mircea_popescu: mayb someone should
tell him fluffypony was actually looking
to payu someone
to do
this ?
davout: mircea_popescu:
that does count as food
davout: danielpbarron cazalla Apocalyptic
the railzand guy not only has locked
the fork off
topic but seems
to have started a #b-a log digest bitcointalk
thread
mats: you mean
they weren't mining
to begin with?
the horror.
mircea_popescu: impossibru. who outside of cazalla and anyone
thinking could have predicted
this!
BingoBoingo: Huh, GAW stopped mining and difficulty still looks
to be on
the upswing.
mircea_popescu: they'd roast
the vanishingly small african community if
those dudes didn't run so fasty.
BingoBoingo: I
thought beef and not pigs is what
the Argentines roasted
mircea_popescu: they come read you
the meat riot and sedition acts and
then start shooting
mircea_popescu: mod6 it is not legal in argentina
to convene more
than six people outside of
the presence of roasted meat.
mod6: here i was all excited. like "YES PIG ROAST
TIME!!!"
mircea_popescu: not in
the sense of, women. in
the sense of, mindboggling challenges.
ben_vulpes: not only do you intend
to pauperize me but also demoralize
mircea_popescu: hey, i didn't
tell you
to spend all day
typing ruby or w/e you do. boost.
ben_vulpes: man
talk about insider baseball
this shit's not even going
to be proofable against other humans
mod6: oh jeeze. lol. i'd be
terrible at
that.
ben_vulpes: i
think as host you should be c3's
target
mod6: wait... does
this mean a roast of meat? or of personalities?
ben_vulpes: so is it a round robin roastage? everyone roasts in
turn?
cjc: During
the articles critical of G.A.,
the above page was linked
to... along
the way, I discovered
this channel.
mircea_popescu: btw ben_vulpes im
thinking, at first conference dinner... we have roast party ?
cjc: I was on one of
these
Trilema pages earlier
today, but didn't understand what
the Lord of Bitcoins page was all about when I landed
there linked from an article.
cjc: Cool,
thanks -- Mostly, I'm around overnight hours in CST -- as I work 3rd shift.
mircea_popescu: cjc if you're in assbot's wot, you get
to voice yourself. if not, people who are can voice you in half hour chunks.
cjc: How does BingoBoingo work, am I grand a 30 minute one
time voice in
the channel and
then able
to simply lurk?
cjc: I do recall
this article now
that you mention it.
danielpbarron: lol
thestringpuller,
that last frame was me last night :/
cjc: I wouldn't be surprised if it was part of
the issues I experienced with morgan.freenode.net
this year.
cjc: mircea_popescu, I did not apparently catch
the news with regard
to NSA infiltration.
mircea_popescu: there's more
to money
than just getting five
thousand people
to send you
ten bux.
mircea_popescu: there was recently a problem with a nsa infiltration
that's still being "investigated".
cjc: Channel population hasn't changed
too dramatically in
the last decade in #gentoo where I spend most of my
time.
cjc: I do not believe
there would be a problem soliciting donations from users who find
this
the place
to host
their projects and
to meet and
talk with others about
the same.
cjc: Frankly, Freenode would be akin
to one of
the last standing freenets of
the early 90s. If
there was ever a problem with regard
to insufficient support for
the network monetarily --
mircea_popescu: seems
to me kinda drifting without rudder, hoping it won't meet any serious icebergs.
cjc: What are your
thoughts?
cjc: Its not really held up
to
the focus as established, perhaps due
to insufficient moderation or self enforcement.
cjc: We now find many more casual users with a "multi-chat" Facebook
type desire
to use
the network.
cjc: mircea_popescu,
The node I connect
to in Chicago has been down inconveniently quite a bit in 2014, morgan.freenode.net. My observation of #freenode staffer availability in
the past
two months has been it is hit or miss for new users requesting cloaks and such.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo
that is actually
the
theory i've "come up with" myself. << I've accepted
that
the American conditioning
to remove all
the flavors if it isn't explicitly done
to cultivate stupid, continues with stupid accepted as a positive side effect.
mircea_popescu: cjc since you've apparently been around for a while : any merit
to
teh rumous of freenode slowly going
to shit ?
cjc: I've also nabbed
the first/last initials as a nick and grouped
them
too.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo
that is actually
the
theory i've "come up with" myself.
cjc: mircea_popescu,
thank you :)
assbot: How A Bigger Blockchain Is Less Secure And Why Block Size Ain't Gonna Increase Any
Time Soon | Contravex: A blog by Pete Dushenski ... (
http://bit.ly/1zINIRn )
mircea_popescu: cjc read
the logs, linked in
topic.
there's a search function
too.
BingoBoingo: <ben_vulpes> i do so love nasty stinky cheeses << Hypothesis, functionally smarter people prefer cheese with more smell because it indicates
the presence of more, varied catecholamine precursors
the brain craves.
ben_vulpes: cjc:
there's also log.bitcoin-assets.com
cjc: Figured
the discussions herein may be worth my idling.
cjc: Thanks for
the voice -- managed
to discover
this channel while reading an article critical of increasing
the block size.
ben_vulpes: i sent one of
the guys out
to get me a cheese yesterday. "cheddar, sharp, really solid, aged."
BingoBoingo appreciates
that my doubt an edgerouter with 512 MB of RAM could make a Bitcoin node and a week later a serious effort
to make a 128 MB pogoplug is seriously iterating in a productive direction.
thestringpuller: This is gonna be some ride for
the folks back in 3rd class.
thestringpuller: It's like
trying
to replace
the wheels on an old steam engine
that's still running.
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller:
Tell
then
their link doesn't work. A url encased in parenthesis can not be clicked.
thestringpuller: one of
them iirc was "Gavin Proposes Pooping Out New Fork"
mircea_popescu: qntra and derivatives
totally dominates
teh discussion.
mircea_popescu: heh.
the first part is
true, obviously. not so sure about
the 2nd. bitcoin is after all based on drama and lulz.
mircea_popescu: "Now i see. Gavin announced chaos and drama
to
the press because he himself intends
to create it. He gets a 30% veto and still wants
to proceed. It's gonna rip. I just switched
to Litecoin."
mircea_popescu: definitely lost: 22,000 bytes in 250 blocks indirectly lost: 360,903 bytes in 10 blocks possibly lost: 90,514,354 bytes in 256 blocks 115,924,858 bytes in 450,368 blocks <<
this is
the fucking sorriest report, like it's cs 101 over here.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's
trying
to do a chain reorg and failing.
danielpbarron: that's not
the problem;
the script doesn't change directory properly after
the permission error
