C01DA51CE: i think its only through DirectShow
asciilifeform: damned if i know. it's been out for days. 'spent'.
ThickAsThieves: i find it hard to believe that a JPG exploit can exist by mistake...
mircea_popescu: i agree.
C01DA51CE: http://i.imgur.com/w4PCJ9I.jpg
thestringpuller: asciilifeform i'ma start using that one
KRS1: I knew it..there was like this dog once who always walked kind of sideways...ever since I first saw it I kind of wondered.
jcpham: gay dogs porn was something i didn't entirely want to see today
KRS1: who knew there were gay dogs..i kind of wondered since I once saw a boy dog trying to hump another boy dog.
benkay: i guess it's hard to see his penis in that photo
artifexd: Also, for the record, I think that increasing the block size right now is a dumb idea, not necessary and counter-productive to the desired result.
artifexd: I have a prior engagement that I have to attend to. I will think on this.
mircea_popescu: (and for the record, i'm not arguing that this would be a particular venue of attack, i am merely showing how my thread length/surface metaphore is much better than your lock/lockbox metaphor)
mircea_popescu: an infinite block size is worse than the "1st char of the md5" hash scheme i just proposed.
artifexd: I don't argue with what your saying. I would instead say that this particular manner of attack would be monumentally stupid in the case of bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: should i claim thje actual block really was "Jesus hates blacks &^ faggots" ?
mircea_popescu: that i have.
artifexd: I'm fairly well versed in block/transaction/hash/etc mechanics and I am trying to wrap your metaphore around that structure. It doesn't make sense. I normally have a high amount of respect for what you say. In this case though, I think you're wrong. Or, I don't understand the variety and thus need more lurking.
mircea_popescu: i don't see a problem.
Neil: These things should be chosen by the market, just like fees. I doubt we'll get blocks much bigger than 1MB for a long time to come, even if there weren't a limit now.
San1ty-Work: VanCleef: I heard some rumors that they are planning to deploy 1600 PH
Neil: I don't know, it's my belief.
Neil: Well I believe the block size will increase. But also with say ~1k txns per 1MB block, I don't see people paying an average fee of 0.0013 BTC. Especially as I expect BTC to be significantly higher than today.
Neil: mircea_popescu: No way in 2016... I don't see blocks with 12.5 BTC fees, and certainly not at 1MB
Neil: mircea_popescu: More than I thought... I keep a record of it all
jcpham: mircea_popescu it's over 9000 I just checked
mircea_popescu: Neil: I'm definitely in the top 3 bettors on bitbet; wouldn't be surprised if #1 by amt of BTC bet. Scary. << how much is that ?
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell Chris_Sabian i wouldn't be too worried about it. 2013 made bitcoin, it's a cut deal.
C01DA51CE: i guess
KRS1: i dont like the mango skin..and they grow like mad here
C01DA51CE: yeah i wouldnt eat the skin but
KRS1: yes i dont like them
KRS1: i am +5 and after midnight bitcoin chans here are dead
cazalla: yeah, i am drunk and really should go to bed
C01DA51CE: i have no idea
C01DA51CE: I are try again soon
kakobrekla: I AM DISAPPOINT
kakobrekla: i thought you gonna carry on with the insults
kakobrekla: i dont have either so you must be stoned.
C01DA51CE: i think it was of kakobreklas sister
C01DA51CE: i found some dirty porn
C01DA51CE: i see.
Neil: If it gets to $5k I imagine it'd be possible to spend most places; no need for fiat any more. Certainly given a year or two at that level.
cazalla: i could fuck them now but she'd leave me
Neil: Well if it hits $5k I'm retiring.
cazalla: i can't remember the article but it mentioned idiots who happened across bitcoin and made some money
cazalla: if i was sober, i'd shut up and read more logs
cazalla: blow fish face but i was desperate to drink, nothing in the house but this crap
cazalla: i learned that i shouldn't try to chug champagne from the bottle
kakobrekla: i should buy you a drink then!
Neil: But I don't use 1 address
Neil: I lowballed :)
kakobrekla: i think the biggest roller is 10%
Neil: Confirmed total: 12,479 BTC on bitbet's site. I'm well over 5% of that.
Neil: I'm definitely in the top 3 bettors on bitbet; wouldn't be surprised if #1 by amt of BTC bet. Scary.
btcinmypocket: Neil: Well, that data was provided by someone(s) who had the lack of ethics to include bitcoin stealing trojans in with the publication, so I don't doubt you have finding problem with the records. I would expect that they would mess with a bit if there is incentive.
cazalla: I think you are right
Neil: I doubt they deleted anything
cazalla: I am worried about ID, I cancelled/deleted my account which after 90 days they said they purge details but I fucking doubt it
Neil: I had nothing there; know many who did though. And ID etc.
cazalla: if it was obvious to me at that point, i don't doubt smarter people bailed long before that
cazalla: i bailed on them after the 5m confiscation
Neil: I viewed it more as a BTC bet, y'know.
Neil: Gox closing was one of my bets too; I got that one right :) Just a bit too early...
Neil: Yeah they sometimes pay off spectacularly. I blew up on the MtGox $150 1March; if he'd only hung on another 4 days...
cazalla: i love the long shots :)
Neil: cazalla: Yeah I think that's not gonna happen
cazalla: hope not, i'm betting yes for http://bitbet.us/bet/705/btc-difficulty-to-increase-by-more-than-30/
Neil: Well I had the initial bet. Not bet since then... but it'd be a nice win if it happens
Neil: I think block 290303 needs to have a timestamp of 13/03/2014 05:57:02 or laster. But not certain.
Neil: That was my bet I think
ThickAsThieves: [22:54] <mike_c> A hyperactive stock market is the pickpocket of enterprise. /// hadnt read that one, i like it.
the20year2: When I got into real estate, i didn't believe the statistic they told agents. So, I individually tracked dozens of properties in my area that were listed without realtors, vs those listed with them
the20year2: If I have control what I do is usually 2% to the listing agent and then 3% + $2500 for the selling/buyer's agent
the20year2: I don't know how many foreclosed houses I've been in that were 2nd time foreclosures in a 3-5 year period where the buyer had bought a foreclosure in the hopes of doing it themselves, then never completing repairs
Chris_Sabian_: and we trust that you can do that. I trust that you can do that....
the20year2: That's why I did the stock offering instead of just going to a local bank and asking for a loan. The bank wants to see properties in good shape with 3-6mo of cashflow before they'll lend
Chris_Sabian_: i would assume that you have some kind of background, fiance or history check with renters before you rentent?
the20year2: Property #1 was $62k>$115k , #2 was $33.5k > $55k , I expect #4 to be $37.5k>$80k
Chris_Sabian_: i don't follow
the20year2: I agree, however it's one of those things, if we can reach a position where leverage is open, btc pricing will largely be irrelevant because we'll just be playing arbitrage on the variations in interest/property ields
Chris_Sabian_: btc prices are low right now, i would hold off selling for $$ until the gox crap is over
Chris_Sabian_: i'll see how the next 30 days or so go. i may throw 5 btc at rental and see what happens
Chris_Sabian_: i may pick up some then
the20year2: I'd say 30 days from now
the20year2: The video logs for properties #4 and #5 make me excited, since they're both big rehab jobs and I do believe they'll come out good. I've got part of the #4 video edited and voice-overed. My plan is to break up the voice-over version between properties so I can get feedback on what people like
the20year2: I try to keep everyone updated. The video logs and the audited finaicial reports I think will put us over the top in terms of quality of transparency
BingoBoingo: Thanks. I've got a piece to sell, because fucking Dreamhost emailed me that the hosting's renewal is coming up soon.
asciilifeform: i think i threw this one in here at one point!
BingoBoingo: Once I finish my write up on baseball betting I might give translating it a shot.
asciilifeform: caveat - i've never seen this ritual alive, personally.
asciilifeform: i imagine the pisstest is a massive boondoggle for folks selling GC/MS gear.
asciilifeform: but i do not know whether this tradition is 'honoured in the breach'
asciilifeform: all i can tell from my perch - somebody must be buying those false bladders and their refills.
MAKABEakira: BingoBoingo, we're just acquaintances so i'm ok with some light hearted abuse at liver's expense
benkay: it's the kind of hilariously fucked up situations you get under communism i guess
MAKABEakira: next time i have to do a UA (which is never) I should stock up on some methylene blue beforehand
asciilifeform: chum of mine worked at a military lab where they occasionally tested people (oddly enough, the one where i worked - never. other than enlisted men) and noted that there was usually warning.
asciilifeform: it isn't unheard of - a shop not far from where i live actually sells... false piss.
asciilifeform: bureaucrats account for a small fraction, as i understand.
