BingoBoingo: decimation: Warfarin is
a bit different. Warfarin has an antidote.
mircea_popescu: the aliens might land five minutes later and declare that anyone can have super hot alien blowjobs for
a eth each
mircea_popescu: if you buy
a future and the thing fails there's many ways to put it, but they all boil down to "you're screwed".
mircea_popescu: in any case, one generally buys
a future if they expect the thing to work well, not to fail.
mike_c: wait, was that
a meta-insult?
mircea_popescu: canada hasn't had
a good musician since cohen visited and the us...
mircea_popescu: im not sure if shitty contemporary bands should be given 10k in grants to derp quietly in
a corner at their craft or just be medicated worth 10k for possesion.
nubbins`: that's the thing about grants, you get blacklisted if you don't produce (
a) your work and (b) your receipts
BingoBoingo: nubbins`: The 2k minimum is to avoid the situation where they buy exactly the number of cd's they have friends to pester and need pod cd's twice
a month for
a decade.
nubbins`: mircea_popescu: yeah, i've got
a copy somewhere
nubbins`: one of our regular customers was awarded
a $10k grant last year to record an album
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well I figured I'd throw
a quote out there just in case some "band" has parents with more coin than sense
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo there exist no indie bands which can afford
a 10 btc expenditure on life saving surgery
nubbins`: BingoBoingo i don't think many bands here would be into
a 2k minimum ;(

a print on demand basis. 6 week turn around for the first batch.
mircea_popescu: the last existing top hat factory was destroyed in
a family dispute coupla decades ago
nubbins`: name an
a-list band, their vinyl is pressed there
nubbins`: supposed to be
a one-of-
a-kind setup
mircea_popescu: nubbins` but srsly, if you can get
a vynil press you can sell to all the hippies
nubbins`: just looking for
a fresh perspective, glad to see we're all in agreement 8)
nubbins`: this is
a silkscreen printing studio, not
a cd dupe centre
nubbins`: it's hard to say because
a lot of bands are doing vinyl or download cards these days instead of cds. ballpark guess, might get 1000 cds duped over the next year
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla's idea goes
a long way towards that. "3k, cause they're prepaid"
nubbins`: just happened to be making some cd cases for
a band and they wanted discs printed, idly wondering if we'd want to duplicate em too
BingoBoingo finds it interesting that in
a few years on patent Atypical Antipsychotics will dry up, and the next pivot isn't apparent on the horizon yet.
mircea_popescu: we're trying to build
a great future here and you gotta throw simple element wrenches into the windows
BingoBoingo: dub> they give lithium in cases of extreme psychosis << Also they don't really give lithium much for psychosis anymore which is
a shame considering how well it works...
BingoBoingo: dub: Not just then, low dose lithium can work well for
a person when their brain is just running
a little hot.
midnightmagic: i didn't know until afterwards that the water was contaminated. they sell it as

a chick'n while at it. << How does that saying go... "Don't shit where you eat"
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: pure salt is. The impurities give it the weird extra flavours. I mean some I'm not cool with. There's this weird black salt that has
a lot of sulphur in it.
midnightmagic: there are some weird salts that are hand-mined and prepared in china too. They highlight one in
a show called "Taste of China".
dub: theres
a place up the road that does that bread and og dumplings
midnightmagic: you just have to know
a chinese person. I got some great stuff smuggled out. :-D
mircea_popescu: nubbins` lawyer is
a noun. get it ?
A NOUN. you don't want it to sue you.,
copumpkin: it's
a pity people only eat general tsao and such

a business case for buying one of these cd duplication machines

benkay: BingoBoingo: is this ether coin
a btc fork or...
mircea_popescu: this is
a dispute where
a consumate gofer (ie, gmaxwell) is trying to veer their naivity into some sort of political relevance for himself, gets called out and then stomped out.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, this isn't in any sense
a dispute pitting flaming social justice warriors and other braindamaged kids trying to make the world "liberal"
a la copumpkin against cold hard reality.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo
a whole btc. not
a succession of 5.997 2.997 etc etc.
BingoBoingo: Well, it was just last week the link dropped here of an aspiring HYIP scammer who lost
a whole BTC to malware he though would let him cheat
a pasted together gambling site.
BingoBoingo: mike_c: Yeah,
a big problem in this space is still sound/look
a like names.
mike_c: BingoBoingo: yeah, it didn't seem completely retarded. i had attached some of that feeling to this ethereum thingy. didn't realize it was just
a complete nothing.
BingoBoingo: Ah. Electrum wallet (split into online and offline components like armory) plus one's own electrum server actually doesn't seem like
a bad wallet solution atm
mike_c: jurov is
a big fan. unless i dreamt all this.
BingoBoingo: Then it will pretend to be
a something before becoming
a nothing again

a wallet or something?
BingoBoingo: Wait, there's
a wallet thing that does that?

a shpaga when I meet you
mircea_popescu: find the us guy that wil tell
a bum what to do, how to speak and so on.
mircea_popescu: and it's really universal. i was out one night here, and
a bum (there's tons of bums in buenos aires, they have matresses in the street and whatnot) started howling. like 3 am.
mircea_popescu: ie, they're firm in the notion that nothing in their hand can be of value.
a sort of reverse-midas mentality.
BingoBoingo: <FoOdies> true but I doubt people who've been to an interrecial intersex interspecies orgy are interested in reading any porn << if only you knew what
a hassel these things are to set up...
mircea_popescu: bitstein basically the idea is that
a whole generation of mutton has been raised to abhor actual power, and to readily insist it must be traded in for power tokens.
bitstein: mircea_popescu: Oh yes! I need to re-read it, but that was
a great TLP article.
FoOdies: why would I need to read about other retards' mishaps when I have
a first have experience with fbi+mi5+sri

a community of worthless retards. o noes!"
thickasthieves: "What we don't have is
a service or good which is unique to Doge which offers such an incentive to use the currency that Fiat will not dare pee on our post." full circle
BingoBoingo: Posting memes and jokes won't do. We have the community, and we have the social media reach. What we don't have is
a service or good which is unique to Doge which offers such an incentive to use the currency that Fiat will not dare pee on our post."
BingoBoingo: Once more, as
a reminder, we need to create
a reason for people to want to buy in into Dogecoin, and for whales to hold their stash.
