I don't really wanna waste anyone's time, but I've been trying to figure out the gitian build process lately and am having issues. I was following https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/gitian-building.md and everything was fine down to "Getting and building the inputs". For one I had to cd into ../bitcoin/ for there to be a contrib/gitian-build.sh file (not mentioned, but no biggie),
< kallewoof>
and secondly, it explodes messily when I run with the --setup flag. "lxcbr0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device [...]". Hints welcome.
< kallewoof>
I tried switching to br0 in gitian-build.sh. The system kind of dies (VirtualBox window still responds, but ssh stops working and eventually times out.. and `top` shows no process using CPU)..
< meshcollider>
yeah that's why I wrote my own script in the end, but I wonder if its possible to just delete those lines 178-184 completely from gitian-build.sh

hi Everyone
< Duvdevan>
I'm fairly new into bitcoin
< Duvdevan>
I have only one question
< Duvdevan>
can I use this code to modify it and run my own cryptocurrency?
< alephzero>
it is a ToS violation. if successful, they will get suspended.
< alephzero>
then after a period of time, you can take posession of that handle.
< alephzero>
somebody who has verifiable ties to bitcoin core project should file a claim.
< kinlo>
indeed
< instagibbs>
right now, someone can file saying "Actually I'm Core, take this down" and they're asking for things like business cards
< kinlo>
gmaxwell: maybe that should be you? you're part of the bitcoin core team now, right?
< alephzero>
instagibbs: somebody who runs bitcoincore domain and github should do the reporting
< instagibbs>
alephzero, agreed
< alephzero>
everyone else can click the report button. i have.
< alephzero>
do your part.
< gmaxwell>
Twitter apparently told us to go away when we reported before or something. :(
< alephzero>
I have successfully taken over impersonating accounts previously. but that was for a registered legal entity.
< alephzero>
can their subreddit be taken down for impersonation?
< alephzero>
that is against reddit's ToS as well.
< grubles>
you can report accounts for impersonation
< grubles>
(on twitter)
< grubles>
as in, if you aren't the account being impersonated
< midnightmagic>
Impersonation reporting for Twitter accounts that are impersonating you or your organization--including even if it is someone you are friend with, or a fan of, btw: https://support.twitter.com/forms/impersonation
< midnightmagic>
I would continue reporting them.
< alephzero>
you will have to supply proof you are being impersonated.
< alephzero>
i.e legal entity/pseudonym registration, plus some paperwork to prove ownership
< alephzero>
the best way would be to have whoever owns bitcoincore.org or a similar domain provide proof of that domains ownership, i think it will count as a registered pseudonym
< alephzero>
looks like it would have to be Wlad.
