mircea_popescu: in fairness fluffypony always drove it as a research interest.
copypaste: as mircea told you, there can only be one
assbot: The woes of Altcoin, or why there is no such thing as "cryptocurrencies" on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1fsGWG5 )
copypaste: fluffypony: http://trilema.com/2014/the-woes-of-altcoin-or-why-there-is-no-such-thing-as-cryptocurrencies/
mircea_popescu: who knew the geeks were going to take their "go to the prom with their friend dressed as a woman" to its logical conclusion.
mircea_popescu: fluffypony yeah but this is the spawning ground of long tail events. the chances of the us ever mattering were about the same as argentina's.
fluffypony: let's be fair, though, the chances of Monero ever becoming the largest cryptocurrency is about the same as the chances of mircea_popescu secretly being a woman all along
mircea_popescu: lol take it easier mah dear activists, there's need of educators also, as that femininemagic chick pointed out :D
assbot: Logged on 16-01-2016 14:16:09; mircea_popescu: it's complicated. for the true believer (not everyone who reads the books gives a shit, you realise, though many do) faith is a major factor, as measured in two things : uniques (on the theory that hey, god wouldn't allow the flock to scatter) and miracles (on the theory that nature is a whore, and whoever she picks is king).
mircea_popescu: i would guess stables and all that takes just about as much space as parking does.
noobsRus: a nobody with meager holdings who understands (i think) the gravity of the situation. i would very much like for bitcoin to remain as is (decentralized, incorruptible) and the recently amplified USG-SV social engineering has been somewhat disconcerting
mircea_popescu: show to be rebranded as "OhMySides", to move on F! tv ?
mircea_popescu: but hey, for a generation of worthless retards that's in love with a woman they've never met and will live or die depending on whether santa/thegovernment/isis paradrops them food & other supplies as needed... it makes perfect sense.
copypaste: i can't recall if i've ever experienced that with the node i run, but i don't think i have as i run it on a quite unstable network
copypaste: thestringpuller: yeah that does seem odd to me, likely a bug. if it was running as a daemon, it shouldn't exit due to an unstable network, at least one would assume
copypaste: so long as you have a permit
mircea_popescu: well, maybe not that. but the problem is purely economic : a quarter exahash is expensive as all fuck
mircea_popescu: (starts off as cleric, healing everyone, progresses to girl under the table, sucking off everyone)
mircea_popescu: recall that thread about how language is the explanation of the extremely slutty behaviour of humans as opposed to all other mammals ?
mircea_popescu: The series was created as a spin-off of Cheers << ahahahaha omfg.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=16-01-2016#1371985 << the other consideration is that europe is chock full of bad copies of the classical masters. and they all suck, except the few that don't. such as for instance rubens, who learned to paint by doing a poor job of copying at first. or michelangelo, or anyone else. because yes, everyone that ever was a master painter learned his craft by trying humbly to copy and f ☝︎☟︎

thestringpuller: "calling your bluff" as if it could be called that tho.
mircea_popescu: (the irish weren't exactly regarded as clever or scholarly in english at the time ; the english in turn didn't make much court at rome)
thestringpuller: someone just compared Hearnia to Batman/Bruce Wayne. As a batman true believer, I was hihgly insulted.
kingking190: she still looks the same as she did when i first met her ^_^
cazalla: soz, i am only playing :) god knows my missus does not look near as good as she did when we first mete
cazalla: kingking190, she's a cam whore masquerading as a gamer girl, problem is, porn is easily accessible, so i don't really need to see all these cam whores on sites like twitch.tv
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: This came around the time Eve online was on its decline as a #b-a fad
BingoBoingo: Also discoveries made. Like coffee does a much better job promoting wakefulness when it isn't just used as a delivery vehicle for Irish cream.
assbot: 10 Hours of Walking in NYC as a Woman in Hijab - YouTube ... ( http://bit.ly/1Q4EK5A )
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=15-01-2016#1371581 << growing up, mine as well. they're actually native to these parts, if rare. their 'snowshoe' paws always fascinated me. ☝︎

pete_dushenski: bout the same as windows, really
kingking190: hmmm says as a windows user i can't get wot ? >_>

mircea_popescu: mno, i will simply be staying with bitcoin. as aformentioned, good riddance.
thestringpuller: BingoBoingo: KNC miner also committed as well. ☟︎
PeterL: does v have to be in the same directory as the buildscript?
BingoBoingo: Thanks to V there's no serious need to tag anything beyond the BDB fix in a release, but... Gotta tag something useful as the recommended
mod6: my apologies. what exists on the website is meant to help someone build v0.5.3.1 -- the rest of this stuff is basically as-of-yet-unreleased.
mircea_popescu: (is it a ridiculous mishap such as results sometimes from manual archive manipulation where you have openssl-1.0.1g/openssl-1.0.1g/blabla ?)
mircea_popescu: and since it's looking for openssl/buffer.h as opposed to openssl-1.0.1g/buffer.h i'd guess it's lost
mircea_popescu: ahahaah there;'s such a thinkg as hicksville, ny.
ascii_butugychag: same thing as with job candidates having much better looking biographies in their cv ?
thestringpuller: ben_vulpes: i got an entire night of sleep last night << as chetty told me: http://bash.bitcoin-assets.com/?quote=401
ascii_butugychag: but as of the 2004 election, there is NOT A PERMA-RECORD of particular votes
ascii_butugychag: and for a great many purposes, spambots are at least as good as 'people'
mircea_popescu: that's more than wikipedia spammers such as yourself accomplish!
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller it could just as well be dude watching an insect burner thing going "i guess eventuallt it'll fill up"
mircea_popescu: ascii_butugychag> a proper thing simply does not fit on this here desk. <<as the world famous afanti once said, "don't laugh at chinese nopee girls lest you come to ride on their desks one day"
ascii_butugychag: but not as painful as the idiot crapple kbd
ben_vulpes: *and* the child may be getting it as well.
ascii_butugychag: ence describes rent-seekers as well as hobos
assbot: Logged on 15-01-2016 06:43:30; pete_dushenski: trains also don't accelerate and decelerate as quickly or as frequently
pete_dushenski: as part of a 300k car
mircea_popescu: as if.
ascii_butugychag: which is interesting, because - before there even was 'ebay' - as a kid, i would buy/sell exotic hardware via usenet
ascii_butugychag: lulzily, unrelatedly, i warmed up engine at the crack of dawn, to head to the trains, and turned on radio, '...france demands regulation of terrorist finances, such as the use of virtual currencies, such as bitcoins...'
assbot: Logged on 15-01-2016 11:40:24; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=15-01-2016#1370800 << this is actually not a bad application of the dicelist. course the rent seeking behaviour entwined in it all is as disgusting as it gets.
ascii_butugychag: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=15-01-2016#1371097 << hitler's yacht was a diesel-electric thing and was taken as a spoil; after the war, it powered a good chunk of odessa, for a while, iirc ☝︎
mircea_popescu: as milk products are virtually unknown in the mud eating empire.
pete_dushenski: "For Haier, the deal means ownership of a century-old appliance business that makes refrigerators, freezers, clothes washers and dryers across brands such as Monogram, Café, Profile and Artistry. The business trails only Whirlpool Corp in the U.S. white goods market and reported revenue of $5.9 billion last year." << mega-non-core.
pete_dushenski: "General Electric Co said it would sell its appliance business to China's Haier Group for $5.4 billion in cash, another step in its push to sell its non-core assets and project itself as a technology company." << here's where the chinese money is going.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski eh, teh usg herps will try and as per usual fail to enact their mattering in the history of the world as recorded by its current sovereign, bitcoin.
assbot: Logged on 15-01-2016 07:17:12; ben_vulpes: anyways, it's not amazon, it's amazon cn, and they're not buying boats, they're operating as a freight forwarder.
punkman: course the rent seeking behaviour entwined in it all is as disgusting as it gets. << their android sdk has all the data/code needed to run your own actually
mircea_popescu: think dns, if getting other websites i like would be as easy as adding 1 to "trilema.com"...
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=15-01-2016#1370800 << this is actually not a bad application of the dicelist. course the rent seeking behaviour entwined in it all is as disgusting as it gets. ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: hehe check that out, dub got repelled by the antiuniversalist nature of the new democracy. turns out he was right : the citostatic has prevented tumours (doublespoken as "the channel") from growing. it has however not prevented the list of our accomplishments from growing, which was exactly the fucking point. we don't want more people, and we sure as fuck don't want "all the people". we just want a larger share of ever
assbot: Logged on 15-01-2016 04:42:22; adlai: seeing as AdrianG did not !register in-channel, we now notice that post-gribble asswot has no way of publicly conjuring public-keyring contents
assbot: Logged on 15-01-2016 03:20:29; asciilifeform: i suppose height of my career was as a penniless student: 1 key
mircea_popescu: as a sign of bitcoin's progress in the intervening coupla years, the amir taaki v2.0 can marginally spell, and in a very flat, vulgar manner express himself in writing.
jurov: ben_vulpes yay. it does not account for encoding, as seen in view-source:http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/f3e6ddef-9c00-43d9-ab4f-3d02d64409f4/?raw=true
ben_vulpes: anyways, it's not amazon, it's amazon cn, and they're not buying boats, they're operating as a freight forwarder. ☟︎
ben_vulpes: i can see them snapping up a mess of freighters at rock bottom prices as the bdi keeps collapsing
adlai would kill [his reputation] for a livable career as a bike messenger
pete_dushenski: http://www.automotiveaddicts.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/2011-chevrolet-tahoe-hybrid-side.jpg << tahoe hybrid, same '2-mode' powertrain as silverado pick-up, same retarded-on-a-stick aero kit
ben_vulpes: goodness no, they're designed by smart people to...work efficiently as capital equipment.
pete_dushenski: as road vehicles
pete_dushenski: trains also don't accelerate and decelerate as quickly or as frequently ☟︎
ben_vulpes: hey, nobody's going to know what you're talking about unless you go so far as to talk about it
adlai: drops are best described not as a coordinate, but using natural language... helps make the system more expensive to game
adlai is a lotus eater and humbles himself before higher powers such as the legends of bias, zeno, jmc, and satoshi
punindented: well, you have a recursive algo as well then, but the epicenter varies right?
punindented: well, you can build a hash using that algo and then represent it as you like
ben_vulpes: dunno that im into geocoding at all nearly so much as legibility
assbot: CryptoGraffiti - Bitcoin blockchain messages as text ... ( http://bit.ly/1UTqWft )
trinque: adlai: on my list is having the... urinal as you call it... announce its hunger
trinque: I mean that as broadly as possible.
adlai: seeing as AdrianG did not !register in-channel, we now notice that post-gribble asswot has no way of publicly conjuring public-keyring contents ☟︎
adlai: legal in israel, pays in "economic numbers" relative to the salesmen's previous jobs (hocking 'dead sea salt' in your local consumeristemple), rapidly replacing manufacture of arms both small and precise as the nation's primary income stream
adlai: more as a 'lisp for its target audience' than anything else, tbh
asciilifeform: i suppose height of my career was as a penniless student: 1 key ☟︎
adlai: magic flutes playing funeral marches rival buggywhips as chicken repellent
BingoBoingo prefer the whip for historical lulz. If going down to an angry urban mob might as well tack on the irony of defending self with Antebellum era agricultural tool.
adlai wonders whether a sign of 'Bitcoin Mecca' will be legislating that taxable income must be delivered in local fiat, without actually making non-fiat payment illegal as incentive, enticement, teasing, etc
adlai: "can read source and figure out wtf it does and why" is almost as sybil-resistent as PoW
mircea_popescu: for there is no such thing as defeat, as alf correctly observes. but there is such thing as victory.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: i don't recall any other scammer being as vocal after they failed.
