mircea_popescu: i don't see what needs
to be argued really. pretty clear as it is.
mircea_popescu: he has
the power
to write
the contract.
that means
the contract is constructed always against him.
mircea_popescu: this is how you split
things : one person cuts
the other person picks.
Jackmaninov: and
that's what's been hilarious, everyone arguing about all
their own disfavourable constructions all week all over every discussion method
mircea_popescu: otherwise, most disfavourable construction supported by
the statement prevails.
mircea_popescu: this "plans change" doesn't fly.
the only way it can change is if he says he starts monday and finishes friday
Jackmaninov: so instead, if he's paying anyone at all, he's going
to pay
them all in one
transaction or something
Jackmaninov: i still expect someone would
try
to sue him, especially if
they can point
to concrete money
they "should" have made in
the market
rg: not worry about
the btc price
rg: his responsibility is
to pay
the people he owes
rg: he didn't ask you
to create passthrough bonds and sell
them
Jackmaninov: and for example, how many people would be pissed if PPTA-E were paid out before
TYGRR-P, and so
the people paid first could go buy up unpaid bonds and make a killing?
rg: he doesnt have
to say specific info
Jackmaninov: right, but
there are a lot more opportunities for other people
to game
the market with any info he releases
rg: he hasnt said more
than a few vague sentences
rg: with what i knew / what was happenin / what was going
to happen
rg: i updated
the website main page every hour
mircea_popescu: Jackmaninov from what i recall he said he will
take
the weekend off,
then start paying on monday and BE DONE by now. oldest accts first.
rg: its like when
that RAID controller died in
the BitVPS server
Jackmaninov: and he mentioned monday, so I suspect he was going
to pay out from
this past monday
to monday next week
mircea_popescu: <rg> he's still acted very unprofessional << i heard
this myself.
Jackmaninov: pirate said it was going
to
take him a week
to pay out
rg: its probably an amazingly difficult
task
rg: i
try
to put myself in his shoes
rg: mircea was
telling me i was going
to ruin
the IPO
rg: i
took
them for a good amount
too
gigavps: they didn't
tell you
that!
gigavps: rg, i
took SD for 800 btc in 24 hours
rg: but i also
think
they gave it back
the next day
gigavps: why not just sell
the site?
rg: they have stuff posted like
the made 2000 BTC in one day
gigavps: also,
their valuation of
the site is a
tad bit high
gigavps: it's a very good question
that is not answered
rg: i guess
they're doing it
to get a story in an EU magazine
gigavps: it makes me really wonder why a business
that is supposed
to be profitable and running is in need of OPM
rg: anyone else
think of anything relevant
to
tell mr jiggavps?
rg: i
think
that's about it
gigavps: i'm not really interested in
their IPO
rg: gigavps: satoshidice IPO goes live
tonight at 12gmt
rg: the supreme dream
team
rg: and
the man of
the hour
rg: i want
to get an asian bitvps node
EskimoBob: and people are actually buying
that crap for quick in-out :)
EmanuelDeOrtego: Whenever you get
the chance, approve
that IPO at your leisure.
Diablo-D3: rg: its made by
the same guy
that did pork.swf
rg: ive never seen
that look at my horse
thing
rdponticelli: glbse really, really needs
to offer at least some signed proof of holdings
to users
rg: i
think its much faster
mircea_popescu: well in
the positive,
the response
time HAS in fact improved dramatically nao.
rg: nope. DeaDTerra is me and i just
trolled everyone
mircea_popescu: dude i dunno, i just went
to check on DeaDTerra's fund
thingee
rg: this isnt a good
theme song
rg: how about katy perry -
teenage dream
rg: you can make it loop in
the backgroun
rg: what's
the MPEX
theme song
rg: BTCHero: and you can live in
the house until you sell it
BTCHero: and
the greatest part is even if i fuck up somehow,
the people
that loaned
to me have a house
that i can sell off. So
their risk is whatever i lose on buying/selling
the house
rg: you're saying
tv isnt real
rg: this is
too much
to handle right now
rg: THERES A SHOW ON
TV CALLED FLIP MEN
mircea_popescu: BTCHero maybe it's worth spending a few hours
to write
this out.
BTCHero: until, i can get enough equity in it
to pay back
the btc people with a mortgage
mircea_popescu: something like
this would be a great
thing
to offer btc price some anchoring
rg: youd need an emergency fund for repairs if you were planning
to landlord
rdponticelli: BTCHero: somebody has made such a proposal on
the forum...
rg: youd keep most of
the money in USD anyway
BTCHero: because if i borrowed all
the btc at 10 and it went
to 20 i would have
to pay back 150k instead of 75k
BTCHero: i get money, i buy houses I rent
them out and mortgage
them off and pay back
BTCHero: I would really like
to setup a fund
to buy houses with, but
the currency risk of btc is
too high. if it went up i wouldn't be able
to payback
rg: i
think hes asking you what you ordered and how much
rdponticelli: nefario: How long should
take for a orden
to show up?
