NewLiberty: asciilifeform: Whaleclub is a bunch of non-whales
trying
to be mini whales by 24hour chatting
their
trades.
mircea_popescu: lol "bitcoin university". best
thing
that ever happened
to any diploma mill : when
the webmaster stumbled on
tardstalk/redditards den and added "bitcoin"
to
the name
mircea_popescu: davout i don't
think he's even racist per se, not enough development of some sort of pseudogeneticist crackpottery. he's just angry in a diffuse sense.
cazalla: davout, hah i know
that, but anything i say here while drunk is really just recurring garbage from
the last
time i was drinking and chatting
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 13:16:03; nubbins`: and we all know
that a society of hedonists is a good society indeed
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 13:15:53; gabriel_laddel:
the political position of "they're cattle, we're not" is
totally A OK.
trinque: ahaha, logs,
the curse of
the evening drinker
cazalla: c'mon i was rambling after a bottle of wine, i don't want
to be reminded of last night!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform either reddit or 4chan or some other social media
thing, politicas.
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 13:09:09; cazalla: and i promoted it
to /pol/ but i was shut down and accused of being jidf so
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 13:08:37; cazalla: anyway, one might argue, and i did
try,
that /pol/ is a short stop otw
to #b-a
mircea_popescu: what really burns
them is
the football
team issue.
they don't wish
to not be cattle per se.
they're just pissed
that
they were "come
to expect"
that
THEY were
the chosen people on account of, why
the fuck not eh. and whenever it doesn't work as
they "came
to expect", it is clearly
the case
that really it works, but for someone else, so... whoddunit ?!?! (not
them!)
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 13:08:35; gabriel_laddel: What I find so lulzy about
the whole situation is
that if you
take
the supposed Zionist lit and
the /pol/ people 100% seriously it basically reduces
to "jews
think
that others are cattle"
mircea_popescu: and re latest
trilema article : someone check
the html of a page, whadda ya
think ?
mircea_popescu: now
THAT is a story of "sixteen
tons and what do you get". you get
to be four foot
tall and with adaptive modifications of
the spine.
mircea_popescu: the word is infamous because it denotes
the boys working
the sulphur mines pre ww1
mircea_popescu: carusu is
the sicilian word for boy. it derives off latin carens (missing) as in, inexperienced.
mircea_popescu: t know, as aptly butch has observed :
their names don't mean anything.
saifedean: this weekend, for instance, people have
to decide whether
they want
to ski, swim, or do both... i
tell you lebanon is stressful
saifedean: hey mp,
to get back
to your question about lebanon, here's what's interesting about it, beyond
the hard money and best food in
the world and great wine and beautiful people... less
than an hour drive between beautiful sandy Mediterranean beaches and gorgeous ski resorts... it's
the Alps on
the Riviera
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and if
tomorrow
they swtiched
to company scrip, you'd work for
that.
mircea_popescu: some profile pics, let it go. not everyone's as socially awkward / sexually repressed as you,
to use
their feet in etsy shoes / anon ducklings as an avatar.
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 12:59:12; gabriel_laddel: Note
that I dont necessarily endorse MP's viewpoint but it is rather well developed.
davout: asciilifeform:
that's kind of
the point of a day job
cazalla: mircea_popescu,
they don't sell
them locally, i am hopeful i can buy a plug it in and away it goes pogo from here once
that is sorted
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 12:56:57; cazalla:
the big mistake i made was getting a woman pregnant prior
to living with her..
things were all fine and dandy while i had my own place and could fuck her and send her home after
the fact
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 12:53:40; cazalla: and i am stuck using fucking electrum since
then because for some reason, since bitcoin-qt 0.10.0 came out, my old 0.8.3, 0.8.6
throws errors and i can't fully sync and even lame attempt
to
try 0.10.0 falls flat.. i
think maybe memory is fucked
though unrelated, memtest86
throws a bunch of errors
mod6: ben_vulpes: ok good deal! i'm about
to post
the lastest version of
the perl build script
too -- which should pull v0.0.2 of
the static-makefile patch.
mircea_popescu: but obviously
this doesn't automatically apply
to everyone's living arrangements
cazalla: mircea_popescu, cmon, i was drunk and rambling, lets please ignore all
that shit from last night lol
mircea_popescu: what's wrong is
the idea
that dependents can push one around in one's own castle.
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 12:49:43; cazalla: you guys criticise
the mancave but seriously, when
the missus and
the kid push you out of
the masterbedroom due
to lack of sleep and
then push you out
the kids room which was
turned into makeshift computer room but needs it back because apparently a pig pen isn't big enough for him now, you might appreciate
the man cave aka cold ass garage
davout: they
think
they're better
than everyone with
their fancy "o"s
mircea_popescu: "Chainalysis achieves
this by doing sophisticated in-depth real-time
transaction analysis
to determine unique entities within
the blockchain. Michael Grønager Chief Executive Officer Jan Møller Chief
Technology Officer Jens Hilligsøe DevOps Engineer Kresten Krab
Throup Consulting Architect Jørn Larsen Business Advisor"
davout: mircea_popescu: you actually need proof it was gold in
the first place anyway
mircea_popescu: just nothing
the power rangers ever felt like discussing, prior.
mircea_popescu: davout except now you'll have
to add a proof of
toilet.
davout: mircea_popescu: "how
the fuck does one destroy gold ?" <<< aqua regia down
the
toilet
mircea_popescu: cazalla well whatever, he prolly got
the username way back.
cazalla: but still,
that'd be like me coming here under
the name whaleclub
cazalla: mircea_popescu, it's just his username i am referring
to
mircea_popescu: "The Bitcoin protocol, when implemented correctly, has a degree of sybil resistance when it comes
to partitioning and double-spend risk as an attacker must get _all_ your connections for
those attacks, but
this kind of activity can really violate user privacy since privacy attacks don't need
to get all your connections; especially for SPV nodes which liberally broadcast
their wallet addresses
to nodes
that
they're usin
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 12:34:36; cazalla: worse,
TaT masquerades as bitcoinassets on it and is a mod
to boot
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 12:33:18; cazalla: b) some random cunt is
talking about launching an altcoin whereby he "destroys an oz of gold on webcam" as proof of burn for creation of his altcoin
thestringpuller: I was
trying
to get wireshark
to work, but it wants x11 and doesn't seem
to work with quartz without poking at it.
thestringpuller: looks like I need
to set headers
to base64 and i should be good
thestringpuller: cuz
there literally is no examples of how
to implement
the standard for binary
mircea_popescu: they still do
this ? i
thought it was mostly a great leap forward into a brick wall phenoimenon
mircea_popescu: there's like 1k 470 ohm bits exactly, and
then 10 items at 230, which make it be +-5% over
the batch
mircea_popescu: weird. "for your convenience, we have packed five half-resistence resistors separately,
to bring
the average
to a 5%
tolerance as you required"
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla apparently his
thing got 400 instead of 200 ohm resistors, but funnily
they carried
the 200 markings
kakobrekla: whats
the problem,
the inconsistency of resistors ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
they
tested random units came out
the right value ?
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: no broken kneecaps yet? gotta bring
them
to an "understanding"
