mircea_popescu: heh... i wonder if
the person could be persuaded
to do a "fatties and bitcoin" corner ?
mircea_popescu: "First of
tall it doesn’t
talk
that much money launch a website, Notyourgoodfatty.com was launched in a day for less
than what Marilyn Wann probably pays for a single meal. Since July I’ve posted nearly 30 articles but a “pro activist” can’t manage
to launch a simple website?"
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu was right.
this hard-fork
thing forced hearn out of bitcoin
nubbins`: by
this metric, a sketchbook and pencil is more powerful
than any computer
mircea_popescu: Not only is Ubuntu a great operating system, it's also very flexible and powerful enough
to allow you
to get up and running in no
time! Note: Please restart your computer after every step.
This will ensure everything is working correctly."
kakobrekla: brass,
the year dunno. somewhere at
the beginning of minting
kakobrekla: lets put it out
there; will sell kako-owned 1 cas buttcoin for 1.5 buttcoin
nubbins`: just goes
to show most old-timers are lucky goofs
nubbins`: honestly baffled as
to why nobody
thought pedigree was important for something
that's so easy
to counterfeit
kakobrekla: how much is
the premium on kako-owned coins?
nubbins`: more of a passive
thing
these days. i've been
trying
to get a full set of silvers with pgp docs
mircea_popescu: there goes
that
thing. one of
the very few actual businesses btc-comunity stumbled on.
nubbins` told doofuses
to get em while
they could, few listened
nubbins`: so it would appear
that casascius has stopped responding
to requests for PGP chains of custody
nubbins`: i hope
this doesn't mean
their readership is gonna end up here
nubbins`: gross, daily mail did a story on
twodogs.
nubbins`: cut me some slack, i'm essentially a luddite
these days
nubbins`: tbh didn't really realize
this was still a
thing
mircea_popescu: and
this has been laughed at for years here, yourself included, but nevertheless.
mircea_popescu: so you read something in
the newspaper, in a field you understand, it falls apart like shit in
the sun.
mircea_popescu: <nubbins`> i was under
the impression
that kaspersky et al had snagged most of
the decrypt keys? << ha-ha.
punkman: 600eur ransom, apparently knows other people
that got infected and aren't paying either
BingoBoingo: <nubbins`> i was under
the impression
that kaspersky et al had snagged most of
the decrypt keys? << For some pieces of ransomeware.
nubbins`: i was under
the impression
that kaspersky et al had snagged most of
the decrypt keys?
punkman: so doctor in meatwot got hit by ransomware, asked if I want
to
take a look at infected box
BingoBoingo: Cutting edge
tech: "Today,
there is a B-52 pilot whose father and grandfather flew
the plane."
mircea_popescu: but feel free
to package a selection of lulz for qntra.
nubbins`: Bruce also feels like
there maybe some Foundation Bitcoin lost and floating around. Brock says
there are some blockchain analytics companies, it may be worthwhile
to have
them look at
the foundation wallets in case
there is bitcoin missin
nubbins`: <+mircea_popescu> yeah,
they remember being dinosaurs like i remember being lucy,
the fatass african woman. << mp for someone who natively speaks a romance lang, you're not very romantic ;/
gabrielradio: mircea_popescu, radu @ piticigratis.com has a good piece about
that
mircea_popescu: yeah,
they remember being dinosaurs like i remember being lucy,
the fatass african woman.
nubbins`: tbh i
think
they remember being dinosaurs, and
they miss it.
mircea_popescu: maybe it sucks being a bird, with singing
the unfortunate result of doomed attempts
to scratch an overpowering itch one can't really
touch
mircea_popescu: also fortunately insects can't really afford
the chemical costs of
the only luminescence
they got.
mircea_popescu: fortunately
they're not
too big, else you couldn't hear a
thjing on earth.
assbot: Logged on 08-12-2015 16:23:33; asciilifeform: he is 'trying' in
the same way bird 'tries' when sings
mircea_popescu: anyway,
the geniuses have a point : it's either morloch or eloi, and
the latter's
the definition of crime.
punkman: "The way financial institutions file reports of suspicious
transactions is in need of streamlining,
the website Buzzfeed reported." ah check it out, buzzfeed getting
the scoop on
the
telegraph
mircea_popescu: yes,
the behaviour has
that effect. but
the buck stotts because it can, not "so as
to".
mircea_popescu: if you
think
the stotting buck is stotting "to impress
the she-herd" you've spent a little
too much
time i nschool.
mircea_popescu: anyway, greenspun in
this interpretation embodies
the affliction, in how he falsely if conveniently paints a will-to-live in
the
terms of "impressing
the group"
mircea_popescu: which chtonic inclination is both understandable with cultural age and certain
to meet its satisfaction.
mircea_popescu: being white is, by and large, "not wanting
to be alive anymore".
mircea_popescu: how
the fuck did
that work, supposedly kids are much better at playing videogames
than older ppls. cuz of
the reflexes and shit, right ?
mircea_popescu: but yeah, in 1890 white meant "billy, don't
take your guns
to
town".
mircea_popescu: the very notion
that "i dun wanna compete with
the young" is symptomatic. really, you've somehow digested
the situation where you can't compete with
the kids at kids stuff and
this isn't making you wantr
to kill yourself ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform "asciilifeform> btw when i describe 'usg aryan'
the picture meant is precisely
the biography of herr bridges."
assbot: Logged on 08-12-2015 15:44:01; mircea_popescu: it gets dumb white kids
to
throw away
their lives on nonsense (while - and
this is
the amusing part - sniggering at
the black kids who
throw away
their lives ON LESS nonsens-y nonsense.)
assbot: Logged on 08-12-2015 15:43:29; mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah but
the problem is
that
the fiction in question only exists as a sales ploy.
mircea_popescu: and yes, both of
these are absolute bars
to action. any kind of action whatsoever.
mircea_popescu: translates directly
to a) you're not in
the wot and b) you're a redditard.
mircea_popescu: ot
thinking of
the nation? What unity of
thought is possible between us? Unity of
thought presupposes firmness of belief from
two directions. If we accept
that my firmness of belief is proven by my past,
then your firmness of belief perished forever in your activity as a provocateur. You already can never believe yourself. What conspiracy is possible in
the absence of unity of
thought and firmness of belief? Really onl
mircea_popescu: "1) Why did you choose me for communicating your secret? Am I really your unconditional fellow-thinker who can be entrusted with a secret?
To be your fellow-thinker, I should have known all your intimate plans against
the emigration, plans you are professionally obligated
to have. How and by what means will you prove
to me
that you are speaking with me now not as a professional provocateur from
the NKVD, but as a patri
mircea_popescu: anyway,
that ilyia piece is not half bad. (i always liked
the guy, as he passes
the silences
test). let's
take
the first paragraph :
mircea_popescu: by any self-coherent measure you could ever come up with, it's way
the fuck better
to live your life in
the hood
than in
the bridges.
mircea_popescu: it gets dumb white kids
to
throw away
their lives on nonsense (while - and
this is
the amusing part - sniggering at
the black kids who
throw away
their lives ON LESS nonsens-y nonsense.)
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah but
the problem is
that
the fiction in question only exists as a sales ploy.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: "The History and Characteristics of
the Mr. Bridges " ftw.
trinque: the part about him keeping
the money in his fidelity account *so
that he could return it* is pure gold
assbot: Logged on 04-08-2013 17:51:59; mircea_popescu: unfortunately for
the usg, bitcoin is much larger
than
the united states ever could have been
