Why?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5_Whys Now for a catch-22.. Why is there no such thing as a stupid question?

BitMessage on the CLI

https://github.com/Dokument/PyBitmessage-Daemon https://bitmessage.org/wiki/Compiling_instructions#Download_and_run_PyBitmessage

sudo apt-get install python openssl git python-qt4 … Download the source code from github: git clone https://github.com/Bitmessage/PyBitmessage $HOME/PyBitmessage Run PyBitmessage: ~/PyBitmessage/src/bitmessagemain.py If you receive a warning that you need to use python 2.7.5 or greater, and have followed the above instructions to upgrade it, your system may be attemping to run PyBitmessage with python 3.

PyBitmessage requires PyQt unless you want to run it as a daemon and interact with it using the API. You can download PyQt from http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/download or by searching Google for ‘PyQt Download’. If you want to run in daemon mode, see https://bitmessage.org/wiki/Daemon

Error message: No module named PyQt4

Then follow these instructions: https://bitmessage.org/wiki/Daemon Result: screenshot_142 An interesting POC Vanity address generator (singlethreaded, written in Python, don’t expect much): https://bitmessage.org/forum/index.php?topic=1727.0

DOGECOIN IS COMING TO MULTIPOOL

Better late then never. The gold rush window is slightly out of focus already but since DOGE hasn’t hit an exchange yet, there is still time to profit.

A note: you can compile torsocks in a VM like virtualbox and edit /usr/local/etc/torsocks.conf to point to the tor daemon running on the host. In VBox’s NAT networking mode the host can be accessed through the gateway IP.

Fixing mIRC's broken ping implementation

https://github.com/tannn/TriviaTime/pull/147 Apparently mIRC doesn’t respond to ping messages over a certain length. This is the first part of the problem. According to http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/rfc/ctcpspec.html

The querying client can then subtract the recieved timestamp from the current time to obtain the delay between clients over the IRC network.

The client sending the ping will do Current Time - Timestamp that it sent out (which is echoed by the target of the ping) , so it can send the ping payload in any format it finds convenient. All we have to do is:

The replying client sends back an identical message inside a notice: 01PING timestamp01

So add this to the top of your Remote script….

1
ctcp 1:ping:/raw NOTICE $nick : $+ $chr(1) $+ $1- $+ $chr(1)

Perfect. A better ping script that will display ping replies in miliseconds: http://www.mircscripts.org/showdoc.php?type=code&id=1102
