strtp`fndr: thanks, BingoBoingo (nothing to say).
mircea_popescu: you're gonna troll them now aren't you.
mircea_popescu: http://dpaste.com/206JR1H << check out this wonder, kid wants to mine, his miner is software.
BingoBoingo: Yeah, I'm narrowing down to 1.8.x to 3.0.x
BingoBoingo: I'm still looking for the right old WordPress version to chop on
mircea_popescu: software that's worth changing ain't worth running in the first place.
mircea_popescu: i have boxes still running the same shit a decade later.
mircea_popescu: i've been using the same wordpress for trilema for 6 years now.
mircea_popescu: look at that, #bitaffnet
assbot: Interesting, got another forwarded email from "satoshi", from 2011 - indicates this was a hijacked account, not expired and re-registered.
BingoBoingo: justusranvier: But a private electrum server is so easy, and less disk space than Armory
justusranvier: BingoBoingo: Electrum's GUI for offline transaction signing sucks, and by default it uses other people's Electrum servers which means you have no privacy.
mircea_popescu: all these schmucks have fiat to spend on outbidding each other on google ? and lemme guess, they're all first best largest ?
BingoBoingo: Electrum seems to do most of the Armory stuff without the part where it is such obvious shit.
X-Rob: mircea_popescu: btw, thank you.
justusranvier: I keep it heavily sandboxed into a virtual machine though
justusranvier: I still run bitcoind because it's the only way to make Armory work.
assbot: Mum Tries Out TempleOS 1.06 (2013) - YouTube
mircea_popescu: why, because literally nobody runs the code anymore or what
mircea_popescu: <justusranvier> Maybe the reason they are unhappy about bitcoin-security being public is because it reveals there's an unfixed memory leak in bitcoind right now. << this needed like revealing and anything
asciilifeform: of all the things that have been written about 'satoshi' - not one is simultaneously interesting and provable.
BingoBoingo: You'd think this news would get people diversifying into Altcoin
asciilifeform: reason... unfixed << or this - http://pastebin.com/CZ61FQY4
justusranvier: Maybe the reason they are unhappy about bitcoin-security being public is because it reveals there's an unfixed memory leak in bitcoind right now.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Because if 500 wanna be satoshi trolls control satoshi email, but not keys. Myth-Man becomes Myth
asciilifeform: no evidence that, e.g., loch ness monster.
asciilifeform doesn't grasp why the supposed satoshi thing is exciting
BingoBoingo: Better US treasury exit address: 1LvCuntsJyFFQsLuJhBXBPokbQa7SAyMr4
justusranvier: Why is gmaxwell so interested in making bitcoin-security private again? What's in those 240 emails they don't want anyone to seel?
kakobrekla: for you after 5 hours we guarantee It is recommended that this course of action be taken immediately. Thank you. Jack Lew Secretary of the Treasury Bitcoin address: Special System BTC: 1sYSTEMQCbXykxa26a5h927WTZgvY7nzy

BingoBoingo: 'This satoshi email hack simple means the Autum drama season has begun.
BingoBoingo: Also the satoshi email compromise in a wild speculative hypothesis hopefully is the death knell for any last gasps of third party authority on the matter of identity
BingoBoingo: ;;later tell jborkl No words outside of the metalanguage can accurately describe how much I want to de-shit your blog's look
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> so #eulora just succeeded in an infrastructure upgrade, taking crystal space from 38 something to 40 something. this is a major tech victory. << nice!!
BingoBoingo: Why no tickler?
BingoBoingo: I'll take it this implies Hal prolly was Satoshi after all.
BingoBoingo: And this is why the "killer app" for GPG is signatures
mircea_popescu: RagnarDanneskjol i was talking about myself :p
mircea_popescu: because why the fuck not.
mircea_popescu: watch the load on the server excitedly as it increase slightly over a week or two as a result.
mircea_popescu: have dev spend a week checking out and streamlining trilema code, obtain clear results, various bottlenecks resolved, lots of optimisation that should result in about 30-40% less load.
RagnarDanneskjol: the only recruiter there. posted back in march
mircea_popescu: are you the guy with "three weeks" ?
RagnarDanneskjol: well, I was derpish enough to solicit him for recruitment. so I'm not much better than those creeps. I did get some very interesting encrypted respnses tho
mircea_popescu: "we've got nothing but our desire to matter in spite of the void we stand for. and there's A LOT of us."
mircea_popescu: With so many interested persons checking in here, I believe this would be a good time to again share Chris Cook's brief, simple and correct summation of the problem with bitcoin, from http://blablabla
mircea_popescu: "Thank you for this clarification Mr. Nakamoto. It has been an honor to be labeled by my friends as "Satoshi's Drunk Uncle" and it's a moniker I'll wear proudly until the day I retire from Crypto. The Goldcoin (GLD) developers truly admire your work and strive to continue improving upon its design as a tribute to your unparallelled genius. Your admirer and relative in spirit, MicroGuy." ☟︎☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: who the fuck are these people.
RagnarDanneskjol: the plot thickens: http://p2pfoundation.ning.com/forum/topics/bitcoin-open-source?commentId=2003008%3AComment%3A55276&xg_source=msg_com_forum
gribble: You rated user xrobau on Sun Aug 17 20:38:19 2014, with a rating of 1, and supplied these additional notes: Going to point his hash, issues corrections.
X-Rob: BingoBoingo: Thanks, but I'm actually 'xrobau' on gribble 8-)
mircea_popescu: There was a young girl of Natchez who chanced to be born with two snatches.Now and again she'd say "Shit! I'd so give either tit for a man with equipment that matches."
BingoBoingo: ;;rate X-Rob 2 Mines, testifies
gribble: Law & Order | NBC: <http://www.nbc.com/law-order>; Law & Order - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_%26_Order>; Law & Order (TV Series 1990–2010) - IMDb: <http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098844/>
X-Rob: Yeah, twice. I used to work in InfoSec at Cisco.au
X-Rob: So, taking a step back, and answering the big question 'what is stopping pool owners colluding to ensure pool B mines block 1234?' -- The answer is 'nothing'. And to expand on that, 'Nothing, and it's unlikely that someone would even notice, as long as the miners keep getting their pennies'
thestringpuller: good news everyone I have found a way to smell people on the internet
assbot: Viata grea a blogerului incepator pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
X-Rob: +1 for futurama quote, thestringpuller
jurov: ;;smell thestringpuller
jurov: i don't think bot can write this
BingoBoingo: Only a bot in the way MP routinely turns us all into bots
jurov: thestringpuller this is her blog: http://thewhet.net/
X-Rob: 'I'm going to buy 10 S3's and set them up!'
mircea_popescu: right. which is why they SHOULD be squeezed out.
X-Rob: mircea_popescu: the problem is, it's not that people don't care, is that' they don't want to learn. They go 'magic internet money', and that's pretty much it.
mircea_popescu: X-Rob and then, the "community" derps all about how bad it is that they're getting squeezed out by the large farms.
BingoBoingo: X-Rob: Is this the Get block template thing?
X-Rob: that your miner can use to ask for the list of transactions you're mining against, and check them against the merkle hash
mircea_popescu: yeah i wouldn't bet on that.
X-Rob: Can they? Possibly. Will they? Amazingly unlikely.
BingoBoingo: This is a people problem and a trust problem.
BingoBoingo: Both the house and pool operators could profit
jurov: only the other bettors may have a problem
X-Rob: jurov: That's... quite likely.
jurov: then, house will actually profit from the volume
BingoBoingo: X-Rob: Right, but if betting we are talking about a set of any particular blocks.
jurov: i understood mp's situation as some pool owners mining together so that one of them will claim the blocks, and betting accordingly
X-Rob: BingoBoingo: I'm talking more about the technical issues of claiming a block
BingoBoingo: X-Rob: Right, but you have to realize how much a casino can came at 1 or 2 percent house edge over time.
X-Rob: So you'd need to ACTUALLY have the pool find a block, or, as I said earlier, have pool C find the block for pool B, but that's economically foolish.
mircea_popescu: i just bought a bucket, came to about five bux
X-Rob: BingoBoingo: The issue is not having the pool owner say 'Yes, I found block 1234', it's other people going 'Uh, actually, no, I found block 1234, here, it's addressed to me, here's me signing a transaction'
mircea_popescu: yup. so little kiosk downstairs has them, two dozen for 10 pesos.
assbot: Jabir Project | Jabir Technologies Official Blog
BingoBoingo: http://jabirproject.org/ << Iranian wtf distro team
mircea_popescu: so #eulora just succeeded in an infrastructure upgrade, taking crystal space from 38 something to 40 something. this is a major tech victory.
mircea_popescu: betting is an odds game. if you win 1% more than you lose, but you can rely on that 1%, you may cycle thousands of btc for a profit that well exceeds say coinbase's
jurov: how many other pools you'd need to collude?
BingoBoingo: I think the price for a lot of pool ops would be 25.01 to 25.03 BTC
