TomServo: or repeatly fly into a window

asciilifeform: what really boggles my mind is all the folks (e.g. a. schwartz) who were turned loose, with the understanding that they'll report to jail at appointed hour, etc. and no radio collar, etc.; now, they probably won't be permitted in an airport, but mexico is not so far...

mircea_popescu: if you do what your government tells you to do you will end up with a life in prison sentence

TomServo: Oh yeah, that rings a bell. What was the bounty on that?

asciilifeform: btw this kind of thing is a schoolbook example of what 'xxxx can also have problems' means.

chetty: bing0! asciilifeform you got it, they are indeed a whole different species

mircea_popescu: TomServo the best part is where they discuss how "a stiff sentence was appropriate" and then the sentence is... 4 years.

asciilifeform: a lizard goes to the clink when a fatter, more senior lizard wishes it, and not at any other time

TomServo: The sentence comes after Thornsbury admitted his role in a conspiracy to coerce a local drug defendant, George White, into firing his defense counsel.

benkay: what's the difference between drawing on the screen and giving things a place to live?

asciilifeform: it only gives other things a place to live

benkay: i've been concerned about a wm stomping on my emacs bindings, and losing a week to fixing it.

jborkl: I still do not know if he is the biggest idiot on the planet or just a scammer playing idiot

mircea_popescu: fluffypony well left todd a tell, curious what'll come of that.

mircea_popescu: course in my mind it's more like bitcoin-dev's johhny come lately attempt at making a bitcoin-assets without the ass in it

mircea_popescu: reading is not just techne is the problem. which is why there exists such a thing as the educated idiot.

mircea_popescu: people derping about how "we" should live in a world without rape conveniently tend to not mention that rape is in fact the only cure to the particular mental disease that constitutes their powerbase.

asciilifeform: not everyone can apprentice with a master in meatspace, sure. but anyone could... read?

asciilifeform: better - sure. but when you come across a lamer - he's already paying what a very reasonable education would cost - the price of his net connection.

chetty: asciilifeform, a lot of that problem might actually be there are so few real experts

assbot: Re: becoming a better programmer - Naggum cll archive

ThickAsThieves: For a while, Shared Send was the only option. Then SharedCoin was introduced and for a while they were both available in the blockchain.info wallet.

ThickAsThieves: "There used to be something called Shared Send, which was an actual taintless bitcoin mixer and not just a CoinJoin plausible-deniability transaction obfuscator.

mircea_popescu: wow almost a full % huh

mike_c: eurusd is a tough market.

mike_c: wow, bit of a rebound

mike_c: honestly i would rather see a btc investment that bought commodities rather than real estate. with the REITS I feel like people are expecting a BTC return. no one would think that with a commodity fund (similar to x.eur).

asciilifeform: (anyone seriously thinking about bidding up Ga should remember that it is a strategic metal - radar sets live and die by GaAs diodes. so anyone who fucks with the supply is liable to Can Also Have Problems) ☟︎

mircea_popescu: mike_c how about a btc fund that buys gallium ? :D

asciilifeform: if you have two electrodes, put a current through it, while surrounded by electromagnet, it will move x cm up the ring in response to Y amps...

mircea_popescu: but yes a ring of ga.

asciilifeform: ideal container would probably be a toroid, half-empty

asciilifeform: but in that case the ampoule could not be full. you must be able to tilt it, to expose electrode (perhaps a scammer simply placed a resistor there)

asciilifeform: well, 'fake' in this case is, achieve the melting point, with a well-conductive substance

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the definityion of a fake is not being useful.

asciilifeform: so plenty of simple tests, once you pick a suitable container.

asciilifeform: at any rate, Hg has >2x the density of Ga. and the latter, unlike Hg, won't boil on a gas flame.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if you can find me a eutectic solder that melts anywhere near 30C (but not liquid at room temp like Hg) i'll buy it right now.

mircea_popescu: jurov a glass bottle can't be full of a metal ffs.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you sur e ? eutectic is a thing

mike_c: "The company said it would raise $100 million, but that is just a placeholder until closer to the offering date."

pankkake: GoDaddy hasn't made a profit since 2009. The company lost $279 million in 2012. It bled another $200 million last year. This year doesn't look much better, with another $51 million lost in the first quarter

mircea_popescu: in the hopes a clueless buyer will just think a ok it's what itis

mike_c: in the hopes that a clueless worker bee will pay it.

mike_c: i like better the scam where they just send you a bill

mike_c: jurov: no. dime a dozen scam. i throw those out on a weekly basis

mike_c: and i'm sure they just a few points off for their own pockets.

jurov: um a dude from @dc-data.com.cn wrote to me that some company named VOLKAN Tech Ltd. wants to register zillion coinbr.TLD domains

mircea_popescu: "allows man-in-the-middle attackers to trigger use of a zero-length master key"

thestringpuller: should be a semi colon after R&D

thestringpuller: yea davout we are in R&D got held up. the chef is going to bonnaroo this week. Took me a lot to train him.

davout: thestringpuller: oic, weren't you supposed to send me a cookie for some reason i forgot?

davout: it just has a 0,3% floor

davout: fluffypony: if it's $30 for < $10,000/day, $300 for < $100k, $3000 for < $1mn that's still a percentage

thestringpuller: here it's a bit higher

thestringpuller: lol davout i've been developing a cookie company but we want to migrate our profits into btc

davout: well, why don't they give a price then ?

thestringpuller: i'd rather just have a continuous supplier like a miner I can just pay

fluffypony: thestringpuller: yeah, they've been doing flat pricing for a while already - https://bitpay.com/pricing

pankkake: oh klippt is like a word play on "clip"?

pankkake: is it a vietnamese restaurant?

kakobrekla: the investors will make a KLIPPING

fluffypony: now you too can own a piece of an Australian hair salon

jurov: 21:33:19 pankkake:so… investors are going to make a KILLING

pankkake: actually there might have been a year ago, when I wasn't very active

pankkake: danielpbarron: i've seen a few of those cases; overly enthusiastic towards things they don't fully understand

danielpbarron: actually lately he hasn't really mentioned crypto-stuff at all, which is good; I was giving him a hard time for this stuff on twitter

danielpbarron: freespeechme is a firefox plugin; meowbit is a windows-only system-wide thing

danielpbarron: there is a radio host who got obsessed with Namecoin for a time, and caused a couple applications to get written: FreeSpeechMe, and MeowBit

punkman: do they have something more low level? so you don't need a plugin for every app

kakobrekla: namecoin should prolly be a browser extension at this point

danielpbarron: i might be using the wrong slash; it's been a while

danielpbarron: there could be a g/ for gribble usernames, or if g/ is already used, gribble/

danielpbarron: you could instead register id/kakobrekla and it won't give you a .bit, but something else

jurov: One or more of the domain names in your order contain a registered trademark. DAFUQ

kakobrekla: oh wow, someone took a dump in propositions

fluffypony: the forum is a gold mine today!

fluffypony: "Well to sum things up, he changed millions of dollars into few cents and advised us to go out running and apply a holistic approach to the situation."

fluffypony: "Mhm, I met Garr a couple months back in real life.. Can anyone give me a summary of what happened?"

punkman: gotta be a troll

pankkake: you made a typo in your previous command

gribble: Error: "getinfo" is not a valid command.

joesmoe: [11:51] gribble: Error: Username already registered. Try a different username.

pankkake: it replies in a notice

davout: do i read this one correctly or is euronext valued somewhere around a fifth of whatsapp

BingoBoingo: It's what makes sense on a widescree portable

punkman: BingoBoingo: is there a log of ATC diff changes somewhere?

BingoBoingo: Indeed. The most profitable move in ATC might be to bet large on yes, wait for people to match it and then add 1TH/s a week to ATC's baseline hashpower until the bet resolves.

BingoBoingo: punkman: Well considering ATC alternates between difficulty periods that take 4 days and those that take... much longer... No seems like a safe bet, but too safe.

TheNewDeal: there's a lot of fudge room

BingoBoingo: It's been a while

TheNewDeal: the last time there was a 6% change was ?

TheNewDeal: no way it's a coin flip~

BingoBoingo: TheNewDeal: Maybe we wait a week. At the moment I think it looks like a bit like your side is more likely, but it is close to a coin flip.
