mircea_popescu: "my solution for fixing
this guy's liver is
to dispense with
the guy"
mircea_popescu: well if
that's how you're going
to go about it, how about running deathtrack in an emulator while linux handles bitcoin and call it a msdos bitcoind ?
mircea_popescu: you do, yes, inasmuch as afaik it's compiled on 16 bit with a bunch of strange as what's maxint. won't even be able
to reference half
the arrays becayse
they smash various stacks
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what sonny, you're
too good for volume swaps ?
mircea_popescu: wasn't exactly "designed from
the ground up with portability in mind"
mircea_popescu: kinda my point. bitcoind makes a bunch of assumptions about what it can do
to
the internet
bounce: dos can
talk ethernet, see "crynwr" packet drivers for one.
pete_dushenski: following footnote added
to "the node guide": Disclaimer!
This Guide sets up
the latest version of bitcoind, which is obviously a piece of fucking Bitcoin Fundation shit on a stick.
This Guide will be updated with instructions on setting up bitcoind 0.6-0.7 asap.

mircea_popescu: tbh
the msdos stack bug carnival + bitcoin bug carnival would be one sad hell.
mircea_popescu: ;;later
tell pankkake hey listen, how much would you want
to compile and sign a bunch of code ? specifically eulora codebase and proper bitcoind (.6-.7 versions) ? gentoo and whatever else you can stomach.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: ketchup is fine. just have
to have a little direction :)
mircea_popescu: anyone want
to do a bunch of compiling and sign stuff ?
mircea_popescu: but actually his is a legitimate request. i guess im adding
this
to
the "wanted maintainer for eulora binaries"
thing : wanted maintainer for bitcoin binaries.
mircea_popescu: i guess it's an interesting question, "what's
the new guy
to do". bunch of playing catchup it seems
mircea_popescu: generally
the people involved in bitcoin
to
this level kinda have
the history, and a complete file of historical versions and so on.
pete_dushenski: the instructions in my "guide" definitely need improvement. currently point people
towards latest bitcoind
mircea_popescu: well you get
the code off
the repository and compile it
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: and where might i find
the scripts for
this?
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform:
this i know! any suggestions for how
to remedy
this??
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski you really should know better
than
taking bitcoin "foundation" shit at face value yo.
Apocalyptic: as
these only publish publicly reachable nodes
Apocalyptic: <pete_dushenski>
there are now less
than 7000 active nodes :( // I don't know where you're getting your data from, but if it's solely based on
https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/ it's wrong
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: so it
turns out deedbot got haxed. << preventing
this was only $1200/mo indefinitely ;)
pete_dushenski: i also managed
to sort out
the errors i was encountering in debian.
pete_dushenski: so i riffed off pankkake's node
tutorial and inserted a few more instructions
thickasthieves: i suppose it's possible for bitcoin
to be worth more
than all
the
transactable equity in
the world
ben_vulpes: "don't denominate
the btc in usd, and vice versa"

RagnarDanneskjol: yea good
times. punkman says he's making progress on a pyth version
kakobrekla: <mircea_popescu> so it

thickasthieves: curated is like saying
they
take responsibility for 3rd part listings, but not
bounce: why does one need a million
to start an exchange?
bounce: well,
that's something. IMO a blacklist on actors in
the system is still entirely
the wrong
thing
to even have. if you want
to filter "abusive"
txes you'd have
to have some objective measure and preferrably a deterministic detection algorithm of abusiveness.

mircea_popescu: lmao. dude... anyone can do
that. including
the derp writing
the report.
mircea_popescu: if you're
the sort of gentoo/linux/foss user
that downloads and runs buggy pieces of shit, you're expected
to either a) be conversant in code and fix em or else b) not run production.
bounce: well, at least someone
thought up a nice logo for bitcoind-ljr.
Luke-Jr: thickasthieves:
the default in gentoo is for highly
technical users
to judge;
the reference code is for developers
to read
mircea_popescu: none of
this is remarkable, but in fact functioning as intended.
mircea_popescu: look, it's really simple. gentoo doesn't give a shit about bitcoin, it's yet another crackpot app as far as
they're concerned. at some internal review it was determined it's much
too buggy
to be in main, and so it got put wherever
they put retarded shit, and put someone in charge of it, in
this case luke.
the someone in charge is doing weird shit
to it, as you'd expect of someone in charge of a buggy piece of shit not
Luke-Jr: thickasthieves:
the reference code is a
thing
Luke-Jr: bounce: and we wouldn't want
to *force* it on anyone
bounce: then
that's still no argument. also you're not answering
the question.
Luke-Jr: I don't have
that exact number.
thickasthieves: ok how many people using
the bitcoin wallet in gentoo would blindly use
this default
mircea_popescu: as per usual, reddit makes a mess of
things.
they're like
ten year olds,
those people. "o did you hear sugar kills ? sure, it killed sam's dog!"
bounce: turns out it ended up as
the default option, so
that's one argument down
the drain.
Luke-Jr: because we can just apply
the patch or not
Luke-Jr: bounce: it's better
than nothing, until we have a better spam filter implementation
mircea_popescu: in fact, anyone with
the werewithal
to boycott as much as a donut stand can just as well patch out whatever.
