mircea_popescu: jurov when this prototyping started it was the size of
a breadbox
jurov: but half
a smartphone isn't very convenient to keep on myself all the time (for disposable communication-related keys and protection from unauthorized use)
jurov: well, that gives me
a pause... iirc it is not supposed to house very valuable gpg keys such as mpex accts, cuz no backup and it's too easy to erase
mircea_popescu: jurov seriously, atm the form factor is roughly the size of
a smartphone
jurov: so i should get
a gf to be able to hide it securely?
mircea_popescu: jurov i think the only body cavity able to hide it would be
a well worked vagina, the sort pankkake favours
jurov: will cardano include
a kit for hiding it in body cavities?
kakobrekla: cause its just
a bunch of newbs trading 5$ worth back and forward
darby:
a lot more people than i would've expected

mircea_popescu: o, mpoe bot has
a different interface to the trade engine, it can't be affected by this stuff
FabianB_: it's more of
a depth bot, not volume, isn't it?
mircea_popescu: anyway, it wasn't an attack of any sort or even related to outside influence. it was
a problem stemming from the too stringent checking imposed on proxy synchronization after the last adventure, which in an edge case put everything in
a paranoid state.
FabianB_: yeah, i wouldn't trade on mpex without being here or checking logs once in
a while

ozbot: Re:

ozbot: Center for
a Stateless Society » Internet Security Is Our Responsibility
nubbins`: little bit less obscure than last year's costume of the 2 characters from
a short film "umshini wam"
nubbins`: she was going for
a beastie boys "sabotage" kinda look
VanCleef:
a woman gives birth, and
a guy comes in and does her
dexX7: well, they are already looking for investors as it seems. i filled out the "i'm interested form" and promptly received
a mail with
a request for
a telephone call
mircea_popescu: also, re the earlier discussion : sm is
a marketplace for illiquid assets. it's not that it just magically gets past the hoops winklevoss have to jump through, it's
a very specific thing
mircea_popescu: the girl accused him of insider dealing, he swore he didn't have
a clue wtf nefario was doing
mircea_popescu: anyway, you're too new to know, but the way glbse croaked was like this : theymos announced
a private sale of his glbse stock (+ some aussie scammer's)
dexX7: next question: people on reddit say theymos is
a scammer, why?
mircea_popescu: (also, fb IS
a motherfucking scam. not at all in the same sense, of course)
mircea_popescu: o, people love to challenge me. because i'm such
a snotty asshole see ?
Kleeck_: It help to have
a circle of intelligent people that you respect.
mircea_popescu: i guess judging by the site is
a superficial approach to life.
pankkake: companies who have no intention to make their investors richer would be
a more explicit label ;)
Kleeck_: I read an article about it
a month or two ago
Kleeck_: It's
a well known alt market.
mircea_popescu: and as far as to the "were traded there" : i can put up
a website tomorrow which claims to be trading your mom. this does not imply anything about the actual lady's probity.
mircea_popescu: but instead find
a sales pitch intended for people with
a financial iq corresponding to about the age of 15 ?
mircea_popescu: no, i have specific things in mind. for instance, how come i can't find
a name ion the about us page,
dexX7: hm i don't know what it is exactly, but it's
a plattform for accredited investors. afaik some big companies like twitter were "traded" there
VanCleef: bitcoin is
a scam so yeh its
a scam
mircea_popescu: VanCleef you know, for
a site that nobody uses i'm always surprised to see public channels notice any hickup
a minute before or
a minute after the tech people whose job it is.

jurov: anyone successfully placed
a command to mpex in past 3 hours?

a useful description of what <command> does. <plugin> is only necessary if the command is in more than one plugin.
bloctoc: The response from GoDaddy Founder: "I now own
a SaveToby.com mouse pad"
dexX7:
A man claims to have found an injured, young rabbit under
a porch one day, and then nursed it back to health. He then named the rabbit Toby. This individual swears that he will have Toby butchered and served for dinner on June 30, 2005, unless he is able to raise $50,000 in donations or merchandise sales.
dexX7: hmhm.. i'm not sure what exactly the issue was, but do you remember when almost all godaddy related/hosted websites went black
a year ago or so?
dexX7: it's
a wonder that he is still on the nets
dexX7: @AnonymousOwn3r << this guy is
a joke
mircea_popescu: meanwhile back at the ranch, "Michelle Obamas Princeton classmate is
a top executive at the company that earned the contract to build the failed Obamacare website"
benkay: nearly
a year and
a half!
benkay: no, i got shot of actual physical fucking atoms
a year ago
benkay:
a full day of fighting stupid computers
mircea_popescu: apparently one of them being
a very improbable occurence they lucked out on. once.
KRS1: heh thats quite
a picture
mircea_popescu: sort of like
a 3d printer + desktop combo, but made out of cunt tissue and capable of pissing apples.
mircea_popescu: it's basically
a game of "twelve lines" or "six lines" or w/e
mircea_popescu: except people have found
a way to get investors to pay for it
benkay: 'cause that's how one prevents
a pot plant from going to seed
benkay: why would you put those genes in
a plant that fruits?
benkay: on the same note, everything that increases agricultural output is
a bad thing 'cause it leads rather quickly to more humans
mircea_popescu: benkay i will trust
a natural process, such as viral transfer, on the grounds that in millenia of practice it failed to make the world dangerous for me.
mircea_popescu: it means to have undergone this process where random bits of dna were thrown at
a large number of cells just like it, in the hopes that something maybe catches.
benkay: i'm quibbling about what it means for
a thing to be
a "genetically modified organism"
KRS1: benkay: engineers reprogram for instance the dna of
a tomato so they grow really big and feed more people..
a really simple example
benkay: f.ex: an organism identified to carry
a certain set of genes bred with another organism some breeders would like to see that gene in
benkay: i just want
a little more subtlety in the conversation
benkay: he even got you worked up
a few times
nubbins`: i watched
a documentary on that soap
a while ago
mircea_popescu: ahaha, wait, the "fuck asics, i'll make
a heat oven PMG" ?
monkey`: that trashbag mircea popescu selling
a new pump and dump?
nubbins`: you sure you're not
a youth volunteer?
nubbins`: anyway, the issue arose because the ghanaians don't feel comfortable questioning "authority" figures, and the supervisors were explaining that here in canada if you don't understand why you're doing something, you ask, because you're trying to be
a part of our culture
