Peruvian immigrants > Argentine natives

Whether the immigrants are better than the natives is always a complicated dispute, but whether the immigrants are more politically powerful than the natives almost never is. Some people may disagree with the obvious historical fact that European immigrants were culturally, technologically, socially and humanly superior to the Iroquis natives ; no one will disagree with the equally obvious historical fact that the European settlers butchered the Iroquis natives.i

That the "Mexican" "illegals" are preferredii to the "American" "workers" is incontrovertible fact. That Muslim "terrorists" are preferable (at least by the lights of European women) to the European "men" they are replacing is indisputable. These are all relatively benign situations however, when compared to the situation in Argentina : anyone and everyone, including invertebrates, assorted insects, algal blooms and fungal colonies are by a very wide margin and in all respects preferable to the locals. A strange sort of world leadership, perhaps, but Argentina definitely got it! And with the recent changes in the political spectrum we may perhaps soon see the complete obliteration of the Argentine natives, praise be upon Trompi.

To illustrate this theoretical discussion with colorful anecdote, let's delve into a comparison between the locals and the Peruvians. First, as to the locals :

Above, the local parrots. They're pretty cool.

These are some local flying pigs hanbot found. They are about as real as trabajo en Argentina, or any other noesunpaispobre-isms are.

This was a house. It has been repurposed. By plants.

This is kind-of an interesting mural, colorful and strangely drawn. Apparently made by people from Ecuador.

This is a lengthy, intricate, plaintive piece of idiocy - evidently made by the trabajadores from the haymasfuturo Argentina noesunpaispobre. In its principal lines, it is a bathetic address to idiots (which is why it addresses itself "to familias" rather than "to thinking people" or "to common sense" : it outright wishes to speak to the worst female element in society, the scum that makes stupidity and sloth into virtues and then attempts to survive like any dogvomit - through sheer aggregate mass), complaining to those kindred spirits at the horror of horrors : the incoming administration aims to assess the performance of the education system!

Imagine that! It will be standardized, the same in the whole country! This is evidently wrong considering how 2+5 = 8 in the South and 6 in the North! It is disrespectful to women! It is racist! It is etcetera! How dare people stuck managing a conclave of idiots and imbeciles attempt to measure the situation they find themselves in!

This assessment was not designed, nor will be implemented by the very people it purports to assess! The outrage! It could even conceivably come to some sort of objective results, and it's entirely possible (in the sense of it being certain) that they won't be flattering! Or tolerant! Or respectful of cultural diversity! They won't reflect the "true" work in the schools, which is to say, the imaginary portion of work that these troglodytes beyond all contempt pretend to be doing, while the whole fucking country is at the same time illiterate and possessed of a law degree (which in local idiom is called being letrado, amusingly enough).

And they will spend millions of pesosiii! Instead of giving them to us! So we do whatever we want with them, preferably something very stupid and pointless! Unlike evaluating what we did, which isn't needed! And they will dare make the teachers responsible for problems which the teachers are responsible for, which is why they got together and agreed among themselves to no longer be responsible for them, but instead blame an inexistent abstraction invented for the occasion, call it "escuela publica". How dares anyone! Buitres! Enemigos del pueblo! Intervene in the religious practices of primitive tribal warriors! They got their designated scapegoat, they're going to burn it in effigy and everyone's good!

That gojineata public school "no se vende", notwithstanding that the absolute single path out of the shitter for these idiots would be to actively sell themselves to their betters, for cheap, with furious desperation.

Aren't you impressed ?

But let's move on : the workorder was "spot the largest TV station in town". The girl delivered, apparently Telefe (siempre juntos) is the largest by marketshare. In between a visit to the official leather workeriv and a visit to the BDSM club, we stopped by Pavon 2444 (also in Constitucion, the poor whores' neighbourhood). Here's how the largest TV station looks like on a late Saturday evening, in a town supposedly 20mn strong, which supposedly has a night life not to mention University campuses etc :

Wait, there's more :

That's the other side of the street. Not a bar, not a restaurant, not a cafe, nothing. Just a disused warehouse. Who ever heard of journos going across the street!

That's a view down the street. Nobody. NOBODY. See if you can replicate this result anywhere else, I'm curious. Go to whatever shithole town, see if you can get a shot of a deserted street in front of the largest local TV station.

But what is this! MP has been lying all along ? There is a nice cafe right on the corner of the street ?

Nope. There isn't. That is... a chair shop. Get it, sede-iana ? It's a pun. They're this fucking clever. They're just not clever enough to not kick customers out of the restaurant because "it's not open yet" in the middle of the fucking day, not clever enough to have a fucking bar next to the TV station, but whatever. They can pun!

This is the parallel street. You can see the same mast, you can see the same desolate pointlessness. The only open storefront is a Kiosco, these 3x5 sq ft 7/11s they do here. You can buy a pack of gum. Standing. Or a bottle of pop. That's it.

That's it and that's all, Argentina entire, a country which would be much better if it didn't exist at all ; a country which is much, much worse for its halfway pretension to existence as it stands today, skeins of nothing sewn together by the inconsistent offices of dubious narrative yarns. A cardboard cutout of a country, entirely made for Adsense and nothing else.

And now let's move on to the Peruvians. They held a festival last night, the attendance was miserablev but the costumes florid. Here's a bunch of photos :

That'd be it. Anyone selling WMDs ?

———Contrary to what you might have been told, "who gets to kill whom" is the golden standard of political power, which is why we say the Jesuits were politically powerful while the witches were politically powerless. Because like it or not, the only goal of politics is killing the other - everything else's just window dressing.

This killing, of course, needn't involve murder necessarily - for instance I specialize in killing the stupid out of women so they can be pleasantly useful slaves rather than annoying, needy and depressive "independent careerwomen". The process of that killing when it doesn't involve actual murder is universally called education - which is why your college degree made you annoying, needy and depressive. You went to the wrong college, run by the wrong party. [↩]By everyone, including the very "workers" they are displacing - note that no nativist complains of immigrants taking a job he wanted to actually do as it is ; the complaint always comes in the form of "undercutting", which is to say, undermining the entitled local-brewed schmuck's ability to leverage a supposed lack of alternative and thereby try forcing substantially higher wages in exchange for substantially less valuable work. [↩]A million pesos is just about worth 100 BTC. [↩]Everyone at the BDSM club knew the guy and agreed he's the best, so what can I say ? [↩]Fewer people watching than people participating ; a large fraction of the spectators being the boyfriends, girlfriends, brothers, sisters, parents, cousins etc of they involved in the parade. It is incomprehensible, but it did make for a pretty cool event - evidently Argentina is always better without argentines. [↩]

Overheard in my kitchen

(Note that it isn't exactly my kitchen. I just hold the title while they hold the derivative precaria.)

"Ugh, this is so obnoxious!" she growls, raising the overcunti skirt of her dress way up over her bellybutton and coiling to reach behind her back.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm extracting a hair from under this thing. Despite I was all careful to put it on so that..."

"O yeah ? You should have to take it out of your beard. All coiled up in there like nobody's business, so now your face is moving incorrectly."

"How often does that happen to you ?"

"I dunno, once a week ?"

"This is the fifth one today!"

"It isn't even my hair!"ii

"Oh yeah ? I bet you never had to fish out one of your curled up twisted beard hairs from under your clitoral hood!"

"Or you know, finding one on the back of your tongue."

"Or in between your teeth!"

"Wait, seriously ?"

"Yeah! And I hadn't even been fucked recently."iii

"O yeah!" and he pumps his fist in delight.

"Why are you so happy ?"

"Dude, that hair made it!"

"Or getting one out of your bra material where it had been poking you in the underside of the tit."

"Ah yeah, that happens to me too".

Because it fucking does, they get caught in the silk and suddenly my shirt's made out of dogwool.

Is there an app for this yet ?

Nobody could have foreseen their using a woman as a weapon

Motto: This is about that, obviously.

Nobody could have foreseen that isotretinoin aka 13-cis retinoic acid is reasonably easy to synthesizei, and in any case readily available in great volume.

Nobody could have foreseen someone could infiltrate the warehouse of a major pharma distributor, and quietly replaced the birth control patches stored there with their equivalent versions - except rather than based on ethinyl estradiol and norelgestromin, these'd just be a slow release mix of isotretinoin and dimethyl sulfoxide.

Nobody could have foreseen that women who wear birth control patches do so in order to engage in otherwise unprotected sex, just like nobody could have foreseen that the few and far between that'd actually notice an improvement in their acne wouldn't necessarily complain to anyone about it, much less to anyone competent enough to catch on. Because nobody could have foreseen that in "modern democracy" such competence is no longer available, unless forewarned the most specialized specialist would not think to look into the patch, nor would have the tools to do so. Because that's what JIT means, and that's what specialisation means : you can't do anything, unless you prepared for it in advance - and so the "serve and protect" people can't serve and don't protect.

Nobody could have foreseen that the ill effects would go unnoticed for weeks, perhaps months until anyone actually figured out what's going on. Nobody could have foreseen that even then, it'd probably be a little too late for most of the women involved, just as nobody could have foreseen the hassle of identifying all the victims, tracing all the sales and so forth etcetera would readily exceed the capabilities of a recently Obama'd health system.

Truly nobody could have foreseen how beautiful coneheads with a vague Hitchcokian profile can really be, small ears and deffective hearts and glands y compris. And how they, too, could change the world!

As per tradition, let us continue by pointing out that for all you know this plan is well underway already, and has been going on for the past three weeks. For all you know a shelf stocking peon is grinning as we speak. For all you know next Saturday you'll meet the father of your child, which you probably should baptise Alfred. In either case. What difference do you think gender makes, when isotrentinoin is there to offer a solid basis to similarity ? Alfred's a fine girl's name.

What now ?

Suffice it to say that if you can make meth, you definitely can make this ; suffice it to observe that at last count there were in excess of 100`000 households and other premises that could make meth, just in a fraction of the Northern fraction of the American continent. [↩]

As expected, FUCKGOATS became available to order during November, in a very technical interpretation of "November".

Our first batch sold out within about an hour and a half of it being announced, which is a pretty good result I'd think.i We are of course working on preparing a second batch, just as we're working on assembling and delivering the first one.ii

We're very grateful for your business, folks, and remember - buying FUCKGOATS not only puts a dent in the enemy grin, but it also helps the right kind of NSA stay in business.

———Because of the bizarre timing, the actual sales will figure in the report for December, however, which is to say the next one. [↩]The parts made it, and first tests show them working fine ; we're drawing around 50kbps of entropy of a 7.999997 bits to the byte sort of quality.

There's two principal items this month :

Phuctor backend was rewritten with Bernstein's pairwise-gcd algo, presently fighting with Unicode retardation in the front end. Thank you so much for being inclusive with orc scripts, dear idiots. So, so worth it - think of all the great programming work & assorted cultural contributions using Arabic ligatures and Central Asian shitscripts!

Perhaps more importantly, force marching an Ada implementationii of arbitrary finite-field arithmetic ('bignum') for immediate use in Cramer-Shoup (discussed previously), likewise for use in 'g', 'p'; likewise for use in place of GMP, anywhere such is used (e.g., Cardano's RSA routines and potentially in the weapon to be wielded in the July war).

There's more, but we're already discussing too many secrets in public, so this should suffice.

As far as Phuctor is concerned, things are humming right along. The whole of SKS circa May '16, 4`265`572 entries has been processed. All that remains, and is presently feeding in, is Framedragger's converted SSH key dump. 334`505ii of these have been fed in so far, from a 10`609`285 million total.

In other news, testing of Finite Field Arithmetic routines, an implementation of both traditional RSA and a Cramer-Shoup scheme as well as testing of a Luby Transform implementation are all in progress.

During the current month we put in a lot of work, of which principal highlights include :

Various TRB contributions, including a stupendous amount of hand-cranked and machine-assisted research and experimentation on the codebase (largely documented in the #b-a logs), on-line technical support as well as Malleus, Tinyscheme Genesis and Shiva.

Phuctor was re-written almost from scratch for the 4th time, and is presently being tested. The current priority (for the 4th consecutive weekend).

Conducted a deep archaeological digii of the GPG code base, looking both forward and backward from ver. 1.4.10. Found precisely one gibblet worth backporting into the Cardano MPI fork : the 'RSA blinding' TEMPEST countermeasure. Otherwise turned up a mountain of extremely depressing crud. Koch turned long ago.

Work on 'g', a fairly urgent half-cocked kind of gossipdiii. This led into a very time-consuming literature survey where I discovered that there in fact exists no block cipher having any legitimate scientific foundation whatsoever, and provoked the B,TMSR~ Block Cipher Competition. The S.NSA entry is to be an implementation based on Cramer-Shoup. As it turns out, Cramer-Shoup has never been publicly implemented by anyone, at all.

With apologies to investors and any other interested parties : if so much of our work wouldn't actually require camping out in the wilderness, by coyote song and tumbleweed dance, we probably wouldn't take so very long to do everything. Alas...

———This will be a recurring expense. [↩]The results of this effort will be packaged in either a summarized format for Qntra or in more detail as time allows. Writing papers on archeological expeditions enjoys a relatively low priority at No Such lAbs, even if doing the actual work of digging is by necessity unavoidable.

Engineering work during the current month :

Continued in the vivisection/audit of GPG 1.4.10. The bignum (field arithmetic) and RSA routines are clean, tested, and ready for use in anger; presently reworking the entropy-distillation code (this will exist in two variants, one for Cardano, based on alf's earlier draft, and another for use on a unix box - in 'P' and 'gossipd', eventually.) The original from GPG has... some issues.

Some very minor work on TRB (1, 2). We are also maintaining three working TRB nodes (173.73.235.152, 216.15.33.203, 46.166.165.30) currently, on rather powerful boxes (one of which S.NSA is paying for).

Heavy re-engineering of Phuctor, to make full use of the very spiffy new box aforementioned. This means: fully-parallelized 'werker' (presently under testing); use of an 'adult' db in place of sqlite; an all-new front-end (common lisp!) which, among other things, will record meaningful traces concerning keys which, for whatever reason, fail to parse. And on top of this eats Unicode and other rubbish without choking. (yes, implementing rfc4880 in CL...). Hopefully get it all together before Monday. Also considering implementing Bernstein's variant of the Coppersmith attack, but this will definitely NOT be happening in the near term.

As far as Phuctor is concerned, we have a detector of longfp collisions ; not yet deployed, but imminently. Otherwise RSA keys keep popping, as discussed in the forum, and we're broadly looking at various implementations with an eye to find the truth wrt the question of the century. There are other things on a low fire.

As far as GPG is concerned, we did look through the code subsequent the rng bug news, but not so far found anything important. Sadly, there's no refunds for improductive inquiries in this world.

Work ongoing for a tmsr-rsa implementation, with a view to subcontracting from Minigame (MPEx:S.MG) and also using as a basis for the republican efforts generally - such as the Cardano.

No Se Fia

Intro

mircea_popescu Hey asciilifeform check out the update to The Internet of Shit . Most of them got shut down within 16 hours or somesuch.

asciilifeform Srsly? Then again sp4mz0rz treat ips like toilet paper. Nothing is ever really killed...

mircea_popescu What can I tell ya... I suspect most of this was voluntary, actually. It's good business for them to avoid anything with claws. I expect Trilema is on a blacklist now.

asciilifeform Likely.

mircea_popescu Which, honestly, is EXACTLY how things should fucking work. There's absolutely nothing wrong with "police brutality", just as long as the brutalized are the losers. Rape is actually right and proper, just as long as the only rape victims are poor women and their children, whatever sex or age. Etcetera. No human claws, no human rights.

asciilifeform Sanitation is still a thing.

mircea_popescu Need I link to the Spanish discussion ? Sanitation is not for everyone.

asciilifeform I was just about to. And the reason the good Count de Alba y Yeltesi was a nut, is that it dun work this way. Without sewer, kings die as well as slaves. Some things don't compartmentalize.

mircea_popescu The reason the good count failed (which has little to do with his being a nut) is that briefly, economic conditions dictated to pretend the worms are "all people". That brief bubble burst, meanwhile. History is back on its sanity track, rather than the exceptional "tail end of industrialism before robotics" moment.

asciilifeform Sanitation dun scale down to 'boutique economy'.

mircea_popescu What do you mean ?

asciilifeform Well, say mircea_popescu's castle has sanitary fixtures, but surrounding plebeville doesn't.

mircea_popescu Ok. (Which is exactly how things are right now.)

asciilifeform He goes out to collect fucktoys, catches his death.

mircea_popescu Catches nothing. I collected more fucktoys than you collected post parcels, here I am.

asciilifeform Because this isn't what we have now.

mircea_popescu No, because the magical moment of "tail end of industrialism before robotics" are gone. THEN it was a certain way. But then and then only, at no point prior and - if there's any mercy in the heavens - at no point ulterior.

asciilifeform He lives in a 20th c. - style town. With sewer.

mircea_popescu First off, favelas don't have sewage. I was too preoccupied otherwise to take pictures of street - with channel down middle, like 1600 Spain! Do you want to see it ?

asciilifeform mircea_popescu hangs out in favelas?!

mircea_popescu Of course I do! What, where the fuck do you pick up fucktoys, huh ?

asciilifeform Yes! It sounds fascinating.

mircea_popescu Aite, next I go ima try an' keep my mind on the road.

Outro

You can take the girl out of the slum, but what does she say to the slum as she's leaving ?

Knowing you was my fate ; leaving you is my pleasure.

Something's better than nothing at all...

"There shall be no confidence given ; no credit extended ; no trust in you and no faith for you." No se fia.

That's Cheezus, the natural coming together of Nuestro Senor Jesu Cristo Pablo Diego Jose Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno Maria de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santisima Trinidad Ruiz y Pikachu and El Comandante Ernestino Rafael de la Luz de la Sonrisa Guevara de la Serna y Llosa-Lynch. They saves.

Do you suppose police get many reports of stolen shopping carts ?

It is to be said, that as far as these things go, this one is better off than most, even if every white hair on your back stands on end looking at the dusky doom. It is also to be said that the only difference between the fifteen and the thirty-five year old female inhabitant is that while both are visibly itching to make my acquaintance, only the younger actually dare approach and open conversation.

Life.

Mysterious Auction of Grimy Mystery!

It's been half a year since the last auction,

and so therefore continuing the tradition of the monthly Minigame official auction every six months

we shall meet in game Sunday, Obtocer the 16th,

at 17:00 ARTi

to dispose of one Grimy Toolkit,

with a base value of 4`642`690 ECu.

(I'm paid by the inch so bear with me.)

While it is currently not clear what the item does or how it is to be used,

I'm not going to clarify the matter

other than by observing that

damn it

I forgot what I was

going to say.

In any case I hope you appreciate my poematic skills and avantgardist blank rhyme

My First Bitcoin, or How Do I Get Some Satoshi ?

One obvious approach would be to buy it. Nevertheless, this doesn't work for everyone. Maybe you've no money to spare, maybe you don't trust any of the fiat exchanges, maybe their patent insanity is making it impossible for you to buy.

Whatever the reasons - here's a list of alternative means of getting your hands on a few satoshi, bitcents, bitdimes and who knows, possibly whole Bitcoins :

Play Eulora. Eulora is a Bitcoin-based MMORPG developed by MiniGame. You can download the latest client, check out the wiki or chat with the community. On the latest estimates you should make at least 100`000 satoshi/day playing. There's no maximum.

Write for Qntra. Needing no further introduction, Qntra has been dominating Bitcoin news for years now. Accepted articles gain you shares at the end of the month ; shares currently trade at 0.00014970 BTC on MPEx, meaning a hundred word news report will net you close to ten dollars' worth of Bitcoin at the end of the month. If you manage one weekly, that's 213`857 satoshi / day in cold hard cash, not counting all the other benefits (such as for instance making a name for yourself). You'll have to talk to BingoBoingo in #trilema to get started.

Go topless. Plenty of girls took up the challenge already, but there's always room for another pair of boobs. You can only do this once, but on the day you do it you'll get 1`000`000 satoshi for ten minutes' "work", if you can call it that.

The only question left is, why would you be wasting your time on faucets, PPC schemes and tired old boring cookie cutter videogames once you have this list ? Like they say in Latin America, "if you don't have Bitcoin, it's because you want to not have any!"

Multivariate calculus for experts

As previously announced, Eulora now logs trades of players. So problem solved, right, we'll soon see prices of all items and that's that.

Wrong.

For one thing : supposing the players are P1, P2, ... Pi... Pn whereas the items are I1, I2, ... Ii... In, the logs look in practice like a whole lot of

Pq gave Pu : Cv of item Is and Cn of item Ih and Cm of item Ij,

whereas Pu gave Pq the sum of 17`230`715 ECu.

Py gave Pi : Cz of item Is and Cx of item Ih,

whereas Pi gave Py : Cb of item Ig and Cm of item Ij.

This doesn't readily reduce to anything, so Joe traded five matches and three ducks to Moe for fifty dollars and half a bag of tobacco. Is a duck worth two matches or isn't it ?

Well... if you aggregate enough of these trades to provide sufficient constraint you MIGHT be able to resolve the matter, in the sense of allocating exact values. If you can't allocate exact values, you should however always be able to provide the boundries for all items involved, so that Value(Ix) is within an [a,b] set so that b

Mr. Right

Mr. Righti is the definitive notation of the mainstreamii mating dance as per mainstream expectations, regulations and aferations anno 2015, loosely fitted to yet-another rendition of thatiii tired oldiv script. You wanna know what's the ideal for repartee today, watch this, it's all therev. Otherwise the only noteworthy point is that threesomes of the girl-boy-girl variety are clearly on the move, and in a little while it will no longer be socially acceptable for a woman that surprised her boyfriend fucking another woman to decline joining them if invited. Which, after all, is exactly as it should be, the "traditional marriage"/monogamy bullshit has certainly outlasted its sell-by date.

As far as Anna Kendrick is concerned, the stupid bitch is so uptightly wrapped even #TheFappening produced naught but a few dozen shots of her fully dressed (she also did some Playboy features in the same vein). This is key to her credibility in the role of disobedient, puritanical, neurotic girlie lost among a sea of symbols that are truly alien to her just as she pretends this not be the case. She has a lot in her heart and mind, you know, and her cheap mass market blouse must be chosen to "reflect" this. Because reflection is a word without meaning, just like all the others, and can ignorantly be applied by one of these "upper class" "intellectuals" to any random thing in any random context. Post-structuralism ftw, except implemented by chickens in the chicken coop.

The bullet jet streaks are all there by the way, you can rest easy Neo hasn't died in vain. More generally, all the pointless, intricate effort that went into the script, all that superficial differentiation and meaningless curlicue merely makes the tedious, trite, entirely expired conventions of the RomCom ever more glaringly obvious underneath, nude in all their shrivelled, odorous inadequacy. Which, in a sense, is an apt comment on the entirely pointless generation that lost itself to polishing the turd ; that sorry bunch of useless, worthless, ignorant and infantile idiots splitting their time between finding "themselves", not being racist and making etsy cutesy vintage-like purses and cat ears.

Say goodnight, Agatha. Trump is here to sell you all into bondage-marriage to Saudis and Somalis. You will not be missed.
