mircea_popescu: i
think i actually might have played
this on
the ipad back when i did
teh "literature survey" for s.mg
danielpbarron: i mostly did cards in person.
there was a windows client called apprentice i used a little
mircea_popescu: does it exist online or is it actually cards in person
thing ?
☟︎ TomServo: same. I should prolly divest
them along with my bitcoins, eh?
mircea_popescu: it
took five passes until "Reverse of
the everybody is MP deal. Everbody is bobciu" coallesced into " Reverse of
the (everybody is MP) deal. Everbody is bobciu"
TomServo: be right back, magic:
the gathering?
BingoBoingo: hanbot: Some
things/people change. Others simply change
the body
they reside in. Reverse of
the everybody is MP deal. Everbody is bobciu
hanbot: ;;later
tell williamdunne feel free
to pm me for ro chat/queries also.
though my principle strength seems
to be accidentally portmanteauing.

hanbot: mircea_popescu meh, i guess eskimociuciu has eternal representation so long as
the current voice distributes so much chum.
nubbins`: i was done until mp decided he'd have another shot at his
trump impersonation
mats: is
this feud going
to be an ongoing
thing in
the logs now
nubbins`: until
then, you're kinda just a dr. forehead but better at bleeding cash
nubbins`: hanbot i just heard about your 58mn ECu loss -- maybe when you're able
to do something other
than run
the mouth and lose money, people might care what you have
to say?
ben_vouspes: i have no idea what point you're
trying
to make.
mircea_popescu: ben_vouspes now
try sha512("(and if you say anything other
than "no it was in my mempool"
to
this list of easy
to explain coincidences, you lose)")
assbot: Logged on 08-03-2016 23:10:34; ben_vouspes: nubbins`: and until bitcoin accounting standards include "these are
the coins i am reporting on my balance sheet"
this best case/worst case ambiguity will remain.
mircea_popescu: ben_vouspes> as predicted. << predicted my foot. you've prolly not even noticed
that
trilema's previous article was "color of money", or
that
the current one continues in
the "trolling
the idiots" vein.
williamdunne: mircea_popescu:
Thanks, I'll start working
through it
williamdunne: I have an account somewhere, it's
time I've been lacking. But if I can pick it up,
that would be very kind,
thank you
diana_coman: williamdunne, for practice, join eulora and I'll offer quests and
training in Ro only, no problem
mircea_popescu: williamdunne not
that
there's any hurry. lemme see, something
that's more accessible, perhaps interesting, not very ro context-y...
mircea_popescu: assbot> Report: Elon Musk,
Tim Cook, and Larry Page meet
to halt
Trump’s ascendancy << somebody's worried about being cutoff from wasting public funds
to maintain
their "businesses" or wut.
☟︎ williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Do you have anything in particular
that you would care
to see
translated, ideally something
that isn't literal poetry? Yeah I've only just started picking RO up, so it would probably be a slow process..
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> wtf would anyone bet when
the dial says '0.99 << it's about even money neh ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: williamdunne> nubbins`:
tbf while using
the company wallet <<
there is no such
thing as "the company wallet".
mircea_popescu: hehehe. so go for it. but note
that
the guy was a native speaker.
trilema, and especially ro
trilema, is incredibly
tense. in fact i do not believe harder source
text exists in
the whole 2k year history of
the place.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron> what is personal life? is
there impersonal life? << funny enough,
this actually came up in
the harem recently. i liked
the conclusion. public are all matters which can be expressed such
that all
the individuals who know of
them can accept
the expression. private is everything else.
mircea_popescu: the point is
to crush, not
to extend,
the relevancy of old world idiocy into
the new.
mircea_popescu: and why it is both wrong and stupid
to entertain fiatista's pretense of re-interpreting bitcoin in fiatista
terms.
mircea_popescu: ben_vouspes> mpex paying out bitbet bettors, megafuckinglol if
true. << one day you'll comprehend what
this "there is no bitcoin
taint"
thing means.
mircea_popescu: williamdunne> Are people working on
translating old
Trilema articles from Romanian? <<
there was a guy, gabrielradio, did some so-so work. it is HARD.
mircea_popescu: the whole incident is certainly a fine example of why b-a and
the world generally can't work as a "mp supported"
thing. gotta be very expensive
to be a lord, or else self-flattery is much
to powerful a force.
mircea_popescu: peterl is kinda
the same,
trying
to hang on
to
the
train, which is moving kinda fast and so on.
mircea_popescu: then
that bizarre
theory got put
to
the
test and it broke like a bridge made out of rickety reeds and now
the unspeakable happened, and
there is
the mirror and oh god
the horror.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile other people did
things, and
there he sat on ass,
thinking
to himself "oh heh, am i fucking special - all
these idiots are sweating bullets and i
think i'm exactly
the same as
them but much smarter because I'm not even doing anything!". aka sprezzatura, ie what happens when you overfeed and underbeat
the children.
mircea_popescu: he sat in
the chan counting his bellybutton lint for years, making inept arguments about pointless shit - he lost all of
them, but hey, as long as mp doesn't come straight out with "you're stupid, go back
to school" one needn't notice
this actually happened, can just as well pretend
that blabla.
mircea_popescu: hanbot nubbins` is just doing his
trademark low hanging fruit
thing, "what's
the lowest effort
thing i could possibly do
to maintain
the pretense i'm doing something".
that's his coping mechanism with life, it "worked pretty well" or whatever, it's what he knows, it's what he does.
there's a whole stack of
these idiots running around like pointless chickens, i dunno
that much need be explained.
ben_vouspes: nubbins`: and until bitcoin accounting standards include "these are
the coins i am reporting on my balance sheet"
this best case/worst case ambiguity will remain.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: hanbot: Crisis does funny
things
to people's brains
assbot: Logged on 08-03-2016 19:16:32; PeterL: and it is what, 10 lines if you don't count nubbins` ?
that does not seem very lengthy
hanbot: so mircea_popescu do you suppose
these people were hacked or something, ie some kinda inept Chinese-PR? even without nubbins` meltdown, you have PeterL,
the ex-mildmannered professional chemist with a family, going
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=08-03-2016#1427105 like a five year old suddenly, what
the fuck is
this?!
☝︎ nubbins`: why don't
they meet
to institute an idiot harvest instead?
BingoBoingo: ;;later
tell fluffypony Did you really sign a document about being more polite?
danielpbarron: no i've specifically seen
the argument made from a winner
that he needed
the funds
to seed his next bet
nubbins`: BingoBoingo +1,
they're not your winnings until
they're in your hands
BingoBoingo: <danielpbarron> i never understood
the whole "omg when are my winnings comming, i neeeed
them!" << General Bitcoin related anxiety from having
them away from One's keys
danielpbarron: i never understood
the whole "omg when are my winnings comming, i neeeed
them!"
williamdunne: danielpbarron: And needs
them sometime between now and.. um
nubbins`: yes, will pull
those first. i
think it's only a couple
nubbins`: also, if you don't send me address for
these shirts, i'm sending
them
to real nsa w/ your name on box 8)
nubbins`: will set
the stage for
the future of
TMSR~ either way
nubbins`: but duly noted -- will prob just watch
these embers and see if
they
take hold
nubbins`: solrodar hate
the game, not
the player
assbot: You rated user nubbins` on 24-Apr-2015, with a rating of 1, and supplied
these additional notes: pogoplug
tester for
therealbitcoin.
danielpbarron: is
this a surprising position
to come from
the guy who believes in God (a man)
assbot: Successfully added a rating of -10 for danielpbarron with note: Devoted
to a man rather
than
to a cause.
nubbins`: danielpbarron is
this a race
to -10 now?
nubbins`: davout my logic stretched
too far!
assbot: Successfully updated
the rating for nubbins` from -1
to -3 with note: Suffers from
the misguided notion
that bitcoin companies are subject
to
the same rules as fiat
assbot: You rated user nubbins` on 30-Jun-2014, with a rating of -1, and supplied
these additional notes: for
the purpose of
turning
the spam nozzle
two clicks
towards
the off position, and in
the interest of discovering whether a lord can be silenced or not.
trinque: if one had invested significantly in
the infrastructure for an exchange, it stands
to reason
that he'd not use
this
to hold his own funds, and instead would keep it on a usb stick plugged into his fucking pogo
davout: nubbins`: i
think you made some valid points, but
this is not one of
them
williamdunne: nubbins`:
tbf while using
the company wallet might be a bad habit, I don't
think its an issue in itself, although reading
through
the logs it seems everything has gone
to shit
nubbins`: mp could have sent
the funds
to solrodar from mp's mpex account
davout: my money is on a paymium-controlled addy, your examination of my withdrawal on
the blockchain would conclude
to fraud?
davout: nubbins`: i fail
to see how (b) implies (c), I can perfectly have an account on my own exchange, can't I?
nubbins`: i have no interest in reasoning with
those who abandon reason
nubbins`: if you hesitate
to attempt reasoning with
these facts, fuck you
nubbins`: i just gave you (a) mp saying "thanks, here's your money, here's
the
tx", (b)
the
tx comes from mpex (c)
the
tx is not on mpex's books
fluffypony: my wife breaks my joystick like all
the
time
nubbins`: danielpbarron at
this point i feel ok
telling you
to fuck off.
danielpbarron: i hesitate
to even attempt reasoning with you, because I believe you have "broken
the joystick" so
to speak
