pankkake: I don't remember wether it was a card or a hard drive
jurov: hm, i don't have good experiences with folks with fulltime jobs
jurov: the thing i think would help most, would be to offer margin.. but i don't feel like going into such alone and did not find anyone suitable yet
mike_c: not to keep sticking my nose in when you keep asking TaT, but i don't think more volume should be a goal.
diametric: i don't think he has a choice
asciilifeform: i gotta say, the fuckwits don't bother me (except on the rare occasions they show up to my door, spamming)
mike_c: i don't see angels stopping by argentina with golden messages from aliens
diametric: mircea_popescu: i don't like them.
mike_c: i don't know what pankkake feeds that penguin.
mircea_popescu: well no, i don';t have one. i do have the habit of asking unpleasant questions.
pankkake: I don't think the fee system is considered fixed for now. it is extremely cheap to register something right now
mdev: :) yeah I don't know, spammers can be pretty crafty he's been banned from #bitcoin quite a bit, and keeps showing back up
mircea_popescu: i imagine they would prefer you don't take dollars out, however. not sure why you'd want to, but anyway.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: ^ mircea_popescu, chetty: can you comment? << yes i can comment. i carried a huge stack of bills inside, it's not that they allowed it, it's that they don't evenm know, cause they couldn't be bothered to find out.
mircea_popescu: sometimes i suspect you don't understand what thinking actually is.
mike_c: benkay: link? i don't see dedicated hetzner's for less than $800 a year
pankkake: Shakespeare: I don't have the knowledge of windows compiles
benkay: <mircea_popescu> davout: drinking aero-pressed espresso in a mongodb mug << let me ruin your day for you. coffee in argentina ? comes PRE SWEET$ENED. and i don't even mean the bags. i mean the MOTHERFUCKING BEANS;. they sugar-cook them. << i only ever found 1 acceptable cup in bsas
fluffypony: ThickAsThieves: I don't have a problem with the fees, I have a problem with them suddenly deciding to charge the fees
mircea_popescu: i wonder if we'll see a draghi hour. (named after "earth hour", where people supposedly don't use any energy for a whole hour once a year, the draghi hour is an hour where nobody buys anything whatsoever. it results from inflationary price shocks, supply side inflationary blockage and people being generally poor and justifiably hopeless)
mircea_popescu: i don't actually drink much coffee
Apocalyptic: xmj, I don't believe they have annouced these LTROs earlier
mircea_popescu: fluffypony, i don't recall what it costs, but five bux a liter or somesuch
mircea_popescu: jurov: actually, despite being a sysadmin with 8 or so year practice and i avoid messing with physical hw whenever i can. so what, kill me. << i don't think we kill people for their preferences here.
pankkake: I don't even try to argue about diets with girls anymore. I figure they just like to be hungry for a few weeks and then eat shit again
mircea_popescu: davout: drinking aero-pressed espresso in a mongodb mug << let me ruin your day for you. coffee in argentina ? comes PRE SWEET$ENED. and i don't even mean the bags. i mean the MOTHERFUCKING BEANS;. they sugar-cook them.
mircea_popescu: i don't think mike gets nearly enough customer support queries.
pankkake: I don't understand what that means at all
mircea_popescu: i don't do it personally, and the mods just get to have fun. i hold no particular audit of their success. i guess some try to beat the game or w/e, i personally don't care, and that's where the incentive structure starts.
dub: 'i don't know how I can prove I was a virgin' - posting on reddit, uh
mircea_popescu: Naphex, i don't really perceive the benefit.
mircea_popescu: moiety: ok i'll try and work it in << lol don't let these goons talk you into absolutely anything. you're a nice girl, but they need their spanking
fluffypony: I don't get it
Naphex: i don't see much interest in xrp anyway and all the news i bet didn't help
Naphex: i don't care about ripple, but kept noticing it and wondered if they pump the volume on exchanges that accept XRP or what
mircea_popescu: a) it myust be 1024 wide ; b) i don't own the copyright
Naphex: i wonder all the people who think you don't exist or are some anon troll, who do they think you place on the header pictures?:)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, you don't have enough experience to recognise a symbian once it's been used by a progressive, i take it ?
danielpbarron: <+mike_c> hehe. i think we are talking about limits on freedom. you think people should be free to be racist/homophobic. i'm not sure i agree. << you think people should be free to commit acts of sodomy; I am *sure* I don't agree. Which one of our sensibilities is more valuable? My solution is: you enforce your anti-racist w/e on your property, and I'll enforce my anti-homo w/e on mine.
mircea_popescu: for that matter, am i the only one old enough to remember the reason we don't use linode ?
mircea_popescu: mike_c, i told them they suck while there, too. you don;t know about it because i told THEM
mircea_popescu: mike_c, i dunno dood, maybe you don't like the ingredients that have to be used to make it be black.
Naphex: i don't
danielpbarron: mike_c, I am pro-slavery and I don't argue it from a racial point of view
danielpbarron: just to clarify, I don't have a problem with blacks, but so what? if you don't like that someone hates blacks then don't do business with them
mike_c: meh, i don't think it works irl. just make the guy a cake. wtf does the baker care? you don't go to hell for making gay cakes.
benkay: <mircea_popescu> im gonna consider sponsoring some people i don't know, because i have no friends and don't know anybody. // this is the same problem i have with figuring out which trade shows to attend. i can't find a pattern to which ones produce leads, so i have to make a bunch of mistakes and learn to sniff out the frauds myself.
princessnell: i think that's right but i unfortunately don't think that's the approach that us law schools take. anyways i deal a lot with law through economics so i can have it all.
mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete: mike_c: didn't know that about altcoin… i don't know why i thought it was a costlier project << nah, thickasthieves was running lean at the time :D
moiety: i don't even know how you are still sane mircea_popescu, moving one person and two cats with very little stuff is.. well, I've had enough by this point lol
mircea_popescu: i don't even know moiety. still working at having everything up and running, moving an entire cc across the continents is an involved task
artifexd: I looked at that and I dismissed it for some reason that I don't recall. That was prior to the current release though so I shall look again.
artifexd: It is hard to find (as in I couldn't) an easy way to do gpg email in gmail. There used to be plugins but they just don't last/work.
pankkake: and I don't know how
mircea_popescu: im gonna consider sponsoring some people i don't know, because i have no friends and don't know anybody.
davout: i keep raging about it each time i use a windows comp, and i don't use gui when i use linux
dub: I don't need unix at my end terminal and its only a couple of clicks away
dub: thats not just idle fanboy hatred either, they have a lot of mobile handsets around but beyond a few music heads (who suffer extreme lock-in) I don't know any actual users
Naphex: <+davout> Naphex: i don't think splitting apps would make it less vulnerable, on the contrary, having only one attack surface is easier to manage <<
Naphex: but i don't use servlets or other middleware, so there's that.
davout: Naphex: i don't think splitting apps would make it less vulnerable, on the contrary, having only one attack surface is easier to manage
nubbins`: just so we're clear, i don't sit on a drum throne all day
decimation: it appers the google js crypto supports djb's 255 19 curve, I don't know javascript well enough to figure out what is set for the default
BingoBoingo: I don't know for sure
nubbins`: but i don't trust you D:
moiety: BingoBoingo: not really, I don't think thailand for a fortnight, hopping from aircon to aircon counts lol
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i don't really get the fixation with 'physical bitcoins.' care to try explaining ?
BingoBoingo: moiety: Tell them you are looking forward to football this season and finish with a chant of M-I-Z. They should respond with Z-O-U. If they don't offer that response it is a reportable offense.
mike_c: i don't know why everyone is so worried about women in bitcoin. the number of foreigners in bitcoin seems like a much bigger problem.
chetty: well I don't make an issue of it, its not relevant
mike_c: i don't think you are.
mike_c: well, i don't need anything. just saying there is arbitrage available between havelock smg passthrough and mpex.
fluffypony: I think it's a great idea - your private key is made from your fingerprint. That way if you don't put your finger down *just* right you get a whole new privkey and can't access the old one till you figure out how you put your finger down previously
bitcoinpete: mike_c: didn't know that about altcoin… i don't know why i thought it was a costlier project
bitcoinpete: i don't think silbert could be any dumber: https://twitter.com/barrysilbert/status/473822123085950976
Naphex: i don't get most of the arguments anyway
mircea_popescu: i dunno why you think you're entitled to put forth that nonsense in the company of adults, but don't.
mircea_popescu: i don't have a girlfriend.
mircea_popescu: i don't tend to spy on allies (unlike the us, let it be pointed out) and so i guess that's one thing to look forward to once he's extradited
mircea_popescu: dub: im struggling with how this person is profiting from all this manip^HHHrket making << i don't see how it could be a single person, it makes no sense
pankkake: though yes I don't use Gentoo on VPSes
jurov: because they don't offer the one i want?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: why would you phrase it that stupidly << the answer is, because i haven't the titanic brain that would be needed to come up with a 'smart' way to phrase it. so generally i don't bring the subject up, unless asked first. 'basic research' is a fundamentally... unreasonable proposition from the ROI standpoint. i'm not particularly good at justifying unreasonable things.
mircea_popescu: nubbins`: they see it as "bitcoin isn't ready for apple" << they're right, too. i don't have a mpoe-pr large enough to swat all the fucktarded us consumers thinking they'r eentitled to shit because their govt paid me taxes or something
Naphex: i don't doubt they exist
mike_c: Naphex: mtgox would have managed to suck in any language. i just feel bad for good programmers who somehow have ended up using php. probably the same as asciilifeform feels for all of us that don't use lisp.
benkay: jvm issues are unless i miss my read (which is possible and do correct me plz) along the lines of 'don't let people have access to your box and don't run java as a consumer'
benkay: which i guess some people don't think about?
benkay: <Mats_cd03> benkay: http://www.lispcast.com/clojure-web-security // i read that quite a while ago. a few kinda boil down to 'don't be retarded'.
mircea_popescu: translation : "everyone else should put some work into making sure i don';t need to put any work or thought into doing anything i feel like doingt"
mircea_popescu: nubbins`: so essentially it's like a chick with a bunch of piercings << dude that\s tje best description of clojure i ever heard, and you don't even code.
thestringpuller: then I felt a bit sad that humans can be so stupid they don't know they're stupid.
pankkake: and I don't think anyone could really manage to steal and replace the unencrypted data
danielpbarron: well they definitely shouldn't get a -1; I don't trust the first guy, so why would I trust his negative ratings?
assbot: Figs comments on CMV: if I know Perl or Python, I don't need to learn bash.
pankkake: I don't have any clear text backup
mircea_popescu: i am literally getting a billion dollar idea a day just walking down the fucking street and noticing that wait, they actually don't have x ? bwahahahaha etc.
pankkake: ;;later tell mircea_popescu storing your only two backups in the same city is no doubt risky, but still it's unlikely that you manage to salvage none if case of a natural disaster. one of the reasons I don't think paper is the ultimate backup though
asciilifeform: 'doctor it hurts when i do that. -- don't do that.' ☟︎
asciilifeform: joecool: i don't generate keys on card << still has rng, for signature nonces.
