nubbins`: ^ never
to recommend a bad movie again
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: But omission is a swell way
to
transfer information
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo omit :D
to emit is
the act committed by
the emittor of emissions, whereas
to omit is
the act of
the omittor of omissions
mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> asciilifeform: A number of watches still use silver oxide cells... <<
the better ones, anyway.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if it's safe enough for
the road it can't not be safe enough for
teh planes :D
BingoBoingo: Now... A lot of similar batteries in
the same form factor will emit
the long form labeling and
the naming
tends
to be less complete.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I changed watch batteries at a mall kiosk years back. I still see
them on
the shelves.
There's still many available
nubbins`: added 4 extra shirts
to an order, saved $15 by doing so
adolf_fishler: Dr. Gay Hitler, son of George Washington Hitler, was a local dentist, serving our community from 1922
through 1946 from his office on West Main Street.
TestingUnoDosTre: <asciilifeform> laughable at best - "ICAO does not consider
these changes will necessarily reduce incidents involving lithium batteries; but
they will significantly improve safety."

to
the bank
nubbins`: CIBC mobile app recently added
that feature
mike_c: the only
thing i use
the phone for is depositing checks.
that is handy.
nubbins`: i do banking on my phone more often
than i do it on my laptop.
mike_c: so hah! you do banking on your phone
too.
BingoBoingo: What is
this odd combination of bank, app, and mobile?
mike_c: my bank wants me
to update my mobile app with a new version
that can pair with bluetooth devices.
that makes sense.

thestringpuller: i feel like I should jump
the bandwagon for when it bubbles
BingoBoingo: Apocalyptic: It's just
taking... something...
benkay: mircea_popescu: would you
tell @patrickmcguire
that i broke
the canadian bitcoins story a month ago?
kakobrekla: its not a life and death situation is it? ill see re
that next
time we meet.
Apocalyptic: so kakobrekla how is
thing atc.blockr.io
thing going ?
they are integrating x-bt or not ?
nubbins`: declare
that you're not up, assbot fixes it
nubbins`: ah, i didn't get one
these past
two joins
dignork: "no such
thing as
taint" ?
BingoBoingo: MP had a good writeup on
the subject of Address reuse being good for certain kinds of privacy, but finding it might
take some digging.
dignork: BingoBoingo, when would you want
to disable change addresses?
BingoBoingo: There are a number of reasons
to want wallets with different kinds of behavior. For some purposes different change addresses is a bug.
fluffypony: and
the rest are all deterministic, including your change addresses
fluffypony: so you make sure you have
the privkeys backed up/written down for your random addresses
dignork: fluffypony, you can, but
then you'll have
to
treat your wallet as non-deterministic
BingoBoingo: I like
the Multibit interface more for handling multiple wallet, but I'm liking Electrum more and more as I play with it. I just wish
there was a good solution for handling both Deterministic and random generation wallets.
fluffypony: I really like Electrum, much more
than MultiBit
Apocalyptic: <jurov> and at least
they admitted
the problem //
that's not something you see everyday in
this industry indeed
BingoBoingo: fluffypony: More electrum servers is a good
thing.
jurov: and at least
they admitted
the problem
jurov: but i could fix
that by using ipv6
jurov: yes. except for one small case where
they insist routing of
traffic between paris and aws ireland via
the US
benkay: if you're not planning
to mine, fluffypony you might
try ipxcore
fluffypony: jurov: didn't even know
they have a VPS offering
fluffypony: pankkake: had an average-ish experience with
them a while back, will give
them another spin
artifexd: I knew
that. It just seemed like something you would write. Anti-CA and all.
fluffypony: any recommendations for a reasonable VPS provider
that won't
throw a
tantrum if I run a bitcoin node? DigitalOcean want me
to provide DNA samples and ownership of my unborn child
to allow me
to create a new VPS (despite having
two hosted with
them for
the past 18 months)
artifexd: Maybe it should be renamed
to Marvin
mike_c: it got pissed about
the new elitism.
artifexd: BingoBoingo: Did you write
that? ;)
TestingUnoDosTre: Funny comment from
the pi calculation slashdot article" Goddamn mathematician wasting precious ammunition
to have a statistics wank-fest after MY goddamn zombie apocalypse?
TestingUnoDosTre: Was worried
the world wide web was invented by a guy
that just recently wants
to format an opinion on password managers. Phew
BingoBoingo: Java programmers who merely stitch
together libraries and want embeded chips capable of running Java when a Z80 would be fine
BingoBoingo: Well, how much of computing has already been forgotten from
things alledging
to be curriculums.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I
think
this is probably your strongest case for why x86 has
to die
BingoBoingo: Really
this is just
the case of doing something already know yet forgotten and presenting it as a new scoop.
mike_c: i don't
think i knew what pi was in 3rd grade. maybe my memory is faulty.
mike_c: no. where did you go
to grade school?
BingoBoingo: Indeed. It is simply amazing
though
that it can be done with off
the shelf equipment from Walmart's sporting goods section
ozbot: Oberlin Debates Wisdom of

Thing
pankkake: mircea_popescu: about
the image board
thing, I don't know if
there is an actual demand. I'll see how expensive (in
terms of maintenance) it is in
the coming days
pankkake: or maybe you can commission
the rosebud guy
pankkake: I
think I saw a butt plug where you could store
things
bounce: the great unwashed and shutting up.
there's an idea.
though we'd be left with spambots. indiscernible, perhaps, but not an improvement.
dexX7: tweet
to american airlines: "Hi my name is Ibrahim and I am from Afghanistan I am part of al-Qaeda, and on June 1, I'm going
to do something really big day. . "
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: "If I believe at any point
there is value or use in
them I can just…
take…
them. If experience is any guide, I shall
take
them
the next day" << do you reccommend
that as a general strategy?
ozbot: Rotterdams meisje opgepakt na
twitteren over aanslag | RTL Nieuws
mircea_popescu: lol.
think of
the implications had
they discovered it in
the cod's
tail rather
than stomach.
bounce: wooden octagonal
thingy with stone balls, IIRC
bounce: they did used
to have
technology, like
that earthquake detector,
that
they subsequently forgot how
to make work. bit sloppy for a state
to forget its own achievements, and not even
the excuse of getting
toppled and replaced
bounce: you're saying
that communism has
turned out irrelevant
to
the chinese
