undata: jurov: I would say maybe leaving behind business contacts has a cost, but the internet solves that.
undata: asciilifeform: yep, or that.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> mod6: me too, that threw me off. but maybe i did something silly with the install by creating a root account? i'm not super clued on deb... but it asked me to make a root account first, then a user account. so that was kinda bizzare to me. << no that's how debian did it for what, 10, 15 years ? << I thought it was just Ubuntu that only made a user account they'd turn into a super sudoer
mircea_popescu: i think the bar for thai citizenship is having sex with a trannie
undata: sadly I'm two steps removed
asciilifeform: i've been informed that the usual excursions where people take pregnant women to usa, have reversed.
mircea_popescu: us citizens on army bases routinely get dual citizenship kids if they become pregnant and deliver
mircea_popescu: pretty much everyone, really. germany definitely, if you were born there.
mircea_popescu: jurov jews are similar. romania too.
jurov: *Great Hungary to label the delusion properly
asciilifeform: ireland, i think, too
jurov: only hungary does not need to fear such swamping can do "if you had ancestors in Big Hungary 100yr ago, here's your passport"
asciilifeform: at any rate, even if herr putin mailed me a ru passport as perverse birthday present, fat lot of good that would do. need a lot more than a passport to leave the 'big zone.'
asciilifeform: it was still swamped, against rules, and the people who did the swamping accounted for a large fraction of the bums which appeared during collapse
mircea_popescu: mod6: me too, that threw me off. but maybe i did something silly with the install by creating a root account? i'm not super clued on deb... but it asked me to make a root account first, then a user account. so that was kinda bizzare to me. << no that's how debian did it for what, 10, 15 years ?

pete_dushenski: i'm off to watch grown ass men with skates chase a black disk around a frozen pond. enjoy your eve b-a!
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu "either you renounce ALL your laws or we burn you to the ground." << now here's a radical concept. probably the same one that was invoked at parliament hill today
mircea_popescu: you were born there. what more ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: but you were born in odessa ? then you do have ru citizenship no? << lol! the whole city would've emptied in '92 or even earlier, if this were so.
mircea_popescu: i forget what this is called in us politics, but o yeah, "splitting the vote"
mircea_popescu: so as to create the illusion that there's no actual support for simple stuff like "either you renounce ALL your laws or we burn you to the ground."
mircea_popescu: othernubs`: i thought medium was the sort of site where literally anyone can publish? <<< medium is, essentially, the sort of venue created to give the impression of a #b-a to the 99% idiots who can't tell the difference.
undata: US culture is as ready to kill itself as the rest of the world is to help it do so.
undata: mircea_popescu: that's that suicidal streak I was talking about
mircea_popescu: it certainly couldn't be because the world sucks, right ?
mircea_popescu: year, really, i wonder why the fuck is it that the best kids that the us can produce want to go help isis burn the whole world.
mircea_popescu: undata the same obnoxious farts that create this "passport" that means no rights are also wondering why even a teenager if she has any sense wants to bomb them off the planet.
mircea_popescu: apparently you can void passports for truancy now, in the bestest america.
mircea_popescu: these are the generation leaders.
mircea_popescu: "Three Colorado high school students may have been playing hooky so they could run away and join ISIS — apparently seduced by their twisted campaign of terror and hatred. The girls, ages 15, 16 and 17, never showed up to their Denver-area school on Friday because they were en route to Turkey via Germany," <<< much better chicks than any "feminist" or w/e.
mircea_popescu: bounce: I don't care if maladjusted angry youths want to run away and make trouble in a war zone. I do care if they come back, recruit some more kids (to do the same), cause trouble, shoot some jews, what have you. << how else do you expect the shithole to be fixed ?
mircea_popescu: france is dead, notjust ot them, to everyone.
BingoBoingo: Nah, they are just aping the us like the monkeys those frogs really are
mircea_popescu: bounce: announce that loud and clear and everybody knows what the score is. "if you want to go there, you're dead to us." << it won't work.
BingoBoingo: After that we just need a few super mutants and then New Reno
mircea_popescu: chetty incidentally, the french are also building their own gulag, huh
BingoBoingo: "Data Center that can't be disconnected" from a safe range
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo a yes, the $900k coin!
mircea_popescu: jurov: wtf is "individual terrorist undertaking"? << basically, what you're doing here.
BingoBoingo: Paying one's own ransom as a protocol probably won't be perfected though until assbot's level 1 consists entirely of nuclear powers.
BingoBoingo: Has wallet encryption. You can "given them your last penny" to the extent they can see it...
mircea_popescu: i might review what this guy has to say sometime in 21xx, maybe.

pete_dushenski: ^first link is for ft, second to photograb
assbot: I was wondering when the rockstar economist Thomas Piketty would enter the climate debate... http://t.co/V2aOWzwWPQ http://t.co/vpt4SBE2w9
bounce: another interesting task: figure out what the db really needs to be doing then find well-tested code that can do it
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Sort of thing you might use on a netbook with just enough BTC to pay your own ransom
mircea_popescu: http://www.nhplace.com/kent/index.html << check out kent pitman allll over salon.com with the "global warming" thingee
BingoBoingo: It's more private than using electrum on a public server, but far from using an actual client
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: It's a java turd. I holds keys with decreasing amounts of funds and handles a few adresses funds might still come to.
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo the only interesting one you're missing out on is "#181. Improved build to check dependencies using Gary's dependency checker." lol

pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo MultiBit Version 0.5.11 Changes + Implemented issue 96 - Sign and Verify message. << that's it!
jurov: okay i see, there's lot of new code not properly reviewed
BingoBoingo: Leveldb google turd does actually seem to be higher performance than the BDB oracle turd, but... yes consequences.
mircea_popescu: the fact that we survived does not mean they didn't try.
mircea_popescu: leveldb in and of itself is whatever, maybe not the first choice for a db. leveldb as implemented by hearn was an attack on bitcoin.
BingoBoingo: nubbins`: Honestly, prolly best to remain greyscal friendly
mircea_popescu: supposedly this was accidental. i never bought it.
mircea_popescu: leveldb / poorly understood / not tested new code caused a fork
BingoBoingo: nubbins`: The idea I floated last week was purple and orange, but cazalla reminded me colorblindness is a thing.
mircea_popescu: jurov the major code reorg that caused a fork. factual.
BingoBoingo: Superstitious in itself is not ideal, but... Hearn did trigger a hardfork...
jurov: seems rather superstitious to me... but yes, starting at 0.5 and adding new stuff only after review is a plan
BingoBoingo: jurov: I think the evil is simply the distance + proximity to Hearn
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Well I use 0.5.11 because it is what still lets me use higher than pennies tx fees
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo ok. so up to what version of multibit are we talking here?
BingoBoingo: Also as I said last night, running the occasional 0.8.x node is polite...
pete_dushenski: so i'm guessing no spv will work on the bitcoin i ? so no more multibit?
BingoBoingo: jurov: But this is trollbox
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: That is the literal reading of the Thermos bitcoin wiki definition of softfork
jurov: and trollbox!!!1
jurov: nubbins` an idea: what about making the Q more like opinion bubble?
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: No, that they prevent people using newer software from making or recognizing certain transactions.
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo that b-a is behind them?

BingoBoingo: So... anyone spot the new qntra design++ yet?
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform:ditch the fractional versions. 1, 2, 3, infinity. natural numbers. << except we use.... roman numerals.

mircea_popescu: "The HTTPAuthorized function in bitcoinrpc.cpp in bitcoind 0.8.1 provides information about authentication failure upon detecting the first incorrect byte of a password, which makes it easier for remote attackers to determine passwords via a timing side-channel attack."
mircea_popescu: quite. mp still recalls the profusely apologetic "we fucked up the init and consequently ppl got pwned" stuff coming out of the chief scientists
