The20YearIRCloud: The refinance is prime + 2% as a commercial mortgage to our LLC, which is a pretty decent rate. The big benefit compared to just going out and refinancing all the properties at once is that the investors essentially won'
t see any decreases in the small dividends that they're getting now, only growth.
The20YearIRCloud: None do, however in this case I had a investor complain because I wasn'
t addressing the concerns from those individuals
peterl: I don'
t think the RENT forum complaints come from investors
The20YearIRCloud: mircea_popescu: that I haven'
t been responding recently to all the accusations against myself and or the choices I've made
The20YearIRCloud: Pretty good, no complaints, everyone was excited about the news, not happy about the complaint or two I got on the forum afterwards, but then I can'
t please everyone it seems
mircea_popescu: dignork you now know reason #48768459 my write-on-tits thing is valuable. don'
t tell asciilifeform :)))
mircea_popescu: "how you doing ? " "busy" "so come over" "oh baby i can'
t, gotta drop off the kid to ballet class" "so drop her off to her ballet class and come over for a ballet class of your own" "mmmmmmm okay"
mike_c: you can'
t tell me to shaddup. i do what i want!
gribble: Error: Something in there wasn'
t a valid number.
mircea_popescu: he didn'
t mean for him to do it himself, he meant for me to do it. da fuck are they going to do, be very butthurt ?
mircea_popescu: <ben_vulpes> "In an ideal world, Kim Kardashian would have spent her life getting sport-fucked anonymously by hip-hop stars in some Bel Air mansion, ran a salon, and either died of a coke overdose or Botox poisoning." << this "ideal" world is actually the world. i dunno what this new shit the kids got going post 2000 is supposed to be, but it ain';
t a world in *any* sense
ben_vulpes: *sigh* okay apache ain'
t gon configure itself
ben_vulpes: that's what all the ETFs are about as well, aren'
t they.
mike_c: but germany (or other powerful entity) wouldn'
t get their bitcoin from coinbase, so this scam doesn'
t work for BTC.
mircea_popescu: random person with a coinbase wallet doesn'
t have all the other wires tied on germany has.
mike_c: yeah. like right now germany is mad about the US printing gold, but can'
t do much about it.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, they can'
t really print b itcoin unless someone lets them.
mike_c: bitcoin deposits? coinbase doesn'
t hold fiat. not sure a bank would know what to do with them.
justusranvier: I don'
t either, actually. But they are very interested in being bought out. Suppose the company gets purchased by a bank. What will the new owners be interested in doing with that huge pile of customer deposits?
mike_c: justusranvier: i don'
t believe coinbase has a vested interest in large scale price manipulation. investor-mania would be great for their customer acquisition.
justusranvier: mike_c: What if Coinbase doesn'
t actually have all the Bitcoins their customers believe they have. They take in a great deal of USD, but how do we know they aren'
t operating on a fractional reserve? Until people stop leaving their coins in third-party custody, those kinds of price manipulation games are inevietable.
mike_c: i have a gut feel about why you are right, but I'd love to hear you expound on it a bit. If nefarious forces are shoveling money at BTC to suppress price, why will this fail? bitcoin is currently small. you think they just won'
t be able to keep it up and eventually price will explode?
justusranvier: Of course they are in reality, but the "official unemployment rate" doesn'
t include them.
mircea_popescu: this isn'
t chomage, it's unemployment. puritan concept.
mircea_popescu: the beauty of this being that they aren'
t going to succeed, but letting them try is so god damned productive and enriching.
pete_dushenski: "undercapitalization" in economies with jubilees allowed them to last a century or ten rather than this fizz bang pop nao it's here now it isn'
t stuff
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: well i got a condition where i can'
t differentiate canadian settlements. << maybe we shouldn'
t have colour-coded them...
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes meh green/browns << so mp wasn'
t kidding! i never know sometimes...
ThickAsThieves: but how many places to go that won'
t impost a state on you?
ThickAsThieves: i'm also unclear as to why a 'state' (in whatever adapted form) can'
t exist with bitcoin around
punkman1: and they'll love it because they didn'
t even have $100 to begin with
BigBitz: "guys, guys, don'
t worry. We're hacked. We've got insurance"
fluffypony: they won'
t pay anything if the loss is your fault
ben_vulpes: "sorry, you can'
t log to a bucket in a different region"
ben_vulpes: if your shit can'
t pay for a server beefy enough to serve itself and its assets get the fuck right out of my face
ben_vulpes: once again i find myself confronted with stupid shit that shouldn'
t be a problem if the industry hadn'
t standardized on virtualized machines too small to host and serve their own images
mircea_popescu: "A woman's test is material. A man's test is a woman...if a man could fuck in a cardboard box, he wouldn'
t buy a house." - Rabbi Dave Chappelle.

Given the power law distribution of wealth at all times such a proposal is perennially popular to those ignorant of history. Yet, if you do this every period, capital isn'
t owned by any individual, and so would be completely mismanaged
cazalla: that's a bet i wouldn'
t want to win
mircea_popescu: don'
t worry too much, just be sensible and that'll be good enough.
gernika: I knew !up wouldn'
t work without a higher rating, but wanted to see what would happen anyway.
ben_vulpes: lol gernika knows enough to try to !up but not that it doesn'
t work without ratings
mircea_popescu: listen, just because you said works at some indian working in a call center for 1.5 an hour doesn'
t mean you've done something.
zillabtc: yes I have told them what's involved, otherwise I wouldn'
t be wating my time with them and I'd be processing via interac
mircea_popescu: "i want to cut a hole in a woman's belly and stick my penis into it". "you won'
t be able to find a woman that'll stand for that, it kills them" "no i found an exchange student that doesn'
t speak english but said she'll do it" "did you actually tell her what's involved ?" "no, not yet."
zillabtc: it's in a super early phase so please don'
t judge too much
zillabtc: we haven'
t launched yet and I thought it would be good to meet the trading community

Vexual: china first "banned" it when the police casught some thft and realisied they couldn'

Namworld: It's 5am, woke up at 4am, couldn'
t sleep. I tried to move my regular sleeping schedule of ~4-12 am to 10pm-6pm in two day. I ended up only sleeping 5 hours per night.
Vexual: i can'
t be bothered reading that, but does the author sell the lot for bc?
mircea_popescu: i can see it. i can'
t see why anyone'd fall for it given an option.
mircea_popescu: dignork i mean i get it, exploitative married bitch figures she's still the hot shit, long after you sent her off. and so she keeps calling, "honey, i know you love me, why don'
t you let those three nineteen year old olympic gymnasts be and come scratch the hairs on my fat belly".
dignork: nope, it's bad, but actually something like greenaddress doesn'
t have to be that way, with some legal trickery, if amounts are small enough it can dodge KYC
gribble: mike_c was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 2 days, 7 hours, 26 minutes, and 41 seconds ago: <mike_c> wasn'
t bolivia the one that banned bitcoin?
kuzetsa: sure, it was a typo, but pluralization for a single person's genitalia doesn'
t make sense anyway
assbot: You can'
t drive around with a Dogecoin sticker on your car and not be a nice person. : dogecoin
mircea_popescu: (if he had any sense, the stuff wouldn'

decimation: well, that's the problem with the bezzle, it doesn'
t pay much to have skills, only friends
decimation: nah lawyering is much worse, most don'
t even make $50k
ben_vulpes: because there was at one point, but now there isn'
t. because of the transition from text-based wallets to bdb wallets? no idea, but it looks, smells, and quacks like a regression.
dignork: asciilifeform: didn'
t have a chance to verify tbh, also blinking led would be more visible than obsure message in /var/log
moiety: ThickAsThieves: i can'
t see many cats doing it
gribble: Hollywood was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 49 weeks, 0 days, 20 hours, 27 minutes, and 53 seconds ago: <Hollywood> I only am because it is the top post on the forum, but I don'
t want to read it and waste brain cells
cazalla: you don'
t see ski slope titties either, saw a lot of them in vintage porn circa 30's 40's 50's
cazalla: ooh, nice pointy ones, don'
t see them much anymore
mircea_popescu: it's one thing to leave golden age new york because you can'
t afford the rent
BingoBoingo: But many of the German migrants weren'
t doing so out of poverty, but of poverty of opportunity and the perception of the opportunity to pretend to be the gentry they could not back home
decimation: see the anglo elite above for why that didn'
t happen...
decimation: as the last pscyhiatrist might say, he might be happy if he wasn'
t so invested in being unhappy
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> gedankenexperiment. imagine if it were not possible to starve to death - folks who can'
t find any food would, say, photosynthetize (this is not geometrically/thermodynamically possible in life, but imagine for a moment.) what would the people who have never, or almost never, eaten - write on the subject? << Reddit aspires to buy monitors with sufficient brightness to enable photosynthesis, gets scammed on kickstart
