copypaste: BingoBoingo: Now two people think I am Mircea.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-05-2015#1131778 << if we're going in the direction of 'cuckold miners,' i'm not sure why anyone imagines any of it is attributable with any certainty in any direction whatsoever ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i nearly did a while back, but meh.
mircea_popescu: and i intend to keep the mix more or less varied so.
mircea_popescu: ah mkay. anyway, server load was throughout < .2 so i dun think that'll be a problem.
mircea_popescu: copypaste i wonder what the mixed content thing is
menahem: though I must admit, I did the same thing once.
cazalla: although i guess just because such scam would work on me is not evidence it'd work on everyone
cazalla: decimation, sorta what i was thinking in regards to double spending.. why would they need to do it when they can just pay you and steal it back
decimation: it's possible someone is using infrastructure for a private purpose, but I can't imagine it is officially sanctioned
cazalla: i vaguely recollect someone was using the machines at the ABC (gov owned tv channel) to mine bitcoin back around 2011
menahem: decimation i was told that canadian gov employees were mining bitcoin. however, when i asked about pools and block rewards, they had no idea what I was talking about. so... it definitely seems highly unlikely.
decimation: I find it terribly unlikely that any formal usg employee is mining bitcoin
assbot: Logged on 13-05-2015 22:19:52; danielpbarron: i don't have a problem with USG getting 1/3 of all the bitcoin; the can only spend it once
mircea_popescu: Server Load0.03 heh i dun think this will be a problem
mircea_popescu: decimation i would imagine the larger it gets, the more useful it is.
mod6: decimation: hrm. could be i guess. i'll check into that.
copypaste: foreach ($config['banned_ad_boards'] as $i => $b) { echo "php rebuild.php --board $b\n"; }
mod6: this is bizzare. i can only get the ssh keys to work /after/ I set a password on the user acount on the instnace (in /etc/shadow). if the user doesn't have a password set, just asks for a pw when connecting. (gentoo uclibc hardened) am i missing something obvious?
copypaste: i did ;)
menahem: i don't know whats up - but links to selections aren't working for me. they were at first, but not anymore.
mircea_popescu: and i'm not entirely sure the meta-universe is open to you at all. there isn't any space for you to "Act upon" in this enlightened, gender savvy, "i am an actor in a movie and i read the script" sense.
mircea_popescu: trinque which is directly why i said that bit about http://trilema.com/2015/why-representative-democracy-doesnt-work-and-doesnt-make-sense/#selection-151.0-157.105
decimation: my cable modem 'received an update' as soon as I plugged it into the cable network. even though I owned the modem, I had absolutely no say or ability to stop the install
trinque: but I suppose so what.
trinque: so what did I have a problem with...
copypaste: OK done. I'll go run that rebuild now. https://8ch.net/pol/
trinque: I begin to understand -> mircea_popescu:you'll come out of it thinking what it needs you to.
mircea_popescu: "you can't halfass bitcoin" is the thing. which property is why i was musing that it's more like a force of nature than anything else.
copypaste: As we agreed. I'll do that.
copypaste: Oops, I forgot to remove Coinbase
copypaste: I'll go do that
copypaste: I have to force rebuild the boards we agreed to
copypaste: I stuck it on all the boards. 8chan uses a style of rebuilding where a new post rebuilds a thread on a board
copypaste: OK. I'm going to embed that now. I hope it behaves well under load. Time will tell
copypaste: I didn't notice the different URL, sorry ;)
assbot: Logged on 02-02-2014 18:18:59; mircea_popescu: today at nsa headquarters, "sir, i would like to apply for permission to spend 10bn usd dollars in btc equivalent by dumpting our stash"
trinque: I can see that point.
mircea_popescu: i think that argument holds water, to a large degree. recall the "bitcoin pervers the nsa" discussion with alf maybe a year ago ?
trinque: mircea_popescu: what's your read of the exchange between pete and myself; I was hearing circular logic (no offense to pete)
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i suspect that only neutron bomb could have a hope of dealing with that continent's real problem
mircea_popescu: as long as it punctures the pki bs i'm happy.
copypaste: I wonder if I could just proxy from your trilema.com PHP script
cazalla: find out soon, i rang their contact centre and they said they'd email the images
mircea_popescu: but i can swear it won't be malicious, fwiw.
cazalla: apparently these are the guns seized by aussie LEA, nfi if for real http://i.imgur.com/tQJkNNM.jpg http://i.imgur.com/mKI3cI3.jpg
copypaste: I see, it makes sense. Unfortunately browser vendors have been very difficult about this lately.
mircea_popescu: i don't, because i don't use pki.
mircea_popescu: yeah but then how do i add/remove banners.
mircea_popescu: ah i see
copypaste: It won't work with the iframe method. I would need the source code of that file and run it on 8chan's server
copypaste: I'm linking via iframe like this
copypaste: I'm not sure I understand your proposal
mircea_popescu: listen, what if i push the image out as base64 ?
copypaste: I can keep it at HTTP but "Content Security Policy" in Firefox and Chrome will block it.
mircea_popescu: i guess gramas use it or something
asciilifeform: (which, where i live, has long ago gone packetized, yes)
asciilifeform: ^ i think jurov was speaking of 'tv-style' interface where schmuck is not aware that he is using the net, doesn't sit around hunting for warez, etc. but just sits with ir remote & drools
mircea_popescu: but i didn't take it.
assbot: Logged on 13-05-2015 21:58:34; jurov: afaik it's so everywhere, nobody does streaming available for own hardware, i have asked
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-05-2015#1130961 << i have internet here, no magic box. had it in romania too, they offered me the magic box. i didn't want it , the woman was in shock ☝︎
asciilifeform: i'm still curious, who is going to outcompete a hypothetical usg telecom monopoly inserting miners into cable boxes etc. and on what parameter ? cost of energy ? nope - schmucks pay. cost of manufacture? again, schmucks pay, indirectly. which is it ?
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-05-2015#1130948 << tbh i think he has it, but anyway. ☝︎
asciilifeform: for the benefit of log readers, i will point out again, that a sha256 hashing circuit is dwarfed, complexity-wise, by all but the simplest 'homework' cpu, gpu, whatever other ic product
williamdunne: trinque: I am
asciilifeform: most of them, i will point out, long before i did
williamdunne: Yeah, thats the one I'm getting
williamdunne: Yeah I'll check it
williamdunne: On the other I get a very quick flash of the no image logo, which then disappears
mircea_popescu: i've yet to see any tripwire move.
asciilifeform: how this act is financed is a secondary consideration. for all i know, they are whoring out their daughters to pay for it
mircea_popescu: mebbe. tho i dun think so. not that i have any serious basis for it.
mircea_popescu: i dun think so.
mircea_popescu: i guess.
asciilifeform: what can i say, these folks have more distance between selves and the cultured times.
cazalla: fwiw, i'd bang all 5 but only admit to 2 or maybe 3 of em
danielpbarron: i took that pic, it is my own. but i'll keep that in mind for future reference
danielpbarron: https://i.imgur.com/bbXqps5.jpg << seraminta is the one on the right (best pic i could find)
williamdunne: I can remember a while ago a calculation being done that it was cheaper to have a 120gb SSD filled with data shipped to Canada than it was to download onto your existing drive
mxtm: i want to use them
mxtm: i have all of these priority mail boxes and free tape now
copypaste: I especially like this: http://trilema.com/banners/trilema-online-rape.png
danielpbarron: if you straight up just want some coin, I can sell it to you in person; just hand me cash
mxtm: i'm more of the trader type
seraminta: ok but how do i
assbot: I'll pay for your tits on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1e2u9tT )
seraminta: i have a job heh
seraminta: i dont understand how to lke
seraminta: i'll read that now tho
seraminta: someone please teach me about this i am ready
seraminta: i see he is here
seraminta: i was told by my friend dan to come here
mircea_popescu: i dun think so
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> asciilifeform aws can definitely not be part of our canonical stuff huh. << agreed. i'll continue to get my sea-legs with what I've got so far, but what we end up supporting in the end will be a gentoo on a bare-rails environment. unless any objections?
jurov: oh i get it, it's litecoin
trinque: I said "for years"
trinque: I don't buy that either
trinque: I mean this assumes whatever sub-groups within the thing haven't been mining on their botnets for years
mircea_popescu: but whatever, i'm not here to provide strategic consultancy for free to "the titans of sv". fuck them sideways, they can go hire harlan ellison to do that.
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=12-03-2015#1050348 << not quite 2013 logs, but i'll take it. ☝︎
