a too big to fail thing
BingoBoingo: jurov: My first car was
a flood recovery, ran great. Second car
a used rental, runs disappointing but was never in
a flood
BingoBoingo: jurov: That is why you ring
a stethescope when you go car shopping.
BingoBoingo: Things I would do if I had
a time machine: Buy the Imperial, Mine bitcoins in '09, hire
a stable of girls to drive the Imperial around while I ride godfather in the back seat.
nubbins`: ^ you seriously couldn't have asked for
a better quip
nubbins`: “It’s
a terrible store of value. It could be replicated over and over,”
mircea_popescu: nubbins` it's instructive tho. according to dimon, the only marketable value of jpm is that it's
a hand puppet of the usg.
dub: only another 250-300 eur to make it
a 1000 eur car but couldnt be fucked
nubbins`: “It doesn’t have the standing of
a government.”

a new master cylinder
BingoBoingo: pizzaman1337: "The" is even more essential to Ukraine than Ohio State (Ohio being
a bubbling shitpit)
dub: i sold
a car for ~300 eur worth last month
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well in the example of the Caprices it is for cars which will likely meet their end the first time in competition (body on frame construction is essential in
a demolition derby)
Ademan: and it might kill you in
a fender bender
mircea_popescu:
a ? i was under the impression there's no bottom in the us.
Ademan: you can do that here, but it'd probably only run for
a month heh, and you'd have to know the person
BingoBoingo:
A shit Caprice used to sell to the scrapper for $50 or them for $500. Now the same shit Caprice can't sell to the scapper because it goes to them for $2500
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well they have to conform to the racing season so they produce on
a stricter schedule than say Ford. Then again cottage industry and the inefficiencies that come with such
a thing
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I know
a couple people running foundries for dirt track stock cars who work on that model. They aren't doing bad, but they do much better than they were when they were bagging groceries and corpses (apparetly people into dirt track racing find getting an EMT cert attractive until they do the EMT thing for real)
Ademan: BingoBoingo: Cars aren't
a create comparison though, cars are all made by
a small number of enormous players.
mircea_popescu: of course cars for the new model year arrive reliably. you're paying
a lot more than what they're worth.
Ademan: BingoBoingo: Well if invetors thought
a 3 month window was BS, why the price increase in the first place? Pure speculation?
BingoBoingo: I mean Cex.io has
a website, it's .io just like inputs, what could go wrong?
BingoBoingo: Your average 'Murican back country gas station has their inventory timed to
a roughly 15 minute degree of precision as to when it gets replenished.
Ademan: BingoBoingo: thought they were supposed to in Q1? Unless there was
a delay.
BingoBoingo: Ademan: Do they have
a new farm with new chips?
pankkake: twist: guccifer is beiber and being
a singer was his day cover
gribble: Error: "tickr" is not
a valid command.
gribble: Error: "tickr" is not
a valid command.
benkay: didn't have to buy ipo to make out like
a bandit
mircea_popescu: right-o. too big to fail, too big to be replaced, the continued relevancy of jpm is
a legal requirement of the world.
Namworld: Is that article something like: "I got
a big mouth and I can make it move. Watch!"
BingoBoingo: Apocalyptic: truffles: See what I'm saying about G/30 being the minimum time control for
a good game of chess.
mircea_popescu: Ademan "for the people" governments at work. expect it soon in
a theatre near you.
mircea_popescu: most of those girls could have had
a cool k. which they never saw together.
Ademan: damn, that's
a hell of
a tariff
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla they put in
a new rule that you must pay 50% fine to buy stuff over the internets.
kakobrekla: >Argentine Peso lost 14% in
a couple of hours.
benkay: well you're looking at
a bitpay widget
Ademan: mircea_popescu: yeah, I could have sworn it wasn't generating
a new address, but I must have been on something
Ademan: I must have been high or something before, it *is* generating
a new address every time... I coulda sworn it wasn't
mircea_popescu: well yes. every time you enter an ammt you get
a new address.
Ademan: mircea_popescu:
http://www.openbsdfoundation.org/donations.html near the bottom there's
a box to enter
a BTC amount, and
a button that says "Donate Now". When you enter an amount and hit donate, it takes you to
a BitPay page with an address and QR code on it. I got it from there
benkay: anyways, let me know if reddit can scare up
a research budget ;)
Ademan: I assume either BitPay generates new addresses periodically (it obviously doesn't do it every transaction otherwise I would have found no transactions) or they generated
a special one for the transaction
BingoBoingo: Ademan: txids are for transaction in which there is
a dispute as to whether there was payment or not. If neither side disputes that payment was made publishing
a txid merely strips both sides of privacy.
BingoBoingo: Also I won't be able to play for
a few hours. I'll be getting dinner soon and then getting drunk enough to whoop your ass truffles.
BingoBoingo: truffles: Maybe your idea of
a great game of chess is slamming the pieces into each other as fast as possible, but anything less than
a half hour per person removes the chance for the occasional good move in the middle game.
BingoBoingo: truffles Namworld and myself have each won and lost
a game mircea_popescu
BingoBoingo: Right now it is
a three way tie with everyone 1-1.
truffles: he's afraid of makign
a move ldo
BingoBoingo: Speed kills
a lot of the beauty in the game
BingoBoingo: truffles: You'd be surprised what can buy
a buttcoin nowadays
truffles: .005 btc is
a motivator these days?
BingoBoingo: truffles: I will offer you 0.005 BTC if you pick up
a copy of the Critik der reinen Vernunft and produce two single spaced print pages worth of text answering "Do the expressions “synthesis of apprehension in intuition,” “synthesis of reproduction in imagination,” and “synthesis of recognition in
a concept” name three different syntheses or are these names for one synthesis?"
BingoBoingo: Srs competition is supposed to be intense. The loser is supposed to be humiliated.
A large part of why baseball is the better sport than handegg is that actual premeditated violence on the field is sanction to enforce proper levels of humiliation, as opposed to all of the violence in handegg which happens to just merely be incidental to gameplay and futher humiliation is discouraged because "Distraction from the game"
carpet: Jenkins, 29, told reporters that after
a long and tiring day at her office, all she wanted to do was return home, sit down on her couch, turn on an episode of the TLC reality show Say Yes To The Dress, and treat herself to
a brief half hour in which she could look past all the various and near constant ways popular culture undermines the progress of women.
carpet: PORTLAND, OR—Saying that she just wanted
a little time to relax and “not even think about” confining gender stereotypes, local health care industry consultant Natalie Jenkins reportedly took
a 30-minute break from being
a feminist last night to kick back and enjoy
a television program.
truffles: lemon on door handles seemed to work
a while
carpet: so just
a circle whilst I am at work, the cat will stay inside
carpet: I can draw
a line using salt or other condiment around my cat
dub: its
a cat it does whatever the fuck it likes
carpet: truffles you can affix
a lead
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, some things are better with
a bit of mystery.
dub: like
a chinese speed skater
BingoBoingo: Handling coyotes is easy. You growl and chase them away from whatever dumpster they were raiding and then piss on the dumpster to remind them it is
a human dumpster. Then as you walk away flip the coyotes double middle fingers.
BingoBoingo: Eh, in this neighborhood leaving
a beloved pet outside overnight is
a poor idea. Too many coyotes and foxes.
carpet: oh thought it was oculus rift for
a second
BingoBoingo: Why actually "get" cat. Just leave tins of food outside and eventually you'll have
a feral or 12 hanging around taking care of mice outside of the home, which is the best place for mice to die.
mircea_popescu: so i log into my rift girly for the first time in
a few days
nubbins`: she's shrieking "FAGGOT!" in
a thin, high-pitched voice
nubbins`: hm, tourette's hooker neighbour has
a new tic today
nubbins`: we leave the back door open on hot days, once
a strange cat came in and started eating pinki's food :(

a cat sitter over xmas
nubbins`: deal was the kid checks on the house once
a day, makes sure no leaks/mice/breakins/etc
nubbins`: so i'm looking after
a relative's house while he's out of the country
KRS1: lippoper i also told you i bought
a bunch of other alt coins and got out of them completely jackass
benkay: pankkake: we'd need
a rota for that
lippoper: That's why Firestone decided that saving 50cents
a tire was
a great deal. When they started blowing up, well that's ok, they had funds set aside for that and it was less than their net profit.
lippoper: I still have
a moral compass, but by definition,
a successful investment is measured by net profit only.
Apocalyptic: <lippoper>
a great investment is anything that I get to walk away with more money than I walked in with // so if you pull
a scam it's great investement amirite
benkay: oh its
a bitcoin age competition
lippoper:
a great investment is anything that I get to walk away with more money than I walked in with
nubbins`: just because you can make money on
a scam doesn't make it
a great investment
KRS1: No, I'm saying I'm wrong all along about doge coin, it really is
a great investment. Hold on to it and watch it grow.,
carpet: but when you make money on it, it is
a great investment
carpet: KRS1: this is
a problem, because you say sarcastically it's
a great investment
KRS1: ya you are right, invest what you can in doge coin its
a great investment!
