Pierre_Rochard: ;;rate napedia 5 I know where he lives. A right and honorable denizen of the net
thickasthieves: i kinda wonder if this might be an actual use for an altcoin though
danielpbarron: thickasthieves, i had that idea too
thickasthieves: i dunno
Pierre_Rochard: ;;rate danielpbarron 1 I know my tweets are good when he favorites them https://twitter.com/danielpbarron
Pierre_Rochard: DanielKrawisz: I lost trust in humanity as a whole, it’s nothing personal
bitstein: I’m half the man I used to be.
mike_c: i bought a 4tb hdd for $190 the other day.
Daniel_Krawisz: I logged in with the wrong name accidentally. It should be DanielKrawisz
Daniel_Krawisz: Me neither. I would rather see the block size go up. If that creates a crisis of not enough full notes, then people are going to do something about that pretty quick I'd guess.
thickasthieves: i'm having no part in a fork tho
Daniel_Krawisz: Oh, ok. Yeah, something needs to be done about that but I think it's a solvable problem.
Daniel_Krawisz: So I'm curious as to why mircea_popescu has been saying that an increased block size is a security problem. What's the issue here? (sorry, I suck at spelling)
Daniel_Krawisz: So I'm curious as to why mercea_popescu has been saying that an increased block size is a security problem. What's the issue here?
bitstein: ^ That is how I view the WoT.
danielpbarron: i think of it as an exponential thing -- not sure what the base is
bitstein: Okay, well as I clearly said, we are still learning. Our ratings will adjust over time. I actually probably need to give Daniel a complex number. A 7i + 6.
kakobrekla: i really trust him with 6 but motherfucker is already leading.
kakobrekla: for example, i rated mp 3 and he rated me 5, yet we are equal partner in bitbet.
Daniel_Krawisz: Well if I'm not supposed to signal anything, then I'll just give everybody random numbers as ratings.
Daniel_Krawisz: Thanks, I downgraded him to 8.
nubbins`: i know plenty of people 10y+ that i don't trust
Daniel_Krawisz: oh ok. Well I guess we've been using a different convention.
nubbins`: i mean, come on
nubbins`: highest otherwise i've given is 2
kakobrekla: highest i have given is 8
kakobrekla: i wouldnt give 10 to my mother
thickasthieves: oh man i just made another great typo, discussing how the bearwhale was actually the 'givernment'
kakobrekla: down for a minute and i get complaints.
kakobrekla: <Dizzle> hey, how do I use this #bitcoin-assets channel? assbot is down < heh
thestringpuller: but i think he got shut down
thickasthieves: ;;later tell pankkake bitfetch.com seems dead and i am sad
midnightmagic: I don't. It's just irritating.
thickasthieves: i'd rather just pay
thickasthieves: i hope they dont do ads
mircea_popescu: i like how danielpbarron is -30 on the wot and +5 to assbot
mircea_popescu: i wonder who arranges the scheduling for all this.
mircea_popescu: these people are out of a parody i swear. every single day. EVERY SINGLE DAY there's a "protest" in buenos aires. bout a hundred or so people gather (50 or so being the same throughout), drum the same tune on perhaps he same drums. each day.
rithm: i may be too late for triangle bank
thickasthieves: i got some good typos today
thickasthieves: when i showed my wife the TBF nonprofit documents she commented "Chief Scientist" is an odd job title for a nonprofit
BingoBoingo: bingoboingo cazalla heh check out the furry of attention your little project is getting from our enemies. methinks we;ve struck oil here. << I think the individual blogs stung from time to time. The concentrated effort on a news as information service scares them.
mircea_popescu: thickasthieves: Note that it's ironic that I actually made this purchase by mistake because I thought the "Deposit" button meant , yknow, depositing funds, not exchanging currencies. Your system of dollarifying all numbers is obnoxious. Let people type in bitcoin amounts and understand it as a separate currency. You're just confusing things." <<< they're not JUST confusing things.
thickasthieves: 'I was in a loving, healthy, great relationship for four years,' she told the magazine. 'It was long distance, and either your boyfriend is going to look at porn or he’s going to look at you.' http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2783719/Jennifer-Lawrence-speaks-time-nude-photo-leak-Vanity-Fair.html
thickasthieves: i was loading some stuff into the fridge earlier and felt like a web or string my neck, so i grabbed and flicked to floor. it was a huge red wasp.
penguirker: New blog post: http://trilema.com/2014/this-is-how-much-i-rule-today/
fluffypony: thestringpuller: I'm around
thestringpuller: I wonder if the enemy is lurking on Trilema.
assbot: This is how much I rule (today) pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2014/this-is-how-much-i-rule-today/ << thickasthieves you can tell the tradechats that one :D
thickasthieves: i dont understand how you put $30m into a wallet company and take $30m+ back out
mircea_popescu: they;re one of the lenders, but! i gotta say they parlayed very little into a whole lot. they don't actually have enough btc on hand to justify a 30mn grant.
thickasthieves: i used it for a bit but stopped
nubbins`: blockchain.info is a handy enough read-only wallet that i haven't bothered trying any others
thickasthieves: someone dumped AM1 i see
thickasthieves: i should use though less tho
mircea_popescu: i guess I should make a little infographic while at it.
mike_c: oh no, to be clear I am laughing at them.
mircea_popescu: mike_c i wouldn't really take anything the govt says at face value. the derps in that courtroom painfully remind of http://trilema.com/2012/law-enforcement-never-fails-to-unintentionally-entertain/
mircea_popescu: it did ? (i have nfi)
nubbins`: interesting, "the net" was the last movie i recall seeing a 3.5"
Azelphur: mircea_popescu: that's the part that makes no sense, I shouldn't be, it's the same key I've always used on this machine since the dawn of time, I only have one key, gpg --list-secret-keys shows one key
mircea_popescu: bounce depending on one's age, i wouldn't put much stock in that. i suppose septuagenarians have good cause to be disinterested on these grounds.
guruvan: thestringpuller: no - but I've been around here a long while - just not much in here for a while
nubbins`: dysnumeria i guess or w/e it's called
nubbins`: mircea_popescu i almost made the same mistake on the shirts
thestringpuller: I still want a poster :(
nubbins`: i'll refund you, that package will likely be destroyed.
nubbins`: ooooooooo fuck me in the ass, i wrote the P.O. Box number down wrong
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller i take that as a no ?
nubbins`: did i post this yesterday? http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/philip-pynn-averill-baker-shared-passionate-kiss-before-arrest-1.2789028
mircea_popescu: "During the last eighteen months I have not had the good fortune to attend my own funeral, but with that exception I have buried pretty nearly everything I lived for." << wow check out this guy.
nubbins`: i've taken to calling him cock swap
mircea_popescu: i had a dentist in ro, her last name was moustache
nubbins`: i know a woman with the last name Smellie, true story
mircea_popescu: i wonder why all the people with shitty names don't get together and make their own country.
mircea_popescu: that's ok, i've read enough nonsense today
fluffypony: Have we discussed David Seaman's proclamation of Bitcoin's demise? I see pete_dushenski spotted it
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform incidentally, i am curious how many of the references and injokes are actually observable from outside the work
nubbins`: i think they black out their mirrors
mircea_popescu: i should probably say "the enemies of a free world, liberty, happiness and generally humanity", but it's kinda lengthy to give these people all their proper titles and indignities.
assbot: 'I've made a terrible mistake' - YouTube
nubbins`: i'm sorry, i know you don't have answers
bounce: didn't get one of those, but I have a lot of ad-y things blocked here.
assbot: Logged on 07-10-2014 04:02:22; WolfGoethe: I code web mostly. many platforms. had a few startups. did the napster of Ringtones in 2000. and a few social networking sites. and now working on some bitcoin stuff.
mircea_popescu: i'm sorry, i mean, still have no idea that they wolfgoethe
mircea_popescu: i'm like... dude i used to make that stuff, in basic, on a z80
nubbins`: also turns out i'm gonna be printing the writers' alliance quarterly journal
nubbins`: turns out i did indeed have a meeting scheduled for here
nubbins`: <+nubbins`> i found a piece of paper yesterday that said "1:30pm tuesday oct 7" and i can't remember if i'm supposed to be meeting someone here or not
kakobrekla: i guess iso3166 can now ask bitcoin if it can reform
chetty: I wouldnt go too much by localbitcoins listings, plenty of places trading in btc not listed
thickasthieves: i think we should rename all currencies to add C
kakobrekla: no i think we should call it YBT
dignork: thickasthieves: in "send money home" scenario, no arbitrage/insurance is required, unless we are talking about hedging volatility risk. Any btc buyer or seller migh assume himself in "remittance business", which means unrestricted lower bound for margin. that's why i think remittance as a business will disappear. It will just turn into a corner case of btc<->whatever trade.
PeterL: http://blog.btcscoop.com/use-code-xbt-not-btc-for-bitcoins/ and yes I see the irony of posting this on a website starting with btc
thickasthieves: i'm saying the 3rd party will continue to exist
thickasthieves: Well i think businesses will still provide the service
thickasthieves: dignork i assume you mean be taken over by crypto, not disappear
thickasthieves: by closed loop i mean getting people to transact in bitcoin and not convert to fiat
