Dekker3D: No, I mean.. just now I first had to /query gribble and do the one time password authentication, and then I had to /query assbot and send !up. It's

mircea_popescu: Raising the blanket just
a little Ruska answered from the darkness: 'Shhh - Clara-'
mircea_popescu: e had been nothing more than
a look of sympathy on
a girl's face as she had listened to him, earlier that evening, telling his story. And for the first time, seeing himself mirrored in the girl's eyes, Ruska felt there was something heroic and out of the ordinary about his life. There was nothing between them yet, but he felt something had happened that gave him the right to say he had
a girl.
mircea_popescu: 'Yes! I have!' Ruska groaned in agony, lying on his back tightly clutching the pillow to him. He breathed into it, and the pillow returned the warmth of his own youth, condemned to spend itself in the bitter sterility of bringing to

a product that's not globalized yet.
thestringpuller: seems within mining infrastructure there is always
a scam on some level...
Dekker3D: Hm. You were planning to actually make connections, targetting
a specific company?
thestringpuller: i dunno how mature the market is: people liek lunaminer and petaminer are making it
a bit...difficult
Dekker3D: Cool. If you find
a way and don't mind sharing, I'd love to hear about it
Dekker3D: ... Well, as soon as I get around to replacing
a water pump. I did some silly things in setting up my mining rig. It wasn't all that serious anyway.
thestringpuller: haha I'm trying to find
a way around that, hustle with the asics
Dekker3D: If I can choose between having the same opportunities as everyone else, or being behind
a group of others, I'll choose having the same opportunities
