danielpbarron: unless it can roll over without invalidating
things
danielpbarron: and
the unix
timestamp
thing is a good example of when
to hard fork
funkenstein_: so yeah, 20,999,950
theoretically spendable by 2130 or whenever
danielpbarron: right but
they /could/ be spent if not for
the lost data
funkenstein_: nobody suggests
to accept blocks
that spend new coinbases, if
that's your question
danielpbarron: would 0.5.3.1 reject a block as valid
that spent
the block zero coin base? would "XT" do
the opposite?
danielpbarron: they were for keeping
things small before
they were against it, because it was
triggering SPVs
danielpbarron: >> All
three problems are
triggering real user complaints for
the Android "Bitcoin Wallet" app which implements SPV mode. In order
to make chain synchronization fast, cheap and able
to run on older phones with limited memory we want
to have remote peers
throw away irrelevant
transactions before sending
them across
the network.
funkenstein_: BTCBanana: funkenstein, hahah why you invested in a
tech you don't understand go read
the book by andreas
danielpbarron: >> A Unix
timestamp recording when
this block was created (Currently limited
to dates before
the year 2106!)
☟︎☟︎ danielpbarron: >>
The coinbase
transaction in block zero cannot be spent.
This is due
to a quirk of
the reference client implementation
that would open
the potential for a block chain fork if some nodes accepted
the spend and others did not
danielpbarron: and couldn't find any web wallet or any service
that would import a private key
☟︎ danielpbarron: i had a Litecoin "paper wallet" and wanted
to sell into
the price surge yesterday
danielpbarron: ;;later
tell ahmed_ you should spend
that litcoin
to a different address; I sent you
the private key over plain
text
BingoBoingo going
to check my lawn and make sure it is coon free
_biO_: i find
that offensive
BingoBoingo: Not
to much, saw you joined figured I'd offer voice.
BingoBoingo confesses, my attraction
to OpenBSD is for
the easy configuration and handholding
hanbot: mod6 wunderbar! will be sure
to pester as/if necessary. looks about a couple orders of magnitude slimmer
than handbook at first glance, exciting
mod6: (others are welcome
to
test
these as well, ofc)
mod6: hanbot: anyway,
thanks again, let me know if you have any questions.
mod6: Upon further successful
testing of
these guides,
they'll be submitted
to
the mailing list, etc.
mod6: Did it cut
them off from my message?
mod6: Thanks for
the help!
mod6: hanbot: I finally have a guide you can follow for an amd64 (x86-64) Gentoo install on physical hardware.
This guide is actually part A (just
the commands & notes) and part B (with examples from my own install process).
trinque & I have both
tested
this independantly, and
the steps got us
to a working install. Hopefully you'll get
the same result! You should probably just read
through both before actually doing anything. Here are
the URL's

BingoBoingo: Latin American hitting is
the best. Japanesep pitching
technique is great. Just Japanese coaching
techniques destroys arms.
BingoBoingo: mats: Up until 2013
the Japs. Problem is
the Japs have such a
toxic culture
towards starting pitchers. 2013 Dominican Republic won. Semifinal Part of
the USA (Puerto Rico) beat
the rest of USA
mats: BingoBoingo: who usually wins
these
things?
mats: can confirm
there is no cock in
that one
BingoBoingo: mats: Last "World Baseball Classic"
the japs were knocked out by
the Netherlands
to my great profit.
decimation: modern equiv is
that 'slat fence' armor
decimation: poor sops in wwii didn't have a proper
timer for anything
decimation: lol but apparently it
too was impact-triggered
decimation: mats:
they could
toss
those magnetic mines, seems much more practical
mats: grenades for
the port?
mats: i hear
the japanese are pretty good at baseball
decimation: one wonders if
that if
the jap could get close enough
to hide in bushes - why not bury actual anti-tank mine?
decimation: asciilifeform: lol
the infantry equiv. of a kamakaze raid
mircea_popescu: the "ambush done right" is
this
thing still awaiting embodiement irl.
assbot: Successfully added a rating of 1 for lobbesbot with note:
tis my bot
decimation: yeah, but if ambush is done right - not much chance
to shoot back
mircea_popescu: decimation
the problem
those ports were probably
trying
to address is not "middle of
tank battle" but "tank got ambushed by infantry"
lobbes: !rate lobbesbot 1
tis my bot
decimation: this means
the most obvious anti-tank move for infantry is
the
traditional one - ambush
decimation: although I guess
the early panzerfausts only had a 30m range!
decimation: yeah, anything
to make
them
think
they aren't gonna die in a fire or hail of metal shards
decimation: at any rate, if a competent infantryman gets close enough
to be killed by pistol - you are already dead
decimation: lol "Other useless features were pistol ports (in
the middle of a
tank battle I am going
to
throw my 1911.45 cal handgun into
the mix!),"
decimation: unless you are friends with
the governor or whatever
decimation: asciilifeform: in maryland I suspect
the answer is always no
decimation: asciilifeform: some forums I read suggest
that
they can't inspect your weapon (without a warrant), just
the
tax stamp
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i
thought zamac is actually an alloy not a carbide
BingoBoingo: "fine clay" << /me mostly considers lical jungle clay of which
there is an abundance.
mircea_popescu: (break a "solid metal" chinese item - see
the porous microstructure)
mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> Now clay is a material with wildly inconsistent properties <<
the difference between properly fired fine clay and
the bizarre ceramic-like metal replacement
the chinese use is slight.
decimation: oh lordy, white man shootin' black people. gonna be
trayvon all over again
decimation: this whole hastert affair still pisses me off. imagine if a state voted
to make it illegal for a bank
to report your cash
transaction
to
the feds
decimation: please do. if we can get someone
to author anti kyc/aml regulation in some state it would be a huge win for bitcoin
mats: i
think i'll have
to bone up on my case law for
this conversation
decimation: that's why
they didn't
take colorado
to court, for instance
decimation: yeah but here's
the
thing,
the feds don't want
to go
to scotus
mats: that works until scotus
tells you
to fuck off
mats: makes
them an easy
target for unscrupulous opportunists
decimation: as long as
the 'reform' you want is popular,
the fed's hands are
tied
to a degree
mats: feds are still busy fucking
the state
decimation: mats: yeah but it kinda demonstrated
that
the feds are a paper
tiger
decimation: if you are gonna waste your
time on us politics,
the most effective use would be state plebecites
mats: whats
that you're referring
to
decimation: apparently colorado and others can just preempt federal law if
they feel like it, and
the feds are 'unable'
to do anything
BingoBoingo: Around
these parts he would be white
tie formal
decimation: actually if
there's hope for
the us, it seems
to be with
the states
mats: Billy Bob
Thornton is one creepy dude
BingoBoingo: decimation: it is a grey area open
to continuing litigation which is why
the states in question pushed
this kind of federal premption stuff forward,
to keep
the lawyers in an other
than nekkid state
decimation: anti-gun nuts love
to make guns louder, so
they annoy people on nuisance grounds
decimation: some states won't let you have
them even if
they are registered
