Vexual: asciilifeform I'm sure I can find some kids to collect car wheel balancing weights for a six pack of light beer
asciilifeform: Vexual: best place to get astounding quantities of lead, cheaply, is... a boatyard.
asciilifeform: or maybe not anymore, with prices being what they are. 'peak lead'...
BingoBoingo: If you are brave enough to trek to Missouri there is still plenty in the rocks to be mined.
BingoBoingo: Doing things the official way would be expensive, but guerilla lead mining might be economical.

jurov: (i deployed a patch yest that you can't register without doing that)
BingoBoingo: jurov: I actually did manage that, but that was right when I opened the bottle. Now the bottle is empty and there is one half glass left.
random_cat_: is bitfunder expiring?
random_cat_: err.. unwinding
BingoBoingo: random_cat_: Buttfunder is doing something...

random_cat_: hmm... what's the 2fa bickering amount to?
jurov: if you lose your google auth key, you have to come to irc and pass battery of turing tests
jurov: such as, patiently waiting few hours for ukyo to appear. bots cannot do that.
random_cat_: o
random_cat_: :D
random_cat_: i'd think bots would be ideal for that ;>
random_cat_: i'm just logging in after a hiatus and seeing depressed prices + notices about position changes for 'us entities'
random_cat_: and very vague statements about withdrawals
random_cat_: looks like he's looking for KYC too
jurov: yes, KYC from everyone... but verifications seems to be stalled
random_cat_: how so?
random_cat_: ukyo isnt processing them?
jurov: i had to remind him to process mine after a week.. and others wait longer
random_cat_: ugh
BingoBoingo: jurov: Now CoinBr is going the MPEx route and AML/KYC can burn in hell?
jurov: Yes. I even paid for some research and it's no problem around here.
jurov: Actually, there will be a LLC listed as CoinBr operator soon :)

jcpham: the things we just accept
nubbins`: it's amusing that the meter is defined in terms of the distance a beam of light moves in x amount of time
nubbins`: and a kilogram is "this thing right here"
nubbins`: even more amusing that they literally cannot find a better way to define it
jcpham: mhhm

jcpham: collaboration and messaging based on common ideals whether realized or not
truffles: collaboration jcpham?
truffles: many things seem disjointed
jcpham: yes we are all collaborators or co-conspirators
jcpham: whether realized or not
truffles: if u think so
truffles: maybe im just looking at it too critically
jcpham: probably focusing on details and not what the technology enables generally
jcpham: the tech enables the spread of ideas
truffles: im not sure we're on teh same topic
jcpham: i'm usually a few ideas ahead
jcpham: i digress
truffles: 1 sec
truffles: got interrupted.. forgot my rant
jcpham: freenode is an organization, a disjointed entity of ideas and communication
jcpham: powered by realtime messaging and collaboration software
jcpham: if exxon wants to collaborate they spend money for software
jcpham: same for any group
nubbins`: i think calling an irc client collaboration software is a bit of a stretch
jcpham: nope
jcpham: it is exactly what is
truffles: so ambitous and optimistic
jcpham: some people do not collaborate
nubbins`: well, it doesn't offer any collaboration features beyond messaging itself
jcpham: communication
jcpham: it is basic yes
nubbins`: you might as well call the telephone a collaboration system
jcpham: yes
nubbins`: or a paper and pen
jcpham: yes
jcpham: those things are complex
nubbins`: actually, a paper and pen is a way better collaboration system than irc
jcpham: require much work
nubbins`: how about a small table with two chairs? a collaboration system?
jcpham: go away

kleeck: ""We had an air-gapped computer that just had its [firmware] BIOS reflashed, a fresh disk drive installed, and zero data on it, installed from a Windows system CD," Ruiu said.

How can the machine react and attack the software that we're using to attack it? Th
kleeck: is is an air-gapped machine and all of the sudden the search function in the registry editor stopped working when we were using it to search for their keys.""
kleeck: This is bad.
truffles: some genius made that one eh
kleeck: Mix this with a BTC Exploit...
kleeck: Clean wipe, new OS, EVEN LINUX.
kleeck: If interested check out what people are reporting in #badBIOS. Scary shit...
kleeck: "I lost another one yesterday confirming that's simply plugging in a USB device from an infected system into a clean one is sufficient to infect. This was on a BSD system, so this is definitely not a Windows issue.- and it's a low level issue, I didn't even mount the volume and it was infected. Could this be an overflow in the way bios ids the drive? "
truffles: im not techie
nubbins`: ""badBIOS," as Ruiu dubbed the malware, has the ability to use high-frequency transmissions passed between computer speakers and microphones to bridge airgaps."

nubbins`: kleeck, this is fascinating
kleeck: ""Really, everything Dragos reports is something that's easily within the capabilities of a lot of people," said Graham, who is CEO of penetration testing firm Errata Security. "I could, if I spent a year, write a BIOS that does everything Dragos said badBIOS is doing. To communicate over ultrahigh frequency sound waves between computers is really, really easy.""
kleeck: wut
kleeck: I've been in tech all my life, I've never known that communicating over ultrahigh frequency sound waves was really, really easy.
kleeck: The implication there is not good at all...
nubbins`: mildly surprised that plain old laptop mics and speakers can do it, at least
truffles: just contain mr ruiu and virus wont spread anymore..
truffles: he's just plugging his usb everywhere
kleeck: Holy shit, Ruiu said he arrived at the theory about badBIOS's high-frequency networking capability after observing encrypted data packets being sent to and from an infected laptop that had no obvious network connection with—but was in close proximity to—another badBIOS-infected computer. The packets were transmitted even when the laptop had its Wi-Fi and Bluetooth cards removed. Ruiu also disc
kleeck: onnected the machine's power cord so it ran only on battery to rule out the possibility it was receiving signals over the electrical connection. Even then, forensic tools showed the packets continued to flow over the airgapped machine. Then, when Ruiu removed the internal speaker and microphone connected to the airgapped machine, the packets suddenly stopped.

mircea_popescu: deadweasel well apparently he had it for 1 yr+ he says

deadweasel: i'd expect he's been using the same USB, or getting them mixed up, infected, uncleaned.

dexX7: max 4 :p
kleeck: Anyone else...
kleeck: :P
dexX7: haha
kleeck: Is it in the hundreds? thousands?
kleeck: I just don't know.
mircea_popescu: kleeck whose test batch ?
kleeck: In general.
mircea_popescu: there is no in general eh ?
kleeck: So it varies based on fab?
mircea_popescu: one wafer is usually a reasonable way to go about test chips, but depends how many chips you cut to the wafer.
kleeck: Gotcha
mircea_popescu: well yes, it varies on the chip, tyhe fab, who's doing it etc.
kleeck: wafer is a good point.
mircea_popescu: yes, as a rule of tumb. but maybe you tacked your test run into an incomplete other wafer.
mircea_popescu: people do this all the time. whether they be students getting a freebie or a corp dept piggubacking on another's job.
kleeck: I see.
mircea_popescu: you could also be big enough to cut 12 test wafers cause you need a lot of tests.
kleeck: So is this normally negotiated with the fab?
mircea_popescu: it's just a term with no direct meaning. depends what whoever said it meant.
mircea_popescu: like "pretty"
kleeck: Heh.
kleeck: Gotcha. That gives me some clarity.
kleeck: Hah. You missed our talk about #badBios earlier, Jurov. I too was lamenting it's beauty.
mircea_popescu: jurov it also uses our collective sisters to spread by now.

KRS-: should be free
Namworld: Looks like it's still not available
Namworld: Since I'm in Canada, it probably is for people that requires it. No clue.
nubbins`: how do you test your blood w/o a needle?
Namworld: Some companies are getting close apparently. It's getting more accurate.
jurov: bah, just taste it how sweet it is
Namworld: Through light or something, and infering glucose content from that. I forgot how they do it.
jurov: they measure refractive index
nubbins`: like you just point it at your skin?
nubbins`: still confused
jurov: dunno how the needleless ones work

bob____: to stockholders only though. buy your shares quick!
bob____: so, to be clear, the fact that they are accepting applications means they have *already* cleared all the regulatory hurdles they said they need to start this real, offical bank. What's the name of that bank again? I suppose I should be able to look it up if its real and regestered and everything.

topace: becuase the fee's sucked
topace: $6 load fee, $3/month fee, $1.50 usage fee, $2.00 cash withdrawal fee, etc

nubbins`: virtex debit is a bit lighter on fees, but still to steep for me to bother signing up
mircea_popescu: <ThickAsThieves> i knew there would be some things i couldnt just say quickly << maybe offer a cash settlement ?
mircea_popescu: strictly as a convenience so people d on
nubbins`: i think the real draw is that it's more convenient than direct deposit for withdrawing your funds
mircea_popescu: 'rt end up with fractionaries in 50 symbols.
mircea_popescu: the last 50 can be turned to 0.3btc or w/e.
ThickAsThieves: the problem is the price is pretty damn volatile right now

ThickAsThieves: already a lot to it and going in
ThickAsThieves: i know people have wanted both services for a while
ThickAsThieves: any service i could offer to buy back odd amounts would surely net the holder less than selling em at market
mircea_popescu: a, i thought the mkt was closed on that particular symbol. nm.
ThickAsThieves: for some people (US) it will be closed tomorrow
ThickAsThieves: I have been selling some people's shares for them, whom didnt want to migrate anywhere
ThickAsThieves: as unofficial service of sorts
Ademan: ThickAsThieves: what will be closed tomorrow?
Ademan: oh, btct.co? I thought you meant something would be closed to US customers tomorrow
pankkake: bitfunder is closed to US on November 1st
ThickAsThieves: BTCT.co is closing and Bitfunder will disallow selling from US accounts
ThickAsThieves: Us users can still have accounts on BF til Dec 2nd
ThickAsThieves: to collect divs or such
Ademan: Ah, as long as we're not talking about havelock (yet :-( )
Ademan: how do they determine who's in the US anyways? Is it just by access location?
Ademan: Also a surprising amount of no bets, although Nov 5 is a pretty short timeframe
Ademan: ThickAsThieves: You manage AM1 on Havelock as well right? Will you be doing PT conversions if that were to happen?
Ademan: er sorry, direct conversions
ThickAsThieves: AM1 already allows it
ThickAsThieves: and i get fresk copies of the shareholder list twice per day
Ademan: I guess I'd have to just dump all of my AM100 in that case though huh?
Ademan: that'll be a great day for international investors at the expense of US ones...
ThickAsThieves: well if you choose the specific scenario where you might lose something in some possible future, well, you always lose, no?
ThickAsThieves: the odds are that given the avenue, things will get sorted
Ademan: Are you interested at all in colored coins?
dexX7: mastercoin seems to push it forward constantly with new contests and rewards
Ademan: I want it to work cause I'd love to avoid future exchange closures
pankkake: I fail to see how that solves the exchange issues, it looks like just a fancy way of having direct shares
Ademan: I was about to say heh
dexX7: mastercoin has an orderbook based on tx
Ademan: On the other hand, if an exchange closes where you bought a colored coin based share, you don't have to liquidate it or worry
Ademan: dexX7: ah awesome, I actually didn't know that
mircea_popescu: Ademan you are aware mpex is the oldest right ?
dexX7: but the concept seems so... wrong :D they use additional outputs to encode data in form of btc addresses, all linked to the exodus address
dub: -assets don't like no colored nuthin boa
dexX7: mp, you should send burnside flowers :p
pankkake: so you'd have to pay a fee to put an order or cancel one, and wait for it to be included in a block?
dub: aint yall read mp's blog
pankkake: sending and trading colored coins on an exchange would make sense. you could get them out when you don't want to trade
dexX7: even 2-3x fees. one tx goes to the exodus address to "register" your action, the other one goes into the void and encodes the data and the third one may be used as actual value tranasfer

mircea_popescu: they had ups and downs
Namworld: I think they were around 70000 profit when they sold
pankkake: I think it went down to -4000, maybe more
pankkake: (just dice)
Namworld: Comparatively, Coinroll made 1000 BTC profit and less than 120'000 BTC wagered. Which is actually under the house 1% margin.

kakobrekla: you wanted someone to do a btc denominated fund right?
dub: I think he wanted to get forex guys into btc
jurov: you were able to find some partner for bit4x, that's all i meant
benkay: get all the forex guys into btc.
kakobrekla: ah i misunderstood then sorry
kakobrekla: jurov well its was a coincidence
dub: it was all a dream he used to read word up magazine
dub: saltnpeppa heavyd up in the scene
jurov: anyway, coinbr new fees are in effect since now. if anyone wants to withdraw, let me know, cuz i'm going to sleep in a while.
dub: now hes in the limelight cause he trades right
VanCleef_: biggie smalls
mike_c: so.. panacea is forex trading BTC/EUR?
mike_c: er
mike_c: EUR/USD but it's btc denonimated?
mike_c: ok, so those return percentages are in btc
kakobrekla: correct
pankkake: what happens if btc/usd changes a lot?
kakobrekla: bit4x is since btc was 10$
mike_c: and, don't mean this rudely, this has nothing to do with btc because it's trading eur/usd ?
mike_c: except that buy-in cash-out are btc
kakobrekla: you are always in btc
mike_c: ok. so, i give you 100 btc. you use that as collateral to trade EUR/USD. hopefully you make profit. you give me back 102 btc.
kakobrekla: like that yea
kakobrekla: my profits and loses are in btc
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [AM100] 78 @ 0.00563 = 0.4391 BTC [+]
kakobrekla: pankkake also the positions are so small and the leverage can go really high so no worries for a margin call
mike_c: and the evidence that I have as an investor that you are awesome at this is 3 months of profits..
kakobrekla: you shouldnt rely on that, past perf is no guarantee
mike_c: what should I base my investment decision on?
kakobrekla: but i do have 1k+ of my own riding on it
pankkake: ok, I think I get it
mike_c: since i don't know your CV
kakobrekla: i dont see how cv would help
kakobrekla: either you trust or you do not
kakobrekla: welcome to bitcoin
mike_c: i do trust, in that i don't worry about the safety of my btc
mike_c: but i feel like evidence is a tad slim around your skills at forex.
kakobrekla: i cant make you any guarantee of future profits
kakobrekla: if any
kakobrekla: well then i suggest you not to invest
mike_c: fair enough. good luck with it though.
mike_c: it does look better than 96% of btc investments, so hopefully you get some bites.
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 6350 @ 0.00082864 = 5.2619 BTC [-] {3}
kakobrekla: i already have private investors since last dec
mike_c: didn't want to share numbers since then?
kakobrekla: so i dont 'need' any bits, but its there if anyone want to join the party
kakobrekla: because it was not this model
mike_c: ah
mike_c: what's the variance like? 20% high watermark.. is the high watermark usually close to end-of-month performance?
kakobrekla: 20% on profits that is.
mike_c: oh, so not 20% of your highest point of the month. 20% of profit at end of month.
kakobrekla: profit is ~20% higher than what you see in the table 'performance after fees'
mike_c: ok, i believe you are saying something different below: "Performance fee:20% high watermark monthly"
kakobrekla: if i have a negative month, no fees are taken until it reaches new high from the top
mike_c: ah
mike_c: that is much better than how i read it.
kakobrekla: well thats what 20% high watermark monthly means
mike_c: kk
kakobrekla: maybe i should add an explanation below
mike_c: for idiots.
mike_c: we do have some money left :)
Namworld: I have a long history of paying interest on loaned amounts. Good backings. I will need to replace current lenders.
kakobrekla: heh well i hope 50btc min will give me enough peace
kakobrekla: was 100 originally
kakobrekla: changed in last minute
kakobrekla: anyway etf will follow.
mike_c: etf for panacea?
mike_c: with profit paid as dividends?
kakobrekla: not sure yet
kakobrekla: id much rather do closed ended but people.....
Namworld: Not sure anyone would be interested in that...
kakobrekla: yeah cause they are silly
mike_c: well, to be fair, a dividend stream does reduce the trust factor a little
mike_c: but i guess not much.
kakobrekla: the thing is, as an asset manager you are supposed to better at handling money than other people
kakobrekla: thats why the idea to keep it
kakobrekla: cause its already in the right place so to speak
mike_c: that only works if the asset manager is working a big enough opportunity. which forex obviously is.
Namworld: Well darn, not sure how I will be trading without any liquidities.
kakobrekla: yeah i could prolly handle 21 mio btc with that liquidity.
mike_c: etf on mpex?
pankkake: what else?
mike_c: it'll be nice having a non-mp company on there, just for variety sake.
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 1 @ 0.608 BTC [-]
kakobrekla: not a company.
mike_c: right. it's an etf that is 100% invested in.. your company. right?
kakobrekla: bit4x will prolly never list anywhere, but asset managment org might
kakobrekla: this now would be just etf
kakobrekla: by now i mean some a few months.
kakobrekla: some/a few
mike_c: etf tracking the performance on panacea.
mike_c: *of
mike_c: yes, totally different than non-voting stock :)
kakobrekla: well i guess you got a point there
kakobrekla: a non zero asset corp it is called.
kakobrekla: well not sure about the corp part, depends how strict one is id guess

kakobrekla: not bad.
mike_c: you an investor?
kakobrekla: me? nope
mike_c: i think dooglus has a good heart and no clue how to run a casino.
kakobrekla: why you say no clue?
mike_c: the whole "1% max bet", then get beat up, then down to 0.25, looks like now its 0.5
dexX7: creepy.. the lady is always watching
dexX7: @sd
mike_c: i don't think he understands what the swings will be like often - and i know his investors dont
kakobrekla: yeah he does have to handle bunch of penny investors
kakobrekla: i can see how that is a pain
mike_c: even 0.5% of bankroll is too big for long-term success. the drawdowns will be big and the investors are not ready for it
kakobrekla: "mah 0.8 coin is nao only 0.75 doog fix it nao dis inaxeptablu"
mike_c: heh
kakobrekla: srsly twas like .81 b4
mike_c: you'll get those mails after the etf comes out

Jere_Jones: Yo dexX7
thestringpuller: anyone from bitvps around?
Jere_Jones: I find that people on bitcointalk tend toward the "asshole" side of the scale. I don't know if that's because bitcoin brings out the asshole in people or assholes tend to have the loudest voices. However, your posts are always levelheaded and useful. I appreciate that.
arij: hey thestringpuller
Jere_Jones: So... thanks. That's it.
thestringpuller: hey arij can I serve things off ports ?

mike_c: holy shit i thought you were kidding. DaaS is real :D only $25 a month for 100gigs!

arij: to see which ports are open
thestringpuller: it's serving off local cool thanks arij much appreciated

dub: IONTERNTS
Diablo-D3: I think bitfunder is broken
Diablo-D3: it says there are two people that own a significant amount of DMC shares
Diablo-D3: one 1774, one 550
Diablo-D3: these people do not seem to actually exist
pankkake: well I got a share of a company on an account I never used
pankkake: so, who knows
pankkake: bitfunder is broken by design or something
Diablo-D3: well, I cant even contact them
Diablo-D3: I have no clue who they are
Diablo-D3: they arent on IRC either
Diablo-D3: and they have another hour and a half to trade their shares in for AM before DMC closes its doors forever
dub: how many AMs does my share get?
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [AM100] 80 @ 0.0055136 = 0.4411 BTC [-] {3}
Diablo-D3: dub: none.
Diablo-D3: dub: you need at least 11.
dub: scammer
Diablo-D3: not at all. friedcat doesnt offer fractional shares
dub: I paid a whole satoshi for that share
Diablo-D3: hah.
Diablo-D3: and you've probably made more than that back in divs
dub: uh no
Diablo-D3: uh, yes?
dub: no
Diablo-D3: even if you got ONE div, it would have been more than 1 satoshi
dub: no divs
Diablo-D3: lol you sold it before you got one div?
dub: didnt sell it
Diablo-D3: so wheres your divs?
dub: fuck if I know
dub: you're the scammer
dub: you tell me
Diablo-D3: I dont handle div distribution
Diablo-D3: bitfunder does
dub: buttfunder?
Diablo-D3: did you check your bitfunder account balance?
Diablo-D3: yes, buttfunder. for buttcoins.
dub: I don;t have a buttfunder account
Diablo-D3: if you dont have a buttfunder account then you dont actually have any shares
thestringpuller: ridin' with my top down - swizz beats
Diablo-D3: I dont offer direct shares, all shareholder data at the GLBSE transition was uploaded to bitfunder
Diablo-D3: you were sent an email on how to create a bitfunder account
dub: yeah butt I'd need a weakexchange account or someshit to use buttfunder
Diablo-D3: to move btc in and out, yes
Diablo-D3: I think its retarded
Diablo-D3: I wish Ukto would just let people move money out of accounts without weex
dub: anyway I will forever remember you as teh guy that jipped me for a satoshi
Diablo-D3: dub: except you wern't jipped
dub: thats right I was gypped
Diablo-D3: thats even worse
Diablo-D3: btw, I need to talk to ukto
Diablo-D3: and have all unclaimed dividends sent back to DMC
dub: just send them to me along with teh outstanding AMs and we're square
Diablo-D3: like I said, friedcat doesnt do fractional shares
Diablo-D3: otherwise I actually would
