BingoBoingo: (If gambling was finance it would start allocating resources to building a more appreciative body for the remains of Halep's tits)
BingoBoingo: Pricing risk is also totally not finance.
BingoBoingo: At +915 I should have went 5 BTC agaist Serena trying to break the book as opposed to the 5 ten thousandths of a BTC I actually bet, but...
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I've had the IRL people refering to you as the BitKing because it helps impart a sense of scale. And helps enforce the idea that the only meaningful policy decision Obama could make would be to legalize the weed. Which would help Obama by making him less a hypocrit, but won't help Serena Williams get past Halep in the French Open.
BingoBoingo: So many choices. How do I pick the next one, but... Oh wait. Like literally the only activity I have mentioned myself doing is pricing risk (aka gambling). Any n00bs want to learn the art hit me up at 1LvCuntsJyFFQsLuJhBXBPokbQa7SAyMr4 with at least one BTC and a sig that can prove you sent it.

BingoBoingo: So... I just remembered Reddit was a thing and tried submitting a link only to find this http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1vnmb4/romanian_bitcoin_billionaire_saves_openbsd/
BingoBoingo: Huh, I just got 20 emails with the subject line saying "Millionaire" and the text body saying "Dumb Shit" me thinks someone has a botnet and bothered to strip my email out of my public key.
BingoBoingo: I like the isolated Dogecoin post in the slashdot mic
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: You know last year around this time when BitBet was the first parimutuel betting site in BTC with an open database I had IRL friends referring to you as the bitking
BingoBoingo: So... anyways Slashot in the past six hours has delivered at least two orders of magnitude more traffic to the blog than Paul Graham's shit pit which is a true Ohio of tech news.

BingoBoingo: simlay: Well... In this story yeah. If the story that got you here is the one I'm thinking of.
simlay: BingoBoingo: "Was made"? It's past tense?
mircea_popescu: not like everyone needs their news instantly.
BingoBoingo: Anything you hear in any other channel is probably olds rather than new.
BingoBoingo: simlay: This is where the news was made
simlay: Mostly just out of curiosity. I have little to add.
simlay: mircea_popescu: I read that article and it brought me here.
mircea_popescu: "Ah, the irony of OpenBSD paying for its computers racking up a huge electricity bill using money made by computers racking up huge electricity bills."
BingoBoingo: Fuck... As someone with log files to a site that has been target before. Slashdot totally dwarfs reddit.
BingoBoingo: Well, stan seems to have hinted far enough back that he has sufficient tools that that some actual loper may be close enough the feeble imitations of others would anger and/or disappoint him
herbijudlestoids: well, i have to go to bed early tonight so i guess im gonna /quit. nice to meet you strange people and thanks for donating to save openbsd mircea_popescu that was a very nice thing to do
mircea_popescu: i didn't know loper actually exists enough to piss stan off
BingoBoingo: Ubit was like loper--, built on Unix and x86 eventually pissing stan off to no end
BingoBoingo: I thought is was Stan's Loper--
mircea_popescu: makes the recently failed urbit thing kinda tame by comparison
mircea_popescu: lol good sauce of drama there. i had no idea bsd community is so vocal.
BingoBoingo: herbijudlestoids: Wait, you are waiting for me to spin a reliable narrative?

herbijudlestoids: "The pfSense project started in 2004 as a fork of the m0n0wall project by Chris Buechler and Scott Ullrich"
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: If only these people knew I only want open BSD so I won't have to run A/UX when I replace the cooked Mac SE/30
herbijudlestoids: because according to the devs its not open enough. theyve got beagleboard port tho
herbijudlestoids: mircea_popescu: there is no rpi build for openbsd :(
herbijudlestoids: i thought it was ported from monowall which is freebsd?
herbijudlestoids: i looked at the code last night on github
herbijudlestoids: i was thinking last night that if someone ported pfsense to openbsd that would be it, openbsd would take over
mircea_popescu: "Wouldn't it be more practical to replace a VAX with an R-Pi or BBB?"
BingoBoingo: Nah, openBSD rapes FreeBSD lovingly. Seriously I know they work for different purposes.
herbijudlestoids: BingoBoingo: not sure what that means? is that google fiber? here in australia we are still banging two rocks together to start fires for smoke signals
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo well just because the anonderps are at each other;s throats does not necessarily imply openbsd and freebsd have free-for-all wrestling matches in the dev cubicles.
