shinohai: Classic BingoBoingo .... I thought I remembered you getting someone to do sharpie-in-bunghole on CC one night.
imposter: how can i bitcoin
BingoBoingo: "While we can all agree that pet obesity is a problem, and obviously not healthy for our feline friends, please refrain from commenting here about it. Users have been banned, and I hate having to do it. So please don't make me."
BingoBoingo: It seems this current volatility is a delayed response to drama season. I predict moar wild swings as all this pent up drama acts on Bitcoin price after having been suppressed so long
assbot: Logged on 04-11-2015 09:47:56; copypaste: I find it odd this wasn't mentioned.
asciilifeform: from the commentz: 'Why not honeytrap the honeytrappers with hidden audio/video recording devices? They might be illegal to use without consent in your jurisdiction, but then you need not reveal the recordings until you need to, and I don’t think “Arrest him for illegally recording evidence that proves my rape allegation was fake!” would fly.'
mike_c: I am not understanding this romanian mess.. what the hell does some fire in a club have to do with the PM ☟︎
funkenstein_: trinque: I don't know who they are but i have had some luck with bitcoincloud.eu vps ☟︎
trinque: ben_vulpes: I'm glad the guy didn't just bolt ssl to the thing
ben_vulpes: i'm still kindastonished the thing never had encrypted connections.
ben_vulpes: i suspect that the operational protocol must be "one node for the network, one node for infrastructure"
asciilifeform: trinque: as for hosts, unfortunately i cannot recommend anything at all.
trinque: that one I'll restart later and see how it fares.
trinque: also, I span up bitcoind-0.5.4-beta last night and it began gagging on orphan blocks around 150k
trinque: and two, I would like to move the hosting of the thing off AWS if anyone can recommend a friendlier host ☟︎
trinque: two things there: one I think I will begin looking into the connect vs addnode tangle this weekend, as it's affecting the proper functioning of the deedbot- ☟︎
trinque: and I have given that IP via -connect which unfortunately will keep it from being of use to anyone else
trinque: asciilifeform: along the lines of the problems with your node, deedbot- now routinely gets orphans and nothing else blasted at it from various IPs, and will at times not be able to reach the node mircea_popescu gave, though I am not presently certain why
asciilifeform: i made the tradeoff with the full understanding that it was a tradeoff.
Namworld: I just wanted to let it known as I don't think that other guy advertised it around much.
ben_vulpes: Namworld: I'm sure you see the problem with statements-in-the-log-as-operating-agreement
Namworld: Not sure how the transfer would be done, but I'm sure jurov and wao will sign both payment address and amount for the offer and agreement of share ownership upon payment.
asciilifeform: but i will also note, when mircea_popescu tells us 'get the everliving fuck out of usa' he has perfectly good reasons for this.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: aside from stoolies, stooges, and other vermin, i elementarily lack the bandwidth to service the demand (and there is now again - demand)
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: partly it is because i have a personal hatred of ph0rum sp4mz0r l337 d00dz
asciilifeform: and i don't own an impregnable castle where i can leave a machine going.
asciilifeform: problem is that i fucking need a node.
asciilifeform: and i doubt that he ended up on my box by pure accident.
kakobrekla: i thought it was 1) pick up the fella 2) fuck him up
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: usg algo is, as i understand: 1) pick a fella who needs to have problems 2) steer known scum to his $thing 3) have it be established that he knows of (2) 4) pick him up as a thieves' fence ☟︎
kakobrekla: asciilifeform but does usg really need to honeytrap ? as far as i get it, there is no need for such customs.
ben_vulpes: well i'm not but damn this is going to be an expensive price discovery exercise without contracts.
pete_dushenski: kakobrekla: no worries, i thought mebbe it was sooper sekrit. but really, no finance background ?
kakobrekla: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=04-11-2015#1315891 < missed this; i had a few unrelated gigs which allowed me to be free but not rich ☝︎
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski, thestringpuller: the reason i was considering ~not~ keeping a node on my desk is the realization that, if this kind of thing carries on, it cannot really be considered a respectable node.
asciilifeform: i suppose this is a good time to point out that i fucking hate common criminals who lack the brains or elementary decency to make themselves any kind of hard target
asciilifeform: i insist on being shot for high treason rather than for somehow associating with spamming scum. ☟︎
asciilifeform: nah i'll wait till they shoot me and cart it off themselves.
asciilifeform: i don't like manually kicking folks off my node, but this screams of usg entrapment
pete_dushenski: i'd argue that this type of posturing ~does~ matter in the sense that it's a further wedge between ( ) boys and ( ) men
asciilifeform: but i'm not convinced. consider the case of chemistry
pete_dushenski: i've even seen this at usg 'green building' trade shows.
assbot: Logged on 13-10-2014 12:56:26; kakobrekla: i understood this pretty quickly so i never got employed.
pete_dushenski: i might've guessed a stint at a big bank as barrel
asciilifeform: i mean, we can infer that kakobrekla's barrel contained a computer and also whatever was required to keep his brain alive and in reasonably well-oiled condition
kakobrekla: before bitcoin, i was living in barrel because no matter what i wanst going to be a part of the slave system. you wouldnt call that living.
assbot: Logged on 04-11-2015 17:24:30; asciilifeform: i don't expect to live to eat even the very tip of that carrot.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=04-11-2015#1315803 << i used to work very near the (now - demolished, and replaced with obscenely imitative - of it - sprawl of condos) ruins of a 19th c. 'finishing school.' ☝︎
asciilifeform: i don't expect to live to eat even the very tip of that carrot. ☟︎
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: i still have my original carrot
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: you probably knew this, but i live in 'break my back to pay the bills and with the scraps of time and energy that remain, work on s.nsa' mode.
pete_dushenski: I recently discovered that MACOS 10.10.2 categorically refuses to sleep if a video is playing in Chrome.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: nah it's a perfectly logical sort of depressed. down-->'my pathetic handful of coin won't even pay a month's rent'; up-->'now there's many fewer that i could ever hope to have'
asciilifeform: trinque: i suppose it won't be done until i do it..
assbot: Logged on 04-11-2015 16:00:49; mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i have nfi what the 1st note says. can you explain the intended meaning ?
asciilifeform: the whole 'noble nodes' thing is on my plate but i elementarily lack the time right now to do any of it.
assbot: Logged on 04-11-2015 14:40:55; trinque: meanwhile I'm looking into what can be done about the node losing its connection to polite nodes, getting orphans barfed at it by impolite nodes
assbot: Logged on 04-11-2015 14:23:52; mircea_popescu: <assbot> Tennessee man charged with raping wife in church parking lot: ‘I am your husband, I can get it anytime I want’ << kinda what "the traditional marriage" institution means innit.
kakobrekla: i know you hate it.
asciilifeform: sorta like i predicted (which wasn't hard, but for some reason nobody gave a flying fuck) in my ancient article, http://www.loper-os.org/?p=132
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i have nfi what the 1st note says. can you explain the intended meaning ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i can't fucking read this gunk. /me skips to footnotes, in perhaps the first occurence this century of that once-prevalent approach
mircea_popescu: i bet they hit on chicks by schematics, too.
mircea_popescu: "Phil Schiller, Apple's longtime senior vice president of worldwide marketing5, is waiting for me when I arrive at Building 3 at the company's Infinite Loop headquarters in Cupertino, California on an unusually warm fall day." motherfucker these idiots.
mircea_popescu: if anyone was fucktarded enough to buy into the scam on its final phase, i would like to meet them.
shinohai: I know, it appears like diaz or something round here. It only pops up in there bcuz I follow qntra, et all
mircea_popescu: i'm sure teh haters are ecstatic over it.
mircea_popescu: so wait... i made a few hundred million while i was sleeping ?
trinque: meanwhile I'm looking into what can be done about the node losing its connection to polite nodes, getting orphans barfed at it by impolite nodes ☟︎
mircea_popescu: solrodar the problem with precedent and rule based systems is that you don't know what will happen until it actually happens. i would guess what would happen here would be the bet gets cancelled and so the nos get their btc back too, and perhaps the ability of bet starter to create that clause gets curtailed.
mircea_popescu: god i hate bucharest. just looking at that picture... brrrrr. but unrelatedly, if you lived behind one of those front windows, and there was a protest at night like that, wouldn't you fuck the woman for the camera ?
solrodar: punkman: in the absence of any precedent or rule for this situation, I suppose nobody has a claim on the money
mircea_popescu: mod6 yeah i think the idea is to have a temp space.
mircea_popescu: <assbot> Tennessee man charged with raping wife in church parking lot: ‘I am your husband, I can get it anytime I want’ << kinda what "the traditional marriage" institution means innit. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: soo, re mpex : the trouble has been identified, i'm pretty sure. will be fixed and then tested etc, i expect mpex back before the weekend.
shinohai: @ fluffypony yeah I just noticed mircea_popescu home country was having a chimpout wow xD
fluffypony: "32 people died (and a lot more in critical condition) because of a fire in a club last Friday. The problem is that the the local authorities allowed that club to function without even the most basic fire-precaution measures, which essentially led to the fire and that many victims (150 injured and as i said before quite a few in critical condition). With a bit of a bribe you can do anything in Romania."
fluffypony: https://i.imgur.com/gsB8bsM.jpg
mod6: anyway, if thats acceptable, I'll see what I can do about it tonight.
solrodar: I'd argue that BitBet is holding the pool in trust for the winners
solrodar: I think the only fair response would be to cancel the whole bet and refund the other side as well
shinohai: no worries, I finally stopped being lazy and fixed me ml mail to go to the correct email for btc-dev.
wyrdmantis: i see
assbot: Tennessee man charged with raping wife in church parking lot: ‘I am your husband, I can get it anytime I want’ ... ( http://bit.ly/1RuXDyd )

Namworld: I'll try and come back around.
Namworld: I have to log off for now.
copypaste: I find it odd this wasn't mentioned. ☟︎
Namworld: Is there anyone interested in buying 20% of Coinroll? If he didn't ask in here yet, I know someone who wants to do just.
mircea_popescu: "i have an idea", sez buterin, "let's print and sell eth! it's almost as good as tax and spend!"
trinque: no, and it's high time I switched to the proper client; this has been on btcd for quite a while
ben_vulpes: subject of le terror, i rewatched Swordfish last night
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i gotta ask: what in satan's green earth is a raiserist ?
felipelalli: It is what looks like when your HD crashes: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=Gj6pZ04e
felipelalli: it was unrelated. In my case the HD just crashed. I was using an old external HD :)
felipelalli: it is weird because I run an instance of testnet and normal node in the same machine and both are dead.
felipelalli: actually, I just saw right now that my node is also DEAD!! lol
trinque: I'll look into that for sure, thanks :)
trinque: felipelalli: could very well have been, though I'm going to have to have a talk with runit as to why it wasn't immediately restarted. perhaps it was running slow for a while before death
trinque: I am not yet sure why; it was accepted though, and also the transaction was sent
