mircea_popescu: that's ok. it'll be
a lot worse next year. and the next and the next, and who knows, maybe it makes it till 2020 even.
mircea_popescu: His comments track with those of his House counterpart Devin Nunes, who said earlier this week that the country is at
a higher risk of terrorism than ever before.
mircea_popescu: "The FBI has been rounding up more potential lone wolf terrorists, congressional leaders and the Justice Department say, in response to the perception of
a mounting threat of domestic attacks inspired by the Islamic State."
shinohai: @ mircea_popescu if I find
a Russian bride in the form of that pic you just posted, I would be
a very happy person indeed.
BingoBoingo: replace the stars on the current banner with little watermelons, repatern the stripes like
a KFC bucket
shinohai: So dumb. If only history had
a blockchain.
mircea_popescu:
a committee did it ? you each did it, individually, the full thing.
mircea_popescu: Recently agitators in the United States along with officials in various government capacities have been exploiting
a recent minor tragedy << would work without the 2nd recent too
mircea_popescu: allows mempools to be run like
a service, much like say
a website works.
mircea_popescu: inclusion in one of these is valuable, and so
a private deal can be had.
mircea_popescu: specifically : that at the very least it should not be possible for one to fire
a missile at any place that scarfs up txn or knows about them and hit
a miner.
mircea_popescu: anyway. i think that'd be actually +ev, but just
a thought.
mircea_popescu: actually
a switch to create "minimally acceptable /kb subsidy" as
a precondition of taking tx into mempool might be useful.
mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> asciilifeform: What about cutting off the leading zero. Then actual releases start at version 7 or 10, following in the tradition established by the early Linux Distros. << the problem is that the implication of having
a 1 leading version (ie, mature product) is laughable. we don't. hopefully one day we will, but the current offering is not it.
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: if the valid tx's submitted to the network approach
a large number that is greater than modest machine's memory capacicty
mircea_popescu: will you propose ~WE~ change the versioning number when (not if) some OTHER shitgnomes release
a faux version downstream ?
mircea_popescu: four followds three. this is not
a function of anyone's idiocy.
mircea_popescu: <shinohai> Hopefully to find
a native speaker, which is impossible in my small city. << so buy
a bride. ukr won't be cheap much longer.
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: this is
a good idea though.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> unrelated: anybody try capping mempool size ? << not me yet. there's
a laundry list of stuff to get through yet.
mod6: well, my concerns were of
a technical nature anyway.
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.
mod6: so we've talked about the versioning quite
a bit since October. The deal is, if we talk about nothing other than just the format ( X.X.X.X ), we know that we'll have to change much more code than just one line to give it
a new version number, as there is
a bunch of stuff in there that is used to parse this value.
mod6: thestringpuller: nice man! yeah, that'll definately be
a cool show.
ben_vulpes: if unarmored sapper, perhaps more of
a big deal
mod6: it's out of order
a bit
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
kakobrekla: early 2014. year and
a half, feels like ages.
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
shinohai: I have put out ads for 2 years offering to hire
a language tutor.
shinohai: Hopefully to find
a native speaker, which is impossible in my small city.
shinohai: I saw
a Samsung tube amp wifi receiver for
a home theater once
kakobrekla: so thats bout 2k albums at the touch of
a button, convenient.
kakobrekla: its
a sigma delta , yes not even r2r but theres
a rectifier and two output tubes
kakobrekla: i have
a tube powered dac but my main power amp sits at 40kg of solid state
shinohai: @ asciilifeform you can build
a vaccum amp O.o
kakobrekla: anyway, if you have
a chance to at least try them semi properly driven, please do.
shinohai: I see little point in running
a VPS to make $20 in Amazon giftcards
shinohai: @ mircea_popescu truth and honesty have
a far greater value than anything else. Besides,he has
a face like Mark Zuckerberg that you just want to punch for no reason.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform well z80 had
a multiplier and iirc shifter
mircea_popescu: <punkman> "Ades Stone talks about the Treasury's decision to put
a woman on the $10 bill and why she thinks
a woman should be on the $20, too." << "because they've not done anything worth the mention so perhaps if we do they start ?"
mircea_popescu: he has
a point tho. anyone feel like writing up
a documentation page for trinque to stick up there ?
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: silver down to 16 huh ? where is that guy came in here was an expert that hadn't been wrong in
a decade knew for usre silver's going up ?
mircea_popescu: fluffypony i think i had
a cup there with mthreat coupla weeks ago. coffee's not bad
decimation: it's
a colossal joke that this ruling gets handed down by the king's judges, in the 800th year of the magna carta - which itself was
a joke and used as propaganda
assbot:
A man from Alabama has been charged with sexually harassing
a dog as he sought to get revenge on his wife who was giving it too much attention. | BieBuzz ... (

punkman: "Ades Stone talks about the Treasury's decision to put
a woman on the $10 bill and why she thinks
a woman should be on the $20, too."
cazalla: he was
a protege of alex jones but got all butt hurt and so pretty much copies everything that loon does
shinohai: I did not know that cazalla though he struck me as kind of
a douche.
cazalla: shinohai, did ya know mark dice is
A) major clickbait faggot B) goes around offering gold coins and silver bars really cheap but when someone tries to take him up on the offer, he refuses and just edits the footage so as not to include it
davout: there's
a difference between
a key size being considered insecure and an algorithm being broken
shinohai: Thanks guy. So until such
a time that RSA 4096 is broken, we're still quite safe.
mircea_popescu: there is no serious benefit offered by
a key larger than 4096. for one thing, we don't currently have any reason to believe even 2k keys can actually be factored.
davout: if you need to change the code in two places to change
a single scalar
shinohai: Good morning, #b-
a. If there is
a gpg expert here that has
a moment to spare I have
a question.
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
fromphuctor: thanks for the pointers in the right direction, have
a great day
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
mircea_popescu: well, again, gpg has
a probabilistic test for primality baked in.
mircea_popescu: you could run
a probabilistic test on your own machine for your own modulus. if you have
a good rng this usually woirks,
