dub: erryday I thank Al Gore
cazalla: but i must credit danielpbarron for the idea as first saw him using that to denote which users were coming here from which forum
cazalla: asciilifeform: aha finally figured out why. nm <<< i named it qntranet so it was obvious user is coming from the website instead of random joe blow
mircea_popescu: i dun understand ;/
Adlai: if i wanted comeback i'd have asked your mother to spit in a cup!
Adlai: because i can play the "how old do i look to you?" game
Adlai: i have realized that i do not regret being born a man
Adlai: btw i would like a statement struck from the logs
Adlai: even i feel old compared to this channel
Adlai: and i'd also managed to forget bitcoin already, silly me
Adlai: bitcoin existed and i'd heard of it! but not #b-a
Adlai: this was before i started the army
Adlai: #b-a didn't exist when i failed clearance
mircea_popescu: that's what i'd do as minister of war i mean peace. fucking power suits. flamethrower in one arm, minigun in other, go for it.
Adlai: i've been out for almost two years, pls.
thestringpuller: i agree
mircea_popescu: the only thing i like about honey as money is that it gives kids botulism.
mircea_popescu: the simplified model i'd readily think of being something more akin to "well currently, you people have some sort of control, based on contracts and fiat currency and so on. what we kids are doing is making an entirely new system of control, where you will be entirely powerless.
Adlai: i'd rather explain derive bitcoin with strangers than discuss the weather
mircea_popescu: "for all the effort he's spent with me, i'd be pouring drinks if it weren't for my own work"
mircea_popescu: lol i hope you bitchslapped him
mircea_popescu: i mean whatever, gotta talk about something,
Adlai: i was also forced into this conversation initially, my free choice was just continuing it rather than changing subject
Adlai: well i was thinking about this afterwards, wondering what the use of spending ~15 minutes explaining a technology to people who made every indication of not being its target audience
mircea_popescu: i don't go about bothering random folk about sumerian tablets, fascinating as they may be ?
mircea_popescu: i dun get why you think either conversation's at all productive ?
Elian11: but i know its bad
Elian11: the only thing is... i kinda like Yahoo chocolate milk
Adlai: asswot is my new best friend. i come in here, head brimming with stupid, dribble it out all over the channel. then by the time i'm authed i realize none of it is worth repeating.
mircea_popescu: you'll prolly have to get it with the slavegirl au paquet, cuz i dunno anyone makes such comercially.
Elian11: ahh, i can try to get something like that tomorrow to compare cost
mircea_popescu: what if i like salmon paste on my blt ?
cazalla: thestringpuller, did you manage to get that article done on reddit while i was zzz?
mircea_popescu: i don't think anything i eat is standard enough for such procedures.
Elian11: what can i say i like BLT
mircea_popescu: Elian11 i dun get it, how much should it cost ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no but i mean so... ?
Elian11: ne way, my favourite sandwitch is a BLT. Some clown in the USA tried to charge me 7USD for one once. I almost smacked hin upside the head for that.
thestringpuller: Elian11: publix for the mediocre versions. but i'll go to higher scale grocery stores
Elian11: I'm on a trip, and i think most things are a bargan at that rate
danielpbarron: i think it's like decrypting a plaintext with the private key
mircea_popescu: thanks. i'll be off for a bit tho.
assbot: hi there.in the spirit of full disclosure, i like to start with the things people are like ... ( http://bit.ly/1yg5tn7 )
mircea_popescu: totally unrelated : if anyone's looking for "independent escort/in a perfect world, someday i will meet a kinky geeky creature and gravidophiliac with a penchant for ANR"... > http://www.collarspace.com/actiasluna
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i actually recall this was a thing
ben_vulpes: i'd suggest you consider the immense feat of reigning in the firearm use.
mircea_popescu: no no, listen, i mean my words. fireworks. that the stuff available isn't fireworks, that's fine. still social engineering
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes drunk idiots and gunpowder. i stand by it.
mircea_popescu: i get it, fireworks = redneck, bla bla.
mircea_popescu: lizard empire very large, very porous, generally i get the good bits before they fully propagated even. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: anyway, i'm curious what the gossipd "counter" strategy is going to be. 've not had the pleasure of finding anything yet.
thestringpuller: "Unless that's what you want, who am I to tell you how to live your life."
mircea_popescu: there is going to be a transfer of power, and the only thing demuring can possibly accomplish is make it bloody. which i don't mind, because old people are too old as it is. even them out a little.
hanbot: well, ought to be for someone more alert than i
hanbot: aha, i see. those are some highly meaningful quotation marks, around "life" then.
mircea_popescu: Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life."
hanbot: mircea_popescu perhaps i'm reading poorly, but not sure i grok the foreboding re choosing life: "But if you choose "life", remember one important point from Shrem's misadventure :" --if the dead are the old reptiles a la newhouse, clinging to relevancy, wouldn't choosing life be the sane, independent choice?
thestringpuller: i guess his point was too many idiots in one place means statistically someone is bound to do something stupid
thestringpuller: I recall bob_allison's submission having 100+ "karma"
mircea_popescu: either after or before i dun recall.
thestringpuller: I can start working on that.
thestringpuller: I don't even tweet but I know shits going down when you do mention on me.
xanthyos: i now have 2.91 btc in my control and still don't feel super rich
xanthyos: i guess 300 wasn't low enough a buy price
thestringpuller: all the comments are still there and stuff. And i'm sure bob alison still has his karma
mircea_popescu: i dunno why they persist in thinking that it actually matters how it LOOKS, but hey.
mircea_popescu: "Canellas wrote to defendant Warren, “Great job dude. We kicked ass! Time to get paid.” About ten minutes later, defendant Warren responded, “Hey man, I don’t know where you come up with some of this stuff, but you saved the day. It’s been a rough year but it’s been damn good. Nice work dude. Let’s get paid!” Canellas and defendant Warren then left the office to enjoy New Year’s Eve."
assbot: In this moment of loss I would like to stand in solidarity with my people by saying "Je suis Karpeles". : Buttcoin ... ( http://bit.ly/17DLBSc )
davout: http://www.reddit.com/r/Buttcoin/comments/2s8ryw/in_this_moment_of_loss_i_would_like_to_stand_in/
cazalla: well, i got a couple bottles of dimple 12y on special last week so polished one bottle off at the other nights drinking session and now i have this bottle but i'll stop after this one and go to bed
cazalla: but i swear that is it!
cazalla: i'm only having one, no excess drinking tonight
Naphex: adlai, what i'd do i import the btc-e cert manually and remove other trusted sources
adlai: i'm almost certainly being MITMed (who isn't?), and i'd be surprised if the men in the middle are shitty enough to leak it as protocol errors
Naphex: adlai: as far as I see, btc-e definitely has SSLv3 disabled. So if you got that message you're either being MITM'd and the trapper device is failing mac'ing messages, or who knows what. you shouldn't be receiving that error
BingoBoingo: irdial: i i HATE
BingoBoingo: In lynsie though I have cultivated the ultimate Germanic storm trooper.
BingoBoingo: I am sads. Lynsie makes me more sads.
BingoBoingo: I hate anglos
BingoBoingo: I hate anglos
BingoBoingo: I hate angles
BingoBoingo: I hate
BingoBoingo: I
cazalla: BingoBoingo, you make more sense drunk than when i am sober
cazalla: allow me to try that again... it is so gay how things are run over at twitter and i will not conform just to get it to operate properly
cazalla: it is so gay how the run things at twitter that i will not confirm just to get it to operate properly
cazalla: i tried to keep him on the titty but bugger bites down and makes missus cry
cazalla: you don't want to wake up feeling as i did a few days ago
punkman: I have a couple old, very slightly radioactive camera lenses
felipelalli: Let me ask you guys a (stupid?) question: "hidden hash power" can be a problem? Suppose I start to invest in mining hardware but I do not turn on my machines. No one will know I am accumulating hash power. So, after a while, if I turn on all my machines I'd have - let's imagine - 80% of the hash rate. But it would be too late to revert the situation by the community. If big miners start to turn the machines off, they can not be hiding power?
ben_vulpes: (dun really think the two models would interact much, but also i don't know much microbio)
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> a bum, like a total, street dwelling bum, accosts some random guy begging. and the random guy goes like "ain't got nothing now", and hands him his coke bottle. << ok so i've got this crazy pet notion about maté and viral load
cazalla: tripleslash, i already agreed, merely pointed out it could be an indicator, one piece of the puzzle so to speak if one was inclined to dig further, which i am not
tripleslash: stumping for con artists was a past hobby of mine, although I didn't know it at the time.
tripleslash: nope. I was attempting to demonstrate why 12 hours isn't enough time to accurately measure hashrate, but apparently failed.
tripleslash: BingoBoingo, I missed that. I've been away for a while, catching up.
cazalla: undata, i want to yell at someone too so it works out
BingoBoingo: I am nigger man, chasing the prey through the bread fruit plants
ben_vulpes: "I wanted to spend my bitcoin immediately, that very night, but I was at a loss." << the fiat mindset's strong with these folk
tripleslash: I'm glad I didn't waste my time reading it then.
