mircea_popescu: aren'
t these a bitch to properly discharge, have to handle the tube as itlaunches ?
mircea_popescu: wasn'
t it a 3 month training course to be cleared with those ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform think strategically. 1. "you didn'
t know we knew, did you ? fail" vs 2. "you didn'
t know we knew, did you ? OR that a website was all ready to go. just how fucking inept are you, can'
t find a website, srsly ?"
mircea_popescu: the problem with the shadow fuhrer is that he couldn'
t conceivably find a reason to be bothered with actual holes.
mircea_popescu: you know this completely blows me away. there's like... 2 assets on hl that didn'
t lose most of the investor's money, and the total investment in them was... bitcents ?
mircea_popescu: "Amazing: @Chase just cancelled my debit card because a merchant may or may not have been hacked. They didn'
t call. Won'
t tell me who."
bounce: pfft. and there I was, wanting to rate 3.1415927. can'
t doo that. boo!
mircea_popescu: first off, you don'
t need fractions, you could just as well increase the max for same effect
jurov: you can'
t have fractional trust or distrust
assbot: mircea_popescu, you can'
t do that to jurov.

benkay: can'
t say as i have any intention of taking style cues from linkbait article titles.
fluffypony: benkay: didn'
t El Reg call mircea_popescu the Bitcoin Baron?
benkay: so i don'
t like crypto + aristocrat > cryptocrat
bounce: though shouldn'
t be too heavy on the SMD stuff. ie, reasonably repairable.
mircea_popescu: it's like "please don'
t kick us out of here, we know we don'
t belong, can this count as a getoutof kicking ?"
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves except check this shit out : "clearly this shit works but it's a coincidence because i don'
t think it should or see why it would"
mircea_popescu: benkay so apparently you hang out with peopple who believe whatevert they don'
t understand doesn'
t really exist
Azelphur: I haven'
t bothered to talk much here any more since having to auth up and stuff, especially with the freenode splits recently
mircea_popescu: if you're good enough to actually get forum mentions the effect in question is comparatively weak. if you're weak and rely on trying to spam forums it won'
t likely get you anything anyway. at least in a high level survey sort of mindset. no denying that derping on the internet could turn your 100 bux and 110 hours a week into 1k or w/e, just... who cares about that.
mircea_popescu: dignork the reason you don'
t remember it is precisely that it had bitcoin in it and your brain spaces it out. i don'
t remember all the coin* shit either.
pankkake: no, I don'
t know the first thing about it. my first step would be learn how to store it so that it lasts
bounce isn'
t too sure python doesn'
t secretly suck either. then again, might be I'm reading too many naggum links.
bounce: sure. mutt doesn'
t use gpgme either, IIRC
assbot: - don'
t use of 'afk' or 'away' on the chan or your nick, it's spammy
assbot: - don'
t spam too much, it's spammy
mircea_popescu: gpgme isn'
t bad, there's also a gpgagent thing that seems solid
bounce: interfacing gpg is clunky to the point there's a library to make it easier, gpgme (haven'
t checked how much it helps, to me it's just another annoying dependency), though some programs just run the commands and look at the answer strings
assbot: I don'
t do bots, Anduck.
Anduck: i thought it was because i wasn'
t authed
cgcardona_: TestingUnoDosTre: so does that mean you don'
t have to reauth everytime you come into the room?
cgcardona_: "they will jump through all sorts of rationalizations as to why their burn was a good idea." - couldn'
t you say the same thing about most people who have a vested interest in something succeeding?
benkay: "you don'
t even need to know anything!"
fluffypony: like you're just going to start this auto-blogging thing and it'll go and you won'
t need to touch it and the funds will just flow in
cgcardona_: i personally agree with you. but I don'
t think I can speak for "anyone controlling significant numbers of btc"
benkay: besides, it's a garbage example. anyone controlling significant numbers of btc won'
t be burning significant numbers of them. maybe the odd equivalent of a buttcoin to see some derps flail with their piggyback chains, but not a significant number.
fluffypony: I also don'
t see what's wrong (fundamentally) with an exchange being a central point of issuance/authority/failure, as long as it's not built and run like mtgox or litecoininvest or whatever
fluffypony: benkay: I actually don'
t understand the point of this at all
TestingUnoDosTre: no, i mean joining the wot or whatever so I don'
t have to get voiced up ery 30 minutes
TestingUnoDosTre: anyone know where the instructions are for this gpg key verification ? can'
t find in the log
benkay: bitcoin isn'
t strong enough to enforce alloidal title.
cgcardona_: it looks like cryptsy hasn'
t broadcast them yet. cause I created new addresses for each withdraw/coin and I'm not seeing those addresses show up on any blockchains yet
fluffypony: I don'
t play games often, but damn the Civilization: Beyond Earth trailer makes me want to play again
jurov: i don'
t write very often on the blog. but it's good to have.
mircea_popescu: inconfutable isn'
t english. irrefutable or incontrovertible.
mircea_popescu: basically the list of mining companies that don'
t also turn scams is vanishingly slow.
cedivad: they haven'
t delivered shit during the last month or two; they are mining themselves probably
gribble: Error: User doesn'

fluffypony: and every joke you make she keeps a deadpan face and says "that isn'
t funny"
jurov: yea, and it strives to avoid evil ASICs but as presumably they can'
t think of one, it will start with a placeholder one
mircea_popescu: jurov you shouldn'
t have voice anyway because not enough sleep!
jurov: yet i don'
t see a good nethod to verify gas expended without redoing whoiole computation
bounce: but! aristocracy! can'
t make things too easy, don'
t you know.
moiety: dont wantto miss something at 7:35 // ahh kk why didn'
t you sleep?
mircea_popescu: it's more expensive, so you actually don'
t want to run a clean system.
mircea_popescu: well, they didn'
t exist in brabant as such, nor in northern italy, nor in england
mike_c: I just hate BI. such trash. can'
t decide if they're worse than gawker, but it's a close race to the bottom of the toilet bowl.
Azelphur: would have done it if I didn'
t like my freedom so much :p
Azelphur: mircea_popescu: nah, remember you wanted me to open a brokerage, and I did a lot of code, but didn'
t release it because of the whole going to jail thing.
Azelphur: oh, I wasn'
t aware of the new channel settings
mircea_popescu: artifexd course, you could say that to him rather than to me. he doesn'
t know it, i do.
artifexd: @jy-p> it's a nice little bullshit trick that is used by people who don'
t get their work done
artifexd: So... gmaxwell is harassing the conformal guys about how they developed btcd. It comes across as so... I don'
t know... petty.
moiety: trainspotting is not a favourite of mine, ican'
t deny its done well though. I much prefer Shallow Grave
bounce: I know about trainspotting. just haven'
t actually seen all of it.
mircea_popescu: "Very difficult. That's very difficult, do you understand? It's difficult because you're selling to a particular group. Fat cats. Big shots. Guys who can afford $200k. And guys who can use a whole fucking suitcase full of cocaine. Basically, Clarence, guys I don'
t know. And guys you don'
t know. And more importantly, they don'
t know you."
