ozbot: I was just threatened for exposing a scam on r/bitcoin : Bitcoin
ThickAsThieves: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1ydz04/i_was_just_threatened_for_exposing_a_scam_on/
kakobrekla: Captain Zapp Brannigan: Don't blame yourself, Kif. We were doomed from the start. I guess all that remains now is for the captain to go down with the ship.
pankkake: I guess I was right saying Altcoin is the next AsicMiner
ThickAsThieves: i'll keep it positive though and note i'm focusing on other projects instead
ThickAsThieves: the short one is, i don't want to manage them anymore
ThickAsThieves: sry i hit enter before cleaning that up
jurov: haha. for one i know of no one using otr outside irc
diametric: I use it pretty much all the time. Most of the people I talk to have an otr capable client so it just automatically initiates a session
diametric: i prefer something that works with pidgin/adium so I can use OTR
ThickAsThieves: i just use whatever i have to i guess
ThickAsThieves: i did for a long while
diametric: same account since like, 97 i think
diametric: i'm still rocking aol instant messenger
jurov: it's funny i have met people that were using some IM app I never heard of, cuz everyone they know is using it
pankkake: I mined it, but it didn't make me rich despite the instamine feature
r3wt: Someone i knew once blew their brains out yesterday. One of those people you'd never think would blow their brains out
r3wt: i don't know i derailed the thread again. time for me to shut up now
r3wt: i'll throw in a dusty crackrock. its kinda old and stale but it'll getcha hi
kakobrekla: i wanna take some things out
ThickAsThieves: i invited the cryptocointalk.com guy to IRC but he says he's swamped with working on the forum
TomServo: "You know, when I see those two twins on that Doublemint commercial? I'm not thinking of gum."
ThickAsThieves: i wonder if they only screw twins
ThickAsThieves: i played the waves for a bit, but ended up with cash
the20year2: good thing I bought at $135
the20year2: oh wow, i din't realize tesla was at $200
Bugpowder: I need to pickup the license plate from CA DMV...
Bugpowder: I still need to get my bitcar
ThickAsThieves: i sold already tho :(
ThickAsThieves: one pdf is just a newer version of the other i think
pankkake: by the way, I'd use other currencies converted to USD, too. otherwise, you're ignoring perfectly working exchanges
davout: the one i'm reading mentions dogecoin
davout: ThickAsThieves: i see two PDFs
ThickAsThieves: i dont need to make a synopsis, they already did
diametric: davout: I'm not disagreeing with that
diametric: davout: alright I'll concede then it may not apply
diametric: I thought it had to have an inherent use
davout: diametric: it's relevant to the liberty reserve usd for example i'd say
davout: diametric: i have no idea, does it have to be relevant to something?
diametric: I'm curious what its relevant too if not bitcoin, or diametric-tokens.
davout: no it didn't, like i said, bitcoin is a commodity
CiPi: diametric; i think you loose the train man. :)
diametric: davout: I see what you mean
diametric: CiPi: I'm at a loss
davout: what if i told you bitcoin was a commodity
diametric: davout: I'm missing how you think the first sentence doesn't ban using something as money other than USD.
diametric: CiPi: ...do I know you?
davout: i'm putting it in circulation as valueless tokens
davout: diametric: i didn't see any part where it said it *had* to be, it says it isn't forbidden
ThickAsThieves: i wonder if we're all interpreting it wrong,
diametric: davout: thats exactly what i said.
davout: diametric: i read it as "issuing alternative currency based on the usd isn't forbidden"
ThickAsThieves: or if i use a rate convenient to me
ThickAsThieves: what if i charge a service fee to accept bitcoin?
ThickAsThieves: what if i offer 5% discount to bitcoin buyers?
diametric: ie I want to sell you a $500 phone for BTC. I figure out how much BTC is worth about $500, thats fine. If I decide based on other factors then I wouldn't be.
ThickAsThieves: of course i do adjust my rates, but not often enough to be remotely "coupled"
ThickAsThieves: what if i dont list USD
ThickAsThieves: like i do escrows for .2btc
diametric: But if I decouple the USD value from bitcoin, and begin using it based on my own interpretations (or the community at large) then I'd be in violation I guess.
ThickAsThieves: theyve been editing it i think
mike_c: i do like this new breed though that is upfront about the ponzi-ness.
benkay: jurov: i do have virtual memory, but swap is extremely manual
benkay: nanotube keeps backups in public, i knew where they were at one point. that memory block has been gc'd for more useful things tho
pankkake: that's what I feared. well, I'll eventually write a lib to explore it anyway
pankkake: yes, that's exactly why I was looking into doing that :)
pankkake: can I have a more detailed answer?
BingoBoingo: mike_c: I've found bitbook.biz reliable, but who knows if they will continue to be reliable.
the20year2: i just hate seeing people find and turn in $30,000 guns for destruction
the20year2: I always hear about hand grenades being found locally of ww2 vintage
the20year2: That's why I collect them. There's something fun about handing a 1895 issued rifle to a person and reminding them it's effective to 1,000 yards
asciilifeform: i'm told that yugoslavia still produces german 8mm rounds
the20year2: I'm sure it won't happen like that, but the gun within grabbing ditance, ready to go in my house is a colt AR15, not my AK
asciilifeform: when this is said, i always picture a game-like scene, where a godlike narrator proclaims 'world has ended! choose your small arms'
the20year2: I love my AK, but I can't say it's the gun I want to use if the world ends
asciilifeform: if i recall that was part of the recipe.
the20year2: In a life or death situation i'm sure they don't care too much
asciilifeform: i recall the relevant u.s. manual explicitly forbidding clubbing with the business end.
benkay: "hold still! i must bonk you gently!"
asciilifeform: i always thought this was odd. how do you club a man with a plastic stock
greenspan_fan: I am just waiting for a $500 carbon fiber printer to show up on kickstarter
cads: I'm kinda worried our printer won't be able to do it
cads: I'm not going to lie, 3500 is a figure I pulled from my rear
diametric: I guess if you had some cheap sintered dies made
cads: I think they want to see what a $1000 3d printer can do
the20year2: I need to get into that business
diametric: the20year2: yeah thats what i said
the20year2: For cnc it could likely be fine, for 3d printing i don't think it'd be right
the20year2: But, as you said if it's a prototype it might make sense to test it before using. Granted I don't undersand how you came to $700 if that fee doesn't include the design work too
cads: I'm not sure why they would not simply mill it from wood
the20year2: I imagine so
cads: I think if we manage this we can get more than that
diametric: http://i.imgur.com/0goJ6t3.png
ThickAsThieves: i wonder if i could get away with selling NSA original logo shirts as parody too
pankkake: you send me 1.2 BTC and I'll send you 1 BTC
kakobrekla: <VirtaEu> oups, I was not on private :\
VirtaAssets: I was not on private ? sorry :\
diametric: and by netflix i mean amazon aws
diametric: asciilifeform: I've seen that going around.
cads: What's the appropriate consulting fee, assuming I'm additionally training some workers and teaching them how to use the tech?
