asciilifeform: i experimented with using a 'refresh-starved' dram for computation.
asciilifeform: decimation: overpowers << skeptical until demonstrated in field (i.e. x86 pc) rather than laboratory (fpga with custom dram controller)
decimation: slur << that's the dumbest thing I've heard yet
cazalla: i remember reading about these u99 guys, have another project named coinmesh
asciilifeform: i deliberately didn't even bring up the whole thing's (almost certain) reliance on tor and related idiocy
asciilifeform: 'slur' << i love how these nitwits show no symptoms whatsoever of having bothered to study how secrets were sold historically, from babylon to cold war, etc
Adlai: i'm almost curious to see what this download is
jurov: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8788532 if anyone cares, i don't have hn account
cazalla: thestringpuller: I guess it technically is already XMas for cazalla <<< 830am xmas morning but still, cuppa tea and read logs before my first family xmas opening gifts
dignork: well, sure, but these reads need to happen nearby executed code, which by random error turns into something executable, etc. Just can't construct any scenario it realisticly happens. But I might be wrong.
dignork: yep, so it reducues random occurences, but i still don't see any good attacks with it.
dignork: decimation: cool paper, scary, otherwise I didn't bother to calcualte probabilities for uncontrolled random scenario, or non-DOS attack vector.
BingoBoingo: I thought CoinDesk was still a VC thing
davout: BingoBoingo: i really like your articles
BingoBoingo: Honestly I think they do it to get rid of whatever wine wasn't selling.
BingoBoingo: My favorite liquor store for the second year in a row gifted me with a bottle of wine and a girly calendar when I came in for cigarettes.
BingoBoingo: So Today I came out once again net positive in the course of my Christmas shopping.
kakobrekla: i paid 500 btc for the car but no taxes.
jurov: yea i know. i am fine with 25k eur before taxes this year, even paid part of a new car from that
kakobrekla: i could live on even less than this.
kakobrekla: fed i mean.
jurov: lol i'm a miser too... why you though otherwise?
dignork: hey, i'm not a miser, just not too wealthy :)
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I don't think people really stay in this channel unless they are misers.
jurov: good to know, i'm not going either
dignork: :( sorry, I'm leaving states in a few days, gift cards are of no use for me, otherwise I'd buy some from you.
dignork: jurov: sorry to hear that, i like coinbr
jurov: and i had inquiries like "we want api for coinbr" me: "it is possible, just very ratelimited... let's do it together, can you do 100BTC volume?"
jurov: it means...same as before. you notice glitches, i'll exchange gpg blobs with mircea and eventually fix it
jurov: and i don't mean puny dns errors, but stuff like vanishing orders
thestringpuller: I guess it technically is already XMas for cazalla
BingoBoingo: I guess I'll have to dearch nao
BingoBoingo: joecool: I don't have problems with big UX changes. I care more about what is happening and why. Unsolder the microphone and camera in old blackberry, works as a pager like god intended. Unsolder camera and microphone in shitty LG android phone doesn't work as pager or play angry birds!
joecool: otherwise i never would have considered blackberry, it's a shame they have a worthless marketing division
BingoBoingo: joecool: Ah, before I did BBOS 7 I was on Symbian whatever and then Android.
joecool: oh see i hated BBOS7, i came from the harmattan/maemo background prior
BingoBoingo: joecool: When BBOS 7 seemed doomed I just went flipphone
joecool: i like my Z10 tbh, only thing i'd improve is better battery life, i'm a bit concerned by some of the new "features" coming down in 10.3.x releases
BingoBoingo: I have to confess the new blackberry classic does tempt... But for extra antifeatures over flip phone is unappealing.
asciilifeform: anything that does not conform to this principle, i argue is ipso facto not secure for any reasonable definition of the word.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I thought "trojan" was falling out of fashion because fashion is now to go cloud where it is given that Eve already has root.
decimation: asciilifeform: I think it's the case that there is (or was) some meta-usg lab that could conceive and develop secure terminal - perhaps already has
decimation: asciilifeform: I agree with your hypothesis in that I think USG genuinely guides the computer industry into insecurity
thestringpuller: I'm pretty sure there is some privatize black site that is superior to USG version.
decimation: eh, I guess I'm not that cynical. I believe that any scrap of evidence that can be used to stir shit up will be used by usg to sell an agenda
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: For all I know Snowden was a plant for the purpose of stalling and disappearing aspiring "second" leaker
BingoBoingo: decimation: I mean if you do produce something with your angle doesn't have to be a long piece. Just give it some bite.
BingoBoingo: decimation: If you can find an angle that makes the mere filing of a lawsuit interesting write it up for qntra and claim some shares. Otherwise I'm going to keep digging for more skidmarks on Preet's undies.
BingoBoingo: SuperEddy: Repent what? I am my own God and already forgiven all of my transgressions.
BingoBoingo: lol, I thought about newsing that up but... Does every rural person who files a lawsuit deserve their own story then?
kakobrekla: i also dont do it. cause if have half of your upload and a few tb of stuff.
punkman: I usually have around 2mbit upload
punkman: https://attic-backup.org/ was also a contender, but I don't trust it
austeritysucks: so it has worked fine for me but i have yet to withdraw so i can't fully vouch
cazalla: i have things to do, nice talking austeritysucks
austeritysucks: cazalla, i've been using it to eliminate volatility in receiving btc payments
austeritysucks: cazalla, but yea i dont want to get horse in front of carriage i need to make this exchange system working better before i worry about expanding customers right
punkman: I'm thinking zpaq > gpg > rsync
austeritysucks: but i try my best to encourage people, set them up a hotwallet, shoot them $1 in btc or something ,and get their lips wet
austeritysucks: because i think if at least the key:btc exchange works with 1 steam bot then it will be easy to expand nad once expanded people will adopt BTC for the purpose of being able to cahs out to real money so drama-free
austeritysucks: but for now i want to get the steam bot C# code working and then the front-end listings/btc purchase php stuff
punkman: sends me 3 SMS every time I login/buy/withdraw
austeritysucks: oh nevermind i typo'd sorry
austeritysucks: punkman, is it a secret place? i google circle btc and get nothing
cazalla: i don't really give two shits if circle gets carded to death, i can buy with my own cc in the meantime
austeritysucks: cazalla, the majority of people prefer paypal over bitcoin in the community unfortuantely, so the big issue is getting people to adopt bitcoin, i was suggesting that an easy way to promote adoption is to get people to be removed from the btc payment mechanism and have a userfirendl front end that is like using CC, but behind the scenes iti s buying BTC, transferring BTC (and maybe even
cazalla: i don't follow, how does that bother me if i already have bitcoin and i want to buy/sell butterfly knives?
cazalla: i'm sure there are some kids who during bored summer holidays will figure out how to get bitcoin and buy/sell habbo items and shit like that
cazalla: give it time, it'll come i think
cazalla: dunno why uptake is so slow by gamers, i'd have killed for something like this back in everquest
cazalla: i think maybe you will see more of bitcoin in that as time goes on
cazalla: ah soz, i was thinking cd keys not key keys
austeritysucks: cazalla, i handle transactions through a subreddit and csgolounge
mircea_popescu: usually it ends up a little later with "here's the thing we were talking about, except i built it inside a submarine just in case. and here's some beer i brewed and by the way, do you know candi and brandi ? they're twins."
mircea_popescu: i like when he says that.
kakobrekla: ill see what i can do.
mircea_popescu: i mean, suppose you do that. so ? people can just reup outside of your control, all you achieve is piss off the wot list.
joecool: i guess
mircea_popescu: i mean
mircea_popescu: what am i missing ?!
mike_c: i believe it's infinite
mike_c: btw kakobrekla, i was thinking possible an easy solution to the whole problem of "negrated person won't leave" might be another command. like !recheck Anduck. then if his l2 is no good assbot boots him.
mircea_popescu: i wonder how many people noticed the subtle change from freedom of speech to an alleged "right" of free speech.
mircea_popescu: or at least, i would have been.
mircea_popescu: yeah you and a 2nd that never actually got to go on a jury didn't get anything. i think mebbe it was jurov ?
kakobrekla: seems like im listed in the judge list as well. just ftr i did not receive any compensation for my non-work (as i was not involved in a case).
rithm: i'm not sure how someone'e else lack of decision making skills and causality and what-not becomes my failure
mircea_popescu: i never had any idea, but liek... teh most fundamentally humane thing actually is going "hey, try again"
rithm: i still haz it if you want it back
mircea_popescu: which i can respek.
rithm: i can look up the txid if you need
rithm: i still have the full channel logs
rithm: that's some sort of twisting of the facts. pay me to discuss it with you and I might.
rithm: http://trilema.com/2013/rota-post-mortem/ i find personally offensive still
jborkl: i was really bored
jborkl: thestringpuller, i watched four episodes last night.
mircea_popescu: i imagine neflix goes gangbusters mid to late decvember
cornfeedhobo: i dont recall
cornfeedhobo: thestringpuller: he is trustworthy because someone doxxed him a while back. even posted pictures of his mom. I never got the sense that it was genuine, but i could be wrong.
thestringpuller: lol i think he is rated lower than magicaltux
