TomServo: Rozal | I won't return anyones negatives << Turns out, not so much. On gribble's side of the wot anyway.
mircea_popescu: i mean, if you're going to do it, why risk you just lose an eye ? survivors even after a 12 gauge shot exist.
davout: so, if i understand correctly, the way this thing works is that it attracts moar miners through the bonus mechanism, which in turn contributes to killing-off gavincoin amirite
mircea_popescu: i had thought different chains had to be forked to mm because of their different origin. but that's not what happens in merged mining at all.
mircea_popescu: hm. turns out i don't actually understand what merged mining actually is.
davout: or i mean, is actually feasible
davout: i don't think the way you propose to use merge mining actually works
mircea_popescu: i guess this "merge mining' business needs moar looking into.
BingoBoingo: <davout> mircea_popescu: there is this auxillary proof of work notion, "Not to be confused with the "previous block". This is a block that is structured for the parent blockchain (i.e. the prev_block hash points to the prior block on the parent blockchain). The header of this block is part of the AuxPOW Block in the auxiliary blockchain. " << Basically this is my understanding. Both Bitcoin's would insist on being the "Parent" unl

bertani: davout: I don't get your point, why shouldn't it?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Best I can tell it's a nobody. But they had a bunch of perfect ratings from tiny trades.
davout: so i don't really see how it'd be possible to merge mine two bitcoin forks
davout: mircea_popescu: also i read a bit more about merged mining yesteday and today, especially how merge-mining namecoin came to be
mircea_popescu: Rozal: despite showing humility, he refused to remove his ratings - so I over reacted << is this klye ?
mircea_popescu: Rozal: I apologize, yes im a big liar who got mad because cazalla messes up my perfect ratings << wut the fuck going on there ?!
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo: http://qntra.net/2015/01/lizardstresser-hacked-customer-details-leaked/ << lmao epic scoop. << It's the one I've been waiting for. Anticipated the thing only meriting an epitaph.
mircea_popescu: i mean... the circumstances are such that he'd have been killed, and dunno yet if powder residue. literlaly nothing indicates a suicide.
thestringpuller: i think they are self serving "goodness".
mircea_popescu: i wonder why all these derps ranting on and on about "empathy" never manage to produce one. imagine a victim like that.
thestringpuller: "Cause I'ma cut your dick off in your sleep."
rithm: idk where i can buy tide 50% off
rithm: i live under a rock on the internet

rithm: that's why i notice
rithm: fwiw i've had issues with starbucks gift cards with this user i suspected fraud
mats: i guess someone squatted cazalla's nick?
mats: i musta consumed tens of thousands of dollars in beans and k-cups doing that.
Rozal: despite showing humility, he refused to remove his ratings - so I over reacted
Rozal: teward: I was mad that 'cazalla' ruined my ratings because he didn't like my jokes
Rozal: I won't return anyones negatives
davout: Rozal: time to get a new wot identity I guess :-)
BingoBoingo: Rozal: I am fine with you rating me -10 because you dislike me, but your serious falsification... my rating of you will endure.
Rozal: I should just grow up
Rozal: I apologize, yes im a big liar who got mad because cazalla messes up my perfect ratings ☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎
danielpbarron: i need to step up my game
danielpbarron: I forgive you Rozal, but if that was an attempt to get me to remove my rating, it was misguided
danielpbarron: !rate Rozal -2 contradicted himself http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=A5GMizeN
danielpbarron: oo i get to try out the new rating system
assbot: <Rozal> h <Rozal> hi <Rozal> i hate people who abuse the rating system <Rozal - Pastebin.com ... ( http://bit.ly/1CGXr7N )
danielpbarron: Two blondes walk into a bar; one says to the other, "I slept with two Brazilian men last night." The other replies, "Wow! I've never even met that many people!"
fluffypony: http://i.imgur.com/xcuQVjY.png
mircea_popescu: i dun think these people comprehend what slave means.
mats: "Sometimes... I look out the window and think... We're one cyberwar away from falling over. This can all be undone by a few lines of code. And maybe it will. Maybe then we will repent. For the arrogance that we could live so tall, with so little thought to what supports beneath."
mircea_popescu: ". I asked if there were any resources to help us and they declined to mention even one. This was despite my protests that we currently do not even have enough money for rent and food.
mats: my grandmother got a phone call from 'a police sergeant' saying i was in county prison and needed to be bailed out before being inevitably deflowered
mircea_popescu: that's what i'd like. for all retail establishments to get a pillory per 1mn yearly custom. then do some customer support in the form of, if you piss anyone off while on the premises, 10 minutes' flogging.
mircea_popescu: "Before all of this mess we were already financially struggling. To say that we were living paycheck-to-paycheck is an understatment. My boyfriend is currently underemployed and in school. I gave up 90% of the hours at my job in order to take this fake nanny job. I tried to explain all of this to the credit union but they were very callous with us saying that our priority needed to be on finding better paying jobs so
mircea_popescu: " These online scammers extensively preyed on my trusting nature. I was mailed a "secure, verified" check for $2750 that I deposited into my account and was promptly tricked into sending almost all of this money to "the toy shop owner" so that he could ship the toys. "
mircea_popescu: oh, "it's satire" i see.
Vexual: i'd like to try souvlaki roo
mircea_popescu: "Unfortunately," I said, "at present the Hague Tribunal is not armed with the powers of an international assize court, nor is it qualified to place offenders, crowned or otherwise, in the dock. But don't you think that in the evolution of society the constitution of such a criminal court is a necessity?"
punkman: i had kangaroo the other day, better than I expected
Vexual: i'm saving up for an mpex acct
ben_vulpes: * asciilifeform recalls once reading that 'their' is 'obsolete,' and that the truly progressive (tm) types have made up new pronouns, 'ze', 've', fuck knows what els << i hold that "their" when used for a single entity is a crucifying offense
BingoBoingo: I mean their eyes even have turd shaped pupils
mats: http://i.imgur.com/21o3yku.jpg manually cranked .bait
mircea_popescu: "they will resurrect and give new currency to such things as those, or to any other things that count against me, but they will not mention any act of mine that is in my favor. I have spent more money on art than any other monarch of my time, and they know it. Do they speak of it, do they tell about it? No, they do not. They prefer to work up what they call "ghastly statistics" into offensive kindergarten object lesson
mircea_popescu: anyway, the 'kick the beast till it bites, then shoot it' observation is valid. i propose the solution is for the beast to threaten indefinitely.
mircea_popescu: i guess that's where it traces properly huh.
mircea_popescu: They tell how England required of me a Commission of Inquiry into Congo atrocities, and how, to quiet that meddling country, with its disagreeable Congo Reform Association, made up of earls and bishops and John Morleys and university grandees and other dudes, more interested in other people's business than their own, I appointed it. Did it stop their mouths? No, they merely pointed out that it was a commission composed
mircea_popescu: They tell it all: how I am wiping a nation of friendless creatures out of existence by every form of murder, for my private pocket's sake. But they never say, although they know it, that I have labored in the cause of religion at the same time and all the time, and have sent missionaries there (of a "convenient stripe," as they phrase it), to teach them the error of their ways and bring them to Him who is all mercy and
mats: i bet the smell is awful
asciilifeform: although there are interesting 'demo' cases. i once saw a set of photographs of a 'work of art' - a small coffee table, with a bioreactor. a lure of some electronic kind (acoustic?) led mice up a hollow leg and into the reactor. there, they would ferment, and charge a battery that would run the next iteration of the mouse-lift-zap-ferment cycle.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is a good objection. which is why i'm not fixated on ecology.
decimation: I thought the point of the biodiesiel was to encourage the others
mircea_popescu: this is why i am not in principle opposed to ecology.
mircea_popescu: so then i stole her ?
mircea_popescu: that one i can see.
mircea_popescu: and no government yet has had the audacity to go to a group of self impressed idiots and tell them the sort of thing i say
mircea_popescu: now, i wouldn't be in favour of this as a general thing,
mircea_popescu: besides, i don't like urinals and women's usually cleaner.
mircea_popescu: why would i want to see a bunch of schlongs ?!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i used the girl's locker room in highschool, and i hung out with the chicks in their yoga class too.
danielpbarron: someone pasted that link in an irc channel for "reddit christians" from which i was eventually kicked for disputing their claim that The Bible is pro-lgbt
mircea_popescu: all i see is progressing courtly fashions.
mircea_popescu: if it is i dun see it
decimation: well, if 'making it not last' is the political strategy, then I suggest "stand back and watch them fail"
asciilifeform: i suspect that linus does, in fact, understand that he 'can also have problems.'
mircea_popescu: i can then move to give linux more weight, and so on.
assbot: 'I taught Shanley Kane how to troll, and I'm sincerely sorry' - Breitbart ... ( http://bit.ly/1Az0gFc )
BingoBoingo: http://www.breitbart.com/london/2015/01/17/i-taught-shanley-kane-how-to-troll-and-im-sincerely-sorry/
BingoBoingo: versity then. I regret the error, and have updated the post to reflect that.
BingoBoingo: Highligh:>> UPDATE: ModelViewCulture CEO Shanley Kane has asked me to describe her not as a "diversity advocate" or "diversity activist" and to instead identify her as the co-founder and CEO of a media company that is better than the one I work for. According to its website, ModelViewCulture is "an independent media platform focused on the intersection of technology, culture and diversity." So: nothing to do with advocating for di
BingoBoingo: It's the most unGawker thing I've ever seen on Gawker
mircea_popescu: http://33.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9vorgq3x51rcmfhmo1_250.gif << saving this for later, in case i need to illustrate VC investment or something.
kakobrekla: i mean
asciilifeform: i did figure out why it dug up my old article
mircea_popescu: and seeing how the guilty parties are not here present to defend themselves, i see little trouble going with your theory.
kakobrekla: or i dunno
kakobrekla: i had fun once
PeterL: I was thinking more of something for us to have fun rather than trying to make money
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: something simple like playbot, i want to play chess << already pretty much done with this in GPG. Needs to be vetted thoroughly tho before any widespread release
mircea_popescu: no i mean specifically irc bots
PeterL: There are placed like yahoo games, I don't know of any text-based games
mircea_popescu: something simple like playbot, i want to play chess with peterl. to which it responds "peterl are you playing with mircea_popescu ?" and then it looks for the moves, updates an inner state and keeps spitting out pngs of the board as links.
mircea_popescu: i guess that'd work well enough huh ?
mircea_popescu: actually... should i put in a job for a games bot ? could start it with monopoly. it just keeps dropping pngs of the table after each player's roll
PeterL: xanthyos:i'd like to play monopoly with #b-a members if we could figure out a place to do the dice << scoopbot started as a bot to roll dice for me and my friend RPGing over IRC
