TomServo: folks claim he made
a killing on doge, but won't admit it
mircea_popescu: myeah. ok, this is an example of starting up right. joined in may 2013, by july he had
a useful service.
mircea_popescu: there's
a pool charging 3% which actually gets hash ?! wow.
ThickAsThieves: and there is definitely
a correlation to qty of shares held
KRS|Gotyawallet:
A: Withdrawals are coming with MoneyPolo, but not just yet.
KRS|Gotyawallet: well...mt gox isn't designed like that. Between bad trades, fees are supposed to eat up your moneies anyway so getting fiat out isnt
a problem.
KRS|Gotyawallet: Now that we are working with MoneyPolo,
a leading financial company that is in-tune with the future of Bitcoin, anyone with
a verified account will be able to quickly send money to their MtGox account via 128 global currencies.
the20year: One of my biz associates said there's
a few RE investment firms looking to expand and want to talk to me
mircea_popescu: which sounds
a lot like the romanian "scirt," which means "big whoop" which as stephen fry would put it, works.
truffles: what kinda frenchman takes it from
a Romanian !
mircea_popescu: and how is edvige
a "good" anything. it fails to be an obscure female name.
pankkake: where they invent stuff that must have
a good initialism. like EDVIGE (sounds like Edwige the female name) for the police spy file
mircea_popescu: by the way, has the "hate speech" crowd managed to make crack
a hurtful reference in gay contexts yet ?
mircea_popescu: gentlemen, i am glad we've assembled such
a crack team of creative linguists on this venue.
mircea_popescu: the20year copycats have this magical way to
a) fail and b) do all the expensive dangerous research for you.
pankkake: asciilifeform: 32m² here too. though I have
a big ass cellar
nubbins`: mircea_popescu: nod, the "studio" is split between the 3rd floor and the basement. sometimes finding your pencil is
a workout
mircea_popescu: kinda crampy. i have
a 220 sq m ground + 170 2nd floor here.
ozbot:
A nins ?
A nins pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
nubbins`: $80/mo is fucking great to heat
a home
nubbins`: but oil is just expensive. no sweat to drop $450+
a month in the winter
mircea_popescu: you know, amusingly, most us folk i know think romania is
a sort of ohio.
the20year: Yeah, but the water part is the problem. Using
a high flash point oil is much better
nubbins`: it's not
a bad system, because you retain the heat after the furnace stops firing
nubbins`: the20year: basically it's
a standard oil furnace, but instead of heating air and pumping it through vents, it heats
a large water reservoir that is then circulated throughout the house to radiators
mircea_popescu: Real estate development can return several milion dollars in just
a 9 month development phase << i know
a guy that blew up
a fortune trying and failing at that.
nubbins`: nod. this one is actually
a hot water circulating furnace
the20year: highest efficientcy is 80% on
a furnace, most are 60%-70%
the20year: one option that I considered, but it just didn't work out for us was to buy
a home warranty
the20year: I can buy
a new furnace for $550 :D
nubbins`: i just spent $275 on
a new circulating valve for our tenant's furnace
the20year: and
a dozen here in Ohio I don't want to touch with
a 10 foot pole
the20year: Real estate can be very, very localized when talking about problems. I could give you
a dozen markets in Michigan I'd love to be in
the20year: Michigan doesn't have
a monoindustry problem , Detroit has one though
the20year: Problem in Ohio is no one wants to develop rental property since it's
a get rich slow scheme. Real estate development can return several milion dollars in just
a 9 month development phase
the20year: When I have
a valid idea, one that's already profitable, and i'm having so much time
pankkake: webpages that would belong in
a magazine, not
a browser
mike_c: that bubble has already started popping though. the "series
A crunch" is the term for the million crappy startups that are dying.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: all it can come up with these days is
a very thin sliver at the very top and
a very wide base of ycombinator retards.
mircea_popescu: pankkake unless there's
a war, $30k detached housing in ohio CAN NOT be
a bubble.
peterL: OK, who wants to help me buy
a house and I will pay rent in bitcoins?
pankkake: I'm already invested in real estate, and I feel like I'm sitting on
a bubble :D
mircea_popescu: or it could be
a good way to run from btc if you consider it drops.
peterL: If you expect bitcoin to stabilize, then it could be
a good way to invest in real estate.
mircea_popescu: you obviously wouldn't think of buying the thing otherwise than "buying an us future with
a built in interest rate"
mike_c: it is
a btc divestment.
mircea_popescu: on top of that, loose money bubbles the real estate. because they'd rather be the guy paying 1k for
a 90k property
peterL: My previous house sold for about $30000 and is renting for $900
a month
mircea_popescu: think, millionaire in the 3rd world, never used as much as
a real estate agent.
peterL: I have not estimated exactly what
a mortgage would cost for
a while, but it is $1000 rent, house is maybe $90000
mircea_popescu: all i used was
a half hour of notary public time, cost me ~35
Duffer1: wouldn't matter even if we did use such
a system, housing as you pointed out is is obscenely expensive
mircea_popescu: i never used ANYONE. not
a real estate agent, title company or escrow. ever.
peterL: MP, I currently rent
a house for about twice it would take to buy it with
a mortgage, but because of my credit I cannot get
a morgage to buy
a house.
mike_c: please. having to hire
a lawyer, real estate agent, title company, escrow agent, etc, etc. is totally reasonable!
mircea_popescu: i had not previously realised the us is on such
a weak footing, tbh. i mean i had
a general notion, but i never cared enough to examine the real estate situation.
mircea_popescu: Duffer1 exaggerate to hell property values, which make rents
a smaller proportion but also exaggerated to all hell.
mike_c: well, if it is true in the midwest, it is likely related to the fact that nobody can get
a mortgage anymore in the us.
mircea_popescu: pankkake this was spurred by
a guy's data re central ohio. meanwhile i had intel check it out
mircea_popescu: so today i learned that while in romania you pay 350 euros
a month to rent
a property worth 70k, in the us you miostly pay 700 dollars
a month to rent
a property worth 30k
peterL: and how is that
a "speaking of shill"?
pankkake: hmm… speaking of shill… how about
a bot telling of bet updates?
jborkl: :( with
a free amazing video
jborkl: but they have
a instructional video
