bitcoinpete: fluffypony: http://imgur.com/a/lphHd << lmao. thx for this. hardest i've laughed in a while!
davout: I'D PLAY WITH THAT
mircea_popescu: davout indeed. i learn fast and permanently.
davout: mircea_popescu: lol didn't i show you this one ?
mircea_popescu: cause that's what i got on the first pass.
davout: i think they are fucking terrified
davout: no, because i read between the lines of that thing
mircea_popescu: i wonder what's next, we decide to confiscate all bitcoin owned by anyone involved with the french government ?
dub: I liked that park auctioning app from the valley
dub: i'd use uber
asciilifeform: incidentally, i recently read a hilarious book by a russian who drove a taxi in new york in the '70-'80s. 'желтые короли' ('yellow kings.' in english translation - which apparently exists - 'taxi from hell')
mircea_popescu: actualy, to put it in perspective, i've lived here for over a month, took > 100 rides, NEVER HAD TO CALL ONE.
mircea_popescu: i can tell you that uber has 0 chances in romania, because i've never had a taxi be over 5 minutes, nor did i ever have a problem getting lost items back
mircea_popescu: if there ever was a good signal to gtfo out of us stocks... i dunno what else it could be,.
mircea_popescu: i do not care what happens in the fiat world.

mircea_popescu: assbot: Kickstarter project spent $3.5M to finish a working prototypeand ended in disaster | Ars Technica << punkman to be fair, that's not really either important or making a lot of sense. sometimes prototypes fail, which is why they're called prototypes. i don't think you can find any item which didn't have millions "wasted" in prototyping
fluffypony: "Shut up there or i will fuck you in hole between buttocks."
mircea_popescu: "I will rape you fucking partridge. I am more legit then you. I am sure that your account is hacked and you are not the one you are trying to show. Shut up there or i will fuck you in hole"

fluffypony: I'm Riccardo with two c's (Italian) - Ricardo with one c is Spanish / Portuguese

TheNewDeal: that's what I figured as well
mircea_popescu: i have no idea how "draw" odds are supposed to work on all these betting sites tho. this is the wc final, wtf draw ?
mircea_popescu: which is an atrociously bad movie i had the misfortune to watch earlier.
TheNewDeal: can I get a period please, or a semicolon, or something of the like?
TheNewDeal: should have realized, https://imgflip.com/i/9iu9z
TheNewDeal: I actually didn't until saying sure, but still humorous nonetheless
TheNewDeal: just wondering about any resolution plans for http://bitbet.us/bet/951/ , as I'm tired of reading all the derp comments

asciilifeform: yes, i'm aware it is old news
HyperChetty: well I would wish disease on cPanel but it seems I am too late
mircea_popescu: i think he lives in hipstertown, 1 hip street.
mircea_popescu: actually i suppose every time someone discusses someone else's blogpost here that's peer review
