asciilifeform: perhaps this
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: what just fell out from between some pages... I seriously forgot I even had this x that fell out... << http://imgur.com/dG7MOMB
benkay: he probably got taken to the cleaners by several different people several different ways
benkay: it's just this crazy mess of overlapping concerns
Duffer1: ya the "walked away with 202000" made me cringe
BingoBoingo: I seriously forgot I even had this x that fell out, and kind of forgot what the x was...
Duffer1: looks interesting, I have added it to my list
BingoBoingo: Duffer1: Penrose's Road to Reality
BingoBoingo: If anyone else wants to read RTR I recommend starting with Chapter 29 and then moving to chapter one
BingoBoingo: Oh, page 58, doc one, some gigaVPS preferential treatment
benkay: (Iain M. Banks, The Algebraist)
Duffer1: I did that with Perdido Street Station
ThickAsThieves: i just buy The Alchemist for people ;)
ThickAsThieves: need to take a flight somewhere to catch up
ThickAsThieves: juggling too many books now...
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I actually have a copy of Mathematica from this Dubious "Edx" thing. Apparently it is some sort of mook for pushing software?
ThickAsThieves: been wondering why the fuck everyone loved the guy so much
artifexd: Huh. I enjoyed Reamde. Especially the discussions of in-game economics.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: piratebay, then 'mathematica'
BingoBoingo wishes he learned to beat machines into doing math instead of learning to do math personally
asciilifeform: ThickAsThieves: reamde was, imho, total garbage. i was about to lose respect for neal s, but then heard that it was actually written by a chum of his
BingoBoingo: But does Stephenson have beautiful prose like "It is still unresolved in an 'absolute' sense. Kurt Godel and Paul Cohen were able to show that the continuum hypothesis (and also the axiom of choice) is not decidable by the means of standard set theory." Chapter 16 page 5
Duffer1: i loved that book btw ^.^
BingoBoingo: Fine, I'll pause Land of Lisp and get to it.
asciilifeform: if you folks only ever read one book i mentioned, read that one.
ThickAsThieves: done with doc 1, not a lot to highlight...
BingoBoingo: Yet anothing thing to read
asciilifeform: i should note that the idea is lifted from neal stephenson's mega-backbreaker 'anathem'
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Far from enough to finish these filings
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: either too much vodka, or not enough
BingoBoingo: copumpkin: I know, but the scenario submitted some hours ago where asciilifeform clears the entire court docket because of poor signatures isn't a think we might as well read what is entering the court records as they presently exist
copumpkin: so yes we know that patrick had a large account :P
BingoBoingo: Page 45 clarifies that Patrick Harnett did indeed have pirate exposure (page meaning sheet and not the quarterleaf the transcriptionist for some god awful reason assented to)
ThickAsThieves: "I tell you what. I'll give you a very detailed explanation of how the Tor Network works and how Tor mail works, and you can understand what I mean ... It's designed to not be trackable, not be traceable by any form of government."
BingoBoingo: Thermos because when you fuck up that much, you don't get the privilege of presenting yourself as an exemplar of Classic Greek values like sodomy
Apocalyptic: as Thermos with the "r" ?
BingoBoingo: ThickAsThieves: He was clever enough to get three quarters of a million BTC under his control. It would make sense that he could try to frame things such that he admits to being a turd, but not that ponzi wop kind of turd
ThickAsThieves: the wya he tells it
ThickAsThieves: it's almost believable this wasn't technically a ponzi
BingoBoingo: I should have got a bigger bottle of Vodka for tonight.
artifexd: "I lent 202000 bitcoins to Mr. Big Man and never got them back" <- LOL
ThickAsThieves: they start antagonizing him over why he didn't perform days worth of computing analysis on the blockchain to provide more useful data
copumpkin: lol, pirate doesn't believe for a minute that goat's real name is chaang noi
benkay: "If you can adjust the price of bitcoin on your own through some market manipulation after you get them back from Big One, what do Big One's promises about what the price of bitcoin is on Mt. Gox matter?"
BingoBoingo: Well, Moustakiswas the one to Bring up Gibson's last name, and the cubby white kid known as Goat is only refered to as Chaang Noi as far as I have made it so far.
copumpkin: kind of annoyed that he keeps saying I have his password, although it doesn't seem harmful
copumpkin: I don't try to stay anonymous :)
copumpkin: have you tried googling my nick?
ThickAsThieves: "Q: So a year after BST collapsed, you sent 202000 bitcoin to somebody who walked with it?"
ThickAsThieves: well how much would it have cost him back then
copumpkin: you can't just pull money out of thin air
ThickAsThieves: an interesting thing that seems to be happening is he expresses full intention to make everyone whole, something he feels he could achieve, but SEC froze his accounts
BingoBoingo: I just can't believe Number 2, is this fucking Austin Powers?
benkay: "Bitstamp, you're now the replacement to MtGox. Don't screw this up."
ThickAsThieves: but what's interesting to us might be other stiff
ThickAsThieves: the underline what's interesting to them
copumpkin: man, I'm in this thing a ot
benkay: where does the good stuff start, ThickAsThieves?
ThickAsThieves: he used people's accoutns to mask tx's
ThickAsThieves: no this is referring to your savings account
copumpkin: but I don't give my passwords out and would be weirded out by someone else giving me their
copumpkin: see, that does not ring a bell with me at all
ThickAsThieves: but that the records are generally accurate
ThickAsThieves: he mentions he used your account for other things
copumpkin: this thing is long as fuck
copumpkin: I haven't gotten there yet :P
ThickAsThieves: wow they go thru every single pirate account holder one at a time...
BingoBoingo is tired of Scribd, digs out the old PACER login
BingoBoingo: We might have to rent a Llama for all of the drama
kakobrekla: maybe someone pretended to be him
BingoBoingo: Prolly best to leave the strings out and fill the Trojan with Spartans
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: also only a moron - or someone trying to shift blame - leaves readable strings in a trojan.
copumpkin: ThickAsThieves: hah, where's that?
BingoBoingo: "No, it is just a certification company where you have to take the tests to become certified"
ThickAsThieves: someone he returned coins to
kakobrekla: thats what you get when retarded webdevs make exchanges, for the seventy fifth time
Duffer1: it's the shavers testimony
BingoBoingo: Wait, is there trouble in veggie prison?
ThickAsThieves: "and when did you first give your forum password to Copumpkin?"
BigBlox: thanx kakobrekla and mike_c in the place to be!
kakobrekla: yes thanks mike_c :)
BigBlox: ok, thanx anyways, all good, it probably registered late :)
BigBlox: how about my btc transaction, doesnt that show the time i sent the bet?
mike_c: but if you want to try and prove, use those charts on coinmarketcap. from what i can tell, when your bet was registered, aurora was at around 4.5
ozbot: The first line of defence is taken
mike_c: i had the wrong time. it actually looks like you were late
mike_c: no, don't thank me
dexX7: fyi: blockchain.info is broken, https://blockchain.info/block-height/288788 misses 225 transactions (ids: http://pastebin.com/gsa0c3iQ)
Duffer1: Thickasthieves thanks for that, pretty amazing stuff
mike_c: the line is at the wrong time.
BigBlox: other than that i'm not sure what i can give you :/
kakobrekla: ;;later tell mircea_popescu put the whip back in.
BigBlox: i took this right after it hit: http://imgur.com/mXt6XUa
kakobrekla: ;;later tell mircea_popescu get the whip out.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Pirateat40 does indeed have an outstanding criminal complaint, but that is related to domestic violence
mike_c: in that i am feeling generous tonight, and i think he's right:
Duffer1: prove you bet before the outcome was known, regardless of when bet closed
BigBlox: what can i provide? my bet went live on the ledger on the 3rd? you guys kept the bet live until today, not sure how that isn't enough
Duffer1: big one and number two.. anyone taking bets one of those was goat?
BingoBoingo: Need to read moar to see if Gibson is beneficiary
