a profit
BingoBoingo: pankkake: Well it sounded like
a better idea early last year... Now... Eh
punkman: I got some doge on
a retired disk, hoping doge will stop existing so I don't have to ever dig them out
BingoBoingo: As kind of
a hedge against an SHA-2 apocalypse.
BingoBoingo: Eh, I have some on
a paper wallet somewhere
punkman: won't find
a lot of lite coin here
BingoBoingo: Then yes, alibaba exapands into everything, provided there is an opportunity for them to take
a cut of the action.
BingoBoingo: Many merchants are shitty on Alibaba, but...
A lot of people like consuming and reselling shit.
punkman: yeah but it's such
a shithole
BingoBoingo: Alibaba might actually have
a greater value than google
punkman: "On September 18, 2012, following years of negotiations, Yahoo agreed to sell
a 20% stake back to Alibaba for $7.6 billion."
cazalla: plus they would forget to remove the link after you paid for
a year so it was typically
a one off payment for perma link
cazalla: it wasn't
a bad paid link back in the day
BingoBoingo: Yahoo might actually be
a more accomplished internet troll than Weev.
BingoBoingo: punkman: In three years, once the blog has been living on its own hardware for
a while... That might be the time to throw Yahoo some pity pennies.
BingoBoingo: ENOUGH! What is wrong with you all? All I want is
a drink that gets me drunk, doesn't taste like water, and doesn't fill me up so fast I start to hate it halfway through. Is that really too much to ask?
jborkl: So that is the first part, about
a week and it will complete
jborkl: To find out about
a bitcoin address that is not yours is
a challenge
assbot: If I was pitching, after Sandoval shook his first 'round the bases after homering for the 1st time in
a month, somebody's getting
a bruise.
BingoBoingo: I remember what happened last time I tried to crush
a bubble. If mother fuckers want to burn themselves out, I can wait this time.
BingoBoingo: "They directed more than one company involved to send
a rescission offer to all the investors—
a multipage document telling them they could choose to immediately recoup their money, with 6 percent interest, if they pulled out. The rescission offer revealed
a dire fiscal situation."
BingoBoingo: "Right away, Crill learned that Moffitt was selling securities without having registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. So he set up
a meeting with Moffitt and Paul Smucker, one of the main Amish investors, at Smucker’s house in Lancaster."
assbot: The dark side of .io: How the U.K. is making web domain profits from
a shady Cold War land deal — Tech News and Analysis
BingoBoingo: Namworld: Oh, just setting up
a machine as
a node. Downloaded the blockchain by torrent in about an hour. It's on hour six of importing the blackchain into Bitcoind and still has the better part of 2013 to get through.
Namworld: I might be
a bit on and off for the next week or two. Going to move out to
a new place.
Namworld: Just came around to leave someone
a message. I'm heading right back offline.
BingoBoingo: I wonder how much of this hashpower coming onto ATC is simply to help WoL's game of the week progress in
a timely manner?
decimation: ascii, this is proof of the point you made the other day. If USG finds
a website for 'hos intolerable, how much more intolerable would
a "private army" be?
BingoBoingo: mike_c: There's
a surprise in the statement you may want to insert into your tracker...
jonvaage: My hunch is that I need
a rating from someone assbot has rated.
jonvaage: Thanks, I guess I need
a better connection to assbot to give myself voice.
kakobrekla: if anyone is particularly interested, i looked into why
a negative prefix appears in the statement at the gain spec
bitstein: Well, I got in when it started, so $7,99. I listen to
a lot of music, and I use it on my phone. It's much easier than having to torrent everything.
ThickAsThieves: so is this
a thing, you reply negatively to
a tweet, then poster deleted op and retweets anew, disconnecting your comment from their feed
rithm: what's he doing taking
a vacation to auschwitz or something?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Well, there's
a differences between college towns and towns will colleges.
A proper college town is the only thing resembling civilization for ~50 miles around.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform> BingoBoingo, mp_a_colonia: where i live, pawn shops are very peculiar places, where nothing is priced remotely close to what any sane person would pay. probably just cash laundries. << College towns tend to have saner pricing. Mix of broke students with nice stuff from their relatives and people who want bling, but can't pay mall prices.
BingoBoingo: mp_a_colonia: Doing
a bit of research. Also that thing where I may be relocating sometime this month.
A stable shipping address would be helpful.
BingoBoingo: <mp_a_colonia> BingoBoingo: Honestly given enough pawn shop visits the most impressive pieces can be foun for ~$100-200 (Movados without the retarded Museum dial and others) << you know this could be
a great business for you ? << I've considered such things.
benkay: <mp_a_colonia> benkay: the girl's recently gotten rather militant about our sleep schedules - i'm interested in the topic at large. << which way ? // early to bed, early to rise...
mp_a_colonia: and i ngeneral the press'd better figure it out too. if it can';t collect
a btc in bitbet bets it ain't news, nor does it matter for bitcoin.
ThickAsThieves: <+mp_a_colonia> ThickAsThieves, da fuck is cosmosis /// like osmosis, but cosmic, man
BingoBoingo: <mp_a_colonia> wasn't mega big power that scammy thing buzzdave moved on after stealing everyone's coin with basic and "blood sweat and tears" tom ? << YEah
mp_a_colonia: TheNewDeal: just in case price jumps up really quickly, or whats the point? << for
a long time that seemed like forever back in 2012, Luke-Jr was selling btc for 20 dollars each.
mp_a_colonia: crowd is never diverse enough to even vaguely approximate random distribution, but this point is
a bridge too far for your average "social studies" nitwit.
mp_a_colonia: asciilifeform: it's out of
a bizarre lsd trip idea that 'crowd has wisdom' and voting can sum intelligence << if the crowd is randomly distributed, then the result of averaging it is lower errors. like the scientific process.
mp_a_colonia: "you can't get
a ruptured hymen from button licking!"
mp_a_colonia: surprised if there's
a lot of attempts to bake cunnilingus in ?
mp_a_colonia: asciilifeform: i just don't get it. people keep asking to bake 'democracy' in << suppose there's
a class of 16 year olds. the girls are all hormonal, the boys are all eunuchs save one.
mp_a_colonia: hell, maybe that thing even goes somewhere this time. it's been cooking on
a slow fire for > 4 years.
mp_a_colonia: "i KNOW it's
a construction, stop trying to lie to me" sort of thing
mp_a_colonia: the "retail is for suckers" line is old for
a reason.
mp_a_colonia: BingoBoingo: Honestly given enough pawn shop visits the most impressive pieces can be foun for ~$100-200 (Movados without the retarded Museum dial and others) << you know this could be
a great business for you ?
mp_a_colonia: it's
a living. definitely better than redditard, say.
mp_a_colonia: they can all be lawyers, to spend
a few years decrypting the "russians" communications, and
a few decades on govt life support regfusingf to decrypt them
mp_a_colonia: cgcardona, what's equity work ? like you become
a cofounder ?
nubbins`: srsly, the cut edges feel like
a smooth surface
mp_a_colonia: lol @this troll log omg. I WAS AT NO POINT ON
A PONY
nubbins`: you pull the drumsticks forward and they make
a nice tripod w/ the can
fluffypony: I normally grab an extra-large can because paranoia - does
a normal size work ok?
nubbins`: this is my first time using
a regular-size can
fluffypony: quail starter leaves
a bit to be desired, unfortunately, but the duck breast main is great
fluffypony: speaking of securities - has Klye now done
a runner?
pankkake: also, I don't see
a situation where I would lose my gpg key but not the bitcoin address
mp_a_colonia: that sounds like
a proper new age thing. "John Derpelmeyer, Orgasmi Cosmosis Consultant"
mp_a_colonia: fluffypony, if he had the sense to keep the 2k btc from that disastrous silver sale back
a year ago he's got plenty of btc to matter yes.
fluffypony: pankkake: I've donated to gmaxwell and
a couple of others who have made particularly insightful posts
fluffypony: asciilifeform: the difference being that Pietila actually does have
a reasonable shitload of money (which presumably comes from using daddy's bankroll and not completely fucking it up)
fluffypony: meh, mp_a_colonia, those threads sound like the typical eccentric stuff I gloss over for lack of caring - anyone who has
a large amount of money (and
a relatively large amount of Bitcoin) is allowed to be
a bit weird. I definitely think that all is not well upstairs, in the truest sense of the words, but that doesn't make him an outrightly threatening (by virtue of the power they wield) or dangerous (by virtue of ignorance) individual.
mp_a_colonia: neither works tho. inasmuch as you accept
a right, you accept implicitly that someone was in
a position to grant it.
mike_c: <+mp_a_colonia> mike_c, btw is btc live yet? << getting there. data is crunching.
mp_a_colonia: "When you just put institutional investors in
a pool that excludes high-frequency traders, they have
a hard time trading with each other. There's not, it turns out, all that much natural liquidity." << This << red
fluffypony: mp_a_colonia: not much, I tried searching the logs for Risto's name and bitcointalk username, but didn't stumble across anything special except general lelz
fluffypony: mp_a_colonia: I avoided the sauna, although the outdoors hottub was great when it got
a little chilly
fluffypony: I must say, Risto is really
a nice guy, and the whole thing was
a lot less batshit insane than expected. I think he has very little self-confidence, and makes up for it by being flashy and trying to be as ostentatious as possible, but he's
a fairly clever trader and pretty harmless, all things considered.
mp_a_colonia: punkman: mike_c, is there
a reason it doesn't have any sort of time weight when buying shares? << you may not remember this, but yoiu were here when wol was born. specificlaly, mike_c was derping about how you could have better weighting than the bitbet time stuff
fluffypony: because it was more of
a gathering than anything super organised
fluffypony: actually I had the liveblog on
a backup
