mircea_popescu: <fluffypony> but why did he barrel ahead? it's because he didn't know of the existence of #bitcoin-assets << it's because people don't know what they doin't know and assume this is a-ok.
fluffypony: I can't save them
fluffypony: it's because he didn't know of the existence of #bitcoin-assets
mircea_popescu: <cgcardona> no that person probably just realizes that the hive mind of rage will move on soon enough to something else. << the hivemind doesn't have a mind of its own you know.
moiety: i'm not which is why i don't mind spending time on this.
benkay: moiety: thestringpuller you two will want to set up your own relationship for this. don't contaminate the -assets' reception feed.
moiety: because this isn't a blog for me, its purely a log of calls i get for here
moiety: thestringpuller: if its relating to here obviously, don't be leaving me shopping lists or anything
benkay: so i discovered last night that multibit doesn't display unconfirmed zero-fee transactions
moiety: its attached to the receptionthing s i didn't think a sleeping one or a grumpy one would be such a good idea
moiety: o right enough BB i didn't think on yours
BingoBoingo: It isn't at all
fluffypony: oh I didn't know he responded
fluffypony: moiety: don't worry, you're getting paid, just brush off any retards being retarded and move on
mircea_popescu: i'm just sorry i didn't get a picture of a police comissioner's severed head wrapped in a newspaper discussing the unseasonable rain.
mircea_popescu: you couldn't tell this to look at their newspapers. cr newspapers carried abut half "omfg the security problems"
fluffypony: and they don't want to be on the hook for legal issues
bitcoinpete: it doesn't?
moiety: mircea_popescu: a year is £40.25 but wouldn't you rather see how it went?
mircea_popescu: <fluffypony> in this instance it's for a valid cause :) << i'm impressed how well this works. same thing happened with openbsd, people ended up giving them like 100k. and we don't even have a foundation! and we're not even ceos of bitcoin!
Phoebus: mircea_popescu, if you don't mind twilio's charges, also another option. Fun API :)
fluffypony: and I don't mind throwing 20 GBP at it every time it runs low
bounce isn't sure why you're so happy to throw bezzle at redmond-owned skype
bounce: signed up for... oh feeding AWS a number or something and they didn't bite, arses
mircea_popescu: i don't think she'll comfortably manage the tech stuff on her own
bounce: can't always get caller ID outbound matching though
mircea_popescu: you can't get a 1-500-43987543985 sorta thing ?
bounce: just wondered if its own identity brand thing wouldn't be a good idea
moiety: well, reception is what i do so i'm happy to do it for you. i don't make personall calls so i can keep records. im not sure how you feel about it being a mobile number?
mircea_popescu: if you don't know the answer, you either ask here or else if not possible
bounce: OTOneH I've had that thought for ages, irc to voice, though voice to irc would perhaps be a bit of a challenge. also the plusvees. OTOtherH this made me realise I perhaps really shouldn't want to try and find out
mircea_popescu: well phone wouldn't likely work for you, sure.
mircea_popescu: jurov why wouldn't you want to ?
jurov: yesterday i emaled to prospective investor (more politely) "i don't want to become a bridge between VC and people around MPEx, pls read my blog, otherwise you're in for cultural shock"
bounce: oh I think we discussed globalcoinfx a while back, didn't we? the pattern rings a bell.
ho_: ah, wasn't aware I was being interrogated
punkman: don't like the sound of "proactive compliance"
moiety: hmm kakobrekla doesn't have neough free time clearly
mircea_popescu: !t m s.bbet
thestringpuller: mpexbot isn't voiced?
moiety: he is on a quest but he doesn't know what the quest is apparently
moiety: punkman: what is it?! that person isn't so good at labelling their posts
moiety: wouldn't have been too great*
kakobrekla: <Luke-Jr> if nobody tries, it won't happen for sure < theres a HUGE gap between that and "I SHOULD DO IT"
moiety: true but i wouldn't have thought the reception would've been to great either had they thought you were there to reform them?
Luke-Jr: if nobody tries, it won't happen for sure
moiety: Luke-Jr: don't you think that's a rather ambitious plan for one man in a whole foundation, with no plan?
Luke-Jr: moiety: I didn't plan that far ahead.
moiety: well, i don't know you myself but i don't think he's a liar at all. unsure how else to answer that
pankkake: well, yes, a motherboard that isn't old as fuck!
pankkake: fans that can't power up or even stop at low voltage suck, I've been bitten by that. "wut, why is my pc screaming?!"
pankkake: and I have ~10 hard drives powered, so I really don't want them near me :p
assbot: While Washington sleeps. http://t.co/PUoX6QBz6F
mircea_popescu: i kinda regret the guy didn't keep a blog. it'd be neat if one could link to where he says "gavin, you're too fucktarded to talk to, stop emailing me."
asciilifeform: i don't give a damn if 'market has decided' that shit is edible. for so long as it remains physically possible to obtain food, i shall eat it - rather than shit
asciilifeform: won't touch mb with no ecc.
asciilifeform: won't touch intel.
asciilifeform: ~1yr ago i thought about it, and couldn't even locate a vendor that supported mb with ECC.
asciilifeform: the 1kg and similar nice thermal hedgehogs unfortunately won't work here (i run dual-socket boards, 'amd type f', there is just enough room for ordinary one)
asciilifeform: (my pet, for example, is entirely unbothered by noise. can't even hear half of what i hear.)
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: At least you didn't dotcoin that sentence full
asciilifeform: i still can't picture something i'd recognize as a solution, with fans present.
asciilifeform: it is eminently possible to build a computer which isn't also a vacuum cleaner.
asciilifeform: they needn't buzz. back in the '50s it was standard to varnish & bake all coils
mircea_popescu: jurov: so, by this theory, mircea_popescu should not mind all this feminish buzz cuz he's enjoying bitches anyway :D << i don't mind it in the slightest. anti-male legislation helps the male owner of a harem of females most of all.
mircea_popescu: fluffypony: I actually really hope this happens, it will make the foundation obselete << a) it can't happen ; b) it doesn't compete with the foundation any more than workout videos compete with feminism.
assbot: The pitiful U.S. recovery looks pretty good compared to other advanced regions. http://t.co/mUYMaaJORc http://t.co/BVFL52MYpF
Luke-Jr: wtf, the idiot didn't change his password yet
bitcoinpete: princessnell: Apocalyptic i'm halfway through *A Troublesome Inheritance* (good, but still cowardly) << found it very timid as well. decent research, didn't put on big boy pants
bitcoinpete: assume stealing. assume it's a normal bank that really doesn't need btc
bitcoinpete: benkay: if you can arbitrarily not lose money in a bear market isn't that topologically identical to arbitrarily making money? << this is offset by the money they steal from you when the btc price goes up, duh
Luke-Jr: oh, wasn't sure if there was yet another one already
bitcoinpete: bexo hasn't blogged since feb 25
bitcoinpete: @yrashk Hey Yuri, why do you need $10k of other peoples' money to do this? Hasn't @BexHQ brought in enough cash for you to bootstrap?
assbot: Thanks to all #Gitchain backers! You're awesome. Another day of hacking is ahead. http://t.co/B6ggMgjgCo
assbot: Who sucks more, /circlebits or /twobitidiot? It's a deadly race to the bottom. http://t.co/6heXL1XoxX
bounce: so, you're saying the elite isn't being oppressive enough when you hear complaints?
princessnell: benkay oppressed minorities don't circle around shitholes
pankkake: the house bets don't come instantly
jurov: why don't more women learn cobol or java then?
assbot: Shit. You ain't even old enough to smoke.
jurov: don't forget children-friendly
assbot: New submission for 100% men Tumblr. MT /conniegallippi: Bitcoin Blockchain Awards 100% male. http://t.co/AoVj3WbHSo http://t.co/fP8cd7FJrC
thestringpuller: Ignore benkay he's just mad that he can't rap
benkay: well his royal bitlord didn't put it on, so his echo chamber's ripping it apart.
Shakespeare: well they didn't win the startup challenge Taiwan
benkay: if you can arbitrarily not lose money in a bear market isn't that topologically identical to arbitrarily making money?
Shakespeare: doesn't everyone?
jurov: they want to replace themselves with bots, too, don't they? :D
jurov: BTCS&T was the stabilisation fund of its time
fluffypony: I don't think it's that
fluffypony: nah jurov, credit where credit is due, I don't think that's what he's aiming for
Apocalyptic: %t
fluffypony: I imagine pankkake as Mr. T being all like "I pity tha fool that uses altcoins"
pankkake: doesn't change my point. altcoins are for fools, and a minority of actual experimenters
fluffypony: pankkake: don't forget that some of the experimentation requires real-world use cases
mircea_popescu: because human beings being the shits they are, unless you get their balls in a vice they just won't perform.
pankkake: "Peter Todd notes to Etherium fans to be careful because Bitcoin can always just copy whatever they do" I don't know who this is, but it's pretty much my point about alcoins: they're experiments, and most of what they do could be pushed into Bitcoin if it was actually useful
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this isn't spam, this is an ipo.
mircea_popescu: like, social media, naive email, what have you. it wouldn't surprise me if it turns out real gdp is in the low single digit %s of what it should be.
