more than just involving ukraine in a permanent border dispute to foul potential nato membership? [00:14]
bagels7 innocent as in collateral damage [00:15]
* omen1855 has quit (Ping timeout: 272 seconds) [00:15]
mircea_popescu undata the seaports is the problem. [00:15]
jurov undata: there's parallels to sudetenland annexion and numerous other historical precedents.. it's very unlikely putin just stops there. [00:15]
mircea_popescu look at it from moscow's pov. 1) the us builds a large base at constanta, once europe's largest port by tdw, and mere miles from the russian bases at sevastopol [00:16]

jurov transnistria, maybe [00:17]
mircea_popescu or else, a landbridge to serbia via bulgaria ? [00:17]
mircea_popescu nobody fucking wants transnistria gtfo. [00:17]
mircea_popescu it's like wanting somaliland. [00:17]
BingoBoingo Eh, Putin just needs to cozy up to Cuba [00:17]
mircea_popescu BingoBoingo it's interdictable. [00:18]
mircea_popescu what any large power needs are land connections to ports all around. [00:18]
jurov ok, so you say he just makes land bridge to crimea and then everything stops. [00:18]
mircea_popescu i don't see why he'd care about anything but sevastopol, myself. [00:18]
asciilifeform roach extermination will not stop (unless usg somehow rids itself of mr p) [00:18]
BingoBoingo Sure, but if Obola can have Costana, Putin can have a naval base just outside of Guantanamo [00:18]
mircea_popescu i doubt he wants it. [00:19]
mircea_popescu the russkis understand bases are expensive. [00:19]

asciilifeform usg/nato to ru: 'stop running your nose into my fist!' [00:21]
mircea_popescu how do you figure that one !? [00:21]
asciilifeform 1) create fictional countries carved out of opponent's meat 2) prattle on about 'democracy' and 'legitimacy' 3) ??? 4) profit [00:22]
jurov since when this area is ussr's meat? [00:22]
asciilifeform jurov: since europe tried to 'grab its gun' in '41 and failed. [00:23]
mircea_popescu seems tenuous. [00:23]
mircea_popescu if anything, ukraine is part of poland. [00:23]
mircea_popescu well, whatever, southern parts romania, but lettuce not quibble :D [00:24]

assbot Logged on 15-06-2014 02:28:38; asciilifeform: 'the Western blok... preferred to view the Eastern European nations as victims of Soviet aggression, ignoring the simple and manly fact (that would have been instantly understood by a Roman) that Soviet legions, without anyone's help, took possession of Eastern Europe via force of arms, answering aggression with aggression. And the Roman would an absurdity - he could not comprehend, in [00:25]
assbot Logged on 15-06-2014 02:28:38; asciilifeform: moral justice the legions ought to forsake the lands for which they had paid with their blood. Not only is the transference of conceptions of morality to the evaluation of historical events a phony method, but, if we recall, the moralists - the defeated European nations and the Americans, enemies of the USSR - that is to say, non-impartial moralists - their condemnations sound hollow i [00:25]
assbot Logged on 15-06-2014 02:28:38; asciilifeform: of course, unphased by this. We know now that their strategy of psychological war turned out to be a correct one... To establish the injustice, the 'meanness' of the enemy in a moralistic war is every bit as important as winning a pitched battle in a hot war.' [00:25]

jurov in fact, staling could push to vienna in 1944 [00:27]
jurov using areas liberated by slovak nationa uprising [00:27]
asciilifeform mail corrections to herr limonov. the basic point stands - ru owned these folks every bit as 'legitimately' as rome owned anything. and then it walked out because its brain was under the control of alien pederasts. whose tendrils are being ejected, slowly but surely. [00:27]
jurov but they preferred to shoot themselves in the foot [00:27]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform was aurelian under control of alien pederasts ? [00:27]
jurov it was actually under control of the pederasts *between 1918-198x* [00:28]

mircea_popescu anyway, the q i want answered asciilifeform is re aurelian! [00:32]

mircea_popescu ya srsly. [00:36]
mircea_popescu jurov well that's then a narrow view you're more than welcome to [00:37]
mircea_popescu but should perhaps preface the general statement with a clue. "as far as everything's eugenics, then gulags are eugenics" [00:37]

ben_vulpes "requires you to get health coverage by the end of the open enrollment period on February 15. If you don’t, this year you’ll have to pay a penalty of $325 per adult or 2 percent of your household income -- whichever is higher." << death of self insurance in the usg [00:40]
mircea_popescu orly, 325 or 2% whichever is higher ?! [00:40]
jurov ahhh, isee. no homosexuals were not prevented from procreation by "science of people" [00:40]
ben_vulpes "give us (healthcare mafia) your money, or else - give us (ordinary communist mafia) your money" [00:40]
mircea_popescu jurov no the criteria you enounciated. [00:40]

jurov okay my other criterion was that eugenics victims are barred from procreation by "science" [00:41]
mircea_popescu not feminists, they got thick scales over all that fat. [00:41]
jurov and since soviet govt boasted about being "governed by science" here we are [00:42]
asciilifeform what 20th c. mega-empire didn't boast of 'science'? it's nearly obligatory, like the christianity of european kings [00:42]
mircea_popescu ^ [00:43]
ben_vulpes nevermind that 325/mo doesn't buy *shit* insurance here. [00:43]
mircea_popescu exactly the right simile there. [00:43]
mircea_popescu ben_vulpes so laughable, most of the world lives on less than that. [00:43]
mircea_popescu in the us tho, you can't even buy insurance [00:43]
mircea_popescu us must be fucking dangerous ? [00:43]
jborkl well, health insurance for 2 adults and 2 kids is more than my house payment [00:44]
jurov i did not mean to pull words. in short, ussr killed so many own people so that ended up with shrinking population [00:44]
jurov and i don't see how atomic bomb or other achievements can fix that [00:44]
asciilifeform jurov: maximizing meat now? [00:45]
jurov ? [00:45]
undata asciilifeform: at what point would you consider that waste? [00:45]
asciilifeform jurov: what, exactly, do we need exponentially growing meat mass for ? [00:45]
cazalla bagels7: I'm still rovering from the jehovah witness's and religious brainwashing <<< holy shit, i'm not the only one to suffer this in #b-a [00:46]
mircea_popescu apparently we attract you cultish lot! [00:47]
jurov where did i say exponentially growing? i said shrinking [00:47]

undata might be for me, maybe not for you [00:51]
bagels7 there are 1000s of jehovah witness stories like our, endless pages of forums [00:51]
cazalla bagels7, so you're no longer in the truth eh, i must tell you that #b-a is rather worldly [00:51]
undata I'm going to be spending a lot of the business income on moar business for a good while [00:52]
asciilifeform jurov: meat tends to trim self if left to own devices. spitting on gulag while cheering, say, czar's famines, is like the folks who 'love small business and despise megacorps' here in usa. poorly thought out logic. [00:52]
bagels7 cazalla: I decided to stop going when i was 15 but then my aunt played her protestant brainwashing guilt trip shit on me [00:52]
jurov i'm cheering czar's famines? TIL [00:53]
bagels7 my aunt who i was living with who decided i could trust her like a mother, i felt more betrayed by her than my bio mother [00:53]
jurov long live the romanovs!!!1 [00:53]
asciilifeform this always bugged me. somehow folks think that starving to death under czar was like dying of co poisoning in a mercedes to the tune of classical music, but starving in ussr is starving in a dumpster with broken glass. [00:54]
jurov i was facetions this time [00:54]
jurov *facetious [00:55]
undata couldn't we like... you know... not starve... man? [00:55]
jurov imo both these famines were incredibly wasteful, as there's plenty of arable land [00:55]
undata at least this seems like a weird focus [00:55]

jurov basically, as if aliens came and prevented peasants to cultivate it, because atomic bomb was more important [00:56]
asciilifeform detectably plenty of starvation in ancient world, even with 'sound money' and good management [00:57]
bagels7 they didnt have tchonology like today? [00:57]
jurov afaik it was *not* plant starvation in ussr [00:57]
undata asciilifeform: what about when you let that run for a while [00:58]
asciilifeform mass upheavals plus labour-intensive agriculture -> famine, generally [00:59]
undata sure maybe starvation at first, but why the belief that it will always be there? [00:59]
jurov all i can say, my parents and grandparents watched all this from some hundred miles away and considered it unbelievable [00:59]
asciilifeform undata: in the general, 'malthusian' case - where could it possibly go? [00:59]
jurov and it was *after* mechanized agriculture was available [01:00]
undata asciilifeform: there are innumerable things I could do in the present moment that I don't because they don't seem sensible [01:00]

undata jurov: my folks grow enough to have everything they need, and the food they produce is delicious [01:01]
asciilifeform jurov: tank is a particular type of tractor, let's say. it cultivates sovereignty (or did, in the age of the tank, but why nitpick) rather than edibles. [01:01]
jurov and there was no such famine in eastern eutope outside russia inn 20th century [01:01]
jurov *europe [01:01]
asciilifeform without sovereignty, 'your' tractor - isn't yours. it belongs (along with your starfish) to the big boys. [01:02]
jurov but i see you insist... no help here [01:02]
jurov germans made tanks too, and did not even had so much arable soil.. no famines there, too [01:04]
undata asciilifeform: that a sovereign can do whatever he pleases doesn't necessarily proceed to "therefore he stole all my things and left me in mud" [01:04]
undata this comes up a lot in here; why does that follow? [01:04]
undata that was my "masturbation implement" rant [01:04]
jurov asciilifeform just keeps coming with excuses why his drunkard compatriots can't fend for thmeselves so well [01:04]

jurov i don't see slaughtering own people in such idiotic manner could be better outcome [01:14]
jurov if you do, how so? [01:14]
asciilifeform undata: basic mechanics here. peasants do not actually need the city-dwellers for anything (at least at the ru circa 1917 tech level.) why should they feed them, if asked nicely? and why would they wish to move to the city and waste away in factories, merely if asked nicely? [01:14]
mircea_popescu jurov well, his argument was that from plow to nuke. [01:14]

asciilifeform ultimately, being a builder of industry at the 1917 (or even today's) tech level, fundamentally sucks. as in, the same way being in prison sucks. so stalin et. al. tried experiment: what if being a peasant sucked -more- ? and - it worked. [01:15]
jurov US did do without gulags. until recently [01:16]

Vexual they made some good moves [08:55]
Vexual but theres still this interface between the bitcoin pace and the asx or whatever [08:57]
Vexual Yo can watch tmz and dcc, and that melbourne thing that never floated [08:58]

Vexual he might just ask nicely [09:04]
cazalla nah, new owner will prob want a pay day [09:05]
Vexual he might just get it [09:08]
Vexual i don't think zt needs it tho [09:08]
Vexual leaving 36k on the table might be a thing [09:10]
cazalla well, he bought it for digital BTC, so technically the company owns it, or did, not him [09:10]
cazalla so now he has to go to shareholders and tell them, at least i assume so [09:10]
Vexual yeah, ive read the annual [09:11]
* stormlight has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [09:12]
Vexual it's obviously an oversight [09:12]
cazalla on his part yes but common way to get domains in .au [09:13]
cazalla auDA won't force new owner to return simply because of a mistake [09:13]
Vexual dog businnes [09:13]
Vexual but if you're not using it... eh [09:14]
cazalla few times people have taken it outside of auDA and to court though, ZT could do that or simply buy it back which i bet is likely to happen [09:14]
Vexual well h ecould verily claim he is bitcoin.com.au [09:14]
cazalla Vexual, perhaps new owner just uses it for email, there is no criteria stating he has to have a webpage [09:14]
Vexual im sure it will all sort out in the wash [09:15]
cazalla can claim, must prove [09:15]

-assbot- Welcome to #bitcoin-assets. To get voice (ie, to be able to speak), first identify with gribble and then send "!up" to assbot in a private message. If you do not have a WoT account, try politely asking one of the voiced people for a temporary pass. [21:44]

mircea_popescu We present an efficient method to deanonymize Bitcoin users, which allows to link user pseudonyms to the IP addresses where the transactions are generated. Our techniques work for the most common and the most challenging scenario when users are behind NATs or firewalls of their ISPs. They allow to link transactions of a user behind a NAT and to distinguish connections and transactions of different users behind the same [21:53]
mircea_popescu NAT. We also show that a natural countermeasure of using Tor or other anonymity services can be cut-off by abusing anti-DoS countermeasures of the bitcoin network. Our attacks require only a few machines and have been experimentally verified. We propose several countermeasures to mitigate these new attacks. [21:53]
mircea_popescu anyone bother actually read the pdf accompanying these tall claims ? [21:53]
cazalla fluffypony, the new male lead is no ian malcolm either [21:54]

cazalla BingoBoingo, hopefully it gets more traction in aus IT press, they love stuff stories like this [21:56]
mircea_popescu "a method for revealing IP addresses of Bitcoin wallet owners with success rate between 11\% and 60\%." ugh. my interest died. [21:56]
* assbot removes voice from diametric [21:56]
BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: My take on it is if you connect to enough nodes, you can probably tell which one prodcasted a transaction first, sometimes. [21:58]
mircea_popescu so ? [21:58]
BingoBoingo Amazing the rather abvious shit people pass off as "research" [21:59]
assbot AMAZING COMPANY! [21:59]
mircea_popescu let me guess, 11 to 60% of times, where 40% is arbitrarily defined as equal to "those cases where users use private connect lists" [21:59]
