this chick?

BingoBoingo: I am working on strategies where such shit might not be necessary, but... So long as getting plastered on IRC is so close
to getting drunk at
the bar and getting my dick sucked...
these sorts of advisories might be necessary from
time
to
time.
BingoBoingo: By
the way, game is Blues versus Rangers, Blues -1.5
BingoBoingo: So...
That prize I sweetened
the chess
tournament pot with... I may have bet most of it on a hockey game
that happens
tonight/today (depending on
timezone)
BingoBoingo: pankkake: I can't wait for
the OpenBSD metadistro
that follows
the principles elided in
the Bash
that a hypothetical MP os does.
BingoBoingo: Huh, Maybe I should have
taken some
time
to pick up some S.MPOE before hitting
the post button.
BingoBoingo: Silver oxide is
the preferred cathode for many uses like watches and hearing aids because of
the flat discharge curve.
BingoBoingo: The big industrial use for silver
though is in button cell batteries
BingoBoingo: That property you mention of just attracting all of
the metallic dust is exactly why
they are in
there.
BingoBoingo: Namworld: If you want bigger rare earth magnets
take a
trip
to
the junk yard and price old automatic
transmissions (depending on
the attitudes of
the person running
the yard
they might let you open
the
transissions up
to just
take
the magnets).
BingoBoingo: Namworld: Well, if you have a good smoke detector you have a decent alpha radiation source. If you have a cool watch
there's a 50/50 chance you have
tritium illumination (tritium is beta emission so
the markers are lit by what is essentially wireless electricity). If you wrap
the interesting parts of smoke detectors in aluminum foil you can generate a borad spectrum of radiation.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_boy_scout Namworld: They just amass even metallic dust and repel some certain fluffs of dust, not sure what's in
them
Namworld: I just meant
to hold and
to sight
BingoBoingo: Namworld: Actually pretty boring outside of a few niche applications (silver plating your grounding
to kick it up a few notches, rhodium plating
things
to resist corrosion, jewel bearings [in which normal metals because of
the crystals
they are integrated in become precious or semi precious], and other uses for which precious metals or metal made precious are irreplaceable) Many "rare" earths have more interesting applications

BingoBoingo: benkay: I
thought
that was rendered broken and irrelevant last year.
benkay: i'm impressed by
the number of Application Error pages I've encountered surfing strongcoin.com
KRS1: except AM would have an increasingly hard
time paying back
their investors as
time goes on with difficulty increases
to consider and what not..the investment model wont work out imo
KRS1: AM had
the right idea
the20year1: and it's all from companies
that have
trackrecords of underpromising and overperforming
the20year1: But ben
tells me
the stuff on
the horizon in q2 and q3
this year is gonna be insane
KRS1: if i had
taken
that same money and just bought bitcoin..heh..would have been a much better deal.
truffles: but ure saying ud still go
the greed way
kakobrekla: i know i would do
the right
thing, speaking from experience.
KRS1: i'd be reasonable about it
though..greed gets you in
the end.
truffles: ud
think about it but
then ud be
thinking
to self, nah im not
that guy
KRS1: hell if i was in
the hardware business you'd have a hard
time convincing me not
to mine with customer equipment. i would make sure
there is a significant burnin period. bet
that.
kakobrekla: yeah well i made a bank off pirate,
that doesnt mean he wasnt scam.
KRS1: the20year I ordered bfl equipment, it made my ROI many
times over..it sucks it
took so long, but
then again my receipt did say "PRE ORDER".
the20year1: they, single handedly, have moved bitcoin equipment from
the realm of 'normal electronics'
to high-risk merchant services, in
the same class as porn, diet pills and 'get paid
to surf online' businiesses
the20year1: But, as far as processing goes, BFL has screwed
the entire industry over
truffles: dont we get plenty of
that daily
the20year1: If he would have
truly uncapped, and not had
the CC processor issues he could have sold $100k worth of machines per day
carpet: Look at interest coming for LTC asic. people postively begging
to
throw
their money away
the20year1: When my brother was preselling his last asic
the order volume was crazy
kakobrekla: just look at all
the monarch preorder people now crying
mircea_popescu: sorta works
the other way, i've noticed, derps keep going "o mp is evil", some guy in chan yest was all like "it motivated me
to check it out"
mircea_popescu: it's just funny
this shit, people keep
thinking
they're bringing down a
ten
ton hammer of withering criticism which makes me go "hey,
this shit sounds perfect".

Things Lab's blog: Introducing Qubes Odyssey Framework
mircea_popescu: t make any requests, and don't expect anything, ever. If you have a problem, fix it yourself or get lost.
They're NOT writing
this software for other people
to use.
They're writing it for
themselves.
That's it."
mircea_popescu: "With OpenBSD, you have a community of hard-core asshole isolationists who freely and openly express unrestrained disdain for
the less-knowledgeable, don't care about
their users, don't want more users, don't entertain requests from
their users, and who would prefer
that you get lost rather
than bother
them. If you can figure
their shit out,
they're not going
to stop you from using it, but don't ask any questions, don'
☟︎ carpet: I heard
there was a party in germany
KRS1: theres one

to hit our funding goals
carpet: when is

the20year1: All it
took was posting on bitcointalk,

carpet: unlucky bitcointalk proxy image he can no longer send
tracking pixels
carpet: had never been
to any of
these meetings
though
carpet: its cool I had brought bitcoins from 3 of
those people
Azelphur: when I met him, I walked up, sat at
the
table, and just said hi BCB, based on
the conversation I'd heard walking up
to
the
table I knew it was him xD
carpet: he does some odd data collection
tricks..
Azelphur: yea, he seems
to give off
that impression haha
carpet: I had always
thought BCB was government employee
Azelphur: in order from left
to right, BCB, aldur1, me, genjix, FishFish, BigBitz
Azelphur: yea
that was from Bitcoin London, lots of banking execs
Azelphur: far left is BCB, far right is BigBitzz,
the other guys you all won't know
Azelphur: that's me

the left of
taaki, fyi xD
KRS1: who are

mircea_popescu: what we need is a picture of
taaki,
the fat girl
that broke
the segway and her bf.
carpet: mark karpeles spotted at popescu dinner
table
Duffer1: looked like disco king
there
mircea_popescu: seems almost as if stupid arguments are a very small set
that just keeps getting repeated whenever someone's half competent.
mircea_popescu: you know, possibly
the funniest shit coming out of
the openbsd story is
the following comment on wired : "Yeah, an OS
that almost nobody use is obviously "safe", since bad guys have no incentives
to spend
time attacking it."
Duffer1: omg MP how popped is your collar in
that photo
VanCleef: i just
think you could be doing more
