BTC-Mining: Win? Try "Dancing Mad".
Diablo-D3: HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE
Diablo-D3: "I used Bash for three years before learning about tab completion"
mircea_popescu: http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mb77t0ygoF1qfrvjzo1_500.png this is kinda win
mircea_popescu: "I want to write a simple program in python with two libraries, but one requires python2, and the other python3."
Azelphur: Diablo-D3: I like this subreddit xD
Diablo-D3: "I want to write a simple program in python with two libraries, but one requires python2, and the other python3."
mircea_popescu: "I was turned off by an otherwise-appealing open-source project after seeing that Zynga had contributed to it"
mircea_popescu: ya i was looking at that
mircea_popescu: hey, i got a bunch of addies in that list. go me.
Diablo-D3: so just buy up all the dmc on the market
BTC-Mining: I need something to buy...
Diablo-D3: might take quite a few months =/
Doffx: But then the .0034 bidwall got put up and fucked me.
mircea_popescu: a long, long time ago... but i can still remember
Doffx: I own 1 stock and I tried to sell it
Doffx: I left a long time ago
dub: not sure how anyone can stay at this point
Diablo-D3: some, some are jumping the entire market
Doffx: Well I'm sure of that.
Doffx: What happen with all the DMC drama anyhow.
mircea_popescu: then again smickles was trading .3 / 1.1 yest in spite of being worth ~1.x
Diablo-D3: ... they are 1btc each
guruvan: hmm...good point (can't as easily.....though it could happen, but then it's a game of who ever has the most funds wins)
mircea_popescu: in practice the later is usually only available to specialists or otherwise select players.
mircea_popescu: people who borrow shares on fixed time intervals can't.
mircea_popescu: well, the term "specialist" is a term of art.
guruvan: mircea_popescu: I've certainly seen money mangers get squeezed in the big markets....not often, but big when it happens
guruvan: oh, I'm sure THAT desire isn't lacking around here Smoovious
mircea_popescu: you're thinking retail investors.
guruvan: wouldn't take that much on GLBSE
guruvan: oh anything....since people mostly have to advertise the desire to borrow shares, a short squeeze seems like it would e easy if someone thought of it
guruvan: ya know mircea_popescu I'm surprised no one's tried a big short squeeze when they know someone has a big short
Doffx: I was hoping for more but at least the stock is stable
mircea_popescu: Doffx div was about .7% this month or so
femtotube: Doffx: maybe thy have not enough shares to pay better div. I know, I know, this is probably a bad joke for today :)
Doffx: Is the Gsdpt div pretty low? I was thinking it might reach 4% a month or so, buts its quite a bit lower than that. Less than 1%
BTC-Mining: Diablo-D3 can tell you
Bugpowder: all the buy back chatter sucking people in
Bugpowder: bad spot on the H20 absorbtion curve
dub: they're in SFPs (optical transcievers)
Bugpowder: what can you do with those?
Bugpowder: I have 2 Watt Ti-Sapphire lasers
rg: i had some 10mbit nics too
Bugpowder: I prefer to IRC from my browser window
dub: I like to IRC from a bnc terminator
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder me too.
Bugpowder: I might have used that many years ago
jcpham: i bouncer would blow your mind then Bugpowder
Bugpowder: but I will never get out of the F.GIGA.ETF panic sell hole
Bugpowder: Probably when I make some bitcoins on a trade
mircea_popescu: it's actually the french that are close to the romanians, or at least trying
jurov: be careful, romanians are quite close to french :)
dub: french too
dub: also, everyone hates the rench
dub: no, of all the arrogant knowitall assclowns that one holds itself in teh highest regard
dub: jurov: I'll take as many rolls as needed to print all of LoupGaroux, or whatever that fuckwits name is, posts
jurov: sorry that i don't have inkjet anymore... dunno how it would work with laser
rg: i bet that would sell
dub: just to say I had
dub: I once used a windows 3.x manual for toilet paper
jurov: good idea, i should offer it on bitmit.com "Toilet paper with btctalk thread of your choice"
jcpham: my ass is much tuufff
jcpham: i like t print out forum threads as toilet paper
dub: im just commenting that there are a large number of accusation threads that don't seem to have been actioned
dub: by undertaking to protect 'the community' in the manner then failing im pretty sure theymos, maged and any other staff are making scammers of themselves
mircea_popescu: i'm dead serious, too.
mircea_popescu: and in general... why do i care about all that crap ?
mircea_popescu: actually, mpex owned the romanian stock exchange on s.dice ipo day
mircea_popescu: in 1920 the argument that stagecoach was used for YEARS did what exactly ? cars win.
femtotube: is that bunch bigger, than GLBSE and all the others combined? What about daily turn over, market cap etc?
mircea_popescu: well obviously the obsolete version will have more years duh
femtotube: s.dice is a blockchain spamming web sire where pople gamble. Illegal probably too :)
BTC-Mining: That's exactly the problem. It's not Microsoft co or whatever. It's significantly more risky.
mircea_popescu: some people still stick to that junk
mircea_popescu: nyse is the antiquated version of mpex.
mircea_popescu: i fail to see the problem tho. dividends are a little above what is paid on nyse commonly.
femtotube: mircea_popescu: correct and that what i was trying to tell you
mircea_popescu: femtotube well, so thei did a 768 div month before that.
mircea_popescu: BTC-Mining the expected statistical yield for sept was ~420 iirc
mircea_popescu: if they make 200 btc a month in divs it will take ~15 years for the divs to accumulate to the level of their original investment.
BTC-Mining: 34.5K would need then 3.45k a year in divs for 10% or 287.5 BTC per month
femtotube: it will take
mircea_popescu: they'd likely get more. 200 was half the expected yield this month
femtotube: and this 34.5K BTC represents 10% of the Co?
mircea_popescu: 34.5k for 10% of the shares, yes
femtotube: the total ipo is 30K BTC yes (give or take)
femtotube: this is irrelevant and confuses the heck out of it
mircea_popescu: or at least that's what i got. but anyway
femtotube: forget that for now
mircea_popescu: BTC-Mining he asked how long does the guy take to make what the shareholders paid.
BTC-Mining: What's the 6 month you are talking about?
mircea_popescu: and on that 34.5k they realise through dividends about 15-20% a year.
femtotube: so, it takes 60 months
mircea_popescu: dude. he makes the whole net. he owns 9x% of the shares.
femtotube: them = the s.dice guy
mircea_popescu: who's "them" then ?
BTC-Mining: So 60 months it would take...
mircea_popescu: it would take them ~6 months
DeaDTerra: Okay, I am leaving now guys. Please keep a eye on the GBF thread and keep it calm and cilizied until I get back okay? :)
