mjr_: lol i'm a little rusty
asciilifeform: anybody got a closet full of dell 1950s? i'd pay quite a bit more than 500 for your Fluxbabbitt.
BingoBoingo: Well, looking at it it seems most of the BTC bet were in the 3rd and 4th bets which just kind of set the odds. Beyond that there was another 11 BTC bet, so even then I guess even early last year the big bets were BTC navel gazing.
BingoBoingo: It doesn't seem like it for the most part. I wonder if the Super Bowl will touch the roughly 100 BTC combined it did last year on the lower weight bet.
BingoBoingo: In spite of reduced weight http://bitbet.us/bet/650/florida-state-to-win-bcs-national-championship-low/ never leveled out. I guess I'm pulling for Auburn to win on Tuesday.
BingoBoingo: Looks like it. I guess the holiday lul if officially over now. I guess it is time to see if there is a climb like last spring that leaves mircea_popescu a multi-Billionaire
Duffer1: it's why i was curious is all :P
mircea_popescu: if that is all you've got on the prosecution side, i'm dismissing each one in turn.

Duffer1: oh i agree
mircea_popescu: i mean principally three things.
mircea_popescu: i thought the guy quit
mircea_popescu: i have no idea who the guy is, nor do i really care. california's problems are not fixable anyway.
ThickAsThieves: i'm unclear where he whored, likely my own ignorance to the situation
Duffer1: i'm not sure if it's a weak argument or not, it could very well be a total lie since they're under no obligation to be accurate
ThickAsThieves: i dunno, i assume someone has to be the asshole to tell everyone the math dont add up
Duffer1: i'm just trying to give you a picture of just how bad it is here, that washington post article doesn't really capture it
ThickAsThieves: i dont know much about that race, but the argument seems to be "This guy made the budget in a year when there was no money"
kakobrekla: mike_c nice work on the bitbet dividends, what a mess. time to automate the thingy i guess. ☟︎
benkay: i thought that sort of code twattery was for the slaves?

pankkake: "Yes, my mistake/misunderstanding: the unit I received is apparently an engineering sample."
mircea_popescu: pity she never amounted to anything in feminism, i'd much rather mock her than luminaries a la that fat chick, what's her name.
BingoBoingo: John Lennon, but I'm not sure I want the Yoko Ono
mircea_popescu: "I resent being an artist, in that respect, I resent performing for fucking idiots who don't know anything. They can't feel. I’m the one that’s feeling, because I’m the one that is expressing."
mircea_popescu: i think that's a different trope
jurov: anyway, i don't see why it shouldn't be a right that at least someone should care. of course not everyone.
jurov: i'm tired today :(
mircea_popescu: there's millions of little noises my ears filter out. i lose something when i'm deaf to entropic noise ?
mircea_popescu: this is flat out nonsense. i don't care about most of the ~10 bn extras the earth is carrying.
jurov: where did i speak about rights?
jurov: i don't see how one can avoid some sadness when thinking about others
nubbins`: i haven't lost power here yet
nubbins`: storm's picking up, i'm thinking that tomorrow i'll have to shovel out the windows again
mircea_popescu: well but how. if i could put it in a pill we could all start exchanges and reddit's dream of progress and equality could finally be realised.
jurov: and i'm really curious how would mircea prevent someone pulling the same on mpex
asciilifeform: wait - i thought 'havelock' was an evil spam exchange?
mircea_popescu: i don't have a smartphone thingee
ll_: i think the +/- is enough to an idea

rbonestell: http://i.imgur.com/3tFyqv9.png
rbonestell: I have 5 people testing it right now- found and resolved a few issues. Went from alpha to beta, might go production in a week or so if nothing seriously is found.
rbonestell: I'm looking for beta testers for a Havelock portfolio Android app on Google Play- anyone?
BW^-: bingoboingo: ok, I talked at -otc and they were almost completely unserious
asciilifeform: i said 'unit cost', perhaps that wasn't the correct term
the20year: It is a whopping 50% more efficient than what I buy at lowes for 50 cents a square foot
KRS1: aerogel is badass i wanted to buy some of it
the20year: i guess a sewage plant in texas is now selling the waste as fertilizer, making a ton off it
the20year: at some point , i want to bury a few connex boxes to keep temperature stable
KRS1: i have to put on long pants for once
KRS1: i know how you feel-cold in florida today, probably 65-low 60's
the20year: These have afterburners/scrubbers on them, the people I know that use them are heating 2000sf+ houses with just a cord of wood per year

the20year: I don't have a fireplace in my house , next houe we have will absolutely have one. My neighbor just put one in his house though
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Of course not, but I'm thinking such thoughts would be attractive to the mining mindset.
mircea_popescu: i don't think the concept of dirty existed in the universe this thing was made.
BingoBoingo: I'm kind of suprised people who claim to be running mining farms aren't talking about stirling engines and heat recovery.
mircea_popescu: <nubbins`> i've got a camp stove that takes kerosene, diesel, naphtha, and even unleaded gasoline << i used to have a car that took all that, also alcohol, toluene, etc
nubbins`: i wonder if the off-the-grid crowd uses these
the20year: the ones i've seen, by people who were supposed to be experts were all way more innefiicent and more expensive than a standard steam turbine system using a solar trough
the20year: last sterling engine I saw that 'd produce 25 watts was about $500
nubbins`: i've got a camp stove that takes kerosene, diesel, naphtha, and even unleaded gasoline
nubbins`: i'd buy several of those
asciilifeform: i'm rather surprised those 'laptop-sized' stirling engines never caught on
nubbins`: i just shook my head as i purchased the last kerosene heater
nubbins`: you'd be amazed at the number of people i saw at the hardware store loading up on propane.
asciilifeform: i overheard my neighbours talking about dumping their savings into AM some time ago

mircea_popescu: what will 2020 bring, i wonder, "bfl will deliver android sex bots" ?
ozbot: The Holy Grail I wish I could kiss the author of Bitmessage on his face.
BingoBoingo: I've submitted the BitBet and sent a bit to fund yes. I dunno if him getting substantial jailtime in his criminal case later this month would help or hurt the chances of yes winning.
mircea_popescu: he had a lengthy history of dubious relations with basically unfuckworthy women, is more of what i had in mind
mircea_popescu: i thought this was well established ? something new there ?
BingoBoingo: I'm looking at the Pirate Ponzi filings on PACER and it looks like we can add being a deadbeat to things Mr. Shavers sucks at in addition to all of the other things in his fail pile
mircea_popescu: im sure glad i'm not here at some eatery among unfriendly ozarks people waiting for my payment to clear tho
mircea_popescu: 41 blocks over the past 345 minutes. i guess it's about there.

BingoBoingo: I hear people in both those channels could always use more fiat
asciilifeform: i'd love to see the perl script this came out of!
BW^-: arskiss,duffer1: there were no followup Q:s so I guess this means that's not your thing
