trinque: 10 billion's not
a bad high score.
trinque: in this case it actually sounds more like
a pyramid scheme
trinque: Hello. My name is Jean,
a manager of MMM Philippines, showing you my GH in the amount of P33,000. Thank you my donors and thank you MMM. Indeed its
a great privilege to be part of this wonderful community. << ey asciilifeform, I found your filipinos
mircea_popescu: basically what is this,
a sort of trying to herd retards to do web stuff ?
trinque: it's
a good word, 'tis true
trinque: "Now, every participant (firstly of the Bitcoin Republic, and then of the whole MMM) will be daily offered
a simple web-task related to the activities in the social networks and forums that generate extra traffic to the MMM website." <<
http://mmmglobal.org/news/mmm_extra-3139.html mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> it is
a solution to 'real people and spamming scum try to occupy limited space together' << yes, but the "free market" solution is "make people solve it on their own cpu" whereas you propose "solve it for other people on my own cpu". yes, if we can limit the market we don't need it to be free. but if we could make it free we wouldn't need to limit it.
phf: huh, he was "active in bitcoin" for
a bit, mmm was silver member in phoundation before getting kicked out, he started mmmcoin that was since killed, there's
a blog post about bitcoin on his blog where he says "it's easy to take over bitcoin you just need couple of trillion u.s. dollars"
mircea_popescu: for that matter - i don't even have any objections, which is more of
a journalistic achievement than
a pulizer in each hand.
mircea_popescu: certainly
a lot better than the last time i read an article on zero hedge.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's
a review of the "best possible construction"./
mircea_popescu: "This is probably the first large scale opportunity to see whether unrestricted market forces actually do optimize
a supply curve" << major point incidentally.
mod6: let me know if you validate further, mechanically, whenever you get
a chance.
mircea_popescu: in general, the sure mark of
a stupid yet pretentious student is, their desire to talk to the prof "privately".
mircea_popescu: fwiw, my entire intel thing is fundamentally
a fork off ib intel.
mircea_popescu: (the "retail bank" where you go talk to
a person you don't know that doesnty know you is really no different from mcdonalds "cuisine". irl, banks work
a lot more like tailors)
mircea_popescu: Despite the fervor in the Bitcoin community, the odds are against Bitcoin XT. "This is not the first attempt to create
a better Bitcoin, but I believe Bitcoin has such critical mass of resources devoted to it that it is unlikely anybody would abandon it for an incremental improvement,"says Gil Luria, an analyst at Wedbush Securities. "None has gotten much traction."
mircea_popescu: seriously, i can buy
a cpu that outpuits cpu cycles at 500
a second over five years for 500 bucks
mircea_popescu: so they got butthurt, and are prosecuting
a local that was involved in their rape, they think.
mircea_popescu: from something that used to be
a world power and
a major empire.
mircea_popescu: the slovaks are incompetent fuckwits. this, because there's so few of them it's cheaper to pretend like they're
a country than to seek someone else's administration.
assbot: Logged on 23-08-2015 00:32:28; mircea_popescu: punkman yes of course. just as soon as there's observable value everywhere
a horde of shitheads with spoons are moving towards it.
assbot: Logged on 22-08-2015 21:23:49; mircea_popescu: there isn't
a way for peasant to OWN picasso
funkenstein_: Hi Vexual. I saw
a massive black bear today chillin' on side of the road
funkenstein_ trying to catch up: genesis vpatches tested match (apart
a few deletions) 0.4.3 release
mircea_popescu: really, reddit as
a concentration camp for shitheads is not nearly going far enough.
mircea_popescu: yes, but there's
a difference between statistics and redditart say-so.
fluffypony: mircea_popescu you want to hear
a funny story
mircea_popescu: if anyone's bored, here's
a simple job : take all reddit accounts > 1 year old that are in favour of xt, count the ones who weren't also active in some other historically failed fork attempt.
mats: i am very hesitant to code sig verification in
a standalone context but this seems to be the best play here...
davout: with
a keyring, but no private key at all, gpg reports signature correctness and short ID
mats: welp, time to smash
a keyboard out back
davout: mats: prolly because it relies on you having
a keyring to which it associates trust levels for private keys
mats: all the libraries i've read require
a private subkey
mats: this doesn't seem to make any sense from
a pure crypto standpoint
mats: gpg requires
a private key to do signature verification
mod6: still
a ways to go there... or maybe
a bet on QE4
mod6: the chick with 3 fingers thinks its
a good idea. and gavin says "hey, you can't do that!" to the lion. the lion says, "we WILL do that."
mod6: the fox in the red says "here's where we're going to tie you to
a chair and dunk you in the river."

a little late night inspiration: you're ugly, your one night stand will notice your fat rolls and you'll die alone. Arbys: remorse"
punkman: "Why not wash down that regrettable semen-of-the-coke-dealer taste in your mouth with

a deed in which he promised to rate certain individuals -10 should they ever appear in the WoT
trinque: this "TSA-approved lock" is
a thing?
assbot: Logged on 22-08-2015 19:13:28; mircea_popescu: ely almost entirely on expert opinion concerning the quality of the art, that is to say, is the quality of the art being examined of the quality expected of
a painting by the artist—in this case, Caravaggio.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: regarding el gran teatro, have you been to
a proper milonga yet?
pete_dushenski: jic : "I wasn’t always
a fan of your blog but you guys are really picking up your game ! Way to go !!"
pete_dushenski: but speaking of goya, after the local art gallery was revamped
a few years back, it finally snagged itself
a goya exhibit, which was my first and only exposure to the spaniard's etchings
trinque: in either case, thinking one can persuade reality otherwise is
a mental illness
pete_dushenski: sure, disease was
a thing, partly incidental, possibly intentional
pete_dushenski: 'indians should've never sucked so badly that they literally shat their skirts when they first saw
a gun'
pete_dushenski: trinque: sorta what political correctness is, in
a nutshell, y'know
mod6: Don't feel like it's
a waste of time either to create your own method to generate these vpatches and see if we come out with the same resultant hash.
mod6: This script is huge, but does quite
a bit too. I'll post it and the resulting rel1.vpatch and rel2.vpatch here in
a bit.
phf: "Normally this option is unnecessary, since patch can exam- ine the time stamps on the header to determine whether
a file should exist after patching."
mod6: dang, so close. i've basically got
a rel1.vpatch and
a rel2.vpatch all set -- but I'm seeing one strange thing... after doing the one-shot patching of either: rel1.vpatch leaves an empty 'makefile.linux-mingw' and 'qtui.h', while rel2.vpatch leaves an empty 'irc.h' and 'irc.cpp'.
ben_vulpes: does actually have
a notion of part-level constraints but only "joints"
