BingoBoingo: ;;later tell thestringpuller Haven'
t seen it yet.
fluffypony: with this I'm probably just going to get a /28 and separate bindings out, that way if an IP is null-routed it doesn'
t affect the rest of them
artifexd: The problem with trilema credits isn'
t the investment in btc. That's pretty trivail.
fluffypony: *as long as an attacker doesn'
t know your IP
fluffypony: open a support ticket and get told that because the main IP is null-routed the DDoS protected IP can'
t proxy to it
fluffypony: so today it gets DDoS'd and they null-route the main IP, and HTTPS on that 2nd IP isn'
t working
Duffer1: i don'
t recall how long ago, but they talked about fishing truly massive tuna's off the coast during a certain time of year
cgcardona_: but I don'
t see myself going throught that trouble
cgcardona_: of course I could probably just book the tix and then cancel them if I don'
t get the visa.
cgcardona_: i'm unclear on if I can get a visa and I don'
t want to take a wash on the btc.
TestingUnoDosTre: Wouldn'
t you just pay a small amount up front, then deliver more after real evidence
fluffypony: in which /r/Bitcoin can'
t decide whether to support Ross Ulbricht's legal defence because drugs mmmmmkay or vehemently not support it because, you know, he tried to have people killed and ran a successful criminal enterprise
thestringpuller: funny how dead this channel gets when the bitcoin illuminati aren'
t around
dignork: bounce: equipment manufactuer won'
t give you a warranty if you use windows drop-in
bounce: on that note, often manufacturers explicitly forbid to install updates and servicepacks since it might well break the app. gotta love brittle "engineering" (by certified engineers!) like that. I don'
t suppose there's embedded software consultancy houses that'll do stress testing on the programs to see they'll stand up to such outlandish weirness as running without admin rights and still function after hotfixes get installed and such.
turbo_ac100: Problem is they won'
t be 100% XP anytime soon so it won'
t even be good enough for most people.
fluffypony: you're right, there aren'
t other options
ThickAsThieves: this also goes in hand with mp's past comments on advising to make mistakes people havent made already, thereby adding to the trove of things we know won'
t work
ThickAsThieves: fluffypony:on the topic of stupidity - you mentioned in a post that clever people learn by observation, and stupid people learn by direct experience...but I'm not sure if I agree that every lesson *can* be learnt by observation // well, NEW experiences can'
t be learned by observation, generally
HeySteve: speaking of due diligence, what is the WoT etiquette on a big name who doesn'
t wish to auth?
jurov: but they haven'
t headr at all
assbot: I don'
t do bots, mircea_popescu.
mircea_popescu: like the crinkle guy, except in fiat they don'
t let dorks trade on the company funds.
mircea_popescu: they all claim that sorta shit. this is part of why you don'
t want teenaged officers : they have issues with approval, and they seek it the wrong ways in the wrong venues.
fluffypony: also I'm not sure why everyone bought his spiel about being an early BTC/LTC adopter, there wasn'
t any evidence of that; his lack of technical understanding of cryptocurrency fundamentals would point to the opposite
mircea_popescu: but he didn'
t have brains enough to ask even, let alone push for it.
mircea_popescu: he had all the leverage he could possibly imaginably have : he didn'
t need a fixed date ; he was x-buying anyway. the publishers had nothing, he could have gotten any deal he wanted.
fluffypony: yeah, when you have buying power and you don'
t leverage it that's just idiotic
mircea_popescu: that's what truely separates the wayward (ie, erroneous) from the outright imbecilic (ie, rookie) : he didn'
t even fucking bother to get a good deal.
mircea_popescu: alternatively, they could have learned that advertising is the corporate equivalent of the cock measuring competition, and you don'
t buy it out of proportion to your market share unless you are significantly more capitalised than the average.
fluffypony: don'
t advertise when you don'
t even have a product
fluffypony: which doesn'
t translate into clicks, and they then *learn* from that *mistake* that they should have spent the $100k on online advertising instead
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell jborkl the only thing asics are good for is that it's no longer perfectly feasible for an actor with a fab to take over the chain. it's not something wanted, but moreover something that couldn'
t be avoided.
mircea_popescu: you don'
t understand. it's best to have bigger shares of number.
mircea_popescu: you don'
t need technology to solve all edge cases. you just need it to give peoplez teh tools to do it themselves.
mircea_popescu: artifexd yeah, and if you keep doing this sort of shit you won'
t have voice anymore and problem solved.
artifexd: Since nick changes don'
t show up in the log (do they?) later on, it could look like benkay was actually in here.
artifexd: mircea_popescu: It was the conversations part that led me to my suggestion about adding ident information to log.bitcoin-assets.com. If you and I are talking right now, I can ensure that you are who I think you are (wot-wise). But if I'm researching you and I find some stuff that your nick said in the log. I don'
t know if it was you or someone with your
gribble: Error: Could not find a pending authentication request from your hostmask. Either it expired, or you changed hostmask, or you haven'
t made one.
danielpbarron: artifexd: I believe it does.. you can'
t get voice without being authed i think
artifexd: mircea_popescu is saying that if I were to see both ratings I would have a view of what happened such that I wouldn'
t need to ask anything about it, but, if I ignored one of the ratings, I would have a different view of what happened such that I would need to investigate more and thus possibly expose a falsified event?
artifexd: I had assumed in your example that n(2) didn'
t rate you at all for that specific scenario.
artifexd: Well it wouldn'
t be just script kiddies and bots. If mircea_popescu were to rate someone as something and then everyone else in here were to rate that same person as that same thing, it would have the same effect.
fluffypony: BingoBoingo: I don'
t know - it was in May 2010?
BingoBoingo: TestingUnoDosTre: I don'
t really see the point in that
fluffypony: danielpbarron: don'
t get me wrong, I love the idea of a decentralised exchange, but the idea of just about anyone anonymously running an unregistered, unregulated company just seems to be asking for trouble
fluffypony: that's that thing that allows you to "invest" in anonymous "companies" that don'
t need to demonstrate they have any ability to earn money, right?
fluffypony: BingoBoingo: well, I didn'
t want to say it, but....
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: Do you have a time for when that happened? I don'
t know and dream host doesn'
t know. I need times when it slows down.
fluffypony: but I didn'
t really have the urge to fly to China and setup a QC/manufacturing structure for a product that I didn'
t know would sell well
BingoBoingo: Still, how was this idea born? Manufactering and shipping from South Africa... A country that just really isn'
t so good at shipping.
fluffypony: no, they all arrived, we haven'
t had a lost shipment yet
fluffypony: well, it wouldn'
t make spending too difficult (maybe make it a 3 of N multisig, for eg., or even less - 2 of N), but to make scamming more difficult and thus require not only the manipulation of the market but also the manipulation of the (more competent) investor pool
BingoBoingo: fluffypony: The solution is more along the lines of, if the woodchipper eats your right arm, don'
t offer it your left.
fluffypony: "Danny Brewster was GOX'ED. His creditors and employees were BEE'ED. If YOU don'
t want to be LOCAL'ED, CBASE'D or BITSTAMP'ED please, please, please with sugar on top, check out the new Armory cold storage wallet"
Duffer1: in this space if you don'
t keep your own money there is no hope
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: what's mpex's stance/your thoughts on companies that raise funds in BTC, but then don'
t only accept payment in BTC (and thus possibly being profitable from a fiat perspective, but not entirely from a BTC perspective) ?
gribble: Error: User doesn'
t exist in the Rating or GPG databases. User must be GPG-registered to receive ratings.
ArsKisS: fluffypony, i didn'
t say you are :P
ArsKisS: if some of us are stupid it doesn'
t make things better to annoy the non-stupid ones
ArsKisS: doesn'
t matter which channel it's on
mircea_popescu: i wouldn'
t be surpriosed if the above problem is actually most of the friction that site encounters, in its business
fluffypony: they also provide the ISBN if there isn'
t one already
mircea_popescu: yes but they also don'
t do it by themselves, it seems.
fluffypony: "We work on commission. We don'
t charge for our ebook publishing, conversion and distribution services, and we don'
t sell publishing packages. We earn our commission only if we sell your book, and our commission is only 15% or less of the net, which works out to 10% of the retail price when your book sells at our retailers. For example, a $10.00 ebook sold at one of our retail partners earns you $6.00 and earns Smashwords $1.00. The same
edlund10: yes, it's a pity i don'
t understand romanian so good :)
fluffypony: ICMP traffic is working, TCP is working, but HTTP/HTTPS isn'
t working
Namworld: Although otherwise I guess that yes, it's a default. I just don'
t know why he's naming me among so many scams who are more than just late. Or where he even learned I'm late on some payments.
Namworld: Wasn'
t there another loan thing on Bitfunder other than Ukyo? Who was it?
BingoBoingo: ThickAsThieves: Shouldn'
t you be getting some sleep?
artifexd: I can point them at the bitcointalk thread. And say, "See ThickAsThieves created the project. He says I am a rep. Don'
t believe me? Ask him."
artifexd: He hasn'
t authed with nickserv in 19 weeks.
artifexd: The founder is metabyte. He registered the channel over a year ago. Hasn'
t been in it for...
nubbins`: you will need it if you don'
t want to have to download a client and python every time you boot
nubbins`: because you can'
t save your changes
nubbins`: for example, persistence wouldn'
t be an option if you were running linux from a cdr
artifexd: And, fwiw, my feelings aren'
t *still* hurt. :)
artifexd: I guess the programmers weren'
t perceived as fungible at Clinkle.
thestringpuller: i haven'
t verified the sig lol oh well sorry to bring you bad news
thestringpuller: I think this is the harshest review tag I've ever seen >> "You don'
t need a heart to like this movie. You need an MBA."
thestringpuller: shouldn'
t you be off doing secret society illuminati shit?
