Framedragger: (man, i just remembered one of
the reasons i started hanging around here.
these characters and
their stories..)
mircea_popescu: the system's been around for decades ; i fucked a bunch in my day. recently
they
tried
to close
the
thing down, arrested gals by
the pail, but... from what i hear it didn't
take.
☟︎ vc: I can't
tell if you're serious or not
☟︎ mircea_popescu: listen, romanian
tv exists ~ for a single reason : so a group of like minded
twentysomething chicks can advertise
they're available. goes ~500 bucks unless you're very weird.
☟︎☟︎ vc: most of
them falsely claimed I was wanted by
the FBI
vc: yeah, I did interviews for digi 24, antena 3, antena 1, and uh whatever
the public broadcast one is
mircea_popescu: so how about you stop dicking around and just colocate some boxes and weld
the cages shut ?
vc: phf:
the hardware is set
to get here friday, so it will launch saturday
☟︎ phf: vc: what's
the
time frame on
the server being up? "wednesday or
thursday"
mircea_popescu: vc it sends you a link, it contains a pgp encrypted
thing, you decrypt it and feed it back as $v blabla
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo whadda ya
think ? acceptabru ? i'll clean it up an' send over.
mircea_popescu: alrighty, anything you want
to
tell
teh readership in closing ?
vc: how do I do
this fancy OTP
thing
phf: wait
till you make it
to asia..
vc: I don't really know anything I don't like,
though I did see a gypsy shitting in
the street about a month ago,
that was pretty unsettling
vc: I had lunch at Excelsior in Bucharest, if you know
that place
vc: and asia
the year after
that
vc: nowhere
that's public information :@)
though I plan on backpacking most of europe next year
vc: only after it was all over did I realize I'm
too damn young
to get married
vc: not getting married has allowed me
to pursue
travelling
the world and pursuing other ventures
vc: turned out
to be one of
the best decisions I've made
vc: I almost got married
though a couple years ago
vc: I have no idea of
the republic or
tmsr I just heard shit was hot and poppin' here so I joined
vc: I
take inspiration from GNAA in
that regard,
though I
think I could make it into an actual profit-producing company
mircea_popescu: do you happen
to know
the republic has been looking for an actual republican isp ?
vc: the way I had it described
to me is "almost like ironic professionalism"
phf: "Despite what some may
tell you, cock.li does not
tolerate abuse of its servers. [...] Due
to my privacy policy which protects my user's data, you will probably not receive a response." nice
vc: I don't
think
those are necessarily mutually exclusive ;)
vc: the server hardware I purchased can host a maximum of 280 clients with some more memory and disk space, so after I get it up and running and stable
then I'm probably going
to go for
that
mircea_popescu: do you plan
to pivot from corporate life
to independence with it ? or is it just a hobby on
the side ? for
the lulz ? for
the whats ?
vc: the former is not-for-profit,
the second is for-profit
mircea_popescu: interesting how fragmented
this supposed "bitcoin community" actually is. alright, so what's your plan with
the hoster ? what was it, cock.li ?
vc: I do remember satoshi dice,
though I don't remember buch past
that
mircea_popescu: how about sec sending supoenas
to
this romanian-based dude back in 2012, when
they were posturing about satoshi dice ?
vc: I gave away several bitcoin when
they were worth nothing :)
deedbot: shinohai rated vc 1 <<
Thanks for mail@nigge.rs as well
vc: idk I first got into it in 2010 I
think?
shinohai: $rate vc 1
Thanks for mail@nigge.rs as well
deedbot: mircea_popescu updated rating of vc from 1
to 2 << cock.li hoster ; published "secret" supoena back in 2015.
mircea_popescu: i see. alright, so what are your plans for
the future ?
vc: I was all over
the news in
the US and Romania for 3 or 4 days
vc: someone registered on my public E-mail server and sent
threats
through my service, I was
the only public face other
than
the police or
the school district so I was subject
to a lot of media attention
diana_coman: towns plenty, way better
than Bucharest
too, sure
mircea_popescu: i lived
there for a few years. 2nd bitcoin conference also held
there (timisoara). meanwhile
though, moved
to argentina.
diana_coman: <mircea_popescu> possibly shittiest city in
the whole country.
try brasov or cluj or something eh <- ahahaa, in
that Bucharest is
the only *city* as such...
vc: it's also very cheap
to live here, considering I still work for a US company
vc: it's great,
the internet here is very fast and
the food is very good :@)
Framedragger: vc: k, gotcha.
thanks and
that's useful
to know
mircea_popescu: possibly shittiest city in
the whole country.
try brasov or cluj or something eh.
vc: maybe,
though I have heard bad
things about
the university here, I am currently living in romania ;)
mircea_popescu: ever
thought of
trying something more alligned with
the actual purpose of universities, ie, scoring ? dunno, humanities, bidniss, whatever ?
vc: since
then my decision has been confirmed with professional experience and also I'm
travelling
the world instead which has been leagues better
to me
than university ever was
vc: mircea_popescu: I dropped out because I was at a shit university and also I had a job where I was making as much as with a degree so I didn't really see
the point
pete_dushenski: "The Romania-based e-mail admin concluded his video with
this proclamation: "It’s raining dicks right now. And
the forecast isn’t
that good either.
There’s a 90 percent chance of dicks
tonight and a 90 percent chance of dicks
tomorrow."" << gggggold
vc: Framedragger: I don't
think so,
though I haven't actually received one yet
Framedragger: vc: natural follow-up question: do you
think your ip space is included in
things like fail2ban lists,
then? :)
vc: sure idk what qntra is
though
mircea_popescu: hey, mind doing an interview with me
to be published on qntra ?
Framedragger: vc: re.
https://box.cock.li/ - do you
tolerate responsible and low-bandwidth netscans (TCP SYN and/or ssh-keyscan (which doesn't attempt any ssh auth)) perchance?
vc: it's been broken since
the raids and I only just recently restored from archive.org so
the
theme isn't working yet
mircea_popescu: heh. so do $register <fingerprint> so you're part of
teh wot.
vc: hi i am here for
the party
pete_dushenski: ah k. well i'd rather share a chick
than eat anything with hollandaise on it. but maybe i'm not from
the right part of
the mediterranean.
mircea_popescu: the eggs are drenched in hollandaise ; if
two guys fuck a gal it's hard
to avoid getting cum on your ballsac.
mircea_popescu: really,
the whole exercise is more of a "here\s just how fucking useless your civil registry is"
than anything
mircea_popescu: except "eggs florentine" were named specifically in recognition of
those women'z
talent at not fathering sons with
their husbands.
mircea_popescu: either
that or women
tend
to marry into wealth and change
their name
pete_dushenski: hehe. so what you
thought was evidence really wasn't and what you
thought was upheaval really wasn't. beautiful, really.
the whole charade can't even stand up
to a simple registry check despite centuries of dedicated revisionism
pete_dushenski: ave already been at
the
top of
the socioeconomic ladder six centuries ago.
This persistence is identified despite
the huge political, demographic, and economic upheavals
that occurred between
the
two dates.'
☟︎ a111: Logged on 2016-05-24 12:05 mircea_popescu: ;;later
tell pete_dushenski wait, you had a PANDA baby ?!
phf: i seem
to have a highly useful skill of missing out on b-a drama
mircea_popescu: and
then
they had a dispute and
the court actually bought
the notion one's not copied off
the other.
mircea_popescu: such a pile of shit.
the ancient bbsessionhash as unique session identifier has been renamed
to xf_session and
that's
the extent of
the changes.
mircea_popescu: how
to get all user credentials for any xenforo forum ? put a box in promiscuous mode en route and listen
to
the fucking posts.
mircea_popescu: o lordy. so 1st xenforo "security" improvement : where
the old vbulletin system passed back and forth md5 hashes of passwords (in plain and utf duplicate versions),
the improvement just sends it plain.
