pankkake: I'm struggling on some words so no audio for now :(
pankkake: maybe I'm not used to poetry
pankkake: I'm going to use my laptop
pankkake: and I didn't hook up the mic thing that should be in front
pankkake: yeah but that's not the issue. I enabled any mic boost option
pankkake: I'm going to do it, but I have to make the mic work first
benkay: i was just practicing.
thestringpuller: lol mircea_popescu is gonna hate what I use mpex for in october XD
mircea_popescu: i mean it's one thing to tell girls they prolly have a great body under the bikini. quite another to cold call people's reading.
reeses: I think it was mainly accenture and mckinsey
reeses: man I wish I kept the source
reeses: I think the big 4
reeses: I can't remember what I seeded it with
mircea_popescu: i just hope for your sake it has great tits.
mircea_popescu: right, but you know what i mean.
mircea_popescu: i distinctly recall a buncha romanian dorks being so fucking impressed with hennessy they put it on their song
mircea_popescu: reeses i guess they'd be a leetal out of touch.
mircea_popescu: domains i mean not emails.
reeses: if it's something I can read on my phone or tablets on the shitter, all the bettterretteerre
mircea_popescu: reeses i wrote a thing and of all the irc people you're possibly the only one misanthropic enough to read it well.
Namworld: hahaha, I'm seeing reviews on websites. Still reviews going into 2012 and giving it high rating.
Namworld: I recall a sci-fi servers with guns and etc.
mircea_popescu: i'm curious.
Namworld: I can probably find it back
mircea_popescu: anyway, this will probably have a npc-ish town in the sense that it's likely the first one will be made by me, but i don't intend for that arrangement to be permanent.
Namworld: I'm afraid I don't remember the name.
Namworld: This looks like the dream game I've always wanted.
Namworld: Well I love how it's looking right now.
mircea_popescu: i have not yet heard anyone say "you know what, i think it'll suck". either i'm really good at filtering my circle or else this game may be too cool to make.
Namworld: I love family line games
dexX7: but i agree
Namworld: I hadn't noticed that post about the game.
mircea_popescu: chinese forums i never heard of heard of eulora.
mircea_popescu: "Even the NO side, which I imagine is supported by all of the #bitcoin-assets fanboys"
mircea_popescu: i used to do that back in the glory days of the pmbs, coupla years ago, with the synth assets.
pankkake: I wonder if they will take fees
ChaangNoi: i wonder if one guy just sold everything at market, odd
ChaangNoi: is there something going on that i dont know about? why are all stocks way down?
dexX7: pankkake: well i guess it would tend to "no" anyway
mircea_popescu: i'm gonna start collecting these.
toffoo: but I've been thinking about it and it's really only a 1% edge,
mircea_popescu: jurov i see it went.
mircea_popescu: i should perhaps write to explain the entire us corn situation, seeing how im probably the only one that both understands it and isn't sworn to secrecy
asciilifeform: i think the only reason this didn't go into mass production was that its energy-negative
mircea_popescu: if i were teaching a nuclear physics class the next assignment would be,
mircea_popescu: and within a day i have working asic floor tile
mircea_popescu: that';d be the fucking end oif it, when i go to cash and carry, buy two sacks of nano particulate silicone cement
jurov: i'd prefer to just stick to their 2016 projection
jurov: if i read it correctly, now we have 8.58E-19 $/Transistor/Hz
asciilifeform: damn it all, i'm still waiting for SlaveCoin.
mircea_popescu: you will get roughly half the cost of your power usage back as bitcoin, i iamgine.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i don't doubt that an asic heater would shit money if you installed one today. question is about the endgame.
mircea_popescu: im sorry, i meant 98.5%
mircea_popescu: i don't see what diff it makes, outside of perhaps being the avenue through which govts will try and limit the practice if they somehow decide they want that
mircea_popescu: the considerable part, i mean. for instance many resistors emit light when under working conditions
mircea_popescu: i had mine hacked to say 13/37
asciilifeform: actually the turbo on every 486 i've owned just turned off the cpu cache. the little LED freq. display was a lie.
benkay: i don't think we've drawn sufficiently rigorous boundaries around the various systems to talk like that, asciilifeform
benkay: although fpga arrays are how i'm going to heat the next office
benkay: market inefficiencies. i don't have bandwidth to do everything myself.
asciilifeform: i mean, at some point in the none-too-distant future, the expected yield is... zero? correct?
asciilifeform: the argument i was trying to make is that mining needs a certain minimal return for it to make sense even as a space heater replacement.
asciilifeform: benkay: I was talking about the amount of energy spent in producing the chips
dub: I called milk back in 19dickety2
mircea_popescu: i prefer to look at bitcoin flows rather than the crazy threads.
dub: sadly looking at the labcorn thread I can't see her having made any impact
Duffer1: oh i know man
Duffer1: i can't decide what they sound like more: desperate scammers, or desperate incompetents
pankkake: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=263445.msg3155468#msg3155468 wow, I didn't see those earlier
thestringpuller: oh yea I forgot we have one: MPEx
Duffer1: oh i agree MP
kakobrekla: i know of better ways
thestringpuller: I'll take 25 btc worth
thestringpuller: i like how we're all sitting here watching this actually happen
mircea_popescu: i thought all you did was hunt bargains
Namworld: I can't bargain apparently.
benkay: i'm reading papers though not twitter
benkay: i dunno
benkay: i'd be willing to accept their claims that they work on quantum computation
mircea_popescu: and importantly, i'm not aware there's a "quantum computer community"
benkay: i'm hazarding that someone with oodles of resources may have come up with a fast way to factor big integers
benkay: and given that the nsa figured out the fundamentals of rsa before rivest shamir and adelman, i'd bet they have a functional quantum emulator in silicon
benkay: operation whatver, i forget the precise name of the situation
benkay: i'm beginning to suspect that all crypto is broken and that this is a distraction a la dropping the dead diver in the water with important papers w/r/t spies to cover up the Enigma cracking circa wwii
Namworld: I still follow the USA's screw ups, yes
benkay: if you believe that i have an asic ipo to sell you
thestringpuller: she was like "That is the sexiest spreadsheet I've ever seen"
benkay: i want to hear more about this
Namworld: You popped out of nowhere with that. Did I do something or what?
jurov: i know. just wanted to see if he reacts
thestringpuller: I STAY ICY HOT DEEZ NIGGAS benkay
benkay: actually i prefer the Notorious BIG's approach:
benkay: i will rain steel death upon ye
benkay: you'll note i can still pay my armsmen
benkay: i'm sufficiently isolated to not care
mircea_popescu: i hope you realise this means war!!
benkay: listen, if i'm privileged, i don't have to deal with your idiot notions of power.
thestringpuller: i'm privileged you would even show up to this fake shit
pankkake: I had about ~10 listeners
pankkake: I used to publish podcasts where I basically talked about/to myself
