to have a bot posting RSS feed updates
to channels, but it was some Ruby crap and blew up
ThickAsThieves: <asciilifeform>
ThickAsThieves: would be interesting
to see a widget like 'metafilter' with a 1btc entry. <<<< i recall at least a couple "idea men" saying
theyd make similar
things

tree?
mircea_popescu: dude, if you got a seed plant it already, forget
the flower. what, keep it in your pocket
till it becomes lint ?
mircea_popescu: art can be for
the viewer, but
that doesn't necessarilyu mean google analytics is meaningful.
benkay: moreover, its mostly
the firm's partners
that
the joke is intended for, not
the
typists and accountants.
mircea_popescu: it's like "o dan's joke was so much better, even sammy from
the mailroom was here"
mircea_popescu: this novel nuttery with
the readers. who cared, cca 1970, when
telling a joke, how many people in
the office were gathered round ?
ThickAsThieves: i happen
to believe
that art is for
the viewer, not
the creator
mircea_popescu: in other words : public fucking and private fucking aren't even
the same fucking.
they don't replace each other.
mircea_popescu: anyway, buncha people have blogs, which imo is
the best
thing.
pankkake: maddox.xmission.com used

thing we know, we're all moving into a cult commune with a hundred years of canned food and auto-turrets... >>> and nudity for womenz under 35 ?
benkay: cryptome doesn't have an rss feed for
that matter
pankkake: I know a blog
that has *only* a RSS feed
benkay: shit, i don't want readers who don't curate
their own reading lists!
benkay: i don't want readers who can't subscribe
to an rss feed on
their own
pankkake: so readers go
to one place if
they wish, but bloggers are where
they want
pankkake: benkay: yeah.
that's why planet's better; everyone blogs how he sees fits,
the planet aggregates
ThickAsThieves: itd work way better
than all of us
trying
to start our own
thing
ThickAsThieves: kako should just add a blog section
to
the #b-a website

title"
benkay: there is also
the glitter fingernail polish approach
pankkake: the images would
then be comparable by a machine
pankkake: is
there any way
to
take pictures in a reproducible way?
pankkake: video feed would be sent
to
the expeditor, obviously
pankkake: hm, I'm not sure
the second part solves anything
pankkake: the future is drone delivery with complete video feed of
the fly path, with blockchain
time proofs!
pankkake: it won't prevent
tampering by highly qualified bad guys
pankkake: well,
that was
the best I could come up with when
thinking about "signing"
the hardware
pankkake: I was
thinking of some sort of cryptographic seal; you'd have
to activate
the device in some way
benkay: i want
to know how NSA plans
to address
the in-shipment diddling of computer bits by fiat organizations.
pankkake: perhaps ship
the device in
two parts?
benkay: i'm
thinking about
this mid-delivery interception of computer bits and pieces
to put hardware on 'em before
they hit
the data center in a fashion
that
the end-customer is generally never wiser
benkay: othis mid-delivery interception of computer bits and pieces
to put hardware on 'em before
they hit
the data center
pankkake: of course, only big businesses were affected,
the software was
there for regular people
benkay: how is
the cardano protected from RNG diddling?
pankkake: I remember
the stupid laws we had in France, where anything >128 bit was forbidden
pankkake: "it's probably going
to be illegal
to use encryption" history repeating itself!
gribble: pigeons was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 6 weeks, 4 days, 3 hours, 19 minutes, and 8 seconds ago: <pigeons> should make an exact mpex clone with no new functionality just charge 5%
to view it in a bootstrap
template
benkay: i
thought
there was no voting in
the future, just
the decisions of btcholders.
benkay: mircea_popescu: you're all over
today man. first it was what's more appealing
to
the bell curve and now it's about who gets
to vote on a
thing.
benkay: more about nature of derpy average humans - most don't care about
the
tyrant under whom
they sweat.
mircea_popescu: i wonder which is more appealing
to
the average person.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile my motto is "fuck with me and maybe you'll live
to regret it"
ThickAsThieves: if
the NSA motto is "If you have nothing
to hide, you have nothing
to fear"...
mircea_popescu: (real encryption. you'll have
to use apple/google/ms/w/e)
mircea_popescu: it's probably going
to be illegal
to use encryption in
the us soon enough
