fluffypony: I kept not having drinks because I was worried I wouldn't be able to concentrate
Apocalyptic: hum, so clueless wannabe investor's pool hasn't dried up yet
danielpbarron: i saved all the old machines i've used over the years, and recently started gutting them for parts to build a full node; glad I didn't throw all that stuff out

jurov: it will use freenet to ensure we can't learn anything about the customers even under rectothermals
ThickAsThieves: it won't have any reputation features

chetty: http://deadspin.com/rio-mayor-on-world-cup-we-re-latins-we-re-not-used-t-1586749546?utm_source=recirculation&utm_medium=recirculation&utm_campaign=fridayAM
mike_c: isn't your constraint 1%?
mike_c: not to keep sticking my nose in when you keep asking TaT, but i don't think more volume should be a goal.
danielpbarron: diametric, you aren't saved by enforcing the law.. if you enforce the law without believing, you are like the hypocrites Jesus scolded for trying to kill the prostitute
jurov: !t m f.mpif
mike_c: jurov: how are you trying to make it move? more volume isn't really a goal is it?
diametric: danielpbarron: oh so now that the old testament is hard to justify in modern times, you just throw it away? except you can't, because matthew 5:18 clearly says, from Jesus, that until heaven and earth are gone, you need to follow the law of the old testament.
mircea_popescu: im pretty sure it wasn't a billion women
danielpbarron: diametric, it is not a requirement of salvation to enforce the law of the old testement, but it isn't a bad idea if you can do it
diametric: danielpbarron: doesn't that kind of fuck you in the end, you're going to hell whether you like it or not
diametric: danielpbarron: but doesn't the bible also say honoring wicked people is a sin?
diametric: i don't think he has a choice
mircea_popescu: because if you can't prevent it, the only other way to gain some control over it is to do it yourself.
mircea_popescu: ok so, you've probably heard of gehenna, but you probably don't know what it actually was.
danielpbarron: 10:46:55 <+mircea_popescu> me "why don't you beat it ?" him *vacant stare*
danielpbarron: doesn't that warface have to come with the memory that i usually is followed by a beating?
mircea_popescu: TomServo, i said it shouldn't be needed
TomServo: +mircea_popescu | me "why don't you beat it ?" him *vacant stare* << didn't you say no beating unless double-digit in age?
mircea_popescu: <mike_c> what do i care if he wants to roll on the ground at the mall and scream? go for it. << you care because if you didn't you'ds have married a chimp instead of his mother.
mircea_popescu: ignoring doesn't help.
mircea_popescu: me "why don't you beat it ?" him *vacant stare* ☟︎
asciilifeform: (u.s. fuckwits, as a general rule, don't have the courage to blow up heretics)
asciilifeform: i gotta say, the fuckwits don't bother me (except on the rare occasions they show up to my door, spamming)
mircea_popescu: let's make sure our boys can't compete with their boys, and if push comes to shove our entire country is made of girls.
mike_c: i don't see angels stopping by argentina with golden messages from aliens
mircea_popescu: that'd be the problem, this "i can do it" atttiude applied to religion. which isn't religion in any sense, unless you count ustardianism as a religion.
diametric: asciilifeform: well, i think i was more going along the lines of secularism, a lot of the population of JP doesn't identify with any single religion but rather pieces of several
diametric: mircea_popescu: i don't like them.
asciilifeform: doesn't No have the world's currently highest tax...

mike_c: i don't know what pankkake feeds that penguin.
mircea_popescu: <diametric> mike_c: wasn't part of erik's fine simply because he had IPO'd without filing the required documentation? << no. he was fined for having advertised a glbse scam.
mircea_popescu: this is a trend that has being going on for three years and is likely to continue : people who think they know better than me / don't listen to me will have problems.
asciilifeform: i'm still curious precisely why vorhees wasn't sent to the wagen for satoshidice
mike_c: it seemed to me the only reason he got fined was that his feedzbirdz investors didn't make money.
diametric: mike_c: wasn't part of erik's fine simply because he had IPO'd without filing the required documentation?
mike_c: i think if you scoured the entire logs you couldn't find one example of ascii promoting s.nsa shares
mircea_popescu: well no, i don';t have one. i do have the habit of asking unpleasant questions.
ThickAsThieves: it can't hurt, but it's not my job
mircea_popescu: <ThickAsThieves> but the alternative would be to advertise x-bt more << this can't hurt.
asciilifeform woke up from the noise, looked in window, saw wild cat tunneling (!) under the house. but then the cat successfully penetrated, and the noise continued - then found bird. on other side of bldg. cat isn't doing his work.

dub: the point is you can't really decouple branding from ownership
mircea_popescu: i live to make sure the us won't be disrupted dontchaknow.
pankkake: I don't think the fee system is considered fixed for now. it is extremely cheap to register something right now
pankkake: using namecoind is horrible. though I haven't tried the Qt one
mdev: i'll look into registering later so won't be a burden on you guys anyway with the upping stuff
mdev: anyway gotta get ready, is my SO's birthday today, if i'm not allowed to idle in here I won't be upset if you end up kicking
mdev: :) yeah I don't know, spammers can be pretty crafty he's been banned from #bitcoin quite a bit, and keeps showing back up
mdev: haven't yet no
TheNewDeal: I'm trying to figure out what type of growth rates are required for 12 and 13 day difficulty changes. I can't do it
