Diablo-D3: thestringpuller: yeah, I only paid back twice what people paid in, Im
a horrible person
bgupta: ahh.. if that's true.. then he might have been losing $$... you know he could have saved
a lot of money on lawyers if he asked me what to do.
bgupta: well looking at their trading volume and theoretical commissions leads me to believe that if they didn't have
a huge staff (which it appears they didn't) and they weren't paying for the overhead of AML/KNY, then they had to be profitable while operational.
Namworld: Well
a few users report having their withdrawal processed.
bgupta: thestringpuller: Is there
a difference?
nubbins`: anyway, guess i'd better pipe this thing to
a drain, hey?
nubbins`: FWIW, i was paying attention to washing out
a screen when i noticed my feet getting wet
nubbins`: i just forgot to empty it before cleaning
a screen, and overflowed it all over the fucking floor
nubbins`: okay, so we have
a rudimentary washout booth set up in the studio, with
a bucket underneath to catch wastewater
nubbins`: i was worried for
a bit, because i ruptured the other drum as
a child and it's never been the same since
dub: only doing it once suggests
a lack of training
nubbins`: pankkake: i met
a voluntary self-amputee once
pankkake: I looked into voluntary amputees
a while ago, and couldn't really find out the part of real vs fantasy
nubbins`: fun fact, negative woman having unprotected sex with positive man has
a 1/500 chance of getting infected with each encounter
mircea_popescu: "it's
a form of self harm" umm... no, it's
a form of obamacare darwinism.
nubbins`: pankkake: like most things, probably
a mixture of both
pankkake: Bugchasing is
a slang term for the practice of pursuing sexual intercourse with HIV-infected individuals in order to contract HIV. Individuals engaged in this activity are referred to as bugchasers.
nubbins`: "Now here’s something I gotta say that I get
a lot of comment on and this is that I have had guys tell me that they want to impregnate to have their baby, well to let you guys know that I am down for that kind of thing only if my hubby is okay with it because that’s what we did with our second child, so my kids are mines and none our his."

a trillionaire"
mircea_popescu: for instance the ponzi issue was resolved out of
a few million dollah.
kleeck: Yeah. with all this new BTC inflowing, gambling might be
a cashcow.
kleeck: DEAR MILLIONAIRES HE IS WHAT NOT TO DO, SINCERELY
A 14 YEAR OLD.
pankkake: there is definitely
a noob influx on the forums
benkay: is that
a hundred dollar premium over at gox?

mircea_popescu: at any rate it scales with the macroeconomical conditions and market needs like
a fed note rather than with the underlying like
a stock would.
bitesak: right... I thought it was
a bit high indeed but who knows
mircea_popescu: benkay dood seriously, every time you make
a bet, the page with the qr code tells you "Your bet will appear in the confirmed bets list shortly after 1st confirmation."
benkay: perhaps not
a "frequently" asked question
kakobrekla: go and request
a deposit address for
a bet and read around the address you are give in the last step
kakobrekla: ha i got away with
a rescan. happiness restored.
mircea_popescu: and perhaps the faq would benefit from
a clarifying statement about when transactions are recognized as having bet. << afaik one confirm is good enough to put you on the rooster.
mircea_popescu: Nov 08 13:12:53 <mircea_popescu>or how scandalously excessive
a max of 320 was back in april ?
mike_c: like, plug me into
a computer and get an actually good stream of random numbers.
mircea_popescu: so cardano rng board was successfully populated, there's like oscilloscope illuminated randomness and general entropy pouring out of it. i'll be making
a post with pics and whatnot once the lot of you stop hawking over the exchange.
mike_c: today was
a good day to grab
a bag of popcorn and watch the ticker.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu:

a bitcoin from Earth to Moon (0.00257 AU).
dub: afaik (and its been
a while since i cared) the only way to catch route jacking shenanigens is signup to
a service like bgpmon
dub: not decrementing TTL is
a standard technique inside
a network and is used to hide bgp jacking
dub: hop 5/6
a bit funny but not impossible
mircea_popescu: bgupta afaik the allaire guy sold to general catalyst in 2004, and is running brightcove since
a decade ago, to no particular results.
bgupta: prolly had
a decent stake since he had his coldfusion money.. I'd guess 300 mill?
gribble: This order would exceed the size of the order book. You would buy 13590.822 bitcoins, for

bgupta: so anyone catch the hearings? Jeremy Allaire came off as
a total tool, was basically like "yeah it's important that we hold innovation in financial services to
a higher standard, so it's good thing that entrepreneurs have to go register with all 50 states to get licensed as MSBs to operate in the US. My company Circle (Jerk) is going through it. It's really good that it's very expensive, since it limits it to
dub: with less risk to it than say
a bank
dub: the property boom was simply that they now had
a place to put money
mircea_popescu: shit i've been yakking about since i dunno,

a large number of butts before people get used to how things work irl.

freeroute: basically the same concerns there were
a month ago
freeroute: feel free to poke more holes, I'd rather like an opinion from people who have
a different view than mine.
freeroute: also, does it really matter if
a company has fabs? Why would
a fabless company receive so much funding from
a renowned HDD company then?
BingoBoingo: freeroute: I see
a lot of hype, but eASIC doesn't even have fabs. ActiveMining also doesn't have anything hashing after how long?
KableKiB: thanks, i have
a lot of fun there
KableKiB: oh i thought you were
a bitbet mod
kakobrekla: btw -assets i tell you, today is
a record day in many aspects.
freeroute: dub: I did. I'm following him on BTCtalk. He isn't much of
a communicator, but if that deal with eASIC goes through, it could mean
a lot in terms of shares AFAIK.
snackman: dub mike_c how about
a little empathy?
dub: and those asshats just got
a nice bonus
dub: clearly you understand this better than anyone, I guess you flushed your money to prove
a point
dub: is there
a $900 one cause thats gonna get hit to
snackman: bitbets, if it would like to be
a great service, should make itself easy to understand and operate, and not have stupid rules like this one
mike_c: snackman: here it is without snark. say your bet lost. all you would have to do is send
a different transaction with
a fee that would get confirmed first and you didn't lose anything.
snackman: dub That's an unnecessarily moralistic approach, and furthermore
a hallmark of self-affected geeks' fear/loathing of the mainstream, which I think is misplaced in this instance
