mircea_popescu: looks like either a horrible wax job or some sort of dermatological
testing
mircea_popescu: lol nice link
ThickAsThieves . aurorACOIN Difficulty: 36
mircea_popescu: Mats_cd03: north koreans shouting ones and zeros into
telephones have better uptime <<< yes well,
there's a reason i've not seen
three digits on a bill for years and years.
mircea_popescu: you can drown
the loser in my ballsack sweat, it still won't smell pleasant.
mircea_popescu: reason is probably similar
to why perfume can't replace shower.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo: EFF seems
to suffer from
the librarian view of
technology, hard
to
tell if
they are stooges or unaware. << eff is a large donation based org. it has
the limitations and blind spots
that flow from
that. it's useful for what it's iuseful, it's not
the pope of electronic freedom. juust a
tool.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: hope
there are no btc sniffing dogs << laugh, but i bet some bozo is working on ferreting out 'kulaks'
through pheromonal sensing of one kind or another. fellow who walks around knowing he's loaded, probably can be smelled, in principle << women can definitely smell me.
mircea_popescu: (this dovetails nicely into my experience with mexico : everyone was like "omg, carry
toilet paper!!". in reality, mexico bus stations look better, are cleanner and so forth
than us airports)
mircea_popescu: also in general, i find
that what
the resident expats say about BA is about as spot on as if
they had never visited
mircea_popescu: and nobody's mugging anyone,
that's for damned sure. i saw more muggings a day in new york
than in a month of here.
mircea_popescu: i imagine
they would prefer you don't
take dollars out, however. not sure why you'd want
to, but anyway.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: ^ mircea_popescu, chetty: can you comment? << yes i can comment. i carried a huge stack of bills inside, it's not
that
they allowed it, it's
that
they don't evenm know, cause
they couldn't be bothered
to find out.
mircea_popescu: a country where ordinary people obey
the law is
the worst sort of country
to live in.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: a kind of 'soft' deindustrialization. << if
that is soft i have no idea what is hard. and also,
the people making milk in
their back yard are being kept in check with regulation.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, you don't get
to arbitrarily define what's
thinking
tho.
mircea_popescu: pankkake: it's not necessarily weaker << it's in fact weak
to very bad rng. it has in displayed
this in
the wild, on some machines for which rng = 9
peterl: mdev: you need
to pick a better font, it's PeterL, not Peter1
mircea_popescu: "what fucking, you just sit your ass on
the cock and bob up and down"
mircea_popescu: sometimes i suspect you don't understand what
thinking actually is.
mircea_popescu: mdev:
the public key argument
thing, about it being exposed after
the first
transaction, not sure why
that's an issue, RSA is based off handing out public keys, I know bitcoin uses ECDMA or whatever, but still if
the public key can't be
trusted << because cargo cult sekoority.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, you know
the whole
thing went in
the logs coupla days back
mircea_popescu: benkay: bitcoin "devs" are idiotically and self-destructively committed
to
this "no reuse" idea, ever since implementing
the braindead wallet schema
that creates new addrs for your change << it's not
that bad of an idea.
the problem is
that
they misrepresent it as a central point of protocol, when it's merely a marginal helper
tool
thing. sorta like people
thinking all carpenter
tables must also have a vase on
them
mircea_popescu: pankkake:
though it is definitively a weird idea << no argument
there.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I made it on old forum. My guess is
there are syncing problems between
the
two.

mike_c: buy
the dip! (unless it keeps going down)
mike_c: you need some
tips on
this?
mircea_popescu: also in
the news, earlier
today : argentina "hallo mr mp, in
this here argentina all our keyboards are spanish" ; mp : "fuck you" ; argentina : "ok here are your english keyboards plox"
mike_c: how'd
the euro end up
today? any new cool huge pictures?
mike_c: obviously kako, but don't confuse him with
the advanced shit yet.
mike_c: it was actually
the reverse,
the price dropping killed gox.
mdev: really? what caused it
then
mircea_popescu: benkay [...]<< i only ever found 1 acceptable cup in bsas << no actually
there;s plenty, you just need good intel :D
mdev: thanks, was
the 1k+ per btc
to
the price it is now, solely a result of mtgox going under?
mircea_popescu: methinks kako is maybe not
the best person
to be running funds and shit
mike_c: doh, i coulda swore
that worked
mdev: iwilcox, I may have linked him an article about it,
that
mircea_popescu: mircea_popescu: mastercard
told xapo
to go fuck itself << if i recall, you're friends with
the fellow who runs it, ask him wtf << well what's
to ask ? boy likes girl, girl doesn't like boy. what would you ask him ?
mike_c: also fyi,
to multiply by 1000 you just add 3 zeros ;)

gribble: (calc <math expression>) -- Returns
the value of

The syntax is Python syntax;
the
type of arithmetic is floating point. Floating point arithmetic is used in order
to prevent a user from being able
to crash
to
the bot with something like '10**10**10**10'. One consequence is
that large values such as '10**24' might not be exact.
mdev: I wonder what
the early bitcoiners
that spent like 1k bitcoins on pizza's
think about
that now
mdev: makes it hard
to sell
them, considering
their increased value over
time
mdev: considering bitcoins were worth pennies a few years ago, and peaked over 1k, plus
the fact
they're limited
mdev: since you're about
to go mow, also
thanks for
the clarity, so you guys
trade, very neat
mdev: learned on reddit
that "fresh cut grass" smell, is a chemical grass releases when it's in pain
peterl: mdev
this is a channel for people who are actually using bitcoins
peterl: stepping out
to mow
the lawn, will voice myself when I am back later.
mdev: trying
to figure out what
this channel is about, been looking at
the sites in
the links
mdev: are you guys developers or mostly just
traders?
mike_c: similar
to 24 hours of LeMons
mike_c: World of
Tramborghinis
