pankkake: for some reasons romania is banned
as a whole in many private torrent trackers
Asa9: I went to the shrink once. He diagnosed me
as being Stoic. I cried.
mircea_popescu: people love to think that trilema credits system is there cause im greedy, but it may just
as well be the case
jborkl: I thought Activemining was resolved
as a fat guy in the trunk of a 67 skylark 6 months ago
pankkake: and I think CBTC is the least worst havelock security :) (I sold mine
as soon
as I could make a profit, because fuck havelock, but anyways)
mircea_popescu: dun worry too much,
as exciting
as it may seem and
as fleeting it may appear for that reason, bitcoin will still be here in a decade, and so will this chan.
Apocalyptic: people seem to use it more
as a wallet than an exchange though
herbijudlestoids: just a bit of fun, i originally wanted to get some and sell them on -otc to establish WoT, but nobody wanted to buy the small amount i initially had and someone (i think benkay) mentioned sturles to me anyway
as someone who helps newbies to get rated on WoT...so not really necessary for much anymore
Luke-Jr: herbijudlestoids: is the same
as herbijudlestoids: weird
as well because those 50 blocks are surrounded by 512 blocks
mircea_popescu: i wonder what the strong financials those'd be. undisclosed
as is customary ?
Namworld: Yet again I can't do stuff not related to driving because they only take driver's license
as a form of ID.
benkay:
as in does what ams said on tin?
mircea_popescu: herbijudlestoids
as far
as i recall the original reports of the sr 2.0 failure placed the loss at 5k btc
herbijudlestoids: MisterE: isnt that weird that you can never seem to find information? lol ....

As you are aware, the MtGox team has been working hard to address an issue with the way that bitcoin withdrawals are processed. By "bitcoin withdrawal" we are referring to transactions from a MtGox bitcoin wallet to an external bitcoin address. Bitcoin transactions to any MtGox bitcoin
mircea_popescu: random_cat same
as always, the bitcoincharts usd basket
herbijudlestoids: mircea_popescu: i was not specifically, with the amount of capital input, trying to turn a profit. no. i figured that was clear but apparently not. the goal, specifically, was to entice an "ecosystem"
as you put it, into existence, from which a profit can actually be derived.
mircea_popescu: herbijudlestoids anyway, it's nothing
as heavyhanded
as "a lesson" blabla, it's just we apparently all seem to see sometyhing there.
mircea_popescu: herbijudlestoids think in terms of autonomous entities. like say an insect, or whatever. its survival
as a type and
as a species depends on interracting with an unspeicifed envronment a certain way.
herbijudlestoids:
as long
as the spread is wide it costs me almost nothing to keep the last at 110 :P
mircea_popescu: not saying it isn't necessarily, but curious
as to the rationale.
herbijudlestoids: so if i make a profit, but i cant make another profit, it counts
as getting creamed?
herbijudlestoids: well, it was my assumption that BingoBoingo wouldnt wanna see the last trade
as ~100 but i guess i was wrong
BingoBoingo: herbijudlestoids: I believe this point came up in the -assets log earlier. You didn't need someone with 100 BTC to beat your efforts at Market Marking. All it took
as someone with 0.015 BTC and some ATC.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo
as rickles once said, he's making a loss on every trade but hopes to make it up on volume.
BingoBoingo: Their order matching seems to be shit
as well.
mircea_popescu: jurov the guarantee isn't that no city will be hit. in fact
as i say above, at least one already has.
mircea_popescu: in 2013 nuclear warheads are about
as useful
as DTT bombs in an apple model store.
mircea_popescu: herbijudlestoids war lite. people shooting each other with small arms
as if it were burbank.
mircea_popescu: jurov famished
as they are, they'll be prolly beaten off with a stick
mircea_popescu: the us is a large, federal (
as opposed to national) construct.
mircea_popescu: it's only stable for
as long
as there's no new technology.
decimation: Total U.S. retirement assets were $17.5 trillion
as of December 31, 2010, up 5.2 percent in the fourth quarter of 2010 and up 9.1 percent for the year.
davout: there's no such thing
as a "ok you're kosher" kind of stamp
mircea_popescu: decimation that'd be the optimistic view
as to the us' future.
decimation:
As I grow older I've learned to perceive danger in banality
mircea_popescu: see Jere_Jones people have a lot of trouble stepping outside of the environment they perceive
as familiar and thus imagine safe.
mircea_popescu: They’re not in fact receiving
as much
as recognition of status or effort, they find themselves in the untenable position of a poor immigrant who is spending all his wages and borrowing at unbearable, immigrant-ghetto rates to buy flowers and wine for some local beauty who barely even registers their desperation or even presence.
mircea_popescu: Add to the very narrow margins and very active competition the burden of regulatory infringement. Money changers are spending
as it is now literally immense sums (in Bitcoin terms) to try and mostly comply with obscure and convoluted regulation, which they can’t avoid or ignore because they’re always stuck with one foot in fiat. In exchange for this draining expenditure they are receiving nothing at all, certainly
Duffer1: "think of it
as open-source code regulation"
mircea_popescu: sure, just
as soon
as that other man is willing to eat dog.
bloctoc: I wonder how long it will take for the phrase "Silk Road" to replace the word "Al Quaida"
as American Press' most feared thingy.
Duffer1: "Our initial investigations indicate that a vendor exploited a recently discovered vulnerability in the Bitcoin protocol known
as “transaction malleability” to repeatedly withdraw coins from our system until it was completely empty."
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves "because they were saving it so karpeles could offer a "credible" lie
as to why his well known fractional reserve scam blew open" ?
mircea_popescu: the coal burning power plants release X mercury into atmosphere
as part of their working.
mircea_popescu: yeah, but inasmuch
as you rely in any fashion on blockchain generated numbers
benkay: is it so surprising, though mircea_popescu? the us is the land of 'get rich quick accidentally'. people don't understand the world at all, so anything mysterious might make them rich
as they don't understand things to begin with.
benkay: waterfall
as in 'software mgmt'?
benkay: some day shortly after that i'm ditching laptops
as a 'work' machine.
mircea_popescu: anyone wants to use the phone they can just blow in your
as.
herbijudlestoids: BingoBoingo: orderbook looks pretty much the same
as this morning? just one extra offer that has narrowed the spread by 5 satoshi
nick_fly: mircea_popescu: i'm not asking
as much
as openBSD asked. just
as much
as you can
nick_fly: I left for 7-8 minutes until the end of Internet access. SOMEONE!!!! HELP!!!!
AS MUCH
AS YOU CAN!!!! 13xPYSqi8q3ywtU4jSVRWNR7dib1e4soKx
nick_fly: 13xPYSqi8q3ywtU4jSVRWNR7dib1e4soKx
as much
as you can
BingoBoingo: nick_fly: He
as you boss could do 5 laundry markers for 0.02 BTC
nick_fly: 13xPYSqi8q3ywtU4jSVRWNR7dib1e4soKx
as much
as you can
nick_fly: Guys, help me! I'm stuck in Ukraine because of this revolution and I can not go home. But then the border guard offers to give him a bribe and he will miss me. He told that accepts BTC. I know it's sounds like a joke, but tomó it's totally not fun!!! Donate
as much
as you can.
herbijudlestoids:
as in, the childhood exposure to democritus is talking to me, and convincing me that i prefer one to the other
moiety: pics didnt help making moves
as theyhad to be in order
moiety: i meant c3 before
as well
BingoBoingo: moiety: No, It's like you have spent the entire game
as an Olympic snowboarder is a green haze.
herbijudlestoids: i dont think turtle/retroshare is designed
as anything but...definitely not for public net
BingoBoingo: herbijudlestoids:
As I can tell the difference is MP has been shot where
as I have merely had a shotgun pointed inches from my face
herbijudlestoids: i have never met anyone
as jaded
as the likes of mircea_popescu or BingoBoingo lol
herbijudlestoids: my feeling is that we will just continue to repeat the current boom/bust cycle until one of the cycles kills the dollar
as a global reserve asset and the euro takes over
mircea_popescu: herbijudlestoids just, there wasn't who to go on tv and say "you can either all starve and your kids can have a country to live in or else we continue derping around and we might
as well just go buy the rope now. so i've chosen for you to starve, stfu and eat it with the big spoon"
BingoBoingo: moiety:
As long
as you don't press for speed chess like truffles I'm fine
moiety:
as long
as you aren't getting more annoyed thats fine
mircea_popescu: fucking greek means of production based on italian fisherman dishes
as implemented by american kids who sleep under desks in offices because even that's more interesting than their social life.
mircea_popescu: Work on the Diaspora software began in May 2010. Finn Brunton, a teacher and digital media researcher at New York University, described their method
as "a return of the classic geek means of production: pizza and ramen and guys sleeping under the desks because it is something that it is really exciting and challenging." A developer preview was released on September 15 and received criticism for various security bugs
mircea_popescu: . Dropshadows lift the type off the page
as if they are 3D.
mircea_popescu: "Now that Bitcoin computational power is handled almost entirely by large data centers, the currency has rapidly changed from a distributed, decentralized currency, to one that is much more centralized and vulnerable. Companies such
as Cex.io are routinely hitting 40% PoW computational power on a daily basis, and will soon be able to perform 51% attacks at will, if they so choose."
moiety: i am still at the same position
as that day BingoBoingo. I can still see the linux CDs on top of my pc. I just never used them yet
mike_c: benkay: yes, i just don't think a reference implementation counts
as well defined. so TCP_KEEPALIVE is set to 100. why? was that picked intellignetly, randomly, or it doesn't really fking matter? you don't know from implementation.
BingoBoingo: moiety: I feel lied to. You told me months ago you were linuxing. Back when you adopted smuxi
as your IRC client
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: There'a actually barely anything on the book preventing 10,000 satoshis
as well though
herbijudlestoids: not really looking for anything except
as a mechanism to get into WoT usefully
herbijudlestoids: BingoBoingo: sorry dude i am just recovering from some illness and about to go full pelt into a bunch of work related things
as we are growing rapidly now...you want someone with more free time :)
