diametric:
mircea_popescu: thats what i thought but i have been getting booted off freenode an abnormal amount of times. maybe it's shitty ipv6 freenode servers and entirely coincidental.
Anduck: and
mircea_popescu ofc you do shady things, you know what i mean.
diametric:

mircea_popescu: I'm going to write up a letter/note and give a poster & instructions to each one of my tenants, then offer a discount if they use BTC to pay for their rent( even if it's a fraction of the rent).

mircea_popescu: <decimation>
mircea_popescu: "all through 2015 we will be seeing a shitton of 50-somethings with so-so credentrials going all weirdo on bitcoin." << no they just realize that bitcoin == no free money for 'retirement' << the problem there is that they actually DID work, and should have some money. problem is, in typical tardstalk fashion, they got scammed and having nothing left, are now siding with the scammer.
decimation:
mircea_popescu: yeah that sums it up nicely
