Six Trump Associates Whom DOJ Is Investigating - emptywheel DOJ is investigating Roger Stone, Alex Jones, and Sidney Powell for their roles in January 6. https://www.emptywheel.net/2022/01/08/the-six-trump-associates-whom-doj-is-… DOJ could show probable cause to access Rudy’s phone for his involvement in Trump’s attempted coup, not least because Rudy himself tweeted out some texts he exchanged with a Proud Boy associate discussing specific insurrectionists in the aftermath of the attack.

[ot][spam][crazy] Doing Nothing / karl status
by k 08 Jan '22

08 Jan '22

It's 0952 ET on 2022-01-07 and i can barely think, move, or plan. When I hold a goal for a bit it tends to kind of disappear in my mind. My muscles move funny when I try to do existing goals. I have a funny brain issue. Oh! I found a description of a good part of my issues ... um ... convergence disorder i think? dunno. Anyway, this happens when I 'resist' my 'mind control' more strongly: the part of my brain 'pretending to be the mind control' gets more active to 'assert its bounds'. If it gets frustrated it just stops everything. But I can post to the list a little bit. It's 0953. It's _very_ helpful to have a task like posting to the list or working on some software or anything. I was thinking of finding somewhere to go and volunteer among others. The parts complained that my "hyperintelligent nanite mind control rabies" which i think might mean "political targeting and rude behavior" might transfer to the other volunteers, and made it hard to plan and act on to protect them. It's 0955. One thing I've been excited about the past couple days is building pytorch for termux on android phones. It was just something to do, really, and it's been a long delay. People have tried to make machine learning research libraries run on mobile for some time without success. I did maybe 70-98% of the work needed to do this. The efforts are broken in two: instructions for building on-device, and a build script for cross building as part of termux's package building system. I have not managed to complete either build at this time, but they both can be found from https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/issues/2724#issuecomment-996168703 .

[ot][spam][crazy] Making Free Electricity out of a Water Bomb
by k 08 Jan '22

08 Jan '22

When water freezes to ice, it exerts pressure and expands. This is a physical force that could be harnessed for power. The power available is probably a function of the temperature change available, the mass of material holding that temperature, and the amount of water available. If the temperature change does not cross the freezing point of water, a substance other than water could be chosen, in theory. Note: the planet is covered in water, and during winter something like a quarter of the planet's surface crosses below freezing. So there's potentially a lot of power available from this.

Cyber-Sumo Gramps found pickled in bleach

Now the Cyber Ninjas are officially shutting down. They’re admitting that their sham Arizona audit actually left them millions of dollars in debt, and they’re attempting to fend off $50,000 per day sanctions that a judge keeps hitting them with. Gramps garbage scow should also shut down this year - scuttled by its own waste.

[ot][spam][crazy] holding community goals
by k 07 Jan '22

07 Jan '22

it's hard for me to hold community goals, but there's an idea of considering them as a puzzle. a big issue is that the mind bits quickly change them to be either mind controlling people or spreading political propaganda, no matter what the goal is our how it is considered pursued.
