BingoBoingo: And
a 68K mac and Amiga aren't that different.
BingoBoingo: C++ in college felt like
a serious step back from 68K ASM
BingoBoingo: For roughly 18 months... I thought I was kind not knowing that... 68k largely died
a decade earlier.
BingoBoingo: Also Freebsd didn't boot back then without custom kernel options inaccessible to dude whose previous computer acquired in 2000 was
a B&W MAc
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Well, ports tend to have
a longer lag.
BingoBoingo: If I had
a spot welder of any quality though my first project would be patching the damned holw in my canoe.
BingoBoingo: Solaris 10 Express and Windows 2K were the only things I found that respected the fact it had
a battery back in '04
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Most people don't. This was my first computer with
a color screen. Bought it the summer before starting college.
BingoBoingo: I have
a dell Latitude LS if you want another challenge, decent, but not spectacular keyboard.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: How many OS's did you have to try before finding one that was merely sufficiently code correct with
a Pentium MMX to boot at all, on the Libretto?
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: Well Cryptostocks is still
a thing after having two years as an irrelevant thing.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform:
A blow job, for the reciever seems to share many properties of stage magic for an audience.
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: Depending on definitions 1 year to 7 months late is... Disappointing. Maybe I should start
a mining security. Specify what I am mining is limestone. Only offer the IPO on Bitcointalk.
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: Did I miss news. Is there
a reason Gox is dying moar this week rather than last?
BingoBoingo: I find proof of destruction most interesting in seeing as it offers
a parent the chance to literally sell
a child's birthright.
BingoBoingo: Didn't think much of that last night though. I priced how much do I hate dentists versus how much do I love those pliers. Discussions of how much there might be
a market of people wanting to buy the teeth be damned
BingoBoingo: What also makes me curious is how someone with Boron Bitride Balls would be able to knock up
a bitch.
BingoBoingo: In the eu, chalenge response. In the US impaling. For Asia, africa and Eastern europe probably flip
a coin.
BingoBoingo: Well, bank card numbers were
a horrible idea in the first place.
BingoBoingo:
A simple solution to that problems seems to be tasting unpalatable to the ants...
BingoBoingo: (Pricing
a time for BTC-E's failure is likely harder because their falure mode is probably just running with coins and letting the dollars be damned.)
BingoBoingo: I imagine the inside of gmaxwell's mouth to be
a smooth, wet, and silky place. Perfect for any dick to get sucked.
BingoBoingo: Oh, it is amazing how healty the fiat-BTC interface is. Choices consist of 1. AN exchange with no fiat (Gox) 2. Two cans and
a string (Stamp) 3. Completely anon operators (BTC-E) or 4. Getting off the fucking couch and actually meeting people.
BingoBoingo: Fuck you don't even need anything as nice as
a duffelbag. Plastic grocerybag usually works.
BingoBoingo: deanclkclk: Well,
a reasonable first step might be letting potential counterparties know where would be most convenient for you to transact?
Namworld: Even if there's
a lot of bullshit dealing with individuals
BingoBoingo: deanclkclk: Your problem is the insistence on
a totally online exchange of your fiat to BTC
BingoBoingo: Bring
a scary looking armed dud with you, encourage your counterparty to do the same, or not
BingoBoingo: Step one: FInd
a person with BTC who wants to sell. Step two buy
a cheap dufflebag and fillit with USD, silver, gold or some combination of those things. Step 3 consumate
a trade.
BingoBoingo: You have
a dick to do that with deanclkclk RIght?
BingoBoingo: deanclkclk: If you want to buy BTC which is the proposition you offered as well as what I offered
a solution to, what you need to do is find people wholding BTC and buy direct.
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: Who could have anticipated people selling be BTC would be
a constraint at
a buying device?
benkay: 'i'm not
a scammer, i just sell tools'
kakobrekla: make
a working site and sell instances of it
kakobrekla: what do you mean, ponzi or
a unpayable loan
midnightmagic: BingoBoingo: That's
a function of weight. By weight, titanium is stronger than steel IIRC.
BingoBoingo: I mean additionally midnightmagic Factors other than the mechanical factor in at some point. If you want to make
a machine that flies, titanium by weight offers obvious advantages over any steel.
mircea_popescu: out of your average highschool you can make maybe five minutes of audio, worth 1mb, 30 seconds of
a movie tops, worth 5 mb
BingoBoingo: Everything in between occurs on
a continuum.
BingoBoingo: midnightmagic: I though that instead the lesson would have been the world consists of compromises. If you make
a control system for
a nuclear weapon,
a well documented and radiation hardened Vaxen is probably the proper tool. If however you want to watch dogs and cats on youtube with no other concerns
a modern intel CoreWTF processor might be ideal.
midnightmagic:
A vanadium annealed bracket would have probably helped. Don't buy any more knives from wherever it is you got that one. :(
BingoBoingo: neat, but irrelevant when you are pulling
a tiny slivers of steel out of your hand and thigh with tweexers.
midnightmagic: That could have been
a defect in the metal or uneven martinsite or cementite formation.
midnightmagic: BingoBoingo: That's
a controllable function of the alloy and/or annealing processes.
BingoBoingo: Who is stonger?
A person who can only bench press 100 lbs, but can do it once per second uninterupted for eight hours or
a person who can bench press
a Dead elephant carcass but three times
a day as his maximum and can only lift lighter weights at
a muximum of 8 times per day
midnightmagic: BingoBoingo: Most of the measures of strength apply to my comparison with titanium on
a per-volume basis.
BingoBoingo: The problem with any filler material for teeth is that the deal life span for such
a patch is 90+ years.
BingoBoingo: Even tungsten carbide drillbits are usually impregnated or coated with the ceramic though with the bulk of the bit remaining steel. Steel is desirable as
a backing material because its failure mode when spinning right round is more desirable than Tungsten Carbide.
BingoBoingo: Who would have anticipated putting
a tazer to clay could be so profitable?
BingoBoingo: Well, for most of human history Aluminum has been included in ceramics while its use as
a metal is very recent.
BingoBoingo: Aluminum oxide would make
a shitty drillbit
mircea_popescu: no but consider
a large enough abrasive wheel or bit : the tooth practically moves liniarly, in its own perspective
BingoBoingo: I'd kind of be scared if there were
a movement teeth could undertake that was equivalent to drilling...
BingoBoingo: Leaking mercury isn't
a problem for
a dentist
mircea_popescu: it may chip, if you accidentally bite down on
a screw or something,
BingoBoingo: Wearing is less problimatic if wearing as
a failure mode prevents violation of an ideally sterile space as opposed to cracking which often violates the sterile space.
mircea_popescu: "Thanks to our technology, we are
a combination of online and offline wallet, We are
a high trusted, safe hybrid cloud wallet."
mircea_popescu: think for
a moment, the space shuttle is not shielded in gold.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Ceramics give
a better likelihood of repeat business than gold does.
BingoBoingo: I.e. Devise
a device that consists of bag full of preservative with integrated cutter. Start
a bitcoin faucet that asks for mailing address and BTC address. The desperate recieve
a kit that includes bag with cutter device you devised and demands 1 right pinky finger.
mircea_popescu:
a tooth implant done well by
a specialist is about $500 or so.
mike_c: that was
a hefty price for
a tooth given
a dental implant is only about $3k
BingoBoingo:
A lot of noobs think running ad covered BTC faucets might make them money on the advertising, but the only honest way to prevent dupes if you run
a faucet is to require submission of
a rare body part.
BingoBoingo: And with the reasonalable caveats drunk me insisted on like
a three week delay to acquire post care antibiotics.
BingoBoingo: I wonder how much the MPOE_PR Anthology would cost for
a bound edition
BingoBoingo: I the past week though Coin desk quoted some CEOness and used their running labrat as
a sign of credibility though
mircea_popescu: such
a broken fucking world when the first 5k images on
a google search for "nike" yield pictures of some shitty plastic shoe-things.
mircea_popescu: without those people simply giving up on economic activity. or, what's worse, turning into
a civil war army.
mircea_popescu: TATdoesReno no but they seriously have
a problem, it's been bubbling up more and more everywhere past coupla weeks
TATdoesReno: I should note the author has been
a gloom and doom predictor before
Apocalyptic: rofl there is
a "usagi" in doge-dice's chat
truffles: "Doves released at the Vatican as
a gesture of peace immediately fall prey to
a vicious seagull and crow" haha
truffles: 'I gave my husband
a kidney to save his life. Then he dumped me. Now I want it BACK' hmmm
mircea_popescu: tbh, i always pictured you with
a silly goatee and
a prince albert truffles
mircea_popescu: According to Claude de Rouvroy, duc de Saint-Simon, clysters were so popular at the court of King Louis XIV of France that the duchess of Burgundy had her servant give her
a clyster in front of the King (her modesty being preserved by an adequate posture) before going to the comedy. However, he also mentions the astonishment of the King and Mme de Maintenon that she should take it before them.
mircea_popescu: truffles what if it were
a straight woman getting things up the butt ? would you still worry ?
truffles: id wonder about
a straight man getting things up the butt
