jurov: there are n900's with broken gsm module available cheaply, and
they have 32GB flash storage
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: seems like "clustefuck
to
the hard fork"
type deal goin on.
jurov: lol my parents were in '87
to moscow/leningrad and naively went shopping
to "beriozka" for rubbles ... were
told "dolary" and shown
the door
assbot: Logged on 27-05-2015 09:23:44; mircea_popescu: Other issues with ZKP include
the RSA private key used
to initiate
the accumulator, which must be
trusted
to be destroyed by
the generating party. << for
the record,
this isn't "other issues".
this is enough
to render
the entire
thing a joke.
assbot: Logged on 27-05-2015 09:01:53; mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic in retrospect,
the discovery
that out of
the 89 so mirrored factors, any more
than 0 are ~actually~ prime would contradict reasonable expectation significantly,
assbot: Logged on 27-05-2015 08:53:47; mircea_popescu:
that's it. fuckall i give a shit about whatever any woman hummed in any circumstance and whatever
tree or bird or wheeltrack
through
the mud.
jurov: it's done by
the same chumps as
these routers
jurov: i wouldn't be surprised at all if baseband has
that
gribble: You rated user davout on
Tue Apr 22 11:42:23 2014, with a rating of 3, and supplied
these additional notes: bitcoin-central; met IRL.
jurov: hope someone does
this for gsm baseband soon,
too
mircea_popescu: no "20 years
to life for wilfully breaking
the law from a position of government".
chetty: well I bet some did, coursts issued injunctions but I
think
the agencies just ignored it
mircea_popescu: chetty and i presume
the people in question already received
the green cards right ?
cazalla: i
thought his amnesty was quite limited
to who and
time (3 years?)
chetty: O made exec order about giving illegals status and green cards and stuff,
Texas sued
mircea_popescu: if ballas were around
the one
thing i'd ask him would be
to write up
this particular story. it's something else, "the failures of roger ver's pretense on
the jagged shores of reality - 2010 - 2015"
chetty: appeals court ruled against obama amnesty stuff, sometimes
the law kinda works, but I doubt it will stop anything, courts cant enforce and
there is history of O
thumbing nose at
them
cazalla: kids and
their pokemon cards
mircea_popescu: which is why we don't believe for a second
that
this is a bona fide business dispute.
cazalla: but
the bitcoinist guy should've known better seeing he already went
through
this with garza last year when garza was going
to buy bitcoinist and mate
tokay wanted green card, 200k, lambo, unit and all
that other shit
mircea_popescu: cazalla
there's at least
three parties if not like five with some sort of claim oiver it, all of which cost more
to prosecute
than
the
thing would cost
to replace.
cazalla: fluffypony, garza "bought" it last year for 1 million..
to pay off in installments over 36 months.. but garza has no money left apparently.. so he leases it
to bitcoinist, pockets
the money and
the real owner of
the domain
takes it back as garza late/failed
to make payments leaving bitcoinist up shit creek
mircea_popescu: the domain no longer has an owner, it's a
toxic asset now
mircea_popescu: fluffypony it means
the fountain of shit
these people create as a byproduct of
their metabolism.
mircea_popescu: so no, okpay isn't gonna pay him "what
the contract says". okpay doesn't belong
to
the space of delusion he belongs
to.
fluffypony: when
they say it "lead
to
the loss of
the domain" what do
they mean
mircea_popescu: and now he's stuck in a world where others may entertain his pretense (to "professionalism" or
to "business-like" or whatever else), but a) only
third worlders, and b) only for as far as
they find it net positive.
cazalla: but anyway, btc.com and bitcoin.com, 2 diff
things just occuring at
the same
time
cazalla: in his videos his eyes have
that glassed over, empty look
mircea_popescu: the guy spent more
than it was worth (in bitcoin
treading for a pittance)
to acquire a "valuable" domain, as if a domain name could ever be valuable.
cazalla: i figured him as autistic
tbh
mircea_popescu: paltry attempts
to make it stay relevant about as effectual as spitting in
the wind.
mircea_popescu: thousands of bitcoin donated
to a shitty foundation ? gone, as is
the foundation.
mircea_popescu: but
then... horror of horrors! everything he
touches
turns
to shit, and now here he is, stuck
trying
to hold on
to
the status long after
the water's gone out.
mircea_popescu: here's
the story of a simple country boy, one could say a cock-eyed optimist who got himself a number of pleabargained felonies after which
the sun seemed
to shine, and all his long held frustrations as
to relevancy for business, intellectual prowess and whatnot seemed
to realise! finally! oh, how
this moment had been pined for.
mircea_popescu: cazalla poor roger ver really belongs in
the gallery of famous
tragic characters, with brave, brave, brave sir robert,
the
tragic clown and his faithful wife nedda etc.
fluffypony: that's
the LTB podcast where I explain a bit about it
fluffypony bearing in mind
that it's on a per-input basis
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: if you use a 5 and
the recipient
then sends funds on using a mixin of 1
then
there's a risk
that
the real input can be unmasked, which links it back
to
the previous
transaction
fluffypony: oh - in
the protocol we have a block height
that is approx. 2 years from now where
the minimum mixin kicks up
to 4
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: you mean how does
the sender choose?
fluffypony: but we can prune and retain
the
txoset and
the key image set
fluffypony: davout: yes -
the sender chooses a mixin, although in ~2 years
the minimum mixin goes up
to you + 4 others (for each input)
mircea_popescu: dude if
the soviets did something right... caviar's been dead since
the 90s.
davout: i built
the daemon five days ago, have it running since
then, and it's still 220 days behind apparently
davout: so far my actual experience with monero is
that
the initial sync is horribly slow
davout: fluffypony: what was
that podcast you made in which you explained how monero works?
mircea_popescu: davout
the problem of bloat is not something
that can be individually addressed. in a sense/under a certain perspective
this is like saying
that 1800s london was incredibly smoky because of all
the heating coal usage, but you could also burn clean coal, which was only slightly more expensive.
assbot: Logged on 27-05-2015 01:46:08; decimation: yeah interestingly apple outta be an exception, given
the weight
they can
throw around
davout: in
this case
the sig may actually be smaller
davout: you could, again if i understand correctly, decide
to only spend a single input and work in a bitcoin-like 'degraded' mode
mircea_popescu: davout see kinda why i'm waiting for him
to decide
to present it.
davout: fluffypony:
this correct? ^
assbot: Logged on 27-05-2015 01:45:02; mats: fun fact:
the original iPhone shipped without privilege separation, and in
tandem with a libtiff bug Chris Wade wrote an exploit
that made it possible
to root a user visiting a web page
davout: mircea_popescu: if i understood correctly it's up
to
the sender,
the idea being
that you obfuscate where
the money's coming from by signing a group of inputs
that you may or may not contrel, only one of
them being actually spent
assbot: Logged on 27-05-2015 01:40:00; decimation: where each part manufacturer will 'application engineer'
their peice
davout: monero is pretty neat,
the only real problem I see is
that it'll bloat even faster
than bitcoin given
the fact
that ring signatures are pretty expensive
assbot: Logged on 27-05-2015 01:33:20; decimation: where's our 'snowden' from
that world?
