mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
tell me
this : how does princeton manage
to sell an item called "education" for more
than it's willing
to pay ? hgow does
this work, pay us 100k of your pre-tax money and make back 80k of it over 20 years ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform unless one is a
thermodynamics gaylord, it is irrelevant what living costs. you're running a business, not a charity. except in
the us, of course, where all
the <del>corporations</del> usg sponsored charities foul up
the market, and with it,
the culture and people's heads.
kuzetsa: this is
the opposite of
that
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, i find it very entertaining
that in
the vast majority of cases people wanting a job or a raise argue for
their income on
the
terms of what living costs, rent and whatnot. who
the hell ever heard of
that, i have no idea.
kuzetsa: that's not
the purpose of it
mircea_popescu: most
teenaged student chicks would run you about
three
to five hundred a month all included. so
that's almost 3 people in
their
twenties i nthat 1300.
kuzetsa: ThickAsThieves: I've done some procedural generation and engineering of sounds which are unlikely
to occur in nature -- stuff like a modulated frequency sweep vaguely based on
the harmonics of a bell, but with "strange" harmonics which probably aren't possible without having some rather unlikely (inplausible, might-be-impossible) materials which don't have a stable natural resonance
mircea_popescu: you can proly keep your own house and a pair of mistresses in
their own house of of it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ironically, more
than a decent salary gets you in dc.
mircea_popescu: because
the internet is
totally not a
thing and everything.
mircea_popescu: you know how many of
these i fucked over
the years ? what
the hell would i still ask.
ThickAsThieves: the mic was
too close
to her mouth mostly is
the problem
kuzetsa: yeah, cool edit for me in
the 90s
too
ThickAsThieves: i started in cool edit and fruityloops in
the late 90s
mircea_popescu: none of adobe's "improvements" actually made it better --- despite having actually purchased an adobe audition <<< oh, so very much
this.
kuzetsa: I use an old "syntrilium" (pre-adobe "audition") version of cool edit from like a million years ago because none of adobe's "improvements" actually made it better --- despite having actually purchased an adobe audition license at one point, expecting it
to actually be better and not just bloated
kuzetsa: ThickAsThieves: if it's
the
thing I
think you're
talking about,
the non-mac windows port is buggy, yeah :(
ThickAsThieves: ProTools
the only professional software
that still freezes Windows

the20year: my last message on
there was
that it makes no sense
to further
the
talk
mike_c: no
time like
the present
to correct
that.
the20year: because I made
the poor choice
thinking
that
their negative statements effected investors, so i would answer em
mike_c: then why are you discussing your business with
them on
the forum?
mike_c: this, by
the way, is a direct consequence of having
the wrong kind of investors.
the20year: That's what started it,
they complained about
the
two properties I had in my name. I explained why (in order
to get
the discounts) and
they went on
to something else
mike_c: oh right.
they were getting
their boxers in a
twist because of some llc shuffling you did or something.
the20year: Well, i
thought so,
till
they started poking around and started using statements i"ve made 3 months, 6 months, 10 years ago as 'proof'
that i'm lying about
things
mike_c: why
threats? seems
to me you've been running
things fairly.
the20year: all sorts of
threats ,ect
to call
the SEC and report me, which is funny because if
the company gets shut down
the SEC
takes all
the investor money
the20year: Well, so far i've had people find out every single piece of information
that can be found about me - name, address, phone number, where i live, my wife's information, all
the websites i own,
the address of where our
tenants live, ect
the20year: So, as long as
these guys don't do something stupid
to shut us down on
the btctalk
thread we'll be ok
the20year: I had set up 4 different
times
to meet with
them and something happened each
time , car broke down, airplane broke down, ect
the20year: fell
through, every
thing
that could have gone wrong
to work with
them fell
through and i essentially
took it as a sign not
to do
the deal
the20year: I had budgeted up
to 7% but
they came out
the gate at 5% or less
mike_c: hey, whatever happened with
that outfit in some other state you were going
to buy or fund or something?
the20year: I met with
the bank
today and got very, very good news -
The company has grown
to
the point (finally)
that
they want
to
take us on as a lending partner
mike_c: i am curious
to hear
the difference
mike_c: ah, ok. pm me a link whenever you like
them.
ThickAsThieves: mike_c i'm remaking
the audioz, i output
them all at listening volume by mistake
ThickAsThieves: <+mike_c>
TaT, you said we were in a bull channel and were going
to pop
to $700. you need
to buy different
tea :) /// if you look at
the chart it calls for a down before
the 700, grnated
the chart didnt go as far down as
today
mike_c: i
thought we might be about
to orphan a couple blocks, but seems not.
mike_c: but
they were falling behind. i check wol blocks against a couple services
to make sure i'm not falling behind. got an error
that I was -2 blocks behind blockr, and verified on
their homepage.
mike_c: kakobrekla: what? i see 312870 on
their site & api, and blockchain.info is on 873
mike_c: fluffypony: he's popped in a couple
times looking for you. i
think he's going

mike_c: TaT, you said we were in a bull channel and were going
to pop
to $700. you need
to buy different
tea :)

though
fluffypony: how
the fuck was he partially responsible? because he got on a plane and met

typing "nigger black nigeria" for another
test run
DreadKnight: too lazy
to register / auth more gpg around xD
DreadKnight: that's a bit strange, bot
triggering on
the b or n word? :D
cazalla: they've got
these
things called planes
DreadKnight: towards equator people are darker,
towards poles
they're whiter, probably because of
the heat / sun / angles / distances / light
cazalla: i don't
think we have
those here either
DreadKnight: seem something strange as well... we got gypsies around which are pretty much black; yet
they seen a black dude walking around (they're rather rare here) and
the gypsies (3 women and a kid) where like constantly calling "nigger!" behind his black; I was like wtf
