mircea_popescu: i don't believe that.
mircea_popescu: hm, i guess actually you might not have the luxury to tell them to gtfo
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell phillipsjk: mircea_popescu, I disagree with the premise that wealth correlates strongly with intelligence. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs <<< reed the correct one : http://trilema.com/2014/that-aint-the-maslow-pyramid-yo/
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes et al: the tips i've given re: controlling memory fandango had better suffice. i'll post a buildroot for the pogo some time this week, but unfortunately i do not have time to do the whole thing personally
mircea_popescu: also there, " Bitcoin can be so complicated at times that even I have problems getting all the facts."
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu and anyone else waiting for s.nsa broadcast - it will appear shortly after i get a little sleep now. can't believe i blew a whole saturday on the pocket node thing.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: i'm guessing that they go to special schools
mircea_popescu: i tell you, blond inch tall figurines drawn on a EGA screen waving about swords are no basis for a financial system.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I think it was some sort of Pro-Brewster agitprop
mircea_popescu: i don't even ?!
mircea_popescu: mebbe i don't understand so well what you're asking
mircea_popescu: i dunno how this'd practically be stuff like tax filings, court can and does ask the irs for that.
BingoBoingo: Ah, I'll source the Something Awful ones when I find a working login. 2 and 4 though. From the same post on the Butterfly Labs forum.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I think he was if my memory works, but... confirming involves wading way deep into the bitcointalk altcoin section
BingoBoingo: Did I get all of the quotes right on the puzzle?
BingoBoingo: If I recall correctly he was a "dev" back in ancient times
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I believe it was Artforz
punkman: oh sweet found what I was looking for https://github.com/scaidermern/audria
TheNewDeal: ;;later tell TomServo I'm around town tomorrow if you'd like to meet up.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: i mean, i get it, it's become scarcely distinguishable from other pumpcoinz << know teh seinfeld effect ?
mircea_popescu: cazalla: he's just the first iteration of garza <<< this angle i can definitely see.
danielpbarron: are cellular automata easy to verify? I mean, work backwards to the start point
asciilifeform: i feel like i spent at least a decade.
mircea_popescu: i thought it was much much longer ago than fucken march last.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: i once suggested, semi-seriously, a proofofworkfunktion based on cellular automata << i recall our discussing this, in the very logs! years ago!
pete_dushenski: punkman: i spent the last week trying to do the same
punkman: I'm gonna try to setup turdatronic bitcoind on VPS. Is there an easy way to monitor and log IO for just the bitcoind process?
pete_dushenski: lol i was already laughed out by the time he took the microphone
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron: i've seen a few "just sold all my BTC for Litecoin because MP is mean" posts << and yet https://bitbet.us/bet/1098/ltc-to-fall-below-half-a-bitcent-before/
pete_dushenski: that sammy was a converted member of the tribe, i did not
pete_dushenski: the mode i knew
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron: i was just wondering if a random tails user was aware of that sort of thing, or if they just downloaded it because freetalklive mentioned it << you know the answer to that q.
phillipsjk: I can probably make it any size you want.
phillipsjk: I think this counts as "tradition": http://www.hystericalfeminisms.com/consent/
phillipsjk: decimation, sure. Would have to be tomorrow though. Would like 50MB be enough? (Ie: before I switched out the 10Mbps hub)
ben_vulpes: i wanted it running in the context of cron, so i'll probably have to do some shooping of stuff around.
assbot: The Frogs - I'm Sad, My Goat Just Died Today - YouTube ... ( http://bit.ly/1z0fV3T )
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i've already lost days to shutting the thing down forcefully, i'm determined to not waste any more time with things that can be automated.
phillipsjk: I did not look too closely, but saw UDP fragment flood with some ICMP messages (to try to track my connectivity?).
asciilifeform: phillipsjk: it will be easier to explain just what it was, if i & the rest can view them at our leisure in 'wireshark'
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: thing is, i want it to shut down cleanly and reboot shortly after it exits cleanly.
phillipsjk: My router reported a "smurf" attack, but I think it is a mis-diagnosis.
phillipsjk: All 3 addresses I mentioned were from /16 netblocks.
phillipsjk: I am not sure it was a true amplification. I suspect it was a flase positive because the addresses ended in .255
phillipsjk: yes I found relevant text on the log from the 21st.
phillipsjk: Oh maybe I did not search back far enough, Was referring to this: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=29-01-2015#997251 ☝︎
phillipsjk: That reminds me, I noticed the logs have comments from "noisy" people trimmed.
asciilifeform: jurov: so far i've managed perhaps 2 messages in, out of five times this many attempts.
phillipsjk: Exposing UPnP to the internet defies all common sense. Add to that, many of the Pwnt routers appear to be in China, I am going to call it a deliberate back-door on the part of the manufacturer.
phillipsjk: I also wanted to comment that behavior that seem stupid from the outside is sometimes completely rational. Quoting MP: 'last time we diagnosed [the DDOS bot] it was mostly unpnp pwnt routers that yielded it. long known as a problem, little to do about it because "must have lusers on the internet"' http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=29-01-2015#997218 (as an example) ☝︎
asciilifeform: phillipsjk: without weighing in on the statement, i'd like to point out that you should have gone straight to 'there are priorities other than wealth/status', rather than trying to bolster the argument with 'proof by authority' using the authority of a fellow who pulled it all out of his arse
phillipsjk: I accept that some people are smarter than others. That does not automatically imply that the goal of all smart people is to gain wealth and status.
phillipsjk: Sometimes I think mental illness is a rational response to life events.
phillipsjk: so in a word yes, I know the fixed hierarchy is largely fiction.
phillipsjk: mircea_popescu, I disagree with the premise that wealth correlates strongly with intelligence. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs predicts that people will largely ignore trying to gain Esteem while being pre-occupied with finding food, shelter and companionship.

decimation: yeah I'm pretty sure he's built a half-ass 'sigma-delta' adc
decimation: I'm considering purchasing some real estate
pete_dushenski: I would recommend you sell your bitcoins and buy your alts you were just pumping , because holding onto MPcoin won't be wise. At least with litecoin and peercoin you will lose your investments at a slower pace.
asciilifeform: mats: but all of these things considered, it is probably the least terrifyingly bad trng i've seen so far on the post-snowden market
asciilifeform: mats: i see no evidence of shield, or provisions for one
pete_dushenski: and now lee is presumably sipping mai tais somewhere because i swear he hasn't made a peep in 12 months
cazalla: no proof of course but i wouldn't put it past a guy to do that.. a guy that is willing to get up in front of a room and admit what he says isn't true but that it's OK because "marketing"
cazalla: BingoBoingo, i've heard that as well and i suspect he used his brother's exchange to offload his early coins to chinese suckers, that's what that whole bitcoin/litecoin brothers reunited bullshit was about, the fucking gall of that guy http://media.coindesk.com/2014/03/Banner_en_BTCChina.jpg
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i did not know this, but it isn't very surprising.
cazalla: of course, which is why i got into it to begin with but in hindsight, just sour grapes at missing cheaper bitcoin
asciilifeform: i mean, i get it, it's become scarcely distinguishable from other pumpcoinz
cazalla: asciilifeform, i'm pretty sure every altcoin always launches with the idea of being different to every other altcoin
asciilifeform: i can't honestly say that i care very much why.
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: the way i understand, it was mainly intended to banish asic, but for some reason known only to the author, did not really try in earnest
cazalla: so no, i don't buy that litecoin was anything more than the creation of your stereotypical chink who knocks shit off
asciilifeform: i once suggested, semi-seriously, a proofofworkfunktion based on cellular automata
danielpbarron: i've seen a few "just sold all my BTC for Litecoin because MP is mean" posts
decimation: they built aqua-ducts that lasted 2000 years - I'm not betting that 'portland cement' will last as long
danielpbarron: i was just wondering if a random tails user was aware of that sort of thing, or if they just downloaded it because freetalklive mentioned it
onewhosits: danielpbarron. No, actually i didn't. Should've. Is there a common problem with modified tailos installs?
onewhosits: Good info friends. I'm currently using my home ip so im good. interesting though
mats: i'd avoid doing anything sensitive over Tor, though
onewhosits: oh i see. is it risky to use these channels? i run tailsos when i need to
asciilifeform: and is that a closed-source turd i see.
mats: i've heard good things about saleae logic, have you used it?
mats: i'm looking forward to the outcome of this
mircea_popescu: i hope they had a new york clause in their contract, and griesa gets to judge it
danielpbarron: didn't i read something like that already today?
mircea_popescu: cazalla: but i think we've also refined the type of content we publish << i guess that's gonna keep getting redefined, iut's what living things do.
teward: and then i'd have my oline revoked for overusing /kline xD
teward: if i were freenode staffer cholby would be getting klined on sight every single time
mircea_popescu: did i get it wrong ?
assbot: Logged on 30-01-2015 21:27:59; kakobrekla: i know changing names is not a good practice, but perhaps for the sake of sync we could allow to update your name once (given properly signed request from adequate gpg key)
teward: and since the nick i auth up as in otc was taken, there's a problem
teward: but now i can't !up
teward: and i'll yell at kakobrekla later
teward: BingoBoingo: sounds like I need to rape freenode with a stick again
asciilifeform: 'In other words: the choice of C is the only sane choice. I know Miles Bader jokingly said "to piss you off", but it's actually true. I've come to the conclusion that any programmer that would prefer the project to be in C++ over C is likely a programmer that I really *would* prefer to piss off, so that he doesn't come and screw up any project I'm involved with.'
Guest18566: wtf i ident'd
teward: as i said, the bot is broke
teward: BingoBoingo: and it says I can't
teward: so i learned something - assbot doesn't realize I have +2 level2 rep with it o.o
cazalla: but i think we've also refined the type of content we publish over the past few months
cazalla: i guess so but first 2 weeks of jan were slow just as the last 2 weeks of december were
cazalla: mircea_popescu, what i don't get is that on reddit, you see the idea of a paywall and microtransactions always discussed as bitcoin's killer app and yet when they come across it being implemented, they cry scam
