tired of living? << from what i gather a little bit of epidemic doesn't look so bad up

the country outta recession.
mircea_popescu: he's almost ninjashogun level,
the way he goes everywhere,
trying a pass or

Time Soon | Contravex: A blog by Pete Dushenski
mircea_popescu: thickasthieves: excuse my ignorance, but cant
the node cost problem be solved simply by running pay-node businesses? << zipf problem.
mircea_popescu: Daniel_Krawisz: Me neither. I would rather see
the block size go up. If
that creates a crisis of not enough full notes,
then people are going
to do something about
that pretty quick I'd guess. <<< yeah, sure
they will. specifically, sink
the bitcoin lite resulting from
the fork and sticking
to
the original.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla: i really
trust him with 6 but motherfucker is already leading. << bwahahaha WAY AHEAD

the recipient's age, going down for one minute may be all it
takes.
decimation: princessnell: how goes
the blogging
these days?
decimation: as I wrote yesterday, one can always write a script
to explore /sys/ if one wishes
to understand how
their devices are laid out
dub: bit me hard back when rolling my own routers made sense, suddenly no way
to predict which if was what on boot
decimation: so eudev restores
the sane default of eth#
dub: ah yes, udev was
the
thing
decimation: that being said, I agree
that init.d has way more miles
than whatever craziness poettering is pushing
decimation: my point being
that bash's shaky foundation has recently been revealed
decimation: asciilifeform: I was going
to make
this point yesterday: you drive a stake in
the heart of systemd because you prefer... bash?
decimation: republicans quell dissent by speaking against further handouts in public and in private slowrolling/diverting handouts
to
their own feeble interests
TheNewDeal: decimation , many conservatives do
this as well
decimation: democrats attempt
to get more free stuff from productive people
to
their interested constituencies
decimation: actually
the democrats/republicans are quite distinguishable and serve different purposes
TheNewDeal: I do agree with
the US being a one party
though
decimation: it's just
that
the parties
to which
those labels are applied rarely act in any other way
than
the status quo
TheNewDeal: not ideal, but
they at least serve some purpose
dub: liberal and conservate don't mean anything more
than libertarian does
decimation: Mr. Hand also guides
the opposition into safe pasture
dub: you have a Guiding Hand whose system elects
temporary emperors in a way designed
to obfuscate it from
the herd
dub: decimation: I don't really consider
teh US as having a political system
mats_cd03: call me when you get him
to
trade
the patty for gluten
TheNewDeal: but
then again
the salads at most places in
the US aren't even healthy
themselves. Covered with cheese,
think mayo based "dressing," and a bunch of crutons
TheNewDeal: Speaking of which, I was eating a salad in front of a colleague, and he decided
to be healthy he was going
to not eat
the bun on his burger
mats_cd03: well its not like youll get america
to eat salad instead of burgers
mats_cd03: public health policy in
the us is good enough
to handle ebola
assbot: Disaster in
the South Pacific « Isegoria
decimation: dub: assets is gop sponsored chan << quote from gigantic comment
thread in
the red/blue post: "You shouldn’t be worried more people of
the Red
Tribe will start voting for Republicans, Republicans are your best friends,
they pacify
the Red
Tribe. You should be worried when
they stop voting Republican and your civil society fractures."
decimation: asciilifeform: it's more important
to cater
to democrat votebanks
than
to protect
the general population from ebola
assbot: Why hasn’t
the U.S. closed its airports
to
travelers from Ebola-ravaged countries? -

the net
thickasthieves: but you dont need
to fork bitcoin or whatever
to do it
DanielKrawisz: Yeah, nodes should be able
to use micropayments
to charge one another for data.
thickasthieves: i kinda wonder if
this might be an actual use for an altcoin
though

Daniel_Krawisz: I logged in with
the wrong name accidentally. It should be DanielKrawisz
Daniel_Krawisz: Me neither. I would rather see
the block size go up. If
that creates a crisis of not enough full notes,
then people are going
to do something about
that pretty quick I'd guess.
Daniel_Krawisz: Oh, ok. Yeah, something needs
to be done about
that but I
think it's a solvable problem.
thickasthieves: it's ever-increasing, increased
the burden on nodes, and places pressure on
the one leg of bitcoin
that isnt properly compensated
Daniel_Krawisz: So I'm curious as
to why mircea_popescu has been saying
that an increased block size is a security problem. What's
the issue here? (sorry, I suck at spelling)
