09:36 mike_c ping jurov
09:37 mike_c have you ever thought about adding the ability to short mpex stocks to coinbr? seems like it would be a great service for you as a brokerage.
09:38 mike_c let people lend shares at an interest rate, and let others borrow (with btc collateral) to short.
09:41 thestringpuller mike_c dunno if there is enough volume for that
09:43 mike_c it is grease for the wheels.
09:45 mike_c like right now, s.bbet has a big bid/ask spread. but it can be tough to market-make a stock if you can't borrow shares to sell.
09:45 mike_c and obviously there is plenty of s.mpoe volume
09:45 mike_c and volatility
09:47 thestringpuller volume was a bad word
09:47 thestringpuller i dunno if there is enough inventory
09:47 thestringpuller volume was completely the wrong word
09:48 mike_c you're going to have to use more words :) I don't follow your concern.
09:50 thestringpuller i don't know if the conglemorate of coinbr users have the inventory of stock necessary to lend.
09:57 mike_c yes, but coinbr would now be offering interest on passive stock holdings. so perhaps it would pick up new types of customers.

14:44 gribble You have not yet rated user grubles
14:46 mircea_popescu ;;rate grubles -1 Disingenuous at best. One of the large group of everyday nitwits that wandered into Bitcoin early on enough so as to end up with a much larger momentary fortune than their limited brainpower could support. After squandering it through the usual means, they prefer to pretend their funciar stupidity is someone else's fault.
14:46 gribble Rating entry successful. Your rating of -1 for user grubles has been recorded.
14:47 mircea_popescu re the entire grubles/bitvps thing : the listing was discussed for a while, in a public channel. grubles was there, and not only represented himself in agreement, but represented rg as the owner of the thing.
14:47 mircea_popescu for that matter, the contract has a specific clause, 3(a)That no third party has offered verifiable proof as to the inaccuracy or incompleteness of the representations and warranties made herein and that no market makers, preferred traders and other significant investors of MPEx have publicly proffered doubt as to the accuracy or completeness of the representations and warranties made herein ;
14:48 mircea_popescu he never availed himself of it, and that is exactly enough for constructive tacit agreement, just as good as if he swore to the whole thing.
14:48 mircea_popescu for that matter, the guy didn't protest at any point while rg was still running the thing, nor did he stand up to take over once rg fucked it up.
14:54 mircea_popescu there was about a month there while namworld was struggling to salvage the thing. which meanwhile i think died again or what is it these days ?
14:56 thestringpuller oh look it's a popescu!

14:58 thestringpuller How is your vacation going?
14:58 mircea_popescu pretty fun!
14:58 thestringpuller warmer than the n hemisphere i hope ;)
14:59 thestringpuller not that you'd need warmth with that harem of yours ;)
14:59 mircea_popescu do you realise i've been pretty much here, and on -otc before that, almost every day for like three years straight ?
14:59 mircea_popescu nuts if you say it outloud.
14:59 thestringpuller Well you do have highest word count for good reasons!
15:00 thestringpuller so I work for the marketing department here as a developer.
15:00 thestringpuller in one of the meetings I almost went "marketing is rape"
15:00 thestringpuller and was about to start quoting trilema
15:01 mircea_popescu o.O
15:03 thestringpuller haha! I have no idea why we spend so much on marketing. These designers are wasting their precious time.
15:03 mircea_popescu well just don't get arrested over freedom of speech lol
15:05 joecool heh return of rg to irc seems to be causing arguments in all the bitcoin-* channels
15:06 kakobrekla but he doesnt own his key anymore?
15:07 joecool kakobrekla: i thought that was just a rumor, for months everyone thought he sold his forum login too, yet he claims not since he came back to irc
15:08 kakobrekla dik.
15:09 mircea_popescu joecool was a fact back then.
15:09 mircea_popescu these things don't change over time i dun think.
15:09 joecool no i wouldn't expect that to change over time if true

15:23 cornfeedhobo that is certainly what i have always thought
15:23 cornfeedhobo indeed
15:23 cornfeedhobo and cry about not getting it back. lol
15:24 mircea_popescu jborkl: What was the rate, 7% per day? Or week << per week
15:24 mircea_popescu but he had an insider deal where he paid the various captains of industry more so they got the idea to resell.
15:24 mircea_popescu joecool when was this ?
15:25 joecool mircea_popescu: about a year or so ago
15:25 mircea_popescu after my time.
15:26 jborkl sweet action, 7% per week... seems so realistic
15:26 thestringpuller cornfeedhobo: danieldaniel is a weird kid.
15:26 mircea_popescu at the time, bitcoin was a few dollars and basically nobody gave much of a shit.
15:26 thestringpuller he's trustworthy tho, or at least was.
15:26 mircea_popescu eventually people started caring and it got crushed into the dirt, but for a year or so all sorts of bugs got to dance on the tools an' pretend.
15:27 thestringpuller I think he spends too much time in front of a computer and not enough time sleeping with girls.
15:27 jborkl yeah, the weekend btcst went bust it dropped to $8
15:28 mircea_popescu it was oscilating aroudn there, at some point prior the pirate muppet was "going to ruin the price" while it went from low 6s to 7s.

15:41 mircea_popescu what's so offensive about it ? you had a chance to be like intelligent and prove the common man should have a voice.
15:41 mircea_popescu you used it to prove the common man belongs silent.

15:58 thestringpuller mircea_popescu: well just don't get arrested over freedom of speech lol << speech isn't really a freedom at that point is it?
15:58 mircea_popescu quite.
15:59 mircea_popescu i wonder how many people noticed the subtle change from freedom of speech to an alleged "right" of free speech.
15:59 thestringpuller http://www.livingstondaily.com/story/news/local/community/brighton/2014/12/21/cursing-teen-mill-pond-ignites-debate-freedom-speech/20745957/ << this guy
15:59 mircea_popescu the difference between rights and freedoms being essentially the difference between pearl necklaces and dog collars.
15:59 mircea_popescu thestringpuller not bad.
16:00 mircea_popescu in any case : a freedom is something the people have, and the state can't take away. the rights are constructions that the state gives, and so the state can take away.
16:00 mircea_popescu trading a freedom for a right is always a bad deal.
16:01 mircea_popescu and it's what generally happens whenever a state claims to be "protecting rights". it's not protecting anything, it's stealing freedom and issuing in its place token "rights". which, much like its paper currency, are fiat worthlessness.

16:10 mike_c it was more meant as a rebuttal to his comment. people who have nothing to contribute type in here often :) he was a glaring example.
16:11 mike_c btw kakobrekla, i was thinking possible an easy solution to the whole problem of "negrated person won't leave" might be another command. like !recheck Anduck. then if his l2 is no good assbot boots him.
16:11 mircea_popescu the link actually is to his previous bout of derping here
16:11 mike_c it has been an issue at least once before
16:12 mircea_popescu mike_c what's the delay currently, like 15 minutes ?
16:12 mike_c i believe it's infinite
16:12 mircea_popescu people still can /ignore for that short interval, what's teh big deal
16:12 mike_c until the person parts
16:12 thestringpuller mike_c: there will always be netsplits
16:12 mircea_popescu nah, !down works once l2 trust is <1
16:12 kakobrekla well, the delay is the duration of his connection, which isnt too bad considering this is freenode.
16:13 mike_c no, !down doesn't work once l2 trust is <1

16:14 kakobrekla if you up yourself, nobody can down you for the session.
16:14 kakobrekla the trust is checked on up only.
16:15 mircea_popescu would it be hard to check on !down too ?
16:15 mircea_popescu leaving a loophole there deliberately where someone with >1 l1 and 0 l2 can still voice themselves
16:16 mircea_popescu but can also be devoiced whenever
16:16 mircea_popescu then we can count how often this happens to de-l1 people.
16:17 kakobrekla no the 'problem' is that if gribble hops and you reup you will be able to down everyone who has not reupped or some shit like that
16:17 mircea_popescu is this a notable problem ?
16:17 joecool gribble nor fleanode are exactly reliable
16:18 mircea_popescu i mean, suppose you do that. so ? people can just reup outside of your control, all you achieve is piss off the wot list.
16:18 mircea_popescu which... why ?
16:18 mike_c yeah, that would likely only happen once.
16:19 kakobrekla ill see what i can do.
16:19 mircea_popescu i like when he says that.
16:20 mircea_popescu usually it ends up a little later with "here's the thing we were talking about, except i built it inside a submarine just in case. and here's some beer i brewed and by the way, do you know candi and brandi ? they're twins."

17:01 cazalla do good volume? butterfly knives seem ideal means to go from fiat -> steam -> butterfly knife -> rmt -> bitcoin
17:01 cazalla then flip it to someone who wants the knife for bitcoin, making a small btc profit
17:02 austeritysucks eh its okay, hard to get people to reject paypal and go with btc
17:02 austeritysucks paypal is horrible for digital goods though so it's a natural fit, just hard to get the community to adopt it
17:02 cazalla yeah, get scammers offering to buy weapons using paypal all the time
17:03 cazalla bitcoin is such a good fit for this
17:03 austeritysucks im working on a btc/csgokey exchange
17:03 austeritysucks since keys are used as the fixed currency to trade
17:04 cazalla by cheaters and smurfs perhaps
17:04 austeritysucks hm?
17:04 austeritysucks its just that keys are used in the trade window, so they're the best "currency" to be used in trading higher value items
17:04 cazalla ah soz, i was thinking cd keys not key keys
17:04 austeritysucks to avoid 15% steamtax
17:05 cazalla i think maybe you will see more of bitcoin in that as time goes on
17:05 austeritysucks yea so my idea was instead of recreating the steam community market for bitcoin, just narrowing down to the keys would be simple to implement
17:06 austeritysucks so people could buy keys for below store price in BTC and safely cash out their inventory to real cash by selling items for keys and selling keys on exchange
17:07 cazalla dunno why uptake is so slow by gamers, i'd have killed for something like this back in everquest
17:09 austeritysucks yea a charge-back free payment system is natural, but you see the typical excuses from people who refuse to adapt
17:10 austeritysucks unfortunately credit cards all have chargeback, and until people can acquire bitcoins with creditcards at point of sale to remove the buyer from the "confusion" of the payment mechanism
17:10 austeritysucks then there is this learning curve that nobody wants to climb
17:11 cazalla give it time, it'll come i think
17:11 austeritysucks there needs to be a reverse-bitpay :P
17:11 austeritysucks but because of how credit cards work its really impossible to do it
17:11 austeritysucks which is exactly how the monopolists want it
17:13 cazalla i'm sure there are some kids who during bored summer holidays will figure out how to get bitcoin and buy/sell habbo items and shit like that
17:13 cazalla so credit card issue isn't really a big one or steam monopoly etc
17:14 austeritysucks no its the visa/mastercard monopoly
17:14 austeritysucks a btc exchange for csgo keys is definitely doable
17:14 austeritysucks but so many people will avoid using it because they can't acquire btc without bank transfer etc
17:14 cazalla i don't follow, how does that bother me if i already have bitcoin and i want to buy/sell butterfly knives?
17:14 punkman austeritysucks: https://www.payza.com/ this lets you receive CC payments and withdraw BTC, don't know anyone that uses them though
17:14 assbot Payza | Send Money, Receive Payment, Money Transfer, Shop & Sell Online ... ( http://bit.ly/1CxBX02 )
17:15 cazalla pretty easy to purchase small amount of btc now austeritysucks
17:15 austeritysucks cazalla, the majority of people prefer paypal over bitcoin in the community unfortuantely, so the big issue is getting people to adopt bitcoin, i was suggesting that an easy way to promote adoption is to get people to be removed from the btc payment mechanism and have a userfirendl front end that is like using CC, but behind the scenes iti s buying BTC, transferring BTC (and maybe even
17:15 austeritysucks BTC->fiat again for the seller)
17:15 punkman yeah Circle works in a lot of countries
17:16 austeritysucks cazalla, not with the way most people make such payments (cc)
17:16 austeritysucks the minute there is any place that allows for simple cc buy of btc you will have lots of stolen cc's using the service to get btc
17:16 punkman Circle is that place
17:17 cazalla but that is not the buyer's problem
17:17 cazalla i don't really give two shits if circle gets carded to death, i can buy with my own cc in the meantime
17:18 austeritysucks punkman, is it a secret place? i google circle btc and get nothing
17:18 austeritysucks oh nevermind i typo'd sorry

17:19 punkman l33t security
17:19 austeritysucks hm
17:19 austeritysucks well ill look into it
17:20 austeritysucks but for now i want to get the steam bot C# code working and then the front-end listings/btc purchase php stuff
17:21 austeritysucks because i think if at least the key:btc exchange works with 1 steam bot then it will be easy to expand nad once expanded people will adopt BTC for the purpose of being able to cahs out to real money so drama-free
17:21 cazalla maybe think a little further down the road and think of people wanting to cash out items to bitcoin instead of cash
17:22 cazalla because that's is where that market will move anyway
17:22 austeritysucks but i try my best to encourage people, set them up a hotwallet, shoot them $1 in btc or something ,and get their lips wet
17:22 austeritysucks cazalla, yes that is what the focus is
17:22 austeritysucks cazalla, and theres already many options for ppl to go btc to cash, that's not my concern.
17:22 austeritysucks my concern was people going cash to BTC
17:22 austeritysucks to use the exchange at all
17:23 cazalla well, as punkman said, circle.. refer your customers there to get btc instead of paypal

21:59 BingoBoingo Stirring shit up with North Korea is a natural move for the United States, because it distracts from the United States surrendering to Cuba to end that battle of the cold war.

22:00 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: reading from only the official material, that is precisely the kind of 'attack' involved.

22:02 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: actual exploit in the sense that no cooperation is needed from the luser
22:02 decimation that's the midget that the usg has squashed by sitting on the computer industry stool
22:03 decimation the fbi claims it was an email attachment that dropped some scanners that guess passwords to smb shares
22:03 asciilifeform decimation: this is about as thinkable to present-day academics - and turdware industrialist peddlers alike - as galois theory was to the romans

22:14 BingoBoingo decimation: Nothing wrong with Nation State actors working to keep tabs on Nation State actors.
22:14 joecool i like my Z10 tbh, only thing i'd improve is better battery life, i'm a bit concerned by some of the new "features" coming down in 10.3.x releases
22:14 decimation one gets the picture that usg 'leaders' think of themselves as being above such trivialities as secure communications
22:15 BingoBoingo joecool: When BBOS 7 seemed doomed I just went flipphone
22:16 joecool oh see i hated BBOS7, i came from the harmattan/maemo background prior
22:16 joecool tried a couple crapdroid landmines, universally disappointed
22:17 BingoBoingo joecool: Ah, before I did BBOS 7 I was on Symbian whatever and then Android.
22:17 joecool the whole style of UX on BB10 is very similar to the nokia n9's harmattan
22:17 joecool otherwise i never would have considered blackberry, it's a shame they have a worthless marketing division
22:18 decimation there there is this episode: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-26079957

They are different phones. They are cumbersome," said Weatherford, now a

22:21 decimation "GPG is too hard, no one will use it"
22:24 BingoBoingo joecool: I don't have problems with big UX changes. I care more about what is happening and why. Unsolder the microphone and camera in old blackberry, works as a pager like god intended. Unsolder camera and microphone in shitty LG android phone doesn't work as pager or play angry birds!
22:28 asciilifeform decimation: usg 'leaders' think of themselves as being above such trivialities as secure communications << of what concern is what a muppet says to another muppet ?
22:29 BingoBoingo Microphoneless smart Pnohe is the way to Pnohe, because BB pager recieves calls, records a message. To return calls you battery up a flip phone.
22:29 asciilifeform ukraine << so what. did even a single usg minion die from the intercepted phone ?
22:29 decimation the original blackberry actually took over an older 'pager-like' frequency allocation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DataTAC
22:29 assbot DataTAC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ... ( http://bit.ly/1vlUODH )
22:30 asciilifeform all that resulted was a leak, of facts which anglo media will never print - so it's almost as good, from their point of view, as 'never happened'
22:30 decimation asciilifeform: My point is that no one in the entire us media 'noticed' that the intercept (which was supposedly sophisticated) came from usg 'leaders' talking on unsecure lines
22:30 decimation one wonders how many billions were spent to deploy the secure facilities that they fail to use
22:30 asciilifeform because they (correctly!) believed that it simply does not matter.
22:31 asciilifeform the secure facilities (actual ones, vs. ordinary 'favourite son' golden toilet contracts) are used. by the folks who matter.
22:31 decimation as in, faceless meta-bureaucrats?

22:32 decimation asciilifeform: ah good point. you are saying the entire state dept. doesn't matter
22:32 * BingoBoingo wonders if soon after releasing Cardano, S.NSA will release a Maldardano sample tampered Cardano for people to practice searching for turditions on.
22:33 decimation actually usg would be much better off if it simply disbanded the department of state
22:33 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: fan of 'song of maldoror' ?
22:33 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Never heard it.
22:33 asciilifeform shame.
22:33 asciilifeform !s maldoror

22:33 BingoBoingo I guess I'll have to dearch nao
22:34 asciilifeform not essential.
22:36 asciilifeform decimation: department of state << try this gedankenexperiment. what could they possibly leak, that would have a measurable effect - with or without the cooperation of the state-controlled media
22:37 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Effective leak would be that reptillians exist and are in panic because of impending Avian threat.
22:37 decimation actually mr. assange already performed this experiment
22:37 asciilifeform lol, 'effective' ?
22:38 decimation the result was largely: bureaucrats who appear to be idiots in public also are in fact idiots in private

22:39 decimation asciilifeform: wrt the state department, anything important being discussed with us 'trade partners' is discussed by private parties conducting the trade
22:47 BingoBoingo It's interesting how in the US the title Secretary of State can alternately refer to the chief cocksucker at the Federal level and at the state level the chief Notarizing authority.
