pyc: hey! I am a lurker who learnt about this channel by another member of this channel during a discussion at #lispx
pyc: quite fond of small channels like these with small communities
shinohai: Heya pyc ... logs for chan are available in topic. Conversations start up sporadically, but logs should give you idea.
pyc: yes, saw the logs. I will just lurk around here for sometime. if there are more such tiny channels let me know. will try them out.
shinohai: will do m8

shinohai: Any nyooz on tbf ?
asciilifeform: shinohai: not afaik
asciilifeform: !q seen-anywhere jurov
snsabot: jurov last seen in #asciilifeform on 2021-01-19 18:07:40: it means you don't write in expressions there, but evaluate them from the other files
verisimilitude: Hello, pyc.
shinohai: $vwap

trinque: ^ that must be why some guy showed up today asking about whether he had a deedbot balance from... 2014?
trinque: asciilifeform: was punkman running a wallet back then or something?
trinque: because I certainly wasn't.
asciilifeform: trinque: dafuq!
asciilifeform: trinque: earliest, afaik, attempt at a deedbot-wallet. indeed circa '14. iirc didn't actually work, in the adult sense of the word, tho.
snsabot: (trilema) 2014-09-27 deedBot: deedBot BTC available balance: 0.00140000 in wallet 1NTSD9jVvumurTotaW7Crqe5DfRxBrJzqu
asciilifeform historically thought that lamers 'scrape in sofa cushions' for coins only when the decimal point moves...
shinohai: Hey if anyone at all wants to send couch lint worth 0.0014 to *my* addy, feel free :D
verisimilitude: I should make an address already. I've asked before, but what have those here used for such?
asciilifeform: verisimilitude: trb.
verisimilitude: Alright.
asciilifeform: shinohai: i regularly get such 'dust' in donation addr.
asciilifeform: verisimilitude: lemme know if you intend to build a noad; i've a fairly complete snapshot of the chain avail. (to l1 strictly) for download. will save you a month or two (supposing you're in a hurry. if yer not -- better to sync the traditional way)
asciilifeform: it's a 300GB tarball, but you can in fact download it at a coupla MB/s, rather than the effective coupla kB/s of trb's 'i'ma sync and then wander off into nirvana for a week and then maybe sync some moar'
asciilifeform bbl
shinohai: asciilifeform: Mine sat dormat since 2016, then suddenly this year gets 2 dust tx's. Have no idea who sent.
verisimilitude: I've no intention to build a node, but merely an address, perhaps.
verisimilitude: I appreciate the offer.
verisimilitude: I read the whitepaper, but still know very little about Bitcoin.
verisimilitude: Due to transaction fees, it's not practical to test an address by sending one satoshi back and forth, is it?
shinohai: verisimilitude: nah.
trinque: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-02-18#1031778 << figured as much

verisimilitude: Money is like time; it's easier to ignore it.
verisimilitude: That may be true of everything, however.
verisimilitude: It's especially true about time, though.
