a universal gift card could be created that used bitcoin backing
nubbins`: also keep in mind last line of article: "March is
a graveyard for restaurants."

a deal with Y and Z: if they accept X's gift certs, they'll be reimbursed.
nubbins`: this is what happens when you do people
a favor

nubbins`: just give em

a deterministic wallet

a few moments.
nubbins`: Chillum assbot's wot split from gribble's
a while back
Chillum: while the average rate of radioactive decay is predictable the actual moment of
a given decay is very uncertain
Chillum: one must run the same test many times on different data, only if
a test is failing reliably or more than likely by chance is there
a problem

a general share)

a torpor, only to be awoken later by the gummy bears. some of the hottest food ever.

a usg flea is really not all that much.
mircea_popescu: ey actually being moved around on the blockchain. Essentially, ChangeTip is
a Bitcoin-based startup that in no way utilizes Bitcoin, save for the fanatical frenzy of the community of bagholders.
mircea_popescu: More interestingly, ChangeTip doesn't even actually use Bitcoin -- it maintains
a centralized, internal ledger of "who" has "how many bits" and then, when the user is ready to cash out, pockets the ledger-balance of "bits" and delivers dollars to their banking account. At no point in the entire process is

a user ever actually have to touch bitcoin, and at no point in the entire process of tipping is any mon
