Bowjob: i got
a boner off of it. 4 avalons
benkay_: some jr editor wanted to pay an author 100 bucks for
a rewrite of
a rather lengthy piece
ThickAsThieves: it reads like an essay that was turned in late by
a 10th grader
ThickAsThieves: its actually
a pretty awesome test for where the line is on feminism and gender equality
smickles: wait, so
a biological male is fighting women for money?
Namworld: Yeah, we have
a managed option
Namworld:
A ban on DDoS is not about CPU. It's bandwidth saturating.
smickles: now we have
a half dozen glbse clones
ThickAsThieves: but if they cant make
a profit with the revenue they have so far
rikur: I don't think that
a hybrid model between BTC and fiat works.
rikur: tiberiusiv: I have absolutely no diea, since they will actually register you as
a real shareholder of the canadian company (if you want).
ThickAsThieves: but i do like how thy took more time than some to prepare their documents and
a vid
rikur: jurov: hmm. Maybe the video was
a bit misleading.. but it's weird and flawed.
rikur: jurov: I just can't see
a reason to anchor the value in CAD. Might be easier in regulatory terms, but I don't think I want to invest in anything based on fiat. :)
ThickAsThieves: thats
a good point, among
a pile of other reasons the asset is questionable
gribble: Error: "thicker" is not
a valid command.
ThickAsThieves: is there any precedent for holding an exchange culpable for
a delay in transaction or deposit action that results in
a loss of opporunity to buy at
a lower price?
tiberiusiv: especially with people now accepting BTC for
a house
Namworld: I hope we get
a windows exe soon
jborkl: smickles in the mpexgui,
a MTGOX last really small at the top would be cool
tiberiusiv: mississipi has
a gdp per capita of germany or some shit
tiberiusiv: jurov: id trust those GDP per capita numbers with
a grain of salt
mjr_: though its possible that they just found better investments, higher yield etc...its
a pretty thin market really
mjr_: is there
a good link to see an estimate for divs for sdice?
mjr_: it was
a great birthday present
mjr_: so it is
a partially hedged position
jborkl: you could make
a smickle me elmo that pissed himself
mjr_: it just depends...i really love
a revenue stream in bitcoins
Namworld: idk why S.DICE is so low. Seems like it's doing pretty well. Month is just
a bit lower...
smickles: hah, guess what the second link is on
a google for smickles
jcpham: i hope it is
a family name
mjr_: but if i were to sign
a statement
mod6: yeah, i'd say stick with mjr_ or whatever. cause i thought Josh_Rossi was
a newb
gribble: Error: I am not seeing this user on IRC. If you want information about
a registered gpg user, try the 'gpg info' command instead.
Josh_Rossi: they say you are twice as likely to be hit by
a car in
a crosswalk vs jaywalking
deadweasel: Josh_Rossi: I am
a drama queen, it's something I've been working on for
a few years. I was raised by women.
deadweasel: it's power struggle that has yet to be settled and MPEX could be
a casualty.
gribble: Error: "bc,prc" is not
a valid command.
ThickAsThieves: you cant be
a gangster and
a preacher at the same time
smickles: as if i know how good
a pw he has
smickles: mircea_popescu: this also happened that day that he had trouble authing with gribble, so, given that he wasn't willing to sign anything, i had
a small bit of doubt that i was even talking with the real evoorhees
smickles: i mean, all i was asking for was
a 'paper copy' of what he was saying
Namworld: Just put
a withdrawal request in
mircea_popescu: smickles unless you lay down
A LOT of money it seems maybe exaggerated.
smickles: at the least, i saw it as
a bad risk to lay down money on production and then get
a c&d
MJR_: seriously, though...I trust
a ssd more than Moody's
smickles: mircea_popescu: well, he implied that he either wasn't the sole owner of sdice (outside of S.DICE) or that he would soon become only
a part owner and that his word would not transfer to these other owners
smickles: so i don't want to do something that puts me in such
a vulnerable position
smickles: mircea_popescu: i'm weary about entering into
a business with
a guy who won't put anything in writing ever
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves there's never been
a projection on s.mpoe divs
smickles: mod6: turns out the right move woul've been to maxout my credit cards with cash advances and buy btc
a few months ago
mod6: yeah, i've had 5 cups of coffee, btc is > $70 and im /still/ workin like
a slave
MJR_: that scene was basically
a rip off of Alex Baldwin in glengarry glen Ross
MJR_: lol there were
a bunch of bad ones...
mod6: oh yeah. thats
a good one too.
MJR_: boiler room is
a classic
MJR_: The Notorious BIG said it best: "Either you're slingin' crack-rock, or you've got
a wicked jump-shot." Nobody wants to work for it anymore. There's no honor in taking that after school job at Mickey Dee's, honor's in the dollar, kid. So I went the white boy way of slinging crack-rock: I became
a stock broker.
mircea_popescu: topace i would say this is kludge. keep
a single book rather than fragment it.
unbalanced: He's just giving dimwits like me
a fighting chance.
unbalanced: kakobrekla, is that
a private algo or something others could play with?
unbalanced: They are trying to do this in
a way that won't get them shut down. I hope they do well and grow the market.
mircea_popescu: if they use the ipo funding to actually get registered with the whatever proper authorities / get
a banking partner this may work out well for everyone.
mircea_popescu: raising 5k btc for 10% so
a 50k btc float predicated on 37k monthly trade of which they charge what, 1% ? 0.5% ?
MJR_: strangely, I think we are going to see
a bunch of new money coming in
unbalanced: Won't
a big sdice win like that just encourage more desperate rubes to flush their bitcoins away?
MJR_: would be
a better measure of liquidity
mod6: yeah, its been awol for
a hot minute
smickles: "naw, that wasn't real money, that was
a game. Like warhammere 40k"
smickles: the kids involved now will be too embarassed in
a few years
smickles: best argument for why bitcoin is
a game
MJR_: that is ugly from purely
a grammar and style sense
smickles: MJR_: "Cognitive Mining is
a well established and trusted entity which was previously traded on GLBSE, but only because of the closure is moving here. Cognitive will significantly increase BTC-TC revenue via trade fees, and increase site exposure and trust because
a trusted entity is trusting you!"
smickles: heh, that's
a good idea which the casino's made up to get your money back in their hands
smickles: so hopefully span and cyprus get
a full scale bitcoin economy going. that would be lovely
smickles: the c490n is
a 'fat finger' play
smickles: MJR_:
a c490n would break even at
a price of 4900usd/btc if sold at ~ 1
splnkr: all that's much more complicated, i just think anyone saying there's
a hard ceiling for USD/B TC in the double or even triple digits is BSing
MJR_: you have
a liability
