mircea_popescu: a gasp from the audience
mircea_popescu: on the romanian side, andrei popescu, ion popescu, nicolae popescu, gheorghe popescu and a shock : the 26 yo mihai popescu, lost in this sea of 50 to 60 yos.
mircea_popescu: so small, so dumb, and already has a history ?
shinohai: "IWF ... has provided a database of bitcoin addresses associated with sexual abuse to the startup. Elliptic" http://archive.is/CmZNi
asciilifeform: i have a ratchet
mircea_popescu: but this is a bidniss idea... pitchfork hole porn... for feministas
shinohai: Meh I love ruffling their feathers in that sub. Literally takes a minute to make 3 new accounts there.
shinohai: They make it a frivkin default sub so you auto subscribe when you join
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, anyone be a darling put http://trilema.com/2016/on-beatings/ into whichever reddit it is whit the wyminz ? something chromosome ?
mircea_popescu: what, i recount it a third time now ? bloody hell...
a111: Logged on 2016-07-05 22:35 mod6: i just added a trusted nodes page with: deedbot's, zoolag's and pete d's ips: http://thebitcoin.foundation/trusted-nodes.html
pete_dushenski: "You are right, it's actually easier to create a new identity in the "bitcoin" world than in the "fiat" world." << lolk. except in fiat you can move to next town, next county, next state, next country, next continent, and never run into the same burned and turned peers again. not so in bitcoin.
a111: Logged on 2016-07-06 01:34 asciilifeform: i will become a php monkey shortly after i learn to run the deep fryers at mickeydee's.
mircea_popescu: mats ftr, i've yet to know a man who was in shape throughout his life - some sane athletics in college, not the us crapolade, some hiking or whatever as an adult, who actually couldn't run 10 km/h for 20 minutes.
mats: or, even, 41, infantrymen are held to a different standard
mircea_popescu: well, here's the thing : it's not a grevious sin for a 61yo man to not be able to get it up. it is at the very least bizarre for him to be in the cast of a porno movie.
mats: i dunno that it is so grievous a sin for a pilot aged 61 to be unable to run 2 miles in 20 minutes
mircea_popescu: last thing anyone wants is more fucks you couldn't carry in a warzone.
mats: well, us national guard has been doing a lot of warfighting recently.
mircea_popescu: i suppose the difference is in the concept of what's the mission for this unit. i'm thinking "national guard is for the government to have who to call when it needs a sudden influx of unskilled labour".
mats: decades of networks, relationships, first-hand knowledge of why things work a particular way, management experience, ...
mircea_popescu: but leaving that part aside, anyone overweight to the point of impaired mobility is seriously lacking in basic reasoning skills ; i have a hard time buying the theory they're of average intelligence. they probably score slightly above the "can't learn to read and write" and slightly below the "can't learn to drive" camps of retards.
mircea_popescu: prolly a better deal than trying to tow it back to maryland or w/e it is they've been trying to do and not managing since january.
mats: apparently 'walking profile' is a thing (you can walk at a brisk pace instead of running your 2mi in ~15mins)
mircea_popescu: i wonder what uss forth worth would fetch if they gave up the pretense it's a "warship" and just auctioned it off in singapore.
mircea_popescu: mats i bet they could break up a mini-rave.
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: also, you'll be pleased to note that a flash drive of the appropriate size is being shipped to me on thursday
mircea_popescu: "The House bill, for example, includes $1.5 billion for an unrequested modern “amphibious” warship for dual land and sea missions, $400 million for four unrequested C-40 aircraft to carry cargo and commanders, and $1 billion worth of unrequested National Guard equipment, a perennial pork-barrel favorite, the Taxpayers for Common Sense report said. " << so basically, 1`000`000 smartphones.
mircea_popescu: worth a chuckle
BingoBoingo: A ponder http://qntra.net/2016/07/coinjoin-not-a-privacy-tool-after-all/#comment-63157
Joshua-I: Perhaps with a question on graph theory in the front cover
Joshua-I: I suggest writing a bible
Joshua-I: Yeah I did a quick check and the answer is yes
asciilifeform: but i'd rather just have a <64kB thing.
Joshua-I: Interesting. I'll look at some c64 UIs to get a feel
asciilifeform: or even simply a plain text, minimal bytemass sort of thing.
asciilifeform: but i'm a bit sad that there is no place to put the submarine pics.
mircea_popescu: mno. you found a theme that sucks. find a theme that doesn't suck
mircea_popescu: well then find a theme that doesn't suck.
asciilifeform: i specifically wanted a new site, independent of old and producing no down time when tweaked
asciilifeform: which is to say, once somebody shares a COMPLETE package
mircea_popescu: ah. well, maybe let it be give it another try once shinohai produced a version.
asciilifeform: back when i set up original www, i used a heathen shitpress with as much as could be removed.
trinque: and hell, you want a proper blog^H^H^H^H command line interface to a bunch of articles gimmeh teh gossipd
asciilifeform: even half a debugger, that meaningfully steps through the process of shitting out the html, would be useful
trinque: written by some guy that needed to make a website one time
asciilifeform: how the fuck do folks put up with a thing with no debugger ?
asciilifeform: i will become a php monkey shortly after i learn to run the deep fryers at mickeydee's. ☟︎
trinque: or whatever it was, it's been a while
asciilifeform: <h3 id="respond"><?php _e('Post a Comment', 'veryplaintxt') ?></h3> becomes <h3 id="respond">Post a Comment</h3>
shinohai: php _e <<< that is a wordpress turd that makes it display in multiple languages iirc
asciilifeform: or, e.g., 'Post a Comment' would likewise fail to appear.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah. a thing introduced after 2008
asciilifeform: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/_e << appears to be a thing..?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform mp tarball does not include a theme.
mircea_popescu: ok, so you want it to do a "your comment is awaiting moderation" thing ?
mircea_popescu: "if comment_approved" can't be a flag at post time.
mircea_popescu: lol that's not claled "it dun work" now is it. for instance, if youy;d like your current "Your email is never published nor shared. Required fields are marked *" to read like my "If this is your first comment, it will wait to be approved. This usually takes a few hours. Subsequent comments are not delayed." then grep for the first string replace with 2nd string.
asciilifeform: there is a built-in 'if comment_approved' thing in the themes
mircea_popescu: trilema has a info bit above the comment box instead.
mircea_popescu: and you've got A LOT of things built in, not just "antispam". you got admin hardening ; gpg comments ; auto-spam tagging, ddos protection, anti-trackback flood and etc. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-06#1497630 << notrly the whole purpose, but a good chunk sure. ☝︎
asciilifeform: 'Looks like you tried to comment off a stale page. Reload the article, count to three and try again.' << that one.
a111: Logged on 2016-07-06 00:26 trinque: mod6: hey maybe the mircea_popescutronic wordpress is a better way to post TRB tutorials/updates than wiki
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-06#1497623 << might be worth a shot ☝︎
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform got a better link ?
Joshua-I: Guess I'll set up that trusted node stuff in a vm
shinohai: Working on it asciilifeform ... I just haven't had a decent box to run it all on
trinque: mod6: hey maybe the mircea_popescutronic wordpress is a better way to post TRB tutorials/updates than wiki ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2016-07-05 23:09 shinohai: I simply put "When adding nodes, ask for a signed list of IP addresses from somebody in your WoT. " in the how-to to avoid the "trusted" thing.
asciilifeform: 'http://wiki.bitcoin-assets.com/the_real_bitcoin to become a citizen.' << this is open invitation to kako to emplace goatse
mircea_popescu: what's a gabe ?
a111: Logged on 2016-07-05 23:09 shinohai: I simply put "When adding nodes, ask for a signed list of IP addresses from somebody in your WoT. " in the how-to to avoid the "trusted" thing.
mircea_popescu: that should hold us for a while then.
a111: Logged on 2016-07-05 21:21 mod6: As soon as we have a wiki page @ deedbot that doesn't have spaces in the URL, will change them.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-05#1497498 << the problem is that currently foreigners aiming to become citizens have no clear path to follow. this hasta be resolved, there must be a well maintained page somewhere they can find and follow. ☝︎
shinohai: I simply put "When adding nodes, ask for a signed list of IP addresses from somebody in your WoT. " in the how-to to avoid the "trusted" thing. ☟︎☟︎
mod6: All: Let me know if you have a fully sync'd node (and you're in my WoT) and would like to be in this list. Thanks in advance.
mod6: i just added a trusted nodes page with: deedbot's, zoolag's and pete d's ips: http://thebitcoin.foundation/trusted-nodes.html ☟︎
mod6: In the next day or so, I'll get a full list of trusted nodes still up and update the page with that as well.
mod6: ok so the Foundation homepage has been updated with a new link -- the page is stored locally.
trinque: eh it's just on a busy box
jurov: O.o and how can be a wiki so slow?
trinque: mod6: shinohai: we might want to switch to a better wiki if we're talking about a redo
mod6: maybe trinque has a way around this; may be best to see what he says first before you rework the whole shebang
mod6: <+mod6> it says: "Put the pubkeys of people you trust in there as name1.asc, name2.asc etc" << perhaps a parenthitical needs to be added to this that says: (This is a manual process.)
mod6: I will not relink any new article until it is a sane url.
asciilifeform: mod6: i was damn sure there was a draft cookbook but i slept through it, and it was not yet posted to trb www.
trinque offers again to just give ssh access to a dir somewhere over wiki
asciilifeform: TheFactory7: did you see, somewhere in rural china a pig is eating shit ? even as we speak ?
mod6: As soon as we have a wiki page @ deedbot that doesn't have spaces in the URL, will change them. ☟︎
trinque: "no luck" is a terrible bug report!!!111!
asciilifeform: wyrdmantis: your best bet is to wait for mod6 to wake up, iirc he had a draft of a recipe somewhere
deedbot: [Qntra] CoinJoin Not A Privacy Tool After All - http://qntra.net/2016/07/coinjoin-not-a-privacy-tool-after-all/
ben_vulpes: http://cruisingwithgunhead.tumblr.com/post/146941117989/new-aesthetic-via-this-guy-irl-on-twitter << nobody could have predicted their using the optic nerve as a weapon
thestringpuller: It's a good news day.
BingoBoingo: A lot of things are coming together today
shinohai: BingoBoingo on a roll today
mircea_popescu: i thought "our system" was such that the prosecutor, aiming for political office in a decade, will pursue the most fantastic claims out of a misguided desire for publicity, and then cover up the various fabrications. you know, like mayor of new york and ex bhahara giuliani ?
asciilifeform: the man was telling the truth re 'no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case'. unless 'reasonable' can somehow include 'wants to be nailgunned'
