t appreciate soft tits enough anymore, it's all about the android metallic look
mod6: let us not forget there were at least 2 other assets listed at mpex where mp wasn'
t involved in the direction or operations of the company that are now no longer listed (s.bvps & s.dice)
Duffer1: i believe the point being made by kako is that it doesn'
t matter
VanCleef: well at least mpex didn'
t pull off a scam like bitfunder did
pankkake: actually, as an investor, I don'
t want to be along the dumb ones
VanCleef: because it doesn'
t have any volume
VanCleef: but i wouldn'
t list it on mpex
Vexual: didn'
t he try and get a lift to the airport with kramer?
pankkake: you weren'
t sentenced to be his butler?
Vexual: isn'
t it if i crash my motorcycle it's pretty much my fault?

t ciphermine be open already N

t. nerds especially.

t had the capital to buy apartments/multifamily.
diametric: mircea_popescu: got the latest s.nsa logo by chance? just want to do some test rasters, doesn'

t to be final.
the20year2: Whenever i can get a house that isn'
t in town, i'm gonna try a solar trough steam system
nubbins`: platinum is one thing i don'
t hold
the20year1: IE 1 american penny from 1900 continues to hold similar buying power 113 years later. a quarter from 1964 has equal buying power to what it did at tha
t time
nubbins`: an ounce of steel isn'
t worth too much ;p
the20year1: Bank notes can'
t compare in any way to the value of coins. Unlike paper currency , the lions' share of coins in most developed countries hold value, that is till they debased in the cesspool
the20year1: Which means there's phenominal demand, those coins aren'
t sold outside of Canada, have extremely strict limits, and still sell out in virtually hours each time a new one is released
the20year1: I don'
t know if you track the spread, but *most* of those coins are in so high demand the spread is anywhere from 10% to 40% over face value
nubbins`: they don'
t just purchase loose coins off the street
nubbins`: Vexual: well, when the value explodes in the future, you can'
t just sell your gallium coins to samsung or w/e
the20year1: because your bank realized they can make money on it....they don'
t buy it for retail, nor do they hold it as a reserve
nubbins`: people don'
t realize that a lot of these places don'
t really have stock on-hand waiting to ship
nubbins`: but you can only buy those through resellers. they don'
t sell them directly to the public.
nubbins`: they weren'
t kidding about the bust
nubbins`: i mean, i've even got pgp-signed docs from casascius with md5 checksums of scans of the coins he sent me... but that doesn'
t stop me from making fakes with the same addresses
Duffer1: can'
t afford newsgroups atm >.<
mircea_popescu: sophocles is perhaps a little hermetic if you don'
t understand the context
Duffer1: though i do have sophacles on my shelf i haven'
t been able to bring myself to open it
Duffer1: if it's over 100yo and not plutarch or shakespeare then i probably haven'
t read it

t get too far in life w/o rabelais and boccaccio etc
Duffer1: don'
t get me started on american "education"
Duffer1: 16th french fantasy doesn'
t come up often :P
mircea_popescu: Duffer1 notrly. they don'
t do nearly enough sex to make the cut as a rule.
pankkake: I hope it didn'
t annoy the neighbors too long…
Neil: Though he doesn'
t mention the 2015 block peculiarity
Neil: Wouldn'
t be surprised to see 2bn difficulty bet could get to 1500 total. Would that be a record?
Duffer1: i don'
t see how it will be used for anything other than scamming
mircea_popescu: KRS1 "yet another tranny thinking he's a woman / guy with dreamweaver thinking he's a coder / guy with a student loan thinking he's a financier making some dumbass social platform tht won'
t go anywhere and he won'
t stop talking about"
Duffer1: decimation yea knc will deliver, just don'
t buy any more
Neil: Apocalyptic: Miners don'
t know when they got the one that solved it? I'm sure they do.
Neil: But then what would they be paying miners with? A miner would notice he got a block and the pool didn'
t claim it, at some point.
Neil: mircea_popescu: Then the pool payouts wouldn'
t match contributed hashrate.
Neil: ThickAsThieves: ghash.io is part itself (cex?) and part individual miners. They could move their own hashing to appear anon. Can'
t do that with external miners to the pool I think.
Neil: Don'
t understand your 2nd sentence?
KRS1: Rates you just can'
t refuse.,
pankkake: I couldn'
t care less about thickness
jurov: Maybe, don'
t know.
Vexual: we don'
t even know if that cypher is cracked yet...
nubbins`: wouldn'
t mind one of those silver rounds, altho the two descriptions can'
t even agree on the purity
nubbins`: well sure, but i didn'
t expect el reg to be so vulgar
nubbins`: i was going to say "because havelock doesn'
t make them easy to find", but the prospectus is linked in the first paragraph of the overview
nubbins`: so essentially you wouldn'
t trust any private keys generated by it
nubbins`: well, an ass wouldn'
t leave fingerprints
Vexual: at the very least you won'
t pay fees
Vexual: didn'
t he once go by big dick john ore some such?
Duffer1: italian doesn'
t have j, k, y, x, y analogs
jurov: and if there aren'
t passthroughs because nobody wants to run them, then it just proves my point
jurov: it isn'
t worth (or at least a priority) for me, sorry.
jurov: Vexual: if the stock won'
t pay more dividends than above in 2 years, is it worth it?
BingoBoingo: Just remember we don'
t know if overstock.com is scamzors or not
BingoBoingo: As asciilifeform hit on earlier though, if you aren'
t from the communist bloc, you aren'
t a scary opponent
BingoBoingo: Maybe truffles Or maybe I jsut don'
t liek mother fuckers who try to save face with lies, you know liek how TradeFortress tried
BingoBoingo: I am also sorry if I couldn'
t find a faster checkmat in that position
BingoBoingo: truffles: This is why IRC kicks the ever living shit out of websites that pretend to d things and don'
t actually
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: just remember we don'
t use overstock.com until they show they aren'
t scam
BingoBoingo: 1. d4 BTW I will hate myself if you don'
t answer with d5 c6 and still win
BingoBoingo: ...Right now, I really don'
t know, But I know one thing."
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Well from conversations earlier 10 BTC prizes aren'

t too much scam
KRS1: cardano isn'
t even insured
BingoBoingo: truffles: Humans don'
t do good random moves

t actually work from very different principles at the moment which is why Fruit will open with 1. f3 a disappointing number of times
BingoBoingo: truffles: asciilifeform is saying a human can'
t lose to an RNG, a specific type of machine
BingoBoingo: His entire brand nao is pretty much built on the fact he doesn'
t play
BingoBoingo: It will be insured too. If the potatos don'
t grow I'll buy some at the store.
