fluffypony: mike_c: I bet that's just a "hot desk"
mike_c: i'm sure china will send them right over for the trial.
bitcoinpete: mircea_popescu: i am assuming that precision strikes aren't to be preferred because punishment must be disproportionate and impredictable to work. << taleb says the same thing. like china when they execute heads of companies for losing quarters

HeySteve: <+danielpbarron> i would love for someone in this channel to rewrite bitcoind <-check out https://github.com/libcoin/libcoin/wiki
bitcoinpete: watched this ice t movie yesterday. it's the best troll of progressives i've ever seen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlUQFDxJedg
bitcoinpete: mircea_popescu: but srsly, i don't know there's anything nicer in the wonderful world of creativity than coming up with something before lunch and having it all deployed and working by supper. << so sweet
rithm: send it to me young padewon so that i might decode it and protect it for you
bitcoinpete: then input your private key into bitcoind or bc.i or w/e
danielpbarron: i have generated a very long very random passphrase but i'm not going to plug it into those services
danielpbarron: bitcoinpete, lool i'm not using those
danielpbarron: i would totally chip in to that project
danielpbarron: i would love for someone in this channel to rewrite bitcoind
danielpbarron: but i'm not dead-set on that plan; feel free to show me how my idea is stupid
danielpbarron: yeah I could redownload the blockchain wherever i go, but that takes a day; what if i need funds sooner?
danielpbarron: yeah i could just carry gpg but I don't want to rely on things like bc.i
bitcoinpete: danielpbarron: i could see the attraction
danielpbarron: neh! i need full node!
bitcoinpete: i like the idea of that plan too, just not sure why you'd want to carry the whole blockchain
danielpbarron: i'm doing it with flash drive partly because the box i'm using doesn't have a big enough HD, and partly because I like the idea of being able to grab a flashdrive if i had to get out of dodge in a hurry
danielpbarron: right now i'm not at that point; i'm still trying to get it caught up with the latest block
danielpbarron: bitcoind 0.7.2 compiled ok, it gives a warning but i don't think it's criticall
danielpbarron: and also, i haven't yet figured out how to compile ssss on openbsd 5.5
danielpbarron: i'm running into troubles, but i think it has more to do with flash drives not being the best place to store the blockchain
thestringpuller: I still don't think I set it up right...
thestringpuller: bitcoinpete: mod6 got me into freebsd, it's much more stable than most OS's I use but it was hard as fuck for me to set up
danielpbarron: i've been messing around with openbsd
mod6: <+thestringpuller> I DIDN"T CRY WHEN I WAS BORN LIKE A LITTLE BITCH << haha
fluffypony: thestringpuller: I was born at a very early age
thestringpuller: I DIDN"T CRY WHEN I WAS BORN LIKE A LITTLE BITCH
thestringpuller: fluffypony: i was literally born laughing
bitcoinpete: lol i'd visit iran
fluffypony: thestringpuller: I'm fluffy because I'm hirsute!
thestringpuller: I thought someone in thailand would have murdered him by now.
punkman: what's "Pole coming soon" mean, I wonder
punkman: jurov, guess I'll find out
punkman: I'm gonna go back to something productive, and by productive I mean writing the worst possible CMS because I just can't use one of the 9000 existing ones
punkman: "The first statement will be that there is still some good left in this world. We plan on doing that by showing that a coin with 51% premine and not a scam CAN exist! I will personally be giving away or feeding faucets, if I have to, until ALL coins are paid out! Rain or shine! If my net goes down, I'll use my neighbors'! If he says no, I'll hack his WIFI! (j/k, I'll use McDonalds)"
punkman: " A potential threat, he slept in the ordinary tourists millions of years of ice. Long time not found on earth bacteria. Awakening from the darkness, biological underground world, these unknown glacier, what factors will affect people on earth, does this mean that a deadly new virus? Now who could not be determined! This will be a great discovery, so it will be a huge Antarctic coins, I believe it will give those who try to collapse t
fluffypony: I'm going to stick to Rambocoin
punkman: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=599353.0 "I'm a  musicians, having un underground band, and i know that for small indipendent artist,having a band is quite hard"
chetty: kakobrekla, but I am sure you could get a patent
bounce: I think you just lost me.
mircea_popescu: i don't know. can he ?
mircea_popescu: what's the first thing i say here ? "who the fuck are you and what makes you think you have something to say".
bounce: no, all I said was that it isn't very good data. it's incomplete and moreover biased. reason enough to look for more ways to get more input.
bounce: how did I say it was their problem?
mircea_popescu: that's so wrong i can't even be offended.
mircea_popescu: anyway. individual use is certainly earlier, shakespeare et all, and probably existed during the romans but i just don't know of it.
mircea_popescu: bounce something hinders you from reviewing the historical record ? other than, of course, the dictionary problem i've just re-re-rediscovered, for my sins ;/
bounce: I mean inquiring
bounce: but I like my voltmeter!
mircea_popescu: well, i guess different "it"s
mircea_popescu: punkman kind-of an obvious sidepoint i guess, even kant has some pages about how stupid this is.
mircea_popescu: becuase that's what i think of you, approaching politics wholly ignorant of politics, with an expectation that your voltmeter may do something.
mircea_popescu: "crassus ipo. as the richest man in all the history of the roman empire, and perhaps the world, definitely i can repay you"
bounce: hm. even so. I'd say that scientific method (properly applied) has a better chance of uncovering laws of nature than religion does. the scientific community certainly claims this. do we have some sort of proof for that, or maybe just strong evidence?
mircea_popescu: know the idea before others (with this you can also steal it and make your own business before i), also you will get a percentage of "first believer shares" that would be redeemed for final ipo shares and will give you the right to vote if the company success."
mircea_popescu: I am making an ipo for an ipo ( yep need to raise funds even to show you the "business plan", in those days i need to eat too) so, with the funds raised i will start thinking how can i make a good company, you will have preference spot in the share selling of that company and upcoming ipo. Lets say if you are the top owner share of this ipo,you would be able to buy the next ipo shares 4 days earlier than others and to
mircea_popescu: "Hey all!, after seeing some topic in this section i have taken the liberty to share my idea with you.
mircea_popescu: but yes, i'm with chetty : stop pretend-fixing things, and also undo most of the fixes already in place. they're broken.
bounce: hm right. so how'd you call it when I'd rather make policy without the "because we believe from a priori assumptions that this will make anything better" part?
mircea_popescu: i want my tits colored IN PRINCIPLE, not any particular color.
mircea_popescu: bounce and i want a pair of colored tits. not any particular color, mind you, just colored in principle.
bounce: not impossibly difficult, actually. I'd want government to be a support for the people instead of a tool to manipulate the people.
bounce: reason why I don't want to go into politics for the ideology
bounce: the connectedness bit, I mean
mircea_popescu: (and i know this from experience, this was romania)
bounce: right. apparently I misremembered and ended up even more apt than intended.
mircea_popescu: i doubt it.
chetty: I stand corrected
mircea_popescu: chetty i thought we were discussing metaphorical bombs.
bounce: they'd be aimed at the wrong target, and I'd rather try this targeting thing first
mircea_popescu: i am assuming that precision strikes aren't to be preferred because punishment must be disproportionate and impredictable to work.
bounce: I happen to not buy into that idea
bounce: nah. I don't think we're all that desperate (yet), and since the problems come from a rather well-defined section of society I'm not really willing to let everyone, mostly /other/ sections of society suffer for it.
mircea_popescu: i should be so fucking lucky, walk from here to the bathroom, be ready for the olympics.
fluffypony: I love that analogy
chetty: <mircea_popescu> i am fuming out of five different smokestacks for five unrelated reasons.<< someone call the bomberos
mircea_popescu: i am fuming out of five different smokestacks for five unrelated reasons.
moiety: I'm well mircea_popescu and i don't seem to have missed anything overnight :D how are you?
mircea_popescu: i'd pay just for this to exist.
mircea_popescu: and if it did, i would start spending on terrorism, simply put.
mircea_popescu: pankkake this event has not yet occured where i try to load a site and my isp won't serve it.
mircea_popescu: i swear the day i can't load a website for fault of my isp i'm burning it down wtf is this
mircea_popescu: dude how long have i been asleep
pankkake: to censor a website, you had to sue all ISPs and force them to do it - now there is a secret list of censored websites, and no specific purpose (i.e. it's not restricted to pedonazis by law)
mircea_popescu: i have nfi wtf im reading in the logs
mircea_popescu: pankkake bounce explain this censorship thing to me like i live in the civilised world ?
bounce: that must be why there's nothing but generics at the chemists, I'm sure
mircea_popescu: bounce i tohught the noise supression was software
mircea_popescu: cazalla: blue yeti is pretty nice, i have one of those << hey cazalla you called the girl up yet ?
