ozbot: ActiveMining/Labcoin: a comparison
mike_c: mpoe-pr fights the good fight for a healthy salary. i don't know why you bang your head against that wall.
deadweasel: this is where your 'truthing' gets you, on a train stomping some poor teenager for .2 btc.
deadweasel: BingoBoingo has a point, you just priced yourself like a whore.
deadweasel: well, that's the majority of the worlds opinion, as most don't know their ass from a hole in the ground.
mircea_popescu: latest on retarded blog : "president of aol is a pussy, i sent him messages to meet me at any train station of his choosing he said he doesn't use trains"
pankkake: <minerpart> I've offered to meet him at any railway station in France as I'm southern England. He's a pussy, he wont meet me. A sad little prick with a big internet presence. You know what that means - he's never fucked a girl. Probably followed a few home though then gone home and jerked himself off.
pankkake: <minerpart> His grandmother was probably raped by a Nazi storm trooper. That's makes him Bastard Nazi offspring. Pure scum.
ozbot: ActiveMining/Labcoin: a comparison
pankkake: <minerpart> I've met a lot of French people and they are 100% decent and down to earth. But then you always get the odd little shit who would fuck his own mother for cash - that's pankkake.
pankkake: <minerpart> yeah I nkow, pankkake quoted this channel earlier. He is a dirty fucking French prick and he knows it. Just like his Nazi sympathising grandparents he is scum and will do anything for dirty cash.
HeySteve: I believe Kennedy was on a lot too
deadweasel: I was just reading what Morell injected into HItler everyday, what a ride that must have been:
deadweasel: clearly, the failure lies in kakobrekla not being re-banned in a timely m anner

KRS-One: I need a bait now.
benkay: bitcoin payments to the world's largest fuck-your-copyright stash of porn is a cool thing to build
benkay: yeah too bad content delivery is totes a solved thing
benkay: the integral of the porn production curve is a SHITLOAD OF PORN
mircea_popescu: BACK THEN making a thumbnail autogallery could well be 50k in fees and free passes for everywhere
mike_c: whoa, what do you want to advertise that would mean buying out tpb? that's probably 300 btc a month.
mircea_popescu: oic. perhaps you got a point there.
mircea_popescu: i wonder what would average joe do if someone made an ipad app counting all the money he's lost each day over being a total derp.
deadweasel: 300% interest, but no! it's a lease fee!
deadweasel: I was raised in a check cashing company.
ozbot: Goatse.cx pivots again to become a Dogecoin supporter | The Verge
ThickAsThieves: http://www.theverge.com/2014/2/12/5405174/goatse-cx-pivots-again-to-become-a-dogecoin-supporter
mircea_popescu: it is a major racket, that
mircea_popescu: to rob a bank via bomb device with artsy cane gun, so as to have enough funds to pay for the weird character's murder of the woman;s father
mircea_popescu: gets trapped in a plot between some ugly broad who thinks herself important and some really weird character
mircea_popescu: highschool drop-out that's been working for 30 years as a pizza delivery boy
asciilifeform: so presumably this was written from a jail. which one? where?
asciilifeform: anybody here care to recommend a 3840x2160 display?
mircea_popescu: well ok ok im forcing a point.
jurov: people could generally write a c compiler? that was average 2yrs ago?
mircea_popescu: we've gone from "people could generally write a c compiler" to "people could not generally write hello world"
mircea_popescu: b) overall, the sum total of network time the cloudflare "customers" lost owing to cloudflare being a pos exceeds by degree of magnitude any mitigated "attacks"
mircea_popescu: a) no cloudflare "customer" was ever protected by cloudflare of a "400 gpbs" attac
asciilifeform: good gift for these folks: a rubber hose. with mouthpiece and arsepiece on the respective ends.
asciilifeform: used to be that mr. luser had to bite the bullet and delete a pron or two, download the blocks.
mircea_popescu: which is quite a problem, really.
asciilifeform: brotha can ye spare a dime/node
mircea_popescu: but no, originally there were ~60k as a high point cca 2011
mircea_popescu: well, 10 dimes in a dolla.
asciilifeform: thought these were a dime-a-dozen
mircea_popescu: all these idiots with their web bs are caught in a cloud of pseudotx relying
mircea_popescu: if anyone has a reference client they're not running atm, or space to run one : please do so.
mircea_popescu: Duffer1 seems smart enough. i don't recall the last time a large fiat corp had a smart ceo.
mircea_popescu: give the man a cookie. who is this ?
ThickAsThieves: full text for the item is "Bitcoin will continue to attract more people as a store of value and a speculative investment asset. I predict that the value of Bitcoin still has the potential to double by the same time next year. But I believe it will have a hard time becoming mainstream as a currency, due to its expected continued volatility amidst regulation authorities and governments
mircea_popescu: some currencies out there are a bitcoin, if a very primitive sort and for short intervals.
mircea_popescu: it never was a "currency" to begin with.
asciilifeform: not as a currency << as a coffee warmer?
ThickAsThieves: 4. Bitcoin will continue to gain ground (but not as a currency)
asciilifeform: a kingston, for the navally-noobish:
mircea_popescu: she's a commie by default.
mircea_popescu: course the serious rapists would just start carrying strap-ons, but what's a feminist to know of economy
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that's actually a decent brand
mircea_popescu: afaik they haven't yet decided whether they wish to have a future as the irc network where bitcoin happens or would rather not have any future at all.
mircea_popescu: it's a good reserve power anyway, if we ever need to make our own irc network.
asciilifeform: and it would all fit in a page or so of your favourite prog. language.
asciilifeform: in the proposed experiment, you get a whole bunch of problems solved 'for free', without moving parts
ThickAsThieves: at least it wasnt a billion...
mircea_popescu: no wait i was wrong, it did 60k lines in a month. so about like this thing.
asciilifeform: you'd 'log in' once, by sending a tx with some specified value to 'A' (addr of 'channel') and two others, say, X and Y. low byte of every tx value X->Y is a payload byte.
mircea_popescu: before that, it was doing 5k lines a day or some shit
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: imagine if every byte you threw in this channel cost a few satoshi. << eventually the chan will work like mpex, +m and it costs w/e to have voice.
mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic: "mark karpeles was raised in a romanian orphanage" << wait, WHAT ?!
nubbins`: that's a first
nubbins`: just got a forum PM for a guy looking to do a face-to-face casascius-for-cash trade
Apocalyptic: a wallet can have more than 100 adresses
benkay: a gpg keypair is meant to endure through many many uses.
benkay: jurov: that's a little pedantic, neh?
benkay: this is one of the reasons I want a cardano.
ThickAsThieves: gpg to the infrequent user is a little more tedious
ThickAsThieves: verification of a message or identity
pankkake: bitcoin's encryption choices come from the need to have small outputs too, gpg doesn't and can thus do a lot of other things
benkay: btc keypairs are ephemeral. gpg has a whole toolchain around the use-cases for crypto that have, you know, actually been thought through.
benkay: "we need a feature!" strikes again.
benkay: just because there's a keypair in there doesn't mean one should use it.
pankkake: supports revocation, too. basically bitcoin signatures are "lower level", you have a public/private key and that's it
Apocalyptic: why would people use that whereas there is a GPG identity system based exactly for that purpose, much older and wider spread
Apocalyptic: i never really got why gribble allows a btc-address based identiy
pankkake: creates a false sense of security at least
pankkake: eh, a few months ago, I was looking for something to write, and a guy told me "make otc user friendly"
benkay: receive and process response to challenge, return "yes" or "no" to service who's curious about a particular login
ThickAsThieves: <pankkake> I was thinking of creating a service for that. pay X coins to create an identity that will be allowed without captchas on any compatible website ---- this falls under same premise as me wanting the WoT to be user/service friendly
asciilifeform: anyone with a btc node could be the 'server.'
pankkake: I was thinking of creating a service for that. pay X coins to create an identity that will be allowed without captchas on any compatible website
benkay: now imagine if emails cost a few satoshi.
asciilifeform: it would be a little slow. perhaps more like mailing list than irc.
asciilifeform: imagine if every byte you threw in this channel cost a few satoshi.
asciilifeform: one could imagine a 'decentralized conference'. send ascii chars as low-bytes of TX to addr A.
ThickAsThieves: it's a lot of people doing alone, what they could be doing together
ThickAsThieves: "Has anyone thought about holding a decentralized conference as well? "
Apocalyptic: "mark karpeles was raised in a romanian orphanage" // mircea may have some insights on that
deadweasel: or with the elp of a dildo/yoga ball
KRS-One: how do i search the #bitcoin-assets log? Just do a google search?
ThickAsThieves: i linked it a day or two ago
KRS-One: haha! she's a good catch
