mikaeldice: arbitrary? No, or it wouldn't be protected
mikaeldice: I'll leave your hint to this.. somewhere on the system will be an administrative user who can access the security software to disable these protections; the system won't allow you to remove the last security administrator
asciilifeform: if i can't execute arbitrary ring0 instructions, i'm not root
mikaeldice: I hadn't, but it'll be taken into account now :D
Apocalyptic: <asciilifeform> it'll be mostly a footrace though // don't be so sure :)
Apocalyptic: I think you don't really have a way to proove it's their
mikaeldice: Maybe the webapp can sign a message every hour or something, but I don't know if that'll include the IP address where the message was signed
mikaeldice: I don't have that to throw around. But I could probably start a bitbet for spectators who don't have access.
mikaeldice: There will be conditional access allowed, or the webapp won't work
Apocalyptic: that's a good starting point, otherwise it doesn't make sense
mikaeldice: People who can't get the wallet, people who think that giving away root access is too permissive and that it's impossible to block root
mike_c: i can't tell if their webpage is broken or just really bad
nubbins`: i don't get it

jurov: prolly they don't have mircea to show the The Right Way
asciilifeform: given that i don't, for the most part, live there

asciilifeform: (who wants to build an electron spin-valve machine? don't forget to market it as 'derp.')
asciilifeform: some costing just a dollar or two. but they won't make you rich.
Bugpowder: I was surprised by that fidelity thing that it hadn't driven the market up higher…. guess we know why. One person did it and Second Market oversold it.
Bugpowder: heheh, I don't care about that market.
asciilifeform: 'don't click until you see the whites of their eyes.'
asciilifeform: the hard part, as always, isn't the plane/boat ticket, but the destination. most of south america was wide open to ww2 refugees; few went.
benkay: mircea_popescu: i don't have the luxury to let my money make more money
benkay: mircea_popescu: i strongly suspect i won't have time to get out of the country.

jcpham: didn't scroll fr enough
asciilifeform: forging a hologram isn't exactly building a thermonuke
mircea_popescu: <Bugpowder> nobody paid attention when I posted it to reddit on the 28th. People needed a wired article to make it news. << ridiculous, isn't it.
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: wouldn't it be more logical to trust one you've filled personally?
Bugpowder: can't even get you a nice condo in LA
mircea_popescu: i don't think anyone took it for more than that. caldwell was making a few cents here and there with it, but not worth his time
deadweasel: holy shit I wasn't kidding
the20year: no way to tell it hasn't been redeemed before you buy, is there?
mircea_popescu: they weren't hard to fake afaik
asciilifeform: 'didn't your mother teach you not to hook strangers to your DC supply rail?'
asciilifeform: hid isn't even the end of the story. you could probably slurp a bit of key via diff. power analysis if you attach.
nubbins`: i can't wait until the first malicious fake trezors hit the streets.
asciilifeform: can't wait until somebody starts selling 'magic' miners that diddle the system bus to make this happen.
nubbins`: the best part about leaving windows behind is being able to say "sorry, i don't know anything about that shit" when asked to troubleshoot computer problems for family members
the20year: I still don't see how it's magic
asciilifeform: the20year: without phased array, you can't have anything like the subscriber density of today
the20year: I don't understand how that's magic
asciilifeform: the real 'magic' in modern cell phone isn't the miniature handset, but the phased array antennae on the stations.
asciilifeform: 6k 'glass' already happened, in the '90s. it just isn't priced for humans.
mircea_popescu: <nubbins`> doesn't really give G any incentive to not fuck up, does it? << exactly right.
nubbins`: doesn't really give G any incentive to not fuck up, does it?
nubbins`: it doesn't affect the government, as an entity, at all
nubbins`: no rush either way, i can't redeem my s.mg stock warrant until mid-january anyway, and will likely sit on it long past that date
mircea_popescu: !t m s.mpoe
mircea_popescu: well... most people don't have the brainpower that'd allow them to walk and chew at the same time
asciilifeform: that isn't made by Boeing and doesn't cost $100k
asciilifeform: 'what, stereo vision? i wasn't really using that for anything!'
mircea_popescu: we don't advertise a product that isn't yet orderable, no.
mircea_popescu: not a customer dude. review copies aren't it.
mircea_popescu: "Google wasn't just going to ship the devices to us bloggers and figure things out for ourselves."
mircea_popescu: well it hasn't actually delivered to customers has it.
mircea_popescu: pankkake shhh, you don't understand forum investing.
pankkake: the Yesses don't stop coming, I don't really get why

Kleeck: I don't really frequent bitbet
Kleeck: (I haven't checked)
pankkake: I don't think he has disclosed how much he pays the dev?
ThickAsThieves: "Traders don't want volatility in the currency that they are taking in."
pankkake: but the whole input/output thing is there for a reason, I don't think it can be easily changed
dexX7: you can't take "half of an output, so you don't have any change"
mircea_popescu: they don't even know that's a thing.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves it also reveals this funny "we have no understanding of any of the constraints of the space, therefore we don't understand what competence is or why would you want to build on the results of others"
pigeons: mircea_popescu: i noticed when i was a child people's "orthodontists" would reccomend the child get braces to pay for a new boat for the "doctor". He told my mom my sister really needed them because otherwise low self esteem could mar her life forever. You notice lots of people with the exact same shaped teeth, its rather boring. It doesn't seem to bother Britons who floss with pocketknifes and forks
mircea_popescu: i ain't calling no office. they come here and tell me.
mircea_popescu: the panama thing isn't running anything.
pankkake: zh doesn't use disqus
mircea_popescu: pankkake well apparently it doesn't work that way.
dexX7: the article doesn't sound very positive though.. or the reporter is clueless about how things work
mircea_popescu: you can't tell the shitholes from the fuckholes anymore i swear.
mircea_popescu: wasn't this zerohedge thing supposed to be like, NOT verge/gawker/vice/whatever ?
mircea_popescu: kinda the sign of the end days isn't it.
pigeons: well i don't have anything to hide so i leave the bathroom door open when i take my dumps
pigeons: we can't tell the tin foil nut from the oppressed anymore
pigeons: I don't think anyone competent would even have any desire to run a USD/AUD/UK/whatever government money <-> BTC exchange
truffles: t
fiat500: wall street isn't a thing, this secondmarket crap is no different than the tradehill and coinlab VC jokes
KRS|Gotchawallet: Ooooie...I can't believable..just like a leetle girl.
