mircea_popescu: since when is
the alleged foundation supporting ripple anyway
ThickAsThieves: oh yeah i forgot jurov had a blog cuz i filed it under MPEx
tutorials
fluffypony: "Happily married // Committed
to ever after // Champion for innovative
technology & policies
that empower people // Director of Public Affairs"
Hasbro: you know it’s early am when I’m reading hair dying
techniques at 622am
Naphex: also companies have
to finance most up front,
then wait for gov money
Naphex: so a lot of companies will just price
that in
their bid, pushing it up
Naphex: the
thing is, you can drag gov auctions forever
mircea_popescu: you're like
that stupid kid everyone beats up and
takes lunch money from. even
the girls.
Naphex: so you get
that web app, with x509 certificates/documents and
thats bout it
Naphex: i
think
that 'portal' -
thats what
they call shitty webapps
that cost hundreds of milions
Naphex: and most likely use adobe with x509
to sign/encrypt send pdf documents
Naphex: so
thats what your gov id will be
Naphex: you gotta have
that certificate imported and loaded
to log in
mircea_popescu: Naphex what i mean is,
technically speaking any
https site satisfies
the "it uses x509" criterion. and so, a contractor could in principle slap a lamp on a box, draw up 3 pages and
there you go, invoice for 50 billion.
Naphex: thats how
they do all gov eauctions everywhere
Naphex: <+mircea_popescu> Naphex so
they're going
to pay anoither 50 bn or w/e obamacare.com cost,
to have someone make
them a
https site ?
assbot: Voicing mircea_popescu without
time-limit.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo you nut, i just realised you were asking
the guy questions he had no voice.
mircea_popescu: Naphex so
they're going
to pay anoither 50 bn or w/e obamacare.com cost,
to have someone make
them a
https site ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: See, When you complain about us getting Britney Spears...
Those were
the bad, but not so bad days. Now we have
those
things.
ozbot: Obama Administration Launches Plan
To Make An "Internet ID" A Reality | Zero Hedge
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo damn
that short ugly
thing's voice is annoying.
mircea_popescu: "Dr. Keith Ablow is a psychiatrist and member of
the Fox News Medical A-Team." unintentional irony ftw.
BigBitz: mircea_popescu I get
the impression I don't even need
to be here for you
to converse...
mircea_popescu: he like knows and shit. he's like invented google, he's in
this
tech
thing. we.
mircea_popescu: we. you know, doctor a-blow is... somehow, don't ask how, part of all
this.
mircea_popescu: "We are deploying powerful
technology drugs
to our young people"
mircea_popescu: right. because doctor a-blow is now allowed
to put his opinions on
the same
table.
mircea_popescu: "Zuckerbergs obvious
theory (given
that he expresses no conscious desire
to do harm) is
that Facebook and
the Oculus VR are good businesses and good ways
to communicate and have fun. My
theory is
that Facebook is an addictive
technological drug
that, like every drug, gives people
temporary pleasure and, ultimately, causes many people
to become psychiatrically ill."
BigBitz: I'm saying some people
think
they can have
their cake and eat it. for free.
mircea_popescu: so you're saying
that
the notion
that someone googling bitcoin would actually fall for
the most
tired webscams is not exactly without basis ?
mircea_popescu: lol all
these fucktards spending on google ads for "bitcoin" for
their shitty fiat scams. "Bitcoin - Welcome Bonus, 1:10, Starting 100 "
mircea_popescu: BigBitz also, kinda
trivial
to verify address has been meanwhile emptied, doesn't show so good on
the proposed seller.
mircea_popescu: "cams will see
the person leave with
their own item" sort of
thing.
mircea_popescu: BigBitz someone explained in here why
this model is very vulnerable irl.
BigBitz: IT's
the release actions which have had flaws.
BigBitz: mircea_popescu it's not quite pseudo --
they get
the coin.
mircea_popescu: BigBitz not exactly different in effect
than
the pseudo-escrow.
punkman: did KLYE deliver
the harem pic?
BigBitz: sure but
that's as worthwhile as saying "here it is"
then moving it instantly.
cazalla: mircea_popescu: going back
to KLYE discussion earlier - do you
think
there is a market for insex
type content + bitcoin?
mircea_popescu: BigBitz in fact, local bitcoins could just verify a btc address signature, for
the same effects, not having
to hold any btc in
the process.
mircea_popescu: as
they say,
the best way
to sink a good
team with a good idea is a bad revenue stream.
BigBitz: speak
to jereamis I
think he's seen enough upside ;)
mircea_popescu: but
then again... hey. business isn't a skill we're born with.
mircea_popescu: so you know,
they just eat a pie of risk for no upside.
BigBitz: proof, at least,
there is bitcoin available.
BigBitz: mircea_popescu enforced in
the sense it must be filled before it can be
traded.
BigBitz: adds some validitity
to
the
trade.
mircea_popescu: BigBitz what i don't get is, why
the fuck would local bitcoins hold any bitcoins. just run it like craigslist, what do you want
to hold on
to
the risk for.
BigBitz: He
told me someone was stealing BTC from LBC using image based malware.
BigBitz: DoctorBTC in -otc was
talking/asking about image related malware.
BigBitz: the
time
the guy got away with 80BTC I found it and alerted jeramis before
they lost a lot of
their BTC.
fluffypony: Naphex: it's also really shitty on
the DC's part
mircea_popescu: Naphex yes. best part about it is
the "everything's safe, we got wiped."
BigBitz: Naphex LBC has been bit a few
times. I prevented
their last big one.
Naphex: just rebooting servers
trolol
Naphex: what is it with people not securing
their bootloader and datacenters
BigBitz: with preference
to
the cunting...
BigBitz: how do I get involved in
this counting and cunting action?
mircea_popescu: im counting
the money, he's cunting
the blondies, we got a whole system
BigBitz: or is
that just mircea_popescu ?
BigBitz: if you load it
to keyservers... yes :)
Hasbro: I
think I am registered with gribble
mircea_popescu: Hasbro now you can voice yourself here. reg with gribble and
then pm assbot !up
punkman: maybe nobody has bought ads on
that
mircea_popescu: at 9k per month for a spot in a rotation,
this is NOT being picky.

mircea_popescu: hey, what
terminally ill gpg implementation do osx folks use ?
bounce: static only content only, obviously. I'd set it up if aws let me sign up (which
they don't--need phone and cc and
then
the derping really starts. what do
they want now, my first born?)
mircea_popescu: and if i wanna punish someone, but i mean, REALLY punish
them
