mircea_popescu: not everyone belongs in
a palace. most people belong in the huts, so as to have palaces. for just
a few.
mircea_popescu: if he doesn't want the risk of breaking
a nail she can do w/o the crumb.
dub: no, dick is giving her
a poison chalice
mircea_popescu: dick is giving her
a crumb in exchange for her scratching his back.
mircea_popescu: this is false. dick is
a pretty cool guy. jane is
a worthless pos.
pigeons: "civilised" is
a vague/loaded word
mod6: you've had
a bunch of good posts in english on trilema, so thx for that
mircea_popescu: should give the people who didn't learn math in school
a chance too
mod6: maybe i'll get
a chance to write something though, we'll see. I just got this new lappy working - its /way/ faster for running the android emulator
mod6: I read the post for sure - I think its
a really interesting/worthwhile idea to get some well-thought out discussion on the matter.
thestringpuller: How do you know the writing contest won't be
a political campaign
mircea_popescu: i am the fucking dean of age of btc finance. this is sad, i've barely been here
a year.
Atomic-Closed: And is all fairness, I am being
a bit harsh, but if nef runs, are we all just SOL?
smickles: mircea_popescu: yeah, but he let shakaru set up the farm after he welched on
a massive debt
Atomic-Closed: He stated he had
a plan if nef didnt do as promised
smickles: it's really tough to prove
a negative statement
JWU_42: hmm - that is
a bit different
Atomic-Closed: Im considering posting hte address of the mining farm on the forum to atleaszt get
a response from the op
BTC-Mining: If you don't have
a proof/document that anything is owed...
BTC-Mining: But the issuer don't even know who is or is not
a shareholder. Taking input wouldn't even be feasible.
Atomic-Closed: Considering that the dividends are to be payed on
a set scheduled, and statements have been made to how they will be held until the GLBSE crap is over without the input of the shareholders
BTC-Mining: I just don't see how you can pay anyone claiming to be owed anything without
a proof. Claims will be much higher than what's owed.
Atomic-Closed: I mean I have been trying to contact the issuer of an asset listed on GLBSE for over
a month and have been ignored
Atomic-Closed: How does one get ahold of their asset issuer to avoid filing
a suit?
smickles: ya know, that btcjam should really be setup where borrowers say what the highest rate they are willing to pay is, and lenders enter bids for the rate, that way, if
a listing fills, new lenders can knock out older lenders by bidding the rate down befor the listing closes
smickles: oh, no more funbot? or was that
a diff. chan.?
dub: if its
a what do bitcointalk users think about $subject discussion, who gives
a fuck
mircea_popescu: "Prohibition was essentially
a religious movement backed by the Methodists, Baptists, Congregationalists, Scandinavian Lutherans and other evangelical churches."
smickles: ooooh, we poked out above the 30 day sma for
a short time
BTC-Mining: I'd personally prefer
a condescending tone if she believes someone is acting stupid. Not that aggressive tone. Insults never get your point across. Just makes the opposite side that much stubborn.
BTC-Mining: She's awfully arrogant, insulting, etc. She's like some kind of rabid animal. That she's right on many things doesn't matter.
A rabid animal ain't nice to approach.
EskimoBob: I think your alter ego, that foamy PR cunt, will get her imaginary ass handed to her on
a rusty platter
EskimoBob: mircea_popescu: but this thread idea is not that bad. In those hard times we have now, people need
a way to let it all out and say what they think. :)
EskimoBob: it's like
a pool of vomit. Lots of regurgitate crap
smickles: well, yeah, CPA licensing take
a minimum of 2 years in most places
smickles: once i'm
a cpa in
a few years, I can audit public companies
smickles: hehe, i even made
a post in that forum
dub: is that
a chain where you constantly involve yourself in scams
dub: theres
a Terracoin now?
smickles: thestringpuller: well, i was, but I was reading
a book
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: can it take place in
a post apocalyptic world?
mircea_popescu: i used to do that
a lot on trilema, but obviously for romanian.
jurov: thestringpuller, do you want to do something now? i'll be leaving for
a hour or two
Diablo-D3: my god, what would happen if him and robert downey jr, like, made
a movie together
Diablo-D3: potc may be his most famous role now, but its sure as hell not
a difficult role for him
BTC-Mining: I shall thus call it
a major failure to provide me Bitcoins en masse.
BTC-Mining: and I didn't get my discounted by 90% bitcoins for Bitcoin Friday. What
a letdown, way to blow up my hopes.
kakobrekla: not gonna stand in the way just
a word of warning
Garr255: definitely don't ever treat
a game like this as an "investment"
Garr255: but the game is going well, off to
a bit of
a slow start though
mircea_popescu: not really. you need
a lot more credibility to make
a mpex than to trade usd for btc or back
mircea_popescu: understand, it's not like i have
a deathwish for mtgox or anything. they're doing something valuable and so on.
Lyspooner: mtgox merchant solutions is
a nice component of their business
mircea_popescu: for instance, irl an exchanger is bled try in taxes and reg costs, but also protected, because you need
a license to do it.
mircea_popescu: and also because irl currency exchanges are in
a much better relation to the respective govts
Lyspooner: well if it is
a fair analogy then it has been
a fair analogy for the past two years
Lyspooner: but mtgox:currency exchange::mpex:stock exchange isn't
a fair analogy
Lyspooner: from BFL apparently: ""We'll notify you at least
a week before your order is ready and you can send your FPGA in. We are working on
a way to cross ship you the device, so you don't have any downtime. It will probably involve you sending us BTC for the amount of the device and we'll refund the BTC when we get your FPGA unit back."
jurov: uhm, i was ging to fix slightly recessed roof tomorow... perhaps that can wait
a month
jurov: for not bad
a price :DDD
Lyspooner: 2011 was
a scary time to be in euro
mircea_popescu: for anyone that still remembers april times tho... it was
a really scary time to be in bitcoin.
smickles: on btcjam, that %, is that the term % or
a yearly %?
kakobrekla: jurov if you need 100 btc i can lend it to you for
a month
Lyspooner: or i'll just go buy
a hat and some honey
mircea_popescu: jurov but i think in
a world where absolutely NO OTHER measure exists or is used, this measure, flawed as it may be, is much better.
mod6: i bought
a new lappy, just setting it up... bbiab
kakobrekla: its all
a bubble, sell before bitb comes out i tell you!
