t do that"
jurov: easy. don'
t live in flood prone areas.

t depend on not being flooded
mircea_popescu: punkman that is total bs. women don'
t walk on their heel. like, at all.
mircea_popescu: hm. actually, the fuck she wouldn'
t. of course she wouild, nobody cares *what* she claims.
mircea_popescu: i guess these known affectations are overpopulated and so don'
t hold as much perceived cachet,. huh. random tramp invited for her tits and drunken antics at some party wouldn'
t get away with claiming she's the real niece of napoleon's first wife quite as well.
mircea_popescu: you know, they don'
t make these diplomats of the same substance they used to.

t think bot can write this
X-Rob: mircea_popescu: the problem is, it's not that people don'
t care, is that' they don'
t want to learn. They go 'magic internet money', and that's pretty much it.
X-Rob: I saw an amusing comment on reddit yesterday, on a photo of someone climbing a massive radio tower. They said 'You couldn'
t pay me enough to do that', and someone responded with '72.6 billion dollars. Per hour'.
X-Rob: But, woe, your hashrate didn'
t mine that block. p2pool got it.
X-Rob: My idea is, if I had bet on pool B mining block, and I controlled access to hardware that would bias pool B to mine the block, why wouldn'
t I just mine at pool B? I would win the bet -and- I would earn whatever percentage of the block the hardware earned, which would probably be more than 25% of the block reward.
mircea_popescu: and spare me with the "miners will know", there have been three times in history, including today and recently, pools which split their rewards across to pretend like they don'
t have 50% of the hash rate
X-Rob: Wether or not they MINED the coins is a different question, but I can'
t see any advantage in pool C mining coins for pool B
X-Rob: mircea_popescu: Well, p2pool is a specific case, and I probably shouldn'
t have used it, because that's one of the ones you /can/ be 100% certain about.
jurov: i don'
t get this. changing "root" address will help how?
jurov: and you don'
t give a fuck
punkman: mircea_popescu: yeah but why wouldn'
t the miner bet on himself
jurov: • What happens if the miner is known, but wasn'
t one of the betting options?

t been determined by the above methods, we roll the prize money over into a future race as a cherry bonus.

t believe anybody still listens to the food police
BingoBoingo: The gluten thing is just because some members of the species don'

t have many compilation/dependency problems any more, but it's not progressing very much as a distribution

BingoBoingo: For that announcement I imagine Obama wearning Mr.
T's gold chains
mircea_popescu: which is why i'm kinda curious of what you mean, cuz it doesn'
t seem much represented.
mircea_popescu: jurov well they kept the us mentally in check, so to speak. they're muppets in the fields of kansas, the best they can do is "we're better than x", very limited meanness. once no more x, there isn'
t a good reason not to patriot act all over the bed. i suppose that's the strongest reading of that.
Duffer1: looks like everyone they sent to is in WoT, but i don'
t see some of the bigger names from this chan

t been doing much for the past 30 years
decimation: asciilifeform: in other words, invent an alternative reactor that doesn'
t suck?
decimation: asciilifeform: perhaps if you can'
t move away from the reactor, your next 'defense' is to understand how it works so that you can predict 'danger'
xmj: jurov: well it shouldn'
t decimation: but this usually doesn'
t end well for anyone ie Napoleon
decimation: right? Guest: Government wasn'
t even a--close to Montana at the time these were formed, these were people saying, 'Gee, our cattle are mixing with one another and are breeding and maybe we don'
t want that. And if you put all your cattle where I put mine, there will be a tragedy of the commons.' "
mircea_popescu: "must has the state for i can'
t open the fucking door"
