mircea_popescu: multiply by difficulty as an easy proxy.
mircea_popescu: that asymptote is sharply below anything that'd count as "significant coin"
mircea_popescu: well... maybe not on his crap software, but as a matter of principle.

pete_dushenski: "The hedgehog’s plight is only going to get worse. As social memories of persecution fade, badgers are moving into suburbs, the last refuges of hedgehogs. Providing hedgehogs with ideal homes in our gardens, and love tunnels under garden fences, may slow their decline, but it won’t stop them going extinct from much of the country altogether. Unless we are prepared to unleash brown bears, lynx and wolves into
pete_dushenski: "That such petitions might not matter in the long run is irrelevant: what matters is that they are being signed by the people, giving a populist feel to the overall effort. Old-school lobbyists, generously funded by venture capitalists, will do the rest." << gotta love watching the guardian squirm as is tries to tip-toe around the truth that neither "the people" nor "the money" give two shits about their transge
mircea_popescu: dude these nordic system nitwits are about as obnoxious as jehova's witnesses with their relentless, stolid propaganda.

mircea_popescu: might as well be 7 metric fucktons. who gives a shit about fucking norilsk ? it's not worth the snow it's splattered on.
mircea_popescu: <pete_dushenski> seriously, what leader of the free world ? he isn't the leader of his own backyard. <<< generally that's how this "civilisation" business works. you may have the fetish of power if and only if you abandon all power. serve the system as it were.
pete_dushenski: much credit is due to the whole trb team for developing the package as we enjoy it today
pete_dushenski: gations totalled $11.4 billion, about the same as the cost of community and social services."
mircea_popescu: dumb as rocks just got a whole new meaning.
mircea_popescu: inverse measure of bitcoin mainstream penetration : about 0.3% of females and as high as .7% of males ask me if i'm the mpex mp. (the female sample is ~2k ; the male ~3k - not my fault, just males are about 100x more responsive to a profile visit than females for some reason. then again... about half of them are so fucking threatened by homosexuality they feel compelled to either point out to me that they're not gay, "
thestringpuller: but i guess beign slathered in mud would be just as good.
ben_vulpes is cobbling together some grep and sed as we speak to ease the pain of handling fiatland contracts
ascii_rear: taking your old output and presenting it to anybody he can get to, as your latest
mircea_popescu: time is irrelevant here and can be deemed as part of the explicitation of "X"
mircea_popescu: in this situation as described, A can make a determination ~without~ A having to be human. it's what you'd call a "strict" determination.
mircea_popescu: as they're not going to import it and well... aha.
shinohai: Has a smattering of btctalk posts as well, with feminist tones
shinohai likes trolling dommes as well.

ascii_rear: as in, with awareness of what all of the pgpdump fields are, yes
phf: i understand all that, and i was explaining that there's no conceptual integrity to it, as it stands. we have a .wot folder which is supposed to be a manually curated folder of <nick>.asc files. there were a few threads where mp and ascii argued that the folder should not be generated automatically (no sks or pre packaged tar files). so if one wants to build a rotor they need a .wot folder with pubkeys of all the foundation

thestringpuller: just trying to see if i get same error as on roberto
phf: thestringpuller: v and gpg --verify use different mechanisms for key management. pgp uses keyrings, v hides keyrings by using .wot folder to store pubkeys as asc files. so when a key expires, your best option really is to fetch a key somehow (???), import it into gpg's keyring so that --verify works AND save it into .wot
mircea_popescu: lobbes you have to appreciate that marx is a minor thinker. it's not that people've not read it. it's that his output is about as intellectually important as any other diet guru / expert in expertises.

mircea_popescu: yeah, i've been kinda suspecting the root of the whole mess is that old women actually dare sit by themselves in sidewalk cafes as if they're people or something.
ben_vulpes: this strikes me as a not-half-bad strategy: live in poverty for 9 mos, travel (also in poverty, but looking sooper cool) around fucking the young hotties for 1.5, come home and live on someone's couch looking for the next cafe that needs a warm body.
lobito: young argentines such as messi :P
mircea_popescu: a club is a space dedicated to sluts being as close as naked as possible and to keeping young cocks of the type that work in co-ops mostly out. it should be no less than 1k sq meters floor surface with no less than two levels.

pete_dushenski: "From 2006 to 2008, Duran took out 68 commercial and personal loans from a total of 39 banks with no guarantees or property as collateral. He had no intention of repaying the debts, and used the money to finance various anti-capitalist movements" << why more people don't do this ~exact same thing~ to buy bitcoin is a wonder

shinohai: oh wait, that makes sense. but jeez, thats almost as bad as the girls that fought over fried chicken.
pete_dushenski: re: vaccinations as a barrier to entry for government subsidies for children, it seems to me that parents who choose not to vaccinate their children should be on the hook for any adverse eventualities of that decision, but really only as it pertains to that aspect of their child's health, being the working point for that decision. no polio vaccine for jimmy ? then jimmy gets polio ? then pay up for treatment, no free
pete_dushenski: not ~quite~ as bad as http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-01-2016#1358311 at any rate ☝︎
pete_dushenski reads, finds that blood draws aren't for ~all~ people passing through checkpoints, as he first suspected
mircea_popescu: how the fuck you can shitify somethign as shitty as anything lucas ever made is beyond me, but hey. jackal eats jackal and disney's the top jackal it seems
mircea_popescu: yes, yes, you're right. but insofar as the fate of people living in the odoacer era is concerned... junkyard wars.

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-12-2015#1357890 << exactly how "banning" works here. there isn't a "moderator" idiot as a proxy for usg to "make hard decisions" for "the good of the flock". whenever things come to a head, moderation is done by the offender's own friends, and at their own expense. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: "Antifa at CCC took the chance to protest emerson's talk as racist. I might be a white nationalist and have been so in public since 2008, but if I were to give a talk at CCC I don't see how I could even make it racist. These are technical talks about real world software deployments. The talk itself was about emerson's travels to Sierra Leone at great personal risk to help use open source software to assist with the eradication of

BingoBoingo: When pulled from niggers.txt on its own, the script is commonly refered to as hebes.sh
BingoBoingo: Sure, that's Trilema Epoch. Then there's Bitcoin time measured purely by blockheight. UTC is #b-a time as easy compromise to avoid cognitive overload.
adlai: nobody can deny it's been published, as long as you know what "it" was
mats: chromium loads as html5 vidya

ben_vulpes: may as well just gpg-gram it to everyone in l2, who knows if someone else might get to code review before me
pete_dushenski: mod6: my pleasure. thank you as well :)
adlai: the planet as a whole is positive sum, except for brief instances that give enough of an artistic experience that they're worth more than the sunlight they obscure
adlai: perhaps "depression" or "vexual" are not as monochrome as prices on a ticker.
mircea_popescu: you happen to be the sort of misfortunate fucktard that grew up among idiots rather than parents, and as a result are way too fixated on experimentally verifying this hierarchy thing and way too fascinated by the female "oh may gawd what if i sell myself short".
adlai: think of a public btc stegotron as a probe for "safe space"
adlai: ascii_rear: oh wait. remember "reveal themselves as tyrants"? that is the value of a ~public~ btc stegotron, esp. one which flows through 'media'
adlai: what do i look like, a bunch of text? i have eyes as well.
adlai: hm. maybe i do? yeah... i was misinterpreting it as a weapon which reveals its usage. headful of canaries...
ascii_rear: afaik most folks encipher ssh key (for just the same reason as btc hotwallet)
ascii_rear: as in, where you pass terminal input to a process on a remote box
mod6: pete_dushenski: root@enchante:/home/tevye# ./build-bitcoind-151224.sh << if you made /home/tevye/.wot -- run this as 'tevye', not root.

thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: i was thinking the other day. bitcoin just has scammers. just as the world is filled with worms. pirateat40 was very low IQ scammer. then mt. gox tried to hide a little better not by alot.
assbot: Logged on 22-12-2015 04:58:44; mircea_popescu: anyway, for pete_d and anyone else who might have encountered difficulty with trb or fears they might : it's actually rather painless. 1. you create an account on a server ; 2. you cd /home/account_name ; 3. you create a .wot directory (mkdir .wot) ; 4. you put the pubkeys of people you trust in there as name1.asc, name2.asc etc ; 5. you download the rotor script (curl deedbot.org/build-bitcoind-9999
thestringpuller: adlai: slowly but surely. the theme is mainly done but have to do more wordpress-y things which i do enough of at work as is...
adlai: ie, it has zero value as a backup blockchain, because it's all the same code, only with fewer fixes and more "it wasn't broken, why did you fix it?"

adlai hasn't given you btc yet... gotta make sure the taker takes as well
thestringpuller: this slow as a mollassus
adlai redefines "lobbyist" as "collector of sales tax on tickets to the democracy theatre"
mircea_popescu: i guess technically speaking there is no such thing as "downward volatility".
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-12-2015#1356966 << alf has a theory that all these low effort "law breaking" things exist as usg-run operations to find and document wreckers. ☝︎

BingoBoingo: "I'm a bad person, but I've never bullied anyone to suicide for using the N-word. This is the first real-life lynching by the progressive liberal movement, and you might as well own it."

BingoBoingo: It could be. Mebbe he had an uneventful arrest after a holiday party and Poettering killed him and framed it as suicide using Murdock's phone.
BingoBoingo: Indeterminate. Could have died from head trauma during beating. Also police officers could have come out for round 3 as he was drafting the blog post.
