mircea_popescu: los_pantalones on one hand, it's been all over the logs yest, we even indentify the place ; on the other,
a comment there even gave me
a starting point for
a trilema article
punkman: "FortressFone™ is
a 100% reengineered and reimagined secure mobile solution. The first truly hardened Android Smartphone, it stops intercepts of all communications and blocks any kind of spying."
assbot: Give Me $46 Billion and I will Build
a Safe Computer System | Rebecca Abrahams
cazalla: this sums it up well - "The storyline of Archeage is
a war between whites and east Asians, and much of the game play is piracy, with much of the piracy featuring conflicts between whites and east Asians. White male avatars are depicted as way better than anyone else, even though this game was written and the art drawn by east Asians. (And, by the way, the Mongols are catboys)"
Vexual: is it
a massive multiplayer?
Duffer1: my brother played it
a bit
cazalla: mmo, it's f2p but you pretty much have to pay if you get serious, i played
a little of the beta but not much, it's ok but nothing stands out
Vexual: perhaps he'll invent
a bitoin miner thats
a broken microwave
Vexual: also you owe be 40 bux for

assbot:
A French Film Showing Men What Being
A Woman Feels Like Kinda Nails It
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
A decade would be an abysmal lifespan for
a book
decimation: BingoBoingo: I think they try to keep
a few 'spares' in orbit
assbot: VIDEO: Russian Laser Show Features Obama Sucking on
a Banana
The20YearIRCloud: What's median lifespan of
a GPS satellite? Last time I checked it was over 30 years
The20YearIRCloud: There was supposed to be
a ? After what I said. Glonass has been very problematic. When it works its great but way more unreliable than GPS
mircea_popescu: This is why I say that all men should have an annual mandatory mental checkup. Over 80% of inmates are men, and 40% of the global male population ends up in prison at some point in their life. It is clear that they have some sort of genetic defect that makes them act irresponsibly and end up putting others at risk. Peace and civility can only be achieved if we ensure that the male population has
a normal functioning st
decimation: it seems that there is
a division between those who are rich in bezzlars and those who could use them to do something worthwhile
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform % of total world still works as
a comparison term.
assbot:
A Rocket
a Day Keeps the High Costs Away
decimation: actually for what facebook wasted on whatsapp, they could have had
a really nice little satellite constellation (assuming they had the will to engineer it properly)
mircea_popescu: i actually invented watt engines 750 years ago, over
a coffee chat with twinklebros
decimation: I have
a proposition for you but you need to self-select into
a watt engine between 500-700 years ago
mircea_popescu: but even for the hell of it - calculate the sub that can carry the diesel engine that can make the electricity thyat can fill
a baloon
mircea_popescu: decimation not the rubber, not the gas (how do you get helium on
a sub ?)
assbot: How many cows does it take to build
a Zeppelin?
decimation: I think we had
a conversation about cow guts being
a military secret in germany
decimation: yeah I'm not sure that the rubber/plastic technology of the age could have made
a big enough balloon
decimation: yeah you are right, I guess the submarines were just
a hypothesis (although could still be true, sand from beach, launched from sub)
decimation: my understanding is that the japanese were actually very close to
a working nuke bomb
decimation: actually
a well engineered balloon system would be
a great 'pauper's space program'
decimation: why the hell does
a 'height master plan' need
a balloon for photography?
nubbins`: i think there's
a guy in montreal with one of those as well
chalbersma: Ya when you look at p2pool in Bitcoin nobody has
a share of the network like you and Bingo do.
BingoBoingo: X-Rob: Well, maybe
a mix. For
a while there were 0.002 second share times.
chalbersma: X-Rob I looked it up. It will accept +diff but there's
a maximum + you can go up. going 1024 when diff was 1 was too much.
BingoBoingo: Oh, fixing the share difficulty was in part my bashing hash into the pool unproductively for
a while's result
BingoBoingo: RagnarsBitch: There seem to be
a few of these sites. It was just the first one mentioned when the constipation crisis happened. I think Blazedout419 brought it up
BingoBoingo: RagnarsBitch: Also with that site... It just functions as
a sort of Ebay trying to be
a "dumb" middleman so contacting rig owners off their paltform is
a hassel
BingoBoingo: RagnarDanneskjol:
A big thing with p2pool seems to be finding miners that play nicely with it. Antminer S2's suck, but S1's and S3's are ok. Other rigs are somewhat trial and error in my limited research.
BingoBoingo: Just that the page lists and owner name. Other rigs might be
a better value.
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: If it wasn't
a badbet I'd suggest maor white Americans get ebola y Jan 1st 2015 than black Americans. Seems safe since they already have the lead.
X-Rob: let's see how it goes after it finds
a block
cazalla: cryptsy users about to get btfo with spam "Cryptsy will actively promote digitalX Mintsy to its customer base of over 250,000 registered users, who currently trade over 200 different types of digital currencies, making the site
a leader in digital currency trading."
X-Rob: I'm finding
a block with
a difficulty of 8k every 10 seconds.
X-Rob: I'm submitting
a valid share every.. 10 seconds or so
X-Rob: so every n seconds
a share is found (Which, currently, is about 8k or so, looking at when I'm getting resets sent through)
X-Rob: but p2pool has sharechains. The sharechains is, according to p2pool,
a new block
X-Rob: on
a non-p2pool pool, that happens once every block
X-Rob: Assume 'asic reset time' = ... 500msec. That happens whenver the pool says 'discard all your work, I have
a new block with
a new coinbase'
X-Rob: s
a p2pool limitation now
BingoBoingo: I've also only got
a bit more than 22 hours of rented hash left
BingoBoingo: Yeah. Also it seems to not have its own wallt implementation, or at least the press release doesn't mention one which is
a plus.
bounce: wikipedia says we left the last of those behind in the bronze age. so if the argument goes those things are still around (and they could well be, the eu likes this too for one) then we still need
a useful classifier
bounce: what makes
a palace economy? >50% of the population on the dole?
chetty: <mircea_popescu> such
a primitive arrangement even keynesianism is an improvement//cough cough choke
mircea_popescu: such
a primitive arrangement even keynesianism is an improvement
mircea_popescu: all places devoid of property end up with
a state-party system
bounce: (how ironic that the USA effectively has
a single party left. alright, two names and
a dissident faction, but the politics are still muchly one party.)
mircea_popescu: russians having invented robots, they get the benefit of seeing things like "worker worker" whenever someone has
a worker robot in
a game or somewhere.
