mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-04-2015#1104132 << no, i happened to read it (because blondy friend insisted it's the greatest thing ever) but i didn't think much of it myself. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-04-2015#1103979 << hory shit, where is this still done by hand ? they got those machiens don't they. ☝︎
ben_vulpes: 'tisn't the typing part of computers as what's damaging to me poor meatsack
Citizenfive: hang on, I'm gen'ing a keypair so I don't contribute to you fags' carpal tunnel every 30 minutes
ben_vulpes: i don't even know what opsec means either
ben_vulpes: "Dear God, please don't use Pond for anything real yet. I've hammered out nearly 20K lines of code that have never been reviewed. Unless you're looking to experiment you should go use something that actually works."
Citizenfive: Well anyway, if you believe you know all the details and have the threat vectors properly mitigated, then you're already compartmenting, so don't worry about any of this
Citizenfive: ascii_lander: You aren't rocking an Intel or AMD cpu in your machine?
ascii_lander: can't speak for others, but no gods involved with this junker
assbot: Even more evidence that Apple was full of shit."/osxreverser: "Fixing rootpipe in Mavericks to call Apple’s bluff" https://t.co/HK5EWLACap"
ben_vulpes: i don't get the windows line
ben_vulpes: "Open Source" as a measure of quality is bullshit. Many eyes don't see squat. It's orthogonal AT BEST to quality ( probably actually negatively correlated ) << tell a kid about it
mod6: i'll probably wake up at 9, but cant be sure since i hvaen't slept in like... 36 hours
mod6: if you don't see/hear from me by 11am, plz come to my room and knock on my door, or call my room #?
ben_vulpes: <Citizenfive> ... whatever system of governance the US has ... isn't a good system << awh but i love it it's going to burn itself out so much more quickly than other more reasonable alternatives
ben_vulpes: !up Citizenfive anyways, welcome. don't mind me, i'm just the court clown.
Citizenfive: ben_vulpes: It doesn't. It's for chaotic opsec. Compartmentalization.
Citizenfive: oh I don't care if it's _the_ "OTR" but that sort of key architecture is desirable
williamdunne: Citizenfive: So what is it, if you don't mind my asking?
mircea_popescu: narcisism. didn't you have a question ?
Citizenfive: I seem to have improperly conveyed the degree of importance I place on this "word" stuff. It's not particularly important; don't worry about it.
Citizenfive: That'd be interesting, as I don't believe either of those.
mircea_popescu: you can't seriously contemplate a system so easy t oattack. i will attack it.
mircea_popescu: nigga... say wut ?! what "lack of governance" wonder be this, of the box so empty it doesn't even contain a vacuum ?
trinque: Citizenfive | What I'm saying, if I'm saying *anything*, is that the words don't matter. << I used to think this; lately I consider it an autoimmune disorder caused by lifetime immersion in symbolic shit ☟︎☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: Citizenfive can you distinguish between the "words don't matter" position and (mutatis mutandins), the "BUT it is called the “Worldwide Web” so there really is NO chance of any site being 100% secure" ?
Citizenfive: What I'm saying, if I'm saying *anything*, is that the words don't matter. And as a word, democracy seems to have too many contradictory definitions to be especially useful as a descriptor. If US = democracy, well, that's not good. If Switzerland = democracy, that's a bit better, though the consensus is that beast is a "DIRECT democracy".
Citizenfive: anyway I don't want to get lost into semantics; I think most here understand whatever system of governance the US has, it manages to masquerade as a democracy, and isn't a good system. Whatever that says about the word is less important to me.
Citizenfive: DEMOCRACY isn't actually a thing. Not in a meaningful sense. Hence every country is a democracy. A well-architected democratic republic has some neat features, for example. But democracy is kinda like an adjective.
assbot: this is awful http://t.co/R8WBYWGxof
mircea_popescu: who isn't these days.
assbot: Logged on 17-04-2015 23:32:14; Citizenfive: Yeah. Seemed to have a specific reason, too. I don't expect I'm a regular conversation topic.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-04-2015#1103648 << actually, nothing specific. intel went "hey, here's one that's not stupid". doesn't happen that often. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-04-2015#1103568 << the official word is that the behaviour couldnb't be reproduced (ben tried amongothers) and prolly alf did some strange locally. ☝︎
Citizenfive: It automates collecting and remembering-correctly certain things. These actions were previously done in one's own head, usually with less fidelity and in ways that required more effort or energy or whatever. Idk, I call it automation, but it doesn't really matter.
danielpbarron: the WoT isn't automated
Citizenfive: But we'll get there. That's the difficulty with anything. The WoT automates some rep stuff, but doesn't automate KNOWING what really is and isn't automated, or something like that
Citizenfive: I guess that, and more critically, amoung its users, I see too much overreliance on it (which is to say, people who don't fully grip the CAPS&LIMS of it as a tool)
danielpbarron: the identity doesn't have to be tied to a slave name
trinque: danielpbarron: say, oh I don't know, I'm deep within the NSA... and I want to leak some documents
Citizenfive: MP appears to know how, in his description of how to use it he explains what it is and isn't
trinque: Citizenfive: I don't think off-the-record is what's wanted here
williamdunne: Citizenfive: my familiarity with OTR is very slim, having only used it in conjunction with jabber. But what does it offer that GPG doesn't?
danielpbarron: otr isn't in the WoT
danielpbarron: irc isn't written by a member of the WoT
williamdunne: Then again, I also wouldn't still be in the US
williamdunne: cazalla: If he didn't comply straight away, it would still end up with them threatening him personally. I would do exactly the same if I was in the US. Best not to mess with the guys with guns
cazalla: williamdunne, no doubt he's in a difficult situation but with the last one, he wasn't even going to mention anything and had to be convinced to provide additional information to the public if memory serves
Citizenfive: Yeah. Seemed to have a specific reason, too. I don't expect I'm a regular conversation topic. ☟︎
danielpbarron: Citizenfive, until you're in the WoT, it doesn't really matter what else you do
BingoBoingo: Well, the first is don't let the Fed's get your privates
assbot: “Cody Wilson Wants to Destroy Your World” by /ajzaleski https://t.co/kUTv9jyJJA
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-04-2015#1103404 << that qntra commenter eh. lol so he doesn't understand things so i'm wrong "because reasons" and therefore other things and such. ☝︎
jurov: why? escort won't come to the room?
cazalla: safety isn't guaranteed sosamendez
funkenstein_: instead of e.t. "mit server"
mogreen: BingoBoingo: even ppl who don't go to vegas need mo' green!
BingoBoingo: mogreen: Haven't you seen the movie?
BingoBoingo: cazalla: You don't understand how fundamentally these services are broken. You can withdraw Bitcents from addresses with hundreds of BTC
cazalla: i can't imagine his wife is that upset, had what.. 3 kids and still has a rockin' body
punkman: and they aren't even getting paid...
mircea_popescu: hahaha. if the past 20 years is flourishing, and the current "we don't pay you anything, write for free" thing is good times...
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I's seriously qntra it up now if wasn't contemplating legend atm
felipelalli: cazalla: I said I didn't feel free there in relation to the police/state, only that I could walk at night on street.
felipelalli: cazalla: really? I didn't realize that.
BingoBoingo: Working with minimal budget I've been cross taiting a number of coins across groups who I know don't want it.
BingoBoingo: OH, and since I can't be there, announcement for con 3. Since last con I have abused derp sportsbooks and CoinBase Inc. to taint no less than 750 BTC with my stench.
BingoBoingo: The tldr; situation on Gawker is Denton paid HamNo for too long and now he is focusing all his "pro-labor" effort on unionizing Gawker's editorial staff. No mention that editorial means management and as a rule management doesn't unionize.
felipelalli: BingoBoingo: it is a good news, isn't it? I know in U.S. you can carry a gun. I was saying here in Brazil. Here you can because the police almost doest not exist, but if you are caught, you'll be arrested.
BingoBoingo: felipelalli: Maybe you've been missing the news, but US police don't arrest armed persons very much anymore.
felipelalli: BingoBoingo: sure! But if you want I can introduce these two friends to you! One of them didn't like Brazil too much, I guess he already went back to U.S. The other one loves the beach here, but he complain about the insecurity, his house was robbed.
trinque: funkenstein_: can't carry a knife? if not a gun?
felipelalli: And you can't defend your self because personal weapon is very tackled, both culturally and the by the government.
felipelalli: BingoBoingo: well, the Brazil is a very complicated country. We have like 60~70% of taxes, but our government is very corrupt and inefficient. So, the people try to avoid to pay taxes, but some taxes are impossible to avoid. As a reference, you can buy a new March (small car of Nissan) 1.6 here for US$ 13,000.00 and you can't import your old Saturn. Used car import is prohibited. Also, a negative point is the huge urban violence.
BingoBoingo: felipelalli: Well, all those ways the US sucks that we don't talk about. Like way too many people I went to school with living in tri-generational homes.
ascii_orc: 'I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate.' (TM)
assbot: Biggest news today in the /hashtag/bitcoin?src=hash space by a mile. itBit landed none other then Sheila Blaire for their board! http://t.co/fn5VA2XdFx
ascii_on_tour: which appears to consist of 'hurry the fuck up, we don't care what's in the crate'
liquidassets: can anyone tell me if this VPN is something I don't want to use? I found this green gorilla thing next to the freenode login from #b-a's main page. Thought it was the cloak I was looking for. Don't believe it is as it's made logging into Thunderbird and Craigslist impossible without turning it off
liquidassets: can't get the hang of gpg...more reading
mircea_popescu: you didn't send me an email just now ?
mircea_popescu: <ascii_on_tour> ergo if i give the launch codes now - take a minute to think << you don't understand how launching works.
ben_vulpes: clouds don't really have a lot of water in them
ben_vulpes: ah it can't go on for very long
BingoBoingo: ascii_on_tour: Anyone local check to make sure you aren't imposter in latex mask?
assbot: Logged on 16-04-2015 23:17:05; ascii_c3: because it wasn't me...
williamdunne: BingoBoingo: Yeah, seems issue was my side because even I can't replicate it now
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=16-04-2015#1102783 << you don;'t understand how braindamage works. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: williamdunne: I haven't been able to reproduce on my version of FireFox
mircea_popescu hasn't changed anything
williamdunne: Interesting, can't replicate the issue
williamdunne: Watching some show about drug enforcement, the woman is quite insufferable. They keep discussing how dangerous drugs are and talking through how some of the worst things happened like cutting etc and each and every time it has been some sort of government action. Still can't put one plus one together.
BingoBoingo: It was. Seals for a brief period of time was a fun frontier shithole. Then Bitcoin went up and... Suddenly it wasn't the frontier no more.
williamdunne: Didn't look at it from that angle, good point
williamdunne: Sucks seems like it should be relative when talking about a specific company in an industry, wouldn't it be fairer to say "online poker sucks"?
BingoBoingo: Back in early 2013 you could find tables full of people who weren't botting or otherwise engaging in computer assisted play.
BingoBoingo remembers when seals wasn't that shitty
ascii_c3: because it wasn't me... ☟︎
williamdunne: Why don't you use the blockchain in all of your software!11
assbot: /jonmatonis Please tell me this scamzor is also a liezor https://t.co/CxbPyntCVv
