mircea_popescu: if
i gotta bring the romanian rapper chick exampl;e again...
dub: is the person
I am trusting likely to assign trust blithely
dub: in the community
I referenced its generally people who have interacted at a professional level over time, they require registration before attending so you know who you are goign tobe signing for and can stipulate what references they need to bring
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Well,
I thought the carnal part was implied...
nubbins`:
i really need to read more about all of this
dub: pirate still had a pretty good rating last
I checked
nubbins`:
i'm not sure
i understand this, he's just some guy who goes around signing people's keys?
nubbins`: maybe
i should demand a qr code be held up to the peephole
mircea_popescu: dub
i agree indeed you might like such surety,
i still believe you'd rather check with gribble than with the pgp wot
nubbins`:
i always answer the door; depending on who it is and the time of day,
i may or may not carry a hammer in my other hand
nubbins`:
i'm sure there are plenty of uses for WoTs outside of btc-space, but
i can't think of any that would apply to me
dub: well there is a secondary economic'ish incentive, if netop at europa net signs a message to me asking me to null korea due to an outbreak of k-pop
I might like some surety its him and not the NSA
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Should people really still be using PGP as an acronym.
I figure it is better to bury it with GPG references.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
I agree in nearly all cases.
jborkl: Just a example kako.
I of course don't trust anyone you give a good wot
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo would it make a substantial difference to you should you discover "
i" am really a 24 year old busty blonde woman ?
jborkl: That is already WOT, if mp or kako give someone a good wot.
I don't really worry
BingoBoingo:
I'm thinking not quite that far yet.
I'm thinking a place to start is people with notary services offering to endorse key is person. After that introduction of key is person trust can be built.
BingoBoingo:
I think GPG notaries are where it is at this next decade. Local dude established in a few WOTs signs public keys of people who meet him in person to establish the connection between their public key and identity.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo
i am looking forward to the day where email works like mpex
jborkl: Nice vacation,
I need one of those
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Yeah.
I figure this way anyone who wants to email me has to do the work to get the email address from the public key block. It keeps the lowest common demoninators out of my inbox even if it lets the bots harvest my addie.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
I made the mistake of handing my email addy to younger sibblings and older relatives. This is why the only way to get an email address off of the blog has to come from importing the GPG key.
jurov:
i'm tired and decided not to do stuff at such ungodly hour as 5am
mircea_popescu: aite,
i'm not quite that knowledgeable on teenager brain rot
nubbins`: in one of the t-shirt group buys
i did, some asshole grabbed a transaction id that someone else had already posted and PMed me with it, asking for a shirt
pigeons:
I like how Ahser brings the lunch
mircea_popescu: at this rate
i'll just end up hung in a rats nest of cables and lines of code.
pigeons: hmm then why did
i still get sick?
jurov: oh, and to rectify power problems,
i'd recommend optical power couplers instead of transformers.
kakobrekla:
i guess ill stay with little boys then!
dub:
I thought
I'd worked with some incompetent motherfuckers before
mircea_popescu: no,
i just had the dubious idea of having the proxies make something sort of like a blockchain
imsaguy: mircea_popescu: at least
I'm equal opportunity with my hating.
smickles:
i feel like someone is trying to sell chocolate on the front lawn of hersheys
kakobrekla:
i think thats too much for my math skills, do
i have to divide by 0?
imsaguy:
I like being the last person to hold the bag
bidji: Good luck with your investment,
i'm happy with mine and wanted to share
kakobrekla: thats why
i suggest you shut the fuck up and lurk moar
bidji: that's why
i suggest you test it
dexX7:
i think trading is locked atm
dexX7: but anyway,
i never traded on that website, but it feels soo smooth and fast *_* (
i'm serious)
dexX7: hm
i would almost bet that there were ~33358 shares remaining 8 hours ago, too...
bidji: Do you remember the mcxNOW IPO
i talked abour earlier?
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla
i had asked 3 different people so far, which all promised they're going to do it.
smickles:
i just didn't expect it with such a long url joke-seeming things
KRS1-:
I think you got your decimal point in the wrong place, FOO
mircea_popescu:
i could share that for the low low price of 4506982753094509 btc
mircea_popescu: next time someone asks me how
i know all this shit ima be all like "dude... my raids crashed".
mircea_popescu: dude with all these crashed raids,
i now have the bitcoin/usd rate from unixtime 45788995934578218
jurov: "blow stamps"
i like this!
jurov: thx kakobrekla looks like
i need this
ozbot: How
I compiled TrueCrypt 7.1a for Win32 and matched the official binaries
nubbins`: "
i'm sad that rich people are losing money"
KRS-:
I wasted my money on BFL and made a few bucks =/
jurov: then
i dont need to know anything more
bidji: Yeah
i try ;)
I can't be worse than him for sure
bidji:
i doubt it will go this low. Maybe 0.35, but not sure
skinnkavaj: It's going to get dumped even if it does sell out, which
I doubt.
skinnkavaj: Personally
I am waiting until next week when it's going to be 0.2BTC/share
bidji: That's why
i think 0.4BTC/share is a very good deal. The potential of growth is huge
Apocalyptic: <bidji> objectively, 10% yield is pretty good. But
i think the future growth can be really good, because the owner will add gaming/gambling on the site
nubbins`: granted,
i can't recall a romanian national ever being extradited to america to face charges for something they did while in romania, so there doesn't appear to by any particular need to give a fuck
skinnkavaj:
I would like to fuck MPOE-PR and never touch her again
nubbins`:
i don't think mpex gives a particular fuck about US regulations
kleeck:
I do love Puppet though. He's the guy running around the party telling everyone who is smoking that they're damaging their lungs, and everyone that is drinking underage or doing illicit drugs that they're breaking the law.
nubbins`: y'know,
i'm kind of surprised havelock is still allowing US customers
ThickAsThieves:
i only glanced, but
i dont see trade fee income on these sheets
nubbins`: while
i've never read "the mythical man-month",
i'm told it addresses this very problem
nubbins`:
i thought skinnkavaj was just a random word generator with a bias towards "ltc"
☟︎ Apocalyptic: pankkake,
i'm sure you would be great at it
skinnkavaj:
I think we need to change definition of ponzi, it's thrown out every time when something is not understood. Even by respected people in the community like ThickAsThieves. Can anyone update wiki page?
pankkake:
I'd make myself banned all the time by trolling and be rich (well, if
I was getting the fees)
skinnkavaj: ThickAsThieves: If you think about it, it's genius and have very good reason to be legit. By giving out 25% of all profit generated, they draw attention from users and from investors. And they are more likely to trade there.
I am not affilaited with the site, but
I saw it's potential early.
skinnkavaj: ThickAsThieves: Seriously, google ponzi sceheme.
I think you and many else need to learn what it means.
ThickAsThieves: stinkavag, when
i say ponzi, all
i mean is that they are not making as much profit as are gicing out
skinnkavaj: Apocalyptic: Like TAT is some holy god.
I have much respect for TAT. But almost lost it now when he throw a word like ponzi, without any resarch.
