nubbins`: burr grinder produces uniform sized grinds for
a more consistent extraction
nubbins`: uh, bodum makes
a good burr grinder
nubbins`: you can get
a decent burr grinder for $200 and up
kakobrekla: i need to get
a better grinding machine then
unbalanced: There was
a guy in Texas selling coffee for BTC
a couple of years ago but never updated his prices... I bet it is $20,000 USD
a pound by now.
unbalanced: Hi all, long time no talk. Who do I thank for the log site? That has made it easier to keep up with this channel on
a tablet.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu do you have
a published list of all the mpbor paid % and loss?
mircea_popescu: "What the devil kind of knight are you, that can't slay
a hedgehog with your naked arse? The devil excretes, and your army eats. You will not, you son of
a bitch, make subjects of Christian sons; we've no fear of your army, by land and by sea we will battle with thee, fuck your mother."
davout: i'll start paying attention when i can get
a kilo for
a btc
davout: nubbins`: would that be such
a terrible thing?
mircea_popescu: speaking of cats and shit, anyone's seen that film with the boy adrift with
a tiger ?
nubbins`: several people have suggested i visit beaumont hamel, but that's way too much of
a fucking downer
davout: no no,
a fat, evil cat
davout: mircea_popescu: you need
a cat
mircea_popescu: In 1896, the Bouillon Chartier was born out of
a very simple concept – provide
a decent meal at
a reasonable price and give customers good service in order to earn their loyalty. 50 million meals, and only four owners later, the recipe is still every bit as much
a success.
nubbins`: my family generally agreed that paris is
a dirty, busy city
nubbins`: light
a joint at $420, it passes $500 before you're finished smoking it
mircea_popescu: jurov` we're so filthy rich
a 20% increase doesn't even register anymore.
nubbins`: Diablo-D3: you got
a contendor?
firstblockchain: One quick question for
a "frame of reference" as I start looking at the virtual companies here and how they work - are any of them based on real-world / physical product "businesses" people are running?
ozbot: THE BEARDS - If Your Dad Doesn't Have
a Beard, You've Got Two Mums (Official Film Clip) - YouTube
nubbins`: suppose you have allergies AND
a beard?
nubbins`: ecuador organic espindola, burundi sogestal kirimiro, and
a little bit of el salvador finca la montanita
nubbins`: i visited
a coffee plantation in colombia in 2010
nubbins`: nothing like
a nice yirgacheffe
firstblockchain: I put them up for sale for bitcoin to show it could help create
a better direct line between source and consumer. I was very happy with the result.
mircea_popescu: if you actually learn from the reactions no. if you keep right on like
a webrat then yes.
nubbins`: i roasted coffee for
a few years
firstblockchain: Is it
a faux-pas if I'm the type of person who doesn't lurk, but just jumps in and tries shit to learn from the results / reactions?
mircea_popescu: yes, the idea is it takes six months to
a year of lurking to catch up to speed.
firstblockchain: I can see I'm going to have to dig in
a bit and wrap my head around it. I live in Indonesia, and the first thing I thought of when I began exploring BTC was how powerful it would be to connect producers with consumers much more easily, by skipping all the middlemen, paperwork and fees involved in transactions. My main focus was how this works with the coffee industry.
mircea_popescu: bitcoin is the deeply hidden nugat of breathtaking complexity wrapped in
a lot of superficial buzz.
firstblockchain: Raised hell when I posted what I did and
a link to my website on Reddit - but got
a lot of useful feedback too - like discovering
a working version of it here LOL
gribble: Error: "terror" is not
a valid command.
pankkake: want to do
a "an havelock listing will be
a scam" too but again, how do I define that…
mircea_popescu: bets should be something more substantive than "mp will post
a threesome on irc"
pankkake: my general idea was that someone "trusted" would become
a scammer yet again
pankkake: why is "Any user will be removed from Bitcointalk DefaultTrust again"
a bad bet?
mircea_popescu: davout
a little recycling of stale shit. great for the environment, ok for the consumer.
davout: either way this smells like
a glorified google authenticator
pankkake: oh and you can't use
a regular yubi with them?
pankkake: so… more expensive than
a yubikey but only works with mtgox
davout: (aw shit the PR about their otp card is actually
a week old, shame on me)
pankkake: "we are going to work in our undersea base for
a month"
pankkake: hmm… I have
a feeling bitbet would self destroy rather than be forced to do something
mircea_popescu: bar any serious history
a la inaba, we're to expect people know what they mean.
pankkake: thought that could mean "we have the funds as
a number printer on weexchange"
mircea_popescu: "We have the IPVO funds, Bitcoin was an innovation driven by the global mess we all found ourselves in, Neo & Bee was given
a chance because of the Bail-in's here in Cyprus. Whenever there is
a problem, there is an opportunity! This will all become more evident when it is possible to release the details in full."
mircea_popescu: the chick that shoved
a wooden implement up her snatch ?
mircea_popescu: well if neo feels like making
a comment at all, that's probably the #1 comment to make by importance.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves so dump
a link or two in the comments section.
ThickAsThieves: "On April 16, 2013, Google announced that production was complete for the initial Glass Explorer Edition units and the corporation would begin shipping.[43] On the same day, Google also released
a web-based setup page for Glass,[44] as well as the MyGlass companion app.[45] Developers were also given first access to the Mirror API for Glass.[46]"
ozbot: Want
a Google Glass? It can now ship to your house complete with personal tutorial | ITProPortal.com
mircea_popescu: no, they just get their fingers in the door when
a bet is to be resolved.
mircea_popescu: ok so something like "Contrary to previous announcements, MtGox will fail to list LTC as
a currency by X date. If at least Y volume of LTC is traded on MtGox by X date, this bet resolves as yes"
mircea_popescu: what is the contention this bet is centered around ? mtgox lacks the tech ability ot add
a currency ?
ThickAsThieves: can the Gox lists litecoin bet be done in
a way so as not get "Bad bet."?
pankkake: even BingoBoingo has
a reddit account
mircea_popescu: weed is
a pain in the butt by comparison to running
a miner tho.
pankkake: because they both suck
a lot of electrity
mircea_popescu: 9. mc^2 is
a sexist equation, because it privileges the speed of light over other speeds that are much more important to us.
truffles: will post
a response by top of hr
truffles: " don’t talk at
a tech conference if there is
a woman nearby." hmmm
pankkake: truffles: I think I did… and also there was
a popular French feminist nonsense article about how how sexist men are in tech
pankkake: I just want to dump wordpress but need
a good solution for comments
pankkake: it's
a good example of too much CSS
pankkake: I think "1. it's
a scam" is
a bit better
Venat: i really think mpex.co is
a scam and I can prove it
