rithm: i'd like
to
take
that back
fluffypony: it
took him
this long
to realise
that?
assbot: I can no longer have even
the smallest association with
the Bitcoin Foundation, because of
the complete lack of
transparency
rithm: What if
there are
two ledgers with
the same name in different pools?

the difference between you and me: you need me, but I don't need you.'"
rithm: dude it's cooler
than bitcoin it's hyper
mircea_popescu: "If a node gets hacked
there are only a few ways it can impact
the system, but it can’t force good nodes
to accept forged
transfers. Generally, individual bad nodes will quickly be automatically identified and expelled from
the consensus pool."
chetty: something very wrong when you are
too busy
to stretch your mind
benkay: 160 hours a week in
the paddy
mircea_popescu: let
the lazy have extra chances
to self humiliation, it's a good selection exercise.
mircea_popescu: was about
to bitch about it, but
then i realised
there's wisdom in moiety's
terseness.
mircea_popescu: in
this case
the problem seems
to be
that ;;bc stuff is never mentioned explicitly.
benkay: <mircea_popescu> i wonder why
this is a common mistake // it
turns out
that making interfaces
that normal humans find intuitive is actually hard.

mircea_popescu: anyway, all our friend needs
to do now is look up
to see who's doing
the speculative attacks against
the dollar and he'll be like i dunno... five steps ahead of
the crowd ?
mircea_popescu: i like how people keep pretending like
they got an option and whatnot.
colinistheman: if I feel adventurous in setting up all
this stuff later I'll be back. g'day!
mircea_popescu: Second,
they misunderstand how strong currencies like bitcoin overtake weak currencies like
the dollar: it is
through speculative attacks and currency crises caused by investors, not
through
the careful evaluation of
tech journalists and 'mainstream consumers'.
colinistheman: but its ok
to use
them as long as you clean
them up
rithm: i wasn't sure
thanks!
rithm: is
that a lubricant or oxidizing agent?
rithm: what about leaving fresh blood on
the blade?
colinistheman: 1095hc is a good steel. you have
to keep it oiled
tho
colinistheman: it's also made with high carbon steel so it holds
the edge better for
that reason as well
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: yes -
the original method is no longer known, but
the modern equivalent is still pretty awesome in
terms of how it keeps its edge
colinistheman: any steel can be abused. obviously you have
to know how

the game

that will withstand abuse

the normal crap
that Americans buy because
they read it was good on /r/survival

take you seriously
mircea_popescu: you know what
the vietnamese fisherman working for
two rice patties a day said ?
rithm: shhhh mircea_popescu don't lie
to
the guy
mircea_popescu: colinistheman
this is pretty much
the only
thing you could be doing
that's worth your
time.

this more attention and
try again later
colinistheman: ok I will have
to give
this more attention and
try again later

there i'd fire myself over

the entire lift of employees.
mircea_popescu: i can probably identify employees by
the age old "distance
to gate" metric
colinistheman: it's in
the instructions, but
the instructions do not show
the command ;;bcregister
gribble: (bcregister <nick> <bitcoinaddress>) -- Register your identity, associating bitcoin address key <bitcoinaddress> with <nick>. <bitcoinaddress> should be a standard-type bitcoin address, starting with 1. You will be given a random passphrase

the car. it doesn't exist out of a vacuum. if yu want
to be a decen mechanic, and even

mircea_popescu: Girls Around Me is a simple app
that
takes your location, and
then queries Foursquare and Facebook’s location APIs
to find any girls (or boys)
that are geographically close. You’re
then shown a map, powered by Google, with faces (pulled from Facebook profiles) pinned
to it.

the world’s
toughest encryption by listening

Mats_cd03: does LUKS even default
to including metadata? iirc it was plain format
chetty: <asciilifeform> if insist on convenient, just go
to enemy & surrender.<<+1
pankkake: it just means I cannot change my key securely, and have
to rewrite
the data. so what?
assbot: SSD - Les
taux de retour des composants (10) - HardWare.fr
assbot: Disques durs - Les
taux de retour des composants (10) - HardWare.fr
chetty: convenient
tends
to = risky
pankkake: I don't mean private key, I mean
the metadata block. i.e. what luks does
pankkake: the only issue with a SSD is a security one. if you use full disk encryption, you have
to consider
that
the "change key" operation might leave a copy of
the old key in
the spare area
