Paul and narrator Bob Bossin both live in Nanaimo. I have not met Paul but do know Bob personally and can go knock on his door any time.

I suspect these men are put off by promoters of Sodom. We don't ingest phytoestrogens or BPA here.

You know, most people don't care if you are gay, straight or even zoo as long as you close your bedroom door before you fuck.

Wearing your gonads out on your shirtsleeve is bound to put off normal people regardless of your "orientation".

Promotion of perversion is just that, and normal people are repulsed by those who do it.

As far as I can tell, the biggest obstacle to the acceptance of bitcoin is the dirty reputation of our self appointed cheerleader.

was u raped by a black dude you rascist closet homo

lol some of your other quotes are gold. i should dig them up for everyone.

As long as gay people don't ask hetrosexual males like me out on date, I don't care.

You should be extremely flattered. when it happens to me i get a massive confidence boost from being attractive and think im casanova. gay people and girls like the same dudes

I see the allure of that, and no need to trust a server Grin

With a server though handling many simultaneous mixes then it'd be impossible to analyse.

By channeling it through a central source, the noise from all other people obfuscates the channel. Information is permanently lost.

kk. Put whatever license you wish.

svn co https://leapingcat.org/svn/jasmin/artsource
svn co https://leapingcat.org/svn/cspop/artsource/models/

Take your pick from there. Whatever you use, send me 15mm3F6bV4jRHYYzwr5jbsYLaNtx4zPutN

EDIT: Seems to be down. If so then where can I upload the 700 Mb archive to?
1925  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: RFC: Bitcoin Mixnet on: January 21, 2011, 02:34:55 AM
Me and MagicalTux were discussing this. The concept we came up with to provide anonymity was:

A_x wants to send to B_x

A_1 sends 40 BTC to M
A_2 sends 10 BTC to M
A_3 sends 30 BTC to M

Spread over 1 week M does:

M sends 10 BTC to B_1
M sends 3 BTC to B_2
M sends 5 BTC to B_1
M sends 6 BTC to B_2
M sends 10 BTC to B_3
M sends 15 BTC to B_1
M sends 5 BTC to B_1
M sends 22 BTC to B_3

- The sums the mixnet sends never total the sums received. Its +/- a random amount (biased slightly towards - as the fee).
- Plausible deniability by spreading the funds over time.
- A_x provides several addresses for the B_x destination. M cycles through this list randomly then restarts once it's finished.

The only method to reverse engineer payments using this mixnet is through statistical analysis. If the payments are broken down enough, and many different users channel their payments through the system then it's very hard to rationalise what happened from the block-chain.

MIT/BSD = Freedom
GPL = Communism


I can do this too:

Bicycles = Freedom
Cars = Communism

Freestyle = Freedom
Backstroke = Communism

Brunettes = Freedom
Blondes = Communism

having good game is not an excuse to make up for your poor life. it should be supplementary (gaming chicks) fun. sometimes in my life girls becomes an everyday part, and in other times it's not even thought about for a while.

so all of this "get a hobby", "learn culture"... you should be doing that anyway to be a well rounded person! not because you think chicks will like you for it- otherwise it's just a false dichotomy.

some people care too much about stupid shit (mental baggage) that really they just need to gain emotional freedom & stop worrying.

1933  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Which countries have the cheapest electricity? on: January 20, 2011, 08:14:48 PM
If you're being serious then go to an oil rich developing country like Iran. They have lots of oil to burn for domestic electricity so it costs next to nothing (even poor citizens easily afford it). Energy consumption in Iran is 6.5 times that of global average because people don't give a fuck as it's nearly free.


Note how generation exceeds consumption by far,


Quote
It is estimated that 18.5% of electricity generated in Iran is wasted before it reaches consumers due to technical problems. Electric power wastage hit $1.1 billion in 2006.

This is a country that does not care about resource-conservation due to over-abundance.

It's possible to do purely P2P poker using cryptography to shuffle the cards. The problem is that either all n players have to cooperate to decrypt a card, in which case if any player leaves the hand can't be completed; or t < n players suffice to decrypt a card, in which case any t players could collude to learn other players' cards. But it could work for a friendly game.

Actually that's very slow. If you do choose to accept a central server (that they generate unbiased random numbers) then you can do a distributed shuffle. However you have the problem of one person leaving with their keys when they loose.

Then you have the other problem of needing an escrow to hold the funds in the current pot. It's definitely something I want to do in the future to protect against super-users but not a priority right now.

virtual machine is a good idea. Thanks will do that.

Now I have:
- Inside an encrypted virtual machine with only Bitcoin + backup scripts installed (no desktop).
- Encrypted wallet.dat on the encrypted drive.
- PGP signed backups on servers that use SSH keys + long password.
- Firewall blocking all ports except Bitcoin in the virtual machine.

Am I missing anything else? Beat that suckers.

Shouting until red in the face goes nowhere. Demonstrate by example- live outside the state. Work towards creating a better future. It's bound to happen eventually, what with the advent of the internet and the free software movement.

GIMP's product vision is that GIMP is or will become a free software high-end graphics application for the editing and creation of original images, icons, graphical elements of web pages and art for user interface elements.

new interface,


and the old style,


If they had more devs then they could work on these features everyone keeps complaining about. Kind of confusing how one of the most important free software projects has so few developers. Unlike Blender which has dozens. These are core-multimedia functionality on Linux!! They're an important pillar that needs fixing.

If anyone wants to invest in a bitcoin poker room then I've been working on it.

http://poker.bitcoinvegas.com

However there's lots of side issues that are slowing me down to a crawl. It'd be a definite + to be able to throw money at those issues and breeze through development.

Here's community reaction to our project:
http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/28/internet-poker/rake-free-open-poker-room-run-poker-community-938389/
http://www.liquidpoker.net/poker-forum/940985/Rake-Free__amp;_Ran_By_the_Poker_C...html

It'd also be good if I could find a partner to handle all the business/strategy side of development enabling me to focus on technology. My previous partner withdrew after consulting a lawyer to find that running such a company in the US isn't possible (his company is US-based), and would need to be based abroad in one of these gambling tax-free havens like Ireland.

One concession I'm willing to make would be licensing all the code under cc-by-nc (prevents commercial use) for 1 year to enable such a business to get a head-start before the code is completely GPL'ed.
