dexX7: right now trading hasn't started yet on picostocks
pankkake: yes, 1) why picostocks 2) why no announcement before actual ipo 3) the support guy didn't say i don't know, he said no stock selling
mircea_popescu: some emo chick that doesn't wash ironically is still an slovenly slut.
mircea_popescu: hasn't seen a whole bitcoin in his life.
pankkake: raise 7500 BTC, be a cheap ass and don't pay for anything
mircea_popescu: which reminds me, haven't heard of the bitfinex thing in a while.
pankkake: I don't know odesk specifically, but most similar websites are like that
pankkake: they don't pay the guy :o
mircea_popescu: in opposition to this, something like scp over keybased ssh would be secure, in the sense you can't read messages.
mircea_popescu: but you can't find out who
mircea_popescu: so you know that someone on tor isn't using tor
Diablo-D3: [07:15:04] <pankkake> but why would they give it? when they seize usds, they don't give it to the usd community
mircea_popescu: pankkake you don't understand reddit. ask it anything, it'll say the same thing : "i want sum gimme"
pankkake: but why would they give it? when they seize usds, they don't give it to the usd community
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves you don't understand the free market man.
pankkake: ThickAsThieves: but you can't do anything about it (except create a change.org thing?)
pankkake: looking for how they got hacked so it doesn't happen again?
jurov: but you can't put them on top of each other
pankkake: jurov: lol, I don't even know how to do that
mircea_popescu: can't detect if serious
pankkake: no, that must be why it doesn't work!
pankkake: so I tried to make an altcoin (the bernankoin), but I'm stuck. not having bitcointalk doesn't help either
mircea_popescu: i think so. early 2000ish, wasn;'t it ?
thestringpuller: it can't grok links at all
mircea_popescu: you don't have wget, you can't use internet.
pankkake: ubuntu-standard is windows, certainly, but wget isn't a good example
mircea_popescu: i can't believe the girl's thing caught.
asciilifeform: this isn't exactly worthless info by itself, though
mircea_popescu: i don't think this problem is avoidable
mircea_popescu: i guess it's a good thing he didn't try to sell it on silkroad.
mircea_popescu: i don't know pot ever wasn't legal.
thestringpuller: http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=ro&tl=en&js=n&prev=_t&hl=ro&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.digi24.ro%2FStiri%2FDigi24%2FActualitate%2FSanatate%2FMedicament%2BTratamentul%2Bcu%2Bmarijuana%2Ba%2Bdevenit%2Blegal%2Bin%2BRomania
mircea_popescu: this is why big governments can't have nice things, irrespective of what uyou might have heard.
Duffer1: he didn't shut down anything, congress did
mircea_popescu: i can't imagine schneider actually penned that. he must have sent sometyhing that got "edited for clarity"
pankkake: it's also very weird when you get out and the sun isn't where it should be
jurov: !t m s.nsa
jurov: !t m s.mpoe
jurov: I don't consider Firefox the 'best of Web Browsing' or GPG the 'best
pankkake: but at least they woulndn't get any message before compromission
pankkake: asciilifeform: or simply, make your website use openpgpjs. don't get why no one does
FabianB: i think i saw at least one more, don't remember which article though
pankkake: I don't remember which, but there's one I was misreading for years
mircea_popescu: well this would be because phprekla can't phode.
jurov: as i wrote above, mpex doesn't round divs to whole satoshi/share
jurov: for this i must have all kinds of paranoid checks in my code...actually i contemplated checking that fractional part isn't >1 satoshi
mircea_popescu: basically last month i paid the 3mn shares on mpex as if they were the whole 10mn. which they aren't.
pankkake: from what I understand, they're doing it in the order of all orders, so hosted mining won't go before regular orders
pankkake: you can't really fake auctions though. it's mostly psychological
pankkake: though I don't even really understand what it is
mircea_popescu: there's something amiss here. that thing isn't going to make 200 btc over its lifetime.
pankkake: mircea_popescu: it's the *only* calculator that doesn't suck
skinnkavaj: Hey doesn't anyone think ADDICTION on bitfunder is a great buy? The kncminers are arriving, they just posted news. Has anyone done any calculations how much those shares can make in divends lately?
mircea_popescu: on the other, 30k less btc can't hurt anything.
asciilifeform: wouldn't it be funny if the 27k btc walked away sometime?
asciilifeform: didn't say it will be a government official inserting the iron
ThickAsThieves: Just found a couple bitcoins in an old BitStamp account, they won't let me withdraw until I do AML
pankkake: I haven't been able to figure out what OpenTranscations actually is
ieatcows: just saw this update if anyone is an ADDICTION holder. --- Some good news at last! As we speak, 9 miners are on their way to our datacenter. Since we don't trust UPS ;) (and UPS does not deliver on the weekends) we are picking them up ourselves :) We picked them up this afternoon so they should arrive in the morning (European time) where we will have them hashing asap!
thestringpuller: lol isn't mpex.co written in php?
pankkake: I wouldn't trust it, it does not have "Protected against SQL injections by escaping all possible user input" in its serucity measures
mircea_popescu: t
mircea_popescu: incidentally, for all the roiling against php i can't believe nobody's saying anything about ubuntu's gedit.
mircea_popescu: roughly speaking, "you've got thirty boys and that many girls. you've got one cock and it won't stand up. what to do ?"
jurov: i did not research their backgroud... even if it's UC, i don't care
ThickAsThieves: i promise i won't keep it a secret ;)
jcpham: i told them i'd moderate if it doesn't suck
mircea_popescu: what's the "real story" ? the movie of how some boy in ghana couldn't afford to buy his sweetheart shoes so he hatched a plan to build an internet paper empire ?
pankkake: doesn't matter. even if everything labcoin says is true it is still a scam
Kushedout: Anyone know what this is all about? https://picostocks.com/stocks/view/31 cause it doesn't look legit http://i.imgur.com/ZMf6Lvt.png
KRS1: I disagree..that couldn't possibly be the case.
KRS1: Why can't infrastructure managers use dedicated lines? Are they that keen on saving money that high risk infrastructure be connected to public networks?
deizel: i'd like to know before putting money into a hacked exchange written in cakephp that doesn't even have the securitycomponent enabled on the login screen
mircea_popescu: only worse in ways and areas its userbase doesn't give a shit about.
mircea_popescu: us president goes "the markets aren't paying enough attention, we are going to default!"
plambert: why does campbx have a price limit of 1111.11 dollars? They don't let you put in asks for higher than that amount?
Duffer1: nope doesn't look like he's around
asciilifeform: i don't think the ussr lived to get fiber taps right
asciilifeform: see, don't misunderstand, nato doesn't formally own all the oceanic fibers, etc. but if someone can cut your fiber and weld it back with a magic box inline, and you can't do squat about it... you don't own said fiber.
mircea_popescu: it doesn't mainly consist of us telecom now.
asciilifeform: it would be interesting to see an internet that doesn't consist mainly of u.s. telecom oligopolies.
mircea_popescu: i don't see why this is so hard to graps, but the sovereignity of the internet is not negotiable, it is mandatory.
asciilifeform: my suspicion is that the inquisitor (the fellow who actually ran the show) - and definitely the judge - weren't really prepared for the 'we don't have a backdoor already' statement by L
mircea_popescu: pretty fucking pernicious this, the defendant doesn't get to go around and chat weith the judge off the record first, before picking one.
asciilifeform: I imagine there was a precedent where it didn't fly. That, or L and all of his predecessors had uncommonly drunken lawyers.
mircea_popescu: after which he won't give the keys because he's concerned the govt might imprison him by using those keys to read his email.s
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: IANAL, but i don't think you can do that in a civil action
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform finally, what i don't understand in this whole thing, is why didn't the guy just take the 5th ?
mircea_popescu: except they're asking for copies to the front door keys, not for the front door t obe unlocked.
asciilifeform: the lusers driven off lavabit likely won't be using gpg, they'll be dropping plaintext (or going home and crying.)
mircea_popescu: the guy still can't drive.
asciilifeform: he needn't be aware of the fact, either
mircea_popescu: well obviously, as it diodn't exist in 73.
Vexual: we wouldn't have heard about it in 73
asciilifeform: it is possible that he did know. but was forced to deal with people who don't
mircea_popescu: i still don't quite grasp this part.
asciilifeform: these just sit catatonically and don't do much of anything, i imagine
mircea_popescu: personally, i don't care how it ends.
mircea_popescu: i don't know what exactly is modern about him ? the rolls are full since at least the 1300s with the same type.
mircea_popescu: they didn't magically become trotsky.
