mircea_popescu: jurov for the record, i'm not pushing it, asciilifeform is pushing it. imo the guy's walking around with shoes too large for his feet. but anyway.
mircea_popescu: was fondling this chick, accidentally touched the button, one hour later i was back on my feet.
mircea_popescu: if that indeed is how the chips fall i'll be quite impressed with satoshi's genius, for originally i thought the node pauyment problem was oversight.
mircea_popescu: you will be paid, by the miners who don't want to be ddos'd to shit.

mircea_popescu: "certificates are shit but nevertheless i don't understand anything and really want to matter so here's my authoritative opinion on shit i really have no business discussing
mircea_popescu: <pankkake> so kenilworthnothing is a scam? << it's an amazing business minus the amazing and the business part.
mircea_popescu: b0n1 as far as anyone knows they were not salted but put through 7500 iterations of whatever goop.
mircea_popescu: where intelligent men and women prostitute themselves to an ideal which no intelligent person could believe.
mircea_popescu: The whole enterprise of counting publications as a means to evaluating research excellence is pernicious and completely absurd. If a 12 year-old were to write 'I fink that Enid Blyton iz bettern than that Emily Bronte bint cos she has written loads more books' then one could reasonably excuse the spelling as reflective of the stupidity of the mind that produced the content. What we now have in academia is a situation

mircea_popescu: without being able to actually confront the fact that looky how fucking retarded we are.

mircea_popescu: now whether it was really sam/alesia/theswede/whoever the fuck else that came here to bitch under that nick.... who cares.
mircea_popescu: on the face of what he said, the former would seem to be rather the case.
mircea_popescu: we are discussing if this guy was actually paid by / working for labcoin or simply trolling.
mircea_popescu: we're not discussing whether this guy is or is not X random person irl.
mircea_popescu: dexX7 anyway, it's common for pr to repeat the official line. -pr quotes me all the time.
mircea_popescu: some emo chick that doesn't wash ironically is still an slovenly slut.
mircea_popescu: no, he came here because i went over on their chan for lolz.
mircea_popescu: Sep 30 22:34:00 <zhenhua_wang>mircea_popescu: you are simple minded. sorry but your are a psychopathic
mircea_popescu: Sep 30 22:27:12 <zhenhua_wang>once again we advise all investors to buy shares while they are cheap, We are confident in fact that the price will raise tenfold in respect to IPO
mircea_popescu: tho after his utter failure to rehabilitate that nick with his "vanity thread" etc i suppose it's not surprising he just let it drop.
mircea_popescu: he created a fake "short" asset for pirate, he has a long history of trying to be the "respectable" part of various scams.
mircea_popescu: dexX7 meni rosenfeld, the foil for the bdt scam, but much older history.
