cazalla: MisterE: they don't want a better life, they want to live in the bush as they did before the British came here, I am happy for them to do that, government is not and they keep throwing money at them
cazalla: seriously though, i don't care anymore
cazalla: i am finding a lot of people my age no longer care, don't even bother voting even though it's compulsory
cazalla: i don't mind yanks but we call you guys seppos when you're here
cazalla: I don't anymore, not that what I did before was trading, more gambling
cazalla: MisterE: I don't think the Chinese care for it, majority of the volume is still on btc-e, I figure coblee kicked this off on his brother's exchange just so he could sell without fees or risk
mircea_popescu: "don't shoot or i'll unfollow you"
asciilifeform: somebody should print cloth crib sheets, like the maps given to british officers during the war, but for americans. contents: 'don't shoot - i know secrets!' in 30 languages.
mircea_popescu: omg i don't suck how can you say that!1
mircea_popescu: you don't read the forum much i take it.
ninjashogun: It's the difference between "How can I help you get from a $500K nominal valuation - your last round - to $10M" and "Wait, you're not taking a salary? Why don't you just go on welfare?" -- this channel above :)
Apocalyptic: ninjashogun, I hope i don't use any products resulting of your experience
ninjashogun: I don't think it's possible to make a true tamper evident device.
ninjashogun: I personally don't like tamper evident seals at all.
ninjashogun: (I mean, for example, in theory you can do a deep check on all of your partners and KNOW they have no STD's and also don't sleep with anyone else othre than you. Condom use lets you have some protection in cases where this isn't done.)
ninjashogun: But I don't think the Risk Compensation argument is effective against condom use.
mircea_popescu: "Yeah I am just messing with your minds and have no actual technical ability. But maybe someone does who is reading my points and maybe they will do something. I am hoping. You see I don't really care how we get the solution, as long as we get one. I am not the young productive programmer that I once was with two good eyes (not very productive since losing one eye and acquiring an apparently progressive, incurable peri
asciilifeform: but i don't blame them for the decline
mircea_popescu: im sure i don't.
benkay: mircea_popescu: you're not paying me to spend any time at that domain i don't think
decimation: just not against problems of the "I don't know what I want" variety
kakobrekla: <mircea_popescu> i don't recall why the chan log only starts from april 2013, but prolly cause lazy < like a year of bullshit isnt enough
FabianB: i don't think tencent would ever sell
mircea_popescu: i don't recall why the chan log only starts from april 2013, but prolly cause lazy
radan: I don't know
dexX7: tbh i don't know exactly what it is. i guess the attempt to create bitcointalk 2.0
Mats_cd03: i don't either
benkay: Mats_cd03: i don't see the utility of training people out of good crypto habits.
nubbins`: well why don't i just read the fucking faq ;(
Namworld: Well anyway, no point in talking further. I don't have anything else to do on the computer, I'll be on my way.
radan: "I don't feel fondly attached to any culture particularly."
Namworld: Some would say loss of culture and traditional way of living is not progress. Me, I don't feel fondly attached to any culture particularly.
mircea_popescu: i don't get what the trouble with tolerance is in the first place.
Namworld: I don't think we can eliminate those things, short of simply eradicating ourselves.
radan: I don't get your point Namworld
radan: I personally don't consider macedonians to be my people
radan: I don't think the vlachs had any influence on modern bulgaria
Namworld: I don't mind dying if that's what you're implying, or feel threatened by death in any serious way.
Namworld: I don't know who that is.
radan: I also think you really don't have a direction in life, but maybe you'll prove me wrong
Namworld: I don't know, first black thing which popped in my mind.
radan: I don't want to invest in the genetic stock of another nation
Namworld: Did I ever define good as that? I don't recall using those words you portray me to have said.
radan: of course I don't
radan: but I really don't think I would be unhappy in a traditional lifestyle
radan: I don't know how you do it in Wallachia
radan: I don't know what you mean by reculture, either
radan: I don't see anything manly, or even beneficial in a feminine way, from sticking with it
radan: see, I don't think there's anything manly about dying for a ridiculous cause
Namworld: thestringpuller, she's probably paid to talk with people all the time. I don't see why that would exclude chatting session with relevant people to an article, like Mircea. Which happens to be mostly talking only in this channel, as he seems to have made his online residence here.
mircea_popescu: i don't ;/
ThickAsThieves: I don't run any of them anymore though.
ReutersEmily: mircea_popescu I don't know what nickserv is
ReutersEmily: i don't remember off teh top of my head what format that was in because it was my colleagues in Japan who took a close look at that
nubbins`: i've met none of these people in real life, and don't have any plans to
nubbins`: for example, i don't day trade, and i don't think most others here do either
ReutersEmily: mircea_popescu i know. i don't know each of the cases well enough to be able to say they were "all correct"
mircea_popescu: i don't, mostly because i can't.
Namworld: Information on the market is assymetric everywhere else, almost. I don't see why force it for securities.
ReutersEmily: bounce no i don't mind
mircea_popescu: (for instance i don't write out ReutersEmily every time i name you, i just type out re)
ReutersEmily: hdbuck it's a fun beat but i don't think it's good for my blood pressure
ReutersEmily: so...perhaps you don't want to discuss it here but i would love to know what you think of the new cyprus-based 'bank'
mircea_popescu: you don't have to run research it, just say no if you don't an' i'll explain. it's not really too complicated.
mircea_popescu: i don't think it would or is trying to.
mircea_popescu: as i was pointing out to someone from i don't remember where yesterday,
cazalla: i don't but i just wish i had the dosh now incase it goes back up in the interim
Izzy_: no i don't think so
decimation: I don't have any french, only german. Google translate for me.
decimation: I don't think bitcoin rises high enough on the foreign policy hopper to pressure Romania
mircea_popescu: it works the other way around : i don't argue the negative, they make the statements that establish the positive.
mircea_popescu: that's not how laws work. i don't declare that i broke no laws, and i don't contest the authority of some random person making demands.
bitcoinpete: i don't… who is he?
dexX7: i see.. don't try to send shares to yourself.. they simply vanish <.<"
asciilifeform: i don't even code << probably more first-rate heads have been ruined by programming computers than dope
mircea_popescu: by now my shit is too complex for me to even say, and i don't even code ;/
Neil: I don't think so. Who can answer definitively?
nubbins`: ;;later tell benkay i don't hate the look, i hate the fact that it's barely functional. ;(
benkay: babydoll wanted me to watch some maddow thing about god i don't even remember
joecool: the cardano seems ok if you can maintain physical security, it doesn't even try to stop an opportunistic attacker, i really don't see why it shouldn't have at least a simple auth system
antephialtic: besides, I don't think MP is the one in trouble here. Voorhees, on the other hand ...
mircea_popescu: Mats_cd03 i don't see why not. i thought it already is, but more like "he is satoshi nakamoto"
[\]: mircea_popescu: I forgot you don't play well in the sandbox.
mircea_popescu: nah, i don't have a dog.
dexX7: i don't get it? why did you mark this bet?
ninjashogun: no I don't own one.
ninjashogun: asciilifeform, (I don't think this is a good use of the word "just"). But it answers your question regarding what is inside.
ninjashogun: asciilifeform, I don't like to say it but it's "just" a single-board module around a microcontroller that is a usb device
ninjashogun: asciilifeform, for example mircea_popescu could probably build a physical card that is a "lukewarm wallet" as you put it, he would have the funds, but I don't think he could get his R&D investment back - it would be money thrown away.
ninjashogun: mike_c - No, I don't have any interest in building a device like that. The only way it would be feasible for a single person who has not made a substantial exit in another company, is if it were strongly patentable. Idon't think it is.
ninjashogun: this has been an interesting conversation. Yes, it's not easy to manufacture. I don't know how much those chips do when powered on but I doubt it's enough to do whatever a lukewarm wallet would need to.
moiety: ninjashogun: i don't believe that's my place to do so
ninjashogun: I don't know how an offline wallet will know its balance. For example, if it stays offline and the account receives a transfer for someone, how will it get updated?
deadweasel: ninjashogun: I don't
ninjashogun: deadweasel, sorry I wasn't clear enough. The difficulty with 'buying' a currency is that people don't think of 'buying' a dollar, or euro, or pound. It's a difficult concept for most people. People think of using currency, not buying it.
ninjashogun: asciilifeform, I've always heard that if you make things for idiots, you will always have a huge market, since most people don't use most technologies.
benderp: ninjashogun: if you can't be bothered to respond to private conversations that you start, I don't see why I should arse myself to respond to your PMs.
ninjashogun: asciilifeform, okay. I was talking about that USB thing that escrows your private key. I know you only said it was about private keys - but most users don't know what that is.
ninjashogun: davout - I don't necessarily call backwards compatibility "improving their OS". In fact, in many cases compatibility and objective improvement are at odds.
ninjashogun: davout - I don't think it's technical debt if it never needs to be fixed. Windows was never refactored onto a rock-hard Unix base with proven open technology stacks. Nor will it ever be. You can't call it debt if you're never going to do it.
