furuknap: Bad doesn't even start to cover it.
mircea_popescu: Willdude123 don't panic. being young is good enough.
jurov: Willdude123: basically you don't have to cope with emotions and ego on wikipedia (or you can pretend not to)
WILLdude: But dammit, I don't think there is any way really to sell btc for gbp. No exchanges do bank deposits.
WILLdude: Don't know if I should go to a slightly more expensive exchange or to reinvest.
aknap3: if you didn't, then yes, you are very fucked
WILLdude: And since I can't actually get any way to efficiently sell my BTC, I'm fucked.
jborkl: I can not even understand the logic of Ripple anyway. Bob can't pay mcdonalds, so he exchanges a IOU with Mary who has a trust level with Tim
deadweasel: She can't sail, but she's willing to try, that's a plus.
deadweasel: could entreprenuer doesn't meanshit unless you get a company to pay for putting them on 'the cloud'
louong: seriously, why isn't there an mpcoin yet?
benkay_: but then they couldn't print their way out of their problems.
benkay_: can't help but assume he's operating out of some mob bakery
mircea_popescu: this is the purpose of "regulation", and this is why it ain't happening here.
deadweasel: she hasn't gotten laid in 40 years!
ThickAsThieves: [14:01] <Diablo-D3> so wtf is with the am div <<< Haven't you heard, I needed to buy some new toys
deadweasel: WILLdude: you can fix fat, but you can't fix "I never had sex with teenage girls, now it's too late".
benkay_: negligible amouts, tat. don't promulgate that shit.
WILLdude: I'm too fat, I wouldn't be able to see anything interesting.
WILLdude: But I guess I don't need the money.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=120757.msg1650360#msg1650360 can you believe he still didn't add it ? :D
jborkl: it is, sometimes it is a wonder that they don't short out the keyboard drooling on it
WILLdude: I want one, but it probably isn't economical.
WILLdude: I still don't really understand, because from the div history, the dividend seems to be the total divided by the number of shares, which is not constant.
WILLdude: The ones on Havelock haven't been just yet.
jcpham: my dad didn't know about the computers
jcpham: guys working where they shouldn't
mircea_popescu: well presumably because only a variable fraction of the ttoal is passthrough't there
BitHub: but trust don't erally mean anything look at ziggap
BitHub: i store coins for mainstream clients atm, but i only store them, i don't gamble them or anything like an investment bank would
ThickAsThieves: I don't have enough spare BTC to pay out super early this time
mircea_popescu: don't expect any of it back in any shape or form and you'll be even better.
Luke-Jr: wasn't in a hurry
Luke-Jr: b0n1: it wasn't too bad, but I took my time going through it
Luke-Jr: I raised my limits to $10k, so $30 isn't so much
WILLdude: It wasn't really a question.
WILLdude: I presume the divs haven't been announced yet6.
Luke-Jr: anyhow, I don't see how spending the income from that on other ASICs is in any way bad
Luke-Jr: I can't say I'm surprised if it just died
jurov: ThickAsThieves: I can argue that if you exclude whalespotting between dec 2012 and march 2013 the sd picture isn't so clear
BitHub: any idea when they'll be ready? id like to preorder like 100 but don't want to wait a few years for them
Luke-Jr: Chaang-Noi: Sonny didn't elaborate.
Luke-Jr: BitHub: they weren't
BitHub: using the bfl that butterfly labs gave you to buy asicminer gear isn't very ethical
ThickAsThieves: I didn't also list BTC/USD rates within the post
mircea_popescu: Luke-Jr he probably wasn't in the bfl booth ?
Luke-Jr: Chaang-Noi: I didn't see you at the conference!
parseval: Yeah, I asked in the IRC once but he wasn't there at the time. I need to be more persistent
TradeFortress: But isn't there already one..
parseval: I don't store the data historically, and only poll the API every 10 minutes or so to be a friendly API consumer
mircea_popescu: KRS-1 why, you don't date around there ?
mircea_popescu: ya well we don't do that entire iran thing in europe.
mircea_popescu: well most women aren't particularly interested in going to clubs
mircea_popescu: but anyway : i don't see any serious flaw in it, have the guy explain exactly wtf he wants it to be used as or w/e.
TradeFortress: yes, I might lose my default trust status if theymos doesn't like it
TradeFortress: can't -1, it's positive feedback or scammer (-4)
mircea_popescu: then +1 the few people who actually aren't idiots in there
mircea_popescu: i don't see anything massively wrong with it tbh.
TradeFortress: mircea_popescu, but for people who don't change defaults there's just one rating
mircea_popescu: anyway, if it's 3 it will diverge rapidly, there won't really be a global rating.
TradeFortress: 95% of forum users won't change defaults through, so there is kinda a global rating.
mircea_popescu: i don't have an acct. pastebin that page please ?
TradeFortress: If I rate someone, it shows up as +1 or what, if smoothie rates someone it doesn't count
TradeFortress: Other user's feedback aren't shown by default. theymos did obviously
mircea_popescu: but you didn't code it or anything ?
mjr_: i was like, why isn't litecoin here? or namecoin
jurov: OP REPLIED TO ME "someone don't know the difference between turnover/revenue and share price"
ericmuyser: i don't like how blockchain.info shows transactions in USD.. trying to get away from this and anyway can't search for a BTC amount on the page wtf?
dub: I actually didn't want to punch mjr in the face after watching that
burnside: If it went at trade execution then it wouldn't have the intended effect
mircea_popescu: it ha sexactly the lack of byte you'd expect from two lezbos named julia that failed in ny and so moved t la
mircea_popescu: nah this isn't it sadly.
mircea_popescu: I ended up losing lots of BTC at BTCJam.com, thinking that loans are "safe". That's a holdover from the physical, regulated banking world. Not true here. I'm actually a fairly good judge of "character", so I didn't lose all, as I saw that many did there. But I did lose about 30% of what I loaned out. The site itself is fairly good, but the "borrowers" are often not...
dub: my peers are people that don't sit on the internet all day to pick out the good stuff
mircea_popescu: dude, it's cool but don't go to retardspots.
dub: bitcointalk is why I don't talk to my peers about bitcoin
ThickAsThieves: it won't accept 4 figures
mircea_popescu: on the other hand no matter what you do you don't go into telling users how to use your output.
mircea_popescu: and i raged at the dev team for behaving idiotically. if you're blind you don't run and if you don't comprehend your code you don't add more. this on one hand
mircea_popescu: understand : going fishing is a process directed AT THE FISH. you don;t care about the sea.
mircea_popescu: it's just there so you have a reference for your thoughts. it doesn't put thoughts in your head.
mircea_popescu: a trust system is a notation, like paper. it won't do your work for you in any circumstance.
ThickAsThieves: can't be what decide features
mircea_popescu: if you can't stop them all, then isn't an infinity the best solution ?
mircea_popescu: isn't it ideal for noobs to be deluged in fake trust nuggets ?
mircea_popescu: the -dev people have it aliased as trolltalk. i don't give a shit about what they sasy there, any more than reddit or w/e
ThickAsThieves: Dub, if btctalk doesnt allow Trust to actually be trustworthy, people won't trust it
mircea_popescu: consequently... who cares. another web thing that doesn't work.
mircea_popescu: dub i don't have a problem with it specifically because they don't call it wot anything
mircea_popescu: that doesn't sound like a hoster at all anyway
Namworld: We still have occasional DDoS attacks. And we basically can't deal with them.
Namworld: We can't afford DDoS protection. Not for the price we get on those VPSes
Namworld: I can't do an ounce of sysadmin work. I jumped in to protect my large stake in BitVPS before RG left.
jurov: oh i didn't actually fled, got kicked promptly "we aren't that king of hosting"
jurov: yes. they weren't willing to do that, just did nothing and waited for mp's deadline to expire
Willdude123: Cause we don't
jurov: i don't think it will crash soon... unless some shinier object appears
FabianB_: the basics aren't hard
FabianB_: doesn't look like they tell any details on how they think it could work
chmod755: well, actually i wouldn't call it a scam - it's just a FED replacement (debt based, central authority thing)
