kakobrekla: yeah you need
to make n posts and wait n
time
thestringpuller: hey do we need
to do something special for new accounts
to post on
the forums?
mircea_popescu: two weeks later,
tux is wanted by every agency in
teh us.
mircea_popescu: FabianB_
tis a joke.
tux isn't on mpex "because illegal"
jurov: no he discovered how illegal he is right *after*
the conf
jurov: he's afraid
to end up like nefario
kakobrekla: is he afraid
to go out of his japan now
mircea_popescu: ever seen retarded kids in impoverished countries
taking
their pic against some above average parked car
that happened in
their way ?
that, in a word, is bitcoin conference organising.
mircea_popescu: this irrespective of some kid in
the
train station/lobby distributing leaflets.
jborkl: oh wait- someone already did
that
mircea_popescu: people will go
to london just like people will be drinking in
the bar
mircea_popescu: to put it
this way : london is london just like
the corner bar is
the corner bar.
jurov: 600hp bike is
the way
to go
mircea_popescu: the idea is wtf is wrong with people,
they don't have a business but imagine organising conferences is
the solution,
they don't have a clue (as
to
the history, for instance) but
they imagine being loud is
the solution etc
jurov: (lol maybe
that's why scammers love
to present on conferences)
jurov: and i didn't seemed as scammer
to
them :D
jurov: because i know few coinbr users
that started using it cuz
they met me
jurov: on one side i know it will be 99% bs. but also it seems
to me i will have
to solve my difficulties and occassionally show.
mircea_popescu: is
this
the
thing which was "the first london conference" ?
jurov: this london
thing seems more srs
to me
jurov: or do you predict erik will end up with broke rep
too?
jurov: the reputation has no causal relationship with conference attendance (other
that
that shady
types like
to show up)
mircea_popescu: but
the people worth
the mention in
this world don't have
the problem of how
to buy shoes.
mircea_popescu: i mean sure, if you're a welfare bum like
taaki broken reputation might not mean anything when a few k's are on
the
table. i get it.
mircea_popescu: you get
to hang out on
the edges and steam, like kenna, like strateman
mircea_popescu: because
then you end up with a broken reputation and
that's
the end of you.
Diablo-D3: if it works for
them and brings in
the money
mircea_popescu: since
the names keep changing it stands
to reason
that
the path
to success is outside
the realm of puffery.
mircea_popescu: huff artists start big deal whatever,
the irrelevant press
trumpets what a big deal it is
mircea_popescu: for
the past ~2 years
this pattern has been repeating itself about with
the frequency of
the seasons
Namworld: It appear
this shooting didn't do
too much damage...
Namworld: Use google
translate...
they have so many different IPs...
furuknap: I wouldn't know, I only used it once. It's a common
trick
to get past cookie based
trials,
though, so I'm surprised if it doesn't work with you.
mircea_popescu: furuknap you know proxies only work if somebody hasn't already used
them up
wences: cookies are enabled, but I cleared
the history
wences: I cleared my cookes and lost my credits on
Trilema
mircea_popescu: TheSeven i know, my bad ;/ 4char isn't good enough
to
tab who knew.
mircea_popescu: btc went from y
to z address
thus
therefore owner of y owns z
too.
furuknap: Hah,
the kid sold off his last PAJKA. I bet
that hurt more
than he'd like
to admit.
furuknap: I've spent so much
time
there you wouldn't know...
truff1es: the supreme court was a good idea
too at some point
jurov: and he second judge of
the
three agreed
too, pissing mp off
jurov: judge jcpham
thought mp was pushing
the case
to rota without
trying enough
to settle otherwise and judged
thus
truff1es: i wouldnt use
the word fair with
those ppl at m-poe et al
jurov: kinda. but actually
the judgment was fair except for how 5btc fee was divided
jurov: yes. next day s/he shaved and got
these red clothes
furuknap: "In
the middle with
the beard is MPOE-PR.". rly?
jurov: i just linked s.mg announcement
to local coworker/hacker community.. I hope
the
trilema article is not
too dense for
the kids
wences: Conspiracy
theories are
the resource of
the lame;
they do not demand research,
thought or proof and you can "prove" anything with
them
mircea_popescu: and mind youi, i just mean
the research angle, not doing anything useful, just educating oneself.
mircea_popescu: figuring out wtf ssws are and how
they're likely
to work is a good 2nd step
jurov: what is
there
to research about s.mg? is something alredy in development?
to be delivered in 2 weeks?
mircea_popescu: actually,
the best way one could use his bitcoin
time is researching my concoctions.
jurov: well, no wonder if you place in in misspelled country
that will not exist for next 480 years after
the fact
furuknap: Geez, some people are never satisfied with random useless facts of
the day.
furuknap: And now
that I look it up, it was early 1500, not late.
furuknap: Yeah, and stricly speaking,
the name is now Jáchymov, not Joachims valley, but let's not be pedantic, shall we?
jurov: it was Bohemian land of Holy Roman Empire by
that
time
jurov: okay, but such
thing did not exist
then, either
jurov: furuknap: i suspect something misspelled
there
furuknap: The name dollar derives from
Thaler, which means valley, and comes from
the fact
that
the first
thalers were made in Joachimsthal (Joachim's valley) i
the Checz republic back in
the late 1500s.
furuknap: Interesting factoid of
the day.The $-sign is largely believed
to be a merger between P and s
that initially stood for Pounds (as in British pounds).
jurov: but
thanks anyway :D
jurov: oh, you forgot
to mention "they're all scammers and cheats..."
there
furuknap: Not sure why I forgot
to moedrate
the comment. I'll get it out now.
furuknap: Nah, I hate
those guys,
they're all scammers and cheats
trying
to run off withe veryones money!
furuknap: mp, I'd get in with at least a few BTC, but I'll have
to wait for
the PTs :-) I don't really have
time
to research
the asset either, sadly.
mircea_popescu: mkay,
that was
the 2nd batch. last one monday, about 18mn shares left out of
the 100mn max.
