kakobrekla: take t his http://i.imgur.com/0WZIZv8.png and change "Platinum" to "Anti" or something
HeySteve: some places that's legal there, so who knows
HeySteve: well mind you they're in canada
HeySteve: <+fluffypony> why do they need “six 10 tonne AC units" for that? <-another syngeristic enterprise they're incorporating to save children from cancer is growing pot for SR 2.0 under lights in the basement. just my guess
fluffypony: so is the 468x60
HeySteve: it's not very funny but has its moments. reddit was shouting to the moon because bitcoin was mentioned in last episode

kakobrekla: what is this even
gribble: Gavin Belson: Bio l Silicon Valley l HBO - HBO.com: <http://www.hbo.com/silicon-valley/cast-and-crew/matt-ross/bio/gavin-belson.html>; 'Silicon Valley' review: Definitely a start-up to watch | NJ.com: <http://www.nj.com/entertainment/tv/index.ssf/2014/04/silicon_valley_review_hbo_thomas_middleditch_mike_judge.html>; Mike Judge's Uncanny Silicon Valley | TechCrunch: (1 more message)

ozbot: Anti Bitcoin Foundation banners pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
kakobrekla: i dunno if you have been following the thread, but so far he spent more time typing out "im sorry theres no financial will do them asap" than it would took to actually make them
fluffypony: why do they need “six 10 tonne AC units" for that?
fluffypony: HeySteve: "6 or 7 terahashes" - so like two ASICs?
fluffypony: kakobrekla: pffft, financials, who needs them!
ozbot: Newnote Financial: pioneering crypto-currency transactions as online currencies set to change the fa
HeySteve: dunno if anyone heard of these comtracks either?
HeySteve: “Bitcoin protocol is like an app store and Bitcoin is an app. Right now developers like us are pioneering new financial tools and utilities that are going to be added to the 'app store' – financial services like escrow and contracts.”
HeySteve: on the plus side it's make things more international, the foundation being very US-centric is a common criticism
bounce: well, there's the government, and there's getting things done. the chinese appear to be quite used to the former getting in the way of the latter.
bounce: somebody cook up a "not affiliated with the bitcoin foundation at all"-banner, just to show how supportive you are of that bunch
mircea_popescu: it's beyond me what the chinese are doing buying this crap

fluffypony: what are your thoughts on altcoins, mircea_popescu?
mircea_popescu: definitely will be some like that.
fluffypony: more of a branding thing than anything else, with the advantage that they can be re-sold more easily than store credit
fluffypony: ya know, maybe altcoins will eventually be like those in-store reward credits you get
mircea_popescu: well if anyone wants to pick it up...
mircea_popescu: dude that wasn't so much of a try.
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: "[13:45:19] <+pankkake> I'm not sure why I even try, you just decided to be dumb today"
fluffypony: I can see Justin Timberlake doing that
mircea_popescu: i figure someone somewhere is definitely rubbing one off to the sound of white chattel going "ma nigga!"
mircea_popescu: i do confess this always strikes me as quite amusing.
mircea_popescu: Even beyond these political and economic incentives, there is a process of cultural dekulakization: look no further than the young poor Whites who now call each other “nigga”.
