mircea_popescu: aaand here's a bit for trinque 's humanities studies : "Dies irae, dias illa solved saeculum in favilla teste David cum Sibylla ; quantus tremor est futurus quando Judex est venturus cuncta stricte discussurus!"
mircea_popescu: so i re-watched la grande belezza for like the twelfth time. it's possibly the greatest film ever made. or maybe i'm just slow -- for instance, only now did it finally occur to me that the giulio moneta, "uno dei dieci latitanti piu ricercati del mondo" was in fact a straight reference to m m denaro.
mircea_popescu: [plebem tuam per signum sanctae crucis ab obnibus insidiis inimiucorum omnium]

mircea_popescu: bitcoin plays right into my peculiar form of mathslexia ; i am thoroughly and forever degree of magnitude confused.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron i have 367k ones ; they were 36k and then the float happ[ened
mircea_popescu: including any marina outfitter i ever saw. 8k dollars would be like what, a roomfull ?
mircea_popescu: im not even sure there exist that many shops which keep that much cordage around altogether.
mircea_popescu: this discussion spurred me to realise that eg my 4k pile of high-quality coarse cordage is thereby worth like... 50mn ECu or so, nominally ? leaving how it would prolly sell for more than 100% (duh), that's likle... a toyota's worth of IMAGINARY coarse cordage ?
mircea_popescu: not even sure what they;'re worth by now, but prolly a benji or so.
mircea_popescu: lobbes remind me to give you a chetty stick next we meet ; for greater glory.
mircea_popescu: that moment when there's three different singlet earrings on your coffee table and you can't find your spare camera battery among them
mircea_popescu: tis wise to undershoot early and keep the loot for later.
mircea_popescu: the principal consideration here being that if you charge more than maybe a quarter or so, you're basically paying for someone to make a competitor.
mircea_popescu: and yet... it STILL seems two degrees of magnitude off.

mircea_popescu: seems like... two degrees of magnitude off. unless i'm fucking the math up.
mircea_popescu: so it's gonna cost me... 300 bucks if this auction ends up unbidden ?

mircea_popescu: trinque word! /me is like actually looking around the house for more shit to sell!
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron rather, lets see what happens first, 3 days pass or 10mn ECu become worth more than a car.
mircea_popescu: i guess i did, at that. poor slavegirls, how they slave, literally, over a hot stove only to be taken for granted.
mircea_popescu: o damn, have i forgot to mention the slave-made bread ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform to round out the mental image, smoked salmon, grana padano, pepper slices and pinot grigio (delle venezie, igt) spritzed with san pelegrino and ice.
mircea_popescu: (the wind power plant still unmoved. they missed out on like 30% of all the power they're ever gonna generate this year, because of this lulz. i do not believe it's a genuine technological item anymore.)
mircea_popescu: aaanyway, so i'm standing here on balcony perched up on this hillside while the winds gust all around bending the palms almost to the ground. the sky is mostly clear, with beautiful cloud coloring work.
mircea_popescu: ppl want to follow its auction list can just join there.

mircea_popescu: you know, usg politruks trying to abuse the legal system to harass males for no reason.

mircea_popescu: taking a line out is the largest non-tiny bit ; after taking two lines out.
