mircea_popescu: fluffypony you payiong the 40 or shall i ?
mircea_popescu: who the fuck could have imagined that if you aim to cook the point is to start heating the oil, rather than getting the proper hat.
mircea_popescu: <fluffypony> in this instance it's for a valid cause :) << i'm impressed how well this works. same thing happened with openbsd, people ended up giving them like 100k. and we don't even have a foundation! and we're not even ceos of bitcoin!
Phoebus: And get others to as well, if they see no market, no bother.
fluffypony: yeah I should probably pester them some more

Phoebus: Uhh, kick them till they do.
fluffypony: Phoebus: I'm still waiting for them to support voice in South Africa
Phoebus: mircea_popescu, if you don't mind twilio's charges, also another option. Fun API :)

fluffypony: also for when she needs to phone people back, Skype calls are particularly cheap worldwide
fluffypony: in this instance it's for a valid cause :)
bounce: you want business expenses to write off?
bounce isn't sure why you're so happy to throw bezzle at redmond-owned skype
fluffypony: I'm happy to pay the 4 EUR, and Skype is easy enough for this
fluffypony: can we not just go for the simplest solution?
fluffypony: moiety: yes, but I think you have to be in the US for it?
bounce: it's a right pain to set up, need an existing US number to get in
bounce: you set up just about any voip thing (phone, mobile phone, softphone, whatever) as long as it talks sip, and it should work
fluffypony: fail at reading today
bounce: it's a sipgate.co.uk thingy, free.
bounce: signed up for... oh feeding AWS a number or something and they didn't bite, arses
fluffypony: I'll pay the 4 Eurow
bounce: yeah skype wants teh monies
Phoebus: bounce, what are you using for it? Try freeswitch?
moiety: ok, can get a skye dedicated number for £4.03/month or £11.50/3months or i can just attach it to my mobile number
bounce: in fact I have a softphone with DID lying around, never really tested
fluffypony: and calls to that come in to Skype
Phoebus: Have you guys watched fonejacker? Was on some british channel, 4 I think. Do something that that :P
bounce: I'm having to stop slacking soonish today though, but tomorrow and onward is open.
bounce: sure. not that I know much, I tried to set it up once before and horribly failed (something funky with the nokia voip stack and passive-aggressive RFC handling), but I'll be glad to help
jurov: i'll gladly help, too
mircea_popescu: i don't think she'll comfortably manage the tech stuff on her own
mircea_popescu: bounce mind helping her out ? practically rather than theoretically i mean
bounce: can't always get caller ID outbound matching though
bounce: get a possibly free SIP acct. somewhere and put one or more of those in front
mircea_popescu: you can't get a 1-500-43987543985 sorta thing ?
mircea_popescu: i thought skype actually took numbers
bounce: s/_/-/ or whatever skype takes
bounce: no, not other than. I ment skype:#bitcoin_assets not skype:moderncuriosity
moiety: my account is called moderncuriosity, i'm happy to make a new one, whatever works best
mircea_popescu: it's a community pbs type of service.
mircea_popescu: you mean other than #bitcoin-assets ?
bounce: just wondered if its own identity brand thing wouldn't be a good idea
mircea_popescu: she's only working for me in the sense that i'm the one to pay her first.
mircea_popescu: bounce the whole thing would be #bitcoin-assets reception service.
bounce: separate skype thingy? "bitcoin_assets" or something?
mircea_popescu: ok, so here's the deal, you get 1 bitcent an hour for now, i'll prepay you 100 hours. as an extra, you start a blog, keep a log of your calls there. time, very short summary of conversation. no publicly identifiable info.
moiety: lol funny you say that im PAYG vodafone
mircea_popescu: it's definitely cheaper than any plan vodafone'd sell you.
moiety: well, reception is what i do so i'm happy to do it for you. i don't make personall calls so i can keep records. im not sure how you feel about it being a mobile number?
moiety: my number is disposable. only two people know it. what about call backs? i'm not in a position to call internationally
kakobrekla: yes but that was so far unspecified!
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla well the implementation details after the concept agreement.
kakobrekla: mp, best to get a dedicated throwaway number for that
mircea_popescu: cause you're in the bath or w/e, you excuse yourself, proimise to call them later, and do.
mircea_popescu: if you don't know the answer, you either ask here or else if not possible
mircea_popescu: moiety i do not want you to say anything specific. we'll publish your number, anyone calls with a question you answer to the best of your ability, as per your knowledge assimilated here.
bounce: called us friends. bet he's nigerian royalty too.

BigBitz: such anger in this room, friends.
mircea_popescu: moiety would you be amenable to being our receptionist ?
jurov: moiety, and you'll be able to reason about how mpex works and why?
moiety: i do, mobile not landline though
kakobrekla: so you can also call and go "read to me for a while"
bounce: can get a DID on a SIP for free, though the number will likely be spendy
bounce: OTOneH I've had that thought for ages, irc to voice, though voice to irc would perhaps be a bit of a challenge. also the plusvees. OTOtherH this made me realise I perhaps really shouldn't want to try and find out
mircea_popescu: bounce this is an idea.
bounce: veecees like to fone. so, where's the #bitcoin-assets voice-to-irc perpetual fone meet?
jurov: and that was in person. and they wanted to talk by phone which i abhor for other reasons
jurov: so far i never succeeded to explain to anyone what's this about, i gave up
mircea_popescu: jurov why wouldn't you want to ?
jurov: i can now link them to ho's today performance
jurov: yesterday i emaled to prospective investor (more politely) "i don't want to become a bridge between VC and people around MPEx, pls read my blog, otherwise you're in for cultural shock"
bounce: that's like, three more buzzwords than the fat frenchman, yo
Vexual: Muh twitter isy twitching
kakobrekla: re that ho and whatever exchange >> The application has been written from the ground up by our CEO over the course of 1.5 years of development effort. The frontend has been written in a combination of JQuery, HTML5, Twitter Bootstrap, PHP.
mircea_popescu: so many men trained to behave like women floating about. it's a sickening display.
bounce: I remember thinking too many buzzwords, also the wrong ones.
Vexual: I think ass could call that trademark in law
bounce: oh I think we discussed globalcoinfx a while back, didn't we? the pattern rings a bell.
mircea_popescu: and now back to doing anjie
ho_: I have no theory
mircea_popescu: so your theory is i call up bill mills and ask "hey, you got a ho working there" and he says "sure" and i say a ok ?
mircea_popescu: it was friendly up until you started making vague claims and refusing to back em up.
ho_: alright then
