trinque: ben_vulpes: no way sounds lame
trinque: ben_vulpes: wat
phillipsjk: <ben_vulpes> anyways, block limit ain't going anywhere. it diddles important scarcity characteristics, and the system isn't even in steady-state yet.
phillipsjk: ben_vulpes, I have always assumed that if Bitcoin users commonly used Windows or IOS, we will learn that some major company had an "insider" push BItcoin stealing malware. (I think I mentioned that within my first 10 Bitcointalk posts.)
trinque: ben_vulpes: requires equipment and *taps noggin*
trinque: ben_vulpes: better just finish that yerself
ben_vulpes: ./bitcoind -datadir=my_butt/ -daemon

trinque: ben_vulpes: "bitch!" spans many species, lol
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> [] trinque actually they'll fight you, too. more than one woman got scared shitless of flocks of geese << this one time i was eating a burrito on the waterfront
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes ^
punkman: ben_vulpes: I had one of BingoBoingo's nodes plus dnsseed

asciilifeform: http://www.ussiowa.org/general/html/willie_d.htm << of historical interest, re: fdr and u.s. brass
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> [] a) what chicks and b) what pay. << i can speak to the chicks
punkman: ben_vulpes: what's a known-good blocksource?
punkman: (on debian wheezy, rev_bump patch)
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> chick's so drastically ugly tho... << pretty indicative of the tail to which us brass has access
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes have a logwatcher trigger ? renice everyything ?
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: if you were trying to get $proggy built for apple's gui to draw on an x11 instance, i regret to inform you that this won't work...
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: actually this very wedge (though differing tx id) has been documented in the past. see last night's log.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: where did you get them?!
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i assume you built them for x11
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes the idea with the native cruftery is, he found a reliable way to wedge the bitcoind at a certain heright which just so happens to be the checkpoint
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i can't help but wonder how many folks carry around 'mac' as just a unix box with a very peculiar set of window decorations
mod6: i'll carry on tomorrow. im like X_X at this point.
asciilifeform: in case ben_vulpes wants to play with it on one of his existing stock macs
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> ben_vulpes: sbcl runs entirely without problem on mac os << so as to say "why bother with gentoo?"?
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i somehow got the impression that you were considering gentoo-on-applehw
ben_vulpes: gabriel_laddel: for a gentoo like what you describe, i'd go through the headaches of dual booting.
