BitHub: doesn't that get boring?
zefir: Goat, it can't be that easy. but well, my problem is my wife will not follow to Thailand, so i'm out for now :(
midnightmagic: nah it doesn't. ;-)
midnightmagic: He reported having 60,000 bitcoind not in his never-spend, but in his "don't sell right now" 20% holdback from mining profits.
midnightmagic: I don't even bother RMA'ing my GPU anymore. Total waste of time.
midnightmagic: "What is it?" "Don't know, every time we plug it in it keeps trying to connect to a weird IP address and port.."
midnightmagic: Bowjob: The amusing part is, people who do that simply can't compete with the long tail of people doing for "free" in their hobby time and getting the cheap tier of residential electrical costs. :)
midnightmagic: I'm fairly sure that electricity won't be the lower bound of price for some time. The first time was market reaction to the bubble crash, and lots of doofuses predicting the death of bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: i wouldn't pay 10k for a computer just because i can make 10k on a computer in 15 days
mircea_popescu: i wou;dn't pay 10k for one.
midnightmagic: Batch #2, as far as I'm aware, hasn't even fully been order-filled.
mircea_popescu: midnightmagic i didn't say it's ethical.
mircea_popescu: isn't he the guy whi discovered the chips bfl used in fpga ?
jcpham: me and my friend nick were bitching about how we don't have dropbox accounts
mircea_popescu: if you didn't get yours processed tghere was a problem with it (such as it being larger than the amt available, for instance)
jborkl: It opens the potential, so people don't have to use python or be proficient with gpg
mircea_popescu: a yeah, t osign up. you gotta send me your public key
mircea_popescu: doctor_pullfingr i don't see why you'd need an irc server
doctor_pullfingr: I don't have enough rich friends where I can convince them to spend 30 BTC per account.
Bowjob: i wonder how likely it is that by the time my avalon 2 ships, bfl still hasn't shipped?
mircea_popescu: didn't know if you knew or not
doctor_pullfingr: I think there is a ripple gateway client in the wild but to make it work with mpex seat you need the to server. I'm floating the idea for comments, I don't know for sure if this will work.
doctor_pullfingr: kakobrekla aren't we discussing the practical use of ripple?
doctor_pullfingr: i don't care if they open source the server or whatever, private licensees is fine, I just want my own server.
doctor_pullfingr: has anyone tried open transactions ious? I like that ripple idea but they don't have a server
mircea_popescu: if you don't enter the trades you're not a broker, you're a bucket shot.
smickles: just because it's in my mpex account, doesn't mean i necessarily own it. I may hold it for another who then wants to trade with a third who wants me to hold it for them as well
Namworld: Doesn't seem to be.
mircea_popescu: it won't work.
mircea_popescu: mpex is hanging by a thread, mostly because it doesn't actually need a website
mircea_popescu: BitHub o wow, marquee.. haven't seen that in a while
mircea_popescu: ciuciu couldn't afgford to retire his 50 btc debt are you kidding m,e ?
Namworld: I don't think any of these individuals have such botnet access.
mircea_popescu: and blockchain.info wallet for instance isn't all that fat.
Namworld: Infected computers don't cost much to operate.
mircea_popescu: Bowjob don't tell me about it, i aint sellin :)
Namworld: That would be assuming I could even program such a thing. I don't have the know-how to.
Namworld: But .7 wasn't really slow to start with.
Namworld: Reinstalling doesn't help.
Namworld: now it crashes, doesn't update confirmations while running and take 40 minutes to boot.
[\\\]: it shouldn't take that long
Namworld: It says perhaps i didn't sign the key. But it worked before.
Namworld: hmm, I can't decode MPEx's replies
mod6: You don't have permission to access /otps/D655A630A13E8C69 on this server.
mircea_popescu: smickles it shouldn't mention people by name cause of hilighting issue
mpexbot: i don't know much about IRC, but I'm sure your own system of IRC networks and servers could manage any load
mircea_popescu: (if anyone doens't know, davout is the frenchie that sold bitcoin to the banking system. bitcoin-central.net)
smickles: mircea_popescu: i haven't seen that
mircea_popescu: you don't read trilema enouygh, i tore them a new asshole.
mircea_popescu: well... i don't and i think the attack i've seen could actually blow them offline
mircea_popescu: this is a very heavy political issue and i won't solve it that way.
mircea_popescu: deadweasel the idea isn't to keep the "rifraf"
deadweasel: course EC2 doesn't allow IRC servers, not the free ones anyhow
deadweasel: i don't know much about IRC, but I'm sure your own system of IRC networks and servers could manage any load
deadweasel: couldn't you start an IRC channel that was invite only, pw protected, and people could trade with your bot in there?
mircea_popescu: it's not that i didn't ask for it, it's that i asked for non-it.
mircea_popescu: jurov because a. its much easier to parse and b. because the bot can't be touching random servers
smickles: basically, because mircea_popescu didn't ask for that
jurov: no i asked smickles earlier why mpexbot doesn't do whole urls
deadweasel: i'm from the south, we don't like colored coins 'round here
mircea_popescu: we haven't reached it.
mircea_popescu: i wasn;t,no
TradeFortress: either way the fee system isn't optimal
mircea_popescu: the point is that serious coders don't use magic numbers.
mircea_popescu: i don't care so much what people intend to do TradeFortress
mircea_popescu: TradeFortress days destroyed ruyles don't appply ?
TradeFortress: so you can't send 1 satoshi. must send a million 1 satoshi inputs and the size of TX will make fees kill
mircea_popescu: you can't really spend specified inputs can you
mircea_popescu: Namworld if they get to be old enough don't they become free ?
mircea_popescu: how come colored coins are spendable but satoshi aren't ? isn't this exactly the same thing ?
Namworld: I don't want to read 1 billion forum posts and stupidities just to find if Erik ever considered/commented
Namworld: If you don't win, don't reply with a 1 satoshi transaction
mircea_popescu: i didn't get that impression.
Namworld: Can't Erik remove those? I don't see much point anyway. You can check your lucky number regardless... If you don't win, don't confirm by sending 1 satoshi?
BitHub: bitcoin isn't a dictatorship?
jurov: but twatter wouldn't be bad... if they had sane interface
Namworld: I'd prefer if you didn't...
maximian: anyone who isn't a nervous nelly knows that it was just a temporary issue
mircea_popescu: ya. charge and don't deliver
OneMiner: I don't hold their views against them. The details do matter. Maybe it's the need for sleep but I can sympathize to a degree.
mircea_popescu: if it actually was solvable that way therer wouldn't be all the whining.
mircea_popescu: or in other words, the president don't have that authority.
OneMiner: It's all the anarchists railing about the injustice (nay TYRANNY) of the concept that the blockchain shouldn't contain an unlimited amount of garbage.
mircea_popescu: that such nonsense would require throwing away the edges doesn't worry them : they don't know what those are anyway
deadweasel: yeah, i don't know. I have no solutions. just shrinking asset value.
mircea_popescu: it wouldn't be trustworthy.
Namworld: I don't know about that.
BitHub: it wouldn't be that hard to get s.dice shut down
deadweasel: real people, can't get around that
deadweasel: i had some jah, was good, but I can't get rid of these sdice. bought at .55 sold at 75, then bought back in at .6 cos I'm still learning, that's why
maximian: I wouldn't be so sure about that. S.dice is more than just a dice game, it's a brand
mircea_popescu: Rick__ the price hasn't appreciably changed since trade has been locked for the past ~12 hours
mircea_popescu: BitHub not really an api but still, i don't think so, it's all json after all.
mircea_popescu: worst case scenario just moved to "if 10 Gb pipe isn't enough to stop ddos, we just trade via mpexbot"
mircea_popescu: ok so, im closing the ordering now, because i don't want inconsistencies. this is all testnet stuff.
smickles: for watever reason mpexbot's pro pastebin feature of posting >25 posts per day hasn't been enabled yet
mod6: na, gotta be able to pick the right tool for the job... but that doesn't always mean that the guy will make the best choice
BingoBongo: Another point for SD over most miners, BitcoinJ isn't as poorly coded as BitcoinD
mircea_popescu: im starting to think one or several idiots can't code
mircea_popescu: they have been bleeding market share month by month by month. by now i wouldn't even bet they do a third.
