00:03 mats_cd03 02:48:14asciilifeform:usg choppers were supposedly fired upon during 'katrina' << yep, i can confirm this second hand -- i know a few L.A. guardsmen that engaged in firefights with looters
00:04 mats_cd03 it should be public knowledge by now, i heard rumors about a documentary film about to be released a year ago, dunno if it materialized
00:05 nubbins` magine
00:06 mats_cd03 kinda controversial, as the regular army is prohibited from combat operations on american soil afaik (posse comitatus)
00:06 nubbins` when else would ya get the opportunity, i guess
00:09 mats_cd03 funny enough, some guardsmen participated in the looting
00:14 nubbins` when else would ya get the opportunity, i guess
00:14 nubbins` given the choice between grabbing a looter and grabbing a new flatscreen...

00:15 assbot CBC managers told of Jian Ghomeshi 'assault' allegations back in June - Canada - CBC News ... ( http://bit.ly/1HMnSgs )
00:15 mats_cd03 id have preferred a gun battle, personally.
00:15 nubbins` cbc's self-reporting on all this ghomeshi stuff has been stellar
00:16 mats_cd03 pitched battles with insurgents are fairly rare even for dudes in remote combat outposts
00:16 decimation mats_cd03: I know a few folks who believe that the regular army would generally have no problem with firing on americans if ordered to do so
00:17 decimation I'm not so sure myself, but I hope it doesn't come to that
00:17 mats_cd03 idk about that, i worked with a fair number of free thinkers ranging from lower enlisted to field grade officers
00:18 decimation I think there was a discussion about this awhile ago. I think that if it came to this (orders to fire on the population somewhere) it would probably tear the military apart, or at least damage the chain of command
00:18 mats_cd03 and i don't get the impression they'd be down with it. american military doctrine encourages autonomy at the company level in a lot of ways

00:19 dub a world where are americans are shooting each other is a safer world
00:19 decimation dub: happens every day
00:19 mats_cd03 which is great for tactical warfighting, but much less suited to a task better left for secret police
00:20 dub and yet america survives

00:22 mircea_popescu thestringpuller i guess so yeah

12:55 kuzetsa I just use a sane browser that doesn't run scripts by default
12:55 kuzetsa hidemyass wasn't on the whitelist
12:56 kuzetsa so I couldn't see the youtube video
12:56 kuzetsa and I was irked when I saw how many non-youtube scripts hidemyass was trying to run :(
12:57 kakobrekla thats to be used only when you are following links from unknown people btw
12:57 kakobrekla at least that was the original idea.
12:58 kuzetsa I didn't think anyone in this channel could post unless they were at least known in the -otc WoT
12:58 kuzetsa how are you defining "unknown people" O_O
12:58 kakobrekla strangers get voiced all the time?
12:59 kuzetsa do they?
12:59 kakobrekla temporarily, but still.
12:59 kakobrekla !up dooglus
12:59 kakobrekla -assbot- You voiced dooglus for 30 minutes.
12:59 kakobrekla looks like it!
12:59 kuzetsa that seems to defeat the purpose of having +m
13:00 kakobrekla idk have you been in this chan before in last few months?
13:00 kuzetsa I've been idling for several consecutive months
13:00 kuzetsa I usually don't pay much attention though
13:00 kuzetsa and I recently wiped my logs so it only goes back a week or two curently
13:00 kakobrekla myea.
13:01 kuzetsa I've only privmsg'd assbot with the !up thinger less than 10 times
13:02 mircea_popescu there's kinda no way out of the "i don't want to pay attention, why don't i understand anything" trap.
13:02 mircea_popescu pick one.
13:02 kuzetsa sure there is
13:02 kuzetsa it's not a trap if shut up

15:02 decimation kakobrekla: what about 'censoring' links from those who aren't in the wot?
15:02 decimation I guess that would imply full moderation
15:03 kakobrekla that would imply like own ircd
15:03 decimation yeah. irc is a creeky 1950's cuban ford pickup, it kinda works
15:05 ben_vulpes serenissima wish list:
15:05 ben_vulpes - rewrite bitcoin
15:05 ben_vulpes - rewrite pgp
15:05 ben_vulpes - rewrite irc
15:05 decimation don't forget 'throw out existing cpu paradigm'
15:06 kakobrekla yes that one should be first or else you will have to do the other 3 again
15:07 kakobrekla but i guess everything goes faster on the second try
15:08 decimation speaking of which there's some amusement re: systemd and surrounds: http://lwn.net/Articles/619068/
15:08 assbot Kdbus meets linux-kernel [LWN.net] ... ( http://bit.ly/15KSkc3 )
15:09 decimation DCOP was a bus that KDE used as an IPC layer between GUI programs; DCOP became DBUS
15:09 decimation now Greg KH, Kay Sievers and Lennart want to integrate DBUS into the kernel (DBUS)
15:10 decimation apparently integrating DBUS was tried twice before and DaveM said "hell no"
15:10 decimation so now they are going to try to integrate it as a character device
15:10 decimation Alan Cox: http://lwn.net/Articles/619142/ "No - these are reasons to have *something* in the kernel. I think it would be far more constructive to treat the current kdbus as a proof of
15:11 assbot Re: [PATCH 00/12] Add kdbus implementation [LWN.net] ... ( http://bit.ly/15KSro8 )
15:11 decimation concept/prototype or even a draft requirements specification."
15:18 mircea_popescu decimation the usg bois are getting butchered.
15:18 mircea_popescu it's funny how they always proceed with this "chiken can eat the highway" outlook.
15:20 decimation I think the might have some legitimate points about shortcomings in existing IPC mechanisms, but I don't see how shoving the entire protocol in the kernel makes sense
15:21 mircea_popescu of course they have some legitimate points.
15:21 mircea_popescu it's sort of like the beta dork showing up with his hot sister at the exclusive bar.
15:22 mircea_popescu the girl gets shoved in and he gets to stay behind the rope.
15:22 decimation heh yeah kinda like that
15:22 mircea_popescu in spite of having had some good points, mounted on the chick's chest.
15:24 decimation it's interesting to look through the linux mailing list thread to gauge various reactions: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/29/854
