bitcoinpete: anything for a price ;)
RebeccaBitcoin: now you're talking
bitcoinpete: never heard about this shady past though
RebeccaBitcoin: I spent like 18 mins googling him
bitcoinpete: only thing i know of was satoshi circle iirc
bitcoinpete: sold it for 6 figures i think
RebeccaBitcoin: ya, which is kinda illegal gambling but that's hardly sahdy
RebeccaBitcoin: I was hoping for some sort of elaborate scam
bitcoinpete: it's called ethereum
RebeccaBitcoin: a previous elaborate scam
bitcoinpete: i'm sure mircea_popescu could recommend a private eye if you really must know ;)
bitcoinpete: mike_c: bitcoinpete is a pretty good bitcoin-assets marketer. << well don't mind if i do :D
RebeccaBitcoin: Now only if it wasn't so complicated to get on here
RebeccaBitcoin: make a username, choose a password, GPG gribble nonsense
RebeccaBitcoin: and then to make it worse, I have to do gribble every time I log on
Duffer1: it's training
Duffer1: valuable habits
RebeccaBitcoin: I'm like a pro at internet security
RebeccaBitcoin: I store my coins in a brain wallet
RebeccaBitcoin: becky'scoins
RebeccaBitcoin: it has a ' so that makes it more seure
Duffer1: i thought i was too, till i got attacked a couple weeks ago, read the logs
Duffer1: thoroghly compromised
bitcoinpete: Duffer1: but weren't you using windows ?
Duffer1: yea
Duffer1: i know i know
BingoBoingo: <bitcoinpete> Duffer1: but weren't you using windows ? << People can screw the pooch on Linux too
bitcoinpete: it's easier to skin your knees on a skateboard than in a car
RebeccaBitcoin: well said
Duffer1: they didn't get anything except a piece of pride :P
RebeccaBitcoin: because you had no coins or because you have them well secured
RebeccaBitcoin: That must be depressing for hackers. Hack into someone's computer, and they have no bitcoins.
Duffer1: offline purpose built laptop
RebeccaBitcoin: especially if they should have coins
Duffer1: i don't believe my comp was infilitrated, they attacked my services
RebeccaBitcoin: If someone makes a bot that steals coins from brain wallets
RebeccaBitcoin: is that unethical
Duffer1: to try to gain access to coinbase, which did have access to my bank account
RebeccaBitcoin: I assume coinbase has 2factor
Duffer1: yea
bitcoinpete: RebeccaBitcoin: is hacking ethical ?
bitcoinpete: sure it is
bitcoinpete: it's a necessary force
Duffer1: but the attacker knew my cell number / provider and tried to set up call forwarding for the coinbase 2fa token
Duffer1: anyways the point is, i learned a security mindset from b-a, gpg reinforced the habit
Duffer1: and the attacker is empty handed
RebeccaBitcoin: I'm back
RebeccaBitcoin: did I miss anything
RebeccaBitcoin: I'm guessing not
dub: there are logs
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 5959 @ 0.00081738 = 4.8708 BTC [+]
RebeccaBitcoin: ah I did miss something
RebeccaBitcoin: Duffer taught me that if I use windows, I have to regularly use GPG to protect myself
Duffer1: lol if you use any system you can still get owned if they know enough about you and get some tier one wanker to change an email pw
asciilifeform: Duffer1 keeps his root pw in his mailbox ?
RebeccaBitcoin: isn't that the safest place?
RebeccaBitcoin: root pw in your gmail
asciilifeform: 2nd only to one's arse
Duffer1: hehe ofc not
RebeccaBitcoin: Its always a good idea to have an email to yourself with the subject passwords
RebeccaBitcoin: put all your usernames and passwords in there
asciilifeform: the ones that set off the thermite.
RebeccaBitcoin: and make sure your passwords have some $ signs in them
RebeccaBitcoin: that makes them safer, especiailly if money is involved
dub: changing e to 3 makes passwords secure
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> the ones that set off the thermite. << lol
RebeccaBitcoin: good suggestion dub
RebeccaBitcoin: I'll change my brainwallet to b3cky'scoins
RebeccaBitcoin: also, one other pro tip: If you use google authenticator 2 factor, its always a good idea to save the QR code pic in your gmail with your passwords
RebeccaBitcoin: that way if you lose your phone when out clubbing or whatever, you can re-scan it

BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I am swiftly coming to the conclusion that the only undisputable fact is that Malaysia Airlines should probably be uninsurable by now.
asciilifeform: if wtc is insurable - what remains ?
RebeccaBitcoin: malaysian is probably pretty safe
RebeccaBitcoin: 2 crashes in a few months
RebeccaBitcoin: odds are there won't be a third
asciilifeform: who knows, perhaps insurers now believe, as some ww1 soldiers did, that 'shell doesn't ever drop into the old crater'
RebeccaBitcoin: the ukranian one doesn't appear to be entirely malaysian's fault
RebeccaBitcoin: sure they stupidly flew there
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> who knows, perhaps insurers now believe, as some ww1 soldiers did, that 'shell doesn't ever drop into the old crater' << Old crater is perfect target to shell if you can't see enemies outside of it.
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform like israelis who, during the intifada in the early 2000s, would pack the bar that was previously suicide bombed the second it re-opened

benkay: fuck all of my different clipboards
benkay: the os x one only has one slot as apparently a giant "fuck you" to anyone who's not a retard
benkay: oh also i was told today that calling things "stupid" is bad because some people identify as stupid and using stupid as a negative word makes them feel bad
benkay: so we started saying "poorly engineered" to which i object because i'm a crap engineer
benkay: came to the conclusion that until people start identifying as piles of feces, the only acceptable bad word is "shitty" and then i remembered this one girl...
benkay: also someone pointed out that shit is healthy and good and helps you diagnose your internal gut flora state

benkay: but "some"
benkay: "some" people might get offended

Blazedout419: not me BigBitz talking about rtings abuse and the WOT
mike_c: there is weighted points. it's gettrust
BigBitz: Blazedout419 look at my ratings.

Blazedout419: how 1 mad person can wreck a total score...and most are too dumb to notice it

ThickAsThieves: well 10 points from mp is not the same as from ninjashogun
ThickAsThieves: and that could be somewhat quantified

ThickAsThieves: one problem i have for my vision of a decentralized wot, is when i simulate it in my end, it turns into a sort of international passport system over time and could totally remove anonymity from so many areas of life, and well, is that what we really want?
ThickAsThieves: end=head
danielpbarron: the one potential problem I see happening with nanotube's WoT, is that a small majority can prevent a user from even giving ratings..
Blazedout419: that is an issue
danielpbarron: but that's something he can easily remove without changing how the WoT works

danielpbarron: anyway; the WoT isn't harmed by scammers or trolls; it harms nothing to let anyone give a rating
rithm: that's stupidiest thing i've ever heard come from this channel
rithm: and i've heard a lot of stupid shit
rithm: but letting joe schmoe leave ratings for people who've been around the block for x years is moronic
Blazedout419: agreed
danielpbarron: scammers aren't in my L1; I don't care what ratings they give..
danielpbarron: rithm, joe schmoe isn't in my L1.. what's the problem??
mike_c: rithm: but it's only harmful if 'total points' is a thing. joe schmoe isn't going to change thhe gettrust between you and others.
rithm: so this is a L1/L2 difference of opinions

danielpbarron: well, it sorta does make a difference at the moment, because nanotube won't let you even give a rating if your score goes negative (i think)
rithm: yes and it's -70 because of 7 shill accounts
rithm: and if that person made 7 more shill accounts
danielpbarron: well nanotube should make it so you can always give ratings, or maybe base it on an L2 thing like assbot does

ThickAsThieves: i dislike the extreme which becomes possible with a "better" wot

rithm: ha
ThickAsThieves: Say the WoT is decentralized, supports more fields of data, has full API for integration for things like logging in to facebook or visiting Italy. The stronger and more prevelant the WoT gets, the more likely it is to become a requirement

rithm: *pay-to-play
rithm: initially i was not
ThickAsThieves: pay to rate scammers?
ThickAsThieves: no thanks
rithm: pay a fee to enter
ThickAsThieves: so a coin
rithm: a token of some sort
danielpbarron: maybe require that all WoT users have a Bitcoin address associated that has a balance of X amount
ThickAsThieves: like namecoin wot
punkman: rithm, not enough people for that I think
rithm: probably not
punkman: unless you are into circlejerks
jurov: the solution is to not have one global wot for everything
ThickAsThieves: i'd donate money to a proper effort to make such things
rithm: right then we just devolve into some sort of ruling wot class
kakobrekla: but when bitcoin started, there werent enough people for that as well, just a circlejerk
rithm: i don't have a solution sorry
punkman: kakobrekla, so what if you had to pay $500 to download bitcoin.exe then?
rithm: no one downloads bitcoin.exe
kakobrekla: punkman 30 btc mpex entry fee was pocket change at some point.
ThickAsThieves: the only way to make it have a cost is to do it like namecoin
danielpbarron: you don't have to charge for entry to make it cost prohibitive for scammers; just require they associate with a Bitcoin address that has a positive balance; kinda like a proof-of-stake
ThickAsThieves: probly...
rithm: making it cost prohibitive to shill ratings is the key i think
rithm: back to identity verification
punkman: rithm, takes a lot of time to build up shill accounts as it is
ThickAsThieves: it needs to be more than entry fee
ThickAsThieves: must be recurring
artifexd: There was an anti-sockpuppet scheme that revolved around committing bitcoin for a certain amount of time. I'm having trouble finding the details right now.
rithm: does it punkman? because you used to be able to rate one with another
rithm: then i created 12 more with btc addresses
rithm: and rated all those
rithm: maybe i've just seen it done so much and all the exploits and loopholes are closed now
punkman: still need to get first account in nanotube's L2, then if you rate a dozen, you are kinda obvious
danielpbarron: well each account would need to have a unique address associated with it; you can't share an address between acounts.. that would defeat the purpose
rithm: this being in nano's L2 is new
rithm: or it is news to me
punkman: it's still perfectly possible, but scammers don't usually have long attention spans
Blazedout419: new users can not rate now unless they have a rating
artifexd: nanotube: Can you confirm that one has to be in your L2 in order to rate others?
BigBitz: No.
BigBitz: That's wrong.
rithm: i thought it was
BigBitz: You don't /have/ to be in nano L2 to rate.
BigBitz: You can STOP people by negrating if nano is in your L1 though.
rithm: if you are smart you can build your own shill rating army
Blazedout419: you have to have a rating to rate?
rithm: idk i'm just a poor pawn.
rithm: let the ops figure it out
danielpbarron: in order to build up such an army, you'd have to convince other users to rate them; otherwise they all get cut off with your main account
Blazedout419: if nano's L2 is negative you can not rate
rithm: oic
rithm: so if nanotube burns you
punkman: right "Only people who already have a trust rating in the system can rate other users. "
rithm: your rating privileges are revoked
rithm: that makes sense
danielpbarron: not just nanotube; if anyone in his L2 burns you
rithm: +1
Blazedout419: correct
rithm: good solution to a problem
danielpbarron: err, L1*
Blazedout419: his L1 users hurt if they neg you
rithm: his L1 is pretty tight tho iirc
danielpbarron: idk, it has Blazedout419 in it :p

mike_c: and account_id is a pgp public key
mircea_popescu: jurov this could work. you publish the list once a month on your blog, as mike describes, then i verify the totals.
mircea_popescu: no charge.

mircea_popescu: it is GOOD that existent users can make new users unable to become users. this is the bitcoin implementation of slavery.
mircea_popescu: and slavery is right and proper. if you're not into the wot, that is at your peril, and at great cost to you.

artifexd: fluffypony: Sometimes I wonder if you are actually a small script that looks like "echo reddit.com"
fluffypony: hah hah
fluffypony: danielpbarron: I don't disagree with genericpersona, those ratings are far from the biggest threat to the WoT
mircea_popescu: mike_c srsly, think about it. if his score implies a 40% probability people you know know him and yet nobody does.. isn;'t that informative ?
fluffypony: and even though the WoT itself isn't quantitative, it doesn't mean that ratings can't have quantitatively reflect the value of dealings
mircea_popescu: "how did you manage a total score of 5000 while nobody of the 300 people i know ever dealt with you ?"
mike_c: ah, i see.
mircea_popescu: fluffypony the new orthodoxy being that ratings reflect the quality of your knowledge of the person. not the deal.
assbot: What the WoT is for, how it works and how to use it. pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: my knowledge of a person could be limited to a single trade
mircea_popescu: it could yes. but it doesn't have to be.
fluffypony: I "know" nothing about them beyond that
fluffypony: so now I should not rate them?
mircea_popescu: maybe i know everything i need to know about a girl from seeing her tits online. that's a solid 10.
mircea_popescu: maybe i trade 5k btc a week with someone and i can't go past 1.
fluffypony: but it's still qualitative
mircea_popescu: yes, no argument there.
fluffypony: I'd expect that someone that wants to deal with them will come talk to me and say "I see you did a $100 trade with rg...is he trustworthy?"
mircea_popescu: but of a meta-question. you're basically scoring yourself. "hopw likely am i to be able to answer someones' q's about this guyu"
fluffypony: and I'll be like "he was fine at the time, but he's gone south since then."
mircea_popescu: that's the big point there. your rating quantity is not about them at all. it's about you. you're describing yourself, as a repository of knowledge.
mircea_popescu: so it's at least in principle and often practically difficult for a third party to dispute your ratings as appropriate or inappropriate.
fluffypony: so a much bigger threat to the WoT than a rating that reflects the trade is that few of us actually go and talk to the people raters to get a feel for the person we're about to deal with
mircea_popescu: rithm: no one will document that and take it seriously << a) no you can't and b) i seem to recall footage of hruschev with his shoe.
mircea_popescu: so your argument fails on both ends.
artifexd: And the positive or negative of the rating is an indication of whether you have negative or positive information?
mircea_popescu: fluffypony some of us are supposedly very good at reading people.
artifexd: Kinda like reading the negative reviews on Amazon first
mircea_popescu: artifexd basically.
fluffypony: jawohl
mircea_popescu: the wot would really work just as good as a balnced ternary sistem really.
mircea_popescu: mike_c: rithm: but it's only harmful if 'total points' is a thing. joe schmoe isn't going to change thhe gettrust between you and others. <<< if the wot db ends up larger than ten blockchains it may become a problem to host.
rithm: right but i still won't rate someone who i've not a) traded with or b) stalked because i have no knowledge of that person
rithm: rating someone because they look cool or seems smart is fruitless
rithm: and dangerous
mircea_popescu: well, how the fuck would i know ? maybe that's hoiw your magic works.
mircea_popescu: i won't presume to interfere in experts manner and expertise.
rithm: why can't i have a 5 for luke-jr

rithm: apeshit crazy on one hand. moral compass and won't steal on the other

midnightmagic: the statement of a trust factor is the person making the judgement. if the WoT is dual, then the person would conceivably be forced to make more than one update, so the win would be externalizing the cost in terms of time onto the end-users. a second WoT would be useful in the event that the trust statements were of non-overlapping domains, such as trading confidence vs. (say) physics capability. "I trust this guy to correctly
midnightmagic: work out awesome physics problems." "I don't trust this guy to trade bitcoins with, he keeps stealing meat off my BBQ when I'm not looking." Or better yet, more narrowly, "I trust this guy, but I don't trust his ability to evaluate other peoples' trust."

moiety: I have some other voice things to do
thick_as_thieves: depends on budget
thick_as_thieves: the default is probly and SM7b
thick_as_thieves: but thats $350 or so and you then need a preamp
thick_as_thieves: your voice though, could get away with a SM57 just fine i bet
moiety: christ i didn't know they would be that much
thick_as_thieves: SM57 would be $100
moiety: oh thats fine tho
thick_as_thieves: still need a preamp though
thick_as_thieves: do you have one?
thick_as_thieves: something to give phantom power
moiety: i have no idea what it is, so i doubt it

BingoBoingo: parellel construction seems likely for anything police in the US do these days
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: the parallel construction in the case of your local doughnut eater is largely 'automatic' - i.e., they get 'anonymous tip' and proceed via traditional means
BingoBoingo: Ah, yeah. 'anonymous tip' prolly belongs in scare quotes from now on.

thick_as_thieves: I hadnt seen enky's latest post yet, but i too am having some concerns about current demand
thick_as_thieves: however, the USMS should have news about the SR auction in a week or two, which could spark something
mircea_popescu: ;;tell genericpersona that's not your call to make. now stop dicking around while you still have a dick to dick around with.
thick_as_thieves: who is genericpersona?
thick_as_thieves: someon ei hav eignored?

mircea_popescu: people from tennessee imagining beijing is a suburb of chattanooga.
HeySteve: thick_as_thieves, we got pretty far. forked NMC and had a blockchain running you could use to add and retrieve public keys and other details like name, email, business, etc.
HeySteve: my dev in thailand has dropped off the radar lately tho
HeySteve: I had the idea but know next to nothing about code so he was doing the heavy lifting there

assbot: Justice for Paige Striker - raped at 14!
dub: tribal neck tattoos, edgy
mircea_popescu: dub they don't really pay for extras in these shoots.
mircea_popescu: basically just pick up w/e the cats are dragging in the street.
mircea_popescu: Long story short - I hired Shawn and Pixeldust Marketing late in 2013 to redesign our web site https://www.pinnaclecredit.com/ (note: his design was junk and we did not use it) Shawn started a relationship with our 14 year old daughter Paige behind our back. We found out Jan 2014 she had gotten pregnant by Shawn and had an abortion! Shawn is in his 30s!
mircea_popescu: ok that's just good dirt.
mircea_popescu: who is this dood.
assbot: Login

mircea_popescu: pcp is more of a cop/courthouse legend from the 80s
assbot: Scammer - Martin Lawrence - St. Albert - Alberta, Canada
mircea_popescu: not a hippy or someone that backs down. well...
asciilifeform: legend, afaik, is based on the 'feature' of it being anaesthetic without any soporific effect - so user could indeed use 'great strength' at the cost of tearing muscles.
asciilifeform hasn't tried, can't confirm
BingoBoingo: PCP is a dissociative anesthetic similar to ketamine, but with less effect on the ability to move skeletal muscles
asciilifeform was once offered ~1k usd by employer to take ketamine, somehow never got around to it
asciilifeform: (usg trials. for some reason, just about all the tear-off tabs on the 'volunteers needed' ad - stayed attached. one can infer that most people want > 1k usd for this.)
asciilifeform: recently saw the very same ad on uni. campus. apparently they're still testing.
mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> PCP is a dissociative anesthetic similar to ketamine, but with less effect on the ability to move skeletal muscles << exactly so.
mircea_popescu: you don't hear reports about keto hipsters throwing fire trucks at airplanes.
mircea_popescu: or w/e bs.
BingoBoingo: Because deep in the k-hole you can't fire signals to move around. That deep in PCP that body runs blind
asciilifeform: in the actual police documents, the plausible data - suspect requiring a few more doughnut eaters than usual to subdue
BingoBoingo: Basically in the PCP hole, body can't report pain/sensory data to the brain and brain can't impose coherent order upon the body.
HeySteve: just downloaded DAZ studio and experimenting

BingoBoingo: mike_c: How is forum lyfe?
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> gentlemen, wtf with the underscores ? // my handle's been outdated by reality for a long time now.
mike_c: quiet. i wasn't sure what to expect, but so far it has been indifference. i didn't post at a great time, late at night. thinking about getting some people to bump it. not sure what to do yet.
asciilifeform assumed ben_vulpes is actually named 'ben fox' when first saw
mircea_popescu: mike_c's fate, to linger between indifference and insanity.
mike_c: i looked at the price for advertising and was shocked. 1 slot (which is 1/8 of impressions) for 1 week is going for ~3 btc
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's a point of great wonder, the man not only had the means to find a girl actually named fox after her father, but sense enough to switch names.
mircea_popescu: mike_c yes, for as long as it lasts milking the scampit is lucrative.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: lit. "son of the fox" - albeit pidgin hebrew
ben_vulpes: (/aramaic)

ben_vulpes vomits

mike_c: that is 1 slot (1/8 of total)

BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu> you have got to be kidding me, 400k impressions a day is ludicrous. trilema does more than the tardstalk ?! << tardstalk has prolly already bored all the spooks

asciilifeform: it was ~1/min before it started to live in the #b-a log.
mircea_popescu: mike_c about a degree of magnitude too much, but hey.
asciilifeform: (i also see quite a few 'trilema' headers)
mike_c: well, you figure 0.1% ctr? so you pay $1 per click
mike_c: probably worth it for bitmain
mircea_popescu: mike_c like for neobee.
mike_c: bitmain isn't scammer afaik. that's antminer, right? they deliver.
mircea_popescu: it's not worth it for any of them, just, they don';t have the option not to do it. if they don't do it they don;t exist. so gotta do it.
BingoBoingo: Well isn't bitmain the people actually delivering asics now?
mircea_popescu: mike_c well one doesn't have to be a scammer for the roi to not be there.

mike_c: wait, what percentage is work?
mircea_popescu: what is work ?

mircea_popescu: he's someone's something, which also neatly explains why they put one of the few dea agents with a functioning brain on the case, and spent so much time and effort on it.
mircea_popescu: now whose what... meh, i dun gas.
mircea_popescu: justusranvier my idea at least is that an atm is the most fucktarded idea one could come up with.
mircea_popescu: specifically : an atm requires a fortress. we have not yet built the fortress. when we do, you will know we have, because i will kidnap a number of "world leaders" wives and daughters to be publicly raped there as to make the fucking point that in fact it IS a fortress.
mircea_popescu: on the other hand, an atm is addressed to and aims to serve the public. bitcoin does not.
mircea_popescu: so for these considerations, it makes about as much sense to talk of bitcoin atms as it makes sense to talk of using wet matches to shoot down Mars.
the20year1: bitcoin doesn't serve the public?
mircea_popescu: the20year1 only incidentally. but principally , bitcoin serves the elite.
