mircea_popescu: i mostly pay people to internet for me.
nubbins`: talk to people?
nubbins`: so how do you know who's going to trivia night on tuesday?!
kakobrekla: goes to twitter to tell the world, "i dun use social meddia situes"
mircea_popescu: except i guess twitter but i don't really gas if x is y or not there
mircea_popescu: so basically what, they scrape social media sites for snippets signed by x sig ? a la gribble except spammier ?
copumpkin: mostly because I want more people to use gpg
copumpkin: I like the service
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: I dunno, they're pretty, and seem to provide some nice identity linkage stuff that seems handy. Otherwise, not much point :)
mircea_popescu: copumpkin so why do i want to use them ?
BingoBoingo: I know. People who care go to SIU.
copumpkin: ultimately, they're mostly a fancier keyserver
copumpkin: so they have a website that lets you link online profiles and a command-line tool that talks to the site and calls gpg
mircea_popescu: dude brandeis is where the mass governor's escorts go to school.
copumpkin: as far as I can tell, their goals are: 1) provide a standard mechanism to link online accounts in a crpytographically secure way that doesn't require trust of their servers 2) make gpg more user-friendly
mircea_popescu: "I graduated cum laude with a degree in philosophy from Brandeis University and received my J.D. from the University of Michigan Law School"
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: They used some javascript in the layout it seems. Works ok in the factory firefox install, not in the useful firefox install though
Azelphur: so no, then xD
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: keybase.io, does that look like something you'd use?
mircea_popescu: Azelphur you can freely trade mtgox debt for bitcoinica debt on a 1:1 parity
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo does that page look as broken to you as it does to me or is it just a case of "our designer made it look good in chrome"
copumpkin watches MPOE crash to 0.000000001
Azelphur: mircea_popescu: what's your opinion on the whole gox thing, think they'll get back up after a while? :P
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: See, like the Groupons of the Illinois legal game
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: will I get some sort of confirmation when the key is accepted?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i finally clicked your link. DO THESE ATTORNEYS EVEN LEAFT!
nubbins`: as you can imagine, tossed salad brings jelly-covered anus to mind
mircea_popescu: copumpkin clearly secure then :D
mircea_popescu: nubbins` if that's your ocmplaint what about tossed salad ?
mircea_popescu: copumpkin try it ?
nubbins`: it's too bad they're called that in english, because it's kind of a rotten name for a food
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo maybe they has ? tbh the dumbledore lawyer guy sort-of evokes jackie chiles for me.
nubbins`: i think i mentioned it at the time
nubbins`: i made refried beans for the first time last week
BingoBoingo: What is it with people trying to do anything in Illinois and not realizing you have to buy whatever jurisdiction you want to operate in, either outright or as a time-share
mircea_popescu: obviously, as you'd imagine, my view is that the world is split among the assholes that admit it and the assholes that don't.
mircea_popescu: hallo we are 12 and don't need to worry about our asshole.
copumpkin: I'm sure that's a huge surprise to you
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: I'm firmly in the "don't be an asshole" camp :)
mircea_popescu: "So, we don’t have to worry about Japanese laws and how they apply."
copumpkin: so you want to be a politician
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: where would you say you fall on the political spectrum?
mircea_popescu: talking about how it's a "natural extension of their practice" and whatnot
nubbins`: best thing that ever happened to illinois was a sufjan stevens album
mircea_popescu: they wanted to do the suit. it's clearly a zerocost thing.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo the law firm is the key there.
mircea_popescu: it's impossible to keep track of keyservers and i kind-of gave up.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Still looking at the legal history of Illinois governors, being a n00b and being pissed about Gox because he was too good for warnings makes his Derping rather inconsequential in the history of embarassing things about Illinois
copumpkin: I want to encrypt my email to office but I can't find the key for it
copumpkin: I don't think I bought enough of it back then
copumpkin: I don't think I can even afford one bentley though
copumpkin: BingoBoingo: nah, trying to remember how much I have
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: office@polimedia? that's where the old one went
mircea_popescu: well technically you could extract some sort of email from gpg keys, but i never bothered to.
copumpkin: (goes to show how active a user I am)
copumpkin: should I just email you the key again?
mircea_popescu: copumpkin mpex may be the only entity in bitcoin which has gone two years without sending a single greatly informative and muchly important email blast.
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: I guess you have no way to contact me or even any knowledge of me having an account :P
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Really the point of Ukraine as of now isn't the end political outcome, as far as that bet is concerned. It's determining how overtly "Black Ops" can happen in a white people country before commandos have to have affiliations, because Geneva protocols and conventions and such.
copumpkin: that was a thing?
mircea_popescu: copumpkin did you ever re-email it as per teh verification last year /
copumpkin: says to email you my key but I did that long long ago :P
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: I keep getting unrecognized signature even though I'm using the same key I used to sign up :(
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I though the Internet was strong enough people know electric boogaloo's are sequels.
mircea_popescu: <nubbins`> as much as i'd like to move overseas to wield a can of raid << lmao
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo maybe people dunno wtf boogaloo is supposed to be
moiety: ok, not paying you twice so will pay in alcohol
moiety: BingoBoingo: you're right, you can prop up the bar
BingoBoingo: moiety: Honestly if you want to open a bar the best place to position your business in relation to me is one such that I am a customer.
nubbins`: as much as i'd like to move overseas to wield a can of raid
moiety: omg i have it all planned out, we could totally do a bar. bingoboingo barman, asciilifeform doing the laser lights, nubbins` sorting pest control, bugpowder green flourescent protein glowsticks, benkay on music and mircea dancing girls!
BingoBoingo: I'm rather surprised http://bitbet.us/bet/769/crimea-2-electric-boogaloo/ isn't getting more action yet as it focuses on the most important precedent this recent crimea lulz covers.
copumpkin: oh you have the key in the page
moiety: i thought it be ok because they were small things BingoBoingo btw there is people opening a dog cafe and a cat cafe in london. edinburgh seems to have none.....
nubbins`: ty, that works
BingoBoingo: moiety: I though we touched on that problem when you presented the plan. Stamping metal with a hammer is tiring work
nubbins`: somebody give me the elevator pitch on buttercoin.com
MisterE: or is that a scouser thing?
MisterE: fuck that
moiety: lol actually... i hadnt thought of that.. "sorry your order is delayed.. i'm not very fit and i got tired making it"
BingoBoingo: moiety: Yeah, much better than a decision where you have to stamp every product and in the process look like Rosie the Riveter. Being Bitcoin's source for Scottish shit sounds like something worth trying.
moiety: BingoBoingo: i decided what to do with my btc domain. im making a scottish item shop. not giving up on my stamping plan though
nubbins`: there's a dick surgery song where it's discussed that the details are also in the pudding
mircea_popescu: an' teh poofs are in the pudding
nubbins`: charlie's in the trees, pete's in the logs
moiety: my bathroom is very clean, i will say that
bitcoinpete: I'm off to bed, then I'll be in the logs as usual.
bitcoinpete: It's incredibly late here in bruxelles but I thought I'd leave my latest von blooog post for your casual readying enjoyment.
mircea_popescu: moiety it's not that bad. wear something loose.
moiety: is it very bad? they have to assess rented flats every two years by law my letter says
nubbins`: something like 2 dozen people in an old folks home died in 2012 i think
nubbins`: there were a few big legionnaires outbreaks in canada the past couple years
mircea_popescu: moiety take moar cold showers.
moiety: my house is to be assessed for something called Legionnaires apparently.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: There's quite a few other nastier diseases than lyme. Lyme just gets the press because pseudo-medicine makes better news.
moiety: like this ^
nubbins`: aside from, y'know, the elements.
nubbins`: there are actually relatively few things that can kill you here
BingoBoingo: I mean I don't trust bedbugs because they fuck by cesarean. Ticks though carry all kinds of nasty diseases and fumigating "The Great Outdoors" is difficult.
nubbins`: cbc is actually interesting today
