assbot: Sprint Will Sell a $12 Wireless Plan that Only Connects to Facebook or Twitter - Digits - WSJ
BingoBoingo: July 30th, 2014 Sprint and Skynet collude to officially reveal the Shitternet, asp predicted by asciilifeform and others http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2014/07/30/sprint-tries-a-facebook-only-wireless-plan/
FoOdies5: the dev is basically saying Luke-Jr is a douche in the op
neuroMode: BingoBoingo, do you have a good link for CoiledCoin?
BingoBoingo: FoOdies5: The short story of CoiledCoin is you need to find and read the long story to understand the things making lowercase altcoins fail have been happening for a long time as the Coiled Coin story makes an interesting contrast to other altcoins which were its contemporaries and still died albeit in other ways
FoOdies5: people will fuck up when they have a gazillion decimals to work with
fluffypony: when you click on a payment link
ben_vulpes: what is a fucking Bit
ben_vulpes: there's a limit, let's go to it.
fluffypony: and then argue for a few years
FoOdies5: what a complete douche
fluffypony: a lot of miners got pissy that Luke-Jr was using their hash without their permission
BingoBoingo: FoOdies5: There's also the chance that the big miner that picks up a coin for Merged mining won't be friendly to it, see CoiledCoin as an early example
FoOdies5: so that via merged mining they secure their chain in exchange for a part of their reward
BingoBoingo: FoOdies5: Not really, the market forces merged mining brings a lot of coins to an early slaughter.
FoOdies5: BingoBoingo merged mining should be a feature for niche coins
BingoBoingo: Many a lower case altcoin died that way
BingoBoingo: Well, the same breach happens when a coin switches from mining its own chain to merged mining
fluffypony: BingoBoingo: yep - what I meant is that I don't have a problem if someone launches a PoS coin with something fundamentally different to PPC, I don't think it's bad to play with stuff in a real-world environment
fluffypony: I'm disappointed that thickasthieves hasn't even bothered releasing a whitepaper promising Choctaw Star Gates for Altcoin
neuroMode: u have a quicklink?
neuroMode: its such a disgrace to what actual research/white papers are
neuroMode: a glorified OP post
fluffypony: just nonsensical diagrams and walls of text written by a monkey
fluffypony: I see the new thing is you have to release a whitepaper
fluffypony: I wonder how much of it is the same group of retards investing in a new shitcoin hoping to get rich
neuroMode: cryptocurrencies are more of a casino to gamble at
neuroMode: yep. its all the cryptogoblins that pout about inflation and have a very narrow scope of cryptocurrencies
fluffypony: launch a PoW shitcoin, and then "suddenly" announce it's changing to PoS
neuroMode: and you know a dev is naive
neuroMode: it becomes very obviously a pyramid scheme no matter how well disguised the marketing campaign is
neuroMode: i mean...let's create artificially rare coins that only have a week of distribution
neuroMode: its almost like its a joke
fluffypony: I can't look at a PoS coin without thinking it stands for "piece of shit"
neuroMode: Naut immediately becomes a pyramid scheme
FoOdies5: out in a blaze of glory
fluffypony: BigBitz has a point
FoOdies5: or a social experiment to see how dumb people can be
FoOdies5: what the fuck can you stabilize with a premine ?
fluffypony: with a "stabilisation fund" that hasn't stabilised anything
FoOdies5: either way it's a scheme
FoOdies5: firstly a coin created by a wallstreet guy is obviously a get rich quick/slow scheme
kakobrekla: this thing is like a virus.
artifexd: Summary: Make a few videos showing how to register a nick, create a key, register in the wot.
jurov: artifexd i'm looking forward to a mostly offline week, scripting will come later.
artifexd: ;;later tell jurov Did you come up with a script for the wot video? Do you still need somebody to record the mac version?
gribble: coingenuity was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 23 weeks, 6 days, 16 hours, 58 minutes, and 10 seconds ago: <coingenuity> mircea_popescu: there's a lot of them
rithm: BigBitz i believe this to be a fabrication
BigBitz: but coinginuity always claimed to be a multi-millionaire metal dealer. etc.
rithm: i think the business model had a side business involving time-value
mod6: hrm. I placed 2 small orders and recieved, but that was over a year ago :/
mircea_popescu: it is a lawly name.
mircea_popescu: assbot's a sloot.
mthreat: i went to give $50 and the form required a name and email address, and i left
mircea_popescu: "When I am observing the Arnhem chimpanzees I sometimes feel I am studying Freud’s primal horde; as if a time machine has taken me back to prehistoric times, so that I can observe the village life of our ancestors. They still accept the droit du seigneur, one of the forgotten products of western culture. When Yeroen was the alpha male, he alone was responsible for about three-quarters of all matings. Not counting sex
asciilifeform: at that point, if he says 'sky is blue', you find yourself going out with a spectrometer - can't take his word...
asciilifeform: (99% facts, 1% 'anyone who demos a 'tempest' setup is both con artist and criminal, plug yer ears')
danielpbarron: self-control is certainly a requirement for salvation
ThickAsThieves: i ordered two t-shirts with a btc logo in the style of a citi bank logo
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron dedication is a virtue, but too much of a virtue can be a sin. even your church preaches temperance, does it not ?
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves the kid has a lot of zeal doesn't he ?
rithm: i spend a majority of my day hanging on danielpbarron's every line of text.
ThickAsThieves: "Why not use a more reputable site like nitrogensports or cloudbet?"
artifexd: Once could use the #bitcoin-otc-ratings channel as source material for a very funny soap opera.
artifexd: because some regular there picked a fight. Very trustworthy when i comes to busines <<< Moar lol
artifexd: <gribble> New rating | birdman > 3 > danielpbarron | Holds alot of my btc, very knowlageable with cryptography, is childish and doesnt understand the web of trust. negative rated me for getting devoice on #bitcoin-assets. Rationalizes that he had to change the +2 he had for me to a -4 because of his appearence there. Not to mention i was devoiced there
mircea_popescu: it's generally a good sign.
mircea_popescu: occasionally one runs into a well work whore that can smoke with her cunt.
mircea_popescu: from a cup or do you have a little trough for it ?
mircea_popescu: everything enhances orgasm, for crying out loud. including not doing it for a while.
mircea_popescu: or perhaps for want of a pair of glasses :D
mircea_popescu: this because you're a cis scum privilege-mongering woman hater.
mircea_popescu: a spirited bout of brawling with no clear victor.
mircea_popescu: this is exactly the definition of a good lay
ThickAsThieves: Princessnell, she casts a spell, with words longer than I can spell. She found her calling in verbal brawling, but who's winning? No one can tell.
mircea_popescu: i once knew a stripper named sex.
ThickAsThieves: sex is a slut
mircea_popescu: rithm a, but does sex like you back ?
mircea_popescu: ths because they HAVE spent a lot of time thinking about sex.
mircea_popescu: remarkably enough, my use of the sex metaphor is actually unrelated to sex. it just happens to be an incredibly good structure for explaining things to people, especially people who haven't spent a lot of time thinking, either generally or on the topic at hand.
mircea_popescu: well, the objection'd be that hyper requires an average, and not only is there a good objective average sex, but why would anyone care ? this then reduces the problem to a personal matter, "he talks more of it than i do. this is inconvenient for x y z reasons."
ThickAsThieves: maybe i can translate for chetty, or at least put words in her mouth. you have a hyper-sexualized view of things, using sex as metaphor constantly, being quite horny, keeping sex slaves, sex is majorly part of your psyche, going so far as to imply a hypersexual person is a hypersuccessful person/ why do you think it's so important and how does this relate to the inferiority assumed by
mircea_popescu: cazalla a that's no good.
chetty: the question comes down to, whats the sex in a stock exchange trade?
chetty: well apparently a failed attmept to forestall you going on that life obviously means sex ..
chetty: yeah, meant as a generic term, not biology
mircea_popescu: i guess im writing a blogpost.
mircea_popescu: this isn't really a fair statement of the problem
mircea_popescu: "The ruling requires Argentina to pay 100 percent of its debt to the holdouts at the same time Argentina pays the restructured bonds to the “holdins.” Argentina is not allowed, under Griesa’s ruling, to pay some creditors but not others. The payment date was June 30. Because Argentina missed its payment, it is now under a 30-day grace period. If Argentina does not pay by the end of July it will, again, be formall
mircea_popescu: the subtext i read there is, guy buys diamond ring, girl spends a few hours on the end of a leash that day.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves see now THEY could make a bitcoin atm.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, yeah, it's actually impossible to keep a well trained slavegirl restrained. she'll wiggle out, over time. this being more for the engineering of it etc.
mircea_popescu: http://31.media.tumblr.com/4eb801b597985edc9c21a50230d3dcde/tumblr_mex511etlZ1qlne6uo1_500.png this is such a brilliant idea really.
mircea_popescu: chetty lol@cnbtc. and i guess the us hasn';t recently embarked in a joyride of paying ransoms to hide the reality of its middle eastern defeat ?
chetty: in a related topis: http://www.cnbc.com/id/101877574
mircea_popescu: usg is spending a lot of money time and resources trying to infiltrate it!
