to steal power. it goes unnoticed in urban areas.
mircea_popescu: im pretty sure utilities are required
to report
the
top 5% iirc it was consumers in dormitory neighbourhoods.
Dalrymple: I
think she might have been selling some of
the panels
too
mircea_popescu: led
to avoiud
the high energy consumption police screen for sort of
thing ?
Dalrymple: Weed has a high profit margin, which probably increases in proportion
to
the crapness of
tv and
the sugar content of junk food
kakobrekla: yes yes but where is
the addiction part
Dalrymple: She's using
the led panels
to grow weed
kakobrekla: <Dalrymple>
The boss was a disgusting she-prole who I later learned is a drug dealer, she was
trying
to get me in on it - ordering LCD panels from China < you can get addicted
to ordering panels from china!?
chetty: omg would you guys stop with
the feminist garbage! just shot
them all and get done with it
Dalrymple: Yet if a man acted like
this
the feminists would accuse him of "mansplaining", which proves
that
they are capable of irritating portmanteaus but oblivious
to
their own hypocrisy
benkay: // don't ask for clarification, or other difficult questions.
that's sexist.
benkay: When a woman
tells you something is sexist, believe her.
benkay: Do 50% (or more) of housework. // or pay for it
to get done?

Tools for Men

Dalrymple: Thanks dignork,
that would be appreciated
dignork: Dalrymple:
there are sellers in #bitcoin-otc, if you want I can give you some minimal instructions
Dalrymple: Thanks,
that site was
the first one I came across, so obviously I will have a proper look around for verified sites before I buy anything
benkay: where's ninjashogun when you really need
to make a point...
assbot: Does it
take money
to make money?
Dalrymple: She was
trying
to get me in on it without initially revealing what
the panels were for, luckily I left before I got involved
Dalrymple: The boss was a disgusting she-prole who I later learned is a drug dealer, she was
trying
to get me in on it - ordering LCD panels from China

Dalrymple: It's funny actually, I have capital
to spare on something like
this due

benkay: nobody in here's going
to argue
that btc are a bad buy, even at 5k/each.
Dalrymple: I am
totally new
to
this but it seems like a pretty secure investment
Dalrymple: I've been doing some research and am considering buying a coin since it seems from what I have read
the price is due
to go up soon
Dalrymple: The man himself prefers antique books
to computers
mircea_popescu: so
today being a week since S.WOL floated, mike and i each got 2`250`000 shares deposited.
Dalrymple: Just stumbled over your blog
today and
thought I'd say hello here
pankkake: forms suck, because
there are standard
tools
to write
to people and you can't use
them
mike_c: um, do you find it offensive if
the form is just an option? alongside other contact info?
mircea_popescu: i have no idea how could one be more offensively impolite
than making a contact page and
then putting in a form.
mircea_popescu: ians realize
the dollar system is not in
their interest, and
they are going
to leave it. . . . If any significant part of
the world stops using
the dollar,
the price of
the dollar falls because demand for dollars falls, and
the import cost for America would rise. When you see how import dependent we are, it would mean a substantial rise in
the real cost of living for most Americans.”
mircea_popescu: On
the Ukraine crisis, Dr. Roberts says, “I
think Washington badly miscalculated
this whole Ukraine business. It was an act of hubris, arrogance and stupidity.
They are mad at Russia for blocking
their attack on Syria and blocking
their attack on Iran.
They said ‘we’ll
teach
them.’ We’ll give
them
trouble in
their own backyard and not
to get in our way anymore.”
The
threat of sanctions has made
the Russ
mircea_popescu: where did all
the guys
that used
to argue with me about
the fakeness of usg published figures go!
mircea_popescu: h quarter. Most likely,
this coming quarter,
they are not going
to be able
to hide
the fact
that it is negative. . . . I am convinced
the first quarter was negative, and I don’t see how it could possibly go positive in
the second quarter.”
mircea_popescu: On
the steep drop in GDP growth of a paltry .1% in
the first quarter, Dr. Roberts says, “What I find most amusing about
this is
they had
to claim some real growth in
the first quarter; so,
they eked out .1%. Now we know
they got
that by rigging
the inflation number
they used
to deflate
the gross domestic product (GDP).
The real GDP in
the first quarter, properly deflated, was negative and probably also in
the fourt
mircea_popescu: difference goes
to having "duly authorised" badge
to show.
mike_c: call it
the
tx fee in
the UI, and don't actually pay
tx fee (or reduced fee). difference goes
to author.
BingoBoingo: The multibit authors are explicitly moving
to
this model now
mircea_popescu: actually i'm kind-of surprised nobody has yet made a bitcoind/bitcoin-qt which
takes a few out of every
tx and sends it
to author.
benkay: if i read
the parable correctly, Mr. Market is
the idiots en aggregate.
benkay: well,
that'd be one
trade every
ten months :D
benkay: i'm not an oddsmaker, guys. i make like one
trade every six months and sit
the fuck on
top of it.
mircea_popescu: much like bitbet,
there's ways
to have edges here
too. mostly on
the vol/vol angle i guess
BingoBoingo: benkay: In
that case your chance
to buy is before
the game starts
benkay: i like my edges, and i like
them sharp.
benkay: yeah but in
the open market i can say
things like 'o hey mpoe will probably be worth quite a bit in
the future." and play based on
that.
mircea_popescu: you
try
to ensure it by calling
them "open", but alas...
mircea_popescu: benkay
this has
the advantage
that it's a provably fair stochastic process.
benkay: ugh open markets are about as stochastically bouncy a
thing as i want my money anywhere near
jurov: mike_c i don't like how it shows
trending behavior from start
to finish on most of
the games
mike_c: benkay: it is a secret plot
to give bingo all
the ATC
mircea_popescu: mike_c i was
thinking, i didn't even know
this shit was possible.
benkay: i do not understand
this
thing
that you've done, mike_c .
mike_c: that is
the biggest domination i have ever seen, and i've watched a lot of
these.
BingoBoingo: Irony is it seems some of
the most damaging
things
to life's cause were... Life Bombs
assbot: War of Life - Cellular automaton
to
the death!
thestringpuller: how will
the underprivilaged be able
to live without socialism?
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller i was using btc as a unit of account stylistically,
to underline
the lulz
that is fiat.
mircea_popescu: benkay if one's in
the business of making money out of nothing, one's stuck doing it.
mircea_popescu: then if you need 1k btc
to cover your profile you just
take yields
to 0.1%. or w/e, 0.00001% if need be.
mircea_popescu: where if you have 100 btc at 1% while
the yields atr 0.5% you book a 200 btc passive.
