BitHub: i got so angry i sold over 1000 sdice shares for whatever
the fuck price, something cheap and nasty
Diablo-D3: bitcoin will just shove SD
tx out because
they don't pay fees
jcpham: what happens
to SD if pools or full nodes implement
that patch
jcpham: assume we're close
to
the point of full node/ merkle nodes
jcpham: only need
to have one node on
the network and
the rest of
the LAN connects with
jcpham: network grows beyond a certain point, it would be left more and more
to
jcpham: At first, most users would run network nodes, but as
the
jcpham: the "SD is spam" idea has
traction
mod6: if
they move up
to 1Mb
that buys
them some
time, but isn't any different
then what
the global central banks are doing
BingoBongo: Btc is only fucked in
the sense it is having fun getting its dick wet
mod6: today has been insane even outside of btc
today, hard
to keep up
mod6: yeah, read about
that shit earlier...
BingoBongo: I blame bitvisitor. At least some SD
transactions carry appreciable amunts of bitcoins.
jcpham: and
then some say
the devs should all hold hands and increase it
jcpham: luke-jr and others primarily blame
this on SD
jcpham: in some cases
they are backing up because of
the 250kb block limit
mod6: so
tx's are not being processed at all?
BitHub: so you mean just a mining farm just for SD
transactions?
jcpham: that's why i pay a fee on my
txns, because i want
them
to go
through
topace_: how goes
the mpex upgrades/"overhaul" ?
jcpham: if SD wants its blocks mined it needs
to pay a
toll
jcpham: i'm not sure how
though
jcpham: a problem i
think miners should capitalize on
jcpham: if
txns aren't going
through
that's a problem
mod6: ahh, successfull
troll 9/10
BitHub: i didn't care before
till i had
to start waiting hours and hours and hours for 1 confirm
mod6: (20:09) < BitHub> DEATH
TO SD
BitHub: i had
to sit a cafe for 6 hours just
to wait for 1 confirm
mircea_popescu: but when my banker has
to
tell me he failed because
the wire system is down...
mircea_popescu: i mean, bitcoin
transactions
taking 6 hours ? okay. its some internet funny money nobody heard about.
mircea_popescu: call
the bank ready
to bite
their head off for being idiots
BitHub: where
the bloody hell are ya
BingoBongo: William James, one of maybe
three Americans introspective enough about
the pecuiar brand of manic misery here
to approach a reasonble
target for a philosopher
BitHub: mircea coming
to australia
this weekend?
BingoBongo: mircea_popescu it isn't
that unlike James
mircea_popescu: uand on a des plaisirs un peu répétés, on peut dans cet espace de
tems se dire heureux ; quand ce bonheur dure un peu plus, c'est un état de félicité ; on est quelquefois bien loin d'être heureux dans la prospérité, comme un malade dégoûté ne mange rien d'un grand festin préparé pour lui.
BitHub: almost
time for
teh weekend
BingoBongo: Rubeta: a poison derived from
the juice of a frog. Juvenal wrote of a lady who mingled
this kind of poison in wine and presented it
to her husband
mircea_popescu: im willing
to go on a limb and say you'll get my point
Diablo-D3: through in 5000 IU of vitamin D daily, and you'll probably add another
ten years
to your life
BingoBongo: Leukemia is easy
to
treat
too. Eat a bunch of methotrexate and live.
Diablo-D3: not only does it cure pimples, it cures and lessens lots of other
things
BingoBongo: My french isn't good enough
to make an informed opinion on Diderot's
Diablo-D3: take high doses of omega 6 for
the rest of your life.
Diablo-D3: modern medicine refuses
to accept
the
treatment because
they can't charge obscene amounts of money for it
mircea_popescu: you know, back 300 years ago when
the encyclopedists came up with
the first one, it was a monument of erudition
BingoBongo: You know medicine is fucked when leukemia is easier
to
treat
than pimples.
mircea_popescu: "Pimples can be
treated by various acne medications prescribed by a dermatologist, or purchased at a drug store with a wide variety of
treatments."

dub: novels are being written
to explain how fees work
to a novice
mircea_popescu: Namworld you'll be able
to go something like #post blabla and
the bot will answer with an url
to a pastebin with your response.
reddddd: CoinBr also seems
to have a
twitter account
that could have used an update.
There are so many better ways
to let customers know what
the hell is going on
than just IRC.
dub: you can get
to coinbr?
reddddd: @CoinBr What's
the point of having a support forum if you're not going
to use it more major stuff like
this?
mircea_popescu: anyweay,
the first irc bot should be around in a few hours i
think
Namworld: Can
take
twice or half
the
time or more.

Namworld: Honestly, with upgrades, it's always hard
to estimate.
dub: in
the earliest
TZ anyway
dub: its actually 3pm on
teh 8th
Namworld: MPEx is a bit late on schedule for
the upgrades
dub: Chilca: sounds like it is ongoing but mpex has now been
taken offline for upgrades
Namworld: I bet after it all settles, people who kept buying will be apoplectic with explanations and sound just like people after
the dotcom bubble...
Chilca: thanks, is
there any status of
the DDOS?
BingoBongo: A combination of
the
two could probably make a new normal
though.
BingoBongo: It's why we could hit 10,000. Coinlab biting off more
than
they can chew and somehow instead of a flash crash we get a flash rally when
they are hacked. Also yes your second point.
Namworld: Everyone
thinks
they're skilled because
they buy BTC higher and higher because it keeps going higher and higher?
Namworld: What does Dunning-Kruger has
to do with it?
BingoBongo: You'd be surprised Namworld
the
things
that Dunning-Kruger can explain. It's like
the new Goodwin, but for
the Slate crowd.
Namworld: Wrong answer...
that's
the answer
to why it raised, not why it would stay like
that.
jcpham: i'm gona have
to say bitcoin
Namworld: Why would price madly like
that and stay like
that?
Namworld: But you'll see
there's an updating message.
