cazalla: i'm
trying
to find
the article atm BingoBoingo
cazalla: if i had
to guess,
the site was prob sold
to someone else who did it up
cazalla: ccn had a scammy investment club of which altcoins
they were gonna pump and even went as far as publishing an article apologins for all
the spammy shit
they post
BingoBoingo: I mean my shared hosting survived an intense /. admirably
though my long
term plans for
the blog lean
towards dedicated hardware for other reasons.
cazalla: ccn is one of
the spammiest blogs out
there, it improved a little over
the past year but it's just as bad as coindesk
BingoBoingo: ;;later
tell Heysteve Have you
thought about
taking your reporting
talents elsewhere or going independent?
The general quality of
this
thing you are writing for seems
to be
tanking and an exit plan is probably advisable.
pete_dushenski: that still opens up a whole whack of material, which is really
the point
BingoBoingo: It definitely isn't an impossible
task. Certainly more rewarding
that going around like a certain someone who imagines "<usagi> In
this case, mircea popescu personally does not like me because I can out-talk him."
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: i saw in
teh logs
that you're picking up quite a bit of romanian
pete_dushenski: lol not an impossible
task between my french and spanish
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: If you're going
to really be
the best MP scholar you can be, you need
to be able
to
tackle
the Romanian writings
BingoBoingo: Anyways pete_dushenski
That
Trilema goes nicely with your newest post.
assbot: Tara ca un hotel, sau o schimbare de perspectiva pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
ben_vulpes: maybe not *you* and maybe not *my* death, but you get
the picture.
ben_vulpes: "i may not agree with what you say, but i'll defend
to
the death your right
to say it"
assbot: Patriarchy is a
thing because nobody likes living in a world populated by little girls pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
assbot: Rape is fun, or let’s fuck up Adria Richards pe

BingoBoingo: I mean
the 1992 LA riots only really lasted what, six days?
ben_vulpes: if
the folks in power'd just let
the angry people run in circles for a day or
two
this shit'd have burnt itself out, no? instead,
they make
the whole
thing worse.
BingoBoingo: Well,
the problem with
this cooperative multiagency deal is
that no one knows what's going on and no one is effectively in charge
Duffer1: or
the mayor is saying one
thing and making
the police do another
Duffer1: it sounds like
the local police captn has zero respect for
the mayor
BingoBoingo: Duffer1: Well, it seems
the chain of command is either ineffective or non-existent
Duffer1: turns out state
troopers are still cops...
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: Basically
the first night when
the Highway Patrol
took over
there was much peace and reconciliation like Christmas 1914.
Then
the shitstorm resumed.
ben_vulpes: i was going
to ask you what
the story was over
there, bb

danielpbarron: 12:23 <+usagi> pgp keys do not shield you against legal action by
the government << maybe you are a
tomato
TheNewDeal: another interesting character in
the history of bitcoin...
usagi: I gotta go :/ will be back I suppose,
toodles
usagi: yeah and I'm not a
tomato lol (relevance?)
usagi: <+danielpbarron> Bitcoin is not about
teaming up with
the USG
usagi: If you have
to fight
the government for your freedom
then do so, beyond
that I don't see what dragging
the us government into
things accomplishes
usagi: The government has as much
to do with bitcoin as it does with you believing in
the whole bible
usagi: The government has nothing
to do with
this
usagi: So
the party line does not apply as far as I know. If you have different information I would love
to hear it
usagi: Today, I'm seeing
the same
thing with havelock. But with havelock
the situation is different. I have been informed
they are compliant.
usagi: But MP kept shitting all over GLBSE. Maybe he knew something, maybe he didn't, back
then we didn't really know
BingoBoingo_: mircea_popescu never got off a plane without anything identifiable
to customs as money
to support himself?
usagi: The issue is
that no one really knew how
things would play out
usagi: pgp keys do not shield you against legal action by
the government
usagi: Back in
the day -- can anyone
tell me -- what was
the difference between GLBSE and MPEX?
To prove a point
usagi: Here's a question I'd love MP
to answer
TheNewDeal: their compliant with
the foremost popular scammiest exchange at
the moment
usagi: Bingo you do what you feel you need
to do. I don't know you
usagi: TheNewDeal; No,
they are compliant
usagi: TheNewDeal; Like I said;
TU.SILVER paid out everyone what was owed. BMF merged with
Tu.SILVER, and I'm paying off
the investors. I just made
two payments
this weekend
to investors. I'm handling it.
danielpbarron: some wallet got lost because
the rented server something something hardware
TheNewDeal: well if you pick bullshit "exchanges" in
the first place, aren't you asking for
trouble?
usagi: LIke I said bingo.
The difference between you and me as a fund manager is
that I have lived
through 3 exchange closures and you suck up
to
the crowd here
TheNewDeal: well give me
the longer version of what happened
to your prior enterprises, and let me actually format an opinion
usagi: Anyways,
to cut
this shitball short. If bingo or anyone has any actual proof
that I have had poor outcomes beyond
that which is normal
usagi: Bingo, Rating me -10 because of
that is a little pathetic
usagi: Bingo, you hate me because I spoke
the
truth about you
BingoBoingo_: usagi: You are
the most dangerous kind of Idiot, because you seem
to sincerely believe
that your good intentions make up for all of your poor outcomes
danielpbarron: hey, you got people's attention; now if you start doing something
that's good for Bitcoin, maybe it'll
turn into good attention
TheNewDeal: I just
took a glance, I haven't
talked
to anyone
usagi: but
that
there's a small clique of people on #assets
that hate me because bitcoin
usagi: You would see
that everyone I do business with likes me
usagi: thenewdeal; So if you
talked
to everyone I have a rating with, what would you see
TheNewDeal: I had
the impression
that WOT doesn't
tell you something, it merely points you in
the direction of people
to
talk
to in order
to format an opinion
usagi: They put so much faith in
the system, yet seem blind
to what it is
telling
them.
usagi: The funny
thing about wot is it is actualy disproving some of
the crap people like bingoboingo have said about me
usagi: MP himself has written a number of interesting articles about it. Gotta hand it
to
the man he is educating people somewhat
usagi: Well yeah you're right. I havent been around for a long
time :)
usagi: Besides I deal in physical
things, real estate, and education --
these are not
the sort of businesses
that get funding here
usagi: Very few of my business ever came from IRC, and all of
the negativity did
usagi: To be honest
the main reason I dont come here so often is because it is a waste of
time :/
usagi: So he put me on ignore and
that's
that, I'm never getting out of
this prison
usagi: In
this case, mircea popescu personally does not like me because I can out-talk him.
TheNewDeal: not sure about your case in particular, but
they usually can smell a scam out before it stinks
usagi: If you have been here for any length of
time you are aware
the regulars here like
to name drop
that I am a scammer
usagi: The other side of
the coin is over here on #assets
