In that same way, immunisation for an individual is useless unless a critical mass of the population also immunises themselves at the same time. For me it's a slightly -EV choice. For everyone together, it's massively +EV.
It's called The Insurance Company. Insurance want to reduce chance of insuree getting into hospital. Perform a cost analysis, decides that it's cheaper to have everyone be immunized. Offer discount for immunization, moreso if x clients sign up.... Well, you get the idea.

I will say this again and again ad nauseam.
Incentives matter.

The new funding option for Mt. Gox should influence prices in a positive direction. It is now much easier for people in the Euro-zone to get money into Mt. Gox, and buy bitcoins there.
New funding option? Did I miss something?

You're a free person. You don't have to do this.
Therefore you don't have to apologise. That will just make it seem like a burden.
Um....

Presumably if the protocol requires a renewal transaction, the identity authentication system (likely a public/private hash key) would allow you to create a new "transaction" on the network submitting the necessary information along with a transaction fee.
I see. Then the miners will set the fee for domain renewal.

As part of the official Fully p2p anonymous client. Who will run the server what if the server goes down. Until a p2p pooled miner is out this is asking for trouble.
Just ask another person to run one.

This wont work as pooled mining needs a server. central server. we need a p2p miner done.
And why it won't work?

How would domain name renewal work?

What linux distro? Looks like cmake or gcc or some other dependency is broken.
Never mind. Root directory have no space.

A government directed assassination of the wikileaks director will be in even deeper shit than wikileak that it is not even funny.

I guess none of us Germans here in the forum are CCC-related.
Maybe we need some official representants for these jobs.
If you are German, pretty please send an email to vorstand@ccc.de? EDIT: Fix spelling.

retard - cause to move more slowly or operate at a slower rate; "This drug will retard your heart rate"
meaning... using a bitcoin based dns will be slow to adopt
Not really. Since, 144 blocks were generated each day in the bitcoin network, this mean 7200 addresses that can be assigned a domain name. Plenty, if you asked me.

|
|
retarded means "slowed" which ironically is the case here
|
|
|
Calling something retard and having no substance to back it up is not a good argument.

So, have we reach a decision making point on backup?
I think the consensus is:
1. Offsite backup, encrypted. Keys held by elder members.
Nice to have.
1. Failover solution. Some way to get the forum back up and running.
