copypaste: I see, it makes sense. Unfortunately browser vendors have been very difficult about this lately.
mircea_popescu: can you give me a ftp user in a subdir on your server and run it from there ?
copypaste: If you have any domain with a valid HTTPS cert you could use that
mircea_popescu: well what the shit.
mircea_popescu: yeah but then how do i add/remove banners.
copypaste: Because the iframe still refers to the plain HTTP trilema.com :(
copypaste: It won't work with the iframe method. I would need the source code of that file and run it on 8chan's server
mircea_popescu: copypaste how about something like this : http://trilema.com/cutekittens/tittylick.php
mircea_popescu: lemme have it changed, a second, then you see.
copypaste: I'm linking via iframe like this
mircea_popescu: listen, what if i push the image out as base64 ?
mircea_popescu: you rewrite them ?!
mircea_popescu: copypaste uh it shouldn't have https at all ? my references are all to http
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform 20mn users x 20 watts = doubling the current hash power. /me is unimpressed.
asciilifeform: and they use it.
mircea_popescu: you get it with the internet and nobody uses it
mircea_popescu has no idea about any of that market.
mircea_popescu: oh, people still get tv ?
asciilifeform: it is what folks pay for when they subscribe to 'cable tv'
asciilifeform: ^ i think jurov was speaking of 'tv-style' interface where schmuck is not aware that he is using the net, doesn't sit around hunting for warez, etc. but just sits with ir remote & drools
trinque: mircea_popescu: yeh tittydrip works :D
mircea_popescu: but i didn't take it.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-05-2015#1130961 << i have internet here, no magic box. had it in romania too, they offered me the magic box. i didn't want it , the woman was in shock ☝︎
asciilifeform: i'm still curious, who is going to outcompete a hypothetical usg telecom monopoly inserting miners into cable boxes etc. and on what parameter ? cost of energy ? nope - schmucks pay. cost of manufacture? again, schmucks pay, indirectly. which is it ?
assbot: Logged on 13-05-2015 21:55:40; pete_dushenski: by the time they roll these out and get them into any appreciable number of homes, it'll look like trying to fight the nazis by arming every american with slingshots
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-05-2015#1130948 << tbh i think he has it, but anyway. ☝︎
asciilifeform: but merely the minimal iron necessary to getwork() from usg and return results in a form that is unusable to mitmers
asciilifeform: by 'hanging off one node', meant that the device issued to schmucks will not include a node
mircea_popescu: im sure nukes will help them keep it up.
mircea_popescu: will be fun to ddos then.
asciilifeform: betcha plan is to have'em all hang off one node
asciilifeform: the miscreants from earlier thread, with the cable boxes ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'once the rockets go up, who cares where they come down; that's not my department, said werhner von braun...'
asciilifeform: takes up all of 1% of the gates
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: there is also a counter, yes
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Yeah they don't trigger it
mircea_popescu: williamdunne does that work ?
asciilifeform: they only appear complicated because 1) folks slept through school 2) lack of popular access to chip fab tech translates to lack of interest in even the most elementary aspects of engineering
mircea_popescu: copypaste pls to use http://trilema.com/cutekittens/tittydrip.php instead!
asciilifeform: for the benefit of log readers, i will point out again, that a sha256 hashing circuit is dwarfed, complexity-wise, by all but the simplest 'homework' cpu, gpu, whatever other ic product
mircea_popescu: trinque you figure it actually blocks an image wrapped in an url ? that's almost all of em ?
mircea_popescu awaits the 500 verilog lines gpu and the 2200 lines cpu to be released by intel soon=ish, totally busting the market.
asciilifeform: most of them, i will point out, long before i did
asciilifeform: many other folks did this
asciilifeform mined his first, and for long time, only bitcoin, on an fpga for which he wrote a very elementary miner, as an exercise
asciilifeform: but the overall complexity of the act of mining is not high
asciilifeform: it isn't the most optimal in the world (far from it) and a 'serious', 'grown man's' miner oughta be designed at discrete logic level
mircea_popescu: it seems like your browser supplies it somehow ? the source has no class spec.
williamdunne: Yeah, thats the one I'm getting
mircea_popescu: yes, they'll have this in five years. the effort required to do it in a year ? you'd hear.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform do you understand the qty of engineering involved.
mircea_popescu: yeah well. it's supposed to go into a diff page, with its own declarations, and it uses no glyphs.
williamdunne: 03:11:47.553 The character encoding of the HTML document was not declared. The document will render with garbled text in some browser configurations if the document contains characters from outside the US-ASCII range. The character encoding of the page must be declared in the document or in the transfer protocol.1 rotator.php
williamdunne: One thing:
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: quite possibly they read the 2013 #b-a thread and took the advice of baking a hashing engine into an existing system-on-chip design
williamdunne: On the other I get a very quick flash of the no image logo, which then disappears
williamdunne: The trilema rotator works on neither of my computers :/
asciilifeform wasn't there, doesn't know at which in particular
mircea_popescu: they can't produce anything at "one of the fabs"
asciilifeform: at one of their fabs
mircea_popescu: has to be made.
asciilifeform: afaik no one alleged that this particular set is plugged in yet
mircea_popescu: maybe they're doing it in supersecret, but so far, on the balance of intelligence, it's just gift of gab.
mircea_popescu: i've yet to see any tripwire move.
asciilifeform: how this act is financed is a secondary consideration. for all i know, they are whoring out their daughters to pay for it
asciilifeform: is it entirely inconceivable that they are in fact churning out miners ?
mircea_popescu: it's like you're expecting to find flesh under a stand-up cut-out of angelina jolie.
assbot: Logged on 13-05-2015 21:45:12; asciilifeform: 'By the time its chips were to be embedded into Internet of Things (IoT) devices, 21 projected its cost to produce 1 BTC could be as low as $7.45.' << somebody does not grasp difficulty factor ?
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-05-2015#1130904 << dude. it's the pump phase of a pump and dump scam. what do you expect ? there is no connection between the depicted elements under the surface. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: mebbe. tho i dun think so. not that i have any serious basis for it.
mircea_popescu: i dun think so.
asciilifeform: the talmudists had it right, in their picture of wisdom being at peak (in their cosmography, in the era of moses) and fading away monotonically since
asciilifeform: what can i say, these folks have more distance between selves and the cultured times.
mircea_popescu: just as many poltrons then, but really, a lot more style.
mircea_popescu: you know, these schmucks have nothing of the quality of schmuckdom in the soviet times.
asciilifeform: to be fair, the item under review was a prng turd written for turdroid etc.
assbot: Logged on 13-05-2015 21:32:00; asciilifeform: this fella used to be the 'genuine article'
cazalla: no doubt about that
cazalla: fwiw, i'd bang all 5 but only admit to 2 or maybe 3 of em
assbot: [NSFW] Tigancusa, spune drept... on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1e2wGnY )
cazalla: nothing forgiving about 1 out of 5 girls wearing jeans at the beach
cazalla: doesn't seem anyone wants to bang #3
mircea_popescu: and consequently the brand name was covagin
mircea_popescu: random lulz : in the 70s, romania was doing a very argnetine-like autarky thing. making local whisky, local everything. including local gin, which was made at covasna,
mircea_popescu: the human body has some permissible cuts, and the calves aren't it. if you don't cut the neck, the next is the torso, between lower rib and belly button, and if you don't cut that you don't cut anything.
danielpbarron: i took that pic, it is my own. but i'll keep that in mind for future reference
seraminta: did u post that dude lol
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron you know you gotta let people publish their own pics.
danielpbarron: https://i.imgur.com/bbXqps5.jpg << seraminta is the one on the right (best pic i could find)
williamdunne: Including the cost of the SSD itself ofc
williamdunne: I can remember a while ago a calculation being done that it was cheaper to have a 120gb SSD filled with data shipped to Canada than it was to download onto your existing drive
BingoBoingo: mxtm: Not really. only encoded with 4 letter character set. T, C, A, G
williamdunne: BingoBoingo: In some places delivery services are still the most cost effective way of transporting web data
mxtm: semen also transfers lots of data quickly
BingoBoingo: Nah, station wagons has always been the premier unit of data transfer and what is money, but data on who doesn't suck
mxtm: i want to use them
mxtm: i have all of these priority mail boxes and free tape now
trinque: or a box of cash within which there are several boxes of cash
mxtm eyes the boxes in the closet he would never be able to fill
mxtm: cash in mail is also a good option especially for "off the books" type stuff
