mircea_popescu: and as an extra bonus, you don't marry a hot chick.
Ukto: i am tired of it showing up as unread. :P
kakobrekla: ill implement that as well!
Ukto: as a passthrough asset? not really possibly... a fund that manages them.. sure.. but not direct passthroughs
mircea_popescu: I request mods to delete this thread, as it has no use.
midnightmagic: 06:34 < mircea_popescu> there's nothing quite as grand as reading old asic corps threads. <-- to which corp are you referring?
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: i feel as though this would be best suited for smaller projects
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller well, creating jobs as a pretend-value proxy is a government racket.
thestringpuller: however my concern is that as btc businesses grow, those business owners won't want to invest in other companies, due to the astronomical chance of losing money
mircea_popescu: btc is now 2x as large as egold ever was at its peak.
mircea_popescu: as an aside :
mircea_popescu: there's nothing quite as grand as reading old asic corps threads.
Ukto: thought I did catch an episde of garrison as a woman screaming "Yeah! I'm a monkey! give this money what she wants! Put it in my monkey hole!"
Ukto: you should set that as a title
Namjies: It's an illusion... but so long as you don't hear it.
mircea_popescu: cost as for the nda drafting or as to the dev signing ?
midnightmagic: I meant that as a querulous-but-interested question-mark.
Ukto: that with your businesses taxes, as an expense of sorts
Ukto: most countries require that a company has to show actual profits (Sometimes of amounts) within X years, or they shut down the corp and deem it as a hobby
Ukto: well, at least you got someone in belize to act as a local director
Ukto: i think he was trying to justify his sites as the same as wow and secondlife
midnightmagic: When it's as blatant as PB?
Bugpowder: Some are listed as OVER MAX, when there were double 250BTC bets on the same address on the same magic number, but some of those were winners and some losers and I don't think they are counted
jcpham: my glbse haircut wasn't entirely as bad as i expected
mircea_popescu: it works out to about the same as pirate
mircea_popescu: as if writers are in any better shape than whores.
B0g4r7: As in produced a positive ROI for shareholders.
midnightmagic: It's just as misleading as goat was with his "hashrate" b-s which was really just an odds-less bet against difficulty going up.
mircea_popescu: midnightmagic i routinely gave them as examples of really shitty porn lol
PsychoticBoy: <mircea_popescu> such as PsychoticBoy's amuysing 3 btc a month "asset".<< it is only for fun not that I need to earn anything with it, I have a day time job
mircea_popescu: such as PsychoticBoy's amuysing 3 btc a month "asset".
mircea_popescu: this is cute. what's the point of having something that makes 3 btc a month listed as a security ?
Ukto: as I said, I have nothing aginst him, never ment to make it seem that way. Just responding.
Ukto: I had to offer something back as a thank you. :)
davout: as long as they're not too close to my bike i'm fine
dub: yea, firebug is a ff extension that does teh same thing as pingdom locally
jurov: dunno, it's not education exactly. i used to wrote hilarious essays as a child
markedathome: they aren't PR as such, but they do their own business pr IIRC. they are good for their business and sometimes intercede in other business events. don't know about their abilities as bitcoin proponents unless there are some audio / vids around
dub: wrt the joke defense, its a pet annouyance that people seem to think an unidentifiably sarcastic remark equals humour, notwithstanding, parroting the most commonly held myths about bitcoin hardly even qualifies as that.
toffoo: dub: why do you think that? personally I think evorhees is about as far from "idiot" as one can get in the world of bitcoin writers/commentators. maybe that's why no one calls him that.
Namjies: I recognize my address as well as some of my holders in there.
mircea_popescu: far as i can tell it's been bought all day since x.s
Ukto: yes counts as 1 positive
Ukto: no counts as 2 negative votes
mircea_popescu: D) The litecoinglobal.com website operates as a non-fiduciary clearinghouse
mircea_popescu: C) SHAREHOLDERS as OWNERS of a public company are OBLIGATED to act IN GOOD FAITH with regard to the company and its operation, including GUARDING TRADE SECRETS
mircea_popescu: anyone has any theory as to why hash rate isn't dropping ?
davout: and i use it as my avatar and public face because it looks slightly more professionnal than spongebob squarepants
davout: you WISH you were regulated as I am :3
Namjies: Those thing don't move as much in value. The 2% fee might get annoying.
jurov: and i'm ready to equip mm's with a code... as i spammed everywhere
kakobreklaaa: ciuciu: And to paraphrase Mircea and his friends, it is OK to look at porn, even to make it as you both do.
mircea_popescu: it's supposed to work as a simple way for 3rd party developers to finance themselves.
kakobrekla: use a referral souch as 27AF75321F2489E8
markedathome: you don't, anyone who refers gets some portion of that new users fees as a referral bonus.
sgornick: 1Namjies: Thanks. I guess I don't follow this channel close enough as the name didn't initially ring a bell.
smickles: mircea_popescu: also, this was funny http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/14k1go/btc_is_scammed_about_as_much_as_usd/c7dvwy2
smickles: and more of this http://blog.smickles.com/bitcoin/btc-is-scammed-about-as-much-as-usd/#comment-183
mircea_popescu: as in, the entire lending of btc thing is borkt.
mircea_popescu: acts as a sort of universal rate for a month
Namjies: I always say BitVPS as a good choice on MPEx
smickles: heh, apparently, people who come come look at my blog, now -on average- view a second page of it as well :D
smickles: jeez even such as wikipedia get it
smickles: as in the notorious z-o-t
Namjies: Last I heard last week, he had a new provider for servers. (Maybe his boss? Maybe that's the company he works for). He'd keep the BitVPS front and dividends as usual but would rent servers there. He's apparently very happy about it. Lower costs for him, and he gets 24/7 support free from the provider. Plus automatic provision upon payment.
smickles: Namjies: I might lend 100btc with MPBOR as colat.
Namjies: People just say rg is not much around, as far as I know.
Namjies: Aye, no one to loan me 100 BTC for BitVPS shares as collateral?
mircea_popescu: e have received questions from publications such as BBC and from Emirates Airlines’ Open Skies magazine.
smickles: no such thing as a valid point people
Namjies: Old website with basically the same logo as ButterflyLabs
smickles: thestringpuller: yo mircea_popescu scorcery is as scorcery does
mircea_popescu: "o, need as much personal info as possible"
Ukto: either way you get the same result 'this stuff is basically only worth something, as long as the community deems it worth something'
jurov: and the information is completely useless as to estimate the value
mircea_popescu: im curious what you have as 2
kakobreklaaa: for show as well.
pigeons: well they probably get the bitpay fee back as a bonus
kakobreklaaa: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/9722715/MI6-secrets-threatened-as-Swiss-spy-steals-a-mountain-of-data.html
JWU42: as many were starting to
JWU42: I believe, as PsychoticBoy said, both are not in a position to pay anything
JWU42: Yes, as did I with other assets
JWU42: as each of us had an amount of hashes to pay 2x weekly
JWU42: and as I said there will be no buyback at .07
Ukto: I honestly do question btc-e :P but it was still my fault as Diablo-D3 pointed out, for not having 2fa
Namjies: As for a statement from me... well I'm currently authed, do I really need to sign what I say to you?
Namjies: Not a single false claim so far, as far as I know.
mircea_popescu: you posit this as a point of personal prejudice.
mircea_popescu: Namjies and as you can see, it does precious good, they still do it.
mircea_popescu: smickles the worst part is that the most heard explanation as to why people won't list is that "they don't want to put up with the shitheads on the forum etc"
JWU42: I am in deep - just not as deep
JWU42: as some have said on the forums - it is similar to the morgage meltdown here
mircea_popescu: JWU42 i wouldn't get too excited. a lot of people are dealing with a lot of greif as best they can.
Namjies: No, the general population has no clue as to how news are mostly rumors, not even researched facts.
mircea_popescu: Namjies it just goes to show the general population has not the first clue as to wtf is going on.
mircea_popescu: smickles i guess if he has a tight knit circle and they use it, its as good as the circle
Bugpowder: as long as you follow people that don't post stupid shit
mircea_popescu: http://twitter.com/mircea_popescu << pretty much have it set as a sort of rss feed of my blog atm
Bugpowder: The usefulness is not from who follows you so much as the quality of who you follow
smickles: yeah, since we have not liquidate 100% of the assets yet, everyone gets an equal share of btc on hand, then an equal share of the btc from each sale as they occur
