midnightmagic: kakobrekla: Plain logs I have no problem with.
midnightmagic: kakobrekla: I have a problem with the quoting mircea does. It's illegal.
midnightmagic: kakobrekla: I am aware that this channel was made a publically-logged channel (but not in the topic) as a top-down directive because you are in the #bitcoin-* namespace.
midnightmagic: Okay go ahead. Also, you don't have my permission to quote anything I've said today.
mircea_popescu: yeah, if we can get to it, i'd like to explain this pre order money thing, cause it's what's important here.
mircea_popescu: anyway, this entire pre miningargument is a waste of time. i said "a little", you so far are making a case it's not a lot, maybe it;'s not a lot.
midnightmagic: I posit an alternate explanation: they purchased or had available the case metal prior to assembly, sitting in a supply bay somewhere.
mircea_popescu: no piece of hardware i ever bought as new came with dust in it.
mircea_popescu: pigeons yes, but i consider that a sidepoint of little importance
mircea_popescu: i'm seriously the only one of us three seeing an issue here ?
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: I'm misrepresenting that you often draw conclusions from insufficient evidence?
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: If that is, indeed, what he's done, that sucks. I don't see any evidence for them mining their own hardware (difficulty spiked only on delivery as per users self-reporting,) but then you tend to jump to conclusions a lot (as per your assertion that gmaxwell wanted to steal rich peoples' money, because you didn't grok multisig, for example,) so why let the lack of facts get in the way this time?
pigeons: midnightmagic: i mean when avalon said that batch 1 had shipped please pay for batch 2 and 2 weeks later they said ok now we're shipping batch 1 i guess they werent caught at customs like we said
mircea_popescu: i guess he's never said cunt so he must be very ethical (or just not sufficiently familiar with english)
mircea_popescu: granted, i don't go by the very superficial approach most people seem to use.
pigeons: wait what did he do unethical? The thing I'm aware of is lying about having shipped when they hadn't
midnightmagic: I don't really care that he's upped the price. With a machine that pays for itself in less than 5 days (with luck) why would he not?
midnightmagic: He reversed designs of BFL and gave the information to the public. This is the evidence on which I based my opinion that he was the most ethical hardware manufacturer.
mircea_popescu: you're gonna end up running for political office i suspect.
mircea_popescu: or grep i guess
midnightmagic: Oh did you ask me questions that I never answered?
midnightmagic: Did I now.
jcpham: i can't listen anything that person says
jcpham: if usagi from the forum is the person from the youtube video i was watching

mircea_popescu: Namworld i kinda don't recall.
Namworld: I'm not really talking about volume, just quality of talk in this channel.
Namworld: Well, fair enough mircea. I know MPEx has been doing well and is the major volume. But at least there was more regular chatting about BTC businesses and less unrelated talk.
