mircea_popescu: there are qualifications needed to be an observer. you don'
t become an observer of the battle of thermopylae just by stating yourself as an observer
mircea_popescu: that aside, there aren'
t really enough points given explicitly to make much of a call.
mircea_popescu: ah. well i wouldn'
t know "your" system. what you've written so far is coherent with naive nominalism, ie the ideology of all youths. occam requires it be described as such.
nubbins`: you can'
t claim to know a man's mind and not expect him to ask you to elaborate
mircea_popescu: you know this because i can enact my point in your system, but you can'
t enact your point in mine.
pankkake: that's why I don'
t like to order stuff outside of the EU :/
nubbins`: the postal clerk filled out all the customs forms for me. pretty sure they're all marked as "
t-shirt", gift, no cash value
nubbins`: never gonna get filled, that's just there to give people confidence that the ass isn'
t gonna fall out of it
nubbins`: received a large order of paper on friday, can'
t wait to start testing it out
nubbins`: printed them, yes. didn'
t design the image
Jere_Jones: And, as far as I can tell, there aren'
t any real good options when it comes to banks.
Jere_Jones: Let's be clear, I don'
t want BoA to succeed *because* they are issuing mortgages to people who can'
t afford them. I want BoA to succeed *because* they have my money.
nubbins`: i don'
t think that many of the people bleating in the AM threads on btctalk have the same level of clarity
Jere_Jones: Don'
t get me wrong, I want ASICMiner to succeed. But I don'
t think the box is news.
mod6: but we wouldn'
t have a map in what to do, only what not to do.
mod6: one of these guys has a hardon for implemeting xrp with it directly instead of btc, can'
t shake him.
mod6: which, actually, im suprised there isn'
t any comments yet. despite mp asking for commentary...
benkay: but pankkake that doesn'
t prevent to corrupt innovate
pankkake: open source is already a protection against developers being corrupt. you don'
t have to have a fork of every open source software to keep the developers in check. that would be insane
skinnkavaj: pankkake: LTC is the first good copy cat of BTC. And like everyone know the first copycat always succeeds, while the others fail. Look at feathercoin, I don'
t see any future there.
pankkake: and feelings shouldn'
t have anything to do with that
pankkake: it's bitcoin for people who want to be early adopter or want to use their gaming pcs, which is bad enough. but even ignoring that, I don'
t see anything compelling
benkay: haven'
t you heard, it has mining for the undercapitalized
pankkake: and copying every bitcoin service isn'
t enough - why use it if it has no clear advantage?
pankkake: I mean it looks like there isn'
t even a web wallet
nubbins`: and i haven'
t even had to skip a meal yet
mircea_popescu: benkay okay, but something has to be something or not be something at some point. otherwise we can'
t have a conversation at all, outside of ∀ = ∀
benkay: can'
t have a reasonable conversation in black and white, mp.
pankkake: painting wasn'
t always art, it was mostly used because we didn'
t have cameras yet
benkay: my point is that rap isn'
t art. it's a product manufactured for americans.
mircea_popescu: lol. ok, the point here is that while it'd be hard to argue dali wasn'
t an artist, it's well established he was a capitalist whore
benkay: you can'
t expect me to have opinions about real art like dali
Vp7771: wasn'
t there supposed to be an announcement of a big customer besides mpesa?
deadweasel: 'You don'
t know neobee!!!?? Fooooooool! You so dumb!'
BingoBoingo: Yeah, I can'
t wait till skinnkavaj skins his dick and wears it like a sock for LTC
nubbins`: doesn'
t mean my wife should put 911 on speed-dial
kakobrekla: There is a myth about how you should never use soap on cast iron. Details on that below. The reality is that you can use soap on cast iron, but it is better if you didn'
t.
ASIVI_: Guys, currently the main issue I'm having with BTC company stocks is that the stock market is unregulated, therefore very risky. How do you ensure you won'
t be just ripped off? How do you deal with this?
bloctoc: can'
t find install instructions in the readme for one. after finding launch.sh from a post months ago, it crashes on some missing dependency but I didn'
t see a list of deps in the readme I'm not asking for help, just answering the question. I'm sure greyhawk will be there once I get the thing running.
bloctoc: yes - isn'
t greyhawk the old dude from eulora that sounds like uncle jessie?
BingoBoingo: LTC might have hope if the wrong kind of people weren'
t shilling it
pankkake: most people defending ripple don'
t understand it and just want to sell their overpriced XRP
skinnkavaj: If it wasn'
t for hiring MPOE-PR as staff I wouldn'
t bash on mircea_popescu for having bad security
mircea_popescu: KRS1 ltc around 1 usd ain'
t hurting anything. on the contrary, puts the greenback in its proper perspective.
mircea_popescu: if you don'
t, you don'
t, we all agree, nobody cares. move on.
pankkake: another issue is that you don'
t need a lot of volume to make those things move (perhaps restrict to a minimum volume)
mircea_popescu: you don'
t see any of the ~20k english words outside of the "retard 200" used often in covernsation.
nubbins`: you don'
t see the word "niggardly" used often in conversation
pankkake: I don'
t like the buckling springs
mircea_popescu: anyway, you don'
t HAVE to underwrite options, you can pretty much cover all strategies simply buying
benkay: mircea_popescu: is it true that exercises aren'
t assigned until end of month?
mike_c: no, you won'
t. that's my issue.
mike_c: um, last time you just said it "wasn'
t standard"
skinnkavaj: Didn'
t MPOE get hacked recently and burnside humilated MPOE-PR in forums?
mike_c: and it hasn'
t sold to the panamanians.
jurov: don'
t forget ugliest broker interface!
nubbins`: honestly thought this one would end up going the other way. this is why i don'
t gamble much
nubbins`: mp may be the only man who has (a) never had a job and (b) never worn a
t-shirt

t write to tty, it waits and stops everything :(

t have your beard level yet
pankkake: I haven'
t shaved in a month or so
nubbins`: okay, can someone recommend a full album that would be appreciated by someone who isn'
t fucked on drugs at a rave?
pankkake: the guy can'
t make a post with any beggining of sense
nubbins`: also preferably something they wouldn'
t play at a dance club
nubbins`: washed up, trite shitheads who haven'
t had a good album in like 20 years
nubbins`: does anyone who doesn'
t have shit taste in music want to recommend a full album for me to listen to while printing?
nubbins`: i don'
t think i can eat food without it touching the sides of my mouth
Namworld: I don'
t even have to eat one, just someone biting in one beside me makes me shiver.
