Quick question re TLSA lookup error
by Douglas Lucas 10 Dec '21

10 Dec '21

Twitter keeps giving me "Twitter is over capacity. Please wait a few moments then try again" when I try to DM, so maybe there's a competent person on this list (lol) who can answer: Under the Obama and Trump administrations, the US State Dept had a phone number for journalists to contact. It has since been removed; the website now instructs: email PAPressDuty(a)state.gov. I looked up the old State Dept phone number and called it. The voice recording told me the same thing: email PAPressDuty(a)state.gov. Monday I emailed. Didn't get a reply until yesterday. The reply I got was (among other error message stuff that appears general/unhelpful): "<PAPressDuty(a)state.gov>: TLSA lookup error for stimson.state.gov:25" So I'm wondering if anyone can interpret the technical significance of such an error for me. Predictable paint-by-numbers opinion blatherings by crazed and/or paid losers will be ignored. Doug

How to isolate/figure out whispers in audio clip?
by Douglas Lucas 10 Dec '21

10 Dec '21

Hey cypherpunks, I have an .MP4 clip of Joe Biden whispering to 13-year-old Maggie Coons before trying to kiss her: https://douglaslucas.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/JoeBiden_ChrisCoon… The relevant portion of the clip begins at approx 1:05. Biden whispers: "By the way, if you want to know how important it is, being thirteen" and then I can't make out the rest, I think due to the loud camera shutter. Can anyone suggest an audio program (preferably for Linux) that can help isolate Biden's voice? Computery techniques I could use, or you could use, to help figure out what he's whispering? For reference, the event this clip is from took place on January 6, 2015, and the full video is here: https://www.c-span.org/video/?323601-1/senate-ceremonial-swearing-vice-pres… Doug

On “Count 2: Conspiracy to Commit Computer Intrusion,” in the superseding indictment against Asshat
by professor rat 10 Dec '21

After reading an eye-opening article yesterday by @Emptywheel, I’m finally beginning to understand the CFAA conspiracy charge against Julian Assange and I think it’s important that you do, too. It’s important so that we realize just how serious the indictment is, exactly what it entails, and that it’s not just about the government’s argument, “Assange helped Manning hack some stuff.” https://jimmysllama.com/2021/08/14/19216/

Journos : the state's most blatant propaganda agents
by professor rat 10 Dec '21

10 Dec '21

A few good ones being the exception that make the rule. The burning question of the day is why any widely recognized ' Cypherpunk Revolutionary! " would ever stop calling themselves that and start calling themself after such a widely despised profession as ' Journalist "!? Extreme & borderline suicidal self-loathing being the most logical and obvious reason.

The Wikileaks political line

Stefan Claas puts it most succinctly >>> My take on it, as German Sauerkraut. I consider President Putin as the smartest and most skilled Head of State, the world has. I say this as a 100 percent President Trump fan. Poland and the Polish people, defending EU borders are real heroes and I have the utmost respect for them, compared to woke folks in Germany. <<< JULIAN "of course Russia understands this game and Putin understands this game for a long time now" ASSANGE 2013
