ascii_field: mircea_popescu: only reason is to hitch a phree ride on the existing allocations
trinque: ascii_field: ah yep, read that. and it wouldn't surprise me if A was an intentional kill switch, even less so with the hypothetical "failed project"
BingoBoingo: <ascii_field> felipelalli: i have no idea, but iirc mircea_popescu dislikes him << Two different goats
mircea_popescu: i hope me and mike_c die in the same plane crash and i get to hear him talk it over with ol' paulie.
trinque: ascii_field: which?
felipelalli: mircea_popescu, lol
mircea_popescu: mike_c "some reason" aka it's fucking stupid and who the fuck does this to people, takes their napkin sketches and puts it in a frame above the mantelpiece!
trinque: ascii_field: damn, wouldn't that be a thing to watch.
ascii_field: mike_c: could easily push same button as mircea_popescu

felipelalli: mircea_popescu, I fully understood your point on that part, but it does not answer what if the miners decide to attack the actual Bitcoin making double spends, reverting transactions etc. They'll have this power. Read http://trilema.com/2014/the-woes-of-altcoin-or-why-there-is-no-such-thing-as-cryptocurrencies/
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i dunno how you do it, but yeah
felipelalli: mircea_popescu, in other words: the decision of majority of miners could literally kill the actual Bitcoin. Make it unusable.
felipelalli: mircea_popescu, I read your articles. Actually I had read some parts before, but I read all over again. Unfortunately I didn't find the answer to my question.

mircea_popescu: events that increase in frequency due to the rapidly destabilizing climate." <<< ascii_field i'm sorry, what ?
kakobrekla: ascii_field f5
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i'm not convinced that there is enough 'genuine cheat' or whatnot to go around. hence, the simulacra.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: it's a wriggleysgumification
assbot: Logged on 20-08-2015 03:59:34; mircea_popescu: re the ashley madison thing, i believe it chiefly provides the same service faux exchanges etc provide to the click-bound generation. ie, they get to pretend like they're traders, don juans, what not, all from the safety of their own den, and - crucially - without actually doing it.
felipelalli: mircea_popescu, thank you for the links! I was trying to find something relevant on log but I didn't so far.

kakobrekla: mircea_popescu try now
ascii_field: mircea_popescu, kakobrekla: i also noticed this. even dug in the payload, found nothing
mircea_popescu: ascii_field yes, because biology creeps in.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: funnily, the saltus thing is applicable to modern crapware written by morons who slavishly copy one another with minor variations
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: actually, sometimes is.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field thanks

mod6: <+mike_c> we = mod6 + mod6 << lol! in all seriousness, i think that ben supports us working on obsd as well; however, yes, his enthusiasm might be more tempered then my own. He does review all of these SoBA's before they get signed & sent out to ML

asciilifeform: turns out mircea_popescu was right. let's all fly on the first systemd-avionics plane!
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: aha, mircea_popescu linked to that very same, earlier
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu entomological sample, http://www.benzinga.com/news/15/08/5779058/bitcoin-flash-crashed-this-week << approximately a complete collection of ~everything but the actual truth~
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo i don't actually think they were READY to deploy this autumn. irrespective of the september term they might or might not have lied to manageement about. << Gavin's eariler marketing campaign made this autumn the latest they could do this. ☟︎

assbot: Logged on 20-08-2015 08:47:37; mircea_popescu: incidentally : if gpg had the fucking sense to include MORE information on its information line, we wouldn't have the problem with the dashes.
cazalla: http://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2015/aug/20/young-australians-increasingly-jobless-unmarried-and-living-at-home reminds me of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEgxS_vzQjU and with that, night night

thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: http://qntra.net/2015/01/the-hard-fork-missile-crisis/#comment-43598 << LOL. If you had a Bitcoin for every time someone eventually told you "You were right"...wait...

asciilifeform: did mircea_popescu (or anyone else) run a full sync with -verifyall ?
asciilifeform sometimes finds himself wondering how much mircea_popescu's apparatus actually differs from therealbitcoin
asciilifeform: (for those mythical ben_vulpess who read only ml but not #b-a)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: elaborate ?
mircea_popescu: "CURLE_OK" in particular is an abomination upon nomenclature.
assbot: Logged on 20-08-2015 04:32:13; mircea_popescu: the only cherry missing from this cake is to discover hearn actually outsourced this shit via odesk or some crap.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: entomological interest only, yes.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: and a more-or-less accurate (for a non-#b-a denizen) outline of events re: same.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it has snapshots of choice hearnias, with commentary
asciilifeform: hanbot: it will, possibly, supercede these if and when ben_vulpes, mod6, et al, agree that my current approach is correct.
