crtdaydreams[asciilifeform]: something tells me they won't be boycotting shorts
awt_akris[asciilifeform]: $ticker btc usd
busybot: Current BTC price in USD: $51255.47
asciilifeform: crtdaydreams: the reiser 'boycott' had 0 to do, at its root, with 'ohnoez he axed wife'. it was part of the de-individualization gotterdammerung of opensores, where faceless corp-sponsored 'Official' projects displaced those of actual-person works
asciilifeform: the perps give 0 shit, 1 way or the other, when some faceless slave on a google galley axes wife etc
asciilifeform: (these regularly 'psycho' when their nerves give out, sweating in 'up or out promotion' hell, working 14h days, trying to live to see options vest, and so forth, it aint even national news when they do, typically)
signpost[asciilifeform]: ^ perfectly accurate description of the one that ate my last co
signpost[asciilifeform] got paid and got the fuck out.
signpost[asciilifeform]: encouragement was "oh but in one more level you'll be the guy imposing 14hr days on others!"
signpost[asciilifeform]: on items that are likely to be shuttered unceremoniously no less, adding to the theater of it all.
signpost[asciilifeform]: and in other news, new psyop about to drop.
asciilifeform: signpost: which ?
signpost[asciilifeform]: rumor mills are on about a "highly destabilizing" and "new" russian capability
signpost[asciilifeform]: looking for a worthwhile link
signpost[asciilifeform]: inb4 "uh we just realized that poseidon is for putting out the fires started by hypersonic icbm nukes"
asciilifeform: these were advertised in '17 neh
signpost[asciilifeform]: https://twitter.com/DRBoguslaw/status/1757818034427662596 << "the intercept" propagandist in re: space weapon
signpost[asciilifeform]: these would go back to the 60s I'd have to believe.
signpost[asciilifeform]: USSR and USA both had nuke orbiters afaik.
asciilifeform: signpost: coupla obv problems with these (nuke not keeps like ammo spam can, reqs periodic maintenance; items in orbit follow predictable trajectories, easily dinged, incl. by rubbish; moving into position can take day+; etc)
signpost[asciilifeform] would barely be able to contain his boner if it turns out the "UAP" items are a superior country having cracked gravity manip.
signpost[asciilifeform]: mm, maybe something else then
asciilifeform: modern man dreams of being finished off with wunderwaffen, but condemned instead to die of boredom.
asciilifeform: signpost: perinently, renewal of infamous 'section 702' is going atm. hence 'omfg wunderwaffen threat' etc
asciilifeform: *pertinently
asciilifeform: ( for non-usa folx -- '702' == dictatorial powers for nsa, circa bush II )
asciilifeform: periodically renewed + expanded
