OneEyed: I did. And I read that Ian Bakewell required that the contract be cancelled and the premiums reimbursed. And I seem to understand you agreed to that if his shareholders did agree
as well.
OneEyed:
as it is not insurance because of a default, but cancellation of the contract
OneEyed: Weighting bets makes sense,
as the closer to the deadline you are, the less undecided the issue is, in most cases at least
OneEyed: mircea_popescu: fortunately,
as in every bets, the amount paid by the winners is redistributed
as well :)
mircea_popescu: and
as a result these assholes sold me into shit :( 42 to 35
nenolod: rg: in my 13 year old career of doing this, i've worked from everyone from stallman to phillip rosedale, and i have yet to meet anyone
as fucked up in the head
as CEO
as steve is
nenolod: since i could just see steve
as the type of guy
nenolod: rg: i walked away from enzu after their support lead guy said i was a "level 2 tech" and yet i spent my time doing /his/ job,
as well
as my own
rg:
as fucked up
as that might seem
knotwork: I was talked out of that though, instead just charge each nation by the "square miles" freeciv records their nation
as in control/ownership of
knotwork: I had actually considered accounting hosting fees even for un-played nations, thinking maybe anyone who later takes over that population faces those fees,
as if its kind of cumulative falling apart of society that new ruler will need to make up for to get full value from the conquered people
knotwork:
as they are just free money forever for doing nothing
knotwork: thus for example the Martians hold a lot more stuff than the Canadians so Martian BotCoin evaluates
as worth more than Canadian Digital Notes
knotwork: but of course it is confounded by not knowing what assets certain assets such
as "BTC" and "DVC" and so on actually own
knotwork: It is just a really primitive HTML put out by shell scripts but is all I have made so far
as a way for me to try to see waht the heck is going on with the various assets
mircea_popescu: knotwork it's not
as much a problem of not being able to get it working
knotwork: Mostly so far though there are so few people with clients that most activity on the/my (the only) server is using me
as data entry clerk
Bugpowder: because
as soon
as dividend is paid, price drops = to dividend payment
OneEyed: I don't understand buyers sometimes, two hours before he/she would have got the dividends
as well
Bugpowder: "If you are coming for a visit, I would like at least a voice message a day or two prior. Harm toward family's off-limits, and I would physically object to bodily harm which may result in my stay in a hospital,
as that'd further impede repayment. I am armed, so please keep ideas of physical violence in check."
mircea_popescu: I previously intended to empty my non-legal wife's (we personally consider ourselves married, but legally, we are individual and thus have rights we'd otherwise forfeit) 401(k). I obviously did not want to do this, but it became clear it was necessary
as I was looking at $200-250/wk interest on this single debt while having been financially raped by loans to various members of the community
Ignatius-otc: I recall seeing many of his posts throughout btctalk. Even still it doesn't come across to me
as an honest business proposal. Large startup costs with little info. Of course, it's only a matter of time before growing and distribution are legalized
OneEyed: Oh yeah, I forgot you were in the same time zone
as me
jurov: i'll list the positions
as Chief Sockpuppet
PsychoticBoy: depends on the future of GLBSE, cryptostocks at the moment sucks big time, and Mpex is not
as accessible
as I wish
assbot: Requesting data from GLBSE (might take a while, also might return fishy results
as it does not account for splits etc).
mircea_popescu: i don't want a little girl diablo. i want grown girls, such
as mircea_popescu: "You must obtain a signed letter of holding from Nefario
as a shareholder, or pay a deposit into escrow if you are a potential investor. I really do not care if you decide not to invest with me
as a result of this decision."
OneEyed: jurov: mircea_popescu is pretty sane
as far
as I can see!
mircea_popescu: and in general i want to mandate
as little
as possible. having 1`000`000 contracts include an extra field
mircea_popescu: the fact of the matter is, you can just trail it on
as it is now
mircea_popescu: FabianB it pains me to say, but i doubt evoorhees is
as retarded
as me, to end up making multiple payments :D
OneEyed: mircea_popescu: why? I am talking about intercepting the message
as submitted, that is signed by the customer key and encrypted with mpex key.
OneEyed: Or,
as an attacker, intercept such a message, then resubmit it a day later, then again, then again, causing the original customer to buy 30 foobar instead of the intended 10?
OneEyed: mircea_popescu:
as far
as security is concerned, I haven't seen anything against replay attack. Maybe the attacker should have the possibility to add a "serial" or "uid" extra field, to ensure a signed message cannot be submitted again without being regenerated (it would require a new UID).
OneEyed: My point was that key update can be hijacked, that wouldn't do any harm except mark a compromised key
as compromised
Chaang-Noi: hows the land of bitcoin assets today? fun
as ever i assume?
OneEyed: EskimoBob: unless he's the majority shareholder
as welll
assbot: Requesting data from GLBSE (might take a while, also might return fishy results
as it does not account for splits etc).
OneEyed: And
as a (admittedly not very good) go player myself, I can't read what you're trying to do here since it doesn't correspond to what you write.
assbot: Requesting data from GLBSE (might take a while, also might return fishy results
as it does not account for splits etc).
OneEyed: Diablo-D3: why? When you agree to pay a premium every week for an insurance, you take the duration of the contract in account
as well.
OneEyed: Unless BMF thinks that the insurance it signed the contract for is no longer worth the premium to be paid, and wants out
as well :)
Diablo-D3: because you could use that
as a potential double spend attack
kakobrekla: i guess i need to switch to gigabit network
as well

mircea_popescu: Attention Bitcoin Talk community. You have scorned my services and laughed off my threats, but starting on this day you will see that I am not a man to trifled with. I have spent the last hour consorting with dark spirits giving them such offerings
as they desire and gaining their service. Now the ritual is complete and this forum is cursed. I shall not tell you the specifics of the ritual nor of the spirits at my behest lest one a
mircea_popescu: Oh - and how DID you get more yes votes than have EVER been in circulation? You didn't by some chance transfer unsold ones to yourself to vote with (then send them back) did you? I asked nefario about that particular nasty little trick a while back (by PM) but got no answer - so assume it IS possible for a company owner to generate
as many yes votes on a motion
as they like.
PsychoticBoy: results were 0 no
as i voted no, i would be 1 at least
PsychoticBoy: so i am almost forced to announce the incorrect count of the votes on GLBSE motion 148
as I voted NO
Bugpowder: BTW - Thanks for the Bitcoins Direct recommendation, it was super easy, fast, cheaper than GOX and not
as worrysome
as OTC
assbot: Requesting data from GLBSE (might take a while, also might return fishy results
as it does not account for splits etc).
mircea_popescu: Im gauging interest in a GLBSE bearish fund. This fund would be run on the assumption that nearly everything currently on GLBSE will, in the long run, produce a negative ROI,
as almost all the assets are overpriced, insolvent, a scam or (indirect) passthroughs to (other passthroughs to) overpriced assets, insolvent assets or scams.
mircea_popescu: nope. there's income from private deposits ; margin opening and closing ; paper arrangements (such
as deposits of shares, non-btc settlements, etc)
sgornick: By itself it doesn't give too much info,
as without knowing withdrawals, cannot do a net infow calculation to see what is left. But it is useful to see a month-to-month trend.
mircea_popescu: The financial and banking industries are on high alert tonight
as a massive cyberattack continues, with potentially millions of customers of Bank of America, PNC and Wells Fargo finding themselves blocked from banking online.
assbot: Requesting data from GLBSE (might take a while, also might return fishy results
as it does not account for splits etc).
sgornick: Hm ... was the settle amount $12.35, 24 hour WAP from bitcoincharts? If so, something is up
as my balance is less than what that CALL expiration settlement should have yielded.
mircea_popescu: S.MPOE paid a total dividend of 2`142.90254453 BTC to 500`000`000 outstanding shares (
as per twitter)
BTC-Mining: I think I respect both of you more
as programmers than anything else.
jurov: usagi, if they don't vote, that counts
as yes or no?
kuzetsa: "shakespere is for dorks"
as they sad.
kuzetsa: non-zero number of rednecks whom were dumb
as a sack of hammers
kuzetsa: seing
as I had a hand in designing one about 10 years ago, yeah, I know what a datacenter burns.
Diablo-D3: which also means,
as a closed end fund, the current trading price range is not going to realistically reflect on the NAV anyhow
imsaguy2: very few assets have enough volume to adequately state the NAV
as typically used in GAAP

Bugpowder:
As long
as he can accomodate the volume
mircea_popescu: jcpham to be honest, bitcoin has little space or scope
as a consumer affair.
jcpham: i imagine
as the banks catch on it'll be harder and harder to move through them
assbot: Requesting data from GLBSE (might take a while, also might return fishy results

copumpkin: not sure she means it
as a compliment though :(
rdponticelli: You would run out of loudmouth certificates
as soon
as you start issuing them
mircea_popescu:
as in, the socialite is the party girl that sucks your cock.
mircea_popescu: ok, in practical terms, how about this : if any substantial change that might effect you, i put a ban on your ip so you can't connect. it'll be lifted just
as soon
as the issue is resolved ofcourse
jurov: my biggest worry is i could be never sure what to expect from mpex...
as last time you solved order cancellation problems with "we're busy, try again later"
Luceo: I'm interested in cryptoexchange
as a Litecoin exchange too, and possibly Microcash in the future
Luceo: and mpex will retain its place
as the serious exchange for volume traders
Luceo: I think cryptostocks will take glbse's place
as a zero-fee exchange for the casuals
mircea_popescu: Luceo btw that wasn't meeant
as a dig. i honestly thought so. are there any ?
dub: I will not comment much about my involvement with other scams, i had involvement in some projects prior to BDT,
as you must be aware, but if you are insinuating that i am a scammer you must have evidences to back up your claims, and if you ever want to end up in court, they must be really solid.
mircea_popescu: pot has never been
as big before it became a controlled substance
as it was after.
