ClivePalmer: laid
the bitch out, put it in her mouth, nutted on a
towel and passed out.
ThickAsThieves: thestringpuller i get
the impression you hit your head sometime recently
ThickAsThieves: "Last week,
the company posted a Bitcoin explainer
to one of its blogs, and it recently added a new “Virtual Currencies” section
to its online marketplace, not
too far down
the page from “Hobo Nickels.” Hours after we asked eBay about it,
the section was removed, and when we asked Ramirez
to explain why, she said she’d look into it and
then stopped answering our messages."
kakobrekla: dunno i havent read it
through just commenting on
the
title
kakobrekla: i
thought
the fed and ecb needs saving

ClivePalmer: i like you, you have balls, but don't you ever
try and fuck me you little monkey
benkay: hm, now
that's a business model.
benkay: also i'm not entirely interested in
that kind of criminality
dub: its
the rare stuff
that gets expensive
dub: benkay:
the free content is easy
dub: there was
that camsite
too
benkay: here's a bizarre
thing which makes me shy away from porn businesses
dub: is
there much bitporn around?
pankkake: you have some free views but after
that you have
to pay
pankkake: that's
the
trilema business model :p
benkay: so
that you know how long a given session is, and can experiment with
the account-drain rate
benkay: and optimize
the rate at which everyone watches
benkay: but just a little, right? just a
trickle of btc
benkay: show
them great content for free,
then dial down
the good stuff and give 'em
the cheap content everyone else has and charge for
the other stuff
pankkake: genius idea. but nothing
that really interested me in it
benkay: the other approach is
to do something like
that but really optimize
the viewing and funding experience
pankkake: I'm not convinced.
there's a lot of competition
benkay: But gosh it does make one sound like an idiot when discussing where
the price of bitcoin's are going
to be at.
benkay: well, pankkake, rules are for
the obedience of fools and
the guidance of wise men
benkay: failure
to understand power dynamics chiefly among
them
that
things far away are frequently not under your control: check
benkay: failure
to contextualize resource discovery in context of past boom/bust cycles, particularly in africa: check
benkay: "But just as importantly
the aquifer is replenished from distant mountains. So it should never run dry, assuming it is managed properly."
pankkake: "the Kenyan government will also reveal how
they plan
to use
the resource for
the good of
the country"
that part remains
to be seen
benkay: Namworld:
that is indeed
the joke.
benkay: who are
they ambiguous with?
dub: they
took
the 'create ambigutiy with existing org' scamming 101 play
to
the next level
pankkake: funny how
the euro used
to be about 1:1 with
the dollar
benkay: they're nominally less awful
than dollars, pankkake
dub: you don't like your euros
then?
pankkake: looks like kraken started
trading EURs. but I still can't find a way
to give
them mine
benkay: but i have a choreographer already
tyvm
benkay: dance party
time i'll read it later
pankkake: I am fairly up
to date with good security practices, but never had been under
that kind of pressure
benkay: aren't you still n! on
the wordlist length?
pankkake: hmm it's one of my fears of dealing with bitcoins, getting
the
target of hackers
benkay: i dunno man. you can still crack
those. permutations of number of english words is far fewer
than permutations of characters.
benkay: leetspeek generators are a
thing
benkay: but you see
there's
that next leve RIGHT
THE FUCK
THERE.
benkay: "there's always another level. just be content knowing
that you are still better off
than most who have ever lived"
dub: l33tpa55br0
thesecret etc
dub: im auditing a wholesale visp
type
thingy, looking at LNS passwords chosen by downstream ISPen.. for FUCKS SAKE
dub: man
the NSA has it so easy
pankkake: mircea_popescu: I
thought you were refering
to
the IM client, but I don't understand
the rest
benkay: nobody will buy shares if html has
tables
mircea_popescu: Built it in 3 weeks while home from work staying up
to 4 am most nights.
mircea_popescu: -Emails come
through with HTML, since an SMTP mail server was not hooked up
to it.
dub: comments made
to
the effect of either contracting some local firm at large expense or getting literally hundreds of concepts for free an dpaying peanuts
to
the one you like
pankkake: I'm going
to feel bad at some point

pankkake: so you end up with shitty work in
the end
pankkake: benkay: exactly. it's easy
to estimate css, it's not for development
pankkake: hmm I've seen good
things from CSS guys
pankkake: I know people who paid for rentacoder coders;
the result was bad
dub: I know someone
that uses it for design work,
they seem happy
mircea_popescu: i imagine i'm one of
ten
thousand peiople
that noticed how fucking retarded
they are.
pankkake: while
those sites are mostly shit jobs and shit people, I know
that when I work in a legit company, I will only see half of it
mircea_popescu: never quite bothered
to sit down and actually do it, but
they suck so bad it's indescribable.
mircea_popescu: pankkake i have been sorta intending
to destroy freelancer for five or so years
pankkake: well
there are some but
they are unusable
pankkake: I wonder why
there's not freelancer for bitcoin yet
mircea_popescu: bitcointalk being easier
to use
than freelancer.com or some shit
pankkake: maybe it's one of
those who
think ideas are worth more
than doing
the stuff
mircea_popescu: i don't
think it has yet happened
that anyone signed a nda for some random dork with no
track record and no money.
toffoo: but at least it appears
they have a somewhat real looking dice site now
toffoo: yup, something like
that
mircea_popescu: i
thought it was meanwhile verified
that
the guy essentially sent himself like 5k btc or w/e
toffoo: but apparently whoever's behind
this isn't exactly lacking balls
toffoo: given how
this was just unknown guy asking for money sent
to address x
