VanCleef: they wont achieve that because i dont think they are even mining, just selling chips
mircea_popescu: what do the chips do, i forget. 3gh ?
benkay: <phantomcircuit> but that sounded like actual work so i didn't do it
benkay: 'cause i don't know if there's anything chain-specific to transactions
benkay: i haven't had time to investigate this in depth, but don't use the same keys for different altcoins.
benkay: i'll take two.
nubbins`: not much traction, maybe i was too stingy with the terms
benkay: access to the murderous purplesquirt, i think
benkay: somehow soundcloud thinks i'll like this
TestingUnoDosTre: I really enjoy horns and reggae music though, but that's just me
TestingUnoDosTre: the movie is something like "I believe I can fly (Flight of the Frenchies)". It's only like 75 minutes and it's about high linining (aka tight rope walking)
Mats_cd03: (i'm sorry if nobody else knows what i'm talking about)
Mats_cd03: i have no idea who dan deacon is, but he reminded me of ron jenkees when i saw his photo on my screen
nubbins`: and heat, i guess
nubbins`: TBH the only performance i really remember from the whole festival is dan deacon
nubbins`: yeah, i saw him too but i can't remember anything about it
nubbins`: all i remember is that the backdrop was cool and she kept talking about this guy "miike snow"
TestingUnoDosTre: oooo I think I'm gonna love this
nubbins`: i saw lykke li in 2009
TestingUnoDosTre: alright but if I go make a cold wallet on a flash drive, sell the flash drive to my brother, and tell him that he can't use the coins for 2 years, who owns them?
TestingUnoDosTre: for instance, if I go an wire 100$ to mark karp, and I trick myself into thinking I purchased some BTC, I don't really own any
Mats_cd03: i find women beautiful
nubbins`: glad i didn't burn off the kerosene heater yet :D
TestingUnoDosTre: i understand that
TestingUnoDosTre: well I'm sure some people know satoshi
benkay: if other people know who he is, then we're in an entirely different universe and i can't really plan for that right now.
benkay: am i the only one who knows who satoshi is?
benkay: i'm suggesting that others may run the analysis differently.
benkay: just because i trust you to not fuck me does not mean that you won't.
TestingUnoDosTre: like I'm not worried about being scammed of 1000 bTC when I just bought it from someone who has a million btc in holdings
TestingUnoDosTre: yes, but I'm talking about a trusted transaction
TestingUnoDosTre: I didn't quite understand the "every day I don't move ..."
benkay: just think about what i said for a bit. it's just a different perspective.
TestingUnoDosTre: I'm saying that the buyer knows and trusts satoshi
benkay: as soon as i crack that drive i know satoshi.
benkay: TestingUnoDosTre: every day i don't move those coins elsewhere is a day of risking not having them.
TestingUnoDosTre: I do understand that
radan: I knew a guy in Romania who ran a computer cafe
benkay: radan if i might offer a slightly different perspective, you didn't invest in Bitcoin - you bought some bitcoins.
benkay: TestingUnoDosTre: don't know that i understood your question.
TestingUnoDosTre: I read that first loper-os article and I don't think it answers my question.
radan: back when I first heard about bitcoin
radan: else I wouldn't have invested in it
radan: but, more to the point, I do think this btc thing has potential
radan: I went to a public uni
radan: I don't have any debt
radan: I'll earn when I graduate
radan: until I graduate, pocket money is all I've got to play with
radan: I'm a college kid
radan: and I hope they continue to increase in price
radan: all I know is I bought 1.75 btc with my life savings last november
radan: am I reading it right
radan: I read it
TestingUnoDosTre: I've got a question though benkay
radan: I dunno
radan: I don't know what cost means in that context
radan: the fed decides what USD will cost on a given day, as I understand it
TestingUnoDosTre: not what I was getting at
radan: I don't think dogecoin has a regulatory body
TestingUnoDosTre: I don't know if infinite is quite the best word for it, but it's pretty much like the USD
TestingUnoDosTre: sorry, I just didn't want to wait for him to say it :/
radan: I mean
radan: and if it doesn't succeed I'm fucked
radan: cause I put money into it
TestingUnoDosTre: but I also play around with android phones via xda, and I'm not content with just downloading someone else's kernel or firmware and not really understanding the different between a stock android
Apocalyptic: I once wrote a crackme entirely in ASM, was fun
TestingUnoDosTre: I'm mostly interested in playing around with controllers a la beagleboard
TestingUnoDosTre: I've done some programming with C in an assembly course and some embedded C in a robotics course, but I am mechanical engr by background
TestingUnoDosTre: I'm wondering whether I need to throw time at something more introductory before jumping in
TestingUnoDosTre: thestringpuller, I was thinking of doing this edx course intro to linux, do you think that challenge you posted would be more timeworthy?
benkay: company's only been around for 8 months or so, so i consider that good progress.

Mats_cd03: benkay: https://soundcloud.com/jimipaul/james-holden-balance-disc-one theres a few samples with lyrics in that but i think theyre short
dexX7: i'm not. that's probably the root problem :)
benkay: dexX7: i'm assuming all sorts of shit like you're running *nix etc
Mats_cd03: benkay: i dunno... instrumentals or electronic? i like to listen to trance while coding
benkay: Mats_cd03: can you hit me with something non-lyrics-y to which i can read source and documentation?
dexX7: rephrased: i hate myself for being such a newb
dexX7: wow i hate bitcoin.. and linux. so i invested quite some time to figure out how to dump a leveldb database over a shitty putty console only to realize that the result wasn't what i was looking for <_<"

MisterE: I have a playlist I tell each one I made just for them
Mats_cd03: i like to think my taste in music is accessible
benkay: implying some small difference in tastes that i only noticed when the babe came by to apply her test.
benkay: this music you linked passes the babe test, ergo i must burn it with fire and expunge from my area.
Mats_cd03: i hear you loud and clear captain jack
benkay: Mats_cd03: this means i must ban it from the house.
TestingUnoDosTre: I had no clue it was a series
TestingUnoDosTre: haha aright. I just got through it and thought it was absolutely spectacular
benkay: feeling kinda dated at this point, but i haven't read it in at least a decade and you might not want to take a dependency on my notions of things at that age.
benkay: wait how did i get roped into doing trilema support
MisterE: until its not heh. I'd rather be a cook in the military
Mats_cd03: pretty easy job as i understand it
MisterE: where I come from
Mats_cd03: i see
