asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i can scarcely remember a time when it -was- usable for some useful purpose.
asciilifeform: jurov: i haven't a synced one. ask danielpbarron
mircea_popescu: by which i mean facebook and its spawn, twitter, reddit etc.
asciilifeform: nothing - and i mean, -nothing- remotely comparable is available for any less than 6x the cost.
asciilifeform: i have a number of 'conventional' nodes where this warning now appears.
assbot: Logged on 27-05-2015 10:07:45; mircea_popescu: asciilifeform lmao zwarte kat. did i call it or what.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-05-2015#1146225 << yeah, same. i nearly imploded upon seeing that. ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-05-2015#1146155 << not one of those things is prime, for perfectly valid arithmetical reasons (see Apocalyptic's note about 641 and 6700417. and you can prove it, but i'm leaving it as an exercise for now) ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 27-05-2015 08:53:47; mircea_popescu: that's it. fuckall i give a shit about whatever any woman hummed in any circumstance and whatever tree or bird or wheeltrack through the mud.
jurov: i wouldn't be surprised at all if baseband has that
chetty: well I bet some did, coursts issued injunctions but I think the agencies just ignored it
mircea_popescu: chetty and i presume the people in question already received the green cards right ?
cazalla: i thought his amnesty was quite limited to who and time (3 years?)
mircea_popescu: if ballas were around the one thing i'd ask him would be to write up this particular story. it's something else, "the failures of roger ver's pretense on the jagged shores of reality - 2010 - 2015"
chetty: appeals court ruled against obama amnesty stuff, sometimes the law kinda works, but I doubt it will stop anything, courts cant enforce and there is history of O thumbing nose at them
cazalla: i figured him as autistic tbh
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-05-2015#1146101 << would you look at that. my wp auto-redirects to new url if i fuck up a title. you two gotta look into that. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i'm too far gone to be help-able by video.
fluffypony: that's the LTB podcast where I explain a bit about it
mircea_popescu: ah i c
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform lmao zwarte kat. did i call it or what. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: no i mean how do you know what happens in 2 years.
davout: i built the daemon five days ago, have it running since then, and it's still 220 days behind apparently
davout: you could, again if i understand correctly, decide to only spend a single input and work in a bitcoin-like 'degraded' mode
mircea_popescu: davout see kinda why i'm waiting for him to decide to present it.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-05-2015#1146039 << i recall this. one of the pillars of my original "lol apple is not worth money" notions. ☝︎
davout: mircea_popescu: if i understood correctly it's up to the sender, the idea being that you obfuscate where the money's coming from by signing a group of inputs that you may or may not contrel, only one of them being actually spent
davout: monero is pretty neat, the only real problem I see is that it'll bloat even faster than bitcoin given the fact that ring signatures are pretty expensive
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-05-2015#1145941 << from the crypts of the lost : "Can you run Monero miner through TOR? If yes, what change would need to made to the bat file on the opening page? I'm using Windows. thanks" ☝︎
mircea_popescu: fluffypony in any case, comparisons with dead cows like zerocoin, coinjoin etc aren't interesting. i'd like to hear a comparison with bitbet mixing, which is to my eyes the golden standard in bitcoin anonimizing of chain-visible transactions.
mircea_popescu: now, it's true that the first time around (ie, bitcoin), i spent my own money/time to get it researched. but expecting the same be done the 2nd time around is unreasonable.
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: it's an open-source project, so I'm waiting for contributors to fill that stuff in :)
mircea_popescu: that said, i'm still waiting for fluffypony to come an' say alright guyse, this is ready to present to b-a. because stuff like https://getmonero.org/knowledge-base/about or https://getmonero.org/design-goals/ ... srsly, colored rectangles ? WOW!11
mircea_popescu: i happen to believe the later's the case, but i would certainly regret to see the alternative viewpoint bereft of an experimentally available venue, because i am by no means certain this is so.
mircea_popescu: that's it. fuckall i give a shit about whatever any woman hummed in any circumstance and whatever tree or bird or wheeltrack through the mud. ☟︎
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> [01:32] rather, it is a u.s. aircraft carrier - which simply happens to be made of earth << girl and i both lold
BingoBoingo: I said the IRS was back of the cannon'd for all da information
williamdunne: On a different note, I have found an elderly Max Keiser!
decimation: they had a top gear uk episode recently on a ranch in western australia I think
decimation: why? I thought roos were everywhere
Vexual: i migh6t be off, its expensive
mats: i remember
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah, I suspect about 80% of the design is pure 'reference implementation'
decimation: I wonder how many people actually design a server motherboard? probably less than 10
danielpbarron: although i burn most of mine reloading the same articles over and over again as i pull them up to link in forum posts and whatnot
Vexual: lowercase l next to capitol I made me Iol
Adlai: i'd rather expect that my imagination wildly exceeds the mundane reality
Vexual: I did like your startup, alcohol something
Vexual: Adlai: it's good info i guess, prolly gets digested in ways that I can't imagine
BingoBoingo: So I joined #bitcoin-assets-trades and strongly recommend it. So much lulz when assbot reports the Havelol trades. Good for at least a chuckled every time I check the feed there
mats: http://www.reddit.com/r/netsec/comments/36obxt/what_i_know_about_us_export_controls_and_hacking surprisingly thorough
williamdunne: Then again, I began using DreamWeaver (mx?) when I was like 6-7
Adlai: and i don't even have to spam my qntra pushes across the entire userbase
williamdunne: Y'know what I mean
williamdunne: I think fluffypony's Monero's way of doing it is pretty interesting tho
Adlai: i guess a better question is "what does 'not Gavin-sized' mean"
williamdunne: Not quite, I still think at some point it will need to be bigger. Just not Gavin-sized
williamdunne: Hello all, thought I'd help beef up the logs. Been looking hollow last couple of days!
Apocalyptic: ;;later tell mircea_popescu maybe i'm misunderstanding something simple but you could give such a factor for 0xffaaccddffaaccdd3c4b7ff83c4b7ff8 , it's a random 128 bit number constructed as the moduli in question, ( and 0x1000000000000000100000000 does not divide it)
mircea_popescu: and with that i must bid you a very good night.
cazalla: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-05-2015#1145602 <<< meh i was rolling down drunk, but being a dad is great fun, just stressful at times ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i guess that puts it to rest
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: remember how i did litmus
ascii_field: though, for rigour's sake, i will add that n is a multiple-of-64 bits-long, and is nonzero
mircea_popescu: i suppose this would be equivalent, if in fact the moduli were uniformly mangled by the shifting.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo "unclaimed funds would be reduced by 25% per month until there was no balance." << somebody skipped stochastics 101 i take it.
mircea_popescu: i dunno, i just cursorily looked at it and didn't expect on the strength of what i saw to actually have DIVISORS that are 32bitshift-and-add
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i dun follow ?
ascii_field: Apocalyptic: no. but i suspect that one of you already did.
Apocalyptic: i'm just getting started, do you have built such a thing ?
Apocalyptic: I guess it depends on what "whole thing" you have in mind
ascii_field: Apocalyptic: i assume you've already worked out the whole thing
ben_vulpes: i have to say that i'm having trouble holding the whole keysmashing party in my head
BingoBoingo: http://i.imgur.com/TFvb1OK.png?1
trinque: don't believe I performed any operations which would require that...
trinque: hm #bitcoin-assets (or really freenode) just told me I'm not an op of #b-a
trinque: ben_vulpes: I think obedience runs (and mustn't it run) far deeper than reason
ben_vulpes: <cazalla> which is why i stay and suffer << bail with the bairn?
ben_vulpes: <cazalla> fwiw i dont think anyone needs to be taught to cook << nah man it's applied thermo, it must needs be taught or learned through experience
mircea_popescu: i wouldn't let him marry my daughter on the account.
mircea_popescu: and i will point out that this is not performance.
asciilifeform: i do not look up to afghanistan as peak of human culture. but that's just imho.
mircea_popescu: i never bought into the trotskist explainatorism.
mircea_popescu: "If I had realized the impact my creation of Silk Road would ultimately have on the people I care about most, I never would have created Silk Road."
mircea_popescu: I am writing you this letter in anticipation of my upcoming sentencing. This is a challenging letter to write because, as one who faces punishment, I have a strong incentive to say anything I think might result in leniency. But I have endeavored to be honest and forthright throughout this process, and so I will be in this letter as well.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: they came to terms with their life. << did i forget to take my morning lsd today, or what? who and where ever 'came to terms with their life' ?
davout: danielpbarron asciilifeform re mircea_popescu's comments earlier regarding bitcoind's pogo, is there any way that i can get it running on the buildroot install before we actually manage to pull-off a static build?
asciilifeform: (implication was - that they died. unless i misread)
mircea_popescu: idem in the army (not that i went, but i can count as well as anyone)
mircea_popescu: nobody died when/where i went to schoo, contrary to whining to the contrary.
asciilifeform: i get this.
mircea_popescu: but i shall endeavour.
mircea_popescu: mod6 i think they're behind not in front
mod6: i should have waited on my key-retest. lol, got 119764 infront of it in the queue now.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: nope. last night when got home, turned on experiment where it snarfs from pre-filtered (i.e. having rsa moduli) keys
cazalla: i specifically remember this point in high school thinking about the future
cazalla: all i want is a bit more land
cazalla: i'd go innawoods
cazalla: seriously surprised i even spawned a kid
cazalla: because no woman i met was really like that
