Scrat: well
try playing in a
top guild with not much drama, DKP wasn't even needed
Scrat: black
temple, sunwell
topace: dammit.
TBC is hard
to
type
topace: then
they nerfed
the felguard :p
topace: my felguard was da shit, i remmeber getting jumped by a group of 4 ~same level as me when i was soloing some quests working
through BTC, and i pwned
them all
topace: i enjoyed
TBC
too, quit after
that
Scrat: then it all went downhill from
there
Scrat: pff probably
trash
top 100 :p
aknap3: I don't play games, period.
Total lifetime gaming is about 50 hours, counting card games
ThickAsThieves: i used
to pro raid, it started fun, but became
torture
aknap3: you mean
that's not been done yet?
ThickAsThieves: but
they are certainly selling something bitcoiners want
ThickAsThieves: I
think likely
the most successful bitcoin accepting business
mircea_popescu: i wonder how
they prevent
turning into a defacto btc
trade site
then
mircea_popescu: nah,
this is one of
those "website-and-advertising" made
to scam vcs
things.
jcpham: so
there's going
to be a holdover on
those profits
mircea_popescu: I want
to start one, Don't know how
to make one of
thsese sites
tho."
jcpham: i
think i read shareholders can buy usb miners at a cheaper price and pay 15 days late
ThickAsThieves: feels like bitcoin exists mostly unto itself
these days
mircea_popescu: SatoshiDICE cleared something on
the level of 15k so far
this year. On yearly-adjusted figures (since this year only means about 6 months) and accounting for variance
that would be about 25k yearly.
ozbot: What are
the Bitcoin market drivers ? pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
mircea_popescu: but otherwise, what bitcoin comes
to supplant is
the fed system
jcpham: payments space is going
to be
the uber struggle
mircea_popescu: in spite of all
the aggitation around payment processing, which is going remarkably repeatedly nowhere.,
mircea_popescu: nobody else can compete with
the edges and with
the PF.
mircea_popescu: contrary
to what people
think,
the one place where we completely own irl is gambling.
mircea_popescu: gambling has been so far
the one area where bitcoin brought actual innovation.
ThickAsThieves: it just exists, for people who want
to use it, or people
that want
to invest in
taking money from
them
mircea_popescu: actually IF just-dice eats s.dice's lunch
there will be very bad news for friedcat and co.
ozbot: I am not a nihilist. pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
mircea_popescu: any sufficiently delabree orgy is going
to contain a half backed, sodomistic, slow and unpleasant reimplementation of basic lisp
davout: mircea_popescu: do it
the rails way, don't repeat yourself x)
davout: mircea_popescu:
that was funny
the first
time
davout: mircea_popescu: give me some
trilema credits, i'll send you a postcard from paris
mircea_popescu: "You may pitch if asked
to pitch, you may
talk business by mutual agreement, but you may not under any circumstances cold hit on peopleiv -
they come
to
the conference
to relax and enjoy
themselves, not
to be intellectually brutalized. Please respect
that."
davout: jcpham: yep, wifi, a seat, and a good excuse
to
tell anyone
talking
to you
that it's not
the right moment
ThickAsThieves: and I harassed
the speakers about
their shitty marketing advice
davout: conventions have
the advantage of letting you work uninterrupted
jcpham: for whatever reason i was
there
ThickAsThieves: i went
to
this marketing convention/seminar
thing with a friend once, for his MSP company
jcpham: i would be
the odd one out
jcpham: i would sit in
the corner and watch
jcpham: i could go
to six flags
to
jcpham: and i doubt
there will be hot women
jcpham: unless
there are hot women around
mircea_popescu: you can safely make fun of any configuration in
the knowledge
there probably exists one
jcpham: so
there's a conference in atlanta
davout: mjr_1: when i have more
time on my hands i'll launch
the paris edition
kakobrekla: i do it in slovenia just
to kick bitstamp guys out
mjr_1: and seemed
to enjoy it
mjr_1: it was a
token amount, he wasn't carrying cash
pankkake: "Earlier
this year, you committed
to a minimum of 10% of
the network hashing" is
there
twice
mircea_popescu: but honestly i
think it's stabilizing. cp risk is becoming significant in most everyone's eyes,
mircea_popescu: in
that sense
total wagered went from about 4k
to about 6k
jcpham: everyone likes
to money just sitting
mircea_popescu: a, but people are playing. actually
the velocity is quite comparable,
ThickAsThieves: so it just a bunch of money sitting
there if no one is playing
ThickAsThieves: well
the kitty seems
to be growing faster
than
the profit
ThickAsThieves: does
the site have enough usage
traffic
to avoid dilution of
the investor base being a big deal
