1 2011-03-08 00:04:30 <mizerydearia> wooooooooooo update http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=2559.msg61443#msg61443
  2 2011-03-08 00:04:45 <mizerydearia> MASS AWAKENING INTRO
  3 2011-03-08 00:16:26 <jrabbit> Damn phonegap looked really cool until I realzied it was for "native" apps
  4 2011-03-08 00:16:31 <jrabbit> I guess I could still do it.
  5 2011-03-08 00:17:44 <keystroke> so are custom asics really worth it?
  6 2011-03-08 00:18:01 <midnightmagic> if you have to ask, then they aren't worth it for you. :-(
  7 2011-03-08 00:18:13 <jrabbit> lol
  8 2011-03-08 00:18:16 <keystroke> haha good point
  9 2011-03-08 00:18:27 <keystroke> nah i did some of the math on bits per second for sha256
 10 2011-03-08 00:18:29 <midnightmagic> they're probably not worth it for me either..
 11 2011-03-08 00:18:44 <keystroke> but i was really wondering cause i read some forum posts which put my assumptions into question
 12 2011-03-08 00:18:56 <midnightmagic> links?
 13 2011-03-08 00:19:05 <keystroke> ah it was last night... artforz was writing in it
 14 2011-03-08 00:19:08 <keystroke> let me try to find :)
 15 2011-03-08 00:19:28 <keystroke> i got some quotes for ip cores today just for fun
 16 2011-03-08 00:19:44 <sipa> keystroke: 1 bitcoin hash per second = 960 bits of hashing per second
 17 2011-03-08 00:20:15 <sipa> (assuming bitcoin hashing requires 120 sha rounds, and a normal 512 bit block requires 64 rounds(
 18 2011-03-08 00:20:28 <keystroke> thanks sipa :)
 19 2011-03-08 00:21:18 <sipa> that means a 5970 can actually do 67 GiB of sha256 hashing per second (though from many streams in parallel only)
 20 2011-03-08 00:21:54 <keystroke> i just started up a 5870
 21 2011-03-08 00:22:20 <AmpEater> Oc it yet!
 22 2011-03-08 00:22:29 <AmpEater> ?
 23 2011-03-08 00:22:52 <AmpEater> Most are good for 900mhz
 24 2011-03-08 00:22:53 <keystroke> not yet
 25 2011-03-08 00:23:01 <keystroke> probably this week
 26 2011-03-08 00:23:28 <keystroke> any special cooling needed?
 27 2011-03-08 00:23:33 <AmpEater> Nah
 28 2011-03-08 00:23:40 <AmpEater> Just max fan speed
 29 2011-03-08 00:23:53 <AmpEater> As long as you have good setup thar is
 30 2011-03-08 00:24:07 <AmpEater> Just watch the temp
 31 2011-03-08 00:24:54 <keystroke> thx AmpEater
 32 2011-03-08 00:25:16 <keystroke> maybe i'll get some more but single gpu mining will fall away soon
 33 2011-03-08 00:25:26 <keystroke> gotta watch that difficulty adjustment
 34 2011-03-08 00:25:37 <AmpEater> Yeah, it's a bitch
 35 2011-03-08 00:25:37 <keystroke> i ran it on my cpu in jan 2009 and stopped after 2-3 weeks.... whoops :)
 36 2011-03-08 00:25:48 <AmpEater> Lol
 37 2011-03-08 00:26:02 <AmpEater> Wish I had started early too
 38 2011-03-08 00:26:21 <keystroke> it'll be ok if bitcoins trade for oz. of gold :)
 39 2011-03-08 00:26:37 <luke-jr> how do I get my node in Fallback Nodes?
 40 2011-03-08 00:26:48 <sipa> on the wiki?
 41 2011-03-08 00:26:50 <luke-jr> yeah
 42 2011-03-08 00:27:08 <sipa> read the instructions at the bottom of the page
 43 2011-03-08 00:27:24 <AmpEater> I just built a couple rigs each with 1 5870 and 1 5970.....hoping difficulty stays level for a month or two
 44 2011-03-08 00:27:25 <AmpEater> Lol
 45 2011-03-08 00:27:31 <luke-jr> sipa: didn't work
 46 2011-03-08 00:27:38 <luke-jr> sipa: stupid bot removed it next revision
 47 2011-03-08 00:27:41 <subpar> AmpEater: heh
 48 2011-03-08 00:27:50 <MagicalTux> luke-jr, means you didn't apply the right format
 49 2011-03-08 00:27:54 <MagicalTux> or that your node wasn't up
 50 2011-03-08 00:27:59 <luke-jr> it's always up
 51 2011-03-08 00:28:03 <luke-jr> | nat.router.dashjr.org || Luke-Jr || 71.53.139.9 || {{Table Value No}} || {{Fallback Nodes/Node Up|version=Custom}} || 2011-03-02 17:00:03 || ?
 52 2011-03-08 00:28:04 <AmpEater> Or price skyrockets I guess
 53 2011-03-08 00:28:06 <MagicalTux> give me the ip, I'll add it for you
 54 2011-03-08 00:28:36 <MagicalTux> ok
 55 2011-03-08 00:28:37 <MagicalTux> I'll add it
 56 2011-03-08 00:28:47 <luke-jr> ty
 57 2011-03-08 00:29:00 <luke-jr> I split up https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Trade#Internet_services ; how does it look?
 58 2011-03-08 00:29:09 <MagicalTux> added
 59 2011-03-08 00:29:25 <luke-jr> MagicalTux: how will it know I run a custom version?
 60 2011-03-08 00:29:44 <MagicalTux> luke-jr, "custom version"?
 61 2011-03-08 00:29:48 <luke-jr> yes
 62 2011-03-08 00:29:52 <luke-jr> not a standard bitcoind
 63 2011-03-08 00:30:05 <MagicalTux> it'll show the /protocol/ version, not the software version
 64 2011-03-08 00:30:10 <luke-jr> oh
 65 2011-03-08 00:30:25 <MagicalTux> most people using nodes from there don't care about either, anyway
 66 2011-03-08 00:30:26 <luke-jr> there should maybe be a field for abnormal policies?
 67 2011-03-08 00:30:36 <MagicalTux> what are your policies?
 68 2011-03-08 00:31:02 <luke-jr> 1 TBC (0.00065536 BTC) per 512 bytes, simple fee
 69 2011-03-08 00:31:13 <luke-jr> non-standard tx allowed
 70 2011-03-08 00:31:56 <luke-jr> (I relay all, though)
 71 2011-03-08 00:31:59 <MagicalTux> I don't think "Fallback nodes" is the right page for that. Maybe we should add a "Non-standard miners" page, or something for people with custom rules
 72 2011-03-08 00:32:20 <luke-jr> hmm
 73 2011-03-08 00:32:42 <MagicalTux> "Fallback nodes" page is for people who want to limit connectivity of their bitcoind for specific reasons (ultra-restrictive firewall) and need reliable bitcoin nodes
 74 2011-03-08 00:32:55 <luke-jr> MagicalTux: btw, seen #bitcoin-watch ?
 75 2011-03-08 00:33:08 <MagicalTux> no
 76 2011-03-08 00:33:18 <luke-jr> it's a "unicorn puking rainbows"
 77 2011-03-08 00:35:31 <xelister> luke-jr: not possible to set black background?
 78 2011-03-08 00:35:39 <luke-jr> xelister: it does.
 79 2011-03-08 00:36:07 <xelister> [02:35] <xelister> ojacobson: well but MSI sounds really gay, it has MicroSoft in it
 80 2011-03-08 00:36:08 <xelister> [02:35] <ojacobson> xelister: You're deploying on Windows, dude.
 81 2011-03-08 00:36:10 <xelister> [02:35] <ojacobson> Also, use "gay" as a perjorative again and I'll ban you.
 82 2011-03-08 00:36:11 <xelister> [02:35] <xelister> nigger, please
 83 2011-03-08 00:36:13 <xelister> I wonder what will happen next.
 84 2011-03-08 00:36:34 <luke-jr> xelister: where?
 85 2011-03-08 00:36:44 <xelister> luke-jr: in your girlfriends bedroon
 86 2011-03-08 00:36:52 <luke-jr> xelister: Konversation is buggy-- it doesn't support bg colour codes
 87 2011-03-08 00:37:04 <luke-jr> xelister: should be able to set it to black globally though :
 88 2011-03-08 00:37:05 <xelister> luke-jr: oh
 89 2011-03-08 00:37:11 <xelister> yea
 90 2011-03-08 00:38:13 <xelister> would be nice if people would donate BTC to say package freenet into more user friendly form =)
 91 2011-03-08 00:38:30 <mizerydearia> xelister, oh?
 92 2011-03-08 00:39:32 <luke-jr> actually, it sounds like it's fixed for 1.4
 93 2011-03-08 00:39:33 <luke-jr> https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91738
 94 2011-03-08 00:41:08 <xelister> mizerydearia: yeap it would be nice
 95 2011-03-08 00:41:53 <mizerydearia> xelister, I was asking kinda questioningly.  I didn't understand it.
 96 2011-03-08 00:42:01 <xelister> mizerydearia: which one?
 97 2011-03-08 00:42:09 <mizerydearia> <xelister> would be nice if people would donate BTC to say package freenet into more user friendly form =)
 98 2011-03-08 00:42:46 <mizerydearia> As in if freenet accepted bitcoin payments to do something?
 99 2011-03-08 00:43:30 <keystroke> anyone else feel like bitcoin is one of the most revolutionary tools ever developed... or am i just crazy :)
100 2011-03-08 00:43:39 <luke-jr> keystroke: crazy.
101 2011-03-08 00:43:43 <mizerydearia> I know most groups, organizations, etc do not accept or even know about bitcoin, and even if they do know or accept, it may be difficult to specifically indicate upon a particular request, bitcoin payment will occur
102 2011-03-08 00:43:44 <keystroke> ;)
103 2011-03-08 00:43:59 <mizerydearia> However, perhaps I could establish such capability from within witcoin.com site
104 2011-03-08 00:44:00 <xelister> mizerydearia: freenet accepts BTC donations
105 2011-03-08 00:44:05 <keystroke> that's what i thought
106 2011-03-08 00:44:05 <mizerydearia> yeah
107 2011-03-08 00:44:09 <xelister> mizerydearia: I would accept BTC to do freenet realted work
108 2011-03-08 00:44:24 <mizerydearia> xelister, but would they specifically package freenet into more user friendly form for additional bitcoin donations?
109 2011-03-08 00:44:26 <xelister> mizerydearia: I'm accepting now BTC with da2ce7 to implement our super cool bitcoin-over-freenet protocol
110 2011-03-08 00:44:46 <luke-jr> who has 18XeA7NhqwW3Kqvxo481bQJhug5oKTaVKg and why does he keep getting 1 BTC tx?
111 2011-03-08 00:44:47 <xelister> mizerydearia: I would in example package freenet nicer, for some BTCs
112 2011-03-08 00:45:04 <xelister> luke-jr: your gf, I really like handjobs?
113 2011-03-08 00:45:09 <mizerydearia> yeah, but where would you promote that for many people to notice so it garnishes much attention?
114 2011-03-08 00:45:16 <xelister> mizerydearia: on forums?
115 2011-03-08 00:45:23 <luke-jr> xelister: I don't have gf
116 2011-03-08 00:45:24 <xelister> mizerydearia: btw did you seen bitcoin-over-freenet bounty?
117 2011-03-08 00:45:28 <mizerydearia> I haven't
118 2011-03-08 00:45:31 <xelister> luke-jr: :(
119 2011-03-08 00:45:33 <da2ce7> hmm, it would be good to get some more pledges.
120 2011-03-08 00:46:05 <xelister> da2ce7: I will ammend specyficaiton like tommorow, then lets make new forum post more promoted? and with clear like  350/1000 BTC rised, please donate in topic
121 2011-03-08 00:46:19 <mizerydearia> Is there a site like kickstarter, but that allows for bounties to exist for various purposes?
122 2011-03-08 00:46:24 <mizerydearia> with bitcoins
123 2011-03-08 00:46:32 <noagendamarket> mizery no
124 2011-03-08 00:46:33 <xelister> da2ce7: shy?
125 2011-03-08 00:46:41 <mizerydearia> hmm
126 2011-03-08 00:46:54 <da2ce7> xelister, maybe um just tightassed
127 2011-03-08 00:47:02 <noagendamarket> there is no site that manages bounties
128 2011-03-08 00:47:05 <da2ce7> *not in the good way
129 2011-03-08 00:47:13 <noagendamarket> lawl
130 2011-03-08 00:47:14 <mizerydearia> noagendamarket, Soon witcoin will ^_^
131 2011-03-08 00:47:18 <xelister> da2ce7: hmm what do you mean :) ?  you mean that not enough yet people offered donation?
132 2011-03-08 00:47:19 <noagendamarket> yay
133 2011-03-08 00:47:24 <luke-jr> is 18XeA7NhqwW3Kqvxo481bQJhug5oKTaVKg = spammer?
134 2011-03-08 00:47:52 <da2ce7> xelister, yeah either not many people offed to donate.
135 2011-03-08 00:48:09 <da2ce7> or not many people care :(
136 2011-03-08 00:48:41 <xelister> da2ce7: mizerydearia didnt now about BtcFn. link him :)
137 2011-03-08 00:49:19 <mizerydearia> ohnoes, I hope I am not involved in some sort of crime
138 2011-03-08 00:49:24 <xelister> initiate borg assimilation
139 2011-03-08 00:49:30 <da2ce7> https://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=2312.0
140 2011-03-08 00:49:44 <noagendamarket> lol
141 2011-03-08 00:49:57 <luke-jr> yeah, 18XeA7NhqwW3Kqvxo481bQJhug5oKTaVKg = spammer
142 2011-03-08 00:50:06 <xelister> kill him!
143 2011-03-08 00:50:14 <xelister> attack barier!
144 2011-03-08 00:50:15 <noagendamarket> release the hounds
145 2011-03-08 00:50:42 <mizerydearia> luke-jr, try encouraging them to spam at witcoin.  I would like to see how far they will get.
146 2011-03-08 00:50:55 <mizerydearia> I encourage them to try as much as they can afford to 6_^
147 2011-03-08 00:50:57 <keystroke> haha
148 2011-03-08 00:51:40 <noagendamarket> :)
149 2011-03-08 00:51:56 <mizerydearia> luke-jr, Additionally, I can associate a category with you (maybe spam.witcoin.com? ^_^) and you can specifically request them to spam in that category and then you will profit at their attempts
150 2011-03-08 00:52:08 <luke-jr> mizerydearia: how?
151 2011-03-08 00:52:11 <mizerydearia> how what?
152 2011-03-08 00:52:18 <luke-jr> how do I request them do anything?
153 2011-03-08 00:52:23 <mizerydearia> I am not sure?
154 2011-03-08 00:52:26 <luke-jr> :p
155 2011-03-08 00:52:55 <noagendamarket> viagra.witcoin.com
156 2011-03-08 00:52:58 <noagendamarket> :)
157 2011-03-08 00:53:05 <mizerydearia> well, firstly
158 2011-03-08 00:53:07 <noagendamarket> make it hard for spammers
159 2011-03-08 00:53:09 <mizerydearia> in what way did 18XeA7NhqwW3Kqvxo481bQJhug5oKTaVKg spam?
160 2011-03-08 00:53:29 <mizerydearia> 8 results @ google for 18XeA7NhqwW3Kqvxo481bQJhug5oKTaVKg
161 2011-03-08 00:53:36 <luke-jr> mizerydearia: #bitcoin-watch
162 2011-03-08 00:53:40 <mizerydearia> ah
163 2011-03-08 00:53:44 <luke-jr> mizerydearia: they're sending lots of small tx to that address
164 2011-03-08 00:54:12 <da2ce7> lol, google is indexing the block chain!
165 2011-03-08 00:54:29 <luke-jr> :P
166 2011-03-08 00:54:35 <da2ce7> that is going to be lots to data in a while.
167 2011-03-08 00:55:10 <mizerydearia> So basically, I could set up two bitcoin nodes, and write a script on each of the servers to send bitcoins to each other back and forth infinitely and also spam...
168 2011-03-08 00:55:26 <luke-jr> could do it with one node
169 2011-03-08 00:55:53 <AmpEater> What effect would it have?
170 2011-03-08 00:56:05 <da2ce7> yes, and if you need to include fees, you will be supporting the mining doing that.
171 2011-03-08 00:56:21 <luke-jr> AmpEater: mainly, preventing people from sending tx for free
172 2011-03-08 00:56:32 <AmpEater> I see
173 2011-03-08 00:56:50 <luke-jr> ever since the last tx spam, I stopped accepting *any* tx without fees
174 2011-03-08 00:56:53 <luke-jr> so I'm kinda immune
175 2011-03-08 00:56:55 <luke-jr> :D
176 2011-03-08 00:57:07 <da2ce7> I'm supprised that the big miners are not filling up the blocks with spam, to force people to include fees.
177 2011-03-08 00:57:17 <AmpEater> Bingo
178 2011-03-08 00:57:24 <luke-jr> da2ce7: we don't know they aren't.
179 2011-03-08 00:57:34 <luke-jr> but it's more efficient to just refuse to include free ones at all
180 2011-03-08 00:57:39 <da2ce7> luke-jr, the blocks are not full
181 2011-03-08 00:57:39 <luke-jr> afaik I'm the only one taking that road
182 2011-03-08 00:57:51 <luke-jr> da2ce7: the free parts are
183 2011-03-08 00:58:07 <luke-jr> da2ce7: only the first 10 KB or so can have tx without fees, per default policy
184 2011-03-08 00:58:24 <mizerydearia> luke-jr, Well, until mainline bitcoin client can allow for fees less than 0.01 bitcoins, I don't want to send a fee of 0.01 bitcoins.
185 2011-03-08 00:58:26 <da2ce7> http://blockexplorer.com/
186 2011-03-08 00:58:28 <sipa> 3000 bytes i think
187 2011-03-08 00:58:39 <da2ce7> the last blocks have all been under 10KB
188 2011-03-08 00:58:41 <luke-jr> mizerydearia: it can, I'm pretty sure
189 2011-03-08 00:58:57 <luke-jr> sipa: oh, that small?
190 2011-03-08 00:59:04 <mizerydearia> A couple days ago someone suggested it rounds 0.00000001 to 0.01
191 2011-03-08 00:59:15 <sipa> http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=4149.0
192 2011-03-08 00:59:43 <luke-jr> mizerydearia: current git mainline doesn't, I'm 99% certain
193 2011-03-08 00:59:52 <mizerydearia> hmm
194 2011-03-08 01:00:06 <da2ce7> hey, slush, can i have a option on your pool so it sends me the exact ammount of coins I select, so If I select 10 BTC, insted of sending me 10.326242 it send 10 exzact, and the ballance carries over?
195 2011-03-08 01:00:31 <luke-jr> da2ce7: that's all it does
196 2011-03-08 01:00:34 <luke-jr> unless he's changed it
197 2011-03-08 01:00:59 <sipa> da2ce7: all balances goes over
198 2011-03-08 01:01:05 <sipa> except the part below 0.01 BTC
199 2011-03-08 01:01:14 <da2ce7> nope, it send everythign you have earnt, as soon as you get more than the set ammount
200 2011-03-08 01:01:30 <sipa> oh, i misread
201 2011-03-08 01:01:33 <da2ce7> so you always have like 10.05723 or something like that.
202 2011-03-08 01:01:36 <sipa> why do you want that?
203 2011-03-08 01:01:45 <da2ce7> so I can keep my balances clean.
204 2011-03-08 01:01:51 <da2ce7> easyer to add up.
205 2011-03-08 01:01:54 <sipa> it's only up to two digits, no?
206 2011-03-08 01:02:07 <da2ce7> no, it is up to exzact
207 2011-03-08 01:02:21 <da2ce7> I beleve
208 2011-03-08 01:02:31 <mizerydearia> bitcoin client only sees 2 digits
209 2011-03-08 01:02:40 <mizerydearia> so it may be that slush eats the remaining amounts
210 2011-03-08 01:02:48 <sipa> he doesn't eat anything
211 2011-03-08 01:02:54 <da2ce7> ah no it seems to be rounded to 2 digits.
212 2011-03-08 01:03:02 <sipa> he just pays out up to two digits
213 2011-03-08 01:03:06 <mizerydearia> so, for example, if it sends you 10.011 bitcoins, it may eat the 0.001 and you will only receive 10.01
214 2011-03-08 01:03:08 <da2ce7> :P
215 2011-03-08 01:03:11 <sipa> and the rest remains in your account there
216 2011-03-08 01:03:20 <sipa> and accumulates until it becomes >= 0.01 BTC
217 2011-03-08 01:03:35 <mizerydearia> just a theory
218 2011-03-08 01:03:37 <mizerydearia> I didn't bother to check
219 2011-03-08 01:03:41 <sipa> it's wrong :)
220 2011-03-08 01:04:04 <mizerydearia> I also theorize that this isn't a theory
221 2011-03-08 01:04:15 <sipa> he does eat tx fees though :)
222 2011-03-08 01:04:21 <mizerydearia> yum
223 2011-03-08 01:04:29 <da2ce7> lol, well it is funny, the bitcoin community is in the 'super secert project' stage.
224 2011-03-08 01:04:29 <sipa> for *breakfast*
225 2011-03-08 01:04:30 <da2ce7> :)
226 2011-03-08 01:04:36 <mizerydearia> the next popeye?
227 2011-03-08 01:04:44 <da2ce7> everyone has a secert project that they are working on.
228 2011-03-08 01:05:00 <mizerydearia> I'm secretly working on a q&a site
229 2011-03-08 01:05:14 <mizerydearia> secretly it will be called hivemynd
230 2011-03-08 01:05:19 <noagendamarket> I dont think its a secret lol
231 2011-03-08 01:05:24 <mizerydearia> also secretly the name is courtesy of noagendamarket
232 2011-03-08 01:05:44 <da2ce7> I'm secertly working on a mining for porn site... like slushes pool, except when you submit shares you get access to images!
233 2011-03-08 01:05:46 <mizerydearia> even more secretly is that noagendamarket  is infamous
234 2011-03-08 01:06:03 <mizerydearia> da2ce7, kinda like sex.witcoin.com but instead of mining, there's posting?
235 2011-03-08 01:06:20 <da2ce7> no you use you GPU miner, and you get 'free' porn
236 2011-03-08 01:06:26 <da2ce7> so I get the bitcoins.
237 2011-03-08 01:06:32 <mizerydearia> ^_^
238 2011-03-08 01:06:47 <da2ce7> I thought that the 4chan and gamers would like it.
239 2011-03-08 01:06:55 <mizerydearia> unlikely
240 2011-03-08 01:07:00 <Cusipzzz> with my cpu miner, i would get ASCII porn i guess
241 2011-03-08 01:07:06 <da2ce7> lol
242 2011-03-08 01:08:07 <mizerydearia> noagendamarket, Cdecker's claim proves that you are infamous: http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=4175.msg61341#msg61341
243 2011-03-08 01:08:40 <Cusipzzz> like el guapo
244 2011-03-08 01:08:45 <noagendamarket> hmm  I am ned kelly :)
245 2011-03-08 01:08:48 <mizerydearia> oh hai Cusipzzz
246 2011-03-08 01:08:49 <mizerydearia> pm
247 2011-03-08 01:09:38 <noagendamarket> heh
248 2011-03-08 01:09:47 <da2ce7> straw poll, how many chicks do we have in #bitcoin-dev ? :P
249 2011-03-08 01:10:35 <da2ce7> lmao
250 2011-03-08 01:13:41 <noagendamarket> I dont know how many chicks
251 2011-03-08 01:13:48 <mizerydearia> Is it possibly to initiate force to make someone volunteer?
252 2011-03-08 01:13:52 <mizerydearia> possible*
253 2011-03-08 01:15:55 <da2ce7> mizerydearia, no that would be force, so it isn't voluteering.
254 2011-03-08 01:25:20 <xelister> da2ce7: lol
255 2011-03-08 01:56:35 <luke-jr> MagicalTux: see? :P
256 2011-03-08 02:02:03 <[Tycho]> "<ojacobson> Also, use "gay" as a perjorative again and I'll ban you" - why "gay" can't be used as a perjorative ?
257 2011-03-08 02:15:08 <nanotube> [Tycho]: because it implies that being gay is bad?
258 2011-03-08 02:15:26 <nanotube> and thereby wantonly insults all gay people?
259 2011-03-08 02:15:39 <luke-jr> nanotube: exactly
260 2011-03-08 02:19:14 <xelister> really nothing more interesting was said in last 1 hour? =)
261 2011-03-08 02:20:31 <BurtyB> nanotube the BBC don't agree ;) http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/article671972.ece
262 2011-03-08 02:22:28 <phantomcircuit> is there a rate limit for getblocks ?
263 2011-03-08 02:22:56 <nanotube> BurtyB: yea it's a cartman neologism. still, just like one can't force others not to use it, one also can't force others to like it.
264 2011-03-08 02:23:46 <nanotube> anyway, i was just explaining why someone may take offense at using 'gay' as an insult.
265 2011-03-08 02:24:12 <nanotube> the rest is up to you
266 2011-03-08 02:24:24 <phantomcircuit> an insult?
267 2011-03-08 02:24:31 <phantomcircuit> how is calling someone happy an insult
268 2011-03-08 02:25:33 <AAA_awright> ^ GAY
269 2011-03-08 02:26:20 <phantomcircuit> actually im not that gay
270 2011-03-08 02:26:23 <BurtyB> nanotube indeed, all good fun this language thing init...
271 2011-03-08 02:26:35 <phantomcircuit> for some reason bitcoind isn't responding by my getblocks requests
272 2011-03-08 02:26:53 <nanotube> heh yep
273 2011-03-08 02:28:11 <phantomcircuit> getblocks -1 to 0000000000006862e466 limit 500
274 2011-03-08 02:28:16 <phantomcircuit> -1? wtf
275 2011-03-08 02:30:07 <bk128> anyone here good with electronics?
276 2011-03-08 02:38:18 <lfm> bk128: what electronics?
277 2011-03-08 02:38:29 <gasteve> bk128: maybe a more specific question would get a better response
278 2011-03-08 02:38:52 <bk128> is the polarity of the 22uf cap in this circuit is backwards?  It's a charge pump to make a negative voltage to drive a lcd.  It works, and produces a negative voltage, but the voltage across the 22uf cap is reversed.  Just thinking I should flip it http://i52.tinypic.com/2626xcg.png
279 2011-03-08 02:38:59 <lfm> I think i remember which end of a soldering iron to hold on to
280 2011-03-08 02:41:17 <gasteve> sorry, no help from me (I thought you were going to ask how to set the clock on your VCR)
281 2011-03-08 02:41:45 <bk128> gasteve: are you a 12:00 flasher?
282 2011-03-08 02:42:00 <bk128> people who can never figure out how to set their clocks
283 2011-03-08 02:42:25 <gasteve> no, I prefer to flash earlier
284 2011-03-08 02:45:04 <MagicalTux> luke-jr, see what?
285 2011-03-08 02:45:17 <noagendamarket> someone should sell neopets for btc lol
286 2011-03-08 02:47:43 <dwdollar> polarity looks right to me
287 2011-03-08 02:48:29 <dwdollar> from the diagram
288 2011-03-08 02:49:37 <mizerydearia> In regards to "gay" term being misunderstoond, I suggest someone to establish a video parody in which, for example maybe someone sees something like a ... *thinks* ...   blue-colored toy car model that someone built, and someone says "that's gay" because they think it looks like crap or whatever... and then all of a sudden, another blue-colored toy car model drives up next to it and cuddles next to it. ^_^
289 2011-03-08 02:49:40 <dwdollar> ground is ground, it's going to be lower than anything on the other end
290 2011-03-08 02:50:47 <OneFixt> mizerydearia: ironically, in russian, "light blue" is slang for gay
291 2011-03-08 02:51:08 <[Tycho]> :)
292 2011-03-08 02:51:16 <mizerydearia> OneFixt, there's a "in soviet russia" there somewhere
293 2011-03-08 02:51:21 <mizerydearia> joke*
294 2011-03-08 02:51:21 <OneFixt> bingo =)
295 2011-03-08 02:52:03 <noagendamarket> in soviet russia gays fuck you ?
296 2011-03-08 02:52:09 <noagendamarket> no maybe not
297 2011-03-08 02:52:13 <OneFixt> in soviet russia, you're gay.
298 2011-03-08 02:52:17 <noagendamarket> lol
299 2011-03-08 02:52:31 <OneFixt> make that YOU'RE
300 2011-03-08 02:55:28 <bk128> dwdollar: no, the other terminal of that 22uf electrolytic is negative with respect to ground
301 2011-03-08 02:56:16 <luke-jr> MagicalTux: the bot removing me :P
302 2011-03-08 02:56:41 <MagicalTux> luke-jr, you doesn't look removed
303 2011-03-08 02:57:01 <MagicalTux> https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Fallback_Nodes <- I see you
304 2011-03-08 02:57:14 <MagicalTux> (this time)
305 2011-03-08 02:57:22 <dwdollar> bk128:  hmm... through the whole period?  Charge pumps mystify me I guess.
306 2011-03-08 02:59:37 <afed_> OneFixt: please don't say 'gay', it is offensive to my beliefs
307 2011-03-08 03:00:46 <OneFixt> afed_: of course, i wasn't using it in a negative sense, just chiming into the discussion about why NOT to use it, and unfortunately i got sucked into refining noagendamarket's joke
308 2011-03-08 03:01:50 <OneFixt> then again, i don't think the joke was too offensive
309 2011-03-08 03:04:15 <mizerydearia> xelister, pm
310 2011-03-08 03:08:46 <phantomcircuit> yeah im not crazy
311 2011-03-08 03:08:59 <phantomcircuit> making the exact same getblocks request more than once results in different results
312 2011-03-08 03:09:40 <bk128> block chain split?
313 2011-03-08 03:12:47 <phantomcircuit> nope
314 2011-03-08 03:13:18 <phantomcircuit> looks like the map of hashes to blocks fails
315 2011-03-08 03:13:59 <phantomcircuit> getblocks -1 to 0000000000006862e466 limit 500
316 2011-03-08 03:14:49 <phantomcircuit> eh
317 2011-03-08 03:15:00 <phantomcircuit> network protocol appears to support multiple possible start points
318 2011-03-08 03:15:18 <phantomcircuit> but the actual handling in bitcoind doesn't
319 2011-03-08 03:15:33 <[Tycho]> Looks like someone is exploiting bitcoind atm...
320 2011-03-08 03:15:58 <phantomcircuit> ?
321 2011-03-08 03:16:13 <phantomcircuit> what did everybodies btc just get transfered to a new address ?XD
322 2011-03-08 03:16:40 <mmarker> ?
323 2011-03-08 03:16:46 <[Tycho]> No, in a realistic way.
324 2011-03-08 03:19:28 <luke-jr> MagicalTux: any idea what was breaking it?
325 2011-03-08 03:19:43 <luke-jr> MagicalTux: also, if that's a protocol version, why is there a 0.3.20? did the protocol actually changeG
326 2011-03-08 03:36:05 <gasteve> so, what does it mean that "someone is exploiting bitcoind atm..."?
327 2011-03-08 03:42:30 <lfm> it means we are overrun with paranoids here
328 2011-03-08 03:43:31 <jgarzik> heh
329 2011-03-08 03:46:44 <phantomcircuit> YAY PARANOIDS
330 2011-03-08 03:47:53 <Cusipzzz> even paranoid people are being followed, sometimes
331 2011-03-08 03:48:03 <AmpEater> Ps, the sky is falling
332 2011-03-08 03:50:33 <mizerydearia> this idea by sgornick is interesting: http://forumquotes.witcoin.com/p/340/A-distasteful-but-not-dangerous-item-mailed-to-a-politician
333 2011-03-08 03:51:09 <mizerydearia> Actually, originally by Littleshop and error
334 2011-03-08 03:51:52 <noagendamarket> lawl   I replied
335 2011-03-08 03:52:00 <mizerydearia> sgornick, Maybe as a kind of courtesy, we should make a habit (I have done so a couple times) of contacting those that we cite alerting them of the witpost and perhaps encouraging them to post instead or also.
336 2011-03-08 03:52:35 <mizerydearia> that way, the original authors can establish profitability from their own posts instead of us plagiarizing and profiting from works of others.
337 2011-03-08 03:53:23 <gasteve> it's not paranoia if they're really out to get you ;)
338 2011-03-08 03:53:26 <mizerydearia> btw, I use "we" loosely as in that we may have shared the same actions, but not that we are affiliated
339 2011-03-08 03:54:23 <mizerydearia> For example, I posted http://random.witcoin.com/p/338/spammer-alert but I didn't contact the guy in the picture suggesting for him to post himself so that he could profit instead of me.
340 2011-03-08 03:55:24 <noagendamarket> you didnt spam him ?
341 2011-03-08 03:55:35 <noagendamarket> how can you live with yourself :)
342 2011-03-08 03:56:12 <jgarzik> https://freebitcoins.appspot.com/ quite low on funds
343 2011-03-08 03:57:16 <noagendamarket> we are setting up the ability to donate to charity on witcoin
344 2011-03-08 03:57:33 <noagendamarket> the faucet will be one of those
345 2011-03-08 03:57:51 <Aciid> sent some goodies to the fauclet
346 2011-03-08 03:57:52 <noagendamarket> so hopefully you can donate without having to remeber to do so :)
347 2011-03-08 03:58:10 <[Tycho]> "[07:42] <lfm> it means we are overrun with paranoids here" - look at the transactions queue.
348 2011-03-08 03:58:42 <AmpEater> Yeah what's up
349 2011-03-08 03:59:06 <Aciid> http://www.bitcoincharts.com/bitcoin/
350 2011-03-08 03:59:10 <Aciid> wtf is going on here
351 2011-03-08 03:59:41 <JackRabiit> Any noise on the technology to run GPU mining as more of a background app, IE play Real games while mining ata slow speed, then when the game ends, the miner speeds up due to free gpu?
352 2011-03-08 04:00:41 <Aciid> is someone spamming with transactions?
353 2011-03-08 04:00:43 <AmpEater> Someone forcing tx fees?
354 2011-03-08 04:01:17 <genjix> http://tauday.com/
355 2011-03-08 04:01:20 <genjix> Pi is bullshit. Hail Tau
356 2011-03-08 04:03:45 <gasteve> how do you look at the transaction queue?  I keep #bitcoin-watch open and haven't noticed a significantly high volume of transactions coming through
357 2011-03-08 04:04:58 <nanotube> http://www.bitcoincharts.com/bitcoin/ <-- gasteve
358 2011-03-08 04:08:01 <gasteve> that's not a lot...and many are spends to the same account...isn't that the anti-spamming feature kicking in to throttle the rate?
359 2011-03-08 04:09:48 <[Tycho]> Actually bit transaction queque DO have bad effect on bitcoind.
