indiancandy1: i kind of look like a romani gypsy
indiancandy1: can i ask something does the crystall ball thing actually work
indiancandy1: i just thought u know bill clinton did it so
mircea_popescu: indiancandy1 i have a normal phone
mircea_popescu: i'd rather do both of these well than mix them together into an unworkable porridge of shit.
mircea_popescu: i don't like them
mircea_popescu: did i just win like .87 btc ?
mircea_popescu: or, alternatively, buenos aires. which is why i moved here, to troll b-a
mircea_popescu: mthreat "i have 2 flash my gash 4 cash" ?
indiancandy1: i have 2 flash my gash 4 cash
mircea_popescu: i dunno, they're god-awful
asciilifeform: http://demotivators.to/media/posters/1990/622228_luchshe-starenkij-tt-chem-dzyudo-i-karate.jpg << 'Лучше старенький ТТ чем дзюдо и карате' ~= 'better have an old TT, than judo and karate'
indiancandy1: i wonder what assange thinks of btc
punkman: if I pick the favored side by total btc in the pot, then pending gain goes to -1.43 BTC
punkman: yep, http://i.imgur.com/B4bugC5.png
punkman: mircea_popescu: turns out I fucked up some math there, expected gain on pending bets is around 40%
hanbot: i'm sure it stinks, anyway.
mircea_popescu: holy shit man, why not just be on the ball and cut the deal when you have the chance ? why half ass that and then spend a month trying ? what sort of idiot came up with this strat i wish to know.
mircea_popescu: this has got to be the most idiotic publisher strat i ever encountered. so about a month ago, i shot an email to a medium sized network, for an ad spot. i got a reply from an acct manager, which was a little late and very half assed. i just dropped the thing. he sent me a couple "follow-up" emails later that week, which resulted in them being blacklisted.
thestringpuller: i need to stop binge watching netflix
hanbot: i'm rooting for a red card tonight
punkman: was just looking at this, f.mpif pc4 stands to make almost 10% (if favored side wins on pending bets): http://i.imgur.com/g5MPhbF.png
mircea_popescu: what am i confusing it with
mircea_popescu: i think you're right
mircea_popescu: cazalla: not sure wife would be here when i get back though :P << lol what, she got a nice big black fellow all lined up ?
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell punkman: mike_c would be nice if WoL could track bets on GoWs, since I already have an account for the minigame << actually, it'd be prolly good to have a YOU: summary on either side of GoW as long as the person is actually logged in. in case they bought multiple bids etc.
asciilifeform: so it's a reasonable presumption. no, i don't have the manual for the new one.
artifexd: If that is a pipeline, wouldn't that be too long to be performant? I mean, one missed branch prediction and you have to flush the whole thing.
hanbot: artifexd, actually, i've been trying to write.
artifexd: gribble lost me so I had to reauth
kyuupichan: BigBitz: No never heard of it. I used btctrip.com for flights for 2nd time without issue (bad experience with cheapair, though that seems unusual) and expedia for hotels.
kyuupichan: Sure, but I'm underweight fiat; would rather not spend it as not much left :)
kyuupichan: All I wanted to do was change a date. booking.com is far superior to expedia.com for that; you, uh, just change the date.
kyuupichan: Coordinating them and their payment processor (coinbase) was a PITA, particularly as I don't live in US so it was international phone calls. I'm not a fan of coinbase but to be honest they seemed to fix it, and they were the most helpful.
kyuupichan: Well they'd only just started taking BTC. Most of their sales reps had (still have) no clue. When asking about the refund, they said it'll be on credit card despite my having said half a dozen times I'd not used CC and paid with bitcoin. Clearly clueless.
kyuupichan: cazalla: Sure. Preference depends on circumstances. I'm overweight BTC; happy to drop a few now and then.
cazalla: meh i'd still use credit card if i was doing that
kyuupichan: I reckon I must be high on the Expedia list of bitcoin dudes using their service more than expected
cazalla: not sure wife would be here when i get back though :P
cazalla: i wanna piss off to angeles
kyuupichan: cazalla: Maldives; mentioned it a while ago. Not exactly cheap, as I discovered.
kyuupichan: I sense increasing govt apprehension abt BTC
punkman: ;;later tell mike_c would be nice if WoL could track bets on GoWs, since I already have an account for the minigame
dub: i realise that
mircea_popescu: lol so i peeled .33 off this satoshi dice clone thing
mircea_popescu: it all hinged on having something like bitbet's "omgwtfbbq i bet on winning side and lost!"
mircea_popescu: now i know it's gonna be successful.
dub: yeah I see it on the front page but nobody would land there surely?
dub: i cant see it
mircea_popescu: yeah, i see that.
mircea_popescu: you mean the plan i just discussed in a public chan ?
mircea_popescu: i really don't see a conflict.
benkay: well i've worked through these provisioners from top to bottom, and now it's time to test them all against some freshness
decimation: I guess they have only claimed to have sold 30k of the 144k
mircea_popescu: 2 hours later i am... where's that cat gif
mircea_popescu: i was like "why do i never receive altcoin summaries&updates ???" "because they are all exceedingly stupid" "no wai." "eta 2 hours"
benkay: yeah i now recall thinking to myself "myup. stop wasting time, kid."
mircea_popescu: jesus this darkcoin thing is more stupid than i had originally thought.
decimation: I suspect the "wealthy" half has most of their assets locked away in retirement plans, and most of those plans don't allow you to "invest" as you choose
BayAreaCoins: mircea_popescu Ok, I'll read into it and get it taken care of.
BayAreaCoins: mircea_popescu ya I'll get on that this week. I have a Thompson 1927-A1 coming in next week I can probably get listed and sold ASAP.
assbot: Bernie Mac I Ain't Scared of You Mofos - YouTube
BayAreaCoins: benkay excuse me for getting stoned. Gotta give me a min.. I go to bed and wake up everyday with my big boy spider man underware
BayAreaCoins: No breaks please. Bust my balls with full force. It is all good. mircea_popescu. Decimation I think there are a number of places that middle class americans already exchange BTC. I'm also not 100% convinced that is why I'm interested in what you guys have to say.
mircea_popescu: benkay i bet you 64.58.198.181 answers on all teh windows ports.
mircea_popescu: only took like 3 months or so i reckon
BayAreaCoins: lol happy to be the first :P... it's what I do ;)
mircea_popescu: i am not proposing to excuse the idiocy of the phb.
dub: i dont have a day job
mircea_popescu: the latter all started as in "here's my bright idea i came up with"
mircea_popescu: i miss herbi
BayAreaCoins: is what it is. I know where not to get clients for the offshore idea :P learned something haha
BayAreaCoins: mike_c I grew up on Battle.net (Blizzard Entertainment games) and I've always hung around successful people... so I don't mind getting my balls busted. It is good for me
BayAreaCoins: mircea_popescu I mean I ship my guns using FFL's and require permits to transfer snails across state lines :)
mircea_popescu: this is the lulziest shit i read all day,.
mircea_popescu: "However, I'm lucky enough to not have to have that worry/fear of my government because I don't involve myself with a number of business that one can choose to be involved in around BTC"
mike_c: i meant the bitcoin-assets stake currently being applied.
BayAreaCoins: mike_c Which stake are you talking about though, I generally have a number of them poking me :P
BayAreaCoins: mircea_popescu it is decentralized. Dunno what else I could have in regards to combating that.
mircea_popescu: <BayAreaCoins> I was talking about that human mine able one. Hopefully it doesn't turn into Child Slavery Sweatshop coin << srsly, "hopefully" is all you got ?
BayAreaCoins: dub That was a extreme event that was brought up by asciilifeform. I would venture to say that there is a market for people who are looking for privacy and the ability to store value where they want in the world.
BayAreaCoins: I have to be frank with you... this is more for people who are looking to get hit by some government entity such as PDR. I do keep my paper wallets in banks between California and Arkansas. However, I'm lucky enough to not have to have that worry/fear of my government because I don't involve myself with a number of business that one can choose to be involved in around BTC
BayAreaCoins: I believe it would need to be set up to were the client can instantly send the coins from anywhere in the world, but actually has to pick them up in person or have someone who is part of the "trust" pick them up. (in case the primary account holder dies ect.)
benkay: i'm just having the tiniest bit of trouble stitching this into something coherent.
BayAreaCoins: I believe a lack of laws will protect potential customers.
BayAreaCoins: Not that I've seen any confirmed cases of that, but it is a thought.
BayAreaCoins: Sadly you are going to have child labor in everything... all the way from making shoes to now mining. I don't think it can be avoided, but I think the game is swinging more toward bots... which obviously doesn't matter bot or not if it is a 5 year old running it.
benkay: <BayAreaCoins> I was talking about that human mine able one. Hopefully it doesn't turn into Child Slavery Sweatshop coin // how would it not?
BayAreaCoins: I was talking about that human mine able one. Hopefully it doesn't turn into Child Slavery Sweatshop coin :) I'm still waiting for Klu Klux Koin because I know it will get in a lot of peoples feelings :D
BayAreaCoins: and lol @ slavecoin too, I really hope it doesn't turn into that.
BayAreaCoins: Thank you kindly, I'm getting it worked out. Want a bitcent ;) lol
asciilifeform: and i leave for a day, and slavecoin (!) walks in ?
benkay: <BayAreaCoins> I like the mining structure and having potential to "create" jobs // oh god what is going on here
BayAreaCoins: What was your main bag that got you to that point of first retirement? I'm not trying to Q and A your ass of course
mircea_popescu: before that i was retired.
mircea_popescu: prior to that i ran romania's most read blog, a local digg like service (reddit wasn't really all that big yet).
BayAreaCoins: Feel free to tell me to get fucked, I was just wondering
BayAreaCoins: mircea_popescu what did you do prior to CryptoCurrencies? I assume you were successful prior?
BayAreaCoins: I believe she takes BTC and there are a few others too
