to first
assbot: Logged on 02-05-2015 22:59:54; Ralph: Waiting for my payout on
the "BTC
to
top $500 before 1st May" bet so I can bet
the Mayweather - Pacquiao fight.
decimation: althought in
the case of
the 787 I
think it lacks hydraulics, so it would
take a fair bit of power
to move
the electric controls
decimation: re: ac power failure on 787 < actually my understanding is
that most jetliners actually have a crank-out windmill
to power basic navigation systems
williamdunne: To see his book performed on
the worlds largest
theatre
williamdunne: >3 — Patrol Wagon:
Those who were arrested were cuffed and piled into large armored patrol wagons. In our vehicle, men were all
together in
the back. Women were in single cells or double cells. We waited in
the vehicle for over 2 hours without moving until
they had filled it
to
their liking (we ended up with 12 people).
The last
two people who were arrested were not even part of
the protests,
they w
jurov: fucking police state,
this
☟︎ williamdunne: I really want
to see Mayweather get knocked
the fuck out
Ralph: I'm betting on a draw.
The fix is in, Vegas wants a rematch.
jurov: it may
take a day or so,
they are doing payouts on
their leisure
Ralph: I don't mean
to nag, but I don't know what's holding up
the payout. Looks like
the bitcoins for
the payout are just sitting here --> 1QJRejN99TYnk8Ctae1ZxtMhmrgRqs6bPF
Ralph: It would work, but
the betting address is only open for 3 days, so it would be a bad idea.
jurov: kako'd prolly reward such smartassery by converting it
to gracious donation
to shareholders :D
jurov: dunno what would happen if you generated an addy for second bet and used it straight as payout

☟︎ mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes also "myriad scripts and patches
to said are written" is not useful.
assbot: Logged on 02-05-2015 19:11:43; mircea_popescu: cazalla who in
the us ~doesn't~ face 20 years in jail, i wish
to know. it's what
that country is predicated on, by now. "i am a us citizen and i face
twenty years in jail
three
times before breakfast. i hope
they give us marmelade
today".

williamdunne: But yeah. No excuse for payments
to
take anything more
than 5 seconds
mircea_popescu: the idea here is
that payments clear across a continent as if
they would in
the home market.
mircea_popescu: Pierre_Rochard europe already did
this. it's called sepa, and it doesn't do anything.
Pierre_Rochard: Or nationalize Visa and ACH and make
them free & instant, which is what I would do if I was in charge of keeping
the USbezzle going
mircea_popescu: "economy of scale" is simply one item in
the shanonizer.
williamdunne: Which has nothing
to do with economies of scale
williamdunne: I'm guessing
they mean flooding
the network with
TXs
williamdunne: Mm I'm not meaning
they could, I'm just
thinking about what
they
think
they could do
Pierre_Rochard: williamdunne: one handwave in south america can cause a hurricane in florida.
that’s
the
theory right?
williamdunne: Not sure what economies of scale have
to do with it
mircea_popescu: you don't understand, "The State will use economies of scale
to make
the bitcoin network
too expensive/impossible
to use."
williamdunne: Also equally lulzy "its like a ***sql database, but uses
the exact opposite of concurrency, has high latency, and low
throughput"
assbot: Logged on 02-05-2015 18:38:05; williamdunne: Pierre_Rochard: I
think you misinterpreted Preston's
tweet. He's derping about his Eris Industries blockchain as a DB idea
mircea_popescu: hopefully
the pilots brought flap actuator batteries and whatnot
mircea_popescu: what pray
tell will you figure out,
that
thing steers like a battleship.
davout: for an A380 you'll still have an available flying distance of 22
times your altitude
to figure something out
davout: I'm not an expert in
the field, yet, but maybe what's meant by "failsafe" is: "it's better
to shut power down
than
to somehow explode inflight"
davout: so apparently an A380 can't go
to mars after all
assbot: Logged on 02-05-2015 14:14:00; danielpbarron: "If
the four main generator control units (associated with
the engine-mounted generators) were powered up at
the same
time, after 248 days of continuous power, all four GCUs will go into failsafe mode at
the same
time, resulting in a loss of all AC electrical power regardless of flight phase." << apparently due
to an integer overflow (248 days == 2^31 * 1/100 seconds)
mircea_popescu: cazalla who in
the us ~doesn't~ face 20 years in jail, i wish
to know. it's what
that country is predicated on, by now. "i am a us citizen and i face

☟︎ mircea_popescu: as a result,
the countless shanonizers are inches away from reproducing shakespeare.
mircea_popescu: the social studies million army may well be useless, but it is not in point of fact idle.
the important difference is
that while
the printing presses of money are run as fast as
they can run but by a central authority,
the printing presses of discourse are run in overdrive independently.
mircea_popescu: but generally, you can find incredibly ample if very well unknown networks of prose dedicated
to any random nonsense you wish
to pick.
mircea_popescu: the beauty of
the free market is
that it doesn't require intelligent participants, nor does it allow governance.
mircea_popescu notices in
the churned "social media" data
that "address reuse" has gone from "unanimity"
to "most people recommend" "in most cases".
trinque: this having a key for a given project is kinda neat, sort of
trinque DBA deedbot-
williamdunne: Pierre_Rochard: I
think you misinterpreted Preston's
tweet. He's derping about his Eris Industries blockchain as a DB idea
☟︎ trinque: tonight I'm going
to work on it belching
the deed URLs into chan when published, and I
think
that about wraps up
the spec
trinque: leaving deedbot- rates wouldn't be a bad way
to request features or give feedback imo
mircea_popescu: williamdunne you might have
to change scoopbot_revived
to a new key
then associate
the old one
to
the nerw nic
williamdunne: Just made some changes
though, checks if connected in main loop rather
than by doing it with an event
trinque: !up in pm
takes whoever you are at
the moment
trinque: assbot does
take your IRC nick
davout: not sure your IRC nick needs
to be
the same as your wot nick
williamdunne: Can I change
the name associated with Scoop's GPG key?
trinque: well as long as you've been
told...
trinque: williamdunne:
that one's free, would be much shorter
davout: try
to cloak it will ya
davout: "i have a problem and
then i fix it and
then
there's no problem"
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: I don't know for sure, but it happened a lot before I even started using #b-a. Wifi connection drops and
then I reconnect it and all is good
davout: just do it, i'd bet
the connection will stop dropping
davout: meh, maybe you don't know but it's pretty often
that anyone connecting uncloaked gets massively ddos'd
trinque: williamdunne: check out my friend vhost-'s
tenyks, it has a "feeds" plugin already
