ascii_field: aha, let's Run Moar Ecc! in real
time! with average pc rng !
ascii_field: aaaaand we get
to
the point where
they advocate
the use of ecc
ascii_field: ‘releasing node’. S generates a pair of public keys
to encrypt
the return data
then inserts
the public key into
the routing information for each node...' <<
tor, snore.
ascii_field: ' S obtains a list of online
TRR nodes and
their public keys
then selects
three
to five nodes randomly
to form a routing. We call
the first node of
the routing
the ‘starting node’ and
the last node

ascii_field: what, i can't walk over and drop in a base64
turd ?
mircea_popescu: i dunno
they keep derping about how
they support ecc and how great it is and how blabla. protonmail.
ascii_field: 'Bitcoin did not respond
to a request for comment about
TRR.' << he died, motherfuckerz ! have el minimo respeto por los derpadores !!11
ascii_field: i don't actually know anyone, afaik, who could not - if with some effort - fit
through
that
mircea_popescu: i really like my idea of
the foot-apart steel pillar pen.
assbot: Logged on 22-09-2015 14:45:17; mircea_popescu: for
the first
time ever, cured meats with a word from
the meat itself. none of
this dancing pigs and overjoyous cows publicity materials. actual fucking dedicatory letters. and poems read by
the singer-songwriter and activist in question.
shinohai: umm .... ok because
the gold standard worked out so well before.
mircea_popescu: "Likewise, barter is a very awkward way of doing business, especially when
the other party
to a deal is across
the world.
That’s why gold has acted as
the medium of exchange for 5000 years or so and why gold or a gold-backed paper certificate will eventually replace all
the fiat money
that exists
today."
mircea_popescu: and for
that, you gotta pretend you're part of something worth something. cant just go out in
the field.
they've not yet invented
the saprophytical parasite.
mircea_popescu: the entire fucking plan is
to spend other people's money.
mircea_popescu: just like
the libertard just went and made his country in africa and lived
there happily ever after.
mircea_popescu: yeah, right. in other news, "Those who are interested in
Trump are voting for a stop
to
the illegal immigration and
the flooding of America with future Democrats who will have no jobs and live off food stamps, but are convinced
the Democrats will keep
their new way of life alive."
shinohai: Just make an altcoin and leave bitcoin
to do what it does.
mircea_popescu: the "future of bitcoin" will be bitcoin, and it will be pointedly NOT "as anonymous and private" as a made-for-usg fake anon/privacy hangout. at
the very least for as long as i'm around.
mircea_popescu: and speaking of very bad
things, anyone seen
that
thing ? it's... hm. i humbly suggest it
to
the feminist hating crowd!
mircea_popescu: (incidentally, anyone remember barefoot in
the park ? with a
thoroughly indigestible barbarella, she could have been diaz in very bad
things)
mike_c: My issue with a lot of older movies like
that is
the love interest plotline would have been better left on
the cutting room floor
mircea_popescu: redford is mostly
that policeman
tv series
to me. but newman made excellent films.
shinohai eagerly awaits
The Hateful Eight.
mike_c: It's newman and redford - Nobody (should) be
taking it
too seriously.
mircea_popescu: i always
thought
the spaghetti westerns were parodic, which makes
them more palatable.
tho i can't say i ever liked one.
mircea_popescu: so
this is basically
the porn argument ? "i dunno man, i just like how
those
two
tits match visually ? it's an aesthetic
thing." ?
mike_c: I like it like
the spaghetti westerns. Just good popcorn movies.
mircea_popescu: at
the very least
the question as
to WHY
the phenomena observable
take place is left entirely
to
the viewer.
to my mind
this disqualifies it.
mike_c: I don't
think it's amazing as a film, but I've seen it a few
times.
mircea_popescu: "here's an oreo wrapper with
two mugs on it, bring your own film."
mike_c: newman and redford are good
together
mircea_popescu: i dunno why people are so gaga over it (in
the us only - nobody cares afaik outside of
the pesthole)
mircea_popescu: also, am i
the only one
that
thinks
the butch cassidy&sundance kid film utterly sucked ?
mircea_popescu: hi guise i am running linux and i
thought i'd integrate
the kernel.
assbot: Hannott comments on Im building a dice game and want
to integrate bitcoin like Satoshi Dice and Bitpotato... ... (

Transactions In Combination With On-Block Chain
Transactions.”
mircea_popescu: language is still
the cheapest "mind amplifier"
the world knows,
to borrow an alfism.
mircea_popescu: funkenstein_ you will notice (im not even sure if
that was attempted sarcasm or not
tbf)
that
the imperative
to learn variety speak is not so i can understand
the othjer, but so
that
the other can begin
to
think.
mircea_popescu: but, induction.
that age old method
to derive value from worthless ingredients.
BingoBoingo: Eh, kunstler is old enough father
time will probably get him before you do mircea_popescu
mircea_popescu: the sane "this is alien
therefore must investigate" is rare enough
to be usable as a selection heuristic.
mircea_popescu: just in
that [unthinkable!!!1] case where someone might want
to. why would
they!!! inconceivabru!!1
mircea_popescu: but somehow still knows it enough
to go about making laws about how BAD killing is. you know... in general.
mircea_popescu: somehow emitter is completely unable
to notice
that means IT WILL KILL YOU
then.
mircea_popescu: funkenstein_ for instance. but it's deeper
than
that, it's a strange
thing. sort-of like "this is alien and so before anything it must prove its value
to me in my own
terms".
mike_c: ah, congrats
to him. he's
two orders of magnitude smarter
than an architect :)
BingoBoingo: mike_c: Brother's doing mech, graduated
this spring, decided
to stay
there a while longer
funkenstein_: nah, variety speak is pretty open
terminology compared
to above failure mode
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> if it were not for 'autocad' none of
the output ~would~ stand up, either. << When my youngest brother went on campus visits
to engineering programs
the Engineering College Dean joked
that
the architecture school was full of
the Civil engineering program's failures
mircea_popescu: and it has one meal. "i dunno about
that and i'm important so... how about
that happens in
terms im familiar with ?"
funkenstein_: "That site is welcome
to republish my Monday blog. Other sites do. Be my guest."
mircea_popescu: punkman besides,
think about all
the valuable prion research
this would usher in. GOOD FOR SCIENCE.
mircea_popescu: the only
thing good about
that america was
that it kept
to its stupid self and i never ran into it.
mircea_popescu: "You are SO on
the mark my friend. Nothing has improved unless you are a wall street banker public employee or large corporation. All of
the above we can do without.
There was and is nothing better
than
that small
town america pre I phone and internet."
funkenstein_: i can't imagine you'd find buyers in
the end but
throw it up on kickstarter anyway?
punkman: eww, who'd want
to eat american hamplanet
mircea_popescu: for
the first
time ever, cured meats with a word from
the meat itself. none of
this dancing pigs and overjoyous cows publicity materials. actual fucking dedicatory letters. and poems read by
the singer-songwriter and activist in question.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: "sir... would you not like...
to eat salami... of a sensitive artist...like me ????"
mircea_popescu: could probably cut a deal with
the cities so
that
they install solid bars spaced one foot apart somewhere downtown, circumscribing a sort of pen,
then
the police just dumps whoever in
there. if
they manage
to go
through
the bars, or whatever, if someone lifts
them up fine.
mircea_popescu: at 500 lbs average and with a 30% survival rate
the numbers show a 300% gross margin available
mircea_popescu: i foresee a great industry of buying american
third gendered persons by
the pound,
mircea_popescu: "Meanwhile, what remains on
the other head of
this
two-headed economy besides driving
to-and-from
the Walmart? Pornography?
The
tattoo industry? Meth and narcotics? Prostitution? Professional sports on
the flat screen? Kim and Kanye? Grand
theft auto? Do you really
think Donald
Trump can fix
this?" << prostitution.
mircea_popescu: and
that one
thing is
the idea merchants have about what
those wishes and expectations are.
mircea_popescu: there's only one
thing
that reliably exceeds in shocking ridiculousness
the actual wishes and expectations of people
mircea_popescu: "siri bitch, got any homeho's
to get
this party started???"
davout: it gets old quickly,
tried
to order prostitutes, did not work, useless
