mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i just went
through
the list of names
there, which remarkably i had pretty accurate
to begin with. crossing out
the outright liars, like psychological compulsive sort, and
the idiots, you're left with maybe 2-3 names
BingoBoingo: I got
the /.
twice, but I am beneath
the background necessary
to
treat
this right
copumpkin: but anyway, as I said, I'm not opposed
to doing
that at some point :)
thanks
mircea_popescu: if you note, i said "full length
treatment, with notes"
copumpkin: it doesn't
trump
that I have
to get up for work in a few hours and need my beauty sleep
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: I'm not opposed
to it, but am not in a huge rush
to spend my
time on it either :) and would rather it be done in a formal setting so someone else can
take care of summarizing/transcribing it :P
mircea_popescu: seeing how rthis
topic is bitcoin, it kind-of
trumps any other
topic, even if some other
topic may offer
the illusion of importance.
mircea_popescu: copumpkin
the usual benefit. a furthering of human knowledge on a
topic.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Given
the nothingness published pre-August2012 publishing means little. "Shall be delivered"
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo for
this purpose publishing beats signing.
copumpkin: I don't see what
the benefit would be
BingoBoingo: copumpkin: DO a writeup in
the next couple weeks, GPG sign it
mircea_popescu: if
that does happen,
this write-up will be a great
thing
to have.
copumpkin: given how much
the fucker
talks about me
copumpkin: I'm sure if
this goes anywhere serious
they'll call on me
to
testify
BingoBoingo: copumpkin: My
time is probably
the least valuable, but your insight is probably
the most.
mircea_popescu: what, you
think i just sprout
this shit randomly cause i'm bored on irc
mircea_popescu: copumpkin you're in a very good position because you have
the skill and
the experience.
copumpkin: joecool: you've made
that joke before, it's getting old
BingoBoingo: copumpkin:
The veggies need
their prison
tomorrow. When you wake...
copumpkin: I'm sure you can find someone with less valuable
time
to summarize
the shit
mircea_popescu: how about you make a full length
treatment of
the whole
thing, with notes ?
copumpkin: well, I read
the whole
thing, not sure carefully fits
copumpkin: I'm sure he was freaking out and
trying
to come up with more convincing crap
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: I dunno,
there were several pretty awkward moments when it was clear he'd been caught in a lie
mircea_popescu: which says, don't mess with
the stupid, his brain's well rested.
mircea_popescu: copumpkin no, not for both of
them. romanian expression is "nu
te pune cu prostu' c-are mintea odihnita"
copumpkin: moustakis had
to stay focused
to catch all
the crap
the guy was saying, and I'm sure pirate was in overdrive
trying
to crank out more crap
mircea_popescu: it's like you sign up
to be a chiropractor, and you end up sent
to practice in
the loony bin
copumpkin: must've been exhausting for both of
them
copumpkin: I liked
the bit where
they said "so wait, your company folded and you're in
trouble now because someone screwed you out of 202k coins, and you forget who
that someone is?"
mircea_popescu: "Pirate: And when I find
that information, I will give you
the updated information and show you
that
this was not a Ponzi scam. Just give me
time. I promise you."
BingoBoingo: Eh, I'll keep driving
the shitty family sedan. No one suspects...
copumpkin: mircea_popescu is
too cool
to drive, walks around with an open shirt on
the street
BingoBoingo: Oh,
the reasons I found a drive
through miracle maker for my disorderly conduct misdemeanor, allegedly
copumpkin: they should ask
the FBI for some of
those SR coins and buy
that mclaren
that went up recently
mircea_popescu: and if
they were
taken seriously
they'd be just... you know, off
to soylent plant
copumpkin: and
the guy is getting
the SEC
to drive him
there in a car cause he doesn't have a car anymore
mircea_popescu: e/nasizm
thing as some suggest. it's simply
that most defendants are
too stupid
to live
mircea_popescu: this is really
the reason prosecutions are so successful in
the us. it's not really some sort of nefarious police stat
mircea_popescu: (ie,
there's an absolute lowest limit a judge'll allow for self-critting idiocy, otherwise anyone from
the inner cities would be doing >9k years)
mircea_popescu: well actually... i
think in his case
the meth defense cuts in
copumpkin: I
think he got himself into more
trouble
there
than he would be in if he'd just admitted it
mircea_popescu: actually... he only came up with chaang noi after his 6 months of laying low for
the bst
to blow over.
copumpkin: I was amazed at how much crap he spewed in
there
copumpkin: there was no way for pirate
to
think
that goat's name is chaang noi :P
copumpkin: he's also muddying
things by lying
copumpkin: lol, you google my nick my name is
the first result
mircea_popescu: he fucking sends email with his name on it, what's not
to know.
mircea_popescu: Q: You mean Bitcoin Savings &
Trust investment activity?
mircea_popescu: A: Because it wasn't on
there. It wasn't on
this database or on
this website. It was
tracked
through a - what was
that - not Sales Force. I can't remember
the name of
the website. It was something we just worked out
together. And it has a lot of his
transactions.
This account looks mostly like my stuff.
mircea_popescu: A: I guess Gigavps, but it wasn't on Bitcoin Savings &
Trust.
mircea_popescu: A: Just an account used for basically his own lending account.
They borrow coins real quickly
to make cash
transactions and stuff.
mircea_popescu: A: Yes. And he had a separate account
that was a hidden account.
mircea_popescu: Q: Meaning for Bitcoin Savings &
Trust Investment
transactions?
mircea_popescu: Q: Next account, Gigavps, is
this a
true and accurate reflection of Gigavps' account history with Bitcoin Savings &
Trust from on or about April 3rd, 2012
through on or about August 22, 2012 ?
BingoBoingo: Seriously, baseball's saving grace is it mixes
the randomness of dice with
the potential for
talent
mircea_popescu: whatever you do
to your resume it can't end up worse
than
that exchange expert guy from a while back
cazalla: mircea_popescu: can i put
that mention on my resume? seriously
though,
there is much
to learn here for someone like me
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
They might. For football it might be necessary. Actually
the biggest PED among handegg players I've seen is
the ganja.
BingoBoingo: I've only had one huge gambling loss
totally plastered.
mircea_popescu: i wonder if superbowl/whatever advertising sports will eventualyl run out of money so bad
they'll add new rules such as "each player must drink
twelve shots of vodka before going on
the field"
BingoBoingo: mike_c: Actually
totally plaster in sports have offered much better returns
than sober and axious
mircea_popescu: but generally speaking,
the dice model is
the engine
that can power a lot of cool applications down
the road.
mircea_popescu: tbh i
think dices have a future, but as backing for other services.
they're currently exposed
to
the general public becaus e whatever, we're in
the pdp and vax days over here.
mircea_popescu: obviously not
the dice site's problem, but also kind-of dangerous for
the random idiot.
mircea_popescu: this is actually a bit of a problem, people can sit down at
their computer drunk as fuck and
think hye, gamble my whole wallet on dice!
mircea_popescu: "Allowing drunk patrons
to gamble and serving obviously intoxicated patrons are both illegal under Nevada law. Johnston's lawyer says his client's story is bolstered by surveillance video and eyewitness
testimony."
moiety: i just heard of it
today
too
