mircea_popescu: (we have
this joke in household, "General X", all
the various generals.)
mircea_popescu: better
than "die hardly", which is what
teh russian'd say :D
mircea_popescu: there's not so much difference between google "ai" as seen here ; and lookup
table mixups as seen with
the original eggog.
mircea_popescu: the reason people don't fuck dog/rat is principally
that woman cheaper.
mircea_popescu: and no, "take
the money freom
these 3 accts and send
to
these 8 acfcounts" IS NOT ONE
TRANSACTION. it's like 11.
mircea_popescu: Going back
to
that coffee meme,
the implied message is
that 1MB is fine unless for everything else. You know substantial stuff like paying your mortgage, business deals, major capital expenditures, or paying a supplier for inventory.
This just isn't
the case
though. Do you know anyone who pays for coffee with a bank wire?
The FedWire service (run by US federal reserve) processes ~150 million bank wires annually. "

TRB how
to isn't
truly noob proof. I have never even used Linux. I'm not qualified
to run a
TRB node it seems. I'm just a user who wants my BTC
to remain mine
mircea_popescu: aha. part of why
the whole "bitcoin
tx fee" argument was so
thoroughly derrided.
mircea_popescu: "HOW CAN SOMEONE CHARGE FOR FINANCIAL
TRANSFERS AND NOT CUT US IN!!11"
mircea_popescu: anyway. i'm rather looking forward
to
the 10k usd/btc doing 1 bitcent
txfees and everyone from goldman sachs
to goldman sachs salivating on
the side.
mircea_popescu: clearly
the cheap alternative has
to change!! god forbid people see
the value of bitcoin
to
the point
they're willing
to pay more
to use it
than
to use SWIFT!!! WHAT WOULD
THAT DO
TO
THE BANKS!!!1
mircea_popescu: meanwhile irl, bitcoin
tx costs 5 bux at
the very most. wire costs 50 bux at a minimum, plus whatever bank
tacks on
to
that.
mircea_popescu is now getting pissed off at conflicts long resolved
through
the beheading of
the conflicterers. what a life.
mircea_popescu: back in
the days of mpoe-pr, he was
the single "competitor" so
to speak, ie, person at
the same level. "deathandtaxes".
mircea_popescu: back
then
the standard for
technical qualification was "hey, let's put 10 bytes of
txid in one point of
the log and 14 in another. FUCK YOU!"
mircea_popescu: and
the list keeps going and going. gavin or mike hearn were (their moral
turpitude aside), ~technically~ qualified
to participate back in 2012.
mircea_popescu: and so it goes,
the
table stakes keep ratcheting up. "hey, i'm
the coolest kid in my village!" is great for while we're still
talking
the village.
mircea_popescu: take who
the fuck will you
take,
thickasthieves ? way ahead of
the pack back when
the pack consisted of "neobee will save bitcoin from ???".
shinohai: Oh dear Lord ...
the one
that puts Post-It notes outside
the "Bitcoin Embassy" or what
the fuck ever
mircea_popescu: in 2013 he seemed credible. in 2017 we meanwhile found out what a fucking joke argentina is ; and
this mutation exactly describes him,
too.
mircea_popescu: take
the xapo schmuck, what's his face,
the argentine "entrepreneur".
mircea_popescu: come 2017 ... he's barely qualified
to shrem. not even on
the fucking list, art all. what 99% ?
mircea_popescu: take voorhees! in 2013 he was great -- not entirely retarded kid, some business experience (earned in daddy's shop, but
then again, so did
trump). way better
than 99% of all
those involved.
mircea_popescu: he's a
typical schmuck, a la jwz. wants a comfortable existence and really, all
these complicated shits scare him shitless.
mircea_popescu is
totally going
to stick
to
this format. maybe deGRasse account
TysonVerified and so on.
mircea_popescu: i
think it dates
to
the Surgeon General Warning's Verifiedaccount.
a111: Logged on 2017-08-24 15:48 mircea_popescu: nutty bullshit,
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin-cash/#markets is led (and mostly composed of) some unheard of "Exchange"
trading bitcoin crash for "krw", and pretending like
this exchange of items not worth money is worth dollars somehow. 104 mn of it, ROUNDLY like
that.
mircea_popescu: aha! isn't it funny who's
talking, and what
they're
talking about ?
mircea_popescu: (that's been
the big pantsuit
talking point, pushed for
the past week or so by
teh faux news orgs :
that
trump "fails
to lead" and
that
therefore and
thereby all sorts of others are "filling in
the void". very much in
the vein of alf's prediction)
mircea_popescu: you know, random fake media soap bubble fucking-loves-"leadership" in
the pantsuit sense of
teh
term
mircea_popescu: and in other lulz from
the swamp : "The divided United States of America will unite
today, sharing a cosmic event predicted by
the methods and
tools of science." apud Neil deGRasse
TysonVerified account.
mircea_popescu: so fucking
totally not a case of "here's my website, i write numbers into it" you wouldn't believe.
