pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: fine for me because
i don't think tevye's processing them any faster than that. was stuck on 022 for like 4 hours. now stuck on 029
mircea_popescu: then when reality contradicts you...
i guess will continue, because hey. gotta believe usg is the little shitengine that can.
mircea_popescu: this is something you keep stating as fact,
i keep laughing at, and you keep stating as fact.
ascii_butugychag: mircea_popescu:
i thought it was a usg-powered co. and therefore could as easily dispense btc (obtained from prisoners, or toomim) as gold dubloons
ascii_butugychag: for 400 ~btc~,
i will write it in brainfuck, to run on dead squirrel in cardboard box
mircea_popescu: which is how come
i even know people who can digest the concept of stuffing 256gb in a box.
ascii_butugychag: 'Quoting directly from its manpage, the keyrings facility is primarily a way for drivers to retain or cache security data, authentication keys, encryption keys and other data in the kernel.' <<
i don't recall asking for this to be a thing.
BingoBoingo:
I sometimes wonder if F2Pool's English language PR strategy is simply a method to get people to leave them the fuck alone.
mircea_popescu: it is possible.
i've been looking for smoke on satpics, nothing showing.
mircea_popescu: The human incentive to adopt this chain would be incredibly low though as everyone has GregCoins now and any exchange that decides to allow arbitrage between the two chains is going to see huge dumps onto the GregCoin chain which will quickly obliterate the price. Why? Because the very large majority that own Bitcoins want the blocksize to increase.
I will also happily flush my GregCoins the instant some stupid schmuck
mircea_popescu: in other news, teh reddit astroturf brigade has done some studying, and is now quoting [without attribution, of course] what
i said last time, but with the persons switched. because yeah, totally, that's how things work o.O
funkenstein_:
i guess "premier" wasn't good enough for gribble
copypaste: as far as
i'm concerned at this point any bitcoin hardfork is an altcoin and every softfork is a way to give free coins to miners at some later date
copypaste: mircea_popescu:
i've heard some saying that miners won't "allow" the halving to occur because they would never "vote for" something so against their "best interest"...these people don't understand the social contract behind bitcoin of course, or even that miners don't vote on anything but who gets 25BTC
mircea_popescu: your "push button,
i matter" mental model is only applicable here inasmuch as you're hypocritical enough to go "
i planted tree, and got an apple, therefore am in control" sorta thing.
ascii_butugychag: mircea_popescu: 'life on earth' is not an instrument,
i don't push buttons on it and expect a timely response
mircea_popescu:
i imagine we'll be hearing a lot about how, and to quote,
assbot: Logged on 17-01-2016 16:44:07; ascii_shmoocon:
i can think of exactly one: an 'mp-hawala', where mo transacts with the other 17 or so olympians, indeed requires no minerz...
mircea_popescu: this is the first time
i changed it since introducing the fucking concept back in 2012 ish.
mircea_popescu: anyway.
i've moved my tx fee from 0.0001 (~4 cents) to 0.00022 (bout a dime, give or take).
pete_dushenski: ascii_butugychag:
i'll just leave it as-is for now. see what happens.
mircea_popescu: <danielpbarron>
i'm at a diner right now watching my explore bot via ssh terminal on fone << epic.
danielpbarron:

danielpbarron: you should be able to play eulora on gentoo (
i do)
pete_dushenski: waitwut kraken bought coinbase and cavirtex ?
i thought kraken did like 10 coins a day in volume. that's like instagram buying facebook.
pete_dushenski: thestringpuller: he plays more games than
i do. except he plays on dos or w/e
thestringpuller: pete_dushenski:
i bet ascii_butugychag doesn't even play video games
pete_dushenski: ascii_butugychag: but you do realise that this is exactly, and
i do mean exactly like the guy driving la ferrari snubbing nose at guy driving 488 gtb.
funkenstein_:
I like this young man cause when he first came out he had the line, he went from asic to classic
ascii_butugychag:
i paid less for my eizos than most lusers pay for 'dell' at the shop.
ascii_butugychag: pete_dushenski: if it makes ya feel better,
i also run cruddy eizos
assbot: Logged on 19-01-2016 12:31:52; mircea_popescu: "Why four $800 monitors ? Mostly because
I’m not a poorfag" << - >> <asciilifeform> ;;later tell pete_dushenski you ~do~ realize you bought the 'poorfag' non-'colouredge' or 'radiforce' eizos, right ? << lol
i'm sure he'll be thrilled to hear.
pete_dushenski:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=19-01-2016#1376521 << it's funny, because
i AM thrilled to hear that the self-proclaimed "poor slave" dood wearing the fucking rolex submariner on his wrist like it's been there since birth thinks that my new rolex datejust is sub-par. it really cements the theory that while stan is an indentured slave, it's his own choice to be there and the door is open. so ha!
☝︎ mircea_popescu:
i dunno, laddel sent me a pile of uncleal links and got canned by freenode
mircea_popescu: "
I'm going back to the frozen north, where the pricks are hard and strong. Back to the land of the all-night stand-where the nights are six months long, where you get it in bits as hard as tin in the land where spunk is spunk - not a trickling stream of lukewarm cream, but a solid frozen chunk."
mircea_popescu: ahaha da fuck.
i'm sure washington's cook was murdered and raped.
jurov: nah,
i'm glad
i don't have to
jurov: rly? how do
i magnify the 27" 5K display to usable 40" ?
ascii_butugychag: BingoBoingo:
i don't know anybody who ever gave a fuck how big a display is in inches. pixels are what counts
ascii_butugychag: and it was definitely in a mircea_popescu article where
i saw 'choose between 'bullying' and life among monsters'
phf: yeah,
i'm lost with the terminology. my view into the lazy world is through hipster bums, like crust punks and gypsters, and they are not very precise with their terminolgoy, or else they latch on to some word and aggressively use it to self identify
phf: hermit is not the same as hobo.
i saw a hermit in india once, he lived in a cave and was well groomed within the limits of what was available to him. he smelled infinitely better then the bums that were begging in the street. for all practicle purpose american nerds are "hobos" with housing
mircea_popescu:
i will find everything everywhere, thank you very much.
punkman: ascii_butugychag:
I was looking at their website last week, pretty much confused lemming doing random shit
mircea_popescu:
i really don't blame the kids themselves, they're being raped under the guise of education, and in two major ways : one to create a wholly delusional concept of "originality" which is so badly wound up in self-contradiction it causes most brains to shut down ; the other is more pervasive, they are prevented from socialising normally in a myriad ways and as such become incapable to work with others.
punkman:
I like how retroshare provides a platform for various p2p applications,
I hope whoever builds #ba-gossipd won't make it too IRC-oriented
phf: key exchange is hard, but
i designed this easy to use automated schENALRGE YOUR PENIS NOW!!
punkman: retroshare does p2p forums with gpg, but
I wouldn't really trust the thing
mircea_popescu: phf
i was one of the very few ro writers that never migrated.
mircea_popescu:
i guess this is perhaps not obvious, tho
i'd expect it to be : the odds of recent code created by random derps not in the wot being ever recommended, used or regarded positively here are somewhere between nil and epsilon. even old, widely distributed, supposedly well reviewed code turns out pretty shitty on examination.
phf: end of 90s remnants of su intelligentsia, who grew up on stolen, non-localized hardware in the 70s and 80s, were actively arguing for translit.
i still periodically get emails from hard science types written in translit.
i remember some of those people were really mad when emacs 20 added localization support (MULE was particularly dodgy take on it).
i didn't understand what the big deal was back then though. ironically
i didn't have
gernika:
I am not. In my pre-#ba days
I worked on project that used it. a distributed market, of all things.
mircea_popescu: it's rank nonsense. "back then, people owned people, which is bad" "why ?" "
i dunno, bahamas said so"
gernika:
I suppose in the same sense as bitcoin exists.
mircea_popescu: all the world's languages can go invent their own computers.
i'll read them in the afterlife.
copypaste:
i don't think fonts should contain color data
copypaste:
i don't think so, but
i do remember that in the newest revision skintones were added, which was strange
mircea_popescu:
i thought it was resolved, and the resolution was "no more bullshit"
assbot: Logged on 19-01-2016 14:57:37; mircea_popescu: copypaste it'll take a while to implement, you'll have to pull in gpg too, and some other shit. but once done it does obsolete current chanology.
i can't conceive who or how could run a chan anymore on anything else.
thestringpuller: ;;later tell cazalla miss you mah nigga. wish
I could stay up late enough with you to chat.
adlai: ah well. "but at least
i fucking tried"
fluffypony: oh
I lie, he's not, but he's in #kovri-dev
copypaste:
I guess
I'll have to ask psi the current status of the project
copypaste: It's linked on topchan.xyz so
I just assumed it would work
mircea_popescu would actually run this thing, anyway.
i'm kind-of missing /dtng/
copypaste:
I have a friend who is now working for fluffypony and Monero on adding I2P to that coin (perhaps the work is already finished)
copypaste:
I especially like the part about no centralized hosting
mircea_popescu: copypaste it'll take a while to implement, you'll have to pull in gpg too, and some other shit. but once done it does obsolete current chanology.

☟︎ copypaste: If
I get a WoTchan working,
I'll link it here.
copypaste:
I see. It could have an option then to see posts not in your WoT
copypaste:
I've actually never even heard of a chan with forced usernames
