wogwog_: Anduck: I didn't know the outcome. punin could have fixed the 400Gh unit and shipped it by sept 1.
wogwog_: guys, punin himself admitted the '400Gh unit' doesn't do 400Gh... i dont know what else to say....
pankkake: I mean Yes
pankkake: I'm saying the *best* in the sense of fractal, not mine - I think it's a No
wogwog_: Anduck: if someone uses the same statements as me, they must have been reading this chat, and think that i have good points to make.

pankkake: I wouldn't do something I would consider unethical (like spamming, lying)
pankkake: paid papers published too - I knew a guy who did that. what he wrote wasn't *wrong* though, nor lies
dexX7: yesterday i asked about how much you invested and you mentioned that it's negatable, thus i believe your goal is not to be reimbursed, so i ask: what is your goal? being annoying as much as you can?
pankkake: but I don't get anything I can actually fullfil
wogwog_: You've just assumed that I bet.
wogwog_: Anduck. I didn't bet. I'm just defending the NO side.
wogwog: no. i'm spreading the truth. that the bet was fraudlenty passed as yes
pankkake: wogwog: any respected client (i.e. no web irc crap) shows hostmasks of people who join

mircea_popescu: in the immortal words of jeff goldblum in the fly, "i'm more like a supply chain manager"
nubbins`: i think with even low quantity (5-10k units) i can get these HW wallets made insanely cheap
pankkake: http://www.zerohedge.com/contributed/2013-09-07/exactly-i-warned-cyprusization-goes-mainstream-ireland-tap-next-citizen-fund-
nubbins`: it's so simple that i'm surprised it hasn't been done already
nubbins`: oh, i've got it all figured out, and it's brilliantly simple. i just don't have any contacts with the hardware know-how.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` i can see collecting a few hundred btc for making a hardware wallet if you can convince you know wtf you're doing.
nubbins`: i've got some ideas about an e-ink based hardware wallet that i haven't fully thought through, maybe i could collect 600 BTC in an ipo as well
nubbins`: well, i'm not sure how much learning takes place
mircea_popescu: nubbins` i think it's a good lesson really.
mircea_popescu: pankkake i made the mistake of querying the mod that did it. here you go : "because wtf is mtgox already! look they've been announcing ltc for like a year. it's a dying dog saying it's going to start eating rabbits, i'm not taking bets on whether it actually does. besides, they're a known group of scammers and liars, what's to keep them from fronting ltc trades? and then obviously even if they did manage to implement t

mircea_popescu: pankkake well to me it reads like a variant of "I will publish the number 15 on my website by end of year".
pankkake: "Will MT. GOX be trading Litecoin as a currency before the end of 2013? " why was this rejected? I don't how it is unverifiable
nubbins`: i thought you had to run
nubbins`: i agree there, substantially != absolutely
fractal_: ok i gotta run
nubbins`: i'm ok with this
fractal_: if i knew that the decider was going to not follow logic
fractal_: yes, i would agree that the bullshit bet was poorly worded bullshit and i shouldn't have bet
fractal_: i was. thats what im saying
nubbins`: that's what i'm saying
fractal_: nubbins`: no, i was correct in that the 400Gh unit would not hash at 400Gh
fractal_: mp: i should have done that in hindsight , of course
fractal_: i got robbed
fractal_: i placed the bet because i didn't think the hardware was going to perform as advertised -- and it didn't
nubbins`: whoever made the bet should have been more specific, i guess
mircea_popescu: nubbins` i hear there's a ~5btc budget.
fractal_: <pankakke> i dare you to come in here every day and complain. <--- challenge accepted
nubbins`: mircea_popescu: i can get paid to do this??!?!
nubbins`: i renovated my bathroom last month, and i purchased a new shower unit
nubbins`: i thought you had a valid beef, but you're just squabbling over semantics because you lost money
Duffer1: ThickAsThieves if I buy one xbond will that allow me to buy as many pre-ipvo shares as I can get my hands on, or do I have to redeem 1 xbond per neobee?
mircea_popescu: and i'm looking at you jcpham
nubbins`: okay, so everyone seems to have gone silent, which i guess means that people who ordered "400 gigahash mining units" received 400GH/s+ at <= 400W
nubbins`: can i just get a clear answer on one thing: are people who ordered the "400 gigahash mining unit" receiving 400GH/s+ at 400W, regardless of the form it takes?
nubbins`: mircea_popescu: i'm greedy, i don't return free things
nubbins`: i mean, the bet says the macbook must have 2 screens, and see? two screens
nubbins`: i own both
Bunnyh: fractal: ok, though i don't remember saying anything here :P
nubbins`: I'm gonna introduce a bet that Apple makes a dual-screen laptop in 2013, and then i'm going to order a macbook and an iPhone, and claim that when they both show up, it's a dual-screen laptop
mircea_popescu: i wonder if the rabinical council of lvov ever saw such heartfelt contention !
mircea_popescu: nubbins` i have no idea, but i think it's a ridiculous criteria.
Luke-Jr: I didn't even know who the yes betters were until just now
deizel: so, "Coffee must meet advertised capacity (400ml per cup)" and I give you two cups, each with less than 400ml...
mircea_popescu: well i asked for nothing, myself.
fractal: I want my coffee in 1 CUP
fractal: I got 400ml in 2 cups....
fractal: I wanted 400ml in 1 cup
nubbins`: then i've obviously not delivered on your absolute
nubbins`: however, if you request 500ml of coffee at 90C, and I bring 437ml of coffee at 45C...
nubbins`: mircea_popescu: suppose i bring you a bowl of coffee instead?
nubbins`: i would say you press enter too frequently
fractal: nubbins`: why, sir, I would say you are correct.
nubbins`: to be fair, i only started learning english as an infant, but i'm pretty sure the word "must" is an absolute
mircea_popescu: i won't intervene in cases where one party is pissed off with the judge's ruling.
mircea_popescu: i might intervene in cases where judges are drunk
mircea_popescu: im not the judge. the closest approximation would be i am the minister of justice.
nubbins`: i'm mildly surprised you guys can't come to an agreement on this between yourselves
Luke-Jr: I'm not trying to define a unit.
