BingoBoingo: My gibberish name, fine name. mircea_popescu being the Romanian equivalent of John Smith fine. "Cocksmoker404" is limiting.
BingoBoingo: Guest85903: You know... if you have Bitcoin in you personal name people take you less seriously. That's why bitcoin_pete seriously considered moving his identity to MooseCocks
Guest85903: -_-
BingoBoingo: See comments here ben_vulpes http://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article&sid=20141205090350&mode=expanded

BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: Actually I've done the opposite
ben_vulpes: sadly, got banned. even mircea_popescu couldn't out-chat him.

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: the way it looked, mr moarspam was sent here specifically for me. (why? ask him)
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: wasn't instant by any means, i ended up with a mile-long ninjasp4mz0r-style log from him
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes not THAT insta.
ben_vulpes: by the way, isn't it amusing how the_scourge got instanuked, but the outright derps keep getting upped?
bitcoinquestions: mircea_popescu: alright I'm on it, also you asked me what I thought of b-a before I got disconnected - it's a breath of fresh air from the mass stupidity

mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski hehehe sounds bout right.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: gonna bet that it'll end up in the same place as symbolics sources
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: try to realize that to the extent reverse-engineered drivers exist for various things, the entire undertaking stands - and falls - on w4r3z 'ida pro' as much as on leaked/stolen docs
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the proggy is a misery to use; works very half-heartedly anywhere other than winblows; costs $maxint; and, more direly, is not especially actively maintained. but there is nothing remotely like an alternative, not even a 'distant second', nor is anyone (afaik) remotely contemplating the idea of making one.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: all the good agents are busy hunting for ilfak guilfanov, they wanna find new version of 'ida pro'.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: that video was quite literally one of that saddest things i've seen in months

bitcoinquestions: mircea_popescu: I did a lot more critical thinking about the blocksize limit and holy shit I feel so dumb for ever thinking Gavin's proposal was a good idea.
bitcoinquestions: mircea_popescu: Another question I have for you. Are you happier when the BTC price goes up or when it goes down?
bitcoinquestions: mircea_popescu: It isn't that simple, I have loved ones etc.
bitcoinquestions: mircea_popescu: yeah man everyday I feel more and more that I need to get out of the US
kakobrekla: re that story https://www.backblaze.com/blog/backblaze_drive_farming-2/
bitcoinquestions: mircea_popescu: alright fair enough, I was just proposing a hypothetical to make sure I understood your position.
bitcoinquestions: mircea_popescu: Ah I see. Interesting. That is definitely the case as of today. That being said, let's say I create a company that is able to provide hard drive space for cheaper, but I only accepted payment in BTC. If this company existed would your opinion change?
bitcoinquestions: mircea_popescu: Ah okay I reread and understand a little better I believe. But why do you assume you need to pay for more disk space in fiat?
bitcoinquestions: mircea_popescu: Do you have proof that Gavin and some USG mole is trying to implement some attack on bitcoin? What has made you come to this conclusion?
bitcoinquestions: mircea_popescu: Okay of course the proponents of the change are the ones who must justify it. But the justification is pretty simple, with a larger block size the network can support more transactions per second. This allows more transactions to be onchain instead of through trusted identities.
bitcoinquestions: mircea_popescu: ? I need to know whether or not to call the cable company :D
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: i love your quotes on the US being broke

BingoBoingo: ^mircea_popescu: sometimes i fantasize about buying an old english castle, turning it into a computing school for nude 18 to 22 yo ladies, and putting alf in charge of it, with a flexible bamboo cane. << wrong pasta buffer
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu still vividly remembers this event when he was maybe 13 or so. this kid "got really psised off" and was going to hit me. every time he launched his fist, he also closed his eyes. every time i'd dodge and he'd mash his fist into the nearby wall. his hits got softer an softer, but he never figured out why exactly he's not making contact. << Airstrip One must first be cast into the ocean

BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: the best chemistry lab, were it to be maintained as a collection of bottles going "stuff" "Good stuff!" "REagenT" etc 18:23:12 mircea_popescu: would not really work. << This is why other big cause of home explosion is meth "labs"
decimation: ben_vulpes: yeah I guess that's what I thought was happening when he gets close to the ground, but there's probably not enough of a 'cushion' to do the turns they are doing
decimation: ben_vulpes: lol that's nuts
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: fwiw there aren't many orcs in the rural bits of ussa, and one can shoot trespassers on sign in those provinces too << Different kind, even tolkien had different kinds of orcs
