02:13 asciilifeform ok, fluffypony's extradition judgement (txt) is pure gold. rec'd read for erryone tuned in.
02:13 asciilifeform will paste highlights. e.g. accused of stealing a princely sum of... $99,185.
02:16 asciilifeform 'As detailed above, the purpose of an extradition hearing is to decide the sufficiency of the charges for which extradition is requested under the applicable extradition treaty; it is not to determine the guilt or innocence of the fugitive—that determination is reserved for the foreign court. ... (“A United States court dealing with an extradition request for an accused is obliged to
02:16 asciilifeform resist any temptation to judge the guilt or innocence of the accused.”) ... An extradition hearing is not a criminal proceeding. ... Rather, it is “an administrative proceeding arising under international law for certification and approval of the State Department’s decision to extradite this person at the request of a foreign government,” ...
02:16 asciilifeform '
02:17 asciilifeform 'Accordingly, the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure do not apply to extradition proceedings. ... (“Proceedings not governed by these rules include . . . the extradition and rendition of a fugitive.”). Moreover, many constitutional protections applicable in criminal cases do not apply to extradition proceedings; for example, the exclusionary rule is not applicable... and a fugitive does
02:17 asciilifeform not have the right to confront his accusers...'
02:18 asciilifeform 'Nor do the Federal Rules of Evidence apply to extradition proceedings.... Hearsay evidence is admissible at an extradition hearing, and “[a]certification of extradition may be and usually is based entirely on the authenticated documentary evidence and information provided by the requesting government.”... unsworn statements may be sufficient to justify extradition)... Nothing more is
02:18 asciilifeform required, and typically nothing more is provided.... “It is exceedingly rare for the Government to submit anything other than documents in support of an extradition request.”)
02:18 asciilifeform '
02:19 mats this is so dumb its hard to believe
02:19 asciilifeform 'Extradition treaties do not require, or even anticipate, the testimony of live witnesses at the hearing. Indeed, requiring the “demanding government to send its citizens to another country to institute legal proceedings, would defeat the whole object of the treaty.” Relatedly, a fugitive has no right to discovery... and his right to challenge the evidence against him at an extradition
02:19 asciilifeform hearing is severely constrained...'
02:19 mats he directed a payment into an account in his own name instead of a shill?
02:19 mats and thought no forensic accountant would ever discover the scheme?
02:19 asciilifeform 'A fugitive may not introduce evidence that contradicts the evidence submitted on behalf of the requesting country, but rather may only introduce evidence explaining the submitted evidence.... Courts routinely reject technical and affirmative defenses in extradition proceedings.... extradition court “properly may exclude evidence of alibi, or facts contradicting the government’s proof...'
02:20 asciilifeform i could go on, but why. read whole thing.
02:20 mats looks like a frame up job
02:21 asciilifeform fascinating document.
02:21 mats literally can't believe a guy with that much money from his latest con would offer himself up to american law enforcement
02:22 asciilifeform reads almost as if judge were a reluctant servant of the reich, and wanted to highlight the sheer insanity (essentially, secretary of state has letre de cache power over anyone on us soil -- simply needs to connive with some banana republic with whom extraditory treaty exists, to accuse the victim of sumthing or other
02:22 asciilifeform )
02:22 asciilifeform mats: observe, they aint trying him in usa.
02:22 asciilifeform will be 'tried' slowly over a simmering coal fire in africa. until coughts up the keyz.
02:24 mats why would he flee from s africa, which has a MLAT agreement with usa, and head for usa
02:24 mats not like the proceedings were hidden from him
02:24 asciilifeform mats: doubtful that he was aware that he was 'fleeing'.
02:25 mats "He pleaded not guilty to the charges, and the trial against him was commenced. Evidence was presented against him, but SPAGNI failed to appear in court."
02:25 asciilifeform mats: read the txt, apparently simply leaving and failing to immediately return to $shithole when they had whatever (supposedly) proceedings against you, is 'flight'.
02:25 mats ??? did he think the americans would shield him?
02:25 asciilifeform cites case law.
02:26 mats and they, what, reneged?
02:26 asciilifeform i'ma spell out for the thick. usg dept. of btc collection connived with sa to 'file charges' against this discount-mp.
02:27 asciilifeform then waited until he flew his jet (yes) to whatever the fuck he was doing in tennessee (cheap whores? shitcoin conference?) and packed him for shipment to johannesburg
02:27 asciilifeform where they'll angle grinder his teeth etc.
02:28 mats hmm
02:28 asciilifeform aaalternatively mats you could believe that a fella w/ own jet and 800k watch and $maxint shitcoin etc stole 99k $ by kiting cheques.
02:28 mats well the wire fraud predates bitcoin
02:28 mats allegedly
02:28 asciilifeform and can't backdate because why.
02:29 asciilifeform naturally it'll 'pre-date bitcoin' lol
02:29 asciilifeform the case is so crudely cooked up, possibly even down's syndrome american jury would reject. which is why it aint about to be heard by such a jury.
02:30 asciilifeform it'll be heard by general mugabe or whatever they have these days.
02:30 mats backdate is an appealing theory, but there isn't even circumstantial evidence
02:30 asciilifeform mats: on whom in your mind burden of proof ?
02:30 punkman $100k eh, was expecting even lower
02:31 mats i'm just saying there's not enough pieces here
02:31 asciilifeform mats: my story above has at least 100% of the credibility of usg's nonsense.
02:31 asciilifeform and, unlike said nonsense, motive, and plausibility.
02:32 asciilifeform hey mats you ever been to, say, thailand ?
02:32 mats nop
02:32 asciilifeform let's say no. but from my reading of the linked txt, there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to stop us sec. of state from extraditing mats to thailand. today.
02:33 shinohai http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-08-02#1050063 << ahahaha this was exactly my thoughts - why would "suddenly" be charged for change in his couch cushions?
02:33 dulapbot Logged on 2021-08-02 22:24:14 asciilifeform: aaalternatively mats you could believe that a fella w/ own jet and 800k watch and $maxint shitcoin etc stole 99k $ by kiting cheques.
02:33 asciilifeform all he needs is to get somebody there to send a telegram asking for mats, he's wanted for stealing $trillion.
02:33 asciilifeform court will rubber-stamp.
02:33 asciilifeform 'extradition court “properly may exclude evidence of alibi, or facts contradicting the government’s proof...''
02:33 asciilifeform 'i aint ever been to thailand' is no defense!!
02:35 asciilifeform for that matter, folx large and small, from noriega to common chimp, get extradited to usa, where they've never set foot even once, and sentenced to 500 years. so superficially even seems 'fair', to casual plebe reader, that the reverse sometimes happens.
02:37 mats ill suspend evaluation until he dies in custody or the trial concludes
02:37 asciilifeform ''(“In the context of determining whether a defendant poses a substantial risk of flight, this Court does not find any meaningful distinction between a person who left the country when he learned of pending charges and one who already outside the country refuses to return to face these charges. The intent is the same—the avoidance of prosecution.”)... finding fugitive to be a flight
02:37 asciilifeform risk because, among other things, he could have “return[ed] to Mexico and voluntarily surrender[ed], [but] he has not done so”).''
02:37 asciilifeform ^ gold.
02:38 asciilifeform mats: i find it difficult to imagine the d00d getting out of that one alive. but fuck knows.
02:39 asciilifeform not does asciilifeform have a single lick of sympathy for that fuckwad. simply finds interesting that tonight mats , asciilifeform , et al can be extradited to saudi arabia, and 100% legally, impeccably legally.
02:39 asciilifeform pretty sure i broke saudi laws quite egregiously many times. as has mats etc.
02:40 asciilifeform so what if never been within 10000km of the shithole..
02:41 punkman "Unfortunately, due to a misunderstanding with regards to the setting of court dates in an old matter, which I have continuously been trying to resolve since 2011, have been held in contempt of court and currently awaiting extradition. I am hoping to resolve this misunderstanding within a short while. In the meantime my business affairs will
02:41 punkman continue under the leadership of my partners."
02:42 asciilifeform lol same partners who, likely, helped to set up.
02:42 punkman SA economy crumbling, people over there thought they might make some BTC, found old bezzle to use
02:43 asciilifeform betcha they know how to extract btc from intransigent white devil in sa.
02:44 mats not so easy if its not a brain wallet
02:44 * asciilifeform wonders if usg official in charge was smart enuff to demand % of his cut in advance
02:44 asciilifeform mats: all wallets are, in some sense, brainwallets.

06:17 punkman another one for the pile of bodies: Risto Pietila. apparently died in car accident last year.
06:18 punkman and his Bitcoin Castle burned https://www.hs.fi/ulkomaat/art-2000005820143.html
06:22 punkman "At the heart of Pietilä’s empire was the Dragon Cult, where he was its dragon. That is, an absolute dictator that everyone had to obey immediately. The most loyal then received surprise gifts, usually bitcoins or moneros worth hundreds of euros and sometimes even thousands of euros. However, you could never know if money was coming or not.
06:22 punkman Thus, the members of the cult were always kept on their toes poking."
06:24 punkman "The more submissive you were to the dragon, the more money you got. You also had to take part in his online dragon game and learn its code language. If you believed in the dragon enough, then your dreams would come true. True believers would get everything they ever wanted."
06:31 punkman he was trying to do a "nationalism" in Finland, alt-right/alt-media, "Fixit" (ala Brexit)
06:31 punkman "In fact, it was Pietilä that caused a wide range of mentally ill, drug addicts, alcoholics and other lunatics to flood the alternative media and nationalist activities in general. Normally, such a gang is quickly eliminated from political activity, but not if they are supported by a millionaire.
06:31 punkman "
06:34 punkman "Pietilä himself often wondered how easy it is to buy people. He stressed that it is never worth giving very large sums. Reportedly, a few dozen per person can go a long way, especially if you occasionally give a few hundred."
06:35 punkman "Risto Pietilä was a tragic figure in many ways. On a personal level, he was pleasant to those he respected, but really raw and outrageous to the “ordinary” people. He was a real extremist."
06:35 punkman "Despite all his shortcomings, Pietilä could really have saved Finland by supporting genuine nationalists. However, he never agreed to it, but on the contrary, together with the power elite and polpo, sabotaged and rotted genocidal activities. Without Pietilä's support, Korhonen, Huuhtanen and the violent drunken straps would never have been able
06:35 punkman to rot the nationalist field."
06:36 punkman "Then this autumn, Pietilä died unexpectedly in a very strange car accident. Death looks strongly like suicide. Pietilä was very bipolar in the sense that he spent a couple of months getting excited about something and worked very effectively. Then, however, I was depressed again and everything stopped. He often went on “vacation” to a mental
06:36 punkman hospital."

18:03 punkman did ya know flu completely disappeared worldwide since last March
18:04 asciilifeform punkman: not reappeared yet? at some point i'd expect they'd revert the relabel, s/covid/flu again
18:04 punkman not for lack of testing, at least in EU and most other countries I looked at
18:04 punkman they are saying some flu variants might have gone extinct
18:05 punkman best theory they have (pulled from arse) is that travel restrictions, social distancing and mask are the reason
18:06 punkman but also disappeared from countries with barely any "covid measures"
18:08 asciilifeform punkman: the shuttering of hospitals under banner of covidiocy can similarly magically disappear almost all disease. straight from bed to funeral parlour, now they go, and the mortician doesn't diagnose or increment e.g. flu stats
18:15 punkman yeah that was my line of thinking, but here take a look at EU stats: https://i.imgur.com/kbm4qjp.jpeg
18:19 punkman anecdotally, I haven't caught the flu since 2019, and same for friends I've asked. Also met a guy that works in lab and is responsible for reporting flu cases, hasn't had a single one since March 2020
18:21 punkman of course, a LOT of the flu experts have moved on to being covid experts, so pretty much nobody looking into this
~ 18 minutes ~
18:39 signpost yeah, I'd credit the "those particular bureaucracies are currently clogged, hence 0 metrics" hypothesis
18:40 thimbronion One theory is that the covid-19 test can't distinguish the two
18:40 signpost watch as various other treatable ailments suddenly become much more dangerous as hospitals clog with people of walmart succumbing
18:41 signpost eh, I've got enough meatwot medical to doubt any specific conspiracy theory about covid not existing.
18:41 signpost now... hospitals killing people by not knowing how to treat last time, yes. probably.
18:43 signpost and now, at least in texas, why would we expect ICU capacity to be at a reasonable level in a place that can't run a power grid?
18:45 thimbronion Personally convinced it's real. I tested negative for the flu around March 2020 after being sicker than I've ever been. There was no covid test available at the time.
18:51 signpost frankly I think those dumb fucks were playing with gain-of-function research and let something out.
18:51 signpost I also think that one of the reasons it has been so bad for some is their underlying deplorable health.
