Adlai: oh crap, they slapped
a GPL on the null codebase. now every new project must be GPLed
decimation: at any rate, it's proof of the kind of error against which asciilifeform regularly pontificates, that is,
a hardware error that is known only to the vendors of the chips
dignork: we cause
a random pattern error at this position...
decimation: for example,
a crafted javascript or maybe just plain html web page
jurov: there's certainly
a way how to remotely cause already present software to repeatedly read memory
decimation: umm, you can corrupt the victim's memory by executing
a loop?
decimation: note that ECC is only
a partial mitigation
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.
mod6: asciilifeform: are you going to b-
a?
jurov: yea i know. i am fine with 25k eur before taxes this year, even paid part of
a new car from that
xanthyos: counting stacks of gold coins in
a dark room
jurov: lol i'm
a miser too... why you though otherwise?
dignork: hey, i'm not
a miser, just not too wealthy :)
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.
thestringpuller: It was the day before X-Mas, all was silent, even in #b-
a. Nothing stirred, not even
a bot.
BingoBoingo wonders if soon after releasing Cardano, S.NSA will release
a Maldardano sample tampered Cardano for people to practice searching for turditions on.
BingoBoingo: Microphoneless smart Pnohe is the way to Pnohe, because BB pager recieves calls, records
a message. To return calls you battery up
a flip phone.
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!
decimation: principal with the Chertoff Group,
a Washington-based consulting firm led by former senior U.S. security and intelligence officials."
joecool: otherwise i never would have considered blackberry, it's
a shame they have
a worthless marketing division
joecool: tried
a couple crapdroid landmines, universally disappointed
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: Stirring shit up with North Korea is
a natural move for the United States, because it distracts from the United States surrendering to Cuba to end that battle of the cold war.
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.
decimation: asciilifeform: actually that's not
a very accurate picture
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: Only
a few hours until Krampus day arrives here.
BingoBoingo: lol, I thought about newsing that up but... Does every rural person who files
a lawsuit deserve their own story then?
decimation: reddit is kinda like
a lesswrong for retards
kakobrekla: i also dont do it. cause if have half of your upload and
a few tb of stuff.
cazalla: works here in australia too austeritysucks although
a lot of people report otherwise
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
cazalla: maybe think
a little further down the road and think of people wanting to cash out items to bitcoin instead of cash
austeritysucks: punkman, is it
a secret place? i google circle btc and get nothing
punkman: yeah Circle works in
a lot of countries
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: so credit card issue isn't really
a big one or steam monopoly etc
austeritysucks: yea
a charge-back free payment system is natural, but you see the typical excuses from people who refuse to adapt
cazalla: bitcoin is such
a good fit for this
austeritysucks: paypal is horrible for digital goods though so it's
a natural fit, just hard to get the community to adopt it
cazalla: then flip it to someone who wants the knife for bitcoin, making
a small btc profit
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: leaving
a loophole there deliberately where someone with >1 l1 and 0 l2 can still voice themselves
mike_c: it was more meant as
a rebuttal to his comment. people who have nothing to contribute type in here often :) he was
a glaring example.
mircea_popescu: and it's what generally happens whenever
a state claims to be "protecting rights". it's not protecting anything, it's stealing freedom and issuing in its place token "rights". which, much like its paper currency, are fiat worthlessness.
mircea_popescu: in any case :
a freedom is something the people have, and the state can't take away. the rights are constructions that the state gives, and so the state can take away.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: well just don't get arrested over freedom of speech lol << speech isn't really
a freedom at that point is it?
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).
mircea_popescu: what's so offensive about it ? you had
a chance to be like intelligent and prove the common man should have
a voice.
rithm: afaik the rota thing was
a mircea and wences setup
mircea_popescu: kinda why democracy is
a fucking stupid idea. the only logical counterbalance to the common man's moral myopia is
a solid grasp on the кнут.
assbot: Logged on 22-12-2014 22:14:11; jurov:
http://trilema.com/2013/rota-post-mortem/ << Anduck see the discussion, it's mircea's and kako's sacrosanct right to arrange unprotected hole in the foyer with
a sign "whatever falls here, is our property"
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: I think he spends too much time in front of
a computer and not enough time sleeping with girls.
mircea_popescu: eventually people started caring and it got crushed into the dirt, but for
a year or so all sorts of bugs got to dance on the tools an' pretend.
mircea_popescu: at the time, bitcoin was
a few dollars and basically nobody gave much of
a shit.
joecool: mircea_popescu: about
a year or so ago
joecool: cornfeedhobo: still think the best was seeing
a minor (danieldaniel) lend btc to
a heroin addict (rg), -otc is always good entertainment
mircea_popescu:
a really ? i never kept too close track. just
a kid wandered in one day.
cornfeedhobo: he is 16 now. i have met him in NYC. not
a fan.
