BingoBoingo: * asciilifeform quits reading the nonsense
<< Then you miss "Full nodes could record and release or sell the IP addresses of their SPV clients, in a large breach of privacy. That they do not do this is incredibly nice of them."
mircea_popescu: "It has become a commonly repeated mantra, among extreme libertarian Bitcoin cultists, that "if Bitcoin relies on altruism, then it has already failed.""

<< You gotta listen to KMOX in the car. Keeps you up with fiat paranoia
mod6:
<+jurov> oh it's going to be all unpacked there?
<< yeah, perhaps not. currently i extract & build all that stuff under 'rotor'. i guess shit should just be:
<+jurov> "The shit: BDB, Boost, OpenSSL & the MANIFEST for turds"
<- this stuff the turdballs and the manifest.
BingoBoingo:
<ascii_field> BingoBoingo et al ^^ qntra ?
<< will read
ascii_field: 'I proceeded to disassemble a Nokia 2110 battery pack, remove the batteries, glue it to a 6-volt lead-acid gel cell battery, and clip the phone onto the resulting giant battery pack (when the battery is many times larger than the phone, you don't clip the battery onto the phone). The result, "Gorba's Return", has a standby time of more than a month.'

BingoBoingo:
<pete_dushenski> hmm 6 btc against trump for republican nomination in just the last day and a half, what are these people on ?
<< Ted Cruz is having a moment
pete_dushenski: ascii_field "Yes, you can sell part or all of your stock anytime for a trading commission of only 99 cents. You can also buy more of a stock you already own, or buy a new stock, for 99 cents a trade."

<+mircea_popescu> mod6 but this manifest... wouldn't you say it's of the nature of the sigils ?
<< im not sure i understand this.
mod6:
<+mircea_popescu> the manifest should live wherever the rotor.sh lives neh ?
<< I would argue that all of these scripts would live outside of bitcoin source V tree.
mod6:
<+mircea_popescu> my personal ideal would be that ALL directories involved in this without exception are spawned as subdirs of whatever current dir the script ran in.
<< this makes sense. right now you end up with /.../rotor/ and ~/.wot, and ~/.seals iirc.
