mircea_popescu: originally i registered the domain with namecheap ; originally namecheap was a great registrar. meanwhile they went to utter shit, the story is both on trilema an' in the logs.
mircea_popescu: copypaste tons of people were affected and the eventual sale was related.
assbot: Logged on 11-01-2016 06:37:06; copypaste: (if in fact you registered trilema.com on the creation day of 2009-06-07)
copypaste: and i wasn't the only one to open cases in bahamas courts
copypaste: interesting mircea_popescu. i won't ask where you got that intel from, but it means i wasn't the only one affected
adlai: "naked people have little to no influence on society" - mark twain iirc?
mircea_popescu: anyway, judging by the [Ticket#2015121310000406] header it'd seem they sat on this for almost a month - from dec 13 to jan 9th. but whatevers, i was just looking for a pretext to throw the whole dns bullshit away anyway.
mircea_popescu: from what intel reports they had a cowboy period ~in2014 when they stole a bunch of domains, got slapped with some suits, lost a coupla worth their income for the decade and settled right the fuck down.
mircea_popescu: would say to try and extricate themselves from the potential mess).
assbot: Logged on 11-01-2016 06:34:49; copypaste: mircea_popescu: i see you're having trouble with internet.bs - they seized a domain of mine without warning before, and only gave it back when i retained a lawyer in the Bahamas; the domain was 8chan.co
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-01-2016#1366093 << not exactly, at least not yet. we had an exchange, they backed off. (last i heard was "We have already asked the complainant to contact the webhost as we do not provide hosting services and cannot remove any content from the website. We are awaiting their response and will forward you the details once they respond." which is exactly what one'd expect sane people ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 11-01-2016 04:21:48; trinque: hitler doesn't want you to talk to nodes X Y Z, so he barfs up packets with a heathen commands.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-01-2016#1366063 <<< certainly. which is why trb nodes are not all advertised, and we're eagerly awaiting seeing this "pure coincidence". ☝︎
mircea_popescu: "lenin, lived ; lenin, lives ; lenin shat in the bidet!"
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-01-2016#1366053 << i had no idea lenin shat in the bidet before. ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 11-01-2016 03:54:29; asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-01-2016#1366025 << y'know, reimplementing portage in cl (or whatever, fuck, in fortran if you want) instead of python doesn't magically unbreak the foss ecosystem
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-01-2016#1366041 << more importantly, it's not clear to me portage is even useful anymore. since v i mean. ☝︎☟︎
assbot: Logged on 30-07-2015 19:17:09; shinohai: Books too, they had a hard-on for Umberto Eco for some reason, and I could never keep a copy of Foucault's Pendulum
adlai: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-07-2015#1218408 << "never keep"? what does this even ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 11-01-2016 03:51:27; adlai: the fact that i mention foucault all the time doesn't mean anybody pays attention to me obsessively quoting it, either
assbot: Logged on 11-01-2016 03:48:39; kakobrekla: im not convinced absolutity is the absolute condition for measurability
assbot: Logged on 10-01-2016 06:21:12; BingoBoingo: Could simulate these changes with benzodiazepine dependence (which is why people who do the Keto thing recreationally start to feel sick when carbs are introduced, ketosis stops and they undergo a drug withdrawal)
jurov: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=10-01-2016#1364932 They will laugh at you back with your cravings of sugar. ☝︎☟︎
shinohai: srsly? Life in the land of the free ....
jurov: he literally said "stfu, the boiler room is not my responsibility"
jurov: lulz were when they asked PM about it while he ran his 3rd pressconference about syrian refugees in month
jurov: no, home, usually in the tub ☟︎
kakobrekla: natural = in the barn ?
jurov: only few days ago heating in biggest hospital in bratislava fell out and they had to haul women in labour around
assbot: Logged on 10-01-2016 03:54:17; mircea_popescu: but anyway. natural birth has a huge following in the states. almost unknown in yurp.
jurov: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=10-01-2016#1364575 depends which yurp. the slovakistan healthcare deteriorates so quickly that all pregnant women i know did at least consider it. ☝︎
deedbot-: [BitBet Bets Bets] 1.00000000 BTC on 'No' - Connor McDavid will live up to the hype - http://bitbet.us/bet/1198/connor-mcdavid-will-live-up-to-the-hype/#b8
BingoBoingo: K, qntra's slow seems to have a touch of the DDoS. Going to sleep. Anyone who wants to write about Intel's Skylake already having a rowhammer exploit coded for its DDR4 controler feel free to sumbit a piece.
copypaste: BingoBoingo: now i never make assumptions about ownership. quite the opposite. if it's not backed by a private key i just assume i don't own it, less disappointment that way.
copypaste: it has a chance of bouncing back, in the same way that gavin's career has a chance of bouncing back
copypaste: it's probably not worth it though, 8chan is moribund
copypaste: renegotiation of that contract would have to be with ads@8ch.net <Jim Watkins>, not me ☟︎
copypaste: yes i was ben_vulpes, for the month that they were paid for
BingoBoingo: But yeah, my perceptions of the internet continually break and have to recompile
ben_vulpes: copypaste: were you the guy running mp's ads?
copypaste: honestly after this happened to me i went into a deep depression that took months to recover from; all of my perceptions of the internet were shattered. and as an aside that's why i no longer own 8chan
copypaste: indeed. the problem with DNS is how entrenched it is.
BingoBoingo: namecoin could have not sucked, but too late for that
copypaste: but, it would be the best system ever made.
mats: whats this gpg based dns system
BingoBoingo: ;;later tell guruvan thank you for stepping up on this issue
BingoBoingo: "@qntra we always recommend running your own nodes for security. To run with "altruism" as one's security plan is nothing but a fool's errand"
copypaste: BingoBoingo: we all know that the best DNS system is a GPG based one. private key trumps all nebulous ideas of "ownership" and "terms of service".
copypaste: i recommend you retain an attorney in the bahamas like i did
copypaste: i really hope trilema.com will stay online and they won't steal it, but based on my interactions with internet.bs i'm worried
BingoBoingo: And Glibc DNS functions force dynamic linking which is why excised from trb
copypaste: people who own domains are absolutely at the mercy of the registering company, because the registering company IS the actual owner according to ICANN
assbot: The rotten and corrupt Domain Name System (DNS; EuroDNS = thieves) - KimmoA.se ... ( http://bit.ly/1RF4Nlu )
copypaste: well BingoBoingo, i'd also recommend you read this in case you need a refresher on how DNS actually works http://www.kimmoa.se/The_rotten_and_corrupt_Domain_Name_System/ ☟︎
copypaste: internet.bs changed my nameservers to IBS controlled nameservers which served their own ads and intercepted all cookies to the 8chan.co domain
BingoBoingo: copypaste: He changed registrars from namecheap when they went derpy web 2.goatse
copypaste: (if in fact you registered trilema.com on the creation day of 2009-06-07) ☟︎
copypaste: i would further like to let you know that internet.bs has been sold since you and i registered our domains there, of course without notice to us
BingoBoingo: copypaste: I suspect the reason you dislike pete_dushenski aping trilema is he comes from boring Canada and his cool factor and empire potential are limited by that. ☟︎
copypaste: mircea_popescu: i see you're having trouble with internet.bs - they seized a domain of mine without warning before, and only gave it back when i retained a lawyer in the Bahamas; the domain was 8chan.co ☟︎
ben_vulpes: all the while gently raking the rocks and snipping ornamentally at the leaves
mats: one can't just smash japanesu words together with jenga and expect this to be comprehensible
ben_vulpes: you add new bits and try to not knock the whole thing over
mats: but where is the jenga
BingoBoingo: mats: Imagine the rocks are wet and the rake is sodium
mats: i can't visualize this
ben_vulpes: programmers and their bonzai trees of complexity
phf: (trying to debug via serial cable on a pentium 233 is it's own kind of fun....)
phf: the goal was to run it on a libretto and try to eat the first couple of blocks, but it wouldn't even connect to rpc for whatever reason, so i gave up on the whole distraction ☟︎
phf: ben_vulpes: i'll take at look in the next few days, but one quick comment, fwiw i built it on a 32-bit openbsd. ☟︎
asciilifeform: trinque: plaintext node-node link is a doomed thing.
asciilifeform: trinque: i did say this to mircea_popescu.
trinque: hitler doesn't want you to talk to nodes X Y Z, so he barfs up packets with a heathen commands. ☟︎
trinque: asciilifeform: for my curiosity, if the tubes have mouths, could your patch be used by $enemy to alter the topology of the network in ways beneficial to it?

ben_vulpes: lol "the popularity of a tool is proportionate to the amount of time it makes its users waste"
ben_vulpes: tangentially related, i ran across 'sorcerer' the other day. funny little corner of linux, that.
asciilifeform: that is quite certainly rotten to all hell
ben_vulpes: emacs is a good example of tools with which to throttle complexity, aka intelligence augmentation
assbot: Logged on 11-01-2016 03:51:20; ben_vulpes: re: operating systems, i am looking forward to gabriel_laddel's thing.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-01-2016#1366025 << y'know, reimplementing portage in cl (or whatever, fuck, in fortran if you want) instead of python doesn't magically unbreak the foss ecosystem ☝︎☟︎
ben_vulpes: ;;later tell adlai not particularly.
trinque: I just huddle inside emacs talking to myself
asciilifeform: until then, we zombie along, throwing maggotrous pieces at people
adlai: in the wider-than-ba sense of 'thread'
kakobrekla: most of the time when assbots drops down i get yelled at but i almost never actually do something about it to bring it back, yet here it is.
adlai: ben_vulpes: have you followed "cl os" thread much?
trinque: ben_vulpes: that thing gets to be called a desktop environment at best
adlai: the fact that i mention foucault all the time doesn't mean anybody pays attention to me obsessively quoting it, either ☟︎
ben_vulpes: re: operating systems, i am looking forward to gabriel_laddel's thing. ☟︎
ben_vulpes: one could...email the man.
kakobrekla: how would you know that?
adlai: dude vaporized from the face of the logs, although apparently still receives ;;later tells
gribble: mike_c was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 9 weeks, 3 days, 2 hours, 38 minutes, and 15 seconds ago: <mike_c> let's get that thing out the door and get alf some goddamn bitcoin already ☟︎
kakobrekla: im not convinced absolutity is the absolute condition for measurability ☟︎
adlai swears he tried enough times to justify the spam... goodnight now, may tomorrow be soberer and less smeared with shit
adlai: ah there we go.
adlai: who runs mpex.re btw? it's consistently returning empty html tables :(
adlai: maybe a smattering of !down syndrome, but that makes in non-absoloot
adlai: if it's absolute, you should be able to build a stupidometer
