copypaste: I gave Ars very strict rules for interviewing me.
copypaste: BingoBoingo: I'll do my best. Journalists are notorious for ignoring half of what I say.
cazalla: of course you do but i spent most of my time on 4chan prior to finding this place so ya know
mircea_popescu: i thought i had a speshul place in cazalla's heart!
BingoBoingo: copypaste: I had no idea you were you until dat key
copypaste: I just wanted to be someone in Bitcoin and took Mircea's advice :p
copypaste: i like you cazalla. I'm amazed anyone here ven knew who I was
cazalla: yeah same, i pitched it to these goys here but no interest
copypaste: i love it
BingoBoingo: I mean he signed with O'Reilly, not the huns
mircea_popescu: i hadn't seen anything from him in a while, assumed i musta killed him or something.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: He has his own startup nao and every press release I get that feeling like I need to run to the hospital and get an ultrasound on my scrotum again (to bee fair it feels good man https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Feels_good_man)
BingoBoingo: Last spring I survived a testicular torsion with both testicles intact. It was far less painful than any consecutive set of reading by ANdreas Herpaderpalous
copypaste: r/buttcoin will probably flip. I've noticed that the same trolls on r/GamerGhazi are on r/buttcoin.
cazalla: fucking engrish.. can always tell i've had a day or 2 of heavy drinking when i type like that
copypaste: I know. I've read a lot of your blog the past week. I wasn't around for that but that chat log, man. I could feel it.
copypaste: "oh no, i need to do AML! the state is coming!"
copypaste: I don't care enough to do the same to Flattr though.
copypaste: After Gratipay fucked with me I put them out of business, or close to it.
cazalla: similar shit to dwolla i think
mircea_popescu: "If you donated to the Infinity Dev. Group over Flattr, it seems that they have turned into a scam and you should charge these conmen back immediately by contacting your financial institution. (I realize this includes my support key. I don't give a shit, flood their insecure bullshit report ticket in my name. I see no other way to prove it.) Reports are that they lost their PayPal account recently, and Flattr CEO and o
mircea_popescu: cazalla i didn't think that far ahead ;/
gribble: I'll pay for your tits on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu.: <http://trilema.com/2014/ill-pay-for-your-tits/>; They really are Buttcoins nao on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu.: <http://trilema.com/they-really-are-buttcoins-nao>; June 2014 on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu.: <http://trilema.com/2014/06>
mircea_popescu: you got no bars there i take it.
mircea_popescu: (yes, i have done this)
copypaste: I guess videotaping the pissing is illegal.
copypaste: mircea_popescu: It's not what I say. These peopole hold me accountable for what anonymous users do.
copypaste: I've had to school many people in how to buy Bitcoin due to this.
copypaste: I've gotten some of them interested.
cazalla: not sure qntra has any specific to pol, they'd need an interest in bitcoin to begin with.. as for trilema, i'll have a hunt
copypaste: Will do. It'll be the 117th channel I'm idling in :)
mircea_popescu: aite. ideally you add this chan to your idle list and so i can just ping you when it's ready.
copypaste: I can implement it as soon as you're ready by adding /pol/, /v/ and /i/ to the banned_boards thing and then changing the ad code.
mircea_popescu: aite, effective in a coupla days once i get the rotator in place ?
mircea_popescu: alright, well, let's see this, gimme then the a-ads set + pol + v, and i
copypaste: Indeed. Since I'm the main email ( admin@8chan.co ) I get most ad inquiries anyway
copypaste: And I can remove the Coinbase/localbitcoins thing as well
copypaste: So in reality I'll pay them most of what you give me, but you still get your ad.
copypaste: I get email occasionally about putting ads on /v/.
copypaste: I can do that. They told me that if people email me about ads on boards they have ads on (/pol/, /v/) I should accept it and tell them.
mircea_popescu: copypaste honestly i mostly wanted pol.
copypaste: Indeed. And if you want any of the a-ads boards I can do that too.
mircea_popescu: anyway, if you're getting 7 servers including expensive raid arrangements for the ads you should prolly stick to that deal. i doubt the advertising value of what seems like 15 maybe 20k uniques past 72 hours could support that.
mircea_popescu: i think it might not work because geolocation, too.
copypaste: As I said, they're incompetent so it doesn't work over HTTPS.
copypaste: I do: http://a.pomf.se/miwbnz.png
BingoBoingo: I see no banner on /pol/ either, but...
copypaste: I'm holding my breaeth still.
copypaste: If you visit it on non-https it will work. Like I said, they are hard to deal with. They told me "new ad code by the end of May".
mircea_popescu: and pol gets no ads i see ?
copypaste: /cuteboys/ is also in the top 25. Rank 10 I think.
BingoBoingo: I guess BTC-ISP will have to fish a new client...
copypaste: I can put it on all the a-ads boards, but if I made it exclusive for you for the whole site, I'd need to find a new host.
copypaste: mircea_popescu: Some boards don't have a-ads. The agreement with the hosting company is that for some boards, they put their own ads, but I don't know how much those make. In turn they don't send me a bill.
mircea_popescu: copypaste i write you a rotator script, you just pull that in ?
copypaste: I'm not even getting paid for that Coinbase link ;) 4free
mircea_popescu: i''ll payt you 1 btc upfront for the first month and you give it to me, exclusive. no other ads on 8chan
copypaste: It was abysmal before I contacted the owner. Then he paid me 0.01BTC for yesterday.
copypaste: Oh. I've always used the nick "copypaste" in IRC ( as well as on Github: http://github.com/ctrlcctrlv ). Hotwheels is a meme.
cazalla: no, i mean nickwise
copypaste: I added my pubkey from http://8ch.net/pubkey.txt to assbot
copypaste: cazalla: I am hotwheels for real, how would you like me to verify that?
cazalla: copypaste, so is it copypaste? i figured it was hotwheels for real
mircea_popescu: maybe i happenbed opn a small one lessee
copypaste: I assumed it was a standard size
mircea_popescu: cazalla incidentally, i was reading about some anti-racist association thingee. was good for a lol.
mircea_popescu: the idea being that i'd just rotate banners, whatever they might be.
mircea_popescu: oh i see... yeah boards much better huh
copypaste: Also, I recommend putting ads on the boards (or the boards page https://8ch.net/boards.html ) and not the homepage for the most people to see it.
copypaste: I understand. I thought you were telling me how to verify, sorry.
copypaste: but I did
copypaste: I don't see any other way to verify though
copypaste: OK. I did !register but !up tells me I have to have a certain rating to !up
cazalla: tell i mean
copypaste: I do
copypaste: you said that no one is anyone in bitcoin if they aren't in the WoT so I came around to attempt to become someone
copypaste: yes i was here to do that after reading some of your blogs. i really like the recent one about argentina
cazalla: copypaste, i like ben garrison's drawing of you
decimation: I bet the majority of argintina's 'raw materials' exports are extracted by foreign corporations
copypaste: i own 8ch.net. i was here before, maybe when it was called 8chan.co, on a different nick.
mircea_popescu: what if i don't accept that proposition ?
decimation: note the difference between merely possessing and engaging - "Yeah I have a chunk of that roman temple, it's my birdbath"
decimation: from the earlier podcast "Again, if you accept my proposition that the object of the museum enterprise is for people to be engaging with art rather than for museums to be possessing art, then I think all of these questions come to the surface, and that they are real possibilities once we understand how much enormous wealth has been accumulated and isn't being put to use."
mircea_popescu: and his display i think is the basic image viewer
assbot: Logged on 13-05-2015 02:44:37; asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i would dearly like to learn the context for this picture ^
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-05-2015#1129826 << sadly, i have nfi. there's a bunch of ru/ukr photogs that do fetish-y/arts-y stuff in the style of met, but i can't trace this one. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo just saying, once he publishes it on his blog, that's that, no qntra. << Sure. Maybe it is a congitive bias of myself, but I assume persona; wordfests would always get the best Tips and Tricks (TM firstest)

assbot: Logged on 13-05-2015 02:09:20; decimation: williamdunne: it's not that I'm a hater on asian folk, just that it doesn't have a distinct 'englishness' anymore
mod6: I'm having a bit of ssh pubkey auth issues again.
mod6: Alright I've got a Gentoo AMD64 uclibc hardened booted successfully. I basically just had a few minor tweaks to make to the notes; i.e., uclibc version doens't install grub by default, there is no /etc/locale.gen by default. That kinda thing.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i am presently at a loss for reasons to believe that it happened
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'm reading it now. mindfuck.
BingoBoingo: <decimation> apparently the actual valuation of art in us art museums is hilariously high << I price my iris and daisy rhizomes high because historical artifacts. FBI surrendered to BTC once in this yard
mircea_popescu: that bitcoin isp thread on trilema has turned into one of the flat out strangest things i've witnessed online lately.
decimation: "'? Guest: Any museum--I'm paraphrasing--it basically says any museum that sells art for any purpose for any purpose other than to buy more art--so it's okay if you have three paintings by Painter A and none by Painter B and you like Painter B and you sell an A painting and buy a B painting. That's okay. But if you ever sell out of the collection for any purpose other than more collecting, then other museum directors are forbidden by
asciilifeform: l0l re: article. also remembering 'rentalstarter' etc. for what it's worth, i live on the other end of that stick, the rental market that virtually nobody caters to
decimation: oh that reminds me, I heard a good econtalk today http://www.econtalk.org/archives/2015/05/michael_ohare_o.html
menahem: lol, I know you know your films. which ones did you watch ?
