mircea_popescu: thestringpuller the whole point is that if i want to pay deedbot 100 satoshi for whatever, i'd rather have this as an offchain txn than as a blockchain spam tx
mircea_popescu: moreover, nobody said the deedbot wallet is to be restricted to micropayments. that's obviously the angle to solve, from an engineering pov ; but to then on that infer that it is ONLY for such is silly.
mircea_popescu: anyway. for one thing - transaction fees are micropayments ; like it or not, that's what they are, in the exact sense contemplated for deedbot.
mircea_popescu: but in any case the same tongue that licked tcp/ip also licked all of washington dc, not to mention etc.
mircea_popescu: you'd expect he'd be unable to get out of bed. i guess there's missing ingredients in the formula.
mircea_popescu: it's a wonder actually, that alf's personal antigens of 1.(the usg is in all things - in his personal flavour of this) + 2.(if you lick my lunch i will starve today) don't completely preclude any action whatsoever.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: amusingly enough, this is exactly work hardening for social groups ; and for that matter how parties are born.
mircea_popescu: seems a significant chunk of disputes arise from misapprehension rather than a genuine difference of opinion an' what's worse, seems to me the trend is upwards.
mircea_popescu: what the fuck's one to do ? there's a major difference between "all these people running around blathering about how bitcoin will change the world of starbucks are idiots" and "micropayments are evil". even though at the time a bunch of idiots run around like they run the place, the difference is negligible.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: sure ; but i don't think trinque was proposing the purpose of bitcoin is micropayments.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform can you explain your problem with micropayments any more articulately than "i don't understand this" ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: anyway. argentina is a fine place for it, more derpy posers per square mile here than almost anywhere in the world.
mircea_popescu: trinque soonish we'll end up with a sort of space sim, "you dock to station trinque, here's what's available"
mircea_popescu: no rule that there can only be one, however ; on the contrary.
mircea_popescu: it's supposed to keep a balance for you and make payments. exactly same mechanics as rating, which is how i dumped on trinque.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: this is shockingly useful, like those corner ramps disabled people wanted put in and then everyone just loved them
mircea_popescu: trinque if / when you implement the wallet thing you can even charge for this. i'd pay!
mircea_popescu: deedbot got !!, jhvh1 got !~ and further bots will get further of these until we run out and move on to #? etc.
mircea_popescu: change a111 's control sequences whatever they may be currently to !# only please.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo "In a twist of irony sure not lost to Qntra readers" ?
mircea_popescu: eh, considering where you live, it's prolly in the tap water by now
mircea_popescu: swallowing cufflinks accidentally not on the castor oil list of bad girl behaviours
mircea_popescu had girl swallow his cufflink (accidentally!), took her earrings in restitution. discovered that he kinda likes earring cufflinks.
mircea_popescu: jurov you might have noticed it's not even in the contact list anymore.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i'm not using a rss-tron anymore ; bots ruined me for it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform possibly more often as time goes by ; because the problem of sorting things by topics is becoming more pressing.
mircea_popescu: "kyle go clean your room this instant!" "sorry mom, i... i... i malloc'd my hands and i think there were some double free's in there or something!"
mircea_popescu cranks trilema, discovers no stan replies, is baffled by this development.
mircea_popescu: did i drop the "prionic" alt-explanation in log or no ? i... can't recall ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, think of all the great stuff blockchain technologies allows, guise! you could have like, a satoshi dice based aviator's club, whereby the men all put their house keys in a pile and the women pick from there as previously, BUT whether the dick works or not is now blockchain lottery based!
mircea_popescu: from what i've seen, the porous stuff and the porous stuff only clogs.
mircea_popescu: btw jurov mind protesting the heteronormative pronz a little bit, i need something to counterbalance alf!
