mircea_popescu: uh. if you have servers you'd have to be insane to use rented hardware oyu manage yourself. either colo your own metal or else have the fucking dc handle it if you don't give a shit.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform who exactly is doomed to grunt on recent hardware
mircea_popescu: but i suppose putting more steam behind openbsd can't hurt.
mircea_popescu: dude don't tell me the forum muppetry actually fucks itself to memorialize being fucked.
mircea_popescu: "If you have ever been F#CKED using BTCitcoin for something this would be a great way to memorialize that as well."
mircea_popescu: it's also the one to most famously rebel against its status, but so what of that.
mircea_popescu: artist is a servile profession. the long and the short of it.
mircea_popescu: yeah, this i true in the reverse. bloggers that write for someone else aren't much more than buskers.
mircea_popescu: jurov except then they're not real artists. just buskers.
mircea_popescu: there is no economically viable path for "artists" outside of mooching off the sovereign.
mircea_popescu: total ocd case, she'd actually pluck her hairs by hand, braid them in threes then braid the results and on it went.
mircea_popescu: jurov i used to know this chick that wore a bracelet she made out of her pubic hair.
mircea_popescu: i imagine it makes little sense to have anymore at all, tbh.
mircea_popescu: because at the time idiots honestly thought the "internet funbux" angle can be pushed.
mircea_popescu: it had its political importance at the time, these aren;'t really remembered today, but at some point i had to go into fucking something awful forums and argue with the idiots as to why bitcoin actualy is valuable.
mircea_popescu: it made perfect sense to have a coin with something more than nothing's worth of bitcoin in it.
mircea_popescu: mike_c you gotta ppreciate, when the cas coins were a thing, 50 btc was like 100 bux
mircea_popescu: wait, the original wankers don't like wanking anymore ?
mircea_popescu: jesus fuck i want a buttcoin.org account. the stupidity bitcoin brings out from i dunno where...
mircea_popescu: the pretense to value through "unique" and "design" and trhe usual bullcrap is supposedly endless.
mircea_popescu: there;s going to be a flood of these. the marginal cost to make small metal discs is about zero
mircea_popescu: something tells me this is going to be the biggest problem of bitcoin finance. to earn a living as a rentier you'll have to own a shitton of 'em.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i suppose in all fairness the byzantino-rabinical approach to the written text as deployed for the needs of bitbet is a special kind of hell for all esl speakers.
mircea_popescu: yeah, turns out running a safe investment fund in btc is harder than in usd. who'd have thunk it!
mircea_popescu: and if it does, no lost anyway, it's just a matter of how the yes pot is split up.
mircea_popescu: kinda impossible for that clause to affect you at all if price doesn't go under 250.
mircea_popescu: but what the bet says is that if bitcoin goes under 250 tomorrow, all yes bets but the first two wil be refunded.
mircea_popescu: well i don't know the future for sure, as it happens. just kinda close.
mircea_popescu: and it's a moot point in any case, the 30th was 4 days ago.
mircea_popescu: you're misreading it'd seem. what the bet says is that the first two yes bets never get refunded
mircea_popescu: listen, make complete sentences, i can't follow what you're saying.
mircea_popescu: What kind of retard created this bet? Closing in 5 months?? why??? a bunch of people are just going to bet on Yes whenever they see difficulty is going to be down during the year, what's the point of this bet??
