Fwd: [cryptome] Fire & Fury pdf

A lovely reading to a lazy Sunday night, hihi... :) The archive seems perfect and very interesting, but some people are having difficulties for downloading the book. If it's your case and you really want to read it, just send me a hello in private, please. Douglas, if someone annoy you because of this book, you can say that *any guilty is completely and exclusively mine*, OK? :) Being sincere, I will probably be dead or already living another reincarnation before the North-American Justice send me any formal notification about it. <cof, dead slug velocity, cof!> ;P Kisses, kisses, and more kisses!!! <3 Ceci ---------- "Don't let anyone rob you of your imagination, your creativity, or your curiosity.

Go on and do all you can with it, and make it the life you want to live." - Mae Jemison ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Douglas Rankine" Date: Jan 7, 2018 18:55 Subject: [cryptome] Fire & Fury pdf To: "Cryptome Mailing List" see url: https://cryptome.org/2018/01/Fire-and-Fury.pdf I found this file somewhere on the internet, I can't think where. I wouldn't advocate downloading it myself, as I wouldn't want to be served with a "Cease and Desist" order, but one can read it, or excerpts from it online,and I most certainly wouldn't purchase such tripe from the likes of Amazon, as I don't want to feed the author's and the subject's craving for chocolate.... Enjoy, ATB Dougie

2018 Clusterfuck Forecast
by g2s 08 Jan '18

08 Jan '18

James Kunstler's cynical forecast includes BTC "Bitcoin and other cryptos have a superficial appeal as a wealth safe haven supposedly out-of-reach of avaricious governments — if you don’t consider everything else that’s wrong with it. (Yesterday, Dec 31, Australia’s biggest banks froze the accounts of Bitcoin investors.) I think the safe haven idea will prove fallacious. Governments are already finding ways to interfere, using taxation schemes and shutting down exchanges. Bitcoin’s other claims on “moneyness” look bogus as well. It’s too unstable to be a medium of exchange, and too difficult to even access when need to sell, and you certainly can’t price anything in it as it shoots up and crashes every day. Bitcoin went way up because people — or maybe just algorithms — saw it going way up, so they hitched a ride. The rush to the exits will be brutal. Its final resting place will be zero, but perhaps not without a trip or two to nosebleed levels in 2018, especially as other markets wobble in the first half of the year. Bitcoin $50-K wouldn’t surprise me. But I’m not among the buyers. Enjoy the show...: In full http://kunstler.com/clusterfuck-nation/forecast-2018-go-wrong/

[OT] [coderman] Fwd: Delivery Status Notification (Failure)

I do hope coderman is doing pretty good, feeling awesome, and simply left his Gmail account forever, but... well... I don't know if he is still alive or not, and I am feeling more stupid than usual for never telling him before how much I liked his messages... :'( PS - OT: - Thanks for all the lovely private and public messages giving me support, smiles, hugs, and good vibes. I will answer with a huge delay for personal reasons, but I will *not* leave this list because I do have exactly the same right of being here than all the nazi scum. And if someone is annoyed about my "bunny" messages only, please, learn how to create filters. It's very simple, easier and more efficient than having a hysterical public crisis.

Well, I am a stupid girl, I admit, but I am sincerely worried about your silence and your health. A lot of people that I love, like, appreciate (different grades of love and friendship) is dying and it hurts me a lot. I hope you are still alive and happy, please. Take care and be well, please.

>> If your computer is owned, your wallet is at risk. So it's the perfectly strong and open wallet tech that's the problem, not the stubbornly refusing to actually do anything to open up and fix the closed computer and software business and to educate the users brain along with it. Right. >> This appears major problem for the widespread adoption of bitcoin >> IMHO. Cryptocurrency has far greater adversaries and open technology challenges to solve than any sort of direct user issues. > modulo hype. FUD. >> Fixing it appears to contradict decentralization, which opens another >> can of "worms". >> >> Potential approach is to use "trusted wallet proxy", but this may not >> work in practice. They're called storage / banking / service / insurance / payment corporations. Users are free to proxy their wallet safety / reversibility needs through one or not. Others are free to blockchain and whatever new tech advances come around that thus helping avoid third party cost / risk. Tech is one thing. Personally educating users is also your responsibility as creators of said tech. Eschew that and your tech vanishes regardless of how comfy it is. At least you chose name "wallet" which users have natural desire treat similarly, imagine if it was called "keep your digital encrypted dataset repository safe". > The Bitcoin community has bought into what might be called the "security of > the chain" fallacy - that the security of the chain is more important than > the security of the users. Security of both are reasonably well known. Acting accordingly and fixing weaknesses within each is different story. > WYTM Major one often is FUD, resistance to change, head in sand, anti progress. > Since early days, hardware wallets, cold storage and multisig have been > proposed. But these are hard to use. FUD. Learn to use, integrate and teach them. Banks / Rulers are no easier, and redistribute significant fractions through massive financial games, far more from users over time than any new crypto hw / storage / multisig, or even legal escrow storage service costs, or the occasional small amount compromise of a given daily use personal device. > whatever design you come up with, there needs to be some reversibility built > in at some point. Which kinda flies in the face of raw blockchain. > So blockchain needs to compromise, as do the people. Typical... given a new strong groundbreaking world changing technology, and try to dumb it down, make it revert, comply and conform to the old stone age ways and the whims of rulers, instead of making the mental leap and other fixes needed to grow past the old.

News Headlines Not Seen This Week
by Zenaan Harkness 05 Jan '18

05 Jan '18

I know, I know, some of these are likely to hit the (((Main Stream Media))) in the next week or so, but seriously, I'm getting damned impatient already: CNN: Jewish Banking Compassion - $250 trillion Forgiven ------------------------------------------------------- Surprise and amazement in the economic world today as Lord Jacob Rothschild the 4th publicly announced that with the stroke of his digital pen he has wiped off a little over $250 trillion of global "sovereign debt", instituting a new era of truly compassionate and rational banking. Lord Rothschild's surprise move effectively introduces a different kind of "global reset" from that which many analysts have been predicting now for quite some years and was undoubtedly a disaster set to eclipse the depression beginning in 1929 which lead to great suffering and ultimately to the Second World War. This reset of the majority of the world's "debt" is a far more compassionate face to the "Khazarian mafia" as it has often been named, and follows in the footsteps of President of Russia, Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin who in his 20 or so years ruling Russia, wiped off significant debt from countries including Venezuela and North Korea in genuine and substantial efforts to support Russia's trading partners rather than to subjugate them into total economic servitude. NYT: Israel Surrenders East Jerusalem ------------------------------------- Parliamentarians in the Knesset today passed a profoundly forward thinking resolution which is certain to begin a genuine peace dialogue in the Middle East, a resolution formally acknowledging the multi faceted population of Jerusalem's old city, in particular the Eastern precinct which is largely populated by Palestinians and claimed by much of the Muslim world as one of the most holy Islamic sites. The Guardian: Hollywood Vows to Eliminate Pedophilia ---------------------------------------------------- In what is seek as a shocking and unexpected acknowledgement, Hollywood bigwigs have not only endorsed Corey Feldman's campaign, but have vowed to fundamentally shift the machine of (((American culture generation))) into a radically transparent mode of operation in every aspect of the business to eliminate the abuse of children which for so long has been consistently denied and buried to the greatest extent from the public view.
