mircea_popescu: yeah, at least a dozen diff south korean/japanese/hk/etc producers could do it too
mircea_popescu: even apple or amazon could do it, if they weren't fucktarded.
Namworld: I mean, the piles of cash thrown at any random new bitcointalk.org user claiming to be developing an ASIC

mircea_popescu: that's pretty stellar considering the industry standards.
ThickAsThieves: so if I understand correctly, Cointerra is finally shipping. the 2nd batch of customers getting units along with the 1st batch. The machines are not to spec, but customers get a 15% coupon to buy more of them, as consolation. Refunds in fiat are allowed.
mircea_popescu: wasn't it illegal to process payments ?
ThickAsThieves: in the US?
ThickAsThieves: i like how he defines We Wanna Break the Law as "engage a legal debate"

mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves "and we are conveniently forgetting to mention the other people who have been doing it for years and have much more volume than we everf had even in fiat"
punkman1: mircea_popescu: you just need to build a big boat, they'll come willingly
mircea_popescu: i wish this happened, seriously. if you could somehow get all the 20something derps their own fucking country...
ThickAsThieves: “We are not here to engage in a legal debate, we are here to serve up the very first legitimate workaround to the complex online gambling laws in this US market. We are returning to Americans their freedom to choose and giving them their power back!”
mircea_popescu: ahahaa o gawdy, that wikipedia article rules.
BingoBoingo: Maybe they will find out Vesseness has a bong? or Hearn?
mircea_popescu: "He proposes a shift away from specialist thinking towards a creative society of generalist knowledge workers."
mircea_popescu: at least that's how it ususally works.
mircea_popescu: i would bet the next move is some internal drama with someone leaving in a huff.

truffles: u try so hard to be the big dick though
mircea_popescu: it's not that small.

mircea_popescu: makes sense tho, if you didn't let random doofus self-report all the nice stuff they think about themselves
truffles: -assets seems to dislike ppl i like woot

mircea_popescu: ;;google amir taaki wikipedia
mircea_popescu: meanwhile things like interscamgo have been laughed out of the space, and all he's left with is his expertise, which... you know. standup comedyt
mircea_popescu: anyway, genjix used to think himself important, back when bitcoin consisted of me, some decent programmers which mostly meanwhile left, and a bunch of fucktards, just like him

mircea_popescu: well then thanks for bringing it up, shall be checked
mircea_popescu: once the demon restarts and it discovers your bet, it takes the blockstam time.
mircea_popescu: Neil i think it goes by block times
Neil: I don't think bitbet gives bettors their true time when it falls behind like this... which is kinda unfair
ThickAsThieves: taaki is just jealous he had no friends to throw him under a bus, and no bus headed in is direction

ThickAsThieves: isnt it time to finally cut the cord?
ThickAsThieves: not sure why paracoin is using goxprice tho
ThickAsThieves: i may be getting the details wrong but that's the gist of it
ThickAsThieves: no, the keychain app sees "google.com" in the url, and autofills the hidden form, then youre fed a poll or some such other "submit" button
ThickAsThieves: i dunno, something to do with keychain apps
ThickAsThieves: note that google Sites allow an exploit to autofill hidden forms
mircea_popescu: https://sites.google.com/a/tcilgl.com/paracoin/ << anyone saw this ?
mircea_popescu: Namworld that'd be the first time kakobrekla missed one.

herbijudlestoids: obviously theres 2 of 3 style transactions, is that adequate? escrowe?
herbijudlestoids: is there space in the bitcoin ecomony for some kind of dispute arbitrage over payments?

Azelphur: Apocalyptic: that'd be Oliver not listening to me again when I told him no IRC server
Azelphur: that's one of my things I'd like to work on in the future, he asked for the 6 month plan, which goes beyond the FPGA ;)
Apocalyptic: "this will be our temporary home while we setup our IRC server", Azelphur why would you setup your own IRC server for 1 channel ?
