mircea_popescu: i hooked up my speaker

chetty: well I had silence too, before I hooked up the speaker for that

BingoBoingo: "Several years ago, I came across a ranking of careers based on overall desirability. "President of the United States" was somewhere in the lower-middle of the pack, because it offers the most power and prestige, but also has the highest workplace fatality rate, terrible job security, brutal hours, and relatively low wages given what presidential-type people could earn on the open market."

pankkake: one of the reasons I keep plenty of spare hardware

fluffypony: I had Quantum Bigfoot TX 6gb drives that lasted like 8 years or something ridiculous

fluffypony: I find modern desktop hardware incredibly finicky and unreliable

mircea_popescu: so i set up a new desktop system, works fine. i go to bed.

fluffypony: I vote for better, k thx

BingoBoingo: I guess I provide some a five minute warning on an announcement concerning the sitting on the hands matter

asciilifeform noticed that bird is still at work - and beginning to destroy expensive mosquito nets, tearing with beak, shitting continuously. i go out and set five mouse traps on its shit perch plank. two minutes later: unrelated bird whacked. i pick up carcass to throw to the kittehs, it comes back to life & rockets away, leaving glove full of feathers.

ThickAsThieves: well then i should stop imposing

jurov: and i have another project in the pipeline, too

ThickAsThieves: as much as i have spoken against colored coins, i have come around to seeing how they'll probably have a place

ThickAsThieves: just things to think about i guess

ThickAsThieves: those would be better example of what i mean for paths for CoinBr

ThickAsThieves: i dunno, like specialized stock charting

ThickAsThieves: well not quite what i meant, but i was forgetting you have that

jurov: i think of something like bitcoinica was, just done right and with delivery in euros (via x.eur)

los_pantalones: i may be able to help

ThickAsThieves: i dont see that as an early stage service to safely get into

jurov: that's something i need someone who has plenty of trade experience to help figure me out

ThickAsThieves: i'm not sure it'd be the solution at this time really

jurov: the thing i think would help most, would be to offer margin.. but i don't feel like going into such alone and did not find anyone suitable yet

ThickAsThieves: i see

ThickAsThieves: how are things going with CoinBr, if i may ask?

jurov: just soliciting ideas, i may feel ineffective if this keeps going on for longer time

ThickAsThieves: i think jurov is just expressing he feels ineffective

jurov: okay, so.. if the orderbook/volume keeps staying like this, i'll just get long

mike_c: <back on soapbox> if you have good shareholders, why do you want them leaving? (i.e. selling)

diametric: as fun as it is playing chess with pigeons, i'm going afk for a bit.

danielpbarron: diametric, I get that a lot

ThickAsThieves: you have plenty info, but i'm guessing there is no action on the books outside 1%

ThickAsThieves: hmm i havent paid attention to it, but i will say i think your goal is to make money while following the rules, nothing more

mike_c: not to keep sticking my nose in when you keep asking TaT, but i don't think more volume should be a goal.

diametric: danielpbarron: well I should say, they'll go to heaven.

diametric: danielpbarron: 17"Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. 18"For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished.…

mircea_popescu: "In the months of fear and shame that followed my being charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor, I continuously analyzed my own mind-set that day, trying to understand how I did something that both a bystander and a police officer considered criminally dangerous, and the best I could come up with was the theory that I’d been lulled by nostalgia into a false sense of security."

mircea_popescu: in the trunk of the station wagon on long road trips. I remember standing up in the back of my father’s LeBaron convertible while he cruised around the neighborhood, or spending an hour lying low on the seat of our station wagon, feet against the window, daydreaming or reading in crowded parking lots while my mother got groceries or ran other boring errands. One friend tells me how, from 7-Elevens, to Kroger, to var

mircea_popescu: My friends and I sometimes play this game, the did-our-parents-really-let-us-do-that game. We recall bike ramps, model rockets, videotaping ourselves setting toys on fire. Many remember taking off on bikes alone, playing in the woods for hours without adult supervision, crawling through storm drains to follow creek beds, latchkey afternoons, monkey bars installed over slabs of concrete. My husband recalls forts built

mircea_popescu: i do not wish to be involved with anything that annoying.

mircea_popescu: well if i had no other reasons to not have kids, this'd be sufficient.

diametric: danielpbarron: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy+13%3A10&version=ESV is the closest I can find. Since your parents are atheists, I think its your duty to go stone them now.

mircea_popescu: "I know that a home with an unfenced swimming pool is as dangerous as one with a loaded gun."

jurov: i wonder how would you help f.mpif moving if you were mm

mircea_popescu: http://i.imgur.com/DigkZGS.gif << this is too fuckin cute

danielpbarron: but anyway; to answer the question: yes I would honor my parents even if they are wicked (mine happen to be currently)

diametric: i don't think he has a choice

danielpbarron: TomServo, no; i should have been stoned to death

TomServo: danielpbarron: I dunno, doing DXM and causing brain lesions sounds pretty rebellious. Would you have made it? :P

chetty: hmm I think most of todays xtians are new testament not old

asciilifeform: i thought even the archaeologically-challenged are at least familiar with the babypit of sparta, say

Mats_cd03: i guess my brain has lesions

mircea_popescu: speaking of weird compounds : when i was a kid you could buy coideine phosphate otc. and people did.

danielpbarron: my dad never hit me and i'm not afraid of him

mike_c: no. my father never hit me (mom did spanking), but i was more scared of him than her.

danielpbarron: doesn't that warface have to come with the memory that i usually is followed by a beating?

mircea_popescu: (actually what i said iirc was that if it's needed you suck a sa parent, which ... well... yeah)

mircea_popescu: TomServo, i said it shouldn't be needed

mike_c: whoop, now i gotta give him percocet instaed of beatings :)

mircea_popescu: well i can see that :)

danielpbarron: no, i agree with you

mircea_popescu: did i stumble on a danielpbarron pet peeve ?

mircea_popescu: <mike_c> what do i care if he wants to roll on the ground at the mall and scream? go for it. << you care because if you didn't you'ds have married a chimp instead of his mother.

mike_c: true. well, I'll report back in a few years.

danielpbarron: i agree; spare the rod, spoil the child

mike_c: what do i care if he wants to roll on the ground at the mall and scream? go for it.

mike_c: idk that beatings help. i think i will just go with ignoring in that situation.

mircea_popescu: re that link : i had this nutty discussion with a guy at the mall in timisoara, his 4 yo kid was throwing an absolute tantrum on the ground

mike_c: ooh, i like this lenore skenazy woman

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i think you will find that quite a few folks here will join you to party in Ar, as soon as we figure out what to eat there.

asciilifeform: i gotta say, the fuckwits don't bother me (except on the rare occasions they show up to my door, spamming)

mike_c: i don't see angels stopping by argentina with golden messages from aliens
