mod6: any way the real sig name is currently "bitcoin-asciilifeform.1.vpatch.mod6.sig" not
<+jurov> only the question what is the '1' in bitcoin-asciilifeform.1.mod6.vpatch.sig doing there
jurov: no it maps to patchname.vpatch.

mod6: so i was wrong above, not just .sig, but

<wot_id>.sig
mod6:
<+jurov> oh when i see it: trinque and everyone, pls send detached signatures as
<name>.sig

<< I imagine ben_vulpes mac has color display greater than 9"
BingoBoingo:
<mircea_popescu> and what is this "continue reading" thing ?
<< It's always been a thing. Keeps front page from reaching maxint length. Use started in early qntra when routinely dumping 10+ kiloword silk road document text into articles

<mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo "Bitstamp has emailed users stating it has banned access from all IP addresses originating from the Russian Federation access to the Bitcoin exchange."

<+mod6> asciilifeform: hey, for a long time now I've been searching for the fix you provided to vdiff for debian/ubuntu; for some reason it barfs saying that there is an unmatched quote or something.
mod6:
<+asciilifeform> ben_vulpes: if you try hard, and violate instructions sufficiently liberally, you can probably rm -rf your ENTIRE HOUSE
<< yes someone did do this.

☟︎ BingoBoingo: "In initial implementations, old nodes which are not yet aware of NODE_BLOOM and use a protocol version
< 70011 may still send filter messages to a node without NODE_BLOOM. This feature may be removed after there are sufficient NODE_BLOOM nodes available and SPV clients have upgraded, allowing node operators to fully close the bloom-related DoS vectors."
mod6:
<+jurov> mod6 why gdb? systemwide gdb works fine
<< my gentoo didn't have gdb built via portage, so when I went to build that, it blew up (re: yesterday).

<< oh, lafond himself gets the thing pretty close. it is a class thing. the problem is the speaker, who, like a bunch of his brethren, ended up in this weirdo alt-reality where THEY are the upper class.

☝︎ mircea_popescu: ascii_shmoocon> say mp or other decides to nuke. makes own alt? opens fiat exchanges???
<< "we da people"
thestringpuller: "An interesting non-technical objection is that because nodes and miners who haven’t adopted the soft fork end up in the main chain anyway, this is a case of a majority undemocratically forcing a minority to adopt new policies. Of course, it’s your choice to use a protocol with this feature! Satoshi could have just as easily written Bitcoin to treat unknown block versions as invalid, but choose not too."
<< Uh huh.
BingoBoingo:
<ben_vulpes> where'd it cut off?

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=17-11-2015#1325573 << Employer matches 401k up to ~6% of annual income pre-tax. The 401k program allows you to tke a 401k loan and pay yourself back. Best case scenario you pay the fiat back over X period (as long as you don't leave the job), or somehow there is some huge collapse and you just never pay it back.

YOU DON'T NEED INTERSTATES. wanna travel farther ? fly. or move.
