mike_c: japan gets first crack at karpeles, that's gotta be worth something.
ThickAsThieves: i wonder if their penises will evolve to clits over time if it keeps up
mircea_popescu: in the end the effect is the same. japan as you know it is about as relevant to world affairs as the hitite empire.
mircea_popescu: but they did stop having sex altogether.
mircea_popescu: well japanese kids didn't start raping their mothers
mircea_popescu: all that is gone now. the reason ?
mircea_popescu: they survived ww2 and hiroshima as a traditional society.
mircea_popescu: so now, a cogent argument can be brought that japan was wrecked by its deflation years.
mike_c: well, the biggest debtor in the land is the govt. they aren't going to let things get deflationary.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: theft 'hormesis' ?
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves you recall the minimal theft argument ?
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell antephialtic the sort of people who take their information from btctalk and etc are better off not investing in btc stocks yet anyway.
ThickAsThieves: "The euro zone is far from the deflation that Japan suffered from the early 1990s"
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell benkay it was btctc if memory serves.
mircea_popescu: like that.

Mats_cd03: i need wot rating to edit the wiki :(
mircea_popescu: joecool now that's pretty cool! i had forgotten all about ;;events
ThickAsThieves: how do you enable 'enforce' of nicks? i'm registered in nickserv, is that how?
mircea_popescu: terribly weak, i bet. didn't they pretty much take over and end of story ?
VanCleef: speaking of media propaganda the funnest ones i seen was yesterday or the day before, but all american media groups were saying putin called obama about ukraine because putin is weak and looking for an exit
mircea_popescu: http://i.imgur.com/TRJRSgf.jpg << ahaha this is beyond cute.
mircea_popescu: "oh, it may be the case everything will be more expensive in the future, perhaps, BUT!! don't worry about it, you read last month all about how low inflation is!"
mircea_popescu: so putin threatens to fuck them up with the energy, quickly the propaganda brigade is out there with preparatory statements
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I'll address this deficiency
ozbot: Euro zone inflation drops to lowest since 2009
mircea_popescu: artifexd i know about you. i was talking to him tho :p
mircea_popescu: jayk can't believe asshole teacher had the guts to x that answer.
artifexd: I was here. Lurking. Watching it live. I just stayed silent because I had nothing useful to add. I did miss the "dank bank" comment.
mircea_popescu: often someone needs something done or there's an idea you can help with etc.
mircea_popescu: wywialm if you idle here and read, good ways present themselves.
wywialm: and what is a good way of building trust then?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo this should actually be in your manual. it's an absolute imperative, you can
mircea_popescu: otherwise you're just contributing tools to scammers.
mircea_popescu: hm, bitcoinpete's adventure is quite important : everyone with a WoT account : make sure you turn enforce on with nickserv.
mircea_popescu: generally the corollary of freedom is that well... you gotta stay vigilant. which explains why freedom is so deeply umpopular.
ThickAsThieves: it opens up those lenders to be targets too
ThickAsThieves: the borrow 1btc for a week thing is silly
mircea_popescu: nubbins`: i don't think borrowing and repaying is a particularly good way of building trust. < it's awful really, more likely to diminish the trust of the rater than to improve that of the rate'ed.
mike_c: kakobrekla: thanks, spam cleansed.
mircea_popescu: and before you make the kneejerk decision that you'd rather go where the people are, let me remind you that this is bitcoin, and that nonsense already took you to bf once, and then to havelock.
mircea_popescu: the20year1 it's all a question of who do you want to deal with. to me, forum trust means exactly zero. to the forum, wel... they don't even know whjat the wot is, they're barely discovering chan logs these days.
mircea_popescu: so what's the neobee announcement ?
mircea_popescu: nubbins` you're deluding yourself. whether there's a fee for participation or not, the defendant's risking something participating.
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell benkay what do you mean ?

dexX7: dirt_: i think no one knows at this point
artifexd: ;;later tell bitcoinpete If you're going to have "IRC Nicknames" in the title, maybe discuss them in the post proper instead of just the footnotes?
dirt_: Do you think neobee situation will last all week/longer?
dexX7: <Ukyo> whitty: give me a min. jsut doing some testing
dexX7: it's only a very, very wild theory
the20year2: so this neobee thing has to do with ukto?
dexX7: <Ukyo> Anyone awake with ukyo.loan shares? << related to neo? ;)
dirt_: I thought it was odd too. Mixing personal/business, and blaming a public forum? what, bitcointalk?
ozbot: Long Term Update: at support | Bitcoin Trading Signals
ThickAsThieves: cool to see the b-a site growing
ThickAsThieves: kako, it was me that suggested the wiki and categories, thx for making it
ThickAsThieves: Public investors currently hold 5,042,638 LMB Holdings shares (31.5164875% of the profits), whilst LMB Subsidiaries Limited (UK) shall hold 10,957,362 shares 68.4835125% of the profits), for a total of 16,000,000 LMB Holdings virtual shares, which represent 100% of the global profits of the LMB Subsidiaries Limited (UK)."
ThickAsThieves: considering the prospectus says: "LMB Holdings Share Structure
ThickAsThieves: this statement is odd "What’s even stranger is that LMB Holdings’ shares are not traded via Havelock Investments, only Neo & Bee’s."
ThickAsThieves: “My silence is for a very valid and personal reason, all the rumors that are flying about are false and couldn’t be further from the truth. I haven’t moved from Cyprus or anything of the kind I am TEMPORARILY out of the country resolving some big issues that were made much worse by people stating incorrect facts in a public forum.”
ThickAsThieves: While CEO Danny Brewster is out of the country and has not made an official statement on the events, he denied anything untoward about his actions.

moiety: <Namworld> "Hindsight and time-machine required" << lolol where can i get these?!
cazalla: Bitcoin price above $1000 before April - damn, did i get this bet wrong
Namworld: "Hindsight and time-machine required"
Namworld: That's not okay, kakobrekla. You should have sold all at $1200 to rebuy later.
antephialtic: yeah, well all those people sold at $1200 to the new batch of morons
kakobrekla: interestingly enough the conviction 2 years ago was exactly the opposite
antephialtic: and bitcoin seems to attract people that are exceptionally stupid.
kakobrekla: the brick and mortar trick is still something new in btcland
antephialtic: which, seemingly is not the case
antephialtic: investing in neo was basically a highly leveraged bet on the price of BTC itself, with the risks completely outweighing any possible benefits - assuming the business was completely legitimate
antephialtic: since 99% of their accounts were denominated in euros, they were hugely exposed to the price of BTC
antephialtic: though I think this will be bad for BTC stocks in general - this was a fairly elaborate scam, and many will probably not trust btc denominated investments for a long time
antephialtic: interesting to see the neo&bee scam finally implode
Namworld: All those news link block reading till you register. It's free, so why even ask for registration.
Namworld: okay, seriously... I'm not registering, NYtime, to view an article
moiety_: kakobrekla: a wiki? :D if you want me to proof it periodically, or anything else, send me a log in too :)
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: I'll take one of those wiki logins, plz
benkay: ;;later tell mircea_popescu what would be the implications of sorting gribble market output by exchange volume?
benkay: nanotube: what would be the implications of sorting gribble market output by exchange volume?
benkay: o wait this is not sorted by vol
benkay: helluva power law on the volume

MisterE: I just need a prompt to do it each day really
MisterE: yea just the auth request part
MisterE: hate that
MisterE: damn that spam is always triggering please moderate...
kakobrekla: i want to take the credit :D
MisterE: /quote PRIVMSG is a great thing
kakobrekla: ;;later tell mike_c spam got in your blogs comments
MisterE: I could do something like that with gribble
MisterE: Server connection commands is a better term... My client can perform functions when connecting to a network like i have it set up to auth with some bots that control channel access so I dont have to mess with it each time I connect.
MisterE: I should make a join command to ident

benkay: on what 'exchange' did dotcoin issue the paper he later did the forced buyback on?
benkay: pankkake: what was dotcoin's operation that did the forced buyback list their 'asset'?
