nubbins`: this isn't hollywood, i think that's a bit unrealistic
nubbins`: vs one teenager?
dub: rape everyone that refuses to pay
firedrops: past that, if they are dedicated, I believe a skilled martial artist teenager could defend against 1-3 attackers (depending on their skill)
firedrops: I can say for sure that teaching anyone under 13 self-defense is useless for self-defense, but great for self-confidence.
nubbins`: don't eat the ceviche
nubbins`: i know a badass woman who teaches self defense classes
nubbins`: on that, we can agree
benkay: accept that the world is a dangerous place and that children need to know how to kick people in the nuts at the very least
nubbins`: well, how big are they?
benkay: who learned how to grapple ten years ago
nubbins`: a 10 year old, for that matter?
nubbins`: what's a 5 year old gonna do to stop an attacker?
benkay: i think this is the root of the "rape culture" bs
benkay: ah nubs again with the pedantry. at a young age.
benkay: if you don't teach your little ones to defend themselves, injuries they sustain because they're unable to defend themselves should be laid at the parents feet
nubbins`: the way you say that, i don't think you've ever tried to teach anything to a 3 year old
benkay: standing game and ground game should be taught at age 3
nubbins`: although i guess that leaves me at a 50% risk of assault
firedrops: 100% rape prevention at 99% the cost.
ThickAsThieves: 100% an hour, that's fair
firedrops: Maybe I'll become a Rape-Companion.. Rent me for %100/hr to prevent rape.
ThickAsThieves: remember the crash in April, heh

nubbins`: that was neither the first nor the last time i saw her kick a man out of a bar
nubbins`: my (then-future) wife railroaded him out of the bar
ThickAsThieves: so they wore ass-spikes?
nubbins`: i remember being at a bar show once, and there was some skid going around grabbing girls' asses and stuff
pankkake: what they say is actually true, resisting somewhat will lessen the chance of the rapist to go further
pankkake: I doubt many rapists will go that far
nubbins`: oh nvm, the video says the attacker will not slash your throa
firedrops: tired of anal/vaginal rape? put a cork in them and get face-raped instead!
nubbins`: "tired of getting raped? wear these so your attacker will slash your throat instead!"
pankkake: still quite annoying, unless you plan to buy right away
kakobrekla: for trading, bit4x is up to something i heard today.
kakobrekla: he was speaking of acquiring not trading
pankkake: what are we supposed to use, Bitstamp? to trade… USDs?
bob____: hmm.. i'm not in that big a rush. i can get 10 instantly on coinbase.
bob____: why localbitcoins better? so I can deal with moneypak and cash deposits instead of buying them online with an ach out of my bank account?
benkay: went in looking to pick up nearly a whole shitbuck of corns the other day and got no takers
benkay: i cannot believe the amount of retardity on display in the acquiring bitcoins in america space
benkay: bob____: the best way to buy coins in the us is through localbitcoins
jurov: no they renamed it to bitcoinrpc recently
jurov: or some other problem, can remember exactly what gavin cooked there
pankkake: yeah I saw that. and the offical way seems to have it *replace* jsonrpc which is dirty :/
jurov: start by installing bitcoinrpc, cuz normal jsonrpc will convert everything to floats
pankkake: ok. I have trouble deciding where to start
pankkake: jurov: are you using a python lib to interact with bitcoind?
jurov: or they found a way how humans can verify ECDSA sigs
pankkake: well I think the real reason is to prevent you from signing actual transactions
jurov: This is the first time we've heard negative feedback amount the message signing format. It's designed for easier verification for humans, and automated mechanisms obviously won't work correctly. We believe for most use cases the current default is the best option.
jurov: oh, and do you know what they replied to my complaint to their homebrewn signature format?
nubbins`: that means the encryption is on
nubbins`: and most importantly, ensure the huge splash image properly shows parallax when you wiggle your mouse over it
nubbins`: also make sure the "bitcoin foundation silver member" badge is present
jurov: If this bar is missing, triple check that you are on https://inputs.io!
gribble: (ticker [--bid|--ask|--last|--high|--low|--avg|--vol] [--currency XXX] [--market <market>|all]) -- Return pretty-printed ticker. Default market is Mtgox. If one of the result options is given, returns only that numeric result (useful for nesting in calculations). If '--currency XXX' option is given, returns ticker for that three-letter currency code. It is up to you to make sure the code (1 more message)
pankkake: I always thought the first issue would be it running a fractional reserve
bob____: i don't believe they were hacked. they use google 2fa. that makes it impossible.
nubbins`: "how do i know i can trust you?"
kakobrekla: was waiting for it to happen really
Apocalyptic: pankkake, was waiting for that one to happen
kakobrekla: i do this all the time, not cause i dont want to pay the fee but for other reasons
kakobrekla: and you end up with tx which will get confirmed tx in 1st block with 0 fees
kakobrekla: well basically you need to brake 1 bitcoin-day
kakobrekla: so you can easily craft your own tx, so what you do is make the the tx from X to Y, which you need and append X to X which you dont need, the apended tx should be like 100 btc or something
jurov: i use to scare ppl with negative balances on coinbr regularly xD
kakobrekla: dunno but i can tell you a sekrit which will get you any amt confirmed in 1st block free of charge
kakobrekla: pgp unluck or just big tx in size, not worth.
bob____: is it a huge tx? (in kb)
pgp: question: what would be possible reasons for txn with 0.001 BTC miner fee not to confirm? 5 blocks has been mined in intervening time. Any ideas?
Duffer1: i think once the 4 weeks passes they send you an extortion email saying you can pay 5% to get expedited, no one is getting reasonable withdrawal time even if you pay the fee
bob____: wow, they are charging for reasonable withdrawal times? amazing that they are getting away with this for so long.
Duffer1: gox is way longer than 4 weeks unless you want to pay their usurious 5% expedited withdrawal
bob____: it's not trying to be an exchange though. and it is definitely the safest/easiest way to buy btc in the US.
KRS-1: Duffer1: I have used coinbase and I too think that.
bitesak: is coinbase only for the US?
Duffer1: since it's price is now roughly equal to another major exchange that doesn't have liquidity problem, though i suppose coinbase isn't a true exchange
Duffer1: i mean, the price premium that drew arb to gox is no longer there
bob____: why is gox risk premium gone? have they started paying out regularly now?
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [LABCO] [PAID] 0.21891588 BTC to 40`316 shares, 543 satoshi per share
ozbot: Tutorial: Test MSC – BTC Distributed Exchange Transactions | Mastercoin Blog
Duffer1: gox risk premium is gone, no reason to arb there now
zacm: cinbase higher than all
nubbins`: so i can get a garnishee order put on their paycheques
nubbins`: so now i have to waste a bunch of time filing paperwork with the sheriff's office
nubbins`: they apparently think that not responding to my messages, phone calls, and letters is a reasonable way to deal with a court order requiring them to pay me
nubbins`: just having a hard time with some meatheads that are former tenants of mine
nubbins`: jurov, i generally don't talk to myself anymore ;)
mircea_popescu: bitbet in the red!
ozbot: BitBet, October 2013 Statement pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
asciilifeform: the static workfunction is not entirely unlike this cigar.
asciilifeform: to which the general replied - 'it wouldn't dare.' ☟︎
asciilifeform: given that the whole shebang 'might explode'
asciilifeform: a grunt, risking court martial, asked the general to put out his smoke
asciilifeform: it is said that he never spat out his enormous cigar, and once appeared with such near a bomber at a fueling pump
asciilifeform: all of this reminds me of a story told about General Curtis LeMay
asciilifeform: but it is quite certainly so in the specific instance currently in use.
asciilifeform: one would have to smoke some serious strange to believe that the concept of workfunction is vulnerable in the general case.
mircea_popescu: if messiah comes tomorrow riding a box of flaming fans
