ThickAsThieves: lemme check the rap blogs
BingoBoingo: Maybe Kanye eventually starts doing thing the right way and outsources handling Bitcointalk to a Kardashian

ThickAsThieves: i dont think kanye needs wot to prove anything to anyone

ThickAsThieves: well even if they know it's not his, the makers are still benefiting form his name
mircea_popescu: buyt as he is not in the wot, the fact of the matter is that as far as bitcoin is concerned, his identity belongs more to the "seven dorks" than to him himself
ThickAsThieves: "Edit: So far most everyone is suggesting we just process returns in $US, which is fine, except that really proves that BTC is not a currency, but a payment method. "
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves the wrangle is over how likely people are to mistake the coin for his
ThickAsThieves: if he were in the wot, what would have happened instead?
mircea_popescu: he instead chose to hire lawyers. well... gotta learn somehow who makes the rules and who one should obey.
mircea_popescu: but i did say either get in the wot or get raped a while back. had kayne listened then he wouldn't have the problem today.
mircea_popescu: kinda unfortunate that in this case fiat world's ignorance provides a white piece of bread for some assholes,

mircea_popescu: but the new york post talking of public fucking in these terms is disgraceful,
mircea_popescu: i mean, coming out of the sand niggers i could see complete barbarism of the sort.
mircea_popescu: all in the same sentence.
mircea_popescu: the best part is “It was gross,” said a hotel witness, and who walked over to catch an eyeful.

Duffer1: the only way that could happen is if their monarchs are real and ready
mircea_popescu: srsly, is the spike in hashpower bfl ?!
Duffer1: i guess i'm still new enough to be surprised

ThickAsThieves: what happens to all these ASICs in a year?
nubbins`: i was told it's because a lot of kittens are born in cardboard boxes, but our cat came from a farm and she loves 'em. i think it's just because there's a bit of give to the bottoms, and they can dig claws into 'em fairly easily
