mircea_popescu: still. i had 10 bux worth of fun
pigeons: i have seen some deals for password cracking, but they weren't steady jobs
Namworld: I'm not sure how you can use them exactly. I just know many companies rent GPU clusters. And price is usually hefty
Namworld: vague? I think GPU clusters can be used for graphical rendering... simulations... password cracking
DeadWeasel: I see that now.. learning is fun.
kakobrekla: and i was just bout ;;rate pigeons -3 rates cause of ratings!
mircea_popescu: but i doubt you had anything to do with it.
mircea_popescu: aanyway, i'm impressed with the entire "rigs are worthless now that you've bought them for me" stuff
Namworld: I don't think he sold all his hashing at that price
Diablo-D3: its in the thousands I think
Namworld: means I'll probably have to sue amazingrando. I'm not sure our conversation records are sufficient at all for this.
pigeons: i remember that, it may have been called that, but strongcoins.com is a web wallet. they used to employ gavin, i don't know currently
mircea_popescu: am i confusing it ?!
mircea_popescu: ugh. i thought solidcoin was this ridiculous one man fork which had like, imaginary nodes with "unspendable" millions and other hacky 16 yo nonsense
Diablo-D3: I mean, its fast, and you get a much more stable chip
mircea_popescu: i have no idea how their shit works, but anyway. was fun
mircea_popescu: but i can't post ?
mircea_popescu: a well, i guess they banned it.
Namworld: I bet they do the same thing for just about everything else... so many empty words
pigeons: I am Mircea Popescu! ask me anything! Q: Who are you?
kakobreklaa: i need it for ma bread.
pigeons: ll i dont accept any inputs without a government tax stamp
jcpham: oooh i want to block silk road
jurov: omg discussion... if they're gonna blosk sdice, i'm proposing to block silk road too
pigeons: I'm a loner Dottie, a rebel
jborkl: I prayed to the easter bunny and the shit came true
mircea_popescu: thing is i kinda like the fucker
jborkl: so, I missed the main conversation- how does jr think he is killing sd?
DeadWeasel: I plan on it.
mircea_popescu: dude i was gonna pop his wottery over a sa account
jcpham: ;;rate DeadWeasel 1 <DeadWeasel> apparently I've gotta whore myself out to get my first Wot Rating.
dub: I'm a romanian porn king: ama
DeadWeasel: apparently I've gotta whore myself out to get my first Wot Rating.
mircea_popescu: jcpham i am literally going to make a iama ama thread
DeadWeasel: i'm looking at it, mp.
DeadWeasel: good idea, I could do localbitcoins.com for some Wot maybe?
jcpham: i'll buy your coins with paypal -10% and sell them to someone else for cash +25%
jcpham: i'm a total jew
jcpham: i trade however seems most profitable to me
jcpham: yeah DeadWeasel I have no tips for you there. it takes time.
DeadWeasel: I set it up last week, now I'm like, wtf do I with this since nobody will do business w/me.
jcpham: i know what happens when you send bitcoins
jcpham: why would i then spend the coins on something i may never see
jcpham: dub i do that anyways
dub: I thought so
jcpham: avalon's unit looks nice. if they let me pay with another method other than btc only, i'd order one
JWU_42: I iwsh i could have used a CC for my BFL pre order
jcpham: that fell apart. i called my cc company and got my money back
jcpham: i had basic units on preorder and paid with cc
dub: jcpham: I'll swap my bfl preorder for your mom
pigeons: i'm certainly not paying for mining equipment that actually exists already
jcpham: i'm not willing to purchase mining hardware with bitcoin
davout: mircea_popescu: if one day we ever physically meet i will insist on an actual penile measurment being performed by a local official
mircea_popescu: davout im sorry, i must have missed that over the sound of you slurping it ?!
Luke-Jr: davout: like I said, not really sure it's worth my time :P
davout: Luke-Jr: code it and I'll submit it
Luke-Jr: Ukyo: was. until I blcoked dice.
Luke-Jr: davout: plus, I expect such a potentially-controversial change would go over easier if someone else did it
Luke-Jr: davout: I only bother with dice because it hurts me really. not sure I care enough to spend the time on your suggestion, though I'd encourage you to bring it up as a possibility in -dev sometime when more devs are around
jborkl: No, thanks I will keep it
Luke-Jr: jborkl: I would advise selling it.
jborkl: Well I mine- and to make more income I bought sdice ---with blocks from mining
Luke-Jr: davout: right now, I'm not even decoding the address
Ukyo: I think txn fees should slowly increase over time, instead of "No more bitcoins generated. so BAM huge txn fee"
jborkl: Holy shit, you know how much crap I read to catch up
mircea_popescu: so, Luke-Jr, when can i expect s.dice to be dead ?
Luke-Jr: I'm even in #litecoin
mircea_popescu: ahaha! dude. you came here because i'm here.
Ukyo: i mean, everyone else in here seems to be argueing aginst you
Luke-Jr: Ukyo: well, I only push right ideas.
davout_: i don't mean to say what other should do, but if i had an easy to way to not relay txes matching certain patterns i'd definitely do it
iz: i get it
Ukyo: I can do mine
Ukyo: i will ask all the other miners to block it
Ukyo: luke: i thikn eleigus pool is hurting bitcoin
davout_: well Luke-Jr somehow has a point, as a simple node i really have no interest in relaying SD txes
pigeons: yeah i think this artificallhy low fee structure we currently have is unsustainable obviously
iz: i think part of the issue is that btc is deflationary and can be difficult for new users to get currency for
mircea_popescu: i bet you nickles to dollars that increasing the fee would simply increase the % of tx belonging to sd.
davout: Luke-Jr: code a forl that doesn't relay sd txes, i'll use it, seriously.
jcpham: i was being ironic
Ukyo: thts not how I understand it
Namworld: I know there is no address balance currently
jcpham: i'm all for monetizing hashpower
jcpham: i think pools and miners should have that option
mircea_popescu: kakobreklaa ya, i seem to recall this incident in octomber last year...
kakobreklaa: mircea_popescu i think mtgox payes luke to include their txes
jcpham: i've been reading for a few minutes and i get lost
jcpham: i doubt anything actually shocks mircea_popescu
pigeons: no maxblocksize is not there to keep the size of the blockchain down, i thought it was there so blocks can be verified and propogated sanely
jcpham: i'm not a fan of the 5GB blockchain
mircea_popescu: no srsly, where can i visit the unanimous community ?
dub: (because its no longer possible to run a node on the hardware I was running it on)
dub: I'm annoyed at SD too but market forces will prevail
Namworld: I don't see the problem with SD transactions.
Namworld: I think every x blocks, there's some milestone achieved?
davout: Luke-Jr: I was under the impression you put words in my mouth, i don't give a fuck about what goes into the blockchain, be it financial transactions or religious messages if you see what i mean
Luke-Jr: davout: I did.
dub: kakobreklaa: yeah, I know this too, just cant help myself sometimes.
davout: iz: just because there are rules everybody agrees upon doesn't mean there is a proper spec, this has been discussed like a million times, and it is why i wholeheartedly welcome the cbitcoin initiative
