mrstickball: yeah, so
that means everyone from Ohio is an idiot, and you should never do business with
them, eh?
BingoBoingo: There are lots of reasons
to doubt Ohio is going
to last
the next decade, much less
the next century before it collapses into a North American Somalia.
BingoBoingo: And
the movie Major League didn't exactly paint a flattering portrait of
the state
benkay: the20year: it's a reference
to
the difference between what happens on havelock and what investing actually is. reading comprehension ftw.
the20year: Based on pollution problems from
the 1960s and a college in
the state
BingoBoingo: mrstickball: No. I am judging
their land
tied rental business based on its location.
benkay: yeah, you found some suckers. doesn't make what
they're doing investing, doesn't make what you're doing not insane.
BingoBoingo: the20year: Because maybe Ohio might decide
to make
the rivers flamable again? Maybe
the whole state collapses into Earth's mantle after a football loss.
mrstickball: BingoBoingo: so you're judging someone based on a university
they are not affiliated with?
the20year: If
there's no demand for said paper,
then
there's no demand
the20year: BingoBoingo: and
those are economic factors because?
benkay: it doesn't matter. you don't get
to set a price for your freely
traded paper.
BingoBoingo: the20year:
That part where
that river lit on fire in your state.
The General shittiness of
THE Ohio State University needing
to emphasize
the "THE",
there are others
fluffypony: mike_c: sure, doesn't have
to be peanuts
tho - 1 BTC isn't a bad
trade OTC
the20year: Our stock is based on USD, and
that was
the price of USD:BTC at
the
time of re-issuing
benkay: sell at
the market price.
that's
the honest
thing
to do.
mike_c: <+fluffypony>
the20year: just go and
trade OTC with any of
those people << if
they give ratings for
trading peanuts OTC
benkay: yeah,
this "havelock's
the problem here!" whine carries absolutely no water.
the20year: with suspending shares for 2nd phase? I'm not aware of any option
they have outside of it
ThickAsThieves: <+mrstickball> benkay: correct me if I'm wrong, but
that is what Havelock does <<< only of
the20year allows it
fluffypony: the20year: just go and
trade OTC with any of
those people
BingoBoingo: the20year: I
thought I made my position on Ohio well known in
the past.
mrstickball: benkay: correct me if I'm wrong, but
that is what Havelock does
BingoBoingo: benkay: Maybe
that is a part of it? Maybe it isn't.
benkay: I'm averse
to
trusting
the20year due
to
that whole 'suspend
trading and sell stock at a fixed price'
thing, BingoBoingo .
fluffypony: the20year: you can get enough
trust
to voice yourself
the day you join
the20year: So I've been working on ratings for 2 days, granted mrstickball i don't
think still have enough
trust after a year
to voice himself
BingoBoingo: the20year: Well I'm averse
to
trusting you because of
that
thing where you consider Ohio viable enough
to make it a core part of your schtick
mrstickball: the problem is
that he never bothered with core/OTC until recently
the20year: You'd
think i'd be able
to drum up more people considering i've been given along
the lines of 1k btc
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [B.SELL] [PAID] 42.37371273 BTC
to 7`589 shares, 558357 satoshi per share
BingoBoingo: the20year: for srs has no one
trust in you?
assbot: Voicing
the20year for 30 minutes.
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [B.MINE] [PAID] 2.38507092 BTC
to 7`589 shares, 31428 satoshi per share
benkay: the point is
that
those who can voice do so if
they feel moved by
the spirit
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [DEALCO] [PAID] 5.00000000 BTC
to 50`000 shares, 10000 satoshi per share
ThickAsThieves: what's
the point of +m if someone just gets voiced every day by someone else?
benkay: the man can't self-up,
ThickAsThieves.
benkay: ;;gettrust assbot
the20year
fluffypony: the20year: you have
to be in assbot's l1 or l2
to up yourself
the20year: I would have
thought mrstickball would have had a high enough rating for auto voice
assbot: Voicing
the20year for 30 minutes.
bounce: my experiences with uk recruiters is... not good. "not enough unix" when
there's six flavours on
the old cv,
that sort of stuff.
fluffypony: so
that's how you become a
thought leader
fluffypony: this UK exchange
thing is becoming a living, breathing No
True Scotsman fallacy
fluffypony: Christian Papathanasiou is "widely considered a UK
thought leader"
bounce: oh yes, why not. entirely run by non-residents.
there's a novel idea.
fluffypony: EVERYONE should start one and claim
there's is
the only
TRUE one
fluffypony: bounce: wow,
there are so many "One
True UK Bitcoin Exchanges" right now
ThickAsThieves: <+bounce> I'm not asking whether
they would be donating anything. I'm asking whether, in case some company would like
to donate and deduct,
they can do it with off-shore money --- well,
they can't bring it back without paying
their due. i suppose
they could donate within
the host country
though. I really don't know
the facts.
bounce: I'm not asking whether
they would be donating anything. I'm asking whether, in case some company would like
to donate and deduct,
they can do it with off-shore money
ThickAsThieves: even more likely,
they are biding
their
time for a
tax holiday or special workaround yet
to exist
ThickAsThieves: bounce, my guess is
that
they may not necessarily be donating
that offshore money, but
that
they have less need
to spend it
there in
the short
term
than
they have need
to spend money in
the US. Sorta like
theyve diverted more assets overseas
than
they need, but no so badly
that
theyre willing
to eat
the
tax hit
to bring it back.
kakobrekla: fyi, when you scroll in /browse/,
theres a delay added intentionally on loading new data, because without it, it was
too fast and didnt look good.
bounce: re apple borrowing
to pay dividents,
they've been doing
that for a while.
though,
thinking about it... are
those off-shore profits still
tax deductible when gifted
to charities?
mike_c: static pages are nice
that way.
mike_c: but i'm
thinking i'll whip up an includable .js
that writes out
the image and a supplied affiliate id.
then affiliates can use it in
their advertising.
kakobrekla: on a side point ,
the site is quite lightweight
mike_c: but i have like, crazy
traffic! BB might get swamped :D
bounce: *iwilcox* [...]
these guys should be in #bitcoin-otc-uk
this evening:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=583152.0 [...] -- post from
the 24th, claiming "We have developed a NASDAQ style exchange platform" and bitcoin/GBP for starters; logs
then show a post 110 higer claiming
to be "the only
true UK bitcoin exchange".
☟︎ mike_c: well, i'm
thinking BB might get mad at my server and rate limit it.
mike_c: yeah,
that would work.
the default should be
to grab from open bets (which it doesn't check right now).
kakobrekla: you could do like ?id=1,2,3
to feed it
the pool from which
to select
the displayed
text ?
mike_c: proof of concept is slow & unstable (pings BB in background), but wouldn't be hard
to make it solid.
mike_c: so, last night i was on bitbet and was
thinking
that it would be cool
to have a dynamic banner ad
that promoted bitbets. aspiring affiliates could use it
to make big moolah.
mike_c: aw, sheesh. fricking widget is busted. who coded
this crap?
mike_c: cumulative ROI from inception, it can be hard
to
tease out useful info. idk.
mike_c: there's a widget for calculating cum ROI across any
timespan on
there
kakobrekla: are you gonna do cumulative charts
too ?
mike_c: absolutely. just send me 1
trilema credit.
thestringpuller: yes please. will you read it
to me
tonight before I go
to bed
mike_c: yes, would you like me
to read it
to you out loud? :)
mike_c: good writeup. a bit harsh on mark, but he can
take it.
mike_c: mircea_popescu: i
thought you'd like
that article. i am a fan of cuban, he's good people.
fluffypony: and
there's a lot more
to mining
than cgminer
ThickAsThieves: well it at least means
the vertical might actually exist
fluffypony: ThickAsThieves: yep I know, but hey - competition is good for
the soul;)
