the impression
there's a web revolution happening, which keeps
the investors "investing"
mircea_popescu: TATdoesReno as graham i
think summed it up,
the dotcom bubble consisted of
the following process : noob company bamboozles some backers for financing, goes and drops all
that into yahoo's lap for advertising.
pankkake: well, changing positions, even if
they steem stupid, is already better
than not changing
pankkake: a very good work station (including
the chair) is basically a month's salary. I wouldn't consider it as more

mircea_popescu: they're actually at risk of losing

KRS1: ref- banks and
that reddit
thread, US banks I
think have been like
that for a long
time
pankkake: "You can go
to multiple branches in a day/week but still you can't just cash withdrawal $10,000 in a single branch" so, what's
the issue really?
pankkake: KRS1> except
this girl has a face kind of like beavis <= lol, can't unsee
nubbins`: but i mean really. guy
thinks each building holds enough cash on-hand
to just dole out $20k
to each customer all day?
nubbins`: i was
thinking about
this,
there's a stipulation at both of
the banks i deal with here in canada

Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
Vexual: is
there a bet on difficulty in 11 months?
pankkake: are
the mpex diff futures dead?
pankkake: Vexual: nice bitches (ok
that was easy)
mircea_popescu: this is why
they do not in fact perceive
they need a business plan.
this is why
the very sensible "ask mp's permission first" comes
through as quite intolerable "before you may fuck youy must buy a bride from
the elders of
the
tribe", a limit on
the life of
the young male.
mircea_popescu: they do not with anything else
than
to matter,
to impose
themselves in
the world.
there's no business
there, just
the desire
that drives some poor
third worlder
to spam or beg or
try and steal.
the will
to live.
mircea_popescu: this is incidentally quite clear proof
that
they are not businesses in any sense of
the
term, but mere extensions in
the verbal space of
the will
to live of some
twerps.
mircea_popescu: every "business" has
to make its own a) altchain b) asic c) exchange.
mircea_popescu: so retarded
this, speaking of "exactly
the wrong
thing"
pankkake: it's like social media, you just have
to!
pankkake: but I suppose every bitcoin business has
to make its own asic
pankkake: well, except it has nothing
to do with what
the company is supposed
to do
pankkake: I didn't read it all
the first
time
pankkake: "The emergence of solar and wind farms
to generate inexpensive crypto-currencies and
the de-commissioning of carbon emitting mining devices."
Vexual: but if i go hunting all week for a mammoth dinner, ill be really cross if
theres no bacon for breakfast
Vexual: and if
the kids fall into
the fire,
theyre idiots
Vexual: well
they'd have some sort of wolf hound
too i imagine
mircea_popescu: mno, just,
there are specifiable behaviours which are both successful and also both statistically associated with females and conceptually derivable from
the feminine. no good reason
they shouldn't be specifically represented.
mircea_popescu: or perhaps a subgroup of
tards posing as feminists make it really easy.
mircea_popescu: why not stamp collecting ? what's feminism got
that stamp collecting ain't got
to make it
the cornerstone of random modern X ?
mircea_popescu: "Feminist software is a cornerstone of any modern free society. We build
this foundation." derp lol.
Vexual: perhaps
they decided
they liked amourous creeps
Vexual: i
think it was called circle of friends, but i can't find it
Vexual: i
think moxies girls made a real version of
that already for iphone
mircea_popescu: so on
the good news side of
things, i just picked up some indescript bark shavings and crafted a coupla bark flasks in eulora
pankkake: my gpg key expires in 2014. it seemed "far" at
the
time (I know I can edit it,
thankfully)
BingoBoingo: Anyway. If GPG forced a breathalizer I'd move
to NetPG.
BingoBoingo: I dunno, but I don't want
to live in a world where software prevents
that
BingoBoingo: Maybe sober me would be willing
to offer more of a bargain
BingoBoingo: Everything is negotiable
though in
this world pankkake
BingoBoingo: I also I hope... have
the balls
to pull one
to 4 of my
teeth for lulz given
time
to order some augmentin first
BingoBoingo: I have
the reserves
to honor
the whole of
the potsweetener on
the chess
tournament pankkake
BingoBoingo: I will be damned
though if I break a fucking contract in
the BTC space.
BingoBoingo: I may not be
the most culpable fucker around.
