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
mircea_popescu: lying is a scammer's true nature.
ThickAsThieves: you beat me to it
ThickAsThieves: lol, she leads her twitter description with
fluffypony: "Happily married // Committed to ever after // Champion for innovative technology & policies that empower people // Director of Public Affairs"
ThickAsThieves: look at this bullshit https://twitter.com/TheRealAltcoin/status/462960434652667905
fluffypony: Hasbro: hair chalk is the solution
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.
mircea_popescu: Naphex which is why it sucks being the government.
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: https://www.e-licitatie.ro/Public/Common/Content.aspx?f=PublicHomePage is a famous case i think ;]
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: not that this isn't how it'll end up working
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.
BingoBoingo: Don't forget the key escrow
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.
mircea_popescu: Naphex i gues they never heard of gpg still huh.
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: "Zuckerberg’s 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."
mircea_popescu: "think of the children!!!1"
mircea_popescu: "there is no fda in the tech space!!!11"
mircea_popescu: welll... they can definitely... eat it.
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.
mircea_popescu: yes ok. but that can be done many other (better) ways
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: fuck that. it's nonsense. you can't enforce escrow.
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.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo up to arsenische atm.
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?
fluffypony: "cunting the blondies"
mircea_popescu: im counting the money, he's cunting the blondies, we got a whole system
BigBitz: or is that just mircea_popescu ?
Hasbro: can’t fap to that
mircea_popescu: wow a bait that didn't suck.
mircea_popescu: this is how we know the earth to be banana shaped
mircea_popescu: BigBitz mac ppl. what do they know of lulz.
mircea_popescu: kinda why they're called public keys. to be public.
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: punkman so i checked two sites randomly from those deck guys. one doesn't load at all (http://www.yayhooray.com/) the other does not show the ads (http://butdoesitfloat.com/)

Hasbro: how do I send that
mircea_popescu: hey, what terminally ill gpg implementation do osx folks use ?
mircea_popescu: but then i signed up for an aws micro
mircea_popescu: i used to have a first born
mircea_popescu: prolly work as abortifacient too
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: i give them one week tech support on that line.
mircea_popescu: and if i wanna punish someone, but i mean, REALLY punish them
