to
try again in a few minutes siort of
thing
davout: pankkake: let's discuss a couple
targets, i needed a new door anyway

their website, i realize
they sell
this obscure ink remover we've been
trying
to
track down for weeks

the argentinean crises
mircea_popescu: even accounting for
the 300% obamainflation,

the record,
the 9/11 "operation" cost something like 20k if memory serves.

Threat

Vexual: the navy and
the doe are on
the patent, but it mainly mentions flat panel
tvs as an application, no actual mention of fel
mircea_popescu: i
thought folding mostly has
to do with protein configurations
Vexual: the patenet from stanford where pando labvs is,
they would have modeled many electron configs on a system such as
that
nubbins`: afaik goldstar was
the only other company
to actually
take up
the offer
nubbins`: yeah, i believe panasonic licensed

nubbins`: i
think goldstar, which ended up being swallowed up into
the G of LG, made a 3do system at one point
nubbins`: now
there's a name from
the past
ozbot: Obama, getting crushed in
the marketplace pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.

the grounds
that reality moves way fucking fast and has for a long
time

they should be ipoing
that shit
mircea_popescu: sooo, six weeks in, obama's
thing has managed 50k signups
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Not
that I'm aware of yet. From what I understand folding proteins is sort of
the raw brute force work

that
the forumulation is simple.
Vexual: all of
them with
their cousins id
that doesnt say
tradefortress
ThickAsThieves: well maybe ASICMINER gets into
that
