decimation: there's this weird dynamic with leftists in the us - they hate the idea that courts treat corporations
as people
cazalla: i imagine it's more about the betting than the game nowadays, they've had sports bet owners masquerading
as commentators in the past, i wouldn't even let my kid watch it if he was old enough to do so
cazalla: BingoBoingo, have not watched league since i was a kid, it's not
as popular
as it once was
mircea_popescu: they got worthless money in infinite supply.
as long
as they follow the crowd they get to keep the shirts.
mircea_popescu: it's the dubious blessing of being raised in a system, that with the safety this entails for
as long
as the system survives comes intermingled the complete cluelessness and inability to survive.
mircea_popescu: and then unwind any asset-protective trade
as "without consideration"
decimation: lol from your 'bitcoin lawyer' link: "Practically, there is no public record of Bitcoin purchases. Bitcoin wallets are similarly anonymous
as Bitcoin balances and transactions are identified only by a digital code with no link to person or place."
BigBitz: twice would have made me
as rich \o/
BigBitz: I could have been half
as rich
as you mircea_popescu ;)
ben_vulpes: to the dylan song, and re centos: "everything must run

BingoBoingo: This thing with steam is you can sandbox it somewhere,
as opposed to iOS
mircea_popescu: maybe i'm not quite
as radical
as pankkake about it, but i defo don't like em.
DreadKnight: mircea_popescu, really find that way stupid
as well; wasn't very excited about steam coming to linux in the first place, but maybe someday SteamOS consoles will be popular, like OUYA was somewhat expected, but until then, steam is an extra layer, just to get more ads and see a ton of "your friend is not playing dota2"
BigBitz: Yeah I saw that
as well...
pete_dushenski: AndreasMAntonopoulos @aantonop "I’ve been asked to appear
as a witness to present information and Q&A at a Canadian Senate hearing on Bitcoin. Should I say yes or not?"

pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: and just
as i was setting up a new @yahoo email account ;)

https://dribbble.com/hemant_gupta99 prolly not this guy, but... dribble ?! /// you might have some respect for dribbble.com, I forget the whole story by now, but it was started by an elitist graphic designer
as an invite-only community meant to prioritize quality. Sorta like a WoTty deviant art. I havent followed it for years tho...
DreadKnight: hushmail was only used to go along with "hush QQ" part (

as well
BingoBoingo: Yeah, So the solution requesting money kickstarter style with... Ads

mircea_popescu: "The fund which received regulator approval from the Isle of Jersey back in back in July and was set to launch this month has joined The Bitcoin Foundation
as a Silver Member."
mircea_popescu:
as far
as i'm concerned, when the luminaries of the previous generation are careful to avoid playing you, more recognition is not really needed. it'll come, of course, but it's moot.
TheNewDeal: no doubt. I think it's a great bet, and a somewhat ballsy one
as well
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: ;;google senior executive service pay << these folk get options. whole different story,
as bubbles happen 3-5 times in a lifetime.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: in that picture you said you could tell who was wifed,
as they weren't displaying lordosis
decimation: that's pretty much the equivalent of breaking windows, replacing them with more expensive (yet worse) windows (heh), and counting the whole project
as a net positive GDP
decimation: asciilifeform:
http://www.nsa.gov/careers/FAQs/index.shtml Below are entry-level salaries (including locality pay) for several different skill fields. (Entry-level is defined
as having a Bachelor's Degree or equivalent work experience.) Language Analysis & Intelligence Analysis $42,209 Computer Science $55,293 * Mathematics $51,894 * Computer/Electrical Engineering $56,375*
decimation: if such people exist, they are probably pretty sad these days, given the point made a few weeks ago about how they would have to live
as paupers
kakobrekla: fyi you can remap any key to act
as a layer switch so have n of different full layouts
lobbes: <mircea_popescu> there should be a new constitutional amendment. "no one may run for elected office, be it presidential,
as member of congress or senate or any other, who can not recite the entirety of all laws, regulations etc" << Does that include all migratory bird treaties?
mircea_popescu: there should be a new constitutional amendment. "no one may run for elected office, be it presidential,
as member of congress or senate or any other, who can not recite the entirety of all laws, regulations etc"
kakobrekla:
As many
as 8,000 Dogecoins, equivalent to $1.42, were lost
as a result of the hack.
mircea_popescu: he has lots of resources
as long
as he uses them a certain way
BigBitz: and he did some last year
as well.
mircea_popescu: it'll be the lulz of all time if 20 years from now google survives
as this grim, unwelcoming steward of usenet archive.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski i know i call lo... from the url bar to go places 10x
as often
as i call google.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski i know i treat teh backdoors
as a right...
pete_dushenski: "Google will begin using website encryption, or HTTPS,
as a ranking signal – a move which should prompt website developers who have dragged their heels on increased security measures" << lulz
ben_vulpes: great thing about new server is that i can run it
as hot
as i want without some virtualization layer going "mmmm, that's a little bit too hot. let's bork your input and ouput for a bit."
pete_dushenski: and mr. ben_vulpes,
as a student of power, you should enjoy this most recent blog post
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski tsar (who ruled by divine right) govt (which HAD the authority to exist
as a merely regulatory body) made a leninlicense.
mircea_popescu: just
as well one could argue they don't have the means.
mircea_popescu: the us may only exist
as a LAWFUL body, not
as merely a regulatory body.
mircea_popescu: it attaches to the named. temujin had a wife
as an unborn ?
assbot: postfix - Sending on behalf of with authorized email
as envelope but from email to be client email - Server Fault
mike_c: it is chugging along. few hundred views. no banning yet,
as no forum moderrators have been told to fuck off.
mircea_popescu: so what i wish to know is, anyone left on the internet that didn't shitlist mcdlv.net
as far
as stmp is concerned ?
mircea_popescu: "We’ve completed our investigation of your unauthorized payment claim.
As the payment was sent
as part of a billing agreement, it is considered to be an authorized payment. However,
as a courtesy to you, we have issued you a refund for this transaction."
BigBitz: Their point is around the inability to confirm the data
as HOLD won't share/release it.
BingoBoingo: Dr. K had a problem. How to put his writing in front of
as many people
as possible. Maybe the reign of terror was more a tool to that end than the writing a tool to jsutify the terror.
cazalla: although none sustained a reign of terror for
as long
as ted did
BingoBoingo: cazalla: You have to remember that pre-Internet trolling wasn't
as viable outlet for dissent
as it is now.
BingoBoingo: cazalla: Or
as you may refer to him Dr. Kaczynski
thickasthieves: i dont think bitpay cares about TBF beyond it's ability to serve
as a tool to its own ends
BingoBoingo: Prolly that. Also apparently CoinBase does that Bits garbage now
as well
pankkake: but
as the article notes, namecoin actually achieves that for domain names
fluffypony:
as long
as you get your kerning right you're home free
fluffypony: not only that, but if you're on the same wifi
as a user you can just poison their arp cache so you can mitm, sslstrip, and voila
pete_dushenski: "What sort of day have sort of day have you, had..., dear?" she asked querulously. Khan looked up briefly, wearily. "Oh, same
as usual," he said, "violent."
mircea_popescu: what are the odds that someone cracked a good joke/compliment jsut
as the flash went off ?
decimation: after all,
as I recall the ANC would necklace anyone who got "overly aggressive" in cooperating with whitey
mircea_popescu: fluffypony the concept boggles me. "overly" aggresive ?
as in what, there's an appropriate level of aggresive ?
mircea_popescu: fluffypony you know that strikes me
as a very charitable read.
fluffypony: they have "struggle credentials" still going for them (
as in they fought Apartheid)
decimation: this will only make bitcoin look better of course,
as each government reduces its fiat to another altcoin (premined of course)
decimation:
as this blog points out, the real reason they are doing this is to bar another escape hatch from the bezzle economy
RebeccaBitcoin: Before this conversation got out of hand, i was mainly referring to the ability of this site to generate a random wallet. I've read before that mouse entropy is crap. While there are 2892383289 ^298289 possible private keys for Bitcoin, a wallet like this might be much more limited.
As such, a system like this might only be capable of generating a

as moving your mouse around
peterl: does having a python script generate a bunch of random dice rolls count
as rolling dice?

assbot: 'Batman v. Superman' Moved Up More Than a Month
as Warner Bros. Plots Their Superhero Schedule to 2020 | I Watch Stuff
fluffypony: "My expectation: Just like any dot-com era VC funding scam. They have created impossible expectations in the mindes of the money people who will end up controlling them. They will run in different directions at once, chasing blue sky, have a series of management changes, blow a lot of money on tiki bars and conference splashes. The layoffs will start about the same time
as the death march starts. Goals will be scaled down ad hoc to things
mircea_popescu: "it is like lubrication to intellectual fucking, except
as part of masturbation"
TomServo: Ethereum has been described by core developers
as oil to Bitcoin's gold.
mircea_popescu: thickasthieves you know these were famous
as evil shit back in romanian days.
