mircea_popescu: fill your cunt with newborn rats, take panties off in class
mircea_popescu: i suppose it's a pretty decent way to drive people up the wall, as an angry teenager.
BingoBoingo: But that's old news and rabbits are adorable. Chihuaua is basically rat.
asciilifeform: i bet mircea_popescu knows the incident...
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-24#1471513 << reminds me of far more interesting case in 17th c where some chick had dead rabbits stuffed in uterus and 'birthed' them ☝︎
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform rather well researched too, the half life of average "bitcoin community"-tard is just about 15 months.

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-24#1471496 << the 'mra' derps, who tried to copy feminism, even created a name - 'glass cellar' - for 'why must garbage men and thieves be male!111' ☝︎
mircea_popescu: and we'll be bitching about how nominal equality, ie, 3 mn each, hides the fact that there's 2% more women so there should really be more, exactly in the manner they derp today about how women don't work as long, so they make less.
mircea_popescu: criminalize being fat, decriminalize rape. then criminalize talking back, decriminalize domestic beatings. and keep going until female prison population === male prison population
mircea_popescu: and incidentally, any derp who is preoccupied with "changing society" because "women statistically don't make as much money as men" while not being preoccupied with "changing the definition of crime" because "the current definitions put more men in prison than women" is an utter hypocrite. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: from now on, this is the bar. facebook is held to do the exact same if i say so. because why the fuck not.
mircea_popescu: tsk tsk.
mircea_popescu: so basically, if feminists tell it to get fucked, facebook does change its mind.

BingoBoingo: end using an image of a relevant activity, such as running or riding a bike." In a statement on Monday, Facebook apologized for its original stance and said it had determined that the photo does comply with its guidelines."
BingoBoingo: pany's "ad guidelines". After the group appealed against the rejection, Facebook's ad team initially defended the decision, writing that the photo failed to comply with the social networking site's "health and fitness policy". "Ads may not depict a state of health or body weight as being perfect or extremely undesirable," Facebook wrote. "Ads like these are not allowed since they make viewers feel bad about themselves. Instead, we recomm
BingoBoingo: In other lulz: "Facebook has apologized for banning a photo of a plus-sized model and telling the feminist group that posted the image that it depicts "body parts in an undesirable manner". Cherchez la Femme, an Australian group that hosts popular culture talkshows with "an unapologetically feminist angle", said Facebook rejected an advert featuring Tess Holliday, a plus-sized model wearing a bikini, telling the group it violated the com

BingoBoingo: * asciilifeform rockets off on small tour of BingoBoingolandia tonight << Nah, Chicagoland is basically anti-Bingolandia
solrodar: is that not what you just said?
mircea_popescu: your reading's a thing of wonder.
solrodar: I look forward to hearing how you will distribute the proceeds to them
solrodar: mircea_popescu: glad to hear that you confiscated kako's mpex account on behalf of the shareholders and not just yourself
mircea_popescu: so the story is not at all about this ; it's all about how it could be this, and then becauser it could be, it's ok that it isn't, and so he's "law abiding"
asciilifeform mostly ignorant of the story, but isn't that sorta what his life is about ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: who exactly puts superman anywhere he dun want to be ?
mircea_popescu: (and for the record : superman irl would last for about a week, before all the bills for torn down walls and destroyed cars would put him away permanently. seems important to have this in the fucking record omfg.)
mircea_popescu: every dork thinks himself the main character in his own game, and somehow to be saved by divine providence just as long as he sticks to "his principles".
mircea_popescu: somehow the very distant ballas criticism of the "single issue independent" doesn't strike home, unless we sit on the ruined remnants of the house.
mircea_popescu: anyway. there's a lot of wisdom fruits in all this for the general reader.
mircea_popescu: bullshit. next time someone "saves" you from having to pay a 20 btc heating bill by burning down your house, call it kakologic.
asciilifeform: is there method to pick b/w these 2 other than 'which fella i like moar'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu's appears to be ' kako killed bbet by not kowtowing '
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: kako's pov was ' mircea_popescu killed the value by sending 0fee '
mircea_popescu: this claim is not at any point considered or lent any credence by discussion of the shareholder claim item above. it's dead weight, and it won't be rescued by trying to tack it on to actual substantial issues.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-24 16:40 jurov: and the proceeds were thus impounded
a111: Logged on 2016-05-24 15:52 mp_at_olivos: the theory whereby "dead to me" is supposed to read "holds a substantial fraction of my assets" and "the difference between these two statements only appeared to me sometime late may, which is coincidentally months after the alleged causative event and also within minutes of channel discussion of the fabulous failure of the miner cartel love tap and subsequent attempts to cover it up" may be either partially false or entirely
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-24#1471380 << the notion that kakobrekla had anything to be impounded is entirely based on kakobrekla's pretense, which is both late and contradictory to his own earlier statements. see http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-24#1471274 ☝︎☝︎
mircea_popescu: i've yet to encounter that mirabilis item, the bitbet ex-shareholder that thinks kakobrekla helped him. and that's that.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-24 16:39 jurov: let's please not mix everyhing together. we have on table a new (to me) accusation kakobrekla sold share of bitbet under shady circumstances
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-24#1471379 << no, we don't. we have the situation where kakobrekla destroyed 2-3k btc of shareholder value, and the reasonable, at least to my eyes, civil claim against him by the victims. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: yeah well, education is a square built off a line that reads "beatings"
mircea_popescu: generally, recall, at the fucking time all this got started, the same "community" of imbeciles that had "forum bankers" and whatever the fuck, ALSO had "glbse" and "investments".
a111: Logged on 2016-05-24 16:28 asciilifeform: it never wholly made sense to me why to issue shares for a thing made of one or two people.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-24#1471359 << also supposed to be educative, if nothing else. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: kinda why i'm entertaining the whole nonsense, supposed to be educative.
trinque: as though the forum is to play the role of centralized mob-judge
trinque: there seems to be pervasive confusion as to what interacting as peers *means*
mircea_popescu: he is, of course, idemnified as per contract to "amt actually realised". which is, to date, 670 btc and change, so there is that.
mircea_popescu: davout set the precedent in, dangerous as it may be, we're now with it.
mircea_popescu: forget this entire "what derp meant to do". it's uninteresting. derp's judged on what he did. and if i'm to pay ~20 btc which nobody disputes i actually spent, because that's how the stars alligned, kakobrekla can sure as fuck pay ~2k btc that some think he earned, because that's how the stars lined up.
jurov: so, he had the premeditated plan of selling them and then waiting for a year to pull the plug?
asciilifeform: but this is slightly different from 'i'ma sell it all then pull the plug, haha'
mircea_popescu: so then.
asciilifeform: from bbet ipo, according to him
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform guy's total deposit covered an account creation. whatever he has, he has from selling bitbet, logically.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-24 15:59 mp_at_olivos: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-24#1471281 plain fraud, like anything else. this year sold shares to whatever buyers, next year burned the thing down. hurr.
mircea_popescu: what ceausescu died embracing, and each and every of 'em idiots to date. "they meant well" and left a hole behind.
mircea_popescu: you know, what every derpy socialist ever says, once his idiocy blows up. "i only meant well", as if that somehow provides immunity.
mircea_popescu: and if you diverge from it, no matter how you justify the divergence to yourself, or to a random mob of uninvolved bystanders, you'll be held for it.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-24 16:23 jurov: asciilifeform beware! tmsr considers selling shares of own business as stealing!
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-24#1471349 << funny. but no. selling shares in what you pretend to be a business and then setting that on fire however does open you to liability. because your job as a principal is to act in the best interest of the shareholders. that's the only criteria. the ONLY criteria. ☝︎

asciilifeform: trinque: they come out potentially maxint at a time.
asciilifeform: trinque: they do
trinque: I could alter that
trinque: I think the thing as written only ever barfs last six to avoid spamming the channel
trinque: asciilifeform: got your message; perhaps they come out rapidly enough that more than six get dumped at a time to RSS?
trinque: you people are still going on like old spinsters trying to wrangle this thing legally
jurov: do you have anything to say to this one?
trinque: if you cross someone with whom you're doing business, and the cost to their reputation is not enough to harm them, they fuck you back.
jurov: and the proceeds were thus impounded ☟︎
jurov: let's please not mix everyhing together. we have on table a new (to me) accusation kakobrekla sold share of bitbet under shady circumstances ☟︎
asciilifeform: and can cut as easily in one direction as the other.
asciilifeform: jurov: understand that the blade of conspiratorial conjecture has ~two~ edges.
asciilifeform: jurov: he easily could have sold the 'unsellable' 25%, by ~promising the coin~ in the future.
asciilifeform: in the meat world there were legalisms like 'key man clause' etc. for such cases.
jurov: he had 25% that was not on mpex thus not possible to sell. then he got another 25% which was *supposed to be sold to public*
asciilifeform: but if he sold the bulk of his bbet holding ahead of time, then yes, it was a betrayal
asciilifeform: in ancient times, when you sold yourself into slavery, at least you'd be collected physically
asciilifeform: why would anyone take you seriously after that ?
asciilifeform: and you are the goose.
jurov: to sell half of future golden eggs upfront to investors?
asciilifeform: considering that any selling is a serious signal of ill-confidence in own victory
