copypaste: i'm not saying their beliefs are accurate, but inaccurate beliefs held dearly still affect their actions
copypaste: i wouldn't, but plenty of people would. the average person in the philippines views foreigners as being smart and better educated than them
assbot: Logged on 08-01-2016 13:01:34; mircea_popescu: anyway, i vaguely recall some testing the waters re how urls are evil and hurt the eyes of the moo moos.

mircea_popescu: yes, but when i hire women to be women, as opposed to do any actual job, i have strict standards. hence the "over 180 cm tall, exactly 19 bmi, etc"
mircea_popescu: i doubt the notion went away.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i vaguely recall some testing the waters re how urls are evil and hurt the eyes of the moo moos. ☟︎

copypaste: i got mine to meet an online friend i'd had since i was a small child
copypaste: i haven't been in the USA since 2014 though
copypaste: so i just never got the other one
copypaste: yes, i happened to have recieved the passport before the other one
copypaste: you can get a "non drivers driver license" (real name), but the line was so long and i already had a passport
copypaste: but due to my disability, i do not drive
copypaste: actually, once i got mine i started using it as an identification document, which would lead to weird looks
copypaste: i see.
asciilifeform: i, for instance, never got a ru passport.
assbot: Logged on 08-01-2016 11:26:48; copypaste: i have a feeling this will soon happen on a massive scale to Americans, when the USG goes under
copypaste: i come close
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: that was a question. can ~i~ walk in with a few $k and get it.
asciilifeform: copypaste: yeah that's what i thought
asciilifeform: that ~mircea_popescu~ can get one 'for a few grand', i can readily believe
assbot: Logged on 08-01-2016 04:14:58; punkman: ben_vulpes: some kind of aslr? I think we had a thread about it, but can't find it now
copypaste: as far as i know, at least
asciilifeform: i can easily believe that he has descended into... this
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i used to like szabo a lot more. but omfg, then i read some of his stuff.
asciilifeform: 'Is was Wednesday, March 26, 2014. It was a cold winter outside, but not inside an old building of the Princeton university campus. The room, full of people, was warm. I was standing in front of some of the brightest minds in Bitcoin: Andresen, Bonneau, Eyal, Maxwell, Miller, Gün Sirer, Szabo, Todd and Zooko, to name only a few. My talk was about “SPV Mining”...' ☟︎
copypaste: so, i would like to acquire another citizenship before that happens :D
copypaste: i have a feeling this will soon happen on a massive scale to Americans, when the USG goes under ☟︎
mircea_popescu: lol funny thing : while i was in costa rica i was considering going to new zealand. went to british consulate that handled the whole slew of dominions, woman told me i need a visa. was all wtf'd, wrote to the ro exterior minister at the time (young guy from my party) going wtf. the VERY NEXT DAY it was announced the visa requirement was mutually dropped.
copypaste: when people ask which country i am from anad they are strangers, I say Canada
copypaste: eh, i would say that the US passport is by far the worst
mircea_popescu: i imagine.
mircea_popescu: yeah. lulziest case of the hare and the turtle ever. all my life that i can remember romanians thought it's the worst
mircea_popescu: i'm romanian, i never gave a shit.
copypaste: i fail to see how it increases security at all
copypaste: i want to renounce my passport before the USG goes under because such event, which i think will happen in my lifetime, will make me stateless
mircea_popescu: this, from what i hear, should be no change from the fillipines.
copypaste: i want another passport
punkman: I remember reading that gcc might optimize that away too
ben_vulpes: so this gathering nausea in the pit of my stomach when i read through implement_randomize_stack is perhaps an intuitive clue
punkman: ben_vulpes: some kind of aslr? I think we had a thread about it, but can't find it now ☟︎
ben_vulpes: http://btc.yt/lxr/satoshi/source/src/util.h#0449 << i'm 12 and what is this?
punkman: or do the fatties think "I look just like those Dove girls"
BingoBoingo: Conspiracy https://i.imgur.com/3bNozC0.jpg
punkman: so I woke up and my irc monitor was dead, any obvious things to look at when I open it up?
asciilifeform: can't even recall where i posted it.
asciilifeform: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=45879.msg963299#msg963299 << lulzy. i took this photo in.. '07??
ben_vulpes: generally speaking i am but a mere technician; can follow proofs and understand their implications for bolt patterns and circuit design, but more interested in...bolting things together and making circuits than proving novelty.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: no, i have never done any work with theorem provers.
assbot: I haven't understood a single word you've said since I met you, not one single word.
BingoBoingo: Of all the ways that could go wrong, I wonder if there's some small, but existing chance that could make the big detonation
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, i remember the enchanted time of the 80s when gasoline shortages and rationing + the universal theft of "accomplished socialism" meant all the workers at the paints factory ran their cars on stolen raw toluene.
mircea_popescu: "I liked trilema better when it had a paywall (and I couldn't read it for lack of trilema credits)."
mircea_popescu: i suppose in a sense i offered wallet services o.O
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i didn't think the usa even had anything.
mircea_popescu: nitwitty seamstresses. "oh, i put a fig leaf on david". well... hopefully vlad the impaler puts a little something up your tightest hole.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=07-01-2016#1362563 << it is provably impossible in the general case, which (i think) everybody knows. but did ben_vulpes miss the ada threads ? you can do it for particular programs. just, the usefulness is questionable imho. ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 07-01-2016 22:49:53; ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=07-01-2016#1361807 << i had mega-fun with this when playing around with a sql schema for the blockchain
asciilifeform: (it makes no practical difference, the patch is cosmetic and i won't be surprised if it is not considered for inclusion in a release)
assbot: Logged on 07-01-2016 13:24:03; mircea_popescu: incidentally asciilifeform can i has nsa letter ?
assbot: Logged on 07-01-2016 00:50:36; asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=07-01-2016#1361822 << lulzily i just put in a long hard day laying the foundations of a provably-correct $boringwidget for $censoredrichfolks

pete_dushenski: i can probably handle it from here
mircea_popescu: the jew explains : one sabbath day, i was going down the street and lo! there was a hundred dollars on the ground.
mircea_popescu: except his fucking owner wouldn\t sell it no matter what. so i prayed to the prophet, that i may not fall into sin for this horse. so allah intervened, the horse dropped dead and all was well.
mircea_popescu: muslim goes : well, i saw this great horse. best horse i've ever seen.
mod6: been trying to follow up with a whole bunch of things from here actually. including this tx thing from yesterday. i've been going through the raw txs and drawing diagrams myself.
mod6: no, i've never seen anything like that. have stopped R.I. (sometimes for weeks at a time) then restarted without issue, lots of times. just been following along in here. just was curious.
BingoBoingo: Though that is a sweet hatchet, I dun have a titanium one
diametric: I'm guessing speculation related to the chinese market crash.
Xplosionist: And bitcoin is sharply up today, I notice. This is a good thing.
Xplosionist: mircea_popescu thanks. I'd just rather not have to wait a month plus.
diametric: at some point i'll sit down and figure out all the people i should jerk off in wot.
Xplosionist: So I just wanted to try that, so I can start the 48 hour timer on getting my reward for blind devotion. ;-)
Xplosionist: (I don't think anyone expects them to beat the packers this weekend, but I kinda hope it might happen)
diametric: I see, so no matter what, the Redskins can only lose one more game, putting them at 9 wins, 8 losses, still making the bet resolve to yes. So theres no point in waiting until after the superbowl to resolve it?
ascii_butugychag: interesting. unfortunately i don't know enough re: the sport to comment
Xplosionist: (which is hard to do I must admit)
Xplosionist: Mostly I wanted voice for a bit to ask about getting a bitbet resolved early.
BingoBoingo: <jurov> whether "stratum" protocol fits in head for easy control, that's another question. << A lot of this. I'm imagining and "electrum" that isn't actually electrum. i.e. not a big ball of whatever that desperately wants to advertise to the world exactly what it is. basically a different better database client setup. May break down and learn to make code enough to shit one out by 2030.
jurov: i have an old account, unused for ~2 years, don't you want it?
shinohai: Indeed. When I haz enough forum rank I'll even make a trb signature xD
mircea_popescu: i'm a light sleeper :D
shinohai: I like to be awoken with a good hummer >.>
mircea_popescu: the longest serving slavegirl is gonna celebrate decade mark soon, i attest the experience's been nothing short of pleasant.
shinohai: I was already married once, do not wish to repeat.
shinohai: If no one else is doing it I will keep posting updates to the bitcointalk thread with mah shiny new account.
Chesterly: i'm fine with being patient so long as i'm informed about the situation
shinohai: ^ see? I haz learned the value of patience. BitBet users not so much.
shinohai: 4329 blocks to go. I might have an actual trb node by next week.
mircea_popescu: incidentally asciilifeform can i has nsa letter ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: "can i be your partner ?" etc. i pass along a webchat linl, problem solved.
mircea_popescu: jurov nah, let them give their own measure. i very much appreciate the exceptional filtering b-a provides for "hey man where could i talk to you i have an important business proposal".
