decimation: even in the us that was gone by the 70's I think
cazalla: i think that was phased out mid 90s decimation
kakobrekla: as promised i have setup a mirror for ze logs - http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com - hosting for the mirror gratuitously provided by mircea_popescu
BingoBoingo: I feel gypped, the Kaufman stadium fountains appear to be off.
decimation: I have a friend who works in a hospital indian health service (branch of usg). she says the majority of us indians are drunks
cazalla: decimation, they're not all bad, i had a good abo mate through school but once they hit 13, they just want to go lighting fires and breaking into corner shops etc etc sniffing a bit of 98 octane as well
thestringpuller: okay that's what BingoBoingo and I thought. thanks for clarifying.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: that's what I thought but based on these numbers...($2491 for ~13mn shares doesn't add up to the published market value as it looks like the ask value is ~ 8 cents a share)
asciilifeform: qnx << a very interesting item, and i loved playing with it when young, but it was inevitably bulldozed by the age of no-you-can't-make-money-selling-close-os-unless-you-re-apple-or-microshit
cazalla: i got a response from paydici if anyone was interested in yesterdays article http://qntra.net/2014/10/bitpay-to-assist-paydici-to-enable-bitcoin-based-recurring-billing/
joecool: BingoBoingo: i dunno, 10 still has that too
asciilifeform: i explained the floppy
asciilifeform: ^ i did point out.
bounce: well yeah I'm not too happy bb bought it up, no matter how good it'd be for them. qnx was a bit floundering though, that with everyone running off to leen0x and no real hardware incentive for what makes qnx special. just throw more hardware at the problem and it's sorted. (the beancounters think)
BingoBoingo: bounce: I imagine BitcoinNetwork, BitcoinBlockhandler, BitcoinWallet
jurov: i'll look into the mailman
danielpbarron: and by copies i mean cd sets
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: 5.5 is the first version after I cared to get the physical CD's
asciilifeform: i've bound an odd book here & there.
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: I may be able to fulfill your order with nubbins` help
BingoBoingo: <jurov> so you say what will be hosted - only list of patches and a script << I actually imagined set of books for the core an annumal supplement book of refinemnts
asciilifeform: since, at least in the mechanism i suggested, no message shall be ever published that is not signed, any reader can verify that the mailing list is authentic.
asciilifeform: the somewhere, incidentally, is a stable satoshi-based gizmo worth using as a base for rewrite (idk about other folks, i shall rewrite for my own pleasure if no one wants, once finished with current affairs) - and perhaps worth printing!
jurov: yes, i just wanted to test, as it says
assbot: Logged on 22-10-2014 20:33:59; asciilifeform: i suggest going with whoever had the mailing list idea. emphasize the 'we sign things and so mechanism doesn't matter' aspect.
asciilifeform: i guess there's the elementary fact that a 70 y.o. head of a firm cannot turn into a 20. y.o. apprentice again
BingoBoingo: Buy truck, drive to panama, 4 digit number to move truck around the Darien last time I priced it.
undata: jurov: I would say maybe leaving behind business contacts has a cost, but the internet solves that.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> mod6: me too, that threw me off. but maybe i did something silly with the install by creating a root account? i'm not super clued on deb... but it asked me to make a root account first, then a user account. so that was kinda bizzare to me. << no that's how debian did it for what, 10, 15 years ? << I thought it was just Ubuntu that only made a user account they'd turn into a super sudoer
mircea_popescu: i think the bar for thai citizenship is having sex with a trannie
undata: sadly I'm two steps removed
asciilifeform: i've been informed that the usual excursions where people take pregnant women to usa, have reversed.
asciilifeform: ireland, i think, too
mircea_popescu: mod6: me too, that threw me off. but maybe i did something silly with the install by creating a root account? i'm not super clued on deb... but it asked me to make a root account first, then a user account. so that was kinda bizzare to me. << no that's how debian did it for what, 10, 15 years ?
mircea_popescu: jurov oh i see
BingoBoingo: ;;later tell pete_dushenski I think the game was postponed
pete_dushenski: i'm off to watch grown ass men with skates chase a black disk around a frozen pond. enjoy your eve b-a!
mircea_popescu: i forget what this is called in us politics, but o yeah, "splitting the vote"
mircea_popescu: othernubs`: i thought medium was the sort of site where literally anyone can publish? <<< medium is, essentially, the sort of venue created to give the impression of a #b-a to the 99% idiots who can't tell the difference.
undata: mircea_popescu: that's that suicidal streak I was talking about
mircea_popescu: year, really, i wonder why the fuck is it that the best kids that the us can produce want to go help isis burn the whole world.
mircea_popescu: bounce: I don't care if maladjusted angry youths want to run away and make trouble in a war zone. I do care if they come back, recruit some more kids (to do the same), cause trouble, shoot some jews, what have you. << how else do you expect the shithole to be fixed ?
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu i'd be highly surprised.
mircea_popescu: i might review what this guy has to say sometime in 21xx, maybe.
nubbins`: http://i.imgur.com/TGgEW94.png
assbot: I was wondering when the rockstar economist Thomas Piketty would enter the climate debate... http://t.co/V2aOWzwWPQ http://t.co/vpt4SBE2w9
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo ya i don't mind it at all :)
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: It's a java turd. I holds keys with decreasing amounts of funds and handles a few adresses funds might still come to.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: And after that I wanted for nothing more from an SPV client
jurov: okay i see, there's lot of new code not properly reviewed
mircea_popescu: supposedly this was accidental. i never bought it.
BingoBoingo: nubbins`: The idea I floated last week was purple and orange, but cazalla reminded me colorblindness is a thing.
nubbins`: jurov http://i.imgur.com/8UeXsPU.png
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo ya i'm rocking 0.5.14
BingoBoingo: jurov: I think the evil is simply the distance + proximity to Hearn
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Well I use 0.5.11 because it is what still lets me use higher than pennies tx fees
jurov: and i asked last night, what's so evil about 0.8/9?
BingoBoingo: Also as I said last night, running the occasional 0.8.x node is polite...
pete_dushenski: so i'm guessing no spv will work on the bitcoin i ? so no more multibit?
jurov: i see no favicon
nubbins`: i'd guess the favicon even though it hasn't loaded for me yet
pete_dushenski: i, ii, iii, vi, v, etc.
BingoBoingo: I chaired the Science and Technology committee.
nubbins`: i was ethiopia
BingoBoingo: I hope
BingoBoingo: I'd more prefer a solution offered by a conveniece store chain I despise.
mike_c: yeah, i ran into it a couple years ago. seems to have lost steam with falling gas prices (shocking).
nubbins`: <+mircea_popescu> <asciilifeform> my mental concept of freedom is more or less synonymous with never setting an alarm clock again. << ha! not even for say, a comet ? <<< i'm down to one alarm a week
asciilifeform: came to see a sonic << if only. brought as a boy and ended up with no other citizenship just like parents (no automagic su->ru citizenship for folks who packed up prior to '94, if i recall)
BingoBoingo: I'd simply hodl it and use the appreciation to get the liquor
asciilifeform: i'll feel sorry for herr b when he has to live in a rented hovel and wake to an alarm bell. and follow orders.
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> you - which you. herr buffett can sleep when he pleases, likewise, i hear. << not so. not when the dow is ding ding dinging downwards.
asciilifeform: ok alarm clock, but only if i want. for comet. that's it.
undata: asciilifeform: I share the distaste for merkuh, but... broad brush.
undata: I suppose all 320mil of us work at McDonalds leaving only to go through the drive-through at Burger King in your fantasy.
asciilifeform: you - which you. herr buffett can sleep when he pleases, likewise, i hear.
undata: side note: I happen to be an inmate that sleeps when he pleases
mircea_popescu: "why am i so hot ? a wait, that was a third desert wasn't it. plus alcohol."
mircea_popescu: anyway, there is some merit to this entire "sucks to be me" approach to obesity. while i have been catching on a little weight as an adult male, it's still mostly a case of, if i overeat my body just turns it to heat, usually on the spot.
mircea_popescu: but i am not royalty!
mircea_popescu: i dunno, i slept pretty well there. nice idea the boxspring
mircea_popescu: i ate it.
mircea_popescu: jurov no, actually, i ate so much sugar it was scary.
jurov: i guess parents did not destroy your endocrine system by placating you with sweets
mircea_popescu: i was when i was 6, too.
mircea_popescu: i am.
mircea_popescu: yeah bitch, they do. nevertheless, ever since i can recall my process was to stay up until i was sleepy and then sleep until i woke up.
TheNewDeal: mkay, I'll tell them it's in the logs https://imgflip.com/i/9iu9z
reggiesells: now i feel less special lol
nubbins`: TheNewDeal and i'd say "yeah, guy sent me btc, i sent him a poster" and they would not have any new information upon which to judge your character
reggiesells: oohh okay, i know about WoT.
mircea_popescu: http://i.imgur.com/6464LM2.png <<< check out this land where thermodynamics never happened.
reggiesells: thanks! @BingoBoingo, i almost lost my voice earlier
TheNewDeal: I'm distancing myself from the forum
TheNewDeal: I don't see how it'd be worthless. In fact, if someone wanted to do business with me, they could literally ask you how it went
nubbins`: i give out ratings like candy, they'll be worthless
asciilifeform: gitian << first of all, want bsd - floppy disk image is what i'm playing with now - plus gcc, other deps - pre-baked. minimal size. second, what is this nonsense, it needs an internet connection?!?!
TheNewDeal: but I did purchase 2 posters from you. Want everyone to know I'm a bitcoin art connoisseur
nubbins`: TheNewDeal you know those are better ratings than i had for a long time :P
TheNewDeal: understood, but I'm in dire need
