mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i was gonna say "why not take it back to civil war" to you, but then i realised what cw1 was.
asciilifeform: (yes, i favour 'cw1', like ww1. the latter had to wait for 'ww2', but why wait to use correct term?)
shinohai: I imagine there is an unseen strapon somewhere in that image.
asciilifeform: i'd prefer 'clean.'
mircea_popescu: i've been saying for years it's the one vulnerability.
asciilifeform: as i understand, we already have a 'bezzle' in the net - the unmetered resource, 'blank cheque,' of the mempools. as all 'meat in the sun without flies', it is a very ephemeral thing
asciilifeform: unless i misunderstand, 'fee for mempool inclusion' is... an epicycle.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> but afaik turdmeisters are already experimenting with connecting sewage pipes directly to the mempool << I think one of the earliest XT "selling points" by Hearnia was this for some SpamFunder called "Lighthouse"
mircea_popescu: anyway, i'm hearing that argument can actually be had in favour of the mempool/minerpool layered implementation.
mircea_popescu: anyway. i think that'd be actually +ev, but just a thought.
mircea_popescu: ask me more questions about what this guy did in his basement. i enjoy the feelings of impotent frustration.
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: what i was trying to get across earlier is that the very concept of 'mempool spam' is presently undefined
mircea_popescu: so no, jwh "i just want to contribute" doth not work irl.
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: i don't have a specific proposal except that the machine ~must not go down~
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i did say 'spamatronic' - i.e. search engine crud.
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: this i understand. my asking is what are you proposing before machine goes down?
mircea_popescu: i think you're not particularly qualified to make this call. what shadow ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i grasp the logic, but notice that we sit in the gigantic spamatronic shadow of the phoundation. if nobody gives a fuck, there isn't much else to be said about this
asciilifeform: as i understand, they'd more or less have to be attempted doublespends
mod6: Then I'm gonna need to cut away from working on that on Saturday afternoonish at the latest to work on the SoBA -- which is looking to be lengthy for this month.
thestringpuller: i know but how would mempool be effectively capped so nodes don't purge "important" tx's if people spam network
mod6: im currenty building a new AMI for gentoo so I/we can test wtf is going on in there with gcc/uclibc. I should be done with that in a few hours.
mod6: I don't think that's ever been attempted iirc.
mod6: we could try some other version like 1.0.0.0 and see what happens i guess.
mod6: And if we wanna call it version 69.69.69.69 then there was some sort of concerns here surrounding weather or not we'd be able to connect to other nodes. I'd have to go back and look and dig through the code a bit though, I can't recall it all off hand.
asciilifeform: i'll sign an identical patch sans the bump if anyone needs this.
mod6: yeah, as far as the version number, in hindsight; going forward, we should probably keep all version bumps in it's own patch incase something changes. i.e. your latest IRC Full Demolition Patch.
kakobrekla: << usgtron with elaborate graph ad < meh i checked the yellow dots but there is everybody but bitbet. even jurovs coinroll is there
mod6: yeah i added the tarballs right in website myself... just was curious that i never saw the emails.
jurov: ^ i see rm_rf_upnp there
mod6: asciilifeform: hmm, i can't find them. i've looked probably half-a-dozen times over the last 5 months. unless its contained in here: http://thebitcoin.foundation/ml/btc-dev/2014-October/000001.html (attachment.bin)
asciilifeform: (and i think they're also in your auto-build thing)
mod6: asciilifeform: hey btw, I don't think that your patches { turdmeister-alert-snip && goodbye-win32 } ever made it into the email list.
asciilifeform: couldn't make this shit up if i tried.
thestringpuller: mod6: so jeezy is playing tonight downtown in celebration of the 10th anniversary of tm101. and i didn't know about it. i'm half tempted to get 500 cash and go find some ticket scalpers
mod6: but yeah, i don't see any release artifact for v0.5.4 or v0.5.5
mod6: I don't see it in "Releases" either, but there isn't a v0.5.3 in there either.
mod6: maybe they never actually created a release out of that? I see no tags for 0.5.4 or 0.5.5
mod6: asciilifeform: ... 0.5.4 shitgnomatic edition existed << that's weird. I did check the bitcoin git tag list, 0.5.4 isn't in there. Where do you see 0.5.4?
kakobrekla: i was expecting it to beat all other tube rectifiers i have
kakobrekla: i can now, since its crap.
kakobrekla: i assume thats in the ss replacement
kakobrekla: since you mention ss, i tried solid state rectifier replacement instead of tube rectifier. it was a mega fail.
decimation: I suspect the difference would be most noticable if you were using it as a guitar amp and then driving the thing to distort
decimation: I've been told (haven't experimented) that tubs tend to create even harmonics while transistors odd, when driven to near saturation
decimation: I think for most cases there is almost no difference
kakobrekla: decimation as far as i can tell tubes are there as output buffer, feeding of sigma delta dac
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu, mod6, ben_vulpes, et al: i just don't get this 'let's use same name & versions as the fools did' thing. when we build martian city, will we name it 'washington' or 'pyongyang' ?! why?
shinohai: I have put out ads for 2 years offering to hire a language tutor.
shinohai: I didn't know anyone still made them.
shinohai: I saw a Samsung tube amp wifi receiver for a home theater once
kakobrekla: i have a tube powered dac but my main power amp sits at 40kg of solid state
shinohai: I used to play guitar. I never liked solid state amps
asciilifeform: i'm told that in usa folks in prison get headphones. and now i imagine i know what kind.
kakobrekla: i dont know how some people dont mind that plastic, its horrible.
kakobrekla: yeah, i paid 7$ to get the 'velour' ones
kakobrekla: that comparison i was making with sennheiser hd 595 and hd 650 was on 10k source+preamp
asciilifeform: thing is, sound card is precisely how loud i want them
shinohai: I see little point in running a VPS to make $20 in Amazon giftcards
shinohai: I like the Russian idiom
mircea_popescu: http://sgate.emt.bme.hu/patai/publications/z80guide/part4.html << considering all the work one has to go through to mult. i dunno, i recalled it had the instruction. i guess memory rots.
mircea_popescu: <shinohai> If he reneged on said offer to me, I'd pribably go to jail for assault. << over a hundred bux ? what are you, bugsy ?
mircea_popescu: i guess it's gonna go up eventually.
mircea_popescu: fluffypony i think i had a cup there with mthreat coupla weeks ago. coffee's not bad
shinohai: "El cafe que te vuelve inteligente" <<< I drink, I get smart
punkman: I think you just gotta SHA256 the deed bundle and use that as the private exponent
shinohai: https://i.imgur.com/S4ndtvH.gif
shinohai: If he reneged on said offer to me, I'd pribably go to jail for assault.
shinohai: I did not know that cazalla though he struck me as kind of a douche.
shinohai: Thanks for your help again! I'm akways trying to learn and not make terrible noob mistakes.
shinohai: I certainly don't want to do anything that compromises the security f my key intentionally.
shinohai: I am reserching methods of making a larger key and found this: http://teravice.com/wp/index.php/2014/01/22/create-large-gnupg-keys-step-by-step-2/
shinohai: Good morning, #b-a. If there is a gpg expert here that has a moment to spare I have a question.
cazalla: in other australian news - http://i.imgur.com/fw7Fq8z.png - aussie government welfare app #22, they must be quite happy with that
cazalla: i've never known anyone to go to the sydney opera house for opera, not so sure they even have such things on a reg occurance, more bands, abo dance, international acts sorta thing
cazalla: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=25-06-2015#1175887 <<< i might be uncultured swine but i've never understood the appeal of the opera house.. i'd demolish it if i had my way ☝︎
fromphuctor: until I stop getting 500
fromphuctor: in the meantime, I'll probably script something that sends my file to Phuctor repeatedly until I stop getting an error.
fromphuctor: alright, sleeves need to be rolled up. I'll probably have to dig into ASN.1, extract the public keys, and then try factoring them with a kludged together Python script
fromphuctor: so I don't gain much by just running it locally without P
fromphuctor: I'm mainly trying to determine if I have generated a key with bad entropy leading to bad primes meaning easy factorability
mircea_popescu: a) if you're looking for binaries it's unlikely your key is your weak point ; b) gcd is an algorithm, i guess you could call it a function. "greatest common divisor" ; c) P is at the core of this, as it looks for MUTUAL divisors
fromphuctor: and do I need P if I don't particularly care about collisions?
fromphuctor: is there code I can run locally to attempt to factor it and save Phuctor's CPU time?
fromphuctor: I figured it was either failing due to the key being too large or due to it not being published anywhere
fromphuctor: okay, I'll keep sending
fromphuctor: it's an as-of-yet unpublished GPG key because I wanted to make sure it's not easily factorable
fromphuctor: I'm unable to submit my GPG key online to Phuctor
eatinstrawberry: fuck i got assbot
fromphuctor: do I have a voice?
cazalla: on basis i have never left the shores of australia.. i reluctantly agree
eatinstrawberry: shall i count to 100?
mircea_popescu: heck, i'm on the record buying bitcoins with it.
cazalla: yeah i know where to buy those too :P
mircea_popescu: cazalla you know i had an account for a decade +, which ~I~ closed ?
mircea_popescu: why the fuck would i care to deal with such idiots ? if they had the golden goose, why would i ? they don';t know enough about selling to sell me on their own fucking salesmanship already
mircea_popescu: let aloine the "do you motherfuckers take bitcoin" point, no specs are offered whatsoever. i can't see what fucking sites they run
cazalla: while eating muh chicken wings for lunch, i was tempted to go and get some rum but i fell asleep instead.. change of heart once i woke up
decimation: heh yeah I thought of you
cazalla: decimation, i should do a voice over youtube video for that meme
