that altcoin marketcap bet
mircea_popescu: i bet you some nigger* fuckwit somewhere
thought "o hey, nobody can oppose
this SCAM because it'd be raycest!!11"
mircea_popescu: we need more pianos
to catch lots and lots of fingers in
punkman: "During
the first phase of
the MazaCoin pre-mine,
the
Traditional Lakota Nation as represented by
the BTC Oyate Initiative will pre-mine 25 million MazaCoins as
the starting point of a National Crypto-Currency Reserve.
This reserve is critical as a symbol of national sovereignty, and vital for
the future of MazaCoin. "
mircea_popescu: sometimes i wonder if
the "entrepreneur" scum even knows what idea means.
punkman: "KAM Analysts have come out and established
the opening price for MZC at $1.00 USD as a opening price. "We felt
this was a reasonable opening price with
the Alt Market
the way it is currently, Dogecoin is setting around $1.17 in some exchanges and MAXcoin is still right around $1.28."
ozbot: Calling out
the Bitcoin Foundation Scam.
mircea_popescu: 428 satoshi on 29-09-12 and 506 satoshi 26-01-13 being

mircea_popescu: soo...
turns out
this was best dividend in s.mpoe history.

benkay: yeah man how does one
teach good crypto hygine
to kids?
jurov: not
to say it's implausible, people can believe in anything
jurov: yes. but hannah's would only work if gpg would be akin
to religion... only zealots could
think of giving such responsibility
to a child
benkay: the "whet" not
the "what"
ozbot: Shall be Delivered |
The Whet
benkay: the one about
the kid and
the keys
jurov: for
the competition?
benkay: i've completely failed
to dig it up
jurov: oh what happened
to mpoe-pr ???
jurov: just a disaster bound
to happen
jurov: iirc every word in english sentence adds only 4 bits or so...and if one strips if
to first letters
jurov: everyone gets all heprderp and
then comes schneier "just
think of a sentence and use first letters"
benkay: and diced passphrases are way better
than
the shorter, random ones
benkay: oh i agree - forgive me for giving
the impression
that i
think diceware doesn't work
jurov: benkay just
try it, it's easier
than it sounds
benkay: i want
to use my keys regularly.
that entails memorizing an absurd passphrase and using it all
the
time
to forestall neuron rot.
dignork: entropy is lower
to a gibberish of comparable length
jurov: that's what nsa wants you
to believe
benkay: it's a more general
tradeoff: convenience/security
jurov: they have
the same entropy
dignork: jurov, my mail account is a phrase, but
the only reason i keep it, is
that most cases it remembers me via cookies
jurov: not
to mention remember
jurov: i found even 50 char long passprase easier
to
type
than 15-char gobbledygook
jurov: did you actually a)
try it b) did
the math?
benkay: anyways, diginork, it sounds like
the critique you're leveling is
that "people will stoop
to holding
their keys unencrypted if used frequently"
dignork: jurov, easy
to remember, but entropy is low, a lot of buttins
to punch, broken hands, loss of qualification, death
jurov: dignork: afaik nobody yet refuted
the diceware method (randomly chosen words, easy
to remember and still hard
to crack)
dignork: to sustain bruteforce, keys need
to be crypted with long meaningless password, security is hard and boring :(
benkay: sure. best practices come into play with
the bruteforcing.
dignork: same scenario with crypted keys, he will have
to bruteforce
them
dignork: benkay lost nardware==lost key
then
BingoBoingo: I
think Altcoin has been
too cheap for
too long, I'll give it a night or
two and maybe I'll act on
that
thought.
dignork: benkay, at some point you'll decrypt you gpg key, so you won;t have
to
type in
the password for each
time you auth
benkay: upside is better hygiene via frequent use of
tools; downside is...incentives
to grow lazy?
benkay: so crypto is dangerous, right? what are
the risks of randomly asking people
to auth?
benkay: it'd be a fun experiment if assbot randomly asked people
to auth
Apocalyptic: you will
then be banned by gribble for like 10 minutes which leaves him
time
to auth properly
Apocalyptic: <dignork> benkay, i could dos you from authing, by reissuing 'eauth benkay' // only up
to a certain point
BingoBoingo: benkay: Yeah, but
that is exactly why Mutually GPG signed contracts are
the future
dignork: not
through gribble
though
benkay: i can always demonstrate control of
that key
to relevant parties, so i'm not convinced
dignork: but
that's not a serious flaw
benkay: ideally stego is rarely
touched
tho
benkay: so a
thing
that helps is
that your otc link is always
the same
BingoBoingo: benkay: Yeah, so many shortcuts if
time was known
benkay: so a key
to maintaining good crypto hygiene is
to use it all
the
time, right?
benkay: hey BingoBoingo race you
to auth status
benkay: this is what i was freaking out about
the other night
BingoBoingo: Imma still kind of wrapping my head around BingoBoingo being a bigger name
than legal Firstname and Lastname
BingoBoingo: So, morel of
the story, NBC is way
to full of itself in its previews
BingoBoingo: Oh,
the difference between me an 2013 Bitcoin bastards is I come with my dirty laundry up front
BingoBoingo: I am not brave enough
to drive under
the influence
BingoBoingo: What would I know, allegedly being a criminal and all of
that.
BingoBoingo: Multivac: Are you insinuating you aren't a pig like
the rest of us?
BingoBoingo: Carlos Martinez had a wall of
twitter favorites
that was nothing but pink expressed by girls of a rainbow of colors
Multivac: go
to kat.ph and reload

the ad of girl jiggling but
BingoBoingo: Multivac: I can load
the Gif, but for some reason
the cert is untrustable
Mats_cd03: it poops on my brain each
time i recall
that 99% of GOOG profitable revenue is from ads
Multivac: i like some of
the ads at kat.ph
BingoBoingo: And I would like
to monetize a section of
the sidebar
BingoBoingo: Mats_cd03: If you even say
that player is Google
Mats_cd03: theres only one ad player in
the game and
they dont do btc
BingoBoingo: Multivac: I mean a
tool where I can sell x by y pixels in my sidebar
BingoBoingo: And I do mean
tired over
tried. It is now as worn as some dude's mom.
BingoBoingo: I
tired one for
two weeks and it was forced into scam
BingoBoingo: Multivac: You know of any reputable web advertising platforms
that pay site owners BTC?
Multivac: It is a web wallet pretending
to be an iPhone app.
BingoBoingo: WTFOMGBBQ was Coinpunk anyways, I
though
TSR handled
that
