PeterL: You might be thinking of Down's Syndrome, that has a higher occurrence in older mothers
PeterL: ben_vulpes: my nephew is the oldest in his family, has autism but younger siblings don't
ben_vulpes: it's a statistical thing.
ben_vulpes: <decimation> I would bet that if you asked the parents of the non-vaccinated, they would say that they want to 'prevent autism' << isn't the best way to achieve this to have kids while the womb in question is young, flexible and healthy and the sperms ibid?
pete_dushenski: putting on boots is faster than tanning ?
thestringpuller: JBossBitcoin makes me think of webstack using JBoss to run bitcoin stuff
pete_dushenski: ^for everyone with a twitter acct ;)
pete_dushenski: "Be sure to tweet with #JBossBitcoin during tomorrow's race! We hope that #NASCAR & #bitcoin fans can get behind #54. "
ben_vulpes: <BingoBoingo> [] decimation> that should be the bar for voting - if you don't have your $185k, you can't vote, because you are literally a bum << Maybe there should be trophies for certain people who inflicted directly and personally more than that damage on the fiat system without being politicos? << most offensive thing about being born here is how one's effectively born into slavery for others obligations.
pete_dushenski: the moat is too deep
pete_dushenski: thestringpuller: scoopbot cannot penetrate the fortress that is contravex
thestringpuller: aight. i'll give that a try. ordering a pogo soon.
danielpbarron: see if you can do it from debian; you just need the cross compiler
assbot: Bankers aren’t the bad guys. | Contravex: A blog by Pete Dushenski ... ( http://bit.ly/1Br1FDw )
thestringpuller: danielpbarron: i may setup a gentoo machine just to make a pogo
danielpbarron: ;;later tell asciilifeform http://danielpbarron.com/pogo/ << so far just some notes and what i think is your specification; corrections and suggestions welcome

danielpbarron: yeah that's why i specified CT; i'd wager it's a lot less fungible in oklahoma
thestringpuller: dunno how they are able to keep up with demand given...snow and stuff
danielpbarron: in CT, cannabis is way more fungible than silver; just trade it before it goes bad :p
thestringpuller: cannabis is perishable tho
BingoBoingo: cannabis and silver are largely the same thing monetarily, inflation a huge problem. Gold less so. Bitcoin far less so.
danielpbarron: it's practically the same thing
NewLiberty: But having minted a fair share of silver, I have some opinions on the use of "dollar" as that paper drek
danielpbarron: if you mean that, start here: http://www.contravex.com/2014/03/17/irc-yeshiva/
NewLiberty: I'm not here to teach, more to learn.
danielpbarron: and stop trying to teach us new terms; we don't care that you prefer 'xbt' to 'btc' or that a dollar used to mean silver
NewLiberty: A made to fail ponzi
danielpbarron: that is true, because gavin has nothing to do with bitcoin
NewLiberty: "bitcoin will kill the dollar"
danielpbarron: what are you trying to say?
NewLiberty: But the word is not what is commonly referred to as a dollar
NewLiberty: though some think so
NewLiberty: Did he say that?
NewLiberty: He wants to be a chief scientist, I can help him understand what that entails
danielpbarron: the "problem" gavin is trying to solve is "bitcoin will kill the dollar"
NewLiberty: I give the benefit of the doubt, most don't control where they are born
pete_dushenski: gavin is no more a scientist than mr. dress-up
danielpbarron: no, it's a USG approach to a non-problem
pete_dushenski: how do you figure what they call themselves has any bearing on their function ?
NewLiberty: The current proposal is a software engineering approach to a science problem
BingoBoingo amused that no one talking atm seems to realize how "old" NewLiberty is
NewLiberty: I am advocating that "chief scientists" at least be scientists and not engineers
danielpbarron: yeah, and if you can currently afford fees, you should always be able to
pete_dushenski: right now you're saying 'just the tip'
pete_dushenski: NewLiberty: that's all well and good but you still need to justify any increase in block size
NewLiberty: "If this forks as currently proposed, I'll be selling all my BTC on Gavin's fork and mining on the other. I suspect I will not be the only one."
assbot: Increasing the block size is a good idea; 50%/year is probably too aggressive ... ( http://bit.ly/1Lf0uXV )
danielpbarron: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=122404;sa=showPosts << NewLiberty's forum posts for those not familiar with this fellow
pete_dushenski: wondering if ross j anderson is in the right direction...
pete_dushenski: ;;later tell asciilifeform could you recommend a book that would serve as an 'amateur's intro to digital security' ?
NewLiberty: I use bitcoin in commerce, and yes, would rather not have to outbid folks to get my transaction in
assbot: Successfully added a rating of -1 for NewLiberty with note: He think's a hard-fork is, and I quote: acceptable for expediency's sake.
NewLiberty: Did you know that Schneier lost his executive position because of praise he gave Snowden?
pete_dushenski: i just couldn't recall if there was a line in the sand
pete_dushenski: jurov: if the cc fraudsters who pwned maison de btc are any indication, i'm sure mike_c can jump that hurdle
mike_c: jurov: yeah, the ones i am looking at don't require that. eurodns is offering them for sale, I have just never heard of them.
assbot: Why I suspect Schneier is an US agent. pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1LeXsCY )
danielpbarron: pete_dushenski, you haven't seen this? -> http://trilema.com/2013/why-i-suspect-schneier-is-an-us-agent/
pete_dushenski: wondering when he "went mole" so i can spare myself reading anything thereafter
jurov: mike_c: obscure european TLDs usually require proof of residence in that country, or at least in EU
BingoBoingo: I'm concerned by the lack of names
assbot: Devuan - the GNU/Linux by Veteran Unix Admins. ... ( http://bit.ly/1LeWW85 )
pete_dushenski: also looks like debian is getting forked into systemd-less "devuan" sometime this year

pete_dushenski: tick, tock..
pete_dushenski still has yet to play with much other than debian on vps for node
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: It seems a variety of places. It isn't the biggest spike, but it definitely is one.
thestringpuller: BingoBoingo: where did that traffic come from?
pete_dushenski: do you run them both atm ?
BingoBoingo: Gentoo depends entirely on how you decide to build and use it.
pete_dushenski: speaking of asciilifeform's piece, is it fair to assume that other unix-likes include debian and osx ? what of gentoo ?
assbot: Qntra.net Traffic and Demographic Statistics by Quantcast ... ( http://bit.ly/1LeTElh )
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Looks like you induced some measure of a traffic spike. https://www.quantcast.com/qntra.net New links to your likbez keep emerging.
mike_c: decimation:http://stampd.io/ << someone made a silly-con valley-ized deedbot << yeah, and you have to pay for it with.. paypal!
mike_c: anybody ever use https://www.eurodns.com? i'm trying to get some obscure country domain names.
lobbes is orgiginally from MA. Was amused by the abundance of Jesus billboards and anti-abortion propaganda littering the sides of roads
lobbes: BingoBoingo: Weather here in the Middle West is nothing if not inconsistent << whereabouts are you? Ohio-bound over here.
BingoBoingo: Also looking forward to the buyer's remorse this next US election cycle when everyone gets to see that of the two Bush brothers the dumber, less capable one actually was President for 8 years.
BingoBoingo: Weather here in the Middle West is nothing if not inconsistent
BingoBoingo: It's under 0 degrees F here atm. Two weeks ago the high was over 60 degrees F.
chetty: too bad I can't share some of our summer heat, but actually this morning its very cool and pleasant
BingoBoingo: One day I wanted to take the hajj to Florida to watch the spring training games. At the moment though it is a reminder it will eventually stop being balls cold.
chetty: Spring Training was a big deal when I was growing up, it amounted to free major league games :)
BingoBoingo: In other news today Pitchers and Catchers report to Spring Training. Baseball season is almost upon us.
brendafdez: hah, I linked to the shadow foundation on a mailing list and a facebook group recently, but it falls on deaf ears
chetty: join the real one :P
brendafdez: if I say not at all, it's like I didn0t make it in their eyes, im missing out on being part of the foundation
BingoBoingo: brendafdez: Just say you are liking the shadow foundation more lately
brendafdez: and they are convince the "president of the Argentine Bitcoin Foundation" really matters. It's amusing that said foundation doesn't even exist. But I get asked all the time if i'm part of it, they take me more seriously when I say yes xD
BingoBoingo: You just have to remember that New York has become more third world than even Nuevo Laredo. They don't even has cash in New York anymore.
BingoBoingo: Sounds a lot like how they covered the rebellion in North St Louis
brendafdez: they love anything that can be portrayed in a bad light as the shady things that happen in this third world country. Like using bitcoin to avoid selling the usd to the government and then selling the bitcoins in the street
brendafdez: we're meeting now in an hour at a local 'Subway' and then they are coming with me seeing how people buy and sell bitcoins for stacks of cash, which always amuses them, they love seeing the 'stakcks of cash', which is not uncommon here with the largest denomination bill being 8 USD
BingoBoingo: brendafdez: Of course they would take you most seriously if you mention it. Their political officer is definitely aware of qntra.
chetty: now that would indeed be a super cool event, I'll buy the lunch if you pull that off
brendafdez: they won't mention it as anything other than a website from 1993, it's above their head, they only realize it when it's too late. They wouldn't take me srlsly if i show them that xD
BingoBoingo: brendafdez: I will be very grateful if you get them to mention the great multinational journalism venture qntra which is eating their lunch on the Bitcoin subject, and they follow through by mentioning it in their piece.
BingoBoingo: brendafdez: It will probably ingratiate you to no end with the NYtimes people if you point out that noone in Argentina seems as dangerous as that NYPD street gang
chetty: lmao, I get a whole new set of smiles everytime someone links that one :D
