mircea_popescu: pankkake was a link here coupla days ago bout some game site
that got hussled by ny for 1mn over having made $3500 from exploiting user gpus
pankkake: and
those cpu coins are barely profitable unless you don't pay for electricity I
think
pankkake: botnets (except
those with good enough gpus, I
think
there is one
that was
targetting gaymers) don't mine scrypt anymore,
there are cpu-only coins for
that
mircea_popescu: Duffer1
the altcoin is sha256, not pumped and not premined. just like... you know... NO OTHER ALT out
there.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform indeed. as if such a
thing belongs anywhere outside of a creative reenactment society meeting
ThickAsThieves: but if
they dont use sha
they are fighting
the wrong people
mircea_popescu: i wonder how many people realise
that when
they hash scrypt
they hash socialism.
the20year: Don't quote me on
that , but off
the
top of my head i
think it's 90 days
mircea_popescu: so some idiot somewhere comes up with "non-asic" pow, so
that
the nobody may matter.
mircea_popescu: that shit i always found hysterical. man with a computer wants
to matter.
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> afaik
they've mostly switched
to altcoins now <<
the scrypt coins yeah.
ThickAsThieves: "The company has asked a French court
to suspend
this order while it appeals
the CNIL's decision and fine, but
the CNIL insists
that if Google can promote its own services on
the homepage, it can also publish
the news of
the sanctions."
benkay: the20year: how long do you expect
this IPO
to
take?
ozbot: McGruff
The Crime Dog Likes
To Get Hiiiiigh
ozbot: Plane grounded after failed hijacking attempt |
The Verge
mircea_popescu: they do have a cost, even if you're not paying
the elec. cost of opportunity in
that case.
the20year: buyahash's dividend has done pretty decently, but
their big benefit was a foray into equipment sales
mircea_popescu: most mining units by count are underwater
today, because of
the cost of elec.
mike_c: effectiveness is dependent on liquidity on havelock
though.
benkay: you expect
to convince me
the difficulty will decrease.
the20year: The big
thing we offer is a effective BTC short, since we're primarily denominated, and a opportunity
to get reasonable gains in fiat
the20year: I
think long
term
the growth will be fantastic, but i was also called a idiot when btc was at $1250
trying
to get more shares sold for fresh capital because
they expected btc
to hit $2k or $3k in just a few weeks
benkay: like a perpetual mining bond's value going
to zero.
the20year: We had shares already issued prior
to
the IPO
benkay: ipo page shows 48953 units outstanding, havelock announcement email mentions 78534. what
the ever loving fuck.
the20year: 78k shares of stock at .0055btc/ea , so if
those sell out we have $321k in cash
ThickAsThieves: In a live support chat with a Verizon representative, Raphael asked if
there was any
throttling of websites hosted by Amazon Web Services (AWS), which include Netflix, and was
told, "Yes, it is limited bandwidth
to cloud providers."
the20year: benkay:
that's a risk investors
take, otherwise it only makes sense
to invest in
things
that are like BTC exchanges, options ,ect
ozbot: Net Neutrality battle begins as Verizon appears
to
throttle Netflix-
The Inquirer
mircea_popescu: course.... where you got
the 78k from ? or what am i misunderstanding here ?
Duffer1: pretty much
the same
things
that's happened
to most assets
benkay: i'm interested
to see what happens when divs fail
to match btc appreciation.
the20year: even moreso when everything is not only filed with
the county, put online, but everything we buy has a
title company certification letter
too
the20year: Yeah,
that's just not possible with
the local government
mircea_popescu: pretty difficult
to fake land deeds (not
to mention felonious)
the20year: I might consider 25k or 50k additional shares on ciphertrade just
to
test
the platform out, but likely
there won't be another round of share-type funding, 1.125m is our goal from
this round and if we hit it we should be able
to get
the portfolio access I want
mircea_popescu: i guess
this is an interesting
test for havelock, because if
the kid now fails
to buy properties worth whatever he supposedly got from
the ipo
the difference will have
to somehow be explained.
mike_c: "we are releasing a
total of 228,534 additional units at .0055btc per share"
mike_c: that's
the first block. something like 220k
total (shares)

mircea_popescu: basically
the libor was a scam,
the forex is a scam
too. fiat is about as bad as bitcointalk
Mats_cd03: and
the front-end for a satellite dish was running vb6
Mats_cd03: i worked with .mil networking equipment
the other day
ozbot: UK watchdog says forex probe
to stretch into 2015
jayk: at least i dont have
to uudecode
them anymore
Duffer1: ;;google
transcranial direct current stimulation
mircea_popescu: why not put current
through your sister's brain like sane people.
mike_c: and
that's when
the design for cardano came
to you?
pLambert: wait, I misread it, I
thought it said
trading owuld poen soon, actually just IPO is open
mike_c: trading goes active before
the ipo is over?
pLambert: so, any guesses on how far RENT is going
to fall once
trading goes active in a couple hours?
benkay: cye is everything
that is wrong with america
herbijudlestoids: well in my mind its no argument
that seinfeld is better, but i enjoyed curb your enthusiasm
benkay: in any event, we now have a
test case for "you can raise it but you can't spend it".
benkay: havelock doesn't report
tick direction
to assbot?
ThickAsThieves: i wouldnt be surprised if
this is just
the beginning of negative PR on bitcoin fron cyprus banks
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves i
take it
the fuckit neobee ceo is all over
this rite.
mircea_popescu: basically, larry david was
the rock holding down seinfeld. once
they got rid of him
the show noticeably improved.
mircea_popescu: herbijudlestoids by
the way, i checked out s1e1 of curb your enthusiasm
