Ze Russkies are coming! Jolla jolla jolla! Surprise surprise, Rus+Chi "Aurora" Android replacement on the way - [PEACE]

Well, no surprises here, and OS diversity, and centralized orwellian government monitoring backdooring and tracking diversity is also a good thing - as in, it's better than no diversity and having just a single centralized orwellian government monitoring backdooring and tracking Octopus entity watching your every move. Librem Puri.sm Debian and other FLOSS software and hardware "fully free man, fully free" is the relevant target, so keep your eyes and wallets open :) The only question is does this new Sailfish Jolla Aurora Android replacement contain the Enlightenment EFL libs FTMW (for the muffaluggerin win muggaluckera).

Cryptocurrency: Total Energy Analysis - Crypto Uses Less Than Fiat

Such cataloging and analysis requires more work, more data, more actual redpill thought, than just simple hashrate/J/$... so of course people take shortcuts in such articles, as do other people in their pronouncements stemming from them. > Other less-destructive schemes exist to prevent DoS attacks.

The needs and model for overlay nets, ie tor, will of course be different than those above. And always interesting where tech various ends up being applied. [1] Hint: Cryptocurrency actually consumes less, and further finally forces inefficiency and other undesired things out of Fiat by displacing it... hopefully faster than it can adapt. Some say that has a value, one that many will be quite happy to sink a bit of premium into if need be.

Better cache replacement policy for CPU caches
by Ryan Carboni 16 Jun '19

16 Jun '19

Based on available information, CPUs use least-recently used as a cache replacement algorithm. This is excessively deterministic and leads to numerous side channel attacks. I propose a new cache replacement policy that would fix and prevent some categories of AES software timing attacks noticed since 2005. All cache lines in the L1 cache will have a bitfield dedicated to each thread. When a cache line is loaded or read, a bit is set for all hardware threads except for the one requesting the data. When replacing a cache line, the first cache line with an unset bit is replaced. This is done by incrementing through each cache line and inspecting the bitfield, if the bit is set, it will be unset, and then the next cache line is inspected. This will prioritize replacing cache lines used by the current hardware thread over cache lines used by other threads. In the worst case, a thread will end up loading data to the L2 cache before it can load data into the L1 cache. I call it the Canadian replacement algorithm because they are known for excessive politeness. This can be considered an inversion of the second-chance algorithm. I won't touch upon the issue of context switches and software threads. Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com) Secure Email.

peak WTF CNNPC: Trump sounds like Hitler, speech written by Putin - [MINISTRY] [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 16 Jun '19

16 Jun '19

Speaking of train wreck portents of the empire. Oh CNN, how is it that you excel so severely at being eternally mockable, the stock of the back stop of the raw stock of humiliating "Western" (wink wink, bris bris) lame stream media? CNN analyst claims Trump’s speech sounded like HITLER's, but script was written by... PUTIN?! https://www.rt.com/usa/452918-cnn-analyst-trump-hitler-putin/ A CNN analyst and Biden Institute adviser has raised eyebrows by comparing Donald Trump to Hitler for a turn of phrase once used by Joe Biden himself. But she still has no doubt Trump's speech was 'scripted by Putin'. Offering her thoughts on the president’s speech at the 2019 Conservative Action Conference (CPAC), Sam Vinograd told her CNN colleagues that she was horrified that Trump had spoken about “reclaiming our nation’s priceless heritage.” For Vinograd, this was clearly a message lifted straight from Mein Kampf. “His statement makes me sick, on a personal level, preserving your heritage, reclaiming our heritage, that sounds a lot like a certain leader that killed members of my family and about six million other Jews in the 1940s,” she said. She went on to lament how Trump had used his CPAC address to “spread misinformation and conspiracy theories." "He undermined the credibility of several of our institutions, he sewed divisions, he sewed confusion, he was speaking to his base, but he was also saying things that really looked like Vladimir Putin scripted his speech," Vinograd said.

I don't live a particularly stimulating life
by Ryan Carboni 16 Jun '19

I have been told alternatively through various means that the act is its own reward or that "I thought I would get away with it". I have been systematically isolated, and deceived for no logical purpose whatsoever. The fact in it self that I have been isolated would disprove that I would commit any of the acts I'm accused of, and I could only assume those insinuations are solely for the purposes of sadism or stupidity to gloat as to their power over me. It is prima facie harassment if you make a person aware of an investigation against him and do not admit to it.

“If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” - George Orwell - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 16 Jun '19

“If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” - George Orwell The Omnipresent Surveillance State: Orwell's 1984 Is No Longer Fiction https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-06-11/omnipresent-surveillance-state-or… It’s been 70 years since Orwell - dying, beset by fever and bloody coughing fits, and driven to warn against the rise of a society in which rampant abuse of power and mass manipulation are the norm - depicted the ominous rise of ubiquitous technology, fascism and totalitarianism in 1984. Who could have predicted that 70 years after Orwell typed the final words to his dystopian novel, “He loved Big Brother,” we would fail to heed his warning and come to love Big Brother. “To the future or to the past, to a time when thought is free, when men are different from one another and do not live alone - to a time when truth exists and what is done cannot be undone: From the age of uniformity, from the age of solitude, from the age of Big Brother, from the age of doublethink - greetings!”—George Orwell 1984 portrays a global society of total control in which people are not allowed to have thoughts that in any way disagree with the corporate state. There is no personal freedom, and advanced technology has become the driving force behind a surveillance-driven society. Snitches and cameras are everywhere. People are subject to the Thought Police, who deal with anyone guilty of thought crimes. The government, or "Party," is headed by Big Brother who appears on posters everywhere with the words: "Big Brother is watching you." We have arrived, way ahead of schedule, into the dystopian future dreamed up by not only Orwell but also such fiction writers as Aldous Huxley, Margaret Atwood and Philip K. Dick. “If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” - George Orwell … What once seemed futuristic no longer occupies the realm of science fiction. … “People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.” - George Orwell … We are increasingly ruled by multi-corporations wedded to the police state. … In fact, Big Tech wedded to Big Government has become Big Brother, and we are now ruled by the Corporate Elite whose tentacles have spread worldwide. … Money, power, control. There is no shortage of motives fueling the convergence of mega-corporations and government. But who is paying the price? The American people, of course. [and fellow Souls all over this ole world...] Orwell understood what many Americans, caught up in their partisan flag-waving, are still struggling to come to terms with: that there is no such thing as a government organized for the good of the people. Even the best intentions among those in government inevitably give way to the desire to maintain power and control over the citizenry at all costs. As Orwell explains: The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power, pure power. What pure power means you will understand presently. We are different from the oligarchies of the past in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites. The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had the courage to recognize their own motives. They pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just around the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal. We are not like that. We know what no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now you begin to understand me. “The further a society drifts from truth the more it will hate those who speak it.” ― George Orwell How do you change the way people think? You start by changing the words they use. In totalitarian regimes—a.k.a. police states—where conformity and compliance are enforced at the end of a loaded gun, the government dictates what words can and cannot be used. In countries where the police state hides behind a benevolent mask and disguises itself as tolerance, the citizens censor themselves, policing their words and thoughts to conform to the dictates of the mass mind. Dystopian literature shows what happens when the populace is transformed into mindless automatons. ... We now find ourselves in the unenviable position of being monitored, managed and controlled by our technology, which answers not to us but to our government and corporate rulers. This is the fact-is-stranger-than-fiction lesson that is being pounded into us on a daily basis. It won’t be long before we find ourselves looking back on the past with longing, back to an age where we could speak to whom we wanted, buy what we wanted, think what we wanted without those thoughts, words and activities being tracked, processed and stored by corporate giants such as Google, sold to government agencies such as the NSA and CIA, and used against us by militarized police with their army of futuristic technologies. To be an individual today, to not conform, to have even a shred of privacy, and to live beyond the reach of the government’s roaming eyes and technological spies, one must not only be a rebel but rebel. Even when you rebel and take your stand, there is rarely a happy ending awaiting you. You are rendered an outlaw. So how do you survive in the American surveillance state? We’re running out of options. As I make clear in my book Battlefield America: The War on the American People, we’ll soon have to choose between self-indulgence (the bread-and-circus distractions offered up by the news media, politicians, sports conglomerates, entertainment industry, etc.) and self-preservation in the form of renewed vigilance about threats to our freedoms and active engagement in self-governance. Yet as Aldous Huxley acknowledged in Brave New World Revisited: “Only the vigilant can maintain their liberties, and only those who are constantly and intelligently on the spot can hope to govern themselves effectively by democratic procedures. A society, most of whose members spend a great part of their time, not on the spot, not here and now and in their calculable future, but somewhere else, in the irrelevant other worlds of sport and soap opera, of mythology and metaphysical fantasy, will find it hard to resist the encroachments of those would manipulate and control it.”

The Dummies Guide to Starting World War 3 is hot off the Russian^BCIA presses playpenblackmailbook and Iran's arse is toasty. Yep, we all immediately believe that despite making major moves to be friendly (and sell moar oil) by releasing a CIA Irani-eye 5-eye spy, dancing with the Nips and doing everything possible to avoid Oil Sale Sanctions 1-0-1. Oh, but the Saudis and Israels wants moar control moah turmoil, more west banking land and moar moah MOAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHHHHHHHHH! MOAR Muffaluggerahs! Spank the little goy-sies and watch them blow up, spank the little goys and watch them blow one another up! Ok, ok, time for a tutorial - how to bring on public support for your next bloody and murderous war, CIA-nam style. Gulf of Tonkin 2.OH?! You betcha :D Yee Haw muggahluffaguhs, da YANKs are BACK in town yo! False Flag intro to World War 3 tanker attacks https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-06-13/false-flag-intro-world-war-3-tank… http://www.globalintelhub.com/ Most wars in the past 100 years have been started with a ‘spark’ which might be (((assassination))), (((attacking of))) a ship muffaluckas!, or bombing of Pearl Harbor by (((ignoring all signals at the behest of TPTB))). As we explain in Splitting Pennies the world is not as it seems. http://www.splittingpennies.com/ … Obviously, in the minds of the brainwashed masses, there is no such a thing as a false flag so Pompeo can pass the red face test when he is testifying in front of Congress. In the minds of the many – who could it be except the evil Iran, who dare attack a Japanese ship during a Japanese domestic event. How dare they? We’ll show them. More at 11. … Ahh yes, insatiable appetite for $mullah$ $mullah$ $mullh$ maffulackas$!‼ But WARNING and TAKE NOTICE, there is almost a 100% CERTAINTY that the Israelis have ABSOFRUCKINGLUTELY NOTHGIN TO DO WITH THIS PARTICULAR FALSE FLAG AND DON'T YOU DARE SAY OTHERWISE. So with that particular FACT (muckaloffas!) in mind, let's continue with the article above: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday described what he said was a secret atomic warehouse in Tehran and accused Europe of appeasing Iran as he sought to rally support for U.S. sanctions against the Islamic Republic. Netanyahu said the site contained some 15 kg (33 pounds) of radioactive material that has since been moved, and he called on the U.N. atomic agency to inspect the location immediately with Geiger counters. “I am disclosing for the first time that Iran has another secret facility in Tehran, a secret atomic warehouse for storing massive amounts of equipment and materiel from Iran’s secret nuclear program,” Netanyahu said. Ooohhhhhhhhhhh, sooooo, so so wrong! It really IS the Israelis - oh well, let's just pretend it's not them because to ack a fackt is anti-f¤cking-semitic, rite? Right! So just don't bloody go there, (((the international bankers))) may get upset that their latest war is being exposed. Yo!
