dulapbot: Logged on 2022-04-25 23:54:15 asciilifeform: from one pov. tho observe that most blackmarket folx do not presently find bitcoin at all convenient, from their pov
signpost: no need to bracket 'em when using that format, only when adding link text.
thehorrors: got it
signpost: but anyway, yeah, I'm not interested in a world ruled by drug cartels, etc.
asciilifeform: asciilifeform's recipe ftr for 'how to make 'normal stuff' buyable w/ btc' .
dulapbot: Logged on 2022-01-14 19:57:24 asciilifeform: recommends his strategy -- of conducting biz in btc strictly to fill a hodl -- to others, but not under illusion that it is generally applicable
signpost: and would not want bitcoin changed in such a way that helps them, harms civilized business.
signpost: lately I've been working on a project to capture a self-hosting linux system as vpatches, so an analogy comes to mind.
signpost: consider the case of the GNU system, which was intended to be maximally viral into proprietary ones.
signpost: in service of this political goal, the GNU software was fractally shit-caked in a lovecraftian horror of compatibility layers.
signpost: early on, one would've stated the political goal in terms of freedom.
signpost: at this point, the shitwad is so complex only gigantic, billion dollar corporations control the projects.
signpost: hilariously the ones that were meant to be disempowered by "Free Software (TM)"
signpost: is this a failure, and if so why did the failure occur?
thehorrors: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2022-04-26#1099035 < right, but that thread seems to indicate that (1) you still cannot eat from it which is my problem. (2) the community is a huge part of a working system (my earlier point about education). Crypto-amish will definitely suffocate any system. The deal here is that raw-noncrypto amish in sufficient numbers will suffocate the system just as well.

thehorrors: signpost: so the "fits-in-the-head" currency is sort of what I am reading
thehorrors: the failure also occured in my view, because they didn't make money - simple as. And gnu introduced huge incentives to make commercial SaaS *all the while* having no mitigation agains SaaS. In my view it's a disaster
signpost: I don't mean that oss failed; it's everywhere.
signpost: it failed at its earlier stated political objective.
signpost: I traded the black box of microsoft for an ever-tangling thicket I could in principle, but not in practice, read and understand.
thehorrors: It's everywhere, but controlled by big corps, so the fact that it's everywhere doesn't really help me
signpost: right, I'm just emphasizing "failed on its own terms"
thehorrors: okay, but are you trying to say that the complexity is to blame?
signpost: I'm saying that a technological artefact is not separable from the political process that emitted it.
signpost: when designing a cryptocurrency these are part of the design.
signpost: that I want to read and understand both the src of the currency and its total state at all times is certainly helped by that model fitting in my head.
thehorrors: I am not sure I fully agree with you. I think there are feedback loops and the clusterfuck that we witness is ultimately emergent. Okay, suppose a crypto client fits in your head. Still, the only people who can operate upon it meaningfully will be people proficient in software - to the point where they can actually appreciate the simplicity and more importantly - uphold it.
signpost: so what? I'm telling you what I want, and I did read it.
signpost: I ask that my doctor know things I do not also, and rely on him for that.
signpost: is there an implied "normies must the buttcorn" in here?
signpost: if so why.
thehorrors: sort of. The same simplicity will invite "normies" who will hack it into oblovion
signpost: game theory of the protocol seems to have rejected all such attempts.
thehorrors: and will make it easier to hijack for corporations as well. Because if you have a codebase that only two people can contribute to, they can safely tell everyone to fuck off
signpost: heh, what is this, security by wall of autism?
signpost: I don't think that's what's securing the chain.
thehorrors: if you have something simple, you will have CoC forks after the first sneeze. CoC forks immediately get "sponsored" and marketed, grow out of proportion with features and shiny. Normies will buy that, the original will be left to the people "who get it". The cycle will repeat, with five people using lynx and the rest using firefox.
billymg: thehorrors: the importance of the prb shithub account is overblown. they can do what they want over there and hodlers are free to continue running older versions of bitcoin, such as trb for example
signpost: thing's worth like 1T already, hardly lynx.
billymg: http://logs.bitdash.io/asciilifeform/2022-04-26#1099019 << black market to me just means normal trade between free agents without having to cc nancy pelosi on all transactions > $600. iow 'black market' includes food and clothes
bitbot: Logged on 2022-04-26 03:56:26 thehorrors: I also think the black market itself is part of the problem. Folks should trade food and clothes for bitcoin for it to make effect
signpost: and yes, the original consensus rules still work fine, despite all attempts to render it otherwise.
billymg: http://logs.bitdash.io/asciilifeform/2022-04-26#1099045 << the only thing with bitcoin that the reich works harder to suppress than the exchange rate is the emergence of true p2p markets

dulapbot: Logged on 2022-01-19 13:03:00 asciilifeform: the reason why various 2010s 'they'll ban goxes!' prognoses (incl. asciilifeform's) came to nuffin, is that turns out goxes are a very effective instrument of exchrate control, and therefore quite valuable to the reich.
dulapbot: Logged on 2022-01-25 14:19:31 asciilifeform: is half of why reich even tolerates goxes -- to put brakes on the development of proper wotronic trade.

signpost: this definitely *should* also call into question the use of ECDSA in bitcoin.
thehorrors: billymg: okay, agreed, but why is there no food and clothes on the black market? Can I buy a sack of potatoes for bitcoin from a peer? Why is there a trillion market cap and I cannot do dick with my coins except buying some hosting offshore maybe?
signpost: grocer typically doesn't accept gold bars either.
thehorrors: so then bitcoin is not currency
signpost: I see nowhere on earth that bitcoin is currently being used as common currency.
thehorrors: right, but that's exactly my problem
signpost: please state the problem. how are you going to fight the state by buying your latte with btc?
thehorrors: because I won't pay taxes doing that
signpost: the thing will literally just come murder you and take what is valuable of yours long before mass tax protest is a tickle in anyone's nutsack.
thehorrors: how are you going to fight the state by hodling?
signpost: did the invention of the internet fight the state?
thehorrors: right which makes it more attractive to me to have an encrypted ledger
thehorrors: in a way - for sure
signpost: you're hoping for a great awakening in the religious sense, and flavoring it with crypto.
thehorrors: in other ways it helped the state as well (being its own invention)
signpost: no need, normies can go throw themselves atop the gears today.
thehorrors: Well I hope for the great awakening irrespective of crypto
signpost: re: internet consider whether the chinese model would even be possible without it.
signpost: current chinese surveillance megastate.
thehorrors: yeah, but would snowden be possible without it?
thehorrors: chicken and egg I get it
signpost: whether hope pans out or not, saying the existence of a particular technology does not by itself make the thing happen.
thehorrors: well I said I don't consider the two connected
signpost: silk road happened, yet no great psychedelic awakening, etc.
thehorrors: great awakening is one thing, crypto is another thing. Partially we need crypto as a sort of substitute of the enlightement in hopes that it will enable it
signpost: your way of trying to partition the world is nonsense.
signpost: the world is not disconnected in that manner.
billymg: the last two years killed any hope of "great awakening" for me
billymg: whatever bitcoin will carve out, if it can carve anything out, will be niche
signpost: you miss my point. the existence of a technology does not mean the end you hope for comes out of it.
signpost: for most people the internet means tiktok
signpost: hindbrain making mush of the forebrain.
signpost: our society sucks because the humans in it suck, myself included. therefore the project of interest is sucking less, and from that, other things flow.
verisimilitude: I believe hope to be an evil. I advise being hopeless instead, billymg.
signpost: it doesn't suck for lack of a new widget.

signpost gotta hit the hay, will be happy to pick up the thread in the morning.
billymg: i've got these family members, one of whom i set up with a paper wallet back in '15 or so. now the other family member is telling the former "you should put that on coinbase, where it's regulated"
thehorrors: good night, signpost, thanks for discussion
signpost: thehorrors: I appreciate the conversation.
signpost: yep, night
billymg: later signpost
billymg: got a friend like that too, i keep telling him "take it off coinbase", he's smart, he understands the implications, and yet he *chooses* to keep it on coinbase, because that's how you "behave"
thehorrors: That's said, but sort of reinforces my growing believe that technological fix may not be the answer, or at least a very small part of the answer
billymg: you can literally show them the open door to their cell and they won't walk out, they prefer the cell
