Cogburn: i'm okay with
that, so long as
there is a choice
Cogburn: slavery in our
time is a choice
Cogburn: don't
talk
to me of slavery if you are paid a wage
trinque: like
that
time in history where
things went nice and easy
Cogburn: then
things just change on
their own
Cogburn: if
things are going
to change, we first have
to stop getting fuced
BingoBoingo impressed
there is so much lag between axe
time and sword
time
Cogburn: that's what my project aims
to do
Cogburn: everyone is
tired of getting fucked
funkenstein_: musicians are also
tired of getting fucked by
the riaa
Cogburn: I
think
that RIAA is
tired of getting fucked by new
technology and drank
their own koolaid.
mod6: asciilifeform: so, If I wanna play around, I should
try gxemul before qemu?
Cogburn: This is not what I would call a "receptive audience"
to my idea.
Cogburn: I understand. I also appreciate where it is
that I say
these
things.
Cogburn: I understand your analogy better
than you
think.
Cogburn: Let's assume my RIAA project is real. Let's assume it happens, and partners with
TIDAL for content provision. If 1,000,000 people listen
to 3 minute songs for 1 hour,
that's 3,000,000+
TX per block in microtransactions.
Cogburn: I hadn't seen it expressed
that way before
Cogburn: i remember
the disagreement.
there was someone else in it
too... i can't remember
assbot: Logged on 03-04-2015 01:30:49; Cogburn: we disagree.
that's not hate.
Cogburn: I have no idea what we were
talking about
Cogburn: I literally cannot remember
the context
Cogburn: MP and I had a little row at
the end of 2013 and I
think
that's where it stemmed from
trinque: Cogburn: I'm still waiting on an elaboration of
this disagreement
danielpbarron: when condensing
thoughts into 140 characters i
tend
to chop out
the nice sounding bits leaving only
the necessary harsh words
BingoBoingo: <Cogburn>
There's always
twitter << Stop by again. Just remember on
Twitter danielpbarron
tends
to bite harder
than here.
Cogburn: it's a pleasure. i'm glad i did. i didn't realize
that people
thought i hated MP or something. I don't hate anyone. Life is
too short.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> lol what even is
this. << Rooster Cogburn's a Marshall on
the altcoin wild west
danielpbarron: some guy who
thinks he is a big name in bitcoin but needs
to acknowledge
that he is currently a nobody in
the realm
that counts
BingoBoingo: Cogburn: Of all people you might have an interest in sticking your head out here from
time
to
time and getting friendly with people.
danielpbarron: and nobody is forcing you
to register your slave name
danielpbarron: anonymity is overrated, and it isn't for
the poor anyway
trinque: no one connected
to
the internet on any device
that exists has anonymity
Cogburn: For what? People come
to my coffee house from bitcoin every few months.
Cogburn: You know
the WoT is basically forensic evidence, right?
Cogburn: However I'm already 32 degree freemason, so
thank you but no
thank you
BingoBoingo: Cogburn: As someone else from
the borderlands between
the middle west and
the middle south of
the US I swear
the WoT doesn't hurt
that much
trinque: Cogburn: ...sounds like a great reason
to register so
that you may retain voice and discuss
that with him
danielpbarron: if you want
to help,
the first step is getting in
the WoT
Cogburn: I
truly hope MP is interested in
this because if he wanted
to compete with 21.co I would be very down
to help.
trinque: and if
the economic implications of
their fork eventually make
the
thing worthless,
the original will have
the posture
towards it
that it has
towards fiat
Cogburn: that means all
those buddies in palo alto
that everyone uses will fork
to
that chain
BingoBoingo: <Cogburn> according
to consensus,
the 70% wins, right? <<
The beautiful
thing about concensus is how many releases have been make since $100+ BTC which must agree
Cogburn: Looking deeper,
that's a silicon valley brain child
danielpbarron: the consensus of whom? you still have
to sell
those 100m coins
Cogburn: but
that's a single entity
Cogburn: according
to consensus,
the 70% wins, right?
danielpbarron: i'm gonna keep running my node
that ignores
their invalid blocks
danielpbarron: if you
think socialism is good,
then bitcoin is evil
to you
Cogburn: let's say
they end up
to comprise 70% of
the network
Cogburn: 21.co get $120m
to make ASICs
Cogburn: there's an article from late 2013 and i wish i could find it entitled "What if Bitcoin
turned Evil?"
funkenstein_: Alert keys. I hope somebody pushes a cosbycoin message
through someday :)
Cogburn: pun intended? what is bitcoin if not
the core reference client?
danielpbarron: gavin has
the attention poor people who
think
that
talking about bitcoin makes
them a part of it somehow
trinque: these clowns are no more "the bitcoin guys"
than anyone else
trinque: no problem, but
that is
the core of
the issue
BingoBoingo: Cogburn> gavin has
the keys. he's "that guy" <<
Thermos also has a copy of
the "Keys"
trinque: Cogburn: with nothing grounding it
to reality
danielpbarron: the ones snipped from
the code because
they mean nothing?
Cogburn: gavin has
the keys. he's "that guy"
Cogburn: many people. i fully support his
threat
to fork bitcoin if gavin's block expansion goes
through. he's 100% correct
that it is an economic alteration
to
the network and not simple
technical
Cogburn: MP doesn't have
the market cornered on being crazy. some of us are just fucking nuts as he is. just not as rich. yet.
