mircea_popescu: FledNanders will it actually take < 5seconds per page load ?
mircea_popescu: FledNanders why am i paying all these lawyers for then ?
mircea_popescu: so far in spite of what the scammer group claims there's not been any actual pressure from the agencies on this, but should it come to it, making the site .bit is trivial.
mircea_popescu: but on a serious note pigeons, this is very useful info.
mircea_popescu: except i dunno, does the syntax even work in hosts.txt ?
mircea_popescu: pigeons you realise most people on glbbq can't do gpg --clearsign, right ? the fuck they know how to find resolve.conf
mircea_popescu: FledNanders you seriously are making that distinction with glbbq "investors" ?
mircea_popescu: once glbbq comes basck online, you get your coupons, you redeem them etc
mircea_popescu: Doffx so have an in-kind transfer to some broker or w/e
mircea_popescu: if safekeys were the token claims that'd make the content of the safe no less virtual by this working.
mircea_popescu: (the duck also weighs the same as a witch, which is virtual)
mircea_popescu: yes but the relationship between real data and the virtual coins is... virtual.
mircea_popescu: if you can't kill your girlfriend with it, it's virtual. also known as rule of thumb.
mircea_popescu: lol pigeons was mining back when cpu were the rage, too
mircea_popescu: it's how busienss works : back the wrong horse, bleed out of each limb.
mircea_popescu: people that joined in time get an advantage over the ones that shittalked mpex back in the day cause "glbse is so much better"
mircea_popescu: im not gonna be the first taking 15yo's to be thrown off rocks, but i can't deny sparta had a point somewhere in there.
mircea_popescu: see Luceo ? you ask me to go easy on them cause they're young, they sprout dumbass shit cause... heck, why not. they;re young and everyone should go easy on them
mircea_popescu: ErebusBat i think there's some game servers using it already
mircea_popescu: moreover, the system will have to recode itself to fit with bitcoin
mircea_popescu: from the forums : "GLBSE has better assets and is free. I am now even less likely to sign up to you."
mircea_popescu: no, the main safe thing about mpex is that i'm a hardass.
mircea_popescu: the safe side, a dump of all users' final STATs, encrypted with their keys and clearsigned by the exchange will be released before closing, in whatever manner will be deemed at that time efficient, as for instance on a p2p file sharing system.
mircea_popescu: In the unlikely case that the continuation of MPEx becomes impossible, all issuers will be provided with lists of their shareholders. A successor system would have to be constructed (either centralized or maintained independently by the respective issuers), but no information is lost : since people can still sign with their keys, it is trivial for anyone who is in fact a shareholder to identify himself as shareholder. Just to be on
mircea_popescu: 22. Even so, how would the investors be affected in the event MPEx can no longer be continued ?
mircea_popescu: Should the systems be confiscated or otherwise lost the service will failover to different systems, possibly on bulletproof hosting if need be. If sufficient pressure is put on this side MPEx will be recoded as a p2p system.
mircea_popescu: In case the domain is confiscated or otherwise lost MPEx will move to a different domain, in a different jurisdiction. Should the same happen again, MPEx would move to what will at the time be a solid alternative for a free Internet, be it the TOR network, namecoin or some equivalent DNS or any comparable solution. No government will ever be able to stop the Internet, in general. We're prepared to show this in the particular.
mircea_popescu: 21. What happens if your domain(s) or server(s) are confiscated ?
mircea_popescu: DeaDTerra why do you insist in associating with well known scammers ?
mircea_popescu: genjix aren't there some coins you folks stole with bitcoinica taht need to be dispensed ?
