artifexd: ;;later tell Mats_cd03 What irc client are you using?
mircea_popescu: blurden who are you perhaps the more instructive question.
mircea_popescu: tg2 the problem with your approach is that protocols are designed and implemented by they involved, not by the armchair generals. tis not up to you or whatever random derp on reddit to "draw up guidelines", there's no government of the people in bitcoin. there's government by bitcoin opf the people.
Neil: Also the genesis block was 2,536 times harder than necessary. Which is odd. It held the record for 1430 blocks.
Neil: Block 266381 was good for 110 trillion difficulty!
Neil: Something I'd wanted to know for a long time; now I can produce this easily: http://pastebin.com/7QSb6ypA
mircea_popescu: zacm: so this is disconcerting to see the lemmings on bitcointalk cheer on us gov action against mpex people. bitcoin community must be eagerly anticipating govcoin i guess << i wouldn't read too much into the derpage of a coupla tards tbh.
mircea_popescu: haha i got my hitler paintings today.
cazalla: so lose 10% to cypriot banks, lose the remaining 90% to neo?
BingoBoingo: VanCleef: Is that the thing neo bailed out for no damned reason?
BingoBoingo: Pirate disappeared a quarter million BTC, TradeFortress disappeared 4000, Danny disappeared 1200. Soon we will get down to a single BTC being a newsworthy heist
cazalla: those commercials are prime candidates for new subtitles aka hitler finds out type style
chetty: agreed, that and the derps inventing stuff about MP in trouble
antephialtic: i don't have any money in neo. its just annoying to see another implosion that makes bitcoin look stupid to the rest of the unenlightened population
chetty: the sky is falling, the sky is falling the sky is falling
BingoBoingo: The thing read as though "I wanted to go insolvent on my schedule, but I deposited with people who went insolvent first"

VanCleef: but yeh i hope MP books a flight to russia soon
BingoBoingo: This is the problem that happens when Facebook is allowed to IPO and a shitty Facebook game is allow to IPO soon after
antephialtic: well I guess bitcoin is really going to take off in cyprus now
VanCleef: i knew there was something wrong when i seen pictures of their office
BingoBoingo: Seems like it as his solution to Neo's lack of money is trying to take his equity in no money for someone else's money to acquire his worthless equity
peterl: I wonder if the line between his money and NEO's money was not clear enough?
BingoBoingo: The thing is he seems to describe it as neo's money
peterl: I just started a new thread for people to continue the discussion. I doubt, however, that he will answer in it.
VanCleef: lol aweomsome now they are locking the thread
Mats_cd03: id love to see code for that
benkay: (i think he's kidding)
benkay: "In several cases my changes take the form of a Turing-complete program that dynamically modifies the upstream source code in several attempts until it passes tests. I’m not kidding."
Mats_cd03: embeds tweets and pastebins
Mats_cd03: holy fuck this irc client rules

BingoBoingo: stompysteve: Who is to know that Neo Danny wasn't some orderly who stole coma Danny's identity
stompysteve: what does he have a fake family now too lol
stompysteve: mpex got him tied up
MisterE: maybe the scammers disappeared him
stompysteve: you would think someone would have maybe made like a half ass statement or something by now
stompysteve: where in the world is carmen sandiego
asciilifeform: rather than plain stripe bits.
asciilifeform: yeah - but the new turd craps out a blob rsa'd to square's public key.
nubbins`: (this is the same sort of jack that headphone+microphone combos use)
nubbins`: wellllll, still a tip-two ring-sleeve jack
asciilifeform: (original 'square' reader was usable by any machine that had a 3.5mm headphone jack)
asciilifeform: the more realistic explanation is that they didn't care to see people write magstripe stuff using their reader
MisterE: yea cloning is trivial and has been I don't buy it
asciilifeform: most cards have multiple tracks.
MisterE: thats exactly what I was thinking when I saw it, old tape recorder
asciilifeform: as if these had any trouble buying chinese readers
asciilifeform: excuse was, if i recall, that scammers will use the reader to lift cc #s.
nubbins`: suppose you could make one out of an old tape recorder and a few lines of objective-c
MisterE: pretty good side by side comparison, obviously the old model is just a magnetic head
asciilifeform: amazing what people are willing to spend on inserting antifeatures.
nubbins`: MisterE yep, turn a tablet into a PoS
nubbins`: wow, look at that.
MisterE: Ahh these are for smartphones
MisterE: I'm so glad I hang out here and dont have to track all these scams by myself
joecool: asciilifeform: good to know, i need to dig around and see if i have any of the old style
asciilifeform: i set the 'bozo bit' on 'square' when they caved in to the FUD and replaced their purely-analogue card reader with an elaborate crypto turd
MisterE: you can keep the extended warranty service too.
MisterE: I'd just like to buy the bullion without the numismatic part sir
nubbins`: MisterE: it's a real thing, imagine ;D
nubbins`: nah, he's smarter than that
joecool: i was looking at the gox db leak, he moved coin out of there pretty quickly, i do not think he was one of the big losers in there
nubbins`: but yes, at the time he stopped, he no doubt had a massive pile of btc
kakobrekla: how much are the empty ones?
nubbins`: so all the poor rubes go "ah, less than 2x face, great deal", thinking that's how coins are priced.
nubbins`: because "less than 2x face"
kakobrekla: should make a special btc logo featured turdtwister
joecool: it's like the miner market, OVERPAY FOR ANYTHING WITH BTC STAMP ON IT
nubbins`: joecool i've seen rubes offering upwards of 25btc, but this is a guaranteed loss.
kakobrekla: also whats with the brass hate
joecool: nubbins`: what are the 10BTC silvers goin for?
nubbins`: unfortunately kako already used the largest eyes possible
