xanthyos: i guess 300 wasn't low enough a buy price
mircea_popescu: seriously and why miners actually aren't given that much of a voice in bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: it doesn't matter WHAT the other, larger altcoin is. even if it is "nothing at all" : for as long as most miners are mining "nothing at all" then the altcoin Bitcoin is in danger of being stomped.
mircea_popescu: tripleslash:so watch for a noticeable permanenent 40 petahash drop over the next few difffchanges << it's pretty noticeable they DIDN'T have 40 ph.
davout: !t m x.eur
adlai: i'm almost certainly being MITMed (who isn't?), and i'd be surprised if the men in the middle are shitty enough to leak it as protocol errors
Naphex: adlai: as far as I see, btc-e definitely has SSLv3 disabled. So if you got that message you're either being MITM'd and the trapper device is failing mac'ing messages, or who knows what. you shouldn't be receiving that error
Naphex: that doesn't look good at all
cazalla: don't be playing that one BingoBoingo
BingoBoingo: punkman: You aren't desoxyn. Heisenburg persists without you
cazalla: silicone afaik, can't win em all eh
cazalla: you don't want to wake up feeling as i did a few days ago
cazalla: don't forget to drink some water before bed BingoBoingo :)
BingoBoingo: People don't understand BPA makes me haet moar
assbot: So /hashtag/Bitcoin?src=hash didn't work. Good work banks! We all will still work to end you, only now we have nothing to lose. Neat combination.
ben_vulpes: (dun really think the two models would interact much, but also i don't know much microbio)
gribble: Error: User doesn't exist in the Rating or GPG databases. User must be GPG-registered to receive ratings.
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: It is a toxic waste processing plant in your body... and you can't get rid of it.
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> a bum, like a total, street dwelling bum, accosts some random guy begging. and the random guy goes like "ain't got nothing now", and hands him his coke bottle. << ok so i've got this crazy pet notion about maté and viral load
tripleslash: 12 hours isn't really an indicator. its like flipping a coin one time to figure out if it is balanced.
tripleslash: stumping for con artists was a past hobby of mine, although I didn't know it at the time.
tripleslash: nope. I was attempting to demonstrate why 12 hours isn't enough time to accurately measure hashrate, but apparently failed.
tripleslash: I'm glad I didn't waste my time reading it then.
cazalla: the article wasn't based on no math.. it was based on what cex said on their blog and their website and i finished it by saying that despite these cloud miners being fucked, the network goes on with or without them anyway
cazalla: tripleslash, i didn't!
tripleslash: but you certainly can't figure that out based on the number of blocks generated in the next 12 hours.
tripleslash: doesn't mean their bid will amount to much.
BingoBoingo: If... Someone can come forward with a lot of PH/s for sale... I can't say I am incapable of bidding.
tripleslash: haven't heard TF in a long time
cazalla: i didn't use any math tripleslash
tripleslash: but that doesn't mean I'm ok with you using fuzzy math to justify it
cazalla: i don't think so but please, explain
tripleslash: 12-24 hours isn't enough time
cazalla: tripleslash, yeah i know, i just don't really care enough about these guys to go chasing up the current hash rate and doing some math to figure out if a 12-24 hour drop is because they turned miners off or if no drop in hash rate proves they never had miners to begin with
cazalla: felipelalli, i did, i don't know enough about CEX to call it either way but fact network continues to grow without them raising some questions
BingoBoingo: The thing is... Agent Broachwala showing up at your doorstep won't make you persona non-grata, but cooperating with agent Broachwala will
mircea_popescu: i suppose the part where satoshi pretty much left because he couldn't believe just how fucking idiotic gavin is doesn't really make the cut of what reddit likes to discuss huh.
mircea_popescu: Gavin Andresen: Um... I haven't had email from satoshi in a couple months actually. The last email I sent him I actually told him I was going to talk at the CIA. So it's possible , that.... that may have um had something to with his deciding"

mircea_popescu: http://qntra.net/2015/01/winning-poker-network-roll-out-bitcoin-depositwithdrawal-option/ << cazalla did i hear they don't actually honor withdraws ?
mircea_popescu: you know it doesn't do anything right
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> ben_vulpes i imagine the point was to humiliate through the low bar. << It isn't the mass, but the on-demand
ben_vulpes doesn't into the irony today
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> [] what's 3 oz refer to ? << can't really b'leev that 3 oz of weed makes anyone anything
BingoBoingo: Pretty sure he can't unless...
mircea_popescu: "oh look, what mp said back in october when he was being nice about it is a lot easier to follow than what he's saying now, once the fuckwits in question ignored the polite approach. isn't it mp's fault that gavin is an idiot!"
mike_c: ok, this isn't hard. i'll do the maff
BingoBoingo: <mike_c> gribble is on crack << crack doesn't work like... that...
cazalla: yeah, that's why i always use with_replies for other's feeds, it's such a stupid fucking setup the way they have it, timeline isn't even a timeline these days with it not being in chronological order
assbot: “/BBoingo: /benjammingh I use GPG, you suck a big bag of dicks. /thegrugq”< http://t.co/MnynJ1pjzW
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Most of All I hope I don't have to find out.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo hopefully we don't get to find out.
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: I can't blame you though if you hit the portal vein instead of the carotid.
svetlana: thanks, i can't be bothered to register with gribble
[\\\]: If it was the channels, this nick would get just as much, but it doesn't.
BingoBoingo: [\\\]: You let Pirate expand your butthole enough it gauge that gauge isn't the right unit of measure anymore, own it.
BingoBoingo: Nah, SOL isn't applicable anymore because they charged it.
BingoBoingo: The local DA refuses trial because they might lose and I don't really care because fuck them, RESPECT MY AUTHORITIE!!!
WolfGoet_: can't even visit japan as a felon...
BingoBoingo: Now Charlie before he reports to jail wonders why people don't want to collaborate with him.
BingoBoingo: Well, assbot wasn't the obstacle.
BingoBoingo: Look fucker with the all special characters name. I can't up you until I can tab autocomplete your name.
WolfGoet_: don't know anything bout that stuff, but if I was facing 30 years....
assbot: Here's what they don't tell you when they bring you those papers to sign pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1z2Muzc )
BingoBoingo: I mean it isn't like cables are broadcast antennas or anything.... <sarcasm>
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: I actually gave attending that school a bit of thought as I was making choices, but... a more local small liberal arts college was offering a deal where I particularly wouldn't have to pay tuition to them. Best not to question the past though. I could have ended up some doomed postdoc in Oklahomo if I went to St John and actually read all of those books too young.
BingoBoingo: I haven't had the chance. Lately I've been trying to chew on Lucretius.
PeterL: ;;later tell pete_dushenski your blog is on scoopbot's list, he just doesn't like you for some reason. I will look into it
danielpbarron: Basically anyone who doesn't update their software will not be able to see the new blocks. They will be on an old network that would no longer be "bitcoin" - until they updated their software. It's very likely that this old network would have no transactions because nobody would bother mining it. --reddit
cazalla: why would you use whatsapp and imessage if you want privacy? almost reads as if he is goading people into using it because it's hip and cool and he doesn't want you to use it
mircea_popescu: "I don't understand why this is difficult to understand and literally I've said this three times in the past couple of days.
mircea_popescu: "Demand for Bitcoin is not inelastic. Raise the price of using Bitcoin enough, and demand will decline. Right now, the primary reason people use Bitcoin is not its security. That's a nice benefit, but most users use it because it's cheap, and has the largest network of users, merchants, exchanges, etc. The affordability and number of users shouldn't be compromised for security. In fact, doing so will inevitably cause s
BingoBoingo: But if you don't cross the streams you are stuck with a giant Marshmallow.
jurov rushes to check cex isn't among the D.*
cazalla: bitcoin_charlie: https://actioncrypto.com/ <<< how is this any different to updown.bt (launched April 2014, became a GOLD!! member of the bitcoin foundation but is now dead, didn't even make it to 2015)
mircea_popescu: which aren't particularly sexy, the whole sport is, "let's humiliate / torture her"
mircea_popescu: "4. You don't deserve to know any of that. It's none of your business. I invited my readers to chip in on a project--or not. I did not invite you to worm your nose into every aspect of my life, hunt down pictures of my home, call me names, or tell me I was worthless, arrogant, greedy, and undeserving. But you want to rip me bare and expose how awful you're sure I am. I get it, you want me transparent. How much more tra ☟︎
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla: you need to get one of those cardanos. << lol it wouldn't be legal.
mircea_popescu: it doesn't work on electric flux, but "communication" flux
jurov: the airgap isn't about technology, but about being in complete control
davout: so if you don't put a light emitter on the airgap machine you necessarily end up with a one-way airgap, right?
davout: just don't put an emitter on the airgapped machine, no need for fancy semiconductors :D
mircea_popescu: semiconductors aren't insulators.
davout: guess that doesn't really count as an airgap if there isn't a manual step
davout: wondering about what makes sense and what doesn't here
davout: mircea_popescu: yeah, no argument here, does it come with t-shirts?
davout: mircea_popescu: if i don't know how it works and how i take it apart i ain't buying it :D
mircea_popescu: i don't mean no straws or nuttin.
mircea_popescu: a bum, like a total, street dwelling bum, accosts some random guy begging. and the random guy goes like "ain't got nothing now", and hands him his coke bottle.
pete_dushenski: i don't know if you grew up in compton, monaco, or rural shanghai
danielpbarron: you want his opinion of a "bitcoin business" that doesn't have a representative in the WoT?
pete_dushenski: bitcoin_charlie: But he does not like me very much :) << eh. probably not anymore than anyone else who doesn't listen to his free advice
bitcoin_charlie: Wanted t get Mircea's opinion

mircea_popescu: bitcoin_charlie didn't you make a plea bargain ? ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: um it isn't ?
