nubbins`: i mean, they do have like a handful of employees
asciilifeform: wtf is with 'virtex' anyway. every time i think 'xilinx'. what's next? btc product called 'coca cola' ?
nubbins`: anyway, time i guess to make sure my virtex account is cleared out.
nubbins`: i know plenty of cock suckers who are upstanding members of the community
nubbins`: i know right? one guy sneezed a couple times
nubbins`: "oh no, i'm allergic to the marihuana"
asciilifeform: i'll give it a shot.
asciilifeform: perhaps, i'd love to dig him up & ask him
asciilifeform: i.e. all the features.
pankkake: I mean, I like both sluts and tongues. and this girl, EW
mircea_popescu: for a moment i thought there actually is a pron starlet named miley cyprus
mircea_popescu: i can't believe they still do nude panties.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla over lunch i was loling with one mod, because she observed that "well, for many people bitbet is a great proposition because not only it allows them to win, but also it prevents them from spending their btc in the interval.
Duffer1: 6months? that's first i've seen of it
mircea_popescu: i mean, it responded to half year's worth of pressure nicely. but it isn't enough.
Duffer1: i wonder who their target market is that isn't already serviced by localbitcoins
mircea_popescu: yeah i don;'t quite grok what it's supposed to be. thought maybe the owner is here.
pankkake: I'd pay 0.05 BTC just to say "butts"
pankkake: lol, I could have bought one
mikaeldice: I have addressed a couple of small problems that other games haven't, but I'm not at all convinced that it'll stand up to the signal:noise ratio with so many sites out there now. Time will tell eventually
asciilifeform: i still think the phootoore of btc games is battles of wits, not luck
BingoBoingo: Well, I mean the problem with new dice sites is that the barrier of entry is high. Just-Dice got to eat Satoshi-Dice's lunch because it offered something very different and in many ways better. SatoshiDice's new tribute game is going no where because... In spite of their establish name the new game just sucks.
mikaeldice: I'm not too worried about this one.. "How Does Dicelead Proof Us Each Roll Is Legitimate? dicelead is provably fair which mean you can verfiy each roll is absolutely fair ,so we are only run dicelead.com for fair purpose and no way to change any result of it" ah, well, okay then
Namworld: I should play it again...
asciilifeform: my partner at one of the places i wurk was hired because he found a remote 0day for... warcraft 2.
pankkake: I hope so!
asciilifeform: but i was young once
pankkake: still I enjoy watching sc2, even if I don't really play it
Namworld: I see
pankkake: and I realize I probably bet on the wrong horse :(
pankkake: oh, there are many, but I don't have an account on those places
pankkake: no one really talking about the sc2 match on bitcointalk. not sure where I could promote the bet… ☟︎
BingoBoingo: I've seen corn in oat and wheat fields, but not invading land covered by thistles.
BingoBoingo: Soil and latitude and probably other things make a difference. It would not have been a long walk this fall to fields where corn tainted soybean fields. I'll grant it though that the soil in the fields and around them may not be soild for any natural definition of the term, but may merely be a nitrogen soaked fascimile
mircea_popescu: i have had the occasion to see this in nature, as romania had for over a decade a lot of ignored agricultural land.
mircea_popescu: matybe, i'ven ot really been following the entire "green technologies" stuff.
mircea_popescu: i doubt they do. they may inadvertently acquire "rights" to unrelated people's great ideas through the latter's negligence/cluelessness
BingoBoingo: I imagine universities still come up with unique and useful things, though anyone who cares would be loath to find their release instead of simply reinventing them.
mircea_popescu: i doubt anything useful, interesting or valuable is coming out of universities anymore.
mikaeldice: On that I have no idea
BingoBoingo: b0n1: If I have one, which I am hesistant to say whether I myself do or not it isn't for sale or open source. I think if something exists and is useful that there is probably an open source implementation or an alternative...
b0n1: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/Bitcoin.php thats the only thing i found
b0n1: also i couldnt get informations about a sierrachart api on their homepage
b0n1: or do i really have to switch to windows
Duffer1: ah i see
b0n1: hey there! is there a good source for historical data of the bitcoin exchanges like gox stamp and btcchina? By good source I mean relatively dense data with small time intervals. On bitcoincharts for example I can only find historical data with time intervals that are bigger than a day for example
BingoBoingo: Thank you Apocalyptic, but I wasn't the first to say that.
pankkake: I don't think any smartphone application is a full node already?
Duffer1: checkpointing is an option i've heard talked about
BingoBoingo: I hope I did well asciilifeform et al: http://www.thedrinkingrecord.com/2013/12/14/the-failure-of-urbit-and-the-bitcoins-future-of-computing/
KRS|Gotyawallet: i was just curious..and how exactly did the French decide the death of bitcoin?
KRS|Gotyawallet: Apocalyptic: so the blockchain isnt going to be an issue in the future like that article said? I dont know a lot about it but I'm interested in it and wondered about future growth.
pankkake: yeah, I think - with a bit of hope - that when it happens it won't matter
pankkake: and I believe it will
pankkake: I was a big fan of kitetoa.com when I was young
Apocalyptic: i did because i thought these guys were sensible to start with
Apocalyptic: i wouldn't mention a random negative btc article here
pankkake: I think I probably ignore anything starting by reflets.info, reading it now
pankkake: I'm sure it can be changed in the future, when it makes sense (i.e. much faster connections and cheaper storage)
mircea_popescu: i think you may be not the first to make that experience
mike_c: plus, everytime i undercut the bot's margin I get beat up :)
mircea_popescu: on the other hand i can understand the disbelief, people with any experience looking at options are aghast to see mpex spreads.
mircea_popescu: mpoe moves relatively very little, i was just looking through early feb/march logs and it was trading 65-70
mircea_popescu: i wish there were more airplanes for 10k a pop on the market, for instance
mircea_popescu: i guess we all wish for more liquidity at better prices, but this is probably true universally.
mike_c: yeah, i agree that is the correct long-term thinking. which is the way you operate. I just wish for moar liquidity at times.
mircea_popescu: this obviously is a distinction btc people would gladly blur, but i think it'd be pretty dangerous/irresponsible to allow it just yet.
Namworld: I suppose I could eventually.
Namworld: I don't use my MPEx account much, if at all, recently. No options at a premium I like.
mircea_popescu: Oct 28 17:17:15 <thestrin1puller>but in all srsness i think i may fork over money for an mpex account
Apocalyptic: I just don't understand where that arrogance come from given they're utterly clueless
mircea_popescu: i can read french just fine
Namworld: I don't need to, I can just read that...
mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic you can tell them that when i decide playground is over, i'll just shut down these4 alleged "central banks"
Apocalyptic: i guess you have 1 more name to add to your infamous list
Apocalyptic: by the way mircea, i just read one of the worst article about "why is bitcoin gonna fail" from french dudes who are otherwise sensible
CheckDavid: I see.
CheckDavid: Am i correct in my rationale?
CheckDavid: Yeah, that was the point I was trying to get to
asciilifeform: in all seriousness, i won't be surprised if folks start x-raying batteries before this is over.
asciilifeform: sadly, i'm all out.
Apocalyptic: urbit is dead I heard
jurov: i know :)
jurov: that's why i hope there will be some marketing in contemporary sense
jurov: i know (although only in software)
asciilifeform: don't get me wrong, I'm glad somebody wants to buy these things
asciilifeform: that's all I'll say on the subject
pankkake: I can log on
pankkake: I wouldn't have sold at loss because of the "news"
KRS-: i was seeing funny shit with huge buy and sells when this started
ThickAsThieves: though i dont see how this news has any effect on Neo
pankkake: anyway if I rebuy it will be at the lmb thing so it actually gets to the company
pankkake: I can have cheap shares!
KRS|Gotchawallet: i have not seen such destruction of wealth since 1970s Jimmy Carter era Washington DC, USA.
ThickAsThieves: registered msb i assume
jurov: Although... while i can imagine shareholders dealing with the virgins
ThickAsThieves: i figured out the source of these strange emails
deadweasel: I'm a Mainah now though :) Getting CLOSE!
nubbins`: i can now take a photograph of the front and back of a cheque
nubbins`: i had a great idea for 3d printing an adjustable-length squeegee handle last night
