mircea_popescu: i imagine we see here at work the alienation of postmodern society
maximian: know, I just remember him from a couple of days ago… went ballistic about the s.dice price being 0.0044, then spoke with evoorhees on Skype, then calmed down
jurov: i do add comments about coinbr where necessary, just i often came late, outside reddit attention span
mircea_popescu: jurov : "They aren't publicized well. So I thought the only way to buy shares was through going on mpex. Pretty logical conclusion to draw, really. This is all a wild wild west."
maximian: I'm like the anti-MPOE-PR
maximian: I don't even know why I"m trying… pearls to swine
truffles: "I find it comfortable that even millionaires like him are apparently not happy or at peace with the world and life." mo money mo probs
mircea_popescu: at least from what i've seen
ThickAsThieves: I don't think the fees are high at all
maximian: yep, I'm trying the gentle touch
mircea_popescu: I understand the concept between differentiating the broker and exchange. This is an obvious concept. My problem was that I couldn't find a broker for a while. I wasn't aware of their existence until very recently. "
mircea_popescu: "I'm just, I don't know how I feel about all of this shit.
ThickAsThieves: i can think of some, sure
ThickAsThieves: so i checked myself like 5 times
ThickAsThieves: the first time i had to send that exact amount, i was scared
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, 104 comments... i guess i win the bet. pity nobody made it
ThickAsThieves: i cant see how they could have any real authority or business in other people's bitcoin matters
mircea_popescu: i guess it unwittingly worked out like that or something.
mircea_popescu: truffles o, that was some drama you missed out on i guess, with the rota and whatnot.
ThickAsThieves: I'm a little out of the loop, but so far it seems like the only accusation on mp is that he isn't kind to people he doesn't like, is that right?
mircea_popescu: "I was thinking a real bet could be on the valuation of MPEX. I believe it's worth a lot less than $10 million. I'd have to investigate further, but given that MPEX has under 200 users, and is likely illegal, notwithstanding the fees and the horrendous owner, that it would be worth substantially less than $10 million."
mircea_popescu: i find the consumer mindset very amusing tho
mircea_popescu: YOU ARE THE OPPOSITE OF THAT. I HATE YOU. GO DIE FUCKER."

pigeons: i thought they mutilated cattle
mircea_popescu: "Edit: NO ONE SHOULD TRUST MPEX WITH 50000. Just using as an example. I wouldn't trust MPEX with 5 cents personally."
mircea_popescu: i don't care much either way.
awkorama_: mircea_popescu: I take it you don't like reddit much.
