truffles: i could look into a system
to find such an answer but it wouldnt be useful
to me
herbijudlestoids: i must admit, in nov of last year when i randomly read a
thread on bitcointalk where someone was asking for projections of how fast difficulty would grow into 2014, i scoffed at someone suggesting it would simply continue at 30%/month
truffles: u dont have
to direct it all
to me noa lol
herbijudlestoids: surely 28nm is starting
to approach
the limitations of physics
herbijudlestoids: truffles: any opinion on when bitcoin difficulty might level off from its current insane
trajectory?
truffles: random
topics occur all
the
time itc
herbijudlestoids: would you like
to have a discussion about an unrelated matter
truffles? politics perhaps? macrofinancial implications of energy resources in
tajikistan? gardening or mycology?

the bitcoin soap opera, standing RSS feeds, and
the blogs of
this chan, well

too much
to read
truffles: my interests n urs unlikely
to align
herbijudlestoids: i dun get it...i havent been paying attention
to
this corner of
the internet at all until ~6 months ago. i only heard about
trilema
this month...i dont have credits so have
to wait if i want
to see what half
the links in
the chan are about...i read
them
tonight and found
them really good...so whats
the problem?
ThickAsThieves: i
think
truffles is more implying
that it's all a bit
to cultish for him
herbijudlestoids: ok..so basically im not allowed
to enjoy
the writings of a blogger? because...he has enough people who also appreciate it?
truffles: its no surprise
that ppl in certain channels share views
truffles: although uncomfortable isnt
the word id used
ThickAsThieves: truffles it's good
to read
things
that make you uncomfortable
herbijudlestoids: truffles: i have no problems saying i identify with plenty of
things he wrote, for example about education
ThickAsThieves: yeah just get urself some
trilema credits and plug
the cookie into any of your commonly used browsers
herbijudlestoids: i dunno if
the WoT will end up as
the identifying force for
the world, but its a nice idea

trilema articles finally showed up, mircea is a very good writer imho
ThickAsThieves: 'I like
to
think

to manage.
kakobrekla: anyway
the point is
there are
things in between g5 and g5
herbijudlestoids: kakobrekla: lol like i said, i
thought you were
talking about a mac G5, you were suggesting instead of repatriating BTC profits and getting
taxed,
