asciilifeform: and for some reason mircea_popescu is reluctant to confront the fact that even he can only remotely afford fab time because it is subsidized by the drool of a billion 'konsooomerz'

phf: mircea_popescu: it's the strategic superiority article's position is what i'm saying. you can rig up ipad to do crypto for you, as long as you shield it in a bunker, install some toy language environment on it and spend some time writing rsa algo in that
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: to crypto on it ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu comes to ft meade and the monkeys make him a personal cray-II from spare partz ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you might not need '$1 computer redditard could buy', but if your only shot at computer was to bake own vlsi in the kitchen, you'd prolly use vernam pad and be done with it.
mircea_popescu: and the problems with "roughly, means 'machine where you can implement new crypto', for mircea_popescu's purposes" should be obvious to someone who astutely points out that there's no math proof for crypto. the same thinking that works there works here, it does not follow i need computers redditard can buy to exist in order for to have crypto.

a111: Logged on 2016-04-22 02:02 asciilifeform: (last i recall mircea_popescu gave somewhere close to 1/10th of a damn, he is to be commended for this)
asciilifeform: and what mircea_popescu thinks of as 'soviet great private life' is all post-'53.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: none from stalin period.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you can mathematicize as perelman but not engineer.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this brings to mind tales of african throwbacks who tried to use condom ~after the fact~ and genuinely believed, i'm told, that it will save them from syphilis/aids/etc
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i meant dinosaur-wiping kind.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: considering mowing, gardening, and peripheral pest control.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what was actually covered ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: again i had this, and it was a real laugh, read the fine print sometime.
asciilifeform: but this is interesting to mircea_popescu because he ~has~ the maneuvering space.

asciilifeform: it is precisely mircea_popescu's story about zeus throwing the other gods
a111: Logged on 2016-04-21 21:25 mircea_popescu: and for that matter i've yet to hear someone go "i'm not sending anything to derpy webwallet / webexchange / webusgtronism because htey don't gpg sign the address"
asciilifeform: just as i would never know about mpex if mircea_popescu had not awakened me from my cave.
asciilifeform: specifically mircea_popescu's reply to same
asciilifeform: so until time T, recipient ~knows~ that message could only have been sent by mircea_popescu, but at time T+e it could-have-been-from-anyone as far as the confiscator, who finds the records, is concerned.
asciilifeform: incidentally if mircea_popescu really needed to solve this 'problem', he easily could, in cryptography world this is known as 'otr protocol', you encipher to a public key generated for the occasion, and the private key for it is later thrown to the wind for hypothetically anyone to know
asciilifeform: midnightmagic: prolly why mircea_popescu specifically does not spit out such receips, i thought this was clear from the thread
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: read the piece. some italian finally managed to miniaturize the thing into the frame
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: also, as general good practice, it'd probably be good to include the address and amount of the withdrawal in the message, perhaps with a date. Currently the message is a constant, so the signature on it feels a little less valuable
copumpkin: consider rating mircea_popescu with gribble."
copumpkin: "Your withdrawal request has been received and will be processed. Note that all withdrawals are verified manually, and they may take up to 48 hours for approval. If 48 hours have ellapsed and you still haven't received your bitcoins please contact mircea_popescu in #bitcoin-assets.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: elaborate plox ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: do you have any idea what, e.g., i, could do with a whole month !
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: even something as basic as ~time~
phf: mircea_popescu: i don't think so, since moses was a man on a mission from god, it would be a distraction for him (from the mission) to choose to become a magi, hence the story
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu has his crackpots mixed up.
phf: mircea_popescu: nah, worst case it doesn't return to a default (typically much more permissive) umask after handling the keys
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: tldr - linked item purports (pgp-signed..) to be account of the hackteam vivisection.
asciilifeform: iirc mircea_popescu explained this some time in 2013 but i haven't the link here.
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu http://pastebin.com/raw/GPSHF04A << lulzy
PeterL: ;;later tell jurov could you look at CoinBr, seems whatever mircea_popescu did messed up the account balance

asciilifeform: see mircea_popescu's site.
mod6: mircea_popescu: yeah, the web-irc thing seems to be fine.
wywialm: mircea_popescu, i certainly aim to create an options market similarly to what you did, but i'm not you.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> shinohai you ever had bimbo bread ? << first time I saw this in a supermarcado i was like "ha! they don't even know..."
trinque: mircea_popescu: yep, it suffers from having been given an inane syntax, the smell of which drives people away from the relational model
a111: Logged on 2016-04-20 03:11 mircea_popescu: meh. mpex managed to flush the book. everyone is kindly asked to reintroduce whatever orders the had. apologies for the inconvenience.

punkman: mircea_popescu: give the show away to who? the guy piping to bash?

hanbot: going through the logs, http://btcbase.org/log/2016-04-19#1453842 <<->> http://btcbase.org/log/2016-04-14#1451677 ...you gonna to stand for that mircea_popescu? ☝︎☝︎

a111: Logged on 2014-10-01 11:58 mircea_popescu: if i were black in the us i would be fucking worried for my children. being ~10% of the population and >50% of the public discourse is how the hasidim suddenly disappeared from history.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2014-10-01#853306 ☝︎
asciilifeform: prolly because unlike mircea_popescu i am not a demigod living outside of time..?

trinque: mircea_popescu: dunno where "merkuh" came from
phf: mircea_popescu: by the way, &from=foo already works, i.e. &from=mircea will only show...
phf: mircea_popescu: so i started working on a proper search, but that takes time, since need a query parser and a query compiler, that's maybe 40% done. but i can give you relatively soon an ability to pass multiple q parameters. so it'll be log-search?q=black&q=jews so that those will stack up, i.e. first grep is applied and the second one is used as filter
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this is still lulzy, imho, wiped by ~whom~ ? 'pencilnecked' whitez ?
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu http://trilema.com/2016/asscience/#comment-117057
asciilifeform: so, e.g., mircea_popescu's lack of eagerness to be buggered, say, by six metre long black cock, is also 'from loathing and ignorance' ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: which pseudopod specifically did they argue 'matters' ? usd ?
asciilifeform: this goes right back to mircea_popescu's old observation re 'jobsworths', i.e. that you can't actually ~pay~ folks to give a fuck
asciilifeform: as mircea_popescu might say, 'jobsworths bore something fierce'
a111: Logged on 2016-04-18 17:13 mircea_popescu: check that out, poor deedbot. blackholed on the hour like clockwork
asciilifeform: i am satisfied that our mircea_popescu has not been stolen!
mircea_popescu: <mircea_popescu> every chimp can punch out another chimp. no chimp made a boat.
a111: Logged on 2016-04-18 16:36 mircea_popescu: why is it that you think yourself the crystal dragon jesus of wrighting boats when you can't as much as punch out another chimp ?
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-04-18#1453427 << it is mircea_popescu'd ideological sauce that these are equivalent or even comparable, i get it. ☝︎
