mircea_popescu: i've paid
taxes in maybe
twenty jurisdictions so far, i don't see why anyone could claim i have anything
to do with
them.
mircea_popescu: if you're not a citizen and are paying
taxes i dun care, you're not liable.
BTC-Mining: Since when will any government anywhere accept
to
take citizenship back and accept you stop paying any
taxes?
Tough luck on getting
that
through.
BTC-Mining: Except
that doesn't really work
that way...
mircea_popescu: you don't have
to move. you just send
them your citizenship in
the mail and be done with it.
BTC-Mining: Unless everyone lived in
their own one-man nation.
BTC-Mining: I don't see how you could reasonably expect someone who object
to any single law in a country
to be able
to move somewhere
that has no rules
they disagree with.
BTC-Mining: Depends on
the individual. Most people in every country pays
taxes. Doesn't mean
they all support 100% of
the state.
mircea_popescu: seems
to me if you pay
the mob boss you're in
the mob, whether you *claim* disagreement or not.
BTC-Mining: Well
that would be something applied
too broadly... Not everyone in
the US agree with
the US.
mircea_popescu: listen, if you're part of some mob cause "you grew up into it" you still go
to jail.
mircea_popescu: people
that dare organise into such a state are hostes humani gener
BTC-Mining: Eh, "americans" are just born in
the US, not a direct cause of everything
that happens in
the US
mircea_popescu: no it's not. it's perfectly commensurate with
the offence.
BTC-Mining: Are you sure you aren't part of
the problem?
BTC-Mining: [03:10] <mircea_popescu> it is now a crime
to be american.
BTC-Mining: Well, you seem
to be overreacting
to laws being
too broad in
the US by creating another broad law:
mircea_popescu: can go hang out with gabon, sierra leone and
the rest.
mircea_popescu: it also explains why
the united states has no room and no place in civilised society.
BTC-Mining: Although
the problem of "broad/uncomprehensible laws" has been quite an issue globally, in many nations.
BTC-Mining: The website summarize
the issue nicely.
BTC-Mining: Many regulations are made by expert in
their fields but who have poor or no understanding of criminal law and it's intent.
BTC-Mining: Also, did you know
that
those muppets might be making some of
the criminal laws? Not all laws are voted by
the representatives.
mircea_popescu: fucking muppets ranting on about what
the sec bla bla ?
BTC-Mining: I
think
the crime here is politicians rushing
through new laws for
their public opinion.
BTC-Mining: But
the zergling is all cuddly, grabbing you and nibbling at your internal organs.
mircea_popescu: a. i am going
to pluck any bird i feel like ; b. i am going
to make soup out of any
turtle i get my hands on.
Diablo-D3: no, I paid other people
to do
that
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: does
the bitcoin community really remind you of
the pre-September internet?
dub: Downvote My Comments, no
thats his hn
BTC-Mining: way before
the website or pirate defaulted...
BTC-Mining: yeah, but last
transactions dates from March 2012...
thestringpuller: (I keep
thinking DMC stands for
the Delorean Motors Company)
Diablo-D3: noagendamarket: not at all, he didn't
think
the rest of
the community could pony up
the cash
Diablo-D3: thestringpuller: smickles didnt want
to invest in dmc
thestringpuller: smickles: yes
that do, but
they also
think
that if 15-20% of
the companies
they invested in give
them
that ROI it's a "good year"
Diablo-D3: theres _no one_ in
the bitcoin community who knows what
they're doing
Diablo-D3: smickles:
theres a few
that are fucking retarded, but
they're known
smickles: lol, Diablo-D3 don't vc firms look for 15x
their original investment in 1 year?
Diablo-D3: not a bunch of fucking aspies flailing
their arms because
they invested in something
they didnt understand wouldnt pay out
their original investment for 2+ years
Diablo-D3: not
that Im going
to, but if I ever start another company, Im only going
to deal with professional VC firms
Diablo-D3: but everyone decided
to just be a bunch of faggots, so fuck it
Diablo-D3: we could have mined everyone else under
the
table
Diablo-D3: the irony is DMC's plan made
that moot
smickles: thestringpuller: coinbr is probably for you
then
Diablo-D3: every company Ive
tried
to invest in so dmc can get
there faster has pretty much fucked us one way or another
thestringpuller: I'll be patient and wait for more companies
to ipo on mpex before I invest in an account
Diablo-D3: thestringpuller: yes,
thats my reason
to shut dmc
Diablo-D3: [12:41:13] <thestringpuller> Everyone is closing
their doors cause no one
trusts anyone
thestringpuller: smickles: I'm not
that good ;) I would have
to have help for sure.
smickles: thestringpuller: well,
to justify 30 btc, you'd probaby have
to use margin and make a good call, eh?
Diablo-D3: smickles: but our
tiny little backwoods wall street wannabe is dead
thestringpuller: smickles: not yet even
though I could drop
the cash on it I can't warrant
the expenditure if I can't be sure I'll make
the money back
smickles: thestringpuller: do you have an mpex account?
they're expensive, although i
thing coinbr.com setup a brokerage site for mpex
thestringpuller: heh "Bitcoin is in fact first and foremost a wonderful community of highly skilled, intelligent and open minded people which
tearfully reminds one of
the old days of
the pre-September Internet." heh
thestringpuller: I might as well just make a business instead of
trying
to bu y one
Azelphur: I lefe
things behind all
the
time
Azelphur: talking
to yourself like a pro
there :p
Azelphur: smickles: have you heard
the zeekrewards and BS&T rumors?
smickles: yeah, not
that i know exactly what we're liquidating at, but buying SS @ 2.5 is probably a loss
noagendamarket: imagine if you burnt your workplace down and asked
the boss for your wages still lol
smickles: heh, mpex is either options, or hardly anything else, but better anything else
than glbse had
Azelphur: as much as I'd like
to sell SS shares right now, gotta
tell it like it is lol
Azelphur: so A) GLBSE puts info out and
then you get bought out and it's over
smickles: thestringpuller: i'll be compiling
the next reports
tomorrow
Azelphur: I imagine it's not
too much of an alternative now, as soon as GLBSE puts out
the info it's shutting down anyway
smickles: then did a 100 for 1 split some
time later
Azelphur: thestringpuller: my history with SS is basically, I bought a buttload at launch at 1.0, sold em all for between 1.8 and 2.5,
then bought again at 2.0 in
the second issuance
