BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I know a couple people running foundries for dirt track stock cars who work on that model. They aren't doing bad, but they do much better than they were when they were bagging groceries and corpses (apparetly people into dirt track racing find getting an EMT cert attractive until they do the EMT thing for real)
Ademan: BingoBoingo: More or less what I was saying (and may be wrong about) is that industries with market caps of similar size to BTC ASICs probably have similarly bad delays/timelines and/or shove shit out the door prematurely to meet said deadlines
asciilifeform: i still say that ~all the foundries are baking miners. just not ones that you can buy and plug in.
Ademan: BingoBoingo: I guess the number doesn't matter so much, my real point was car companies are HUGE
BingoBoingo: Tomorrow to breath new life into my motor carriage I plan to let it idle in the drive way until the check engine light disappears because sensor crud has been cooked.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I wouldn't take the other side of that bet.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo in fact, more coin has been lost so far than will be lost in the future i bet.
Apocalyptic: <BingoBoingo> As BTC matures bullshit like, "we get new stuff sometime in this 3 month window" is going to be tolerated less and less // I sometimes wonder why it's even tolerated now
BingoBoingo: I mean Cex.io has a website, it's .io just like inputs, what could go wrong?
BingoBoingo: Also I imagine muppets who would have happily piled onto AM last year are now throwing their money away at Cex.io
Ademan: (Since it wasn't scheduled to have happened yet, I don't know what would have shaken confidence)
Ademan: BingoBoingo: I had stopped watching around the time it bottomed out, but it looked like it was on its way back up
Namworld: I wasn't around for IPO
pizzaman1337: I should have bought s.mpoe instead of s.dice when I first got an mpex account. Oh well.
benkay: not as many as bitcoin i bet
mircea_popescu: i guess s.mpoe has made moar ppl rich than anything else.
benkay: i like the implications that the usg requires transaction reviews
Namworld: Is that article something like: "I got a big mouth and I can make it move. Watch!"
truffles: im kinda tired so i zoned out both games
Apocalyptic: BingoBoingo, i fully agree
BingoBoingo: Apocalyptic: truffles: See what I'm saying about G/30 being the minimum time control for a good game of chess.
BingoBoingo: If H1B visas were given for stripping instead of the sort of prostitution Facebook, Microsoft, and Google solicit I imagine girls from the Phillipines could have kept the soft touch in business.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I know right. Funny how strippers never engaged with the tidbit about "store of value" being the market driver
Ademan: benkay: yeah, leave it alone, I thought I observed something, I was wrong. The end.
Ademan: mircea_popescu: yeah, I could have sworn it wasn't generating a new address, but I must have been on something
Ademan: I must have been high or something before, it *is* generating a new address every time... I coulda sworn it wasn't
Ademan: mircea_popescu: http://www.openbsdfoundation.org/donations.html near the bottom there's a box to enter a BTC amount, and a button that says "Donate Now". When you enter an amount and hit donate, it takes you to a BitPay page with an address and QR code on it. I got it from there
Ademan: benkay: sure, but I think it's safe to assume 1. OpenBSD didn't care to set up their own wallet and 2. OpenBSD needs to convert to fiat to pay the bills anyways
Ademan: I assume either BitPay generates new addresses periodically (it obviously doesn't do it every transaction otherwise I would have found no transactions) or they generated a special one for the transaction
Ademan: benkay: I did look to see what transactions had occurred involving OpenBSD's address, but found <1BTC in transactions
Ademan: mircea_popescu: thanks, do you mind if I quote you on reddit?... heh
mircea_popescu: Ademan i used bitcoin to do it, yes.
BingoBoingo: Also I won't be able to play for a few hours. I'll be getting dinner soon and then getting drunk enough to whoop your ass truffles.
truffles: i lost track of what i was doing half way the games
BingoBoingo: I imagine some sort of way to eliminate ties might need to be devised.

Apocalyptic: heh truffles, i'm gonna crush you
BingoBoingo: No, I don't enjoy playing games under G/30
Apocalyptic: I feel like playing some chess too
truffles: i just tldred that
BingoBoingo: truffles: I will offer you 0.005 BTC if you pick up a copy of the Critik der reinen Vernunft and produce two single spaced print pages worth of text answering "Do the expressions “synthesis of apprehension in intuition,” “synthesis of reproduction in imagination,” and “synthesis of recognition in a concept” name three different syntheses or are these names for one synthesis?"
truffles: i forget how

carpet: so just a circle whilst I am at work, the cat will stay inside
carpet: I can draw a line using salt or other condiment around my cat
BingoBoingo: I could never tolerate an indoor cat. The piss smell is too rank and I don't have toxoplasmosis.
dub: when 18y/o cat is dead I don't want another one
BingoBoingo: dub: I imagine it is fine if you keep them outside. Maybe one day if there are too many drug the lot of them and drop them off at the vet to get snipped and released back into the wild.

lippoper: I still have a moral compass, but by definition, a successful investment is measured by net profit only.
Apocalyptic: <lippoper> a great investment is anything that I get to walk away with more money than I walked in with // so if you pull a scam it's great investement amirite
KRS1: I'm not taking anything personally.
KRS1: Nah, I'm cool
