mircea_popescu: incredible,
that guy. he's been doing 10bux
trades with noobs for what, 3-4 years ? all paypal. he must be married
to
thiel or something.
nubbins`: and with noobs asking
to buy $10 btc with ppusd
mircea_popescu: i was in otc before
that. and back in 2011/2012, -otc was pretty much like here.
nubbins`: april 2012,
that predates me by maybe 7 months
bounce: also, git allows for generation of patches
that're relatively easy
to send over a ml
then feed'em back
to git.
bounce: <asciilifeform> which miners contain ftdi ? << no idea, but it wouldn't surprise me if
the
typical USB miner's USB interface is exactly
that.
then again, maybe best leave
that
to miner programs.
mircea_popescu: **** BEGIN LOGGING AT
Thu Apr 12 23:03:54 2012 << my first mention.
mircea_popescu: thing of it
the good way :
that much less log
to read.
TheNewDeal: but
they will remain mythical in my mind
TheNewDeal: someone once sent me a
text file of
the SD ipo
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well it was still around 10kiloBTC pizza
time
TheNewDeal: going
to need a meme for
this. It's not in
the logs?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo well honestly, back around .3.x
the atmosphere was quite different. i dunno who or why would not patch when satoshi said patch.
kakobrekla: TheNewDeal idk
there were several efforts made so far in
that direction by various entities and i dont
think anything came out of it
nubbins`: "follow
the bit of
the crypto coins"
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: it was
the sort of mandate
that only Satoshi or what USgavin wishes he was could push
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo now
that you mention it im vaguely remembering
this
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
The story if I recall correctly was Satoshi said upgrade nao, and
then later
told everyone
the patched vulnerability in pay
to ip
mircea_popescu: am i entirely off base in my belief
the habbo hotel
thing is pretty much
the last remaining, well known and well advertised child porn marketplace online ?
nubbins`: you will regret scrolling
to
the bottom
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu> oh, also i nthe stupid pile :
there used
to exist a way
to send coins by ip. it was a no-verification "tell me an address" special message. << killed in 0.3.x series. one of Satoshis later acts
TheNewDeal: kakobrekla has anything come of
the pre-log logs allegedly held by Azelphur?
cazalla: and with
that, i'm off
to beach for a little
mircea_popescu: oh, also i nthe stupid pile :
there used
to exist a way
to send coins by ip. it was a no-verification "tell me an address" special message.
nubbins`: i hope
there'll still be enough
to fill a book ;/
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i don't
think anyone made it
to market ? i
think just plans for.
mircea_popescu: also, at least at some point
there was explicit
tor support in
the code
assbot: Coinbase is in
trouble... but it's
their own damn fault. : Bitcoin
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> also, was
there a special command line
thing
to add ips ? connect and addnode persist in newer iterations
bounce: then you'll just have
to wait for
the book
mircea_popescu: also, was
there a special command line
thing
to add ips ?
gribble: Chaaaang-Noi was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 1 year, 11 weeks, 4 days, 9 hours, 29 minutes, and 38 seconds ago: <Chaaaang-Noi> either never have
time, or not have money....
mircea_popescu: set
this
to 0 so
that accidentally overloks it, it's written by drunk geese.
mircea_popescu: it's nothing but add a week of
this, substract 51 minutes of
that, madness.
mircea_popescu: and btw, someone has
to fix all
the fucking magic number fest in
the node discovery mechanism
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> bounce: why would you dream of running bitcoin under winblows? << I imagine people may want
to run relay nodes on Win for variety.
nubbins`: <+asciilifeform> does anyone give a rat's arse about builds other
than 'unix' ? <<< makefile.osx is a steaming shit heap in 0.5.3 anyway. i'll offer a working one in
the future if
there's demand
bounce: though if you're going
to
toss qt
then perhaps
there's a case
to drop
the whole windows
thing
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
think about it,
they're prolly running pirated windows,
too.
bounce doesn't dream of
that, but people do
that stuff
bounce: the windows build is a mingw build, no? kinda useful
to be able
to build
that from linux
mircea_popescu: certainly not outside
the capabilities of
the us, and a fine reason why stock bitcoin is not safe anyway.
mircea_popescu: incidentally,
the node discovery mechanism is a fucking hole of
the first degree. all an attacker really needs
to do is
take control of
the "last resort" ips and
then supress "normal" peer discovery.
mircea_popescu: course at some point it had a bug where it kept a hash of
the signature and so you could change
the message around if you had an older key.
midnightmagic: hrm.
there might be a k-of-n
threshold split key now, it would make sense.
midnightmagic: the key is held by gavin. satoshi still has it. i don't know who else. I don't
think anyone else.
bounce: oh, nag people. oh well. guess I'll have
to keep at it here
then.
bounce: you need a keykeeper? what's
the key do?
Apocalyptic: I've read from many sources
thermos has it, but it could be wrong
joecool: "12
things you might be doing wrong with your bitcoin"
Apocalyptic: there is
thermos and a
third fellow i forgot
mircea_popescu: that emergency messaging
thing was more of a "let's bake a p2p messaging app into
the core because you don't know what will happen and it may be needed."
mircea_popescu: a lot of questions i can answer atm i couldn't even properly form in 2011, and im sure im not
the only one.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform a lot of
this stuff is you know, "just in case"isms driven by
the fact
that a few years ago bitcoin was entirely a novel concept.
