BingoBoingo: Thanks, I'll give it a try before looking into giving up on making an late 80's machine relevant again.
asciilifeform: run strace on the process, if it is blocked, and see where.
BingoBoingo: It might take up more room, but I'm considering giving one of these a go http://www.ebay.com/itm/SUN-Ultra-80-Server-Quad-450MHz-4GB-Memory-73GB-HD-/111200002029?pt=COMP_EN_Servers&hash=item19e4095fed
BingoBoingo: NetBSD the 68k version
asciilifeform: what's the os on that box?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Key generation is still continuing. Either the entropy is really good or it is relying too much on virtual memory to try to accomplish this which... I think defeats the purpose if there are going to be a bunch of hard drive writes of the process.
BingoBoingo: I think I might have to give up on creating a GPG keypair with the Mac SE/30

abrabtc: hardly seems worth TaT's time
pankkake: it used to be the opposite
abrabtc: it's interesting that the asks for smg passthrough on havelock are lower than the bids for s.mg on mpex. must say something about the value of holding assets on havelock vs. mpex.

mircea_popescu: but apparently this is a different thing
mircea_popescu: originally i thought it's cryptostocks
pankkake: if by home you mean begging on the streets
mircea_popescu: "- The system is similar to BTCT and Litecoin Global, so security owners from there should feel at home!"
ozbot: [ANN] Crypto-Trade now allowing users to create their own securities
pankkake: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=331952.0 this is going to be fun
pankkake: ahah. I wonder what's their life expectancy
davout: just don't buy the driving school cars
Apocalyptic: I've seen it used by car companies for promotional buybacks, otherwise I don't know how thoroughly it's followed
pankkake: I've seen more problems with new cars than with older ones :p. at least you know the older one has eliminated the bigger defects
Apocalyptic: pankkake, you mean the ARGUS thing ?
benkay: it's just for new cars, the immediate depreciation. there's some psychological value to
benkay: hilariously - cars are a better store of value in argentina than pesos
benkay: keep their money in cars and land
benkay: also argentinians expect it at this point
thestringpuller: maybe they're banks don't ask many questions?
mircea_popescu: amusingly enough, people STILL put money in their banks.
mircea_popescu: argentina does the same about every 15 years.
mircea_popescu: so. chryser is bankrupt. bailout : govt gives them 10bn in govt backed credit. bailin : govt orders anyone who ever bought a chrysler car to pay 1k to chruysler.
mircea_popescu: a bailin is when a government confiscates third parties funds to save a failed business.
mircea_popescu: a bailout is when a government spends from the tax chest to save a failed business.
thestringpuller: what is the inverse of that?
thestringpuller: a bailout is when someone gives someone else a bunch of money to save their ass
mircea_popescu: jurov i suspect the us will fail like argentina, yeah.
jurov: only that in ar it didn't end yet
jurov: i think it will end up more like in argentina, official rates faster and faster divorced from actual market ones
pankkake: then I could switch my system to track it directly in BTC
thestringpuller: i was talking about inflation with that pronoun it
thestringpuller: to bitcoin, because if/when it goes out of control, there will be a different unit of account btc
pankkake: I have a feeling fiat inflation is going to explode sooner or later
mircea_popescu: as bitcoin settles closer to something like 1mn us whatevers, then fiat inflation will be more visible.
mircea_popescu: in this sense fiat inflation is a rounding error, you'll never measure it.
mircea_popescu: fiat loss of value is a tiny fraction of bitcoin increase.
pankkake: I'd like to have some sort of long term graph, in the sense that having bitcoin go up in value while the currencies it is tracked against lose value by themselves, is not that useful
mircea_popescu: or w/e, "which is a way to explain the economical usefulness of things like bitcoin in classical terms"
mircea_popescu: which is why things like bitcoin are economically useful.
nubbins`: what this boils down to is that the aforementioned basket, for all its flaws, is still the best solution
pankkake: and gold, well. though I can use price feeds from people who trade physical gold, it follows the rest
pankkake: indeed, and that taxation vary from year to year (one of our government's genius idea was raising the beer tax - yes there is a tax specifically on beer)
nubbins`: alcohol is generally subject to varying levels of taxation from country to country, so it doesn't make as good a barometer
pankkake: though they probably update it only once a year
pankkake: good one too
mircea_popescu: and tjere's no such thing as "a pizza"
mircea_popescu: thats what i'm saying, there's not been a better solution than pull a basket out of ass
pankkake: gold is the easy one, perhaps oil too
pankkake: and I'm looking for something sexy like "how many pizzas is a bitcoin over time"
pankkake: yeah, I know those ones, but first of all the ratio is usually pullet out of someone's ass
mircea_popescu: the only way this was ever done was a composite basket sort of thing.
pankkake: to be clearer, I'm looking for things with price feeds
pankkake: what kind of things could one use to measure inflation? there's the obvious gold, but I'm looking for other things, like pizzas, oil…?
nubbins`: ^ there's been a lot of this happening around the house lately
ozbot: imgur: the simple image sharer
