Recreational pharmaceuticals by genetic engineering

I wondered what was written on this list the day I was born.Apparently, Tim may wasn't just a fascist, he was a biased man.I have a lot of single friends, and they're all cleaner than married people.Being clean is one's own choice.I think Tim may says that only women clean. 2 years ago, my best friend got married and she doesn't like to clean:)When I go to her house, I clean things up, for example, in the oven, it's dirty, and I clean it up.Cleaning is entirely one's own choice.She can cook in a dirty oven, but I don't do that.We are women, but we're different, and some guys are really good at cleaning.Cleaning is a sexless job https://lists.cpunks.org/pipermail/cypherpunks-legacy/1997-July/077786.html --------------------------------------------------------------- At 10:21 PM -0700 7/9/97, Steve Schear wrote: > I know this is off-topic for the list... > > But why hasn't some cleaver graduate student engineered a common mold or > yeast to yield easily extracted (or directly ingestible) common > recreational pharmaceuticals?

You know, if Jim Bell was still contributing to the list, the chemist in him would surely produce some posts on this. Then, when the narcs and BATFags searched his house and found the inevitable mold on the bread, the curdled milk, etc. (Jim is a bachelor, and a computer person, so the mold, etc. is inevitable) they could add this to the indictment. And "The Oregonian" could breathlessly headline: "Drug-Producing Molds Found in Home of Terror-Chemist." --Tim May

Jan6: Feds Admit to Running Secret DOJ Commandos

Feds Finally Admit to Running Secretive DOJ “Commandos” at Jan. 6 Trump Protests https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/01/breaking-feds-finally-admit-runnin… https://www.newsweek.com/exclusive-secret-commandos-shoot-kill-authority-we… The Department of Justice admitted this week to running secretive DOJ “commandos” at the January 6 protests in Washington DC. Four Trump supporters died that day including two women who were killed by Capitol Hill Police. A third woman was nearly killed but was rescued by Green Beret Jeremy Brown. SHOCKING VIDEO: J6 Political Prisoner and Green Beret Jeremy Brown Rescued Female Trump Supporter from DEADLY US Capitol Police Beating – WOMAN WAS NEARLY KILLED The DOJ Commandos were given “shoot to kill” orders. TRENDING: BREAKING: Georgia Investigators have 'Ballot Trafficker' Who Is Talking -- Admits to Being Paid THOUSANDS in 2020 Election Ballot Boxes Ballot Harvesting Scheme -- 242 Ballot Traffickers Detected Now they’re admitting the government did in fact have commandos at the capitol on Jan. 6. After nearly a year this information is finally coming out. And they accused this website and others of being conspiracy nuts for reporting on the feds in the crowd that day. We will likely never know how many feds were working that day to sabotage the peaceful protests. Newsweek reported: On Sunday, January 3, the heads of a half-dozen elite government special operations teams met in Quantico, Virginia, to go over potential threats, contingencies, and plans for the upcoming Joint Session of Congress. The meeting, and the subsequent deployment of these shadowy commandos on January 6, has never before been revealed. Right after the New Year, Jeffrey A. Rosen, the acting Attorney General on January 6, approved implementation of long-standing contingency plans dealing with the most extreme possibilities: an attack on President Donald Trump or Vice President Mike Pence, a terrorist attack involving a weapon of mass destruction, and a declaration of measures to implement continuity of government, requiring protection and movement of presidential successors. Rosen made a unilateral decision to take the preparatory steps to deploy Justice Department and so-called “national” forces. There was no formal request from the U.S. Capitol Police, the Secret Service, or the Metropolitan Police Department—in fact, no external request from any agency. The leadership in Justice and the FBI anticipated the worst and decided to act independently, the special operations forces lurking behind the scenes. “I believe that DOJ [Department of Justice] reasonably prepared for contingencies ahead of January 6, understanding that there was considerable uncertainty as to how many people would arrive, who those people would be, and precisely what purposes they would pursue,” Rosen later told Congress. He stressed that his department “no frontline role with respect to crowd control,” that they were focused on “high-risk” operations. The contingency units meeting on January 3 included the FBI’s Hostage Rescue Team, the FBI’s national “Render Safe” team, an FBI SWAT team from the Baltimore Field Office, Special Response Teams from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), and the U.S. Marshals Service Special Operations Group… …FBI tactical teams arrived on Capitol Hill early in the day to assist in the collection of evidence at sites—including the Republican and Democrat party national headquarters—where explosive devices were found. FBI SWAT teams and snipers were deployed to secure nearby congressional office buildings. Other FBI agents provided selective security around the U.S. Capitol and protection to congressional members and staff. A tactical team of the Hostage Rescue Team was one of the first external federal agencies to actually enter the Capitol after protestors breached the building. In addition to augmentation of emergency security assets, one team coordinated with the U.S. Capitol Police and Secret Service to provide additional safeguarding of Vice President Pence, who had been moved to the underground parking structure beneath the Capitol, from where he was supposed to evacuate. But Pence refused to leave the building and stayed underground instead. The presence of these extraordinary forces under the control of the Attorney General—and mostly operating under contingency plans that Congress and the U.S. Capitol Police were not privy to—added an additional layer of highly armed responders. The role that the military played in this highly classified operation is still unknown, though FBI sources tell Newsweek that military operators seconded to the FBI, and those on alert as part of the National Mission Force, were present in the metropolitan area. The lingering question is: What was it that the Justice Department saw that provoked it to see January 6 as an extraordinary event, something that the other agencies evidently missed.

here's my reply, as things are left atm. i'm thinking some of blockchain collaboration to reduce paranoia. previously, the thread seemed broken into factions, where a pair of people were arguing ferventlty and illogically to remove quark from the tree. they have reasonable points but don't back them up with logic, rather mismatching the logic. with this further disconnection one starts imagining the list breaking into fake lists where participants are surrounded by fake peers who treat them crummily. that's what blockchains and a handful of other p2p techs are designed to avoid ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Karl Semich <0xloem(a)gmail.com> Date: Wed, Apr 13, 2022, 8:10 AM Subject: Re: [coreboot] Re: Deprecation of the Intel Quark SoC To: Patrick Georgi <patrick(a)coreboot.org> Cc: Karl Semich <0xloem(a)gmail.com>, Coreboot <coreboot(a)coreboot.org> On Wed, Apr 13, 2022, 6:26 AM Patrick Georgi <patrick(a)coreboot.org> wrote: > Am 12.04.2022 um 23:54 schrieb Karl Semich: > > Obviously a way to sidestep all this would be to simply test the board > > in question, which is a small investment of money and time. > I appreciate that you volunteer to do that for Quark.
