teward: the 'nanotube challenge'... he's talking about the OTC auth system isn'
t he...
kakobrekla: <mdev>you're giving everyone with voice the ability to up/down voice everyone who hasn'
t gone through the nanotube challenge
mircea_popescu: anyway, the problem as stated is unresolvable. as the future includes the past, you can'
t by yourself prove you were anterior to a point. only ulteriority can be proven that hardcore
mircea_popescu: blocks reorg. how do you know you won'
t end up on a dead chain
mircea_popescu: you can prove you know something and so establish it one way, but you can'
t prove you didn'
t know something.
mike_c: log.b-a or my blog still requires trust. blockchain doesn'
t, but i'm not a fan of abusing chain for this kind of stuff. pastebin i guess works. nobody would believe they were in on the scamz.
fluffypony: [01:15:01] mdev: your abuse won'
t be tolerated
mdev: bitcoin trusts no ones date, they don'
t use dates they use difficulty I think
mike_c: i don'
t think there is, but thought i'd ask to make sure i wasn'
t missing some clever trick.
mircea_popescu: "Joe: No way, no way. Tried it once, doesn'
t work. You got four guys all fighting over who's gonna be Mr. Black, but they don'
t know each other, so nobody wants to back down. No way. I pick. You're Mr. Pink. Be thankful you're not Mr. Yellow."
mircea_popescu: the truth of the matter is that i don'
t have an actual personality, i just do the opposite of what y'all are doing.
pankkake: FlyDuch: why wouldn'
t you use one of the many exchanges to do that?
pankkake: I don'
t trust him, and I backup the otc db :)
pankkake: so I don'
t understand "not yet amortised"
mdev: if ghash abuses everyone will know and they'll be done, they don'
t control the users hardware anyway
mdev: I been banned in there a lot, in the past some ops agreed the ban shouldn'
t have been set but didn'
t do anything to lift it!
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Do those peeps still have coins they aren'
t buring on Mastersafe and stuff like that?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo aff is kinda intended for the peeps that don'
t even know there's something to check
mircea_popescu: pankkake: this is probably the first example of the wot for +v selection failing << honestly i don'
t think so.
jurov: uh oh bitbet won'
t replace ref cookie unless user deletes it manually? pure evil
mircea_popescu: midnightmagic: your transitive rating to nano at a certain level, correct. without trust from nanotube you can'
t rate. << good thing they finally moved away from the total rating model, that was silly.
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell thebutterzone suppose you clear asciilifeform and that way i don'
t have to neg you too.
BingoBoingo: Prolly the ultimatum brought some action. Ultimatum or not, I just can'
t care about any "competition" that usually ends in a draw and hugs for everybody.
mircea_popescu: if thjat were the proposition, then it'd have been just a dumb as fuck deal. even in that case, claiming it's not a scam is marginal, much in the way adding a nuclear device to your doorknob is endangerment, even if you think people shouldn'
t have fucked with the doorknob.
mircea_popescu: so i bought 1/4 kg of prosciutto from this woman that i don'
t think has ever sold more than 18 grams at a time
mike_c: (unless you don'
t want to divulge sekurity measures)
jurov: above proposal isn'
t exactly an easy workaround
Ssateneth: To me, -10 is lke "this guy has definately stolen people's money, and is definately a scumbag you don'
t want to live near because he'll probably break into your home and steal your valuables" :P
☟︎ pankkake: doesn'
t change anything if you -10
danielpbarron: Ssateneth, what flies in -otc doesn'
t necessarily fly in -assets
danielpbarron: well if you weren'
t such a nobody, you'd know that asciilifeform is not "some random"
midnightmagic: your transitive rating to nano at a certain level, correct. without trust from nanotube you can'
t rate.
benkay: who do S and
T sock for?
danielpbarron: TBZ is like "nope i don'
t see it in -otc so it must not have happened"
danielpbarron: he apparently doesn'
t trust you; I wouldn'
t go as far as to give a -10, but that's just me
danielpbarron: some of my -1s actually prevent users from having voice in here, so i wouldn'
t call that "0 weight"
TheNewDeal: oh my gosh. can'
t believe someone just bet both sides on the bastille day bet with a weight of like 150
danielpbarron: idk enough about this latest thing, but you are stupid because you don'
t understand the WoT (according to my rating)
decimation: "fluffypony: when decimation said "test" they weren'
t voiced, or was my client just being weird" << I actually sent "gpg unauth" to gribble before sending "test"
gribble: You rated user Blazedout419 on Sun May 4 23:13:39 2014, with a rating of -1, and supplied these additional notes: doesn'
t understand the WoT; don'
t trust this user's ratings.

t come in cuntish
ThickAsThieves: Nintendo won'
t add Twitch streaming to Wii U: 'What's fun about that?' --- Nintendo rox

t gpg sign, i could make a pastebin too. let's have some fun
mircea_popescu: just like some dorks that meet each friday for a beer attheir pub can'
t just put up a sign saying "bitcoin conference hackathon and miss universe contest"
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves that's whatreddit is for neh ? for people who can'
t do anything to pretend like they're doing things.
nubbins`: god, i can'

t hop on the train, i'll never travel
fluffypony: no I don'
t mean from there perspective
nubbins`: there's gotta be at least a few financial institutions/hedge funds/whatever that want btc but don'
t want to purchase from a foreign exchange, guy on the street, etc
mircea_popescu: and the forumtards respond : ""If I didn'
t do it I would say that I didn'
t do it. You wrote a very long post and not one time did you say that you did not do it. To me, that says a lot! Don'
t bother now, it's too late.
mircea_popescu: this is why i say the thing sucks and shouldn'
t be used.

fluffypony: kakobrekla: shouldn'
t you be asking Brock?
mircea_popescu: ns oh well...Great job on running the pool WK!! couldn'
t ask for a better pool op"
mircea_popescu: forum responds : "WOOT WTG WK!!! you teach them that messing with our pool isn'
t an option Great job on catching them and stopping them from getting their reward for doing nothing Finally some scammers didn'
t get to scam...oh how good that makes me feel...lost 21 coins to some lying cheating bastards already one was the btcrow or some website email scam..thought i was using escrow but was really sending them the coi
mircea_popescu: well the more persuasive explanation is, elegius fucked up a server upgrade (on its sole server, if you don'
t count an old backup box which is never live anyway), lost some user's accounts
kakobrekla: elegius deceiving users? wouldn'
t be the first time.
mircea_popescu: o look, it's also closing ? isn'
t this one of the oldest pools still (sort-of) standing ?

t fit any part of it in there.
mircea_popescu: speaking of negative cock thickness, so the good folk here don'
t fucking import condoms.
mircea_popescu: bitcoin will succeed in the long term because i say so. not because todd says or doesn'
t say so. wtf is this, programmer planet, where programmers matter now ?!
mircea_popescu: if you mean to try and double spend, it'd be hard for any pool to do. if you mean, the withholding to hurt the pool, it can'
t really, but extreme bad luck is always suspicious.
fluffypony: apparently you weren'
t voiced for a while
fluffypony: when decimation said "test" they weren'
t voiced, or was my client just being weird
mircea_popescu: punkman: do I have to put them up to my ear and tap them? << if you can'
t hear the tap without putting it to your ear it's not a good one anyway
pankkake: anyway, this kind of post is why bitcoin can'
