a scam, even if the operators aren't directly stealing

ThickAsThieves: mp clarification on question one "start that way" as in there will there not be
a base set of art for everything within the intended style of the game
cgcardona: ok give me
a sec to get it all set up again.
ThickAsThieves: mircea_popescu when you mention "art" for S.MG shall be open market, does that mean: 1. It will start that way? 2. It will/won't not have
a style guide as boundary? 3. Audio will be sourced likewise? (style guide? music? sfx? voice?)

a multi-country operation
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: There's been
a strong push in low-cost banking services here; there's
a legal requirement for every bank to offer
a low-cost banking product that doesn't exceed dictated maximum costs, so for remittance within the country (for miners sending money to their families, for eg) they just use that
Maciano: OK, thought it was worth
a try.

a job interview? :D
fluffypony: Nah, Vodacom (cellular service provider) and Nedbank (bank) spent millions in trying to bring M-pesa to South Africa; after

a good market indicator.
mircea_popescu: "If you got here via
a link to an older item, it has been purged from the database"
mircea_popescu: i'm having brain orgasms over here, this is EXACTLY the sort of thing life is all about. so i made
a wonderful thing, on top of which dooglus made
a wonderful thing, on top of which kakobrekla made
a wonderful thing. none of these are particularly hard to do, once you have the others' stuff. but they're nigh on impossible to do if you do not.
☟︎ artifexd: It would be nice if assbot knew the total investment and could thus also give
a total up or down.

a billion or so of the dogecoins on

a bunch of episodes of computer chronicles quite some time ago, i guess this kennas show will have
a similar feel in 20 years or so. the main difference though is that cc was not ran by scammers but the opposite.
thestringpuller: I'll send you some crypto mail soon and we'll have
a BTC game day.
bounce: well, if there isn't
a port then this is as good
a point as any to cook one up
BingoBoingo: bounce: Sure, but sometimes you gotta be able to reproduce something in
a different way. It may not be the most right way.
mircea_popescu: MarieLynn thestringpuller i think there may be
a strong difference based on location. airbnb may work
a lot better outside of the us than inside.
MarieLynn: <+thestringpuller> That sucks. My last AirBnB in Toronto had
a kleptomaniac cat... Other than that, good experiences so far.
bounce: right. why'd that drop all of
a sudden? start of the avalanche?

a host of other high-end flashlights
csshih: yeah it's
a boatload of advertising bullshit
bounce: you can get whatwasit 100 hours out of
a single aa... but it won't be much light.
csshih: holy shit 32 led bulbs with
a massive 20,000 mcd?!
Namworld: Trendon was such
a retard... "Herp derp, I'm going to run
a ponzi scheme and just use spend everything directly on all my personal accounts."
MarieLynn: Usually when I participate in these things I wind up wioth an annoying stalker so I haven't been in IRC for over
a decade.
MarieLynn: Obama is
a surprising person. Freakishly thin. Very 'rememberable'

a monster recently.

a canadian, she's entitled to vote for obama.
mircea_popescu: don't go telling me about how
a 200 meter long pike is nothing.

a sense arbitraging skills
