jdanks: He's usin' trash sites like cstocks and btcjam :/
jdanks: I guess the whole story is he has access to all this land, like a town, he just bought it up. He says he's gonna put solar (from Solar City) and Tesla is putting in a charging station. He has a bunch of vids of him working with kids, teaching them engineering and whatnot.

assbot: Humans!
mircea_popescu: ah cool, this goes jus' fine with my reddit piece.
mircea_popescu: allow me to dump some nonsense for ready future reference.
mircea_popescu: Enslaved by male-identification and years of practice within the system as we all still are to one degree or another, the assumption must be that the present system of monopoly capitalism and patriarchy must be replaced and that non-male-identified women must be the responsible ones. . . .
mircea_popescu: At least three further requirements supplement the strategies of environmentalists if we are to create and preserve a less violent world. I) Every culture must begin to affirm a female future. II) Species responsibility must be returned to women in every culture. III) The proportion of men must be reduced to and maintained at approximately 10% of the human race. . . .
mircea_popescu: To return species responsibility to women means in very practical terms that erotic and reproductive initiative must be restored to women all over the globe. . . .
mircea_popescu: Make the decision entirely that of the woman as to how she will be impregnated and how often, if indeed she chooses to be so at all, and whether by heterosexual intercourse, artificial insemination or a form of ovular merging. Restore to each woman the inalienable right to say what shall become of any fertilized egg and to control absolutely the number of children she wishes to emerge from her body. . . . Make nonexist
mircea_popescu: ent any male’s say-so in the process of reproduction. Create and protect alternative structures of economic and psychological support for independent women — women not attached to men — who are child-bearers and child-raisers. . . .
mircea_popescu: Women will bear the number of children they know can be sustained not just by their own social group but by the wide ecological system. They will not bear the children that some man wants only to perpetuate his name or the family possession of his property; they will not bear the children they presently convince themselves they must have because their only role is obedient wife and mother; women will not have the child
mircea_popescu: ren men think are necessary to perpetuate the tribe or the religion or the specific culture. Instead they will bear the children that they want, that they can care for, and that they assess are needed by the specific group and the entire species. . . .
mircea_popescu: In every culture it must be women in charge of the changes: women-identified women, no women who are pawns of men, not women who out of their fear of losing their lives or those of their children, still hold to the securities of that dangerous patriarchal culture, but women utterly free of coercion, free of male influence and committed to the principle that the right of species regulation is their own, and not the prer
mircea_popescu: ogative of any man. I suggest that lesbians and other independent women are already moving in this direction. . . .
mircea_popescu: To secure a world of female values and female freedom we must, I believe, add one more element to the structure of the future: the ratio of men to women must be radically reduced so that men approximate only ten percent of the total population. . . .
mircea_popescu: We now come to a critical point: how is such a reduction in the male population to take place? One option is of course male infanticide. It differs very little from the female infanticide that has apparently been carried out even into the twentieth century by some cultures. Such an alternative is clearly distasteful and would not constitute creative social change. . . .
mircea_popescu: [I]f women are given the freedom of their bodies then they may well choose [experimental "ovular merging" technology that produces only female embryos] in great enough numbers to make a significant difference in the sex ratio of women to men. A 75% female to 25% male ratio could be achieved in one generation if one-half of a population reproduced heterosexually and one-half by ovular merging.
mircea_popescu: Such a prospect is attractive to women who feel that if they bear sons no amount of love and care and nonsexist training will save those sons from a culture where male violence is institutionalized and revered. These are women saying, “No more sons. We will not spend twenty years of our lives raising a potential rapist, a potential batterer, a potential Big Man.”
mircea_popescu: so there you have it, perfectly good reason to oppose libertard environmentalism, along with the rest of women-studies driven libertardism.
jurov: ha, chetty knows you
mircea_popescu: the future, if there is one, is happy identification as slaves for the people who are, for very good reason, exactly that.
mircea_popescu: none of this bullcrap.
mircea_popescu: happiness comes out of accepting one's condition, not of pretending pigs fly and similar nonsense.
mircea_popescu: at least we clearly know where we stand.
mircea_popescu: jurov indeed.
chetty: Let me point out that as woman I think the author of that piece is totally insane.
mircea_popescu: this derpage is so delicious lol. olg hags clinging to a social relevancy and political influence they never had and never will have. derp on, sisters!
mircea_popescu: chetty just a little misguided, imo. she perceives the problem correctly, there's too many idiots.
mircea_popescu: the solutions she comes up with all stem from her unwarranted premise that she's a whole and complete being.
chetty: the current habit in some cultures of aborting the majority of female children is equally insane
mircea_popescu: anyway, i for one am muchly in favour of california and perhaps the entire us applying this novel thinking. for one thing, it's too expensive to find out what exactly the drawbacks of this ovular merging thing are other than by using voluntary subjects.
mircea_popescu: chetty simple way to beg for war is all.
mircea_popescu: anyway, "author and activist" is becoming the new "singer-songwriter", which is what elevator girls became after waitress-and-model went out of fashion with greenwich village
mircea_popescu: chetty to be honest, i think the only thing that's getting exterminated on the short and maybe medium term is your style of reasonable, golden middle sanity.
mircea_popescu: ain't nobody got time for that. not no more.
mircea_popescu: course they'll live to regret it, but on the plus side, not so very many of them.
chetty: hmm humans live longer, we have all these modern things to reduce work and yet we dont have time. I admit that one confounds me.
mircea_popescu: time is a psychological phenomenon.
mircea_popescu: roughly speaking, the time the subject perceives he has is a scalar computed as a function of the interruptions count in their brain.
mircea_popescu: the more often conscience flows get interrupted, the less subjective time is had.
mircea_popescu: simple musical verification of this : all military marches are short musical phrases with a lot of percution and a lot of short measures. all dirges are the opposite.

chalbersma: Taking a look at it.
X-Rob: ok
X-Rob: web just got better
RagnarsBitch: Geez rob. If you'd just built the pool like you said, we wouldn't be having this conversation
X-Rob: ... this is a really good point, RagnarsBitch
X-Rob: Ah, right. Share difficulty at 1.
jdanks: mircea_popescu: jdanks so what is this valley ? << seems like a hippie commune for BTC only everything. I can't imagine how we would pay for our power or electricity but it seems like the guy behind it all wants to teach children the importance of engineering, electronics, and crypto, through having a whole town run/get paid in BTC or other.
chalbersma: X-Rob can you try using a higher manual difficulty. Add +<diff> after your address in the username field.
X-Rob: chalbersma: have done that. IT's at +1024 now
X-Rob: It's not actually working, as it's still asking for difficulty 1 shares.
X-Rob tries setting the share difficulty
chalbersma: This is what I'm seeing on your shares: http://pastebin.com/dRLKzbAM

X-Rob: yes, as the share difficulty is set at 1
X-Rob: and it's not increasing
X-Rob: I'm just trying it with /1024 to see if that'll help
X-Rob: which has been buggy for a while.
chalbersma: !up RagnarsBitch
assbot: A guide for mining efficiently on P2Pool, includes FUD repellent and FAQ
chalbersma: Let me try ressetting both nodes and the share data on them. Starting fresh.
assbot: Issues forrestv/p2pool GitHub
X-Rob: chalbersma: In bitcoin.py, (if you didn't rename it, if you did, then you know what you're doing) look for SANE_TARGET_RANGE and change the '1000' to 1000000
chalbersma: Current same target range:
chalbersma: SANE_TARGET_RANGE = (2**256//2**32//1000000 - 1, 2**256//2**32 - 1)
mircea_popescu: jdanks myeah. maybe an idea for much later.
X-Rob: I don't know this part of the code, but apparently in work.py, there's ' target = 2**256-1' which you can change to target = bitcoin_data.difficulty_to_target(2048)
X-Rob: that may work
RagnarsBitch: jdanks -what's this WE shit. Sounds like your bags are packed
mircea_popescu: it's a counterfactual we.
jdanks: royal we
jdanks: but yes my bags ARE packed (: maybe not for his venue but for A venue
RagnarsBitch: I run a haxor sweatshop in my house, you're welcome anytime. Plenty of room for the chickens. Although not sure how they'll get along with the pups
jdanks: haha, yea they are outside birds. i'm sure we'd violate some kind of ordinance bringin them inside. of course the city'd hafta find out before your pups make a sweet supper outa them.
jdanks: i'm more of an outdoorsy type too (; if you have a patio and wifi i'm sold
RagnarsBitch: Oh yes. Nice sized backyard for OC. 2 mins from the beach
decimation: RagnarsBitch: is that Ocean City or Orange County?
RagnarsBitch: Laguna bch..orange
RagnarsBitch: jdanks is like 45 mins north of me
jdanks: OooOOoo so you ain't that far. I'm down in pico or bellflower a bunch
RagnarsBitch: I have this big hill behind my house I need to start planting on..tomatoes, corn, weed or w/e
jdanks: It's still hot, but that'd be next year
RagnarsBitch: Hmm. So can't plant until winter?
jdanks: i'd get a bunch of greens going till it cooled down. I may also start some carrots, beets, and parsnips early. maybe wait a couple more weeks.
jdanks: Nah it's not that you can't plant it's just you may not get great fruit
jdanks: Roots or fruits like full sun. 12 hours for fruits if you can give it without scorching or drying out the plant
jdanks: weed'd be like 15 minutes a day 4 times a day, you can grow that anywhere but in the ground i'd start those march/april
jdanks: water i mean, oh! i hafta get our sprinkler solenoids to ya when we have them working and assembled
RagnarsBitch: Already set up
jdanks: you can just pop the solenoid with the wires that go to the zone control box and replace it with ours to control it with your iphone/android or web browser
jdanks: you can get true control out of your zoning. i recall those boxes get pretty expensive when you want three timers
jdanks: and it's three timers to share amongst 5 or so circuits
RagnarsBitch: Ooh cool. Ok, enough farmer talk for now bud..I know you geek out on this stuff
X-Rob: chalbersma: [2014-09-15 07:49:28] Pool 1 difficulty changed to 1.0
X-Rob: [2014-09-15 07:49:28] Pool 1 stratum+tcp://104.131.60.126:8559 alive, testing stability
chalbersma: Okay I think I changed the max difficulty.
jdanks: Yes, and just incase the room didn't know I sell eggs for BTC. organic fresh chicken eggs. sometimes produce but not really (;
kakobrekla: are you chickens legal?
X-Rob: chalbersma: you want to change the MINIMUM difficulty, not the MAXIMUM
chalbersma: Ahh that makes sense.
chalbersma: Let me give that a try
kakobrekla: mininum?
jdanks: kakobrekla they use to not be but they are now! not a certified farm so i can't sell at farmers markets but who needs those!
kakobrekla: so its legal until its illegal?
jdanks: apparently in Los Angeles we have a city ordinance allowing animal control to dictate the minimum distance to be from a "dwelling", which is about 30 ft for hens and 100 ft for cocks
jdanks: I assume animal control could make it illegal any day they want
X-Rob: chalbersma: [2014-09-15 07:59:31] Pool 1 difficulty changed to 0.0
X-Rob: [2014-09-15 07:59:31] Pool 1 stratum+tcp://104.131.60.126:8559 alive, testing stability
X-Rob: that's not good
chalbersma: Let me undo my last change
X-Rob: chalbersma: It's still accepting 1 difficulty shares as a valid p2pool block
chalbersma: SANE_TARGET_RANGE = (2**256//2**32//1000000 - 1, 2**256//2**32 - 1)
chalbersma: it's Min then Max right?
X-Rob: you'd think so, yeah
chalbersma: SANE_TARGET_RANGE = (2**1024//2**32//1000000 - 1, 2**256//2**32 - 1)
chalbersma: So this should increase that number.
X-Rob: Mmm
X-Rob: that'
X-Rob: that's not going to be right

mircea_popescu: pornhub ?!
TheNewDeal: I'm not saying they are integrating
artifexd: "exposure" lol
TheNewDeal: it was just one chick showing her titties and talking about some piece of shit bitcoin companies like open bazaar
mircea_popescu: ya srsly, what's the big deal with pornhub lol.

mircea_popescu: what do you think this is, 2010 and anyone's not yet heard of bitcoin or something ?
TheNewDeal: I enjoy it when good companies pick up bitcoin, especially ones that are well suited for using it as a payment system
