xanthyos: why wouldn't i?
punkman: if I wasn't already smoker, I'd probably start right about now
punkman: so I sometime get redirected to "Verified By Visa" page, always click "No thanks" button. This time it was disabled. I enabled it and clicked, didn't work. Decide to fill out the fucking form, didn't work. Maybe I should post form again...
xanthyos: pokerstars auth isn't as complicated as gpg so you might want to have a policy that each player has to prove themselves in irc before each game
xanthyos: pokerstars is my favorite but i can't buy in from the US
punkman: I don't really play tourneys n stuff
mod6: oh, good question cazalla. i don't know. might have been.
cazalla: wasn't point score reset like 3-4 months back?
assbot: .libs/libgcrypt.so.18.0: warning: stpcpy() is dangerous GNU crap; don't use it - Pastebin.com ... ( http://bit.ly/1Aio8Rg )
TomServo: I'm surprised ol' Brucey Bruce isn't parroting the "OMG NK!!1" line.
thestringpuller: "There's the field that I keep threatening to quit computers for: plumbing. One plumber I dealt with once told me that he makes more than most doctors. Of course, you have to go through a long apprenticeship and journeyman period during which you don't make nearly that much. "
thestringpuller: haven't seen TaT in here for a minute
BingoBoingo: That doesn't seem healthy
asciilifeform doesn't laugh
BingoBoingo: Laugh, but I can't get USD.

thestringpuller: i wouldn't mind the risk so much if the chance of accidents also provided a chance of developing super powers
BingoBoingo: I don't have a problem with climbing. I have a problem with the possibility of falling.

asciilifeform: but the answer to the puzzle of what sun used for logic synthesis - i haven't any idea
BingoBoingo: Well, isn't that all Open SParc is?
asciilifeform wasn't there, didn't make this, has no idea how much plagiarized heathen 'verilog' etc. is in that thing.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: http://www.computerra.ru/112660/mcst-and-micron-releases-monokub-mb-with-elbrus-2cm-cpu << i don't feel like translating, but - first ru-designed cpu, afaik, this century - hits the press.
jborkl: Haha yeah we don't want to shit on by the panda
BingoBoingo: Come on there isn't a single personal server need that isn't well served by emacs.
asciilifeform: neglected detail being, most of the participants, as i understand, aren't ideologically moved
decimation: but then they wouldn't 'open source' anything
decimation: the only incentive I can imagine is if the chinese gov't decides to subsidize the project
decimation: as asciilifeform has explained in the past, this isn't in their 'dna', but who knows
decimation: it's sad that some enterprising chinaman doesn't try to steal fpga designs/warez
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: For a long time ARM wasn't either. The point is it exists at the moment mostly to build history so it might seem a credible option later.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: afaik it isn't exactly a flying success.
BingoBoingo: Don't worry. China is baking up Loongson so that there will be another turdwarez platform when the USG can no longer prop up Arm.
asciilifeform: iirc, it was designed by a woman. i won't psychiatrize on this point, but let's see what mircea makes of it!
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: thx, but i don't need these for anything
asciilifeform: http://labs.online.net/try-it << doesn't appear to work
asciilifeform: the latter isn't simply a non-reprogrammable fpga; it has the LUTs of fpga, but with 'wiring' baked into the metallization layers, rather than fpga-style switching fabric
asciilifeform: afaik it hasn't happened yet, even.
assbot: Huge salt spill at Morton Salt in /hashtag/Chicago?src=hash. Will they shovel it over their left shoulders? http://t.co/Ic8vAUuedb
BingoBoingo: The worst part of this clusterfuck of errors is I haven't even had a drink yet. Fucking language learning app on the new pet android device robbing my brain of all of its glucose.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: the Spiegel wasn't writing about the official Christmas dump
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: just read the bloody things, there isn't all that much to read.
BingoBoingo: It's the option the Castros are taking. They just haven't left yet. Raoul is Probably hoping Fidel can get a dignified state burial before he jumps ship.
BingoBoingo: The family line of succession probably didn't help things. Man who did things, Son of man who did things, Son of Son
asciilifeform: basic rules include: 1) don't be a loud, solitary point source. anywhere. ever. 2) spread spectrum, frequency hop, cryptographically driven 3) steganographically mix into existing spectrum garbage. ☟︎
Vexual: thinking "why can't i do this at home?!?!?"
devthedev: cazalla: I'm quite surprised you didn't win the Changetip contest during the Bitcoinbowl
cazalla: i imagine litecoin bagholders won't be too happy about being back at #4 according to coinmarketcap ha
BingoBoingo: bitstein: It isn't going bad.
davout: b00lcrap: i can't believe it's still going on
davout: don't gpg-sign a webpage yo
davout: yeah, i'm implying that it shouldn't be *that* surprising for a PDF
danielpbarron: can't get rid of it and it's just another attack vector
Overand: but getting that across the *world* would t ake a lot of power
decimation: 100 khz channel ain't gonna happen on HF
Overand: haven't tried since i improveed my antenna situation
Overand: i don't think i've worked 80 down
Overand: That's funny, I would have guessed earlier than that, but I suspect the keyserver doesn't lie.
Overand: Heh. If this is what you consider the threshold I must to clear to "matter," and I didn't "matter" before, then my worldview continues to be wildly different from yours.
decimation: probably won't change unless something forces the government's hand
decimation: but at the same time, don't tie the hands of folks who can 'make it out' of the reservation
adlai: well, zoogoers don't usually want to live in the cages...
adlai: Huxley's "reservations" are actually a fairly moral solution for a welfare-free technocracy: exile people who aren't contributing to the society, but don't shit in their reservoirs either.
decimation: mexicans actually do work pretty hard, I don't mind them so much
adlai: in the parts of the middle east that i feel qualified to complain about, the arabs aren't sitting on enough oil to import workers; although israel is making the most from massive refugee flows from darfur, eritrea, etc
decimation: eh, I guess I don't get the immediate moral assignments of money
adlai: https://www.thevenusproject.com/en/faq#faqnoanchor <- you can't make this shit up
adlai: so holding bitcoin isn't depriving anybody else of anything, except for bitcoin
adlai: fortunately, the scope of interactions with the typical modern fiat institution isn't limited to "friend or enemy"
adlai: 99% of this channel doesn't see my roommate's atrocious dishwashing habits, or lack thereof, as a problem - because they're not aware of them.
decimation: on the other hand, 99.999% of the world doesn't see it as a problem at all, and a good portion of them also see it as a government's duty
adlai: that article doesn't say much of anything about money printing
decimation: If there anything immoral happening w.r.t. money, it's the free printing of it to benefit the few
adlai: it's also worryingly difficult to find daily/monthly volume... shouldn't this number be prominently displayed on any exchange's landing page?
thestringpuller: adlai: finally, an exchange that likes liquidity! << yet they don't post volume?
adlai also doesn't
decimation: if you are in the us, don't you owe ordinary income tax on every gain you make?
decimation: I guess you don't need to 'physically' settle a transaction to close your position
ben_vulpes: if you don't say anything now she's going to take it as tacit agreement.
cazalla: all this drama is on account of one of her friends currently en route to ussa and her crying that she has a kid, can't do shit atm
cazalla: surely bitcoin is more established by then that i don't have to backhand her on the idea
cazalla: well 1) they wouldn't let me in anyway, persona no grata 2) fucked if i would let her take my son into that viper pit without me
decimation: b00lcrap: black people didn't destroy america, the cultural marxists who infantilized blacks and waged war on regular working people did
BingoBoingo: b00lcrap: Don't forget methed up white people and hardworking shades of brown in between.
mircea_popescu: this means they don't have to make sense, or even consider their actions.
ben_vulpes: discovered that 0.5.3 doesn't have the create/sign raw transaction facilities :(
assbot: https://t.co/Ous275BdJ1 is now online! NEWEST bitcoin HYIP! Already $20USD invested in less than 2 hours of launch! /hashtag/hyip?src=hash /hashtag/bitcoin?src=hash /hashtag/invest?src=hash
joecool: well it's not like i haven't been around here before, you know?
joecool: so is there a new sploit in the wild doing reflection attacks with wordpress? we got a pingback from trilema but we don't have it showing up in our logs (and we don't show up in the ones trilema posted)
BingoBoingo: I don't think the word the mean to use was "shape"...
BingoBoingo: "Damn it why couldn't this have been sponsored by Dogecoin? Can you imagine the amazing midfield logo?"
BingoBoingo: So, the Qntra Bitcoin Bowl Recap hasn't gotten the best reception: http://qntra.net/2014/12/bitcoin-bowl-recap-nc-state-wins-34-27/#comment-4911
cazalla: thestringpuller, nah, didn't even ask to go for a drink, fkn canadians eh
asciilifeform: Apocalyptic: you don't need 30 of those. no existing company is equipped to fully utilize the output of 3, much less 30.
asciilifeform: i don't think it is a mystery, to anyone even remotely connected with the sordid business, what it was that he meant.
asciilifeform: unless mr. 'i want to hire 30 great programmers tomorrow morning' wasn't writing from a psychiatric hospital, the parsimonious hypothesis is that he meant something other than inventors when said 'great programmers.'
asciilifeform: or otherwise 'can you play violin? don't know, i've never tried yet'
decimation: "But this whole discussion has taken something for granted: that if we let more great programmers into the US, they'll want to come. That's true now, and we don't realize how lucky we are that it is. ... And if we don't, the US could be seriously fucked."
