mircea_popescu: not a bad idea actually. guaranteed to de-"anonymise" at least a few
mircea_popescu: i suppose in its own terms it makes sense, a sort of solipsistic revolt of the anal child. nevertheless... let jesus save them or whatever, we're busy.
mircea_popescu: well - it's what it is. there's a dedicated loafer community out there, adamant on "i shall not be useful". best filter them out asap.
mircea_popescu: oh and mod6 - suppose i want to add the observation that really, the wallet functionality and the "caching transactions" functionality should be separated in bitcoin - there's no conceivable reason to store the latter in the former for instance. how would i go about adding this to the bitcoin tickets ? ask you ? do something myslef ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: stuff you don't feel like writing out in 1k words, interactive etc has a place. moreover, that place drives like a third or more of the longer pieces. it's a match made in heaven.
mircea_popescu: and fuck do i love this dual format omfg. how did people irc pre blogs ? how do people blog w/o irc ? i guess they use twitter... but shit, it doesn't compare.
mircea_popescu: which, really, === laptops, for what "laptop" means today.
mircea_popescu: i suppose their respective gatherings are the sum total of such difference : less clothing, more sunshine and more perfume where the girlies gather. more armpit stains and bad shirts and neon lighting where the boys gather.
mircea_popescu: for all the pretense, the difference between these demos is vanishingly small if at all present.
mircea_popescu: well, they're sorta like the girls watching tv hoping to one day grow up into oprah through the mediation of being rap video sluts. except they're boys, and they read reddit, and hope to one day "make a company that sells for billions".
mircea_popescu: eh linkedin is the entrepreneur world like livejournal is the poet world.
mircea_popescu: a government recently installed, of course, through a push for "human rights" and "democracy", widely "embraced". ie, first destroy the state, then destroy the society, then it's time to walmart up.
mircea_popescu: the funny part being, of course, that nobody is pushing to "crack down on corruption" when it actually happens, ie, here. no, "cracking down on corruption" is Reich-speech for what happens in a recently conquered land, to destroy its local elite. that's what's meant when you say random noplace government harping about how they'll crack down on imaginary "corruption".
mircea_popescu: but if you want to know how the usg corrupt class siphons the public hreasury - look no further. that's the system, "acquisitions", government-mandated, like facebook buying some derpy app for $random_sum, and so on. "we gave you free money, now you give it back" goes the story.
mircea_popescu: unlike whatever random thug that got killed dealing and started "riots", and who for no reason became "representative" of imaginary "social issues" - the story here, if deliberately blacked out, is nevertheless very representative. that schmuck stands, pars pro toto, for EVERYONE EVER in fiat lands.
mircea_popescu: PeterL not even sure that's possible - a question for trinque
mircea_popescu: (obviously, the hallucinated "black as non-white" she imagines has little to do with anything found in nature, but hey, sucks to be a black dude with a human sized penis.)
mircea_popescu: girl's desire to be black owned is not only perfectly understandable in that context, but rationally mandatory. what the fuck is she to do ?if she's got any life whatsoever left in her coils, what the everloving fuck is she to do, nurse eric ?
mircea_popescu: anyway : white fellow married a woman older than himself, impregnated her at the merry age of 30, and produced a useless shithead, which opted out just by the time "society" was done pumping half a mil in his sorry loser ass.
mircea_popescu: do you know it BingoBoingo ? the one describing a pimp with two fat women ; a guy with a hot chick fucking her in the bathroom ; and other things.
mircea_popescu: (okemos high school, 2800 jolly road, meridian charter township, mi 48864)
mircea_popescu: i suppose this is as good a plan as it gets in the context.
mircea_popescu: prolly should also be pointed out that atm the design is yet the consistency of pudding.
mircea_popescu: more importantly, "order" is not clearly a physical entity. all you have is observers.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i don't think ips were ever seriously considered as identity.
mircea_popescu: (if you mean, in gossipd. if you mean in general... ouf, complicated issue.)
mircea_popescu: you ever got to read the many discussions re gossipd in log ? this part is there.
mircea_popescu: sure, but merely "chaning" the key is not good enough. if it signs it... they're there.
mircea_popescu: there's one definition of pfs, and that is, later keys being compromised does not show anything about earlier keys.
mircea_popescu: anyway, to understand each other : if M are messages signed by K[eys], then if on the basis of M2 you can prove that indeed K1 was used for M1 then your system is not pfs, and K aren't ephemeral.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: otr is ~broken, i wouldn't want it as an example for functional pfs.
mircea_popescu: the authority of an ephemeral key must be a) contextual and b) not reconstructable.
mircea_popescu: not entirely clear what the benefit of ~signing~ said ephemeral keys is however
☟︎ mircea_popescu: in other news, "whosoever withdraws from stupidity thereby becomes its avant-garde."
mircea_popescu: prolly get a million an' a half or some shit for them, too.
mircea_popescu: bring a friend, sit in for the filming of any sex scene during the season.
mircea_popescu: so here's what i'd do if i were actually running any of the studios :
mircea_popescu: (the cameras were installed in the first place by old woman wanting to know wtf her hens are so fucking noisy at night)
mircea_popescu: not like i'm doing anything ; there's the antispam thing that's documented in an article ; also the xml-rpc hardening idem documented. that's about it. haven't touched any of it in years.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo trilema works ok with trackbacks, but i guess it's one of the few.
mircea_popescu: incididentally BingoBoingo : does qntra not publish trackbacks or just didn't get ?
mircea_popescu: i wonder if the defeated hillary will sue trump for "allienation of affection" lmao
mircea_popescu: anyway, the "looking into" thing is pure ridiculous. the usual fare of gawker, "throw shit at the wall because anyone reading is too stupid to distinguish their mouth and asshole anyway"
mircea_popescu: except that works when i do it, and who the fuck is gawker.
mircea_popescu: more like a "we own this land and fuck you" sorta argument, "it's illegal for you to help the people we don't like".
mircea_popescu: "tortious interference" and "racketeering", get a load of that.
mircea_popescu would much prefer a davout -run liquidation. at least it'd establish the item's true value. which, i suspect, is somewhere south of 80 btc.
mircea_popescu: you can't sue someone FOR THAT roflmao. what's these shits imagine, that they're in power or something ?
mircea_popescu: i suspect it's how the original drawings were inspired actually.
