i have friends who still watch it after 15yrs
mircea_popescu: which reminds me, when
i was a kid there was this wrestler dubbed bam bam biggelow
Diablo-D3: mircea_popescu: only b word
I could think of
mircea_popescu: Diablo-D3 but
i'm not a brony. perhaps the only bitcoin veteran in this sad situation.
ThickAsThieves: Can you tell
I've been reading TheRegister for more than a decade?
ThickAsThieves: fwiw
i watched the nethash decrease about 200TH over the past hour
mircea_popescu: btw, someone dump the trilema article on reddit will you ?
i wanna see them writhe.
ThickAsThieves:
i aalways thought most people lived as parodies of themselves
mircea_popescu:
i guess the world is split in tow sorts of people : those who aspire to be so lucky to live to be our own parodies, and those who aspire to be so lucky to die before that.
ThickAsThieves: in less than a year
I learned a bunch of stuff about Buffet, and then the first letter
I get to read as it is release, reads like satire
ThickAsThieves: the excuse will be,
I don't wanna have to buy bitcoins to bet against bitcoin
Neil: You mean, if you're not a bitcoin believer? Then yeah. But
I'm quite confident BTC will outperform Berkshire.
mircea_popescu: "honey, there's a 1000:1 bet that berkshire will outperform bitcoin in 2014, and
i'm not taking it"
mircea_popescu:
i mean
i fully understand you, but from an "outside" perspective, right ? fucking nuts.
Neil: Gotta say despite the odds
I'm not gonna bet No on that one.
Neil: Oh dear;
I now have 12 months of loading bitbet to see Berkshire Hathaway at the top.
ThickAsThieves: balulasch_
I take it you're the one with the 35k-share ask wall on CBTC
ThickAsThieves:
i hope he hope his cheated-on wife makes a similar video in 20 yeards
chetty: TAT
I saw that video couple days ago, nothing cute about it
Duffer1: you can hang around and try to avoid catastrophic losses
i suppose
balulasch_: why do
i never get an answer that makes any sense
balulasch:
I visited bit777.com 2 days ago and looked at the total wagered Bitcoins. Cant remember the exact number but as
I visited today
I could swear that the number was at least 10,000BTC higher. This means there must be a very huge volume. Considering the fact that bit777 is the property of casinobitco.in makes the companys stock worth on havelock seem heavily underrated imho..
I'm waiting for the new 2weekly statement like how
I jcpham:
i found it funny he posted a reddit thread about putting your money where your mouth is....
dub: Diablo-D3: nothing, its BAU..
I was offering a reason for why amex is 'larger' than processors with more footprint

lnovy:
I'm trying to fix this in my coin, releasing asap™ (and no, it's not a currency).
lnovy: electricity burned is almost directly transformed into network security which more or less directly affects price. The real problem and wasting is not with distributed mining but with nondistributed chain verification as this needs to be done by every participant indepently and every new member of network need to check whole chain. This is a problem that will kill ethereum very quicky as you are actually not paying transaction fee for inclusion
i mircea_popescu: wao-ender

Apocalyptic: oh yeah

moiety: mircea_popescu: mew! sorry

ThickAsThieves: "

mircea_popescu: if
i recall he got well plastered clubbing last time, mebbe the lady objects.
ThickAsThieves:
i talked to him like yesterday and he said he was gonna try, not sure if he realized how close the deadline was or not
ThickAsThieves: interesting, if not obvious, stat
I heard: 85% of new businesses in the US are started by immigrants or their children
mircea_popescu: to anyone who doesn't much give a shit about the us,
i would guess.
mircea_popescu: "For those persons whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order who might have a constitutional presence in the United States,
I find that because of the ability to transfer funds or other assets instantaneously, prior notice to such persons of measures to be taken pursuant to this order would render those measures ineffectual.
I therefore determine that for these measures to be effective
☟︎ mircea_popescu: "
I hereby determine that the making of donations of the type of articles specified in section 203(b)(2) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) by, to, or for the benefit of any person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to section 1 of this order would seriously impair my ability to deal with the national emergency declared in this order, and
I hereby prohibit such donations as provided by section 1
mircea_popescu: ropriation of its assets, constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States, and
I hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat.
mircea_popescu:
I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, find that the actions and policies of persons -- including persons who have asserted governmental authority in the Crimean region without the authorization of the Government of Ukraine -- that undermine democratic processes and institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace, security, stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and contribute to the misapp
chetty:
I think talking to Ukrainians now warrants confiscation of property
FabianB: my guess is they appeared 4 weeks ago and also made at that time, so probably the ones
i bought are profitable :)
mircea_popescu: but still,
i'd eventually expect mining to settle down and 2.9x increases over a period to be rare.
mircea_popescu:
i guess that introduces an extra leg of risk there huh.
mircea_popescu: FabianB this'd be an interesting project
i guess, it's not directly obvious to me how the to prices'd relate
Apocalyptic:
I wonder what rates does gribble use for USD/EUR
ThickAsThieves: anywho, you are right, he can defend himself,
i'm just pointing out that the accusations are a bit off the wall
mircea_popescu:
i don't talk privately to nobodies, in general. so he can answer and that's all.
Duffer1:
i haven't kept up with the gossip
mircea_popescu: meanwhile a 23yo fuckwith stated that "The public facing websites are being tied into the advertising campaign which starts on 1st Feb. If you have concerns about me then so be it, if you would also like me to spend my time delivering updates then just say, however
I do look forward to proving posts like these wrong."
mircea_popescu: so to this day if
i google "neobee"
i get 1st a havelock link and 2nd a webmail account for neobee.net, then reddit and btctalk pages.
