khersonus: mike_c: not really. I'd like there to be a way/market to profit from the BTC/USD price movement, in bitcoin, without there being a possibility of the marketmaker/house going bust, and without the house needing to take the opposite side of a position
pLambert: I was just thinking, for gpg timestamp authenticity, you could add the last few bitcoin block hashes from the blockchain to your message?
khersonus: I'm working on something I think you might find interesting, MP, but it will require a few more months of me working on it (just in case I find some hole I overlooked in the implementation that I didn't think of in the planning stages)
mircea_popescu: if it could be done, i'd have my ;;sig
mircea_popescu: i have no idea how you'd verify btc address signatures on a large scale.
mircea_popescu: well i suppose it does use a tx yes.
khersonus: but if I wanted to do this on a larger scale, that is not exactly handy
khersonus: I'm more interested in proving address ownership, which you can't really do with just GPG, as far as I can tell
mircea_popescu: and i ain't running whoever's code, so cli is right out for them. gotta do the bot.
mircea_popescu: it makes 0 diff to me if i type ;;sig in here or gpg in a cli. all i want is to have somewhere i can type into.
khersonus: I've seen the MPEX messaging thing with pastebin websites, pretty cool, but, it's not ;;sig
mircea_popescu: i do hate change.
truffles: read "i hate change"
mircea_popescu: i don't need/want one for gpg personally. because i already have the infrastructure in place to do that for me.
pLambert: cool, I didn't know that
khersonus: can you do that with GPG? I haven't seen it used before
mircea_popescu: khersonus if i can't have a bot to which i go ;;sig blabla and it spits out a "so and so signed this thing on this date" it's useless toi me.
mircea_popescu: i've hired the something awful experts that made beeboopity to do it.
khersonus: in this case it does seem coinbr uses it to secure coins, I'm assuming if you reset an account password you can withdraw
khersonus: mike_c: I see, I had a similar idea in mind for proving ownership of coins
mircea_popescu: khersonus i tend to walk a lot. i like european-style towns, where most everything is designed for the pedestrian.
mircea_popescu: i walk a good 10 miles a day, but i wouldn't bother trying to run50
nubbins`: "I'm just trying to shed some positive light on Bitcoin"
mircea_popescu: cause i'd pay 50 btc for this particular snuff video.
nubbins`: i can't even express the amount of fail on display here
nubbins`: "I know it's it going to suck. I know it's going to hurt. And I know it won't be easy. But, that's why I want to do it."
ozbot: What Music Should I Listen to As I Attempt 50 Mile Ultramarathon With No Training to Raise 50 Bitcoi
nubbins`: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/226y67/what_music_should_i_listen_to_as_i_attempt_50/
nubbins`: man. so i ordered a bunch of supplies on wednesday. put my debit card number into three different websites instead of my credit card number
mircea_popescu: should have been "i received a directory of direct threats directed directly at my daughter"
mircea_popescu: “Following those posts on the forum, I received direct threats targeted directly at my daughter"
nubbins`: i saw this proposed as a captcha replacement once
nubbins`: mircea_popescu i stopped reading at "your statement's so far"
mircea_popescu: "also, my butt inexplicably hurts. INEXPLICABLY I SAY! and has nothing to do with the head sitting atop it."
mircea_popescu: "I'm new here, for what it's worth, but your ability to offend and act like an idiot is apparent. You have no friggin' idea why I invested in Neo & Bee. Really. You are illogical. Your statement's so far have been illogical (due to incomplete information) and you act like they're logical without even beginning to take a wise or mature stance on the issue by way of accepting you don't know what you're talking about most
nubbins`: man, i just came across my ebay tab, opened to the "mining contracts" category
nubbins`: hey, i'm D.D., this is K.A.
nubbins`: mircea_popescu i srsly considered adding big fat penises to the poster
mircea_popescu: mike_c i saw that yeah
pankkake: I left a comment
artifexd: Who, exactly, do I want to be "not fungible" to?
artifexd: I suppose part of the question is "fungible to who?" While I may be fungible at my day job. I'm certainly not fungible to my daughter. I am probably not fungible to my wife. I am, without a doubt, fungible in #bitcoin-assets.
artifexd: I guess I shall spend the weekend doing some soul-searching on whether being "fungible" is acceptable to me. I suspect the answer will be "no".
artifexd: The thing is, I'm happy programming. I enjoy it. It fills me with a sense of accomplishment. In my day job, it fills me with a sense of importance and value. And yet...
pankkake: I'm definitively going to steal that one
artifexd: Today's trilema hurt my feelings. I don't want to be fungible. "I am fungible." What a depressing thing to say.
mike_c: hehe. i love how they characterize them :) "Cyprus-based bitcoin marketers Neo & Bee "
dexX7: what i hate about glorious linux stuff: simple "install scripts" never work and it ends in endless searches and manual fixes <.<"
kakobrekla: well, i asked if you want editing rights
punkman: kakobrekla: I can write a script that turns them into dokuwiki format
punkman1: mircea_popescu: fixed, I think
punkman1: I've been hoarding these notes, might be useful for #b-a wiki: https://bitbucket.org/abfg/gildedtxt/src/feb5f32dc0523c2717f5b3b05e2f35a5ec22ce6c/exchanges/
mircea_popescu: and in other news, http://i.imgur.com/xsKUETn.gif
mircea_popescu: skinnkavaj: I am not holding any shares thank god, but I feel sorry for those who do << you also feel cheeky towards your intellectual superiors, and maintain the delusion that your head works. this is much worse than having held shares in the scam du jour.
mircea_popescu: zacm: blowback. that's why the us libtards better hope the tea party prevails in the republican party, because if it doesn't, what will replace it they have not seen in their worst nightmares << this is actually correct, or at least i think the same. if teaparty doesn't take over by a large margin, by 2020ish there will be summary executions on the grounds of "being now or having ever been a social justice warrior".
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo: I dunno that there is anything easier to fake for a profit than "mining" contracts <<< actually, it's a direct translation of the EVE "protection contract". ask diametric he knows how that works :D
TomServo: it's just the middle one i think :P
VanCleef: heh yeh i was just reading that
VanCleef: i promise you that
skinnkavaj: I am not holding any shares thank god, but I feel sorry for those who do
VanCleef: man i feel sorry for ex firefox ceo, just because you donate $1000 dollars to a anti gay marriage campaign you get fired, that's some serious heterophobic stuff
zacm: "I didn’t think I’d have to get personal, but he is trying to lie and deceive the British people and after 40 years we have had enough."

BingoBoingo: I dunno that there is anything easier to fake for a profit than "mining" contracts
punkman: hmm maybe I should get one of these guys to mine some ATC for me
chetty: well I do get what cazalla says about things getting pushed, it just stirs people up and tends to create things like this
cazalla: i wasn't even that far right until the leftist idiots kept pushing this white privilege bullshit
cazalla: I don't think it has anything to do with culture but more so a genetic basis for their lack of culture and chimpish behaviour
cazalla: but even as someone who has never been to detroit, i know you don't get out the car if you run a youth down
cazalla: i don't know why she permitted all this immigration throughout the commonwealth

BingoBoingo: cazalla: I will decline to comment
nubbins`: i don't have the stats in front of me, but probably like a week ago

chetty: nope, I am sure it has - its just spreading
BingoBoingo: I think it looks like an off orangy red, but...
nubbins`: i much prefer to torture myself trying to produce perfect floods. even the noise on the yellow is a bit out of character for me
BingoBoingo: I hear that color really pops for the red-green colorblind crowd
nubbins`: ehhhhhhh, i'm not huge on the "messy" aesthetic
BingoBoingo: I think if I did a junkyard wars laptop of my own, tyvek would be the wrap of choice
nubbins`: anyway i gotta get these films printed and burn some screens
nubbins`: i think you'd need special inks tho
nubbins`: y'know, i've toyed with the idea of doing posters on tyvek
nubbins`: it's time for Ineffectual Poster Critique, where you offer constructive criticism on a poster i've designed and i ignore your suggestions because it's late and i'm tired
BingoBoingo: The way this winter's been with the Jetstream acting up I wouldn't be too surprised if we got a derechero
MisterE: I been gone so long forgot geography of home
MisterE: I have a friend in KC
MisterE: ;; later tell antephialtic I'm looking for someone to take a site idea from napkin to prototype, contact me especially if you have SE/ranking experiences
CheckDavid: I thought it was you linking it.
