mircea_popescu: yes,
that's
the problem
there : in order
to have your own oppinions you need
to study
the groupthink.
Chillum: my own damn opinions keep getting in
the way
Chillum: I never was very good at group
think
mircea_popescu: Chillum i suspek you have
to do a bunch of log reading
to acclimate
to
the groupthink.
Chillum: I still
think my clients would prefer
their api keys encrypted
pete_dushenski: ssl provides much security
theatre and little apparent security
assbot: Logged on 28-03-2015 14:56:34; Chillum: In my opinion SSL is not a
turd
to be ripped out
mircea_popescu: apparently wikipedia is keenly aware it exists primarily as an advertising source. just... not for
the fucking chinese aaaite ?

Chillum: nubbins`:
they use pepper spray around here
nubbins`: lel, protestors have started doxxing
the riot police
nubbins`: i always wondered why
there was a Future Shop and a Best Buy less
than a block away from each other
Chillum: and I will make one
to monitor
the uptime of yours
thestringpuller: I'm
thinking of making a bot
to determine uptime of other bots ;)
nubbins`: every
time she'd open my laptop, 5 seconds later an onjoin alert from assbot pops up on screen
Chillum: no honey, I swear
the assbot is for strictly business purposes!
Chillum: ahhh, did not get
the name
felipelalli: I was asking because gribble is kind of "universal", it is in everywhere, including here, and also in #bitcoin-bra --- I
thought assbot was a kind of universal WoT like gribble.
nubbins`: i doubt kakobrekla wants
to do it, since he doesn't idle in -otc :D
nubbins`: if -otc wants a new bot, someone
there can set one up
PeterL: they make a more resilient system with
two nodes rather
than one
Chillum: the bandwidth
that goes
through
the API is so small
that
the SSL module would be using a negligible amount of resources
felipelalli: I
thought assbot also worked as a gribble backup?
Chillum: In my opinion SSL is not a
turd
to be ripped out
☟︎ Chillum: really SSL is not using
that much horse power compared
to
the other stuff
the client does
Chillum: The page could use more information about
the security implications and
the expected use case
though. Someone might get
told it is
the latest and greatest and not realize security has been bypassed
Chillum: A great idea for a light node
though, if
the security situation permits it
Chillum: my box needs
to expose its API
though
nubbins`: this whole
thing started with asciilifeform wishing he had bitcoin source code in dead-tree form
Chillum: though all of
that can be disabled in config
Chillum: I just need
to make a $100 node
nubbins`: asciilifeform would be
the one
to question about
the specifics of it 8)
Chillum: May
try
that out for my own purposes
nubbins`: the idea here is
to get a bare-bones reference implementation
Chillum: I am sure
the change makes it run faster which is great for embedded devices
that don't need
to worry _too_ much about malware on
the machine
nubbins`: there's
the patch, you
tell me 8)
Chillum: can't I just MITM
the connection without
that?
Chillum: "Removes OpenSSL Handshake for RPC commands" Isn't
that important?
nubbins`: all
the patches are written by people in here, and pgp-signed
nubbins`: anyway, check out
that pastebin,
that's
the release notes for 0.5.3.1
Chillum: and
the API needs
to spit out parsed block data on demand so
that 3rd party apps can work with
the data
Chillum: If anything QT should have nothing
to do with bitcoin other
than being in a client
that accesses
the daemon
felipelalli: I want
to buy 1 BTC in Monero. Here is a good place
to ask?
Chillum: just like
the bittorrent reference client sucked(but did what it needed
too, reference
the protocol) so does bitcoind
nubbins`: right now people are just ripping
the
turds out
Chillum: Glad it is still being worked on. But frankly I would like
to see a complete re-write of
the client
nubbins`: they're all small enough
that you can fit each one inside your head enough
to understand it
nubbins`: but if you're so inclined, you could actually just grab legacy 0.5.3 from your favourite source, and apply
the patches listed on
the site
Chillum: I will keep an eye on
the project
nubbins`: there's a RELEASE NOTES included
that lists
the patches applied
nubbins`: it's based on
the historical 0.5.3
Chillum: There is so little information on
that site about what
the changes actually are or how
they have been audited. It seems
to have been made in November. It would be a bit like running a custom code version of PGP
nubbins`: Chillum prolly 'cause you're using
the latest phoundation bloatware
Chillum: Nice. I
tried
that on a Pi 1 but it chocked
nubbins`: you can see it just south of
the middle
there
nubbins`: and:
the heat sink is on
the bottom of
the board, so you can
take off
the lid without repercussion
nubbins`: soooooo,
the pogoplug mobile (non-sata) has solder pads for attaching a SATA connector
PeterL: 'capitol' is specifically
the building where
the legislature meets, 'capital' is
the city
chetty: thats edumacation
these days
Chillum: I have been spelling
that wrong my what life
Chillum: never seen
that spelling before
chetty: oops capitol ;P -- on
theother hand I like
the B idea better
chetty: ppfft on embassy, let
them come here
to
the capital
Chillum: well,
they declared a
tax so an embassy must be around
the corner
Chillum: "in fact, forget about
the embassy!"
Chillum: haha "screw you guys, I am going
to start my own embassy with blackjack and hookers!"
chetty: <nubbins`> and with
the potential
to set back scientific research :S// is
that even possible?
nubbins`: and with
the potential
to set back scientific research :S
assbot: Major publisher retracts 43 scientific papers amid wider fake peer-review scandal -
The Washington Post ... (
http://bit.ly/1xIDOig )
nubbins`: ABC (anti-ball crushing) engineering gives you and
the family jewels room
to breathe
nubbins`: "Claiming
that his operation would be “completely dicked over” by an influx of product, Vice President Joe Biden reportedly became increasingly worried
this week
that
the recent legalization of marijuana in Washington, D.C. could seriously cut into his business."
assbot: Biden Worries Legalized Weed In D.C. Will Cut Into His Business |
The Onion - America's Finest News Source ... (

nubbins`: o hey i
took everyone's advice and started a blog
funkenstein_: lol,
that sucks. well at least you got some pictures :)
nubbins`: funkenstein_
the guy wouldn't sell it
to me.
total fraud.
funkenstein_: nubbins what ever happened
to
that wood carving with your name on it?
nubbins`: and finally found a good price for purple pogos,
two of
them on
the way
nubbins`: curious
to see how much
the SD chokes
nubbins`: okay, sweet. i've got a 60GB SSD and a 64gb UHS-1 SD card on
the way.
nubbins`: first comment: "Don't know if
this is an actual notebook or a laptop" hahaha
nubbins`: "Hey guys I am down at
the
Texas Bitcoin Conference and someone
took my red notebook.
There was not a whole lot of valuable info in it but it was a gift. If you saw it
tonight at marias
taco xpress or know where it wound up please notify me. I
thought
this was outside bitcoiners' character but I am never surprised in
this space"
nubbins`: "that's such an /american/
thing, hey? 'mentoring'? movin'
to a big city and getting yourself a mentor or five?"
