mircea_popescu: thestringpuller: this is an easy way to create a fraudulent scenario. <<< i can actually confirm this. clueless intern paid .2 btc coinbase invoice, had to be slapped across head. the bitcents are and have been in limbo since friday.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller: if you can recommend a shop and they give you a cutback on the order "finders fee" or something i would consider <<< what you're contemplating is actually fraud, and a hanging offense you know.

mircea_popescu: nubbins` it's not all it's cracked up to be. i spent a while with old farts in costa rica, they bored me stiff.
mircea_popescu: like, it's bitter, add sugar, less bitter, less bitter, wow sour, not bitter, a little sweet, sweeter etc

mircea_popescu: aha so this 46-47 business isn't actually all that extraordinary ?
mircea_popescu: <mircea_popescu> kdomanski i was retired before bitcoin

mircea_popescu: in general, what distinguishes people from animals is the ability of people to trace history.

mircea_popescu: the number can be adjusted as needed, i wouldn't worry.
mircea_popescu: my favourite example of this business is a gypsy guy by the name viorel lis. at one time the mayor of bucharest, a decade later he was living in the street, but still appearing now and again on tabloid television sets as "an expert" and "ex mayor" for the 2-300 euro fee that brought him
