ben_vulpes: expend the set of people doing the thing and the copyfascists won't be able to keep up
ben_vulpes: Беркем аль Атоми << i don't even know how to find out more about this short of...learning to read russian.
assbot: Notes on Increasing the Maximum Bitcoin Block Size (or, "Why it ain't happenin'")
asciilifeform: and man, to mold, doesn't boggle ?

decimation: ghengis kahn wouldn't bother with a contract either
undata: asciilifeform: man don't put that on your dick...

decimation: If there's a bridge that you voted against and the gov't built anyway, would you use it?

mircea_popescu: and i mostly don't give a shit, either.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that didn't parse.
mircea_popescu: but your point doesn't work, seeing how... there isn't a way.

mircea_popescu: cause he can't get the articles.
undata: they haven't gotten anything done in 20 years

undata: the laws aren't against the app
mircea_popescu: somewhere your thinking's broken but i don't readily spot where. wtf are you on about, "dropping that risk to nigligible" ?
mircea_popescu: undata it wouldn't do anything. you're basically saying, "carbon credits will permanently solve the eco whining". no, it provably won't.
asciilifeform: decimation: anyone ask them? (do you remember being asked? i don't)
mircea_popescu: don't try to buy a special, "private" hammer.
decimation: well, it wasn't an design goal
asciilifeform: (who, it appears, believes that organized stampede is the answer. well, doesn't really believe it answers the puzzle, but thinks it wrong not to at least try)

mircea_popescu: you just don't understand how the world works.
asciilifeform: anything that isn't bolted down, will be shaken loose. very soon.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform myeah, "anything that isn't bolted down" or how did it go.
asciilifeform: pruning << the shitgnomes don't dare a hardfork. so they'll happily try a 'lossy softfork' - see how much functionality can be degraded (in this case, how much of the blockchain can be alzheimered) without hardforking.
decimation: I don't even get how gavin's post is an economic argument
mircea_popescu: and if she did say this sucks, i have no way to know. which isn't consistent with the "smart" rating, sadly.
ben_vulpes: i finally got helm dialed in (and oh my god, i didn't know that emacs could get that much better

mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes it's a lousy fix for a serious problem that "doesn't exist" because logics
mircea_popescu: undata the heel is metallic, but doesn't seem threaded...
undata: well I guess I wouldn't know, but seems like ouch
cazalla: makes me wonder why mr hands didn't opt for a toy like that, must've been the horse itself
mircea_popescu: Bomber with a bomb, off to kill you! If you're not an idiot, you'll shoot it down. Either you do, or it kills you! If it kills you, this brave plane, then he's a brave patriot and you're just as idiotically dead. On the contrary... well... it's a sore plane. Very sore plane. Otherwise, he died a patriot, flying a bomb your way, wanting to kill you. But lucky for you - you weren't an idiot.
cazalla: aren't they both?
mircea_popescu: can't make deviled eggs without salt pickles fro crying out loud
cazalla: they don't say, i'll send an email
asciilifeform: i don't like what english does to 'c'.
asciilifeform: i simply didn't zap win32, left it for other folks
ben_vulpes: doesn't matter.
asciilifeform: i'd throw it in 'nosuchlabs.com' but the turd lathe undertaking isn't really mine.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: string 'pnp' shouldn't occur in the resulting tree
asciilifeform: don't shit in the kitchen, don't eat in the toilet
asciilifeform can't really picture woman playing this game
undata: TheNewDeal: sure fatal wounds but if you're offing yourself, aren't there quicker ways?
undata: maybe paper wallets provided there's anywhere to spend one in person (there isn't)
bounce doesn't object to ascii-only. 80 cols max while at it please.
nubbins`: cazalla only the frequencies i don't really use
asciilifeform: doesn't help.
bounce: re nanotube running out of red, bit of a sign the communication isn't working, so more of the same isn't really the proper answer.
asciilifeform: '...since there're SO many Sega 64s floating around in the States and indeed, the world, there's probably many people alive today who wouldn't be if their governments could crack their secure messages. I'm told that at least two democratic revolutions were made possible, in part, due to PGP S-64. Right now, myself and several others are attempting to create a version of StegoSaur for the S-64. That one extra
asciilifeform: wasn't it illegal to have a game machine with rng << reminds me of...
cazalla: Mikayla, how is that harsh? i just said i don't really care, i just go for low hanging troll fruits
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform wasn't it illegal to have a game machine with rng ?
asciilifeform isn't especially good at it either, and can't even remember how he was provoked into doing it
asciilifeform: anyone who can't build that one, has problems, given as it is almost virginal
Adlai can't tell whether "popescuity" is related to pope or promiscuity, or both
punkman: mircea_popescu: I was thinking I could be grabbing reports straight from comments, so you don't have to make pastebins
Adlai: i wasn't too near it ten minutes ago either
Adlai: couldn't you commission one with a larger value engraved, based on how much you want to store?
PinkPosixPXE: yea, I don't like the .1btc limit, but if i had one for novelty, eh..
asciilifeform really still doesn't grasp the preoccupation with 'physical bitcoins'
mircea_popescu: but in any case, men tend to hurt women and women can't really get themselves to kill me.
mircea_popescu: i dunno, maybe it's the fact that women actually know how much fucking energy goes into making men, and don't so well manage to ignore it. or because they're emotionally clingy. or simply because that's how genders are hardcoded.
assbot: I just funded my absolutely GORGEOUS /hashtag/kialara?src=hash cold storage /hashtag/bitcoin?src=hash token! https://t.co/1hi8mpUgpP http://t.co/y00aQO2Tws
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: women suck at killing men << elaborate. doesn't the invention of light small arms sorta even the odds ?
mircea_popescu: isn't the sandworm from dune essentially an animated shit ?
mircea_popescu: well i guess yo uat least don't wish you were a pony LIKE SOME PEOPLE

mircea_popescu: not saying you shouldn't want em, but still.
mircea_popescu: undata but you see why you can't have them, right ?
undata: mircea_popescu: I've told you what I want; you tell me why I can't have it.
mircea_popescu: right ? so, no. the problem isn't govt being deliberately evil.
undata: mircea_popescu: in the wake of a collapse wouldn't there be warfare to be expected?
Mikayla: I don't give those sort of details :/
mircea_popescu: and militias won't ?!
PinkPosixPXE: yea, I'm terrified of Mexico, despite people I know who still will vacation there. No thanks, I don't need to take the risk.
Mikayla: that's reported - which many aren't
mircea_popescu: to make perfectly clear, my issue here is this : if one knows (from the news) that a) X event happens and b) (the news) isn't reporting it frequently enough and c) )(other parties) aren't taking enough action,
