mircea_popescu: i like these people running around. it's like... btctalk on a global scale
mircea_popescu: "The US Government isn't dependent on income for spending because it makes the money. The US government doesn't work like your checkbook, your household, your state, or even Greece. It goes by different economic rules, so it can run a massive debt and not go bankrupt. It can always pay that debt back (although some caution is warranted when doing so, because the debt itself often serves a purpose)."
mircea_popescu: and to think all those idiots were making a living wall around nefario, the forum is incredible.
mircea_popescu: Namjies the problem is that new lines in windows are /r/b
mircea_popescu: dude srlsy, six months ago nefario was in here explaining how omg wtf am i fud-ing his great exchange by saying the session get hijacked
mircea_popescu: <Ukto> i only used the account 3 more times after my account was 'hacked' that time magically <<< you too ?!
mircea_popescu: <Namjies> Different clients, different methods of signing << this is such a horrible thing ;/
mircea_popescu: if you do it half way... well... that won't be pretty.
mircea_popescu: you can scare them straight. you just need to have the guts to actually do it.
mircea_popescu: of course, if you're an idiot yourself the results won't be the same (hence, usagi)
mircea_popescu: fact of the matter is, the results are about the same whether you beat up the idiots or are nice to them.
mircea_popescu: which is unsurprising, seeing how it's a function of the number of idiots running around, not a function of what they do
mircea_popescu: i fail to see the difference. mpoe-pr brings a bigger stick, giga is always nice. overall the count of idiocy thrown at either is the same.
mircea_popescu: Namjies and as you can see, it does precious good, they still do it.
mircea_popescu: smickles the worst part is that the most heard explanation as to why people won't list is that "they don't want to put up with the shitheads on the forum etc"
mircea_popescu: last iirc from hashking was something ridiculous like 1/3 in 3 years.
mircea_popescu: the day glbse went down everyone in the know was "oh shit, check out the wave of 20 dollar investors tsunami nao"
mircea_popescu: JWU42 i wouldn't get too excited. a lot of people are dealing with a lot of greif as best they can.
mircea_popescu: <Ukto> jurov: heh, you know, when I mentioned I was setting up for the twatter crap, etc, no one bothreed to throw it out then :P << i had a number of times, but it's not for twitter, it's in general.
mircea_popescu: Subscriptions require a PayPal account, but there is an option pay annually (non-recurring) where you can just use credit/debit card, without a PayPal account. Get in touch for details.
mircea_popescu: and smickles you can get a gui wallet up to display any wallet.dat you wish.
mircea_popescu: that is
https becoming an isp quote is really on point. wtf they know, random strings.
mircea_popescu: it's real bad, show them a goose they swear they've seen a shoebox sorta thing.
mircea_popescu: Namjies it just goes to show the general population has not the first clue as to wtf is going on.
mircea_popescu: basically, some geeky/nerdy/internet types found btc first. finance types found it second, are marginalising them and it hurts.
mircea_popescu: i think the show where they fuck is a different format
mircea_popescu: oh come on. unattractive old chicks and losery douches hanging around and kevetching ?
mircea_popescu: so this other guy pointed out that show'd be great to watch when they're all like 48 or something.
mircea_popescu: jcpham man, my only exposure to it was the one time i was picking up this chick. i was with some other dude, she was with like 3-4 friends of hers. and they were watching... you guessed it...
mircea_popescu: he saw mpex being down in the backlog and wet his pants. then saw it came back up. stuck with sticky fluid on loins.
mircea_popescu: pigeons in its defense, it's the first time it was down in like six months.
mircea_popescu: smickles i guess if he has a tight knit circle and they use it, its as good as the circle
mircea_popescu: and im a history-type. even newspapers, i buy today, read in 6 months. or a year.
mircea_popescu: honestly, i much prefer irc. just the logging alone. twitter sucks for looking in the history.
mircea_popescu: but a year or two ago i used to be active. i guess its great if you're trying to hook up
mircea_popescu: i had a pretty large following, never quite saw the usefulness of it.
