shinohai: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=28-12-2015#1355349 <<< This is what *should* be at top of page, instead of all the other "censorship!" nonsense. ☝︎
assbot: Kazonomics - Poses as a rich and successful Bitcoin-Guru but is in fact a dirt poor & notorious criminal who just can´t stay away from trouble. - Welcome to Fyrstikken ... ( http://bit.ly/1me9MON )
junseth: All right, I'll be back in a few months to make sure that ya'll are still the weirdest enclave in the space. Just doing the prison rounds, wanted to take a count of the inmates. Time to pretend like real life is real life.
junseth: I don't care. For those of us who are long termers, a cheap Bitcoin is a good bitcoin
BingoBoingo: But you definitely can see the positive effect all this drama is having on price, right?
junseth: and I'll be squealing like one of Bitcoin's many beautiful transgendered women. :)
junseth: Sounds good to me. Just push Maxwell to bring us fungibility by next Christmas
BingoBoingo: Seriously. But on the other hand can't let blockstream get an ego and think they can Gavin themselves.
junseth: This is good I'm kin dof fed up with the people who didn't care about block size 5 months ago, and then Gavin told them to care, and now they care. ☟︎
junseth: Haha, nice. Gotta say, the thing i like about bitcoin-assets is that whether or not I agree with ya'll, you keep shit weird.
junseth: At this point, that debate is like trying to tell a Christian evolution is real.
junseth: God the XT-ers
BingoBoingo: Oh, a little bit of everything. Picking fights with XT and blockstream at the same time
junseth: hey everyone. Just popping in to see what the scum of the earth is up to ;P
mircea_popescu: (that very useful piece of furniture for anyone that keeps cocksuckers in the house)
mircea_popescu: for the record, ottoman fashion's pretty cool. they invented a lot of things above and beyond the ottoman
BingoBoingo: All of this water and fucking California can have none of it.
BingoBoingo: "Down river, the Mississippi was forecast to reach or surpass the 1993 record of 49.74 at Chester, Ill., on Friday. That level would impact Menard Correctional Center and comes within inches of the top of the levee protecting St. Genevieve, Mo."
BingoBoingo: "Mississippi river levels at Alton are expected to reach nearly 39 feet by Thursday, only 3.7 feet lower than the 1993 record. In St. Louis, the water is expected to crest just shy of 45 feet, which would rank only behind the 49.6 feet recorded during the flood of ’93."
BingoBoingo: "On Sunday afternoon, as rain continued to pummel much of the St. Louis region, 2015 officially became the wettest year on record. It came amid reports of widespread flooding, a plea by officials in West Alton to evacuate and the closure of Interstate 70 through the heart of St. Charles County. And with rain continuing Monday, river levels throughout the region are expected to hit near-record crests by New Year’s Eve."

punkman: !s tlsnotary
adlai rests his case, and weary brain. maybe tomorrow it'll piss again.
punkman: who's that?
adlai tl;dr's his guerrilla transcription: "would-be entrepeneurs, don't waste your time building companies. fuck shit up and send me the datapix, maybe i'll like them and buy some more"
punkman: then she turns around, "oh we must change the game", "state considered harmful", "do you want my trusted stick?"
punkman: on my Qubes project which turns out to be meaningless." ☟︎
assbot: C3TV -Towards (reasonably) trustworthy x86 laptops ... ( http://bit.ly/1JbPPlE )
punkman: https://media.ccc.de/v/32c3-7352-towards_reasonably_trustworthy_x86_laptops << poor transcript follows: "I used to think we could sandbox ME with VT-d, unfortunately it turned out this doesn't work, which brought me to the sad conclusion that perhaps if we look at the Intel x86 platform, the war is lost. It truly is hopeless, even if ME didn't exist. It bothers me since I spent the last 5 years
adlai: he does fall for the fallacy of ascribing relevance to bubble inflation velocity in a post-fiat-escape-hatch market

adlai: ah mats, welcome back to assland
BingoBoingo: Ah adlai's on it, but I'll get you the preview too
BingoBoingo: So who's online that might be up for spotting me a proofreading?
adlai: at least the leddit captions that with a real cobra
adlai: who are these people even smoking? did they sip the brown acid?
adlai: only on /r/btc: "Cobra edits Bitcoin.org about page to remove Sirius from owner's list"
adlai: "you are doing that too much. try again in 49 seconds." jesus christ marie it's a fucking IP address
adlai realizes maybe if he wants people to listen to him, he should speak meat or blockchain at them rather than #b-a :(
adlai: for such a long lurker he does do a terrible job at it. wake up, sam! your elbow should be blue and purple by now, neh?
adlai: at least STRML's casino doesn't touch the stuff, not even give it out for free if you keep hitting
adlai figures he's got to skin the fiat cat someday

adlai: even the airgapped deserve some practice driving the cryptotron
adlai: can't you let the man !up himself? some cultures consider it rude to help
adlai: "private blockchains are as mortal as CEOs" (also rough translaying)
adlai: "i love regulation, because it causes fat, and then you slim it off and make bank" (rough translation parahrpase)
adlai: "they say a lot of things about whoring being the oldest profession, but somebody had to pay, so Finance was First." - eden shochat, local vc chump pumper. has a good talk i'd link but nobody else medaber ivrit...
fluffypony: right after I file to be recognised as a "thought leader"
fluffypony: omg I'm going to apply for that
adlai: i'm sorry but this is totally on-topic. /r/btc has "bitcoin startup entrepeneur" flair
adlai: also who on earth beatifies their comment troll alts
adlai: "> If the lightning network ends up sucking (let???s hope it doesn???t), then so will bitcoin as we will have no choice but to use it by that point. // Or finally raise the blocksize" who'da guessed, comments better than the article itself
adlai: too bad you can't short vaporware that hasn't even boiled yet
adlai: from the not-so-lulz mines: https://chrispacia.wordpress.com/2015/12/23/lightning-network-skepticism/
assbot: Logged on 28-12-2015 06:59:44; mircea_popescu: if they're worth a shit they'll find and if not, a well. most stuff developing in an uterus is meant to abort sooner or later anyway.
BingoBoingo: You're right. Gotta leave the scabs alone so they can keep undercutting lazy union parasites on the labor market.
BingoBoingo has already lost a substantial amount of liver weight since the sobriety experiment began as measured by poking the upper right quadrant of my abdomen and contemplating the size of the organ I just pissed off.
BingoBoingo: Well, how else to you handle alcoholic fatty liver than by... chasing the fat out of the liver?
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: Well, I'm still cutting to the point where I can start getting swole without also getting fat at the same time.
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: you are going to get too swole
BingoBoingo: <ben_vulpes> but on the other thread, from what pool are 'they' to 'pick their own'? must i not provide? << The pool that knows wheeties actually isn't the breakfast of champion, because that is two scoops of whey and a scoop of dry instant coffee in an shaker.
mircea_popescu: if they're worth a shit they'll find and if not, a well. most stuff developing in an uterus is meant to abort sooner or later anyway. ☟︎
ben_vulpes: but on the other thread, from what pool are 'they' to 'pick their own'? must i not provide?
mircea_popescu: ie, all the factual bits DID fall into place.
mircea_popescu: ironically... it did bring them the coveted fucking star trek touch panels
mircea_popescu: well... they figured that's it.
mircea_popescu: nah, it's not even that. it's ... you know how the sort of fucktard that writes sf and like... lives off juices and shit [we're talking 70s here] always represents "the future" with these robed floating aliens of "twu ewolwed" ?
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: old enough to pick, old enough also to have the wot to select from?
ben_vulpes: well i did think about it for a few weeks before bringing it up. 'was cool' is a simplification of the whole 'semantic web' trip.
mircea_popescu: amusingly enough, the facts fell in, but their interpretation of "what it'll be like"... heh heh
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes that's actually pretty accurate. except smart ppl did not think it was cool. "smart" people had visions of a wikipedia-bayesian world.
mircea_popescu: here's the thing : not your call to make. by the time they need or can benefit from that sort of thing, they're old enough to pick their own/
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: narrative scrolling through my head is "tbl made htmlz, smart ppl thot waz cool, rest of internet piled on, shartups demanded cc processing over webz, tls/ssl became defacto"
mircea_popescu: oh i thought you were contemplating a mistress.
ben_vulpes: but never fucking ever will i readily consent to stick my offspring in a daycare for an amount of attention outside of my control to be paid to them.
ben_vulpes: perhaps a slice here or there, like latin or ballroom dancing
ben_vulpes: i have yet to meet a teacher i'd entrust the whole of any educational program to outside my wot
mircea_popescu: <ben_vulpes> does anyone know of any decent sociopolitical histories of tls/ssl? << "no" or "only shitty ones" depending on your clearance.
mats: ben_vulpes: yes, i took btc side
mircea_popescu: adlai> satoshi says, "the world is malleable and so is bitcoin!" sipa says "maybe not", so we shoot him before he starts giving any really dangerous ideas << you really should lay off the sauce.
fluffypony: if it's not Monte-sorry it's not worth talking about
trinque: only memory of it was some kid putting hair clips all along his tongue
trinque went to the overly expensive preschool in question
BingoBoingo: You make up for that though by being a jew who knows better than to blow all of the money on the smaller person's preschool.
