00:01 asciilifeform at the risk of repeating, anyone concerned with boobytrapped hardware should actually take the time to think about /what it could actually do/ in their scenario
00:02 asciilifeform e.g. what, exactly, does the enemy get if he can execute an arbitrary instruction instead of the next coming one, at a given time
00:02 BitcoinKike I have a leak to the powerline.
00:02 asciilifeform or what does he get if it broadcasts every 16th word fetched from ram
00:02 asciilifeform or, or, or...
00:03 dignork asciilifeform: is there any way to grep/search in log.bitcoin-assets.com ? I mean like a month range. I can hack together some crawler, but maybe there is on already.
00:03 asciilifeform dignork: no idea
00:04 BitcoinKike dignork: Try nao and ask kako's forgiveness later?
00:04 asciilifeform continuing: for instance, a chip that enthusiastically pisses bits to the power rail is perfectly usable if it never gets to share its power rail with anything
00:04 asciilifeform (runs off battery)
00:04 assbot [HAVELOCK] [PETA] 10 @ 0.106 = 1.06 BTC [-] {2}
00:05 asciilifeform a chip that is suspected of broadcasting more than its 'fair share' is pefectly usable inside a miniature faraday cage
00:05 asciilifeform and likewise for one which is thought to receive (so long as the cage is in place, and likewise supply and ground rails are filtered)

00:06 asciilifeform this is an actual subject and i cannot hope to make it fit into these sound bites
00:06 asciilifeform but i really wish people had some actual picture in their head of what it means to distrust a hardware vendor
00:06 asciilifeform beyond simple 'ritual unclean' voodoo.
00:06 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: We know, that is why I file down aluminum cans during downtime.

02:08 mircea_popescu o look at that, Luke-Jr needs to learn to listen to mp.
02:09 Luke-Jr why?
02:09 mircea_popescu because you'd still have 70% of your savings, that's why.
02:10 Luke-Jr I didn't know you had access to MtGox's code
02:10 mircea_popescu there's a lot of things you didn't know. but the fact that i said mtgox is going down, you knew.
02:10 mircea_popescu next time, listen. it's not like it's coming out of my pocket if you don't, you know ?
02:10 Luke-Jr oh, so I'm supposed to just believe everything you say but can't/won't provide evidence for?
02:10 mircea_popescu nope.
02:11 mircea_popescu you're supposed to listen to it. there's a fucking difference.
02:12 Luke-Jr if I knew it, then I must have listened to you say it.
02:12 mircea_popescu notrly.
02:12 Luke-Jr and thought you were full of crap since you couldn't substantiate it
02:12 mircea_popescu yeah well, see, that's a broken implication there.
02:12 mircea_popescu or two. however you count.
02:13 Luke-Jr mircea_popescu: did *you* steal the bitcoins?
02:13 Apocalyptic heh
02:13 mircea_popescu if we had the luxury of discarding anything of reality that doesn't conveniently fit with our theoreitcal system, we wouldn't for instance be stuckl with quantum mechanics.
02:13 Luke-Jr because right now, it sounds like you're implicitly confessing
02:13 mircea_popescu newtonian physics'd have been just fine,
02:13 mircea_popescu Luke-Jr no, it just sounds like you still have issues listening.
02:14 mircea_popescu i get that you're very emotionally invested in this "master of all i survey" nonsense, but that's not how reality works.
02:14 Luke-Jr the only way to know MtGox was going down like this, is if you had evidence, or you were behind it
02:14 Luke-Jr and you clearly did not have evidence
02:14 mircea_popescu lmao
02:14 mircea_popescu because why.
02:14 Apocalyptic having evidence is different from diclosing it
02:14 mircea_popescu because i live in Luke-Jr world, where if Luke-Jr asks i am forced to comply ?
02:15 Luke-Jr Apocalyptic: yes, but mircea_popescu is generally clueless too
02:15 mircea_popescu i guess 30% of your savings is too much for you huh.
02:15 mircea_popescu aite, carry on.
02:16 mircea_popescu asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: it is foolish to consider diddled cpus without having a picture of the actual possibilities in mind. <<< now how does this follow ?!
02:16 Luke-Jr mircea_popescu: just because you're right for once in your life, does not mean you will be right ever again
02:16 mircea_popescu Luke-Jr apparently your one-bit counter is well smashed.
02:17 mircea_popescu add some overflow control there.
02:19 Apocalyptic reading some article about this BMG ponzi
02:19 Apocalyptic "Naivety multiplied by greed made the existence of such investment schemes possible in Slovakia" // like it's any different in any other ponzi

03:28 davout does anyone know about some spreadhseet software that uses decimals instead of floats?
03:28 davout ie. that can count
03:28 FabianB btcoincharts is probably the only one that works without js
03:28 mircea_popescu https://bitcoinity.org/markets?theme=light seems fine.
03:28 ozbot bitcoinity.org/markets
03:28 mircea_popescu davout wasn't open office settable to use fixed point ?
03:28 benkay` if you look sideways at the TATINVESTMENTS logo you can see a WTF
03:28 davout i'm mildly satisfied with my accounting delta being -0,000000000000206057393370429
03:29 davout mircea_popescu: thanks! i'll have a look
03:29 anddam davout: I don't but is rounding error with floats that important?
03:29 davout anddam: accounting is right or it isn't, it can't be sort-of right
03:29 benkay` i will come harp at you over rounding errors of less than a satoshi anddam
03:30 benkay` ask mircea_popescu
03:30 anddam davout: when you use floating point arithmetic it can
03:30 davout anddam: "does anyone know about some spreadhseet software that uses decimals instead of floats?" <<< hence the question :D
03:30 mircea_popescu i suppose the concept here is that math will have to suit the task, not the othjer way around
03:31 davout anddam: what's to tell me it doesn't compound in weird ways ?
03:31 anddam well, math would be exact, but when you're using a computer you're using an approximation
03:31 davout anddam: except when you're using decimals
03:31 anddam math is ideal, at least the one that was taught to me

04:48 Apocalyptic <anarchystar> bitcoins just got ignored
04:48 Apocalyptic <anarchystar> total insanity
04:48 Apocalyptic <anarchystar> bye bye btc claims
04:48 Apocalyptic hum that could set a precedent about btc liabilities during liquidations
04:49 dexX7 what's the context? was there any statement about a potential fiat bailout?
04:49 jurov Apocalyptic: there isn't any other way
04:50 Apocalyptic jurov, isn't there ?
04:50 jurov where would they get bitcoins to resolve liabilities otherwise?
04:52 Apocalyptic they wouldn't need to get them, just price them in the liability sheets
04:54 jurov that has potential to create a mess
04:54 mircea_popescu Apocalyptic pretty much already established precedent.
04:54 Apocalyptic mircea, wasn't aware, what case are you referring to ?
04:55 jurov if i had usd-only position at time of bankruptcy, why should i share my claim with people who had btc-only positions?
04:55 jurov and even if, what is the fair btc price here?

04:56 kakobrekla mods close the bets when it needs to be, you can leave them a message on bitbet comments
04:57 wbaw their lawyer just made an announcement
04:57 wbaw that seems to satisfy the bet?
04:57 jurov yes, put the link into bitbet comment
04:57 jurov and let them do their job
04:58 Apocalyptic <jurov> and even if, what is the fair btc price here? // hard to find a definitive answer here, but you can still can pick a reasonable one
04:59 jurov that's anything betwen 100 and 500
04:59 Apocalyptic <jurov> if i had usd-only position at time of bankruptcy // that's kinda irrelevant
05:00 wao-ender lul https://twitter.com/The_K_meister/status/439338278496374784
05:02 jurov Apocalyptic: why irrelevant? bankruptcy law applies only to fiat, it says nothing about BTC. Attempts to shoehorn BTC in there can be disastrous.
05:03 jurov Listing BTC that are left on the papers and trying to pay them out would be Karpeles goodwill attempt, nothing more.

05:34 mircea_popescu there are very many reputable bookmakers in btc outside of bitbet.
05:34 wbaw i'll ask william hill next time

05:39 Duffer1 i know, i'm just shocked at the gall
05:39 mircea_popescu so you go to the shop around the corner and what happens ?
05:40 wbaw mircea_popescu, i walk into a shop, place a bet, get fixed odds & a betting receipt
05:40 mircea_popescu Duffer1 that's basically why people need lawyers for. average joe can't possibly summon all the needed gall for even trivial legal proceedings
05:40 mircea_popescu wbaw ok. and once you win ?
05:40 wbaw then when it wins i claim my payout in cash
05:40 mircea_popescu how ?
05:40 Duffer1 ya apparently
05:40 wbaw i go to the shop
05:40 wbaw and they pay out
05:40 mircea_popescu so what if you get caught in traffic ?
05:40 wbaw when the result is known
05:41 wbaw then i get my payout a few minutes later
05:41 mircea_popescu and what if there's a queue ?
05:41 wbaw but, it's walking distance anyway
05:41 wbaw then i go to a shop with more staff
05:41 mircea_popescu but that may be farther away.
05:42 wbaw there are 5 or 6 within a short walk, but i think william hill is the only one that takes random bets like this

05:42 mircea_popescu and to take this full seinfeld, what if you accidentally get triple-action moisturizer with uva on your ticket and now it's illegible ?
05:42 wbaw mircea_popescu, they keep a record of all the bets
05:42 mircea_popescu aha
05:42 mircea_popescu so you need what, your id ?
05:43 wbaw you've never visited a real bookmaker?
05:43 mircea_popescu nope.
05:43 wbaw you need the details of the bet
05:43 wbaw time, amount, etc
05:43 mircea_popescu generally all those i've seen are dingy affairs in the poor parts of town,
05:43 mircea_popescu where the cash checking and pond shops are
05:43 wbaw they're huge companies here in the uk
05:44 mircea_popescu huge companies they are everywhere, but still, much in the way mcdonalds is a huge company :
05:44 mircea_popescu a huge company made out of a lot of small, smelly, dingy little outifits.
05:44 wbaw when i pay for a burger at mcdonalds they usually give me one
05:44 wbaw without much fuss
05:44 mircea_popescu yeah but once you'll graduate to restaurants you'll maybe notice you order and then wait
05:44 wbaw same when i pay for a bet at a bookmaker
05:44 wbaw except this one
05:45 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 10087 @ 0.00086358 = 8.7109 BTC [-]
05:45 mircea_popescu anyway, don't sweat it, i'm sure you'll have it by tomorrow, whatever it is.
05:45 wbaw you really shouldn't still be accepting bets, it's just to take fees for nothing or skew the odds
05:46 mircea_popescu what do you mean for nothing ?
05:46 mircea_popescu someone betting after the event is known seems something.
05:46 wbaw you take a 1% fee from returned bets, says on your site
05:46 mircea_popescu surely.

05:47 mircea_popescu go preet go!
05:47 wbaw so, what is an official announcement?
05:47 wbaw for the context of that bet?
05:47 mircea_popescu dood, i'm sure it's good enough, a mod needs to get to it.
05:47 mircea_popescu stop sweatin' it, srsly.
05:47 wbaw because it seems pretty official
05:47 mircea_popescu yeah.
05:48 chetty Seriously whats the rush? Not like you can get interest on BTC
05:48 wbaw should have faster service instead of acting like you're not trying to compete with huge companies with customer support teams
05:49 mircea_popescu i actually am not competing with huge companies for the favours of you.
05:49 chetty hmm what huge company with lots of support team takes btc bets? I might want to check that out

07:41 ThickAsThieves well i just woke up and everything was the way it should be!
07:42 ThickAsThieves wbaw that's one issue you won't win me over on
07:42 ThickAsThieves customers are rude and arrogant

07:43 ThickAsThieves if you want civil interactions with people, try being a human being
07:43 wbaw other bookmakers don't call me a bitch for giving them money
07:44 wbaw no other bookmaker that has lasted has done that
07:44 wbaw to any customer
07:44 ThickAsThieves so
07:44 ThickAsThieves even if you are right
07:44 wbaw every business has to serve it's customers or it fails
07:44 ThickAsThieves let bitbet run its own business
07:44 ThickAsThieves when did you become ceo
07:44 wbaw i will
07:44 ThickAsThieves and when did they ask for your opinion
07:44 ThickAsThieves and when did your opinion matter?
07:44 wbaw when i became a customer & paid them money
07:45 ThickAsThieves no that's when you entered a contract
07:45 ThickAsThieves their only obligation is to fill it
07:45 ThickAsThieves on their terms
07:45 ThickAsThieves which you accepted
07:45 wbaw then again when i remembered never to use it again & recommend against it
07:45 ThickAsThieves dont enter into arrangements with people then complain when they execute them
07:46 assbot [HAVELOCK] [B.MINE] 4 @ 0.0538 = 0.2152 BTC [+] {2}

07:46 ThickAsThieves no, you were complaining about HOW they execute them
07:46 ThickAsThieves which you dont get to
07:46 wbaw or being too slow to execute them because they were too busy abusing customers
07:47 ThickAsThieves unless it breaks their contract
07:47 ThickAsThieves does bitbet say it will solve all bets in under X amount of time?
07:47 wbaw every bookmaker closes bets when the event is over
07:48 wbaw every other
07:48 wbaw so i will just use those instead
07:48 wbaw now please stop arguing with former customers
07:48 ThickAsThieves ok

07:55 Duffer1 ah i'm not a gambler, i haven't kept up with the offerings in the space
07:56 ThickAsThieves the best part about these bitbet naysaying interlopers is that it's always for like $50 bets
07:57 wbaw they have lots of big competitors but they think they're different because it's magical internet money so customer service doesn't count
07:57 ThickAsThieves and they demand to be customer that is always right and able to take all business away
07:57 ThickAsThieves wbaw do you even lose anything here?
07:57 wbaw ThickAsThieves, why risk a big bet on your first go with some shady site?
07:57 ThickAsThieves why act like some stange site killed your cat?
07:57 wbaw they know not to come back after that
07:58 Duffer1 I am certain that those involved with Bitbet regard Bitcoin as substantially more valuable than fiat
07:58 wbaw i'm used to better service, rather than being insulted by staff
07:58 ThickAsThieves youre used to be being manipulated is what you are
07:59 ThickAsThieves salesmanship is all you know
07:59 ThickAsThieves not service
07:59 wbaw we will see who's still here in 10 years

08:06 wbaw the customer service response i got to my email yesterday
08:06 ThickAsThieves which caused you what harm?
08:06 Duffer1 i was under the impression that bets are moderated by the exchange
08:07 Duffer1 I don't see how fixing could occur without collusion by employees
08:07 wbaw because you just said you have no experience gambling
08:07 ThickAsThieves dont lose me
08:07 ThickAsThieves which caused you what harm?
08:08 * ThickAsThieves crickets

17:08 mircea_popescu kakobrekla you tihnking of making an irc network ?
17:09 kakobrekla well, it was more of a joke and id rather not, but if it comes to it, i would.
17:10 kakobrekla like the 15th standard you know.
17:10 mircea_popescu it's a bitch to run them tho, because ddos.
17:10 asciilifeform did anyone ever step up with decent hosting for whatever?
17:10 mircea_popescu i'd much rather add servers to freenode's pool than split the effort.
17:10 mircea_popescu then again, that'd require them extracting head from bunghole, which may prove more difficult.
17:10 asciilifeform phuctor is still languishing on a godforsaken EC2
17:11 mircea_popescu asciilifeform not rly any serious btc hoster as of yet
17:11 asciilifeform phuck.
17:11 mircea_popescu it's only been 5 years of btc so...
17:11 kakobrekla well it depends on the size i guess, we have a small alter irc network in slovenia with like 200 people and 3 or so servers, works just fine for years
17:11 mircea_popescu kakobrekla and then agency X wants to send 100gbit floods because why not.
17:11 jurov asciilifeform: what about SDF?
17:12 jurov http://sdf.lonestar.org/
17:12 ozbot SDF Public Access UNIX System - Free Shell Account and Shell Access
17:12 asciilifeform jurov: i thought that was a 'free shell for people learning unix' thing
17:13 jurov no, iirc they offer full paid package
17:13 asciilifeform jurov: for btc?
17:13 kakobrekla im not saying it cant happen but small fishes dont stand out
17:13 mircea_popescu kakobrekla yeah but once we move assets there it becomes huge fish
17:13 jurov they don't even take linux seriously. don't ask them about btc
17:14 asciilifeform mircea_popescu, kakobrekla: at least when irc.assets.whatever gets ddosed, we'll know that it's for us and not for some lamer on #l33td00dz or whatnot.

17:30 diametric err accurate is not the word I meant
17:30 diametric I mean, smooth
17:30 mircea_popescu what are they made of ?
17:31 asciilifeform diametric: you don't need much accuracy if you fix a photocell to the platform, to measure power (since whole point of z-axis is to focus the beam ideally)
17:31 diametric something cheap I'm sure, the leadscrews in mine are really, really crappy.
17:31 diametric asciilifeform: yeah
17:31 asciilifeform so have the beam return to the measuring cell periodically

19:46 moiety oh thanks very much :D thats fab
19:47 nubbins` so i dropped my rpm challenge CDs off today at the record store, and they gave me a coupon for 15% off my next purchase!

19:53 asciilifeform moiety: sintering machine? old news
19:53 asciilifeform i think diametric has one
19:53 nubbins` so after a quick google search led me to the wikipedia page about discordia, the story behind EFNet's name is suddenly funnier

19:55 HeySteve discordia is a dark tower thing isn't it? what's that to do with EFNet?
19:56 nubbins` among other things, it is indeed mentioned in the dark tower
19:56 asciilifeform moiety: sintering printer typically uses the same setup as laser cutter, with a bucket full of powdered Al or whichever metal where the bed would normally go
19:56 nubbins` discordia is the latin name of the greek goddess eris
19:56 asciilifeform you fuze a layer, then spread more powder, and so on, until the piece is complete
19:56 nubbins` who was the goddess of strife, chaos, and discord

19:57 asciilifeform moiety: the basic concept goes back to the '80s
19:57 asciilifeform none of this is really new.
19:57 nubbins` the lel being that EFNet (eris-free network) got its name after its predecessor network delinked a server called irc.eris.<tld>
19:57 moiety jesus 80s?
19:57 nubbins` because eris sucked so bad
19:57 nubbins` and with a name like that, how could it not!
19:58 nubbins` sorry, eris.berkeley.edu

20:09 asciilifeform nubbins`: wait - what are they supposed to pocket as rent ?
20:09 nubbins` oh, you!
20:09 Duffer1 I mostly specify this as a parting fuck you broadside to the MtGox troop of idiots, who thought that perhaps if they re-do the original MtGox “hack” I may have trouble. It’s cute, I guess, in the sense of a bunch of ducks trying to work together to provoke waves that’ll sink a neighbouring battleship.
20:10 nubbins` i once called this slumlord to inform him that i was getting the city to clean up the apartment's worth of possessions his workers dumped on the sidewalk, on his dime
20:10 nubbins` halfway through the conversation he interrupts me with "what are you telling me for?", followed by a toilet flushing
20:10 nubbins` had a good lel at that after i calmed down
20:11 asciilifeform 'If they're taking in taxpayer dollars to provide accommodations for their tenants, there should be some oversight — especially by government — as to what people are living in.'
20:11 asciilifeform imagine if this actually happened
20:11 nubbins` lel
20:11 nubbins` well the next logical step would be oversight as to what the tenants spend their remaining money on
20:11 BingoBoingo Wow, Bitcoin finally outgrew fiat exchanges
20:11 asciilifeform (see the 'last psychiatrist' piece mp linked to the other day)
20:11 mircea_popescu so basically the canadian government actually wants to run everything or what
20:11 nubbins` and good luck with that
20:12 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo not without some trepidation.
20:12 nubbins` mircea_popescu, the cbc wants that, but the government doesn't
20:12 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: This is so much more thrilling than last spring.
20:12 nubbins` (incidentally, this is a provincial, not a federal, thing)
20:12 mircea_popescu lol
20:12 mircea_popescu it IS always the spring, isn't it.
20:12 * nubbins` thinks
20:12 nubbins` actually, no, it's not
20:13 nubbins` anyway, there's no solution
20:13 copumpkin omg lord master mircea_popescu has decreed that the price be $500
20:13 copumpkin and it will be so
20:13 Bugpowder mircea_popescu: so dividend gets paid March 3?
20:13 mircea_popescu yeah
20:13 mircea_popescu copumpkin ;/
20:13 mircea_popescu what the fuck am i to do
20:13 nubbins` so a house gets bedbugs. the landlord fumigates at great expense. the dirtbags infest the place again. repeat ad infinitum.
20:13 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: Indeed. SHit happend in spring. Then calms during the summer when schoolkids have too much time, a bit of drama happens in the fall, there is a bit of winter buildup, then SPRING
20:13 copumpkin mircea_popescu: I don't know! just commenting

20:14 nubbins` alternately: a house gets bedbugs. the tenants fumigate at great expense. the bedbugs come back from the house next door. repeat ad infinitum.
20:14 mircea_popescu nubbins` is it expensive to fumigate ?
20:14 assbot [HAVELOCK] [NEOBEE] 50 @ 0.0051 = 0.255 BTC [+]
20:14 nubbins` well the problem is most of downtown is row houses, attached on both sides. generally fumigation doesn't do shit
20:14 BingoBoingo Prolly expensive in Canada, but in canada everything is expensive.
20:15 nubbins` BingoBoingo, everything but the drugs
20:15 mircea_popescu (i've never fumigated anything. oddly enough, bedbugs etc do not exist in romania)
20:15 nubbins` they didn't exist here either until the past couple years
20:15 nubbins` this is a very recent thing
20:15 mircea_popescu welfare helps all bugs and cockroaches across the board
20:15 mircea_popescu not just the bipedal ones.
20:15 nubbins` nod

20:15 asciilifeform story goes that they were re-introduced from somewhere in mexico.
20:15 mircea_popescu nope.
20:15 nubbins` the other problem is that welfare tenants generally won't tell the landlord if the house is infested.
20:16 nubbins` the only clues are a succession of stained mattresses and couches left on the sidewalk over a period of several weeks
20:16 mircea_popescu nubbins` or anyone else anything else, for that matter.
20:16 nubbins` nod
20:16 mircea_popescu i vividly recall this discussion between a veterinarian and a inner city md

21:02 mircea_popescu <nubbins`> as much as i'd like to move overseas to wield a can of raid << lmao
21:02 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: I though the Internet was strong enough people know electric boogaloo's are sequels.
21:02 mircea_popescu your customer service sucs

21:03 copumpkin mircea_popescu: I keep getting unrecognized signature even though I'm using the same key I used to sign up :(
21:03 copumpkin says to email you my key but I did that long long ago :P
21:04 mircea_popescu copumpkin did you ever re-email it as per teh verification last year /
21:04 mircea_popescu ?
21:04 assbot [HAVELOCK] [PETA] 1 @ 0.11379998 BTC [+]
21:04 copumpkin oh, no
21:04 copumpkin I wasn't paying attention
21:04 copumpkin that was a thing?
21:04 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: Really the point of Ukraine as of now isn't the end political outcome, as far as that bet is concerned. It's determining how overtly "Black Ops" can happen in a white people country before commandos have to have affiliations, because Geneva protocols and conventions and such.
21:04 copumpkin mircea_popescu: I guess you have no way to contact me or even any knowledge of me having an account :P

21:05 mircea_popescu copumpkin mpex may be the only entity in bitcoin which has gone two years without sending a single greatly informative and muchly important email blast.
21:06 copumpkin :)
21:06 mircea_popescu but anyway, lemme dig it for you.
21:06 copumpkin only because you don't have my email!
21:06 copumpkin :P
21:06 copumpkin should I just email you the key again?
21:06 nubbins` just email mine instead
21:06 copumpkin (goes to show how active a user I am)
21:06 mircea_popescu yeah.
21:07 copumpkin nubbins`: lol
21:07 mircea_popescu well technically you could extract some sort of email from gpg keys, but i never bothered to.
21:07 copumpkin mircea_popescu: office@polimedia? that's where the old one went
21:07 mircea_popescu yea
21:07 nubbins` 'cause, y'know, it'd work or something
21:07 BingoBoingo OMG copumpkin is selling his S.MPOE, sell first!!!
21:07 copumpkin BingoBoingo: nah, trying to remember how much I have
21:07 copumpkin and I can't even run a STAT: P
21:09 mircea_popescu lol
21:09 mircea_popescu eleven bentlees
21:09 copumpkin that'd be amusing
21:09 copumpkin I don't think I can even afford one bentley though
21:09 nubbins` bentleys are vulgar
21:09 mircea_popescu o look, greene sueing mtgox
21:10 mircea_popescu copumpkin anyone with s.mpoe stock should afford a bentley!
21:10 copumpkin lol
21:10 copumpkin I don't think I bought enough of it back then
21:10 mircea_popescu copumpkin bentleys are divisible, so you should at least get a few bentloshis.
21:11 copumpkin lol I hope so
21:11 moiety LOL
21:11 copumpkin but what keyserver can I find your keys on?
21:12 copumpkin I want to encrypt my email to office but I can't find the key for it
21:12 mircea_popescu i has no idea ?
21:12 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: Still looking at the legal history of Illinois governors, being a n00b and being pissed about Gox because he was too good for warnings makes his Derping rather inconsequential in the history of embarassing things about Illinois
21:12 copumpkin oh well
21:12 mircea_popescu copumpkin http://trilema.com/pgp/
21:12 mircea_popescu it's impossible to keep track of keyservers and i kind-of gave up.
21:12 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo the law firm is the key there.
21:12 mircea_popescu they wanted to do the suit. it's clearly a zerocost thing.
21:13 copumpkin okay, emailed and encrypted :D
21:13 nubbins` best thing that ever happened to illinois was a sufjan stevens album
21:13 mircea_popescu talking about how it's a "natural extension of their practice" and whatnot

21:13 mircea_popescu asshole.
21:13 copumpkin lol
21:13 nubbins` lel
21:14 copumpkin so you want to be a politician
21:14 mircea_popescu maybe vajina some days.
21:14 mircea_popescu where do you fall ?
21:14 assbot [HAVELOCK] [NEOBEE] 55 @ 0.00509999 = 0.2805 BTC [-]
21:14 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: Eh, if it isn't Cueto and Cueto it isn't an Illinois enough case
21:14 mircea_popescu "So, we don’t have to worry about Japanese laws and how they apply."
21:14 copumpkin mircea_popescu: I'm firmly in the "don't be an asshole" camp :)
21:15 copumpkin I'm sure that's a huge surprise to you
21:15 mircea_popescu hallo we are 12 and don't need to worry about our asshole.
21:15 mircea_popescu copumpkin lol

21:15 mircea_popescu obviously, as you'd imagine, my view is that the world is split among the assholes that admit it and the assholes that don't.
21:16 copumpkin I actually don't entirely disagree
21:16 mircea_popescu also asshole kinda looks like fasole,
21:16 mircea_popescu which is romanian for beans
21:16 copumpkin lol
21:16 mircea_popescu which are empirically related
21:16 BingoBoingo What is it with people trying to do anything in Illinois and not realizing you have to buy whatever jurisdiction you want to operate in, either outright or as a time-share
21:17 nubbins` i made refried beans for the first time last week
21:17 nubbins` i think i mentioned it at the time
21:17 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo maybe they has ? tbh the dumbledore lawyer guy sort-of evokes jackie chiles for me.
21:17 copumpkin mircea_popescu: do you have some sort of defense against replay attacks on mpex btw? what if I send a "sell X" command and someone sniffs it and sends it again?
21:17 assbot [HAVELOCK] [NEOBEE] 100 @ 0.0051 = 0.51 BTC [+]
21:17 nubbins` it's too bad they're called that in english, because it's kind of a rotten name for a food
21:17 mircea_popescu copumpkin try it ?
21:17 copumpkin all I get for now is "unrecognized signature" :)
21:18 mircea_popescu nubbins` if that's your ocmplaint what about tossed salad ?
21:18 mircea_popescu copumpkin clearly secure then :D
21:18 nubbins` we call it garden salad here
21:18 mircea_popescu but srsly, yes.
21:18 copumpkin mircea_popescu: lol
21:18 nubbins` as you can imagine, tossed salad brings jelly-covered anus to mind
21:19 mircea_popescu ahahahaha omfg no fucking way
21:19 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo i finally clicked your link. DO THESE ATTORNEYS EVEN LEAFT!
21:19 mircea_popescu s/ATTORNEYS/ATTORNYES
21:19 nubbins` ATTRNOYES
21:20 copumpkin mircea_popescu: will I get some sort of confirmation when the key is accepted?
21:20 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: See, like the Groupons of the Illinois legal game
21:20 mircea_popescu copumpkin yeah
21:20 copumpkin cool
21:20 Azelphur mircea_popescu: what's your opinion on the whole gox thing, think they'll get back up after a while? :P
21:20 * copumpkin watches MPOE crash to 0.000000001
21:20 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo does that page look as broken to you as it does to me or is it just a case of "our designer made it look good in chrome"
21:21 mircea_popescu Azelphur you can freely trade mtgox debt for bitcoinica debt on a 1:1 parity
21:21 copumpkin mircea_popescu: keybase.io, does that look like something you'd use?
21:21 mircea_popescu or any other parity your favourite rng suggests.
21:21 Azelphur fun
21:21 Azelphur so no, then xD
21:22 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: They used some javascript in the layout it seems. Works ok in the factory firefox install, not in the useful firefox install though
21:22 Azelphur I was a plonker and bought gox debt
21:22 Azelphur \o/
21:22 mircea_popescu copumpkin "Keybase will be a public directory of publicly auditable public keys. All paired, for convenience, with unique usernames."
21:22 mircea_popescu explain ?
21:22 mircea_popescu in like, nonretard english.
21:23 mircea_popescu "I graduated cum laude with a degree in philosophy from Brandeis University and received my J.D. from the University of Michigan Law School"
21:23 copumpkin as far as I can tell, their goals are: 1) provide a standard mechanism to link online accounts in a crpytographically secure way that doesn't require trust of their servers 2) make gpg more user-friendly
21:23 mircea_popescu dude brandeis is where the mass governor's escorts go to school.
21:23 copumpkin so they have a website that lets you link online profiles and a command-line tool that talks to the site and calls gpg
21:23 copumpkin ultimately, they're mostly a fancier keyserver
21:24 mircea_popescu i guess.
21:24 BingoBoingo I know. People who care go to SIU.
21:24 copumpkin Azelphur: pl0nk
21:24 mircea_popescu copumpkin so why do i want to use them ?
21:24 Azelphur yup
21:24 Azelphur I'm 97 BTC deep in gox, bought at ~0.14 (so 15 BTC)
21:24 copumpkin mircea_popescu: I dunno, they're pretty, and seem to provide some nice identity linkage stuff that seems handy. Otherwise, not much point :)
21:24 copumpkin I like the service
21:25 copumpkin mostly because I want more people to use gpg
21:25 mircea_popescu so basically what, they scrape social media sites for snippets signed by x sig ? a la gribble except spammier ?
21:25 copumpkin yeah, basically
21:25 mircea_popescu i cant see any harm in it
21:25 assbot [HAVELOCK] [NEOBEE] 33 @ 0.0051 = 0.1683 BTC [+]
21:25 mircea_popescu i wouldn't personally use it because i don't actually use any social media sites.
21:25 copumpkin ah, fair enough :)
21:26 mircea_popescu except i guess twitter but i don't really gas if x is y or not there
21:26 kakobrekla goes to twitter to tell the world, "i dun use social meddia situes"
21:26 nubbins` so how do you know who's going to trivia night on tuesday?!
21:26 nubbins` talk to people?
21:26 nubbins` DO YOU EVEN INTERNET
21:26 mircea_popescu hardly.
21:26 mircea_popescu i mostly pay people to internet for me.
21:26 assbot [HAVELOCK] [B.EXCH] 1 @ 0.13311598 BTC [-]
21:26 mircea_popescu which reminds me of the joke with the jooz.
21:26 nubbins` ah, that's fair
21:27 copumpkin I bet you're paying someone to type these messages right now, while someone else is giving you a rusty trombone
21:27 mircea_popescu nah, that was earlier
21:27 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: Well Twitter's upside is that you can school someone in front of their internet friends and make their internet friends wonder why they associated in the first place.
21:28 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo i mostly use it because it's full of derps of the "holier than thou" school of assholery.
21:28 mircea_popescu i like those.
21:28 gesell1 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu I may go knock on Jay's door on monday
21:29 mircea_popescu but anyway, one day when i'm rich i'll splurge and get myself a smartphone
21:29 copumpkin lol
21:29 BingoBoingo gesell1: Who the hell is Jay?
21:29 MisterE fuck smartphones
21:29 mircea_popescu and then the whole universe of social media sites will lay open before me
21:29 copumpkin sounds awesome
21:29 MisterE I'm in front of a computer enough
21:29 MisterE I dont need one with me
21:29 BingoBoingo Eh, I used to have smartphones.
21:29 copumpkin I have a smartphone but I hate using it
21:29 mircea_popescu gesell1 aite.
21:29 gesell1 BingoBoingo: the lawyer you linked too
21:29 copumpkin iphone4, so slow it's too unpleasant to use
21:29 nubbins` copumpkin: there's an easy solution there ;p
21:29 copumpkin I made the mistake of installing ios7
21:29 mircea_popescu gesell1 is he actually smart irl ?
21:29 copumpkin and now it's unusably slow
21:29 MisterE I look around me and everyone's face is buried in their phones I think its sad
21:30 copumpkin so I just don't do anything on it
21:30 gesell1 mircea_popescu: i have no idea. does he need to be?
21:30 nubbins` copumpkin, generally it's less of a good idea to update ios after new hardware comes out.
21:30 BingoBoingo gesell1: Ah, that one. I just prefer the lower parts of the state.
21:30 copumpkin except, err, make phone calls
21:30 mircea_popescu MisterE ikr? at least they could have the decency to get the salmon colored models.
21:30 copumpkin nubbins`: yeah yeah, but they don't let us downgrade, so oh well :)
21:30 nubbins` :D
21:30 nubbins` aren't you glad you bought in?
21:30 mircea_popescu gesell1 yes, it usually helps if the lawyer putting together a cas is smart.
21:30 MisterE my GF's iP 4 runs iOS 7 fine
21:31 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: It is why I only use lawyers with Drive throughs.
21:31 copumpkin MisterE: I hear it gets better with the latest 7.* update where you can disable effects
21:31 copumpkin but mine is painfully slow
21:31 gesell1 well so i will find out monday
21:31 mircea_popescu copumpkin can it boil an egg at least ?
21:31 MisterE I dunno it's the GFs and I dont go there
21:31 copumpkin nope :(
21:31 mircea_popescu gesell1 be sure to report bacl :D
21:31 MisterE last thing I want is to support her phone
21:32 gesell1 is there a problem if I pursue mtgox from 3 different lawyers at once?
21:32 kakobrekla but you are supporting here
21:32 kakobrekla her*
21:32 MisterE lol you're suing Gox?
21:32 kakobrekla and so apple.
21:32 MisterE talk abotu throwing good money after bad
21:32 mircea_popescu kakobrekla i blame ever for the apple.
21:32 mircea_popescu MisterE i'd be much surprised if the lawyer charges anything.
21:32 gesell1 MisterE: no im just in the initial stages of contacting each and every collective that is gathering to sue
21:32 MisterE pro bono?
21:32 kakobrekla i would not even consider iphone using female fyi.
21:32 mircea_popescu he's in it for positioning, which is strategically sound
21:33 mircea_popescu MisterE no, just 99.9x% of any eventual proceeds.
21:33 mircea_popescu gesell1 how much did you manage to donate via gox ?
21:33 MisterE oh, I doubt there will be anything of value left for creditors
21:33 MisterE but if there is you can be sure lawyers will get theirs
21:33 MisterE donate lol
21:33 gesell1 mircea_popescu: over 100btc
21:34 kakobrekla you gonna lose more coins suing than gain
21:34 MisterE ouch
21:34 BingoBoingo kakobrekla: Around here most lawyers handling those sorts of complaints work on contingency, so they only get paid if they win
21:34 mircea_popescu kakobrekla the way the legal profession works in the us is that sometimes lawyers take cases for free, when they figure the bread is buttered on the other side.
21:35 kakobrekla yeah but paid from where
21:35 kakobrekla with what
21:35 kakobrekla from who
21:35 nubbins` from the booty
21:35 BingoBoingo kakobrekla: Asbestos companies usually
21:35 nubbins` sort of like a mortgage advisor
21:36 nubbins` they work for "free"
21:36 nubbins` where free = a portion of your mortgage
21:36 kakobrekla the only way out of here is bernankecoin the way i see it.
21:36 gesell1 pitty, i could find no bernankecoin
21:36 assbot [HAVELOCK] [RENT] 443 @ 0.0055 = 2.4365 BTC
21:37 mircea_popescu kakobrekla the lawyer wants bitcoin fame. that's free to him, as he has no cases anyway.
21:37 mircea_popescu a noob lawyer with a shitty jd and no connection is basically equally qualified as a plumber.
21:37 kakobrekla so they are not really getting paid as you said but whoreing out
21:37 mircea_popescu and if he actually manages to get some dough from tibanne, all the better.
21:37 nubbins` gesell1, it's called bernankoin i think
21:37 nubbins` ;;google bernankoin
21:37 gribble [ANN] Bernankoin the Coin Not Evil according to Paul Krugman DL ...: <https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=375010.0>; Bernankoin Printer - The Bitcoin Master: <http://www.thebitcoinmaster.com/bernankoin/>; Please add Bernankoin - BEK : Tickets - Cryptsy.com Forums: <https://cryptsy.freshdesk.com/support/discussions/topics/46514>
21:37 mircea_popescu not like his "clients" will see any of it.
21:38 mircea_popescu judging by the school he went to, he's being supported by either generous parents or generous husband.
21:38 mircea_popescu so it all makes sense.
21:39 BingoBoingo I dunno of any person in Illinois who while certified as a plummer and holding a JD would pratice law over practicing plumbing
21:39 gesell1 mircea_popescu: at the moment there appears to be only a few places to go. or only a few lawyers persuing the issue
21:39 BingoBoingo Plumbing just pays better than law
21:39 mircea_popescu gesell1 i wasn't saying you sohu;dn't, by any means
21:39 mircea_popescu just explaining how the thing works.
21:40 mircea_popescu anyway : their top claim to fame is that they settled an amazon cas for ~150k
21:40 mircea_popescu which went to charity.
21:40 mircea_popescu bush league does not begin to describe.
21:41 KRS-One I have a friend who is a roofer who makes as much as an attorney and then some.
21:41 nubbins` skilled trades, man
21:41 KRS-One he does the easy shit and runs a crew
21:41 mircea_popescu (they also represented the Blagojevich dood. also for free, also to no particular effect)
21:41 BingoBoingo I really don't understand the point of retaining an unconnected lawyer
21:41 nubbins` that said, his body will be wrecked by the time he's 45
21:41 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo you know blag ?
21:41 nubbins` and he'll be taking orders from a guy ten years his junior
21:41 moiety is it just me or does that lawyer dude look a wee bit like simon cowel?
21:41 gesell1 i assumed/hoped that the class action litigation that gets the most attention from the community will wind up with the most resources to devote to getting possible results
21:41 KRS-One nubbins` you aint kiddin..except he's the business owner
21:42 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: I'm the other end of the state.
21:42 BingoBoingo The feudalism end
21:42 KRS-One he is real dumb and needs me to get a roofing license (take exams and shit) said I can make $100K/yr without doing a thing just holding the license.
21:42 mircea_popescu gesell1 i think you grossly misrepresent the substance of the sort of clueless idiots that still; had btc on gox.
21:42 mircea_popescu it's hardly a community and it definitely has no resources.
21:42 nubbins` KRS-One, might as well.
21:43 KRS-One i have to speak to an attorney to see what kind of liability it opens me up to..supposedly i can do it with no risk or liability.
21:43 gesell1 mircea_popescu: there were $40m worth of BTC waiting on Gox on one reddit comment thread alone. that could create resources
21:43 mircea_popescu money you don't have does not create resources, no.
21:44 KRS-One nubbins`: he has been using his dad's general contractor's license but his dad is real old now and wont be doing it much longer
21:44 BingoBoingo KRS-One: In the US the only thing you can acquire with a license is risk and liability
21:44 KRS-One so bam this might be nice coin
21:44 KRS-One BingoBoingo: i know I am skeptical
21:45 mircea_popescu “Since we’ve been sitting here on the phone, I’ve seen three emails come in.”
21:45 mircea_popescu ahahah how epic is that.
21:45 KRS-One it nice to know a roofer..i got a new roof put on my house for real cheap, just labor and materials.
21:45 moiety this is why its good to know a mechanic too
21:45 KRS-One took forever to get him to do it tho
21:46 KRS-One moiety: yep. marine and diesel mechanics make most i think
21:46 KRS-One i was stupid. i went to college.
21:46 nubbins` i had my roof redone last summer
21:46 nubbins` wait, no, summer before
21:46 nubbins` fucking mansard roofs
21:46 nubbins` $$$$
21:47 BingoBoingo Well, the boring olf gasoline car mechanic that fixed the mess I made trying to fix that saturn made decent money for his time.
21:47 nubbins` "know what'd be a good idea? if none of this shit was right angles"
21:47 moiety i think my roof might fall off. i saw slates outside on the ground
21:47 mircea_popescu moiety maybe your roof buries some pets
21:48 BingoBoingo moiety: You and your fancy european roofs. Here shingles are made out of asphalt and cat litter
21:48 moiety lolololol
21:48 mircea_popescu my shingles are made of detcord and baby tears.
21:49 BingoBoingo lol
21:49 moiety I'm scared to see your homes....
21:49 BingoBoingo detsord would never work with the weather here.
21:50 nubbins` my home is quaint, but only because of the lack of detcord and kitty litter
21:50 moiety did you guys see the £150 house that gets rented out for milk?
21:51 BingoBoingo No, but I've considered buying a block of $200 houses in detroit and starting a farm
21:51 mircea_popescu moiety breast milk ?
21:51 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo well detcord would make your house move somewhere else then
21:52 KRS-One mircea_popescu: depending on the roof, the shingles arent what keeps the water out. main protection for a roof comes from the tar paper that covers the wood. shingles only keep the sun from runing the tar paper.
21:52 KRS-One if it werent for the sun and other things you dont even need shingles.
21:52 mircea_popescu KRS-One that may be generallky true, but i come from transylvania, which invented wood shingle roofing.
21:52 mircea_popescu allow me to show you :
21:52 moiety mircea_popescu: it doesn't specify.......
21:52 moiety http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2513154/Farmer-builds-house-just-150-using-materials-skips--current-tenant-pays-rent-MILK.html
21:52 BingoBoingo KRS-One: Most of the world operates on the assumption shingles move the water
21:52 KRS-One thats what i have, wood shingle..cedar. Its one of the best you can get.
21:53 KRS-One BingoBoingo yep
21:53 nubbins` BingoBoingo: you'd need to truck in soil

21:53 KRS-One the BEST ROOF: flat deck (gravel)
21:53 KRS-One wow nice

21:54 nubbins` sides are shingled
21:54 KRS-One i dont know what tar pitch is
21:54 KRS-One hnn
21:54 BingoBoingo Maybe I should get the next roof done in pitchblend!!!
21:55 nubbins` they use a flamethrower to melt coal tar all over it
21:55 moiety mircea_popescu: that's so cute. it just needs broadband and its perfect!
21:55 KRS-One ah yes flatdek?
21:55 KRS-One flat deck
21:55 nubbins` sandwiched with layers of tar paper
21:56 nubbins` prolly the same thing you're thinking of
21:56 KRS-One thats the best type of roof to have..many commercial buildings have that
21:56 nubbins` self-healing
21:56 KRS-One yea
21:56 nubbins` as long as you have any amount of summer
21:56 KRS-One i've heard horror stories where roofers fell off and into the hot kettle of tar
21:57 nubbins` popular for the row houses here, most of which have flat roofs
21:58 KRS-One a popular one here in Florida are concrete shingle..i did some roofing when i was younger..talk about hard work.
21:58 nubbins` looks nice tho
21:58 KRS-One gets so hot on the roof tops you can get burned by just picking up your hammer on the metal side
21:59 KRS-One you have to be a tough bastard to work in roofing year round..i think doing concrete work was actually easier.
21:59 KRS-One i did both for a while..they both sucked.
21:59 KRS-One those jobs were my main motivator for going to college.

John Anderson, Ross Perot, Ralph Nader-- they let them through to "show" third party candidates aren't any more serious than Howard Stern when he ran for governor. Poor Ron Paul pulls in more people than porn but he can't get a break, sorry buddy, 100 years too late for your kind. There's a difference between what you ne

22:29 mircea_popescu and one of the best indications that this is actually the correct approach would be that the impotent-by-design feminist movement will readily recognise it as the ultimate evil.

23:04 asciilifeform it brings in, ~50k / yr in eternal pentagon contract
23:04 mircea_popescu so it's worth like 600k
23:04 decimation sounds shady as hell to me
23:04 asciilifeform and is, in general, 'too much fun' of a technology to be turned loose

23:05 mircea_popescu yay!
23:05 mircea_popescu logs no longer suck! all hail kakobrekla, fixer of sucks.
23:05 asciilifeform the $5k circa 2010 - that's my old employer.
23:06 asciilifeform whom i talked into buying an actual copy of OG
23:06 asciilifeform came with dec alpha. for 'free'.
23:08 asciilifeform incidentally, the original mit lisp machine sources / schematics are bsd-licensed now.

23:10 decimation so reading your blog, it seems that MIT eventually went to Scheme to teach young EE's how to code microcontrollers
23:10 mircea_popescu yeah, ima go with nubbins`
23:10 asciilifeform decimation: you misread
23:10 asciilifeform they ditched it
23:10 asciilifeform a few years ago
23:11 asciilifeform it was an epic surrender to derp
23:11 decimation yeah I saw that, but presumably before that someone decided scheme was the way to go
23:11 asciilifeform sussman
23:11 asciilifeform the original author of scheme

23:12 nubbins` sorry man, king-size bed, only room for two ;)
23:12 decimation more evidence of the surrender of original thinking to academic bureaucracy
23:13 decimation I blame fiat

23:18 decimation you also inspired me to look more closely into Forth
