ozbot: MPOE, March 2014 Statement pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
mircea_popescu: the new and much easier to read mpoe statement :
antephialtic: man, israel just owns the US. How is it that Israel and Palestine are the ones in conflict, yet, the US is making concessions??
ozbot: Covered California Sends Deaf Callers To Hotline Offering ‘Hot Ladies’ « CBS Sacramento
mircea_popescu: check that shit out. falling, srsly ?
ozbot: BitBet - Bitcoin difficulty to fall
antephialtic: it would probably be easier to just bribe a gmx employee
antephialtic: i've tried before, but after 3 (uninformed) guesses, the account got temporarily locked. Seems pretty reasonable to do over a long period of time (assuming gmx isn't smart enough to stop it)
mircea_popescu: well how would we know what someone tried ?
antephialtic: i doubt he was dumb enough to leave any identifying info there, but it would be interesting nonetheless
antephialtic: random question: anyone ever tried to reset satoshi's email password before? only required info is birthdate
nubbins`: snowplow just came and pushed the contents of the street back onto my front step. gotta get back outside
mircea_popescu: kinda looking forward to a full edition mp space cadet kbd.
antephialtic: its a bit sentimental for the crypto-anarchist type, but I enjoy it nonetheless
antephialtic: surrealist fiction. highly enjoyable. I recommend the Land of Laughs
mircea_popescu: nubbins` lmao the switch is in here : http://trilema.com/2011/cum-se-bate-femeia/
nubbins`: ^ is that a button or a switch? ;D
mircea_popescu: there's haves and then there's have nots, see ?
mircea_popescu: no, that you have to do.
nubbins`: you don't HAVE TO write your critics into subsequent novels as micro-dick diddlers either :D
mircea_popescu: not anymore than you have to be "professional" on tardstalk or w/e.
mircea_popescu: you don't HAVE TO option the book
nubbins`: but that's the way it goes
nubbins`: almost all of his novels were eventually made into shitty movies, ghosts of their former selves
nubbins`: anyway, lels aside, he wrote good fiction. his early stuff -- the andromeda strain, the terminal man, the great train robbery, eaters of the dead, congo... all good
nubbins`: character does not appear elsewhere in the book."
nubbins`: "In March 2006, [journalist Michael] Crowley wrote a strongly critical review of State of Fear, focusing on Crichton's stance on global warming. In the same year, Crichton published the novel Next, which contains a minor character named "Mick Crowley", who is a Yale graduate and a Washington D.C.based political columnist. The character was portrayed as a child molester with a small penis. The
nubbins`: crichton was interesting in that he's the only novelist i can think of who included a lengthy bibliography in each book
mircea_popescu: anyway. me leling at the pseudoscience of others does not promote me to the rank of pseudoscience author.
ozbot: State of Fear - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
mircea_popescu: by now that's pretty much become my "close page" cue
mircea_popescu: who's that ?
mircea_popescu: nubbins` ya srsly, how about you make a much bigger board ? this topic deserves some attention
nubbins`: i even forgot the "global warming" button
nubbins`: jurov i wanted to strike while the iron was hot ;(
jurov: nubbins`: you forgot to draw welfare/socialist button
nubbins`: i, for one, am looking forward to warmer summers, if not a drastic increase in the price of food
mircea_popescu: because the tropics suck ass, because they had run a welfare system for centuries.
jurov: southeast asia will be the next
mircea_popescu: mass migrations out of the tropics have been a thing since the 50s
mircea_popescu: jurov well mass migrations out of oceania seems to be against your definition of oceania
jurov: as long as the problem don't cause mass migrations, it's fine
antephialtic: the only credible thing about that was that it is known their site is implemented in ruby on rails
mircea_popescu: antephialtic there's reasons we don't trust coinbase after all.
antephialtic: I asked them to pastebin it, then the guy told me to fuck off :)
mircea_popescu: jurov everyone is going to have problems sooner or later anyway. that's the definition of problems.
antephialtic: mp: yeah the hacker claimed to have found a file on their server called "compliance_dailysftp.rb" that uploaded a daily dump to IRS/FinCEN/FBI
nubbins`: trying to make the best of this april 1, the weather isn't helping
jurov: but in tropics, everyone who lives in few meters above seal level is going to have problem sooner or later
jurov: here the north sees sea level going down because glaciers melt and earth goes up because of reduced weight
mircea_popescu: they also released the known but apparently not widely known fact that coinbase is forwarding all tx history to teh us alphabet soup on a daily basis.
ozbot: Sea Level Trends - NOAA Tides & Currents
antephialtic: when all they really had was the emails, and they were trying to get some idiot to buy their fake dump
antephialtic: yeah I suppose they could have just used the emails to google for the names and then released that as a "partial dump"
mircea_popescu: as someone said, when therer's a cockroach in plain sight, that's never the only cockroach around.
antephialtic: anyways, its just alarming because the full name stuff is apparently real and doesn't seem possible to have been acquired by the email enumeration attack
mircea_popescu: tickle the volcanoes, make a whole new "oceania"
mircea_popescu: jurov no but seriously, what, some coral reefs ? some volcanic islands a mile wide ? this is something someone should care about ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform forwarded you some mile long email, mostly because i have no consideration for your time apparently.
mircea_popescu: it's not canned, i make them up fresh.
jurov: ah "not a thing"... another mp's canned reply
mircea_popescu: has nothing to do with this
antephialtic: the hackers claim to have actually pwned coinbase
mircea_popescu: oceania is not a thing
nubbins`: don't i just feel silly for shovelling a walking path down the middle of my street
antephialtic: mircea_popescu: that is the aformentioned user email enumeration issue
ozbot: Twitter / Mircea_Popescu: http://t.co/KE3CB9NVZq Today ...
jurov: prolly he'll just call them stupid and move on
antephialtic: I don't have any funds in coinbase, but they are a major point of centralization
nubbins`: someone shared this in -otc earlier
antephialtic: and offered to give password hash + last 4 digits of credit card if I pm'd him my email (which I didn't)
antephialtic: but the hacker also has names associated with accounts
antephialtic: they had a security issue that allowed user accounts to be enumerated, and I suspect that is the problem, that scammers are trying to combine that with fake info and sell as a real dump
mircea_popescu: except you know, they are "professional" and thus fail to communicate.
mircea_popescu: i suspect one of the biggest mistakes ever would be to try and rescue the stupidity of global warming by semantics.
mircea_popescu: deck the halls in boughs of snowy
nubbins`: one of the biggest mistakes ever was referring to man-made climate change as such
mircea_popescu: nubbins` tis global warming.
nubbins`: i'm waiting for mother nature to pop out and say APRIL FOOLS LELELEL
thestringpuller: they don't get spring time

cads2: yes romanian nerds will hack some shit, but we'll also take some shots, snort some blow, and play with some women.
cads2: I wonder if in romania nerds simply fail to be socially inept
cads2: she couldn't connect the idea of someone really smart with the image of someone really socially inept
cads2: I failed to be able to explain to my romanian cousin the notion of "nerd"
