gecko_x2: i dunno should
there be 500 years combined, or 500 years of each
gecko_x2: i'm
thinking you make 3 altcoins
gecko_x2: but
this post doesn't mention coins as i'm
thinking
gecko_x2: there is an old post about
the concept
dexX7: i don't
think i fully get it
gecko_x2: so you could
trade unknown future secrets
gecko_x2: and as
the 1 month encrypted data, when it's
time
to decrypt
gecko_x2: with a portfolio of
time encrypted data
gecko_x2: i'm not smart enough
to fully figure it out
gecko_x2: should 51% of
the holders of
these anonymous
timecoins decide
to all release
them ahead of
time,
they would become worthless
gecko_x2: the value of
the coins can only be released after a message is decrypted at
the expected
time, no sooner
gecko_x2: ppl have clients which holds fractional pieces of all
time encrypted data
gecko_x2: you encrypt
the message, and
the keys are freely
traded globally
gecko_x2: say
there is
the amount of one second coins
to make up 100 years
gecko_x2: ppl have clients where
they can
trade all
these coins
gecko_x2: you combine
them
to make up a month
gecko_x2: the incentive not
to release
the key early would be monetary
dexX7: hmm.. but isn't
the collection of pointers
to
the parts more or less similar
to passwords or a key?
gecko_x2: it's a very interesting concept, if you
think about encrypting contracts,
testimonies, wills etc
gecko_x2: 51% of
those pieces would be needed
to decrypt
gecko_x2: the blockchain could be used so
that a key
to a piece of data would be split into say 100000 pieces
gecko_x2: there is one new concept
that
the blockchain would make
theoretically possible
too
mircea_popescu: because poor people can not afford
to move otp keys around safely.
gecko_x2: except maybe for initially sharing
the actual OTP
gecko_x2: i
think
that a single static key as a concept is pretty much dead
gecko_x2: that's
the way messages was delivered during WW2
gecko_x2: one
thing
that
the NSA is
totally defenceless against
gecko_x2: there is one
thing
that hasn't been mentioned at all after
the snowden case
gecko_x2: i don't even
think gpg keys are
the future
gecko_x2: there's just no way a normal joe sixpack can do
that
gecko_x2: i remember playing with centralized key servers back in
the days
gecko_x2: yea GPG key management was always
the issue
bitesak: mircea_popescu, I wanted
to refer
to Casascius Bitcoins for
the coins
mircea_popescu: gecko_x2 not in any significant degree. asciilifeform is
the
tech
there.
bitesak: I'll probably start with one,
test it and do my best
to understand it and use it as a means
to promote use of GPG among friends and girlfriends
dexX7: ah i see.. yes,
the gpg-token sounds like a really neat object
bitesak: nope, I am considering it
though and interested in purchasing a few for christmas :)
bitesak: i see it as
the first physical product made
through and
thanks
to bitcoin, other
than Bitcoin coins and
Tshirt branded stuff I guess.
dexX7: i have no specific question at
the moment
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [XBOND] [PAID] 0.69348300 BTC
to 1`386`966 shares, 50 satoshi per share
dexX7: i was just wondering, if
there is a document somewhere with more details :)
dexX7: and i saw
the contract on mpex
dexX7: > based on
the description of
that gpg-token
ozbot: S.NSA first product -
The Cardano pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
dexX7: what is s.nsa anyway? i have a vague impression, but
that's solely based on
the description of
that gpg-token
dexX7: ;;seen
ThickAsThieves

nubbins`: and only nuts in
the culinary sense, so nobody's allergic
kakobrekla: and
they last long in a prepper scenario
dub: I'm very well qualified
to grow weed
pankkake: I have a few
TBs of porn, I can live without
nubbins`: well, a life
that only includes needs is pretty grim
dub: what do I need
that I cant kill or grow?
nubbins`: pros and cons
to being on an island
kakobrekla: i live in a country with most
tractors per capita, i cant get away from farms basically
dub: being on an island helps, I could feed hundreds with a few hours on
the sea every day
nubbins`: i have a neighbour who had chickens,
the city made him stop
pankkake: my mother does… and
the stuff is delicious
nubbins`: potatoes, peas,
tomatoes, spinach, broccoli, onion
nubbins`: i started learning
to grow food
this year
dub: knowing how
to hunt and grow shit is useful
pankkake: it already helped me a few
times, like less revenue for a while
dub: I've got a weeks worth, plenty
to get
to my DR sites
nubbins`: most common drugs could be stored for a year or
two, if done so correctly
pankkake: "Depending on
the weather condition, cigarettes can go stale within 2 or 3 weeks after opening. If unopened,
they can
take more
than one year and still be used without any harm."
nubbins`: but
that doesn't really matter, depending on how badly you want one
pankkake: for how much
time can you store cigarettes (or other drugs)?
nubbins`: if
the grocery store isn't going
to
take your gold for payment, you can have as much of it as you want
dub: I'd rather starve
to death high
ozbot: [540
TH] BTC Guild - Pays
TxFees, Stratum, MergedMining, Private Servers
nubbins`: well, "illegal items
that people desire" is itself a limited class
nubbins`: illegality often drives up
the value of items
nubbins`: dub:
that was more in response
to your not legal/no value assertion
dub: nubbins`: presumably pills are not a long
term value store
nubbins`: everyone still alive who gave
the USG all
their gold back in
the 30s is probably pretty pissed off right now
dub: beyond
trading for ammo and wild
turkey with other inbreeds notwithstanding
nubbins`: tell
that
to
the pill dealers across
the street
dub: if its not legal
to own it has no value
nubbins`: because
then
they'd have your gold!
dub: at
that point its not worth anything anyway
dub: im still confused why it would matter if
the govt
took your gold
Namworld: I require some unobtainium and an antigravity device for some project. Anyone may procure
those?
pankkake: I
think it was illegal
to own gold at some
times during WW2 in europe
dub: I like my shit
to sparkle
nubbins`: i wonder does
that sort of
thing happen often? i'm only aware of when
the usa did it back in
the 30s or whenever
Namworld: Oh, my gold? It was all eaten. I grind gold flakes out of my gold
to decorate fancy meals for my guests.
pankkake: sure. but if I can avoid
them looking into me, all
the better
