nubbins`: some junkie goes
to Insite
to shoot up, not only does he not give himself hep/aids, but he's now in a room with people who can encourage him
to seek
treatment
benkay: no
to be flip but idiots with btc = scam burden
benkay: doesn't really address
the heroin side of
things,
though.
nubbins`: know what's cheaper
than AIDS
treatment?
nubbins`: you just posed a
tautology as a question
benkay: i seriously do not get it. consider it a flaw of youth, and
this your opportunity
to larn me a
thing.
nubbins`: you seem smart, you should be able
to figure it out :D
nubbins`: benkay, i'll leave
that as an exercise
to
the reader
BingoBoingo: nubbins`: Just one Mayor
that has been Caught. Eventually your Marion Berry will find
their Kwame Killpatrick
nubbins`: "pipes are a quarter? maybe i'll
try smoking rocks"
nubbins`: people piss and moan about "oh

mircea_popescu: benkay you know you'll eventually have
to put up a feed.
BingoBoingo: nubbins`: Only in Canada where your Mayors endorse
them
benkay: babeface walked into a sharp
thing on my mother's pilates reformer last night, and
then went running/sledding drunk and naked in
the snow afterwards. now she's dancing around
the apartment wincing and cursing whenever she lands on
the bum leg.
mircea_popescu: which wasn't
that far off,
the op went into a hysteria of nutty posting
ThickAsThieves: shameless request
that anyone who hasnt rated me and has good reason
to, please do
ThickAsThieves: well get
them all in wot and we'll see who weighs what
Duffer1: he claimed some
technicality in
their agreement or some such nonsense
ThickAsThieves: <Duffer1> he scammed some guys he devd a coin for by premining
the shit out of it --- isnt
this like impossible
to get away with?
Duffer1: but manned up and apologized on
the forums, hasn't changed his ID
Duffer1: he scammed some guys he devd a coin for by premining
the shit out of it
ThickAsThieves: i'm rolling
the dice and sending some btc
to
this exchange
ThickAsThieves: <herbijudlestoids>
ThickAsThieves: yo you around? --- for a few minutes or so
the20year: 4.5m
total aussies at
that
time, 7.5m canadians at
that
time
mircea_popescu: herbijudlestoids his model is fundamentally broken.
the relative prices of currencies are
to a large degree fixed politically.
nubbins`: yeah,
there's some connection between newfoundland and passchendaele
the20year: And
they kind of had
the similar opinion/use of commonwealth
troops during ww2, just look at dieppe
the20year: Australia had sometimes similarissues, but more canadians were involved in events like passendale and
the somme
that obliterated large division sized units
the20year: Yeah ,
that was pretty common with commonwealth
troops during WW1. All
the colonies got screwed by England when
they started having manpower shortgages
the20year: I'm big on ww2 history, it was pretty easy
to find out whether
they sent infantry, i was pretty sure
they sent something
mircea_popescu: that'd be
the only proven and conceptually sound
transmission mechanism,
mircea_popescu: pretty much
the only way
to profitably invest in equity in
the soviet us is by being friendly with
the us politburo.
herbijudlestoids: the whole point of
the hussman funds is
to invest based on proven
transmission mechanisms
herbijudlestoids: so wut? does
that have any proven link
to higher stock prices? no
mircea_popescu: the argument is
that in
the actual dysfunctional economy as it is, without any accounting or reporting,
the fed can SAY it did anything it pleases, and SAY it had whatever effect it choses
mircea_popescu: herbijudlestoids
the argument isn't
that in an actually functioning economy with actual accounting and reporting
the virtual equivalent of
the fed could prop up prices by printing paper.
herbijudlestoids: mircea_popescu: well he doesnt really view
the "fighting
the fed" angle as valid, he doesnt believe QE has any proven mechanism for higher prices and shows pretty convincing data on
that front. his view is
the rally since 2009 is entirely attributable
to
the FASB mark
to unicorn rules
the20year: I guess it's better
than flying
the UK flag
nubbins`: mildly funny
to see canadian flags flown on remembrance day here
the20year: Canada -
The poland of
the commonwealth
herbijudlestoids: mircea_popescu: it
turns out in hindsight
that
their method would have worked perfectly but he wanted
to be sure
mircea_popescu: so he's fighting
the fed on his shoestring budget ? what is
this,
the internet ?
the20year: Granted, many
times under control of idiotic english generals
herbijudlestoids: so hes been essentially fully hedged since 2009 and paying for
the puts
herbijudlestoids: mircea_popescu: basically in 2009 he mandated
that
they stress
test
their method on pre WW2 depression era data
to validate it, and consequently missed
the bottom. by
the
time he was satisfied
the market had returned
to overbought/overvalued/overbullish/rising yields state
nubbins`: a newfoundlander invented
the gas mask!
the20year: i didn't realize people lived
there
nubbins`: "lel jk about
that restriction
thing"
nubbins`: "we are a large company
that wishes
to build a highrise"
nubbins`: "we have height restrictions on all buildings in
the downtown core"
nubbins`: if you want
to plunder resources
nubbins`: mircea_popescu,
there's no such
thing as a hassle here
mircea_popescu: nubbins` maybe
the hassle of getting permits is such
that
they're just making a point.
the20year: Specifically, i was looking at building a methane digester and compressing
the gas
the20year: the one I looked at
took 50%
to 70% of
the input
to compress it
the20year: We have 40c days here in Ohio and
that's usually what
they do
nubbins`: i have a hard
time believing
that
the compression systems are so uneconomical
that
the better solution is
to just waste it all
cazalla: the20year: nope but i don't
think
that'd done much for
them in 40+ heat for 5 days
the20year: The compression systems aren't cheap, but i did manage
to find one a few years ago
that ran off of natural gas
nubbins`: well
that would be
the sensible
thing
the20year: They used
to do
that all
the
time locally, but anymore
they bottle/compress it or something else
the20year: Nubbins, you in
the US or somewhere else?
cazalla: i had
to bring my meat rabbits inside
nubbins`: fun fact, we have a
ton of offshore oil fields here, and
they just burn off all
the natural gas on site instead of doing something useful with it
the20year: Our record low with windchill so far
this year was -50
mircea_popescu: cazalla well now we finally know who's causing all
the global warming. STOP IT
nubbins`: maybe all
this weird weather is from not burning enough dinosaur mud
the20year: we're gonna hit -17c a few
times next week
mircea_popescu: herbijudlestoids
trying
to discern if i should have his history dug up or not.
cazalla: we've had heat wave after heat wave over
the past few weeks in australia
mircea_popescu: some people from somalia had
to drive
to kenya or something
the20year: Car slid off road
today into a guard rail.
This is
the worst winter I've ever had
to drive in
the20year: I had
to shovel a 2ft high ice wall last night
mircea_popescu: the rest of
the country, well... some snow. nothing huge.
the20year: How is romania right now in
terms of snowfall mircea_popescu?
mircea_popescu: i bet nubbins dad could be sent
to ohio by cazalla's dad
cazalla: My brother sends
twice as many DHL packages as your brother
