asciilifeform: i once tried to buy some ups batteries on 'craigslist', then stood about in a parking lot for an hour
pigeons: i really can't use anything without a physical keyboard, waste of time
BingoBoingo: I don't much understand the appeal of a browser in the pocket.
nubbins`: i have a ton of them, having broken my first one and purchasing a good one the second time around
ThickAsThieves: i still have mine
asciilifeform: i did it with pencil, but wrote a compiler of the language to test: http://www.loper-os.org/?p=103
asciilifeform: as far as i'm concerned, they blew it when they went with 'userspace process on top of unix' when designing 'ab initio computer'.
mircea_popescu: haha. i'm pretty certain they blew their one chance to be part of the taking over tghe world crew.
asciilifeform: but i don't think he had caught the pgp train yet, back then.
mircea_popescu: i don't take unsigned things to be literal.
mircea_popescu: a i c
mircea_popescu: is he moreover using unfortunate terminology to denote "i'd rather know who the fuck the dukes are" ?
asciilifeform: i just emailed him my (not a secret at all) meatspace name.
mircea_popescu: that's the most ridiculous thing i ever heard.
pankkake: I don't think so. it's a good way to "cash out" your btc without going through the hassle of an exchange
pankkake: note to bitbet mods whoever they are: remove the "" around Scarlett in the title of the starcraft bet, I messed up (but already sent the wager)
mircea_popescu: nm i take it all back, they can have 6%
pigeons: i dont think they are interested in the content, they seem like marketers
mircea_popescu: i think it'd rather shoot some bowside snark and let it be at that lol
mircea_popescu: i could just email him omg.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves i don't care that much tbh.
pankkake: I've been out of the loop
Duffer1: i don't think i've ever seen scarlett play competitively, i saw her casting at homestory cup, she sounds like she knows her game
pankkake: I wouldn't call 12 BTC a "showmatch", though they're probably filthy rich already
pankkake: :D no scarlett vs. naniwa showmatch (that I didn't know about)
jurov: where i'm so far betting with myself
jurov: thestringpuller: i meant the cardano bet
thestringpuller: http://i.imgur.com/HH9mqRc.jpg - what is bitcoin?
truffles: feels like i just woke up, but it was 10 hrs ago, is time passing me by??
jurov: thestringpuller: and just few hours ago i have argued with mircea about advertising
BingoBoingo: I have yet to see a cardano preorder commitment regime
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: I don't know if there is one worth mentioning.
thestringpuller: so I mean revenue is sure to come through unless the ipo is bubbling like boiling water
thestringpuller: the only companies I would personally invest in is S.NSA, S.MPOE, or S.BBET
azoo: I recall from few years back that there was a site on which someone could buy shares for BC related companies
BingoBoingo: pankkake: The choice though I imagine ends up to being throw money at code or throw money at chips.
pankkake: well I hope netbsd devs actually understand the code their are touching
mircea_popescu: i think that's more of a ltc thing, no one cares but it can't hurt to have around.
mircea_popescu: not really related tho, from what i gather urbit was actually a from-scratch thing
BingoBoingo: It's like how apparently MINIX 3 i supposed to be a big thing when they just made small changes to the MINIX kernel and just ripped the old NetBSD userland.
BingoBoingo: Yeah. I figured they would.
KRS|Gotchawallet: yes a count would wear a cape..hmm. it would be cool to be a duke. i have a friend who became a minister by sending an application and paying a $14 dollar service charge. isnt that weird.
KRS|Gotchawallet: nobody wears capes in the U.S. i suppose if you did you would worry people
mircea_popescu: KRS|Gotchawallet i thought capes were for cunts.
mircea_popescu: seeing how the modern state has legislated itself into a corner, i don't see it i tell you.
Apocalyptic: i get what you mean, but do you thing this specific info I quoted isn't accurate ?
BingoBoingo: I might have to read a bit. Didn't know his new UK project has backing.
BingoBoingo: Knowing whether he was actually hacked or just stole shit because bitcoin is unknowab le except under certain conditions. I'm just rambling in light of how his trust fell, about how in the best case for him his incompetence prevents his handling of this from being the best case, or the second best case with respect to a claim to competence he might have offered or professed to have offered in the past.
Apocalyptic: oh I see
BingoBoingo: If TF borrowed from Coinlenders personally though and Inputs.io was hacked, it would seem paying inputs borrowers with coinlenders funds would be most prudent. They are related through the same operator. i am simply imagining how action should have happened in the most charitable situation, the unlikely one in which there was an actual hack and no relic collectors.
Apocalyptic: oh i think that's beyound doubt
BingoBoingo: I wish
Apocalyptic: I thought all loans were secured
BingoBoingo: A problem I am seeing though is that if TradeFortress was the primary borrower from Coinlenders and ran both Input.io and Coinlenders under TradeFortress that this might actually should have been a Coinlenders default.
pankkake: I'm not arguing that
pankkake: yeah, but I've seen them talk about something similar lately
pankkake: I've seen the thing - https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/2964
fiat500: last i heard a fix had been specced out
fiat500: no i mean by the devs
fiat500: i'd love to see some recent numbers for those
pankkake: eheh, that's what I'm doing (running a node with good connectivity/many connections)
fiat500: i think they need a math refresher
pankkake: I just try to understand :)
pankkake: so it's just to feel good I guess
Apocalyptic: that's why i'm sitting out this mining frenzy
fiat500: i envy TAT for virtualmine, that was also genius
fiat500: i made a few btc on difficulty futures
fiat500: i remember the DMS thing haha
fiat500: but i felt my anecdote was representative of the state of affairs, most setups have similar stories
Apocalyptic: i don't see the Deprived's DMS as a destruction of wealth , though it's most creative for sure
Apocalyptic: <fiat500> mining and derivative mining products // I disagree with the latter
BingoBoingo: Duffer1 has claimed the bounty for finding the article per: "Sometime late last year, a publication released an article on Bitcoin Barons or Bitcoin movers and shakers that was linked to recently and I can't seem to find the link anymore. Among the listed names were Nefario, Diablo-D3, and Caldwell. It came from a fairly major publication. If any of the aspiring bitpoor are listening on this channel or reading the logs, I'm offeri
fiat500: Apocalyptic: i will say that this is the most creative destruction of wealth i've seen
KRS|Gotchawallet: i guess
Apocalyptic: fiat500, I don't remember specific names but if you browse a bit on the forums i'm sure you 'll find some
BingoBoingo: I think a safe rule of thumb for anything BTC is that Mining=Scam until delivery.
fiat500: i feel like the people who threw money at 100th really just dont want to know what happened
fiat500: i guess we have greatly divergent definitions of cold :P
Apocalyptic: i wonder why he was thinking
fiat500: pankkake: why i said i wouldnt have predicted this
pankkake: did they pay the missing dividends? I'm following that loosely
BingoBoingo: fiat500: I'm pretty sure being insolvent due to hack essentially makes picostocks the new cryptostocks
fiat500: as for havelock, i find it surprising that pico is likely to outlast all of the non-mpex bitstock exchanges
BingoBoingo: Sometime late last year, a publication released an article on Bitcoin Barons or Bitcoin movers and shakers that was linked to recently and I can't seem to find the link anymore. Among the listed names were Nefario, Diablo-D3, and Caldwell. It came from a fairly major publication. If any of the aspiring bitpoor are listening on this channel or reading the logs, I'm offering a 0.025 BTC bounty to anyone who can find the link.
pankkake: I thought he was pretty conservative, indeed
pankkake: I only found his weird hosting company on archive.org which at one time was a "buy a hosting business" page
BingoBoingo: I kind of wonder if the end game for Havelock is closure or more of a disintegration into a cryptostocks like ghetto
pankkake: seriously I am the only one WTFing?
gribble: I have not seen yournuts.
gribble: I have not seen stringpuller.
defaced: i beat the fuck outa
Apocalyptic: i'm sure you are you, how is that revelant to why you're not wishing to work @vupen eludes me
asciilifeform: because i'm me.
asciilifeform: nor do i particularly wish to be vupen.
asciilifeform: but i'm not vupen. and, afaik, you are also not vupen.
Apocalyptic: i somehow assumed in this case of business they pay prior to delivery
copumpkin: I figured
Apocalyptic: depends who you sell to / where i guess
Apocalyptic: i heard it's kinda badly paid, for what it is
Apocalyptic: i know some guys working @Vupen
