jurov: there are tupperware containers with cash mentioned earlier
mircea_popescu: The trading desk with computers and monitors was in the main bedroom, which was in rontus' command. I don't remember if we traded any, though.
mircea_popescu: lmao what the fucking hell
mircea_popescu: "We had the study of the hotel room dedicated to our dealing desk, which included precision scales, and storage containers for all kinds of valuables. EUR 50 (and below) notes will be weighted as well as the gold and silver, 100-500 notes are counted."
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the bulk of the U.S. economy?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that one ever worked in practice ?

mircea_popescu: also : he deleted his post going "here is proof that at least 3 women attended" ?!
asciilifeform: truffles: I don't believe the man exists as described
mircea_popescu: why does everyone think he;'s trying to spoof me ?
truff1es: sounds like you want to stalk him
asciilifeform: to my untrained eye, he seems like a comedian trying to spoof MP
jurov: asciilifeform, it's not whether it is true, it's the epic ridiculousness of all and every detail
asciilifeform: and has anyone checked the EXIF strings in his photos for interesting tidbits?
asciilifeform: can somebody enlighten me re: what's interesting about the rpietila clown? is there proof that even one of the things he's claimed is true?
mircea_popescu: well then go for maria too

mircea_popescu: jurov the part where he goes "I purposely omitted people not in this forum from the list." but then invites me is pretty cool.
jurov: oh, and i forgot... shall we conspire to put ganjix on hisinvite list somehow?
mjr___: lol, who is this guy?
jurov: yes. this should be teached in personal finance classes
kakobrekla: (most of the staff, taxi, etc.), I can adjust the burn rate in quick order if need be. I plan on spending at this rate until midnight (8.5 more hours), and keep the room till noon, tomorrow. After that my organisation will be readjusted at about $25 per hour (about 200mBTC).
ThickAsThieves: which doesnt seem to be in the options
ThickAsThieves: i thought i had it all in my settings already, but now i also need to know how to change my pass
kakobrekla: I have currently increased the size of my organisation, and reserved some prime resources (such as the most expensive by far hotel suite in Finland) for my exclusive use. My burn rate is currently about $200,000 per month if I continue at this level. It may sound like much, but measured hourly, it is a more understandable $278 (about 2,000mBTC). Since most of the resources are contracted at a daily rate (such as the hotel) or even hourly (
jurov: yes, but i don't see anything about this burn rate theory
ThickAsThieves: never had this ident problem before, if there's someone that can pm me to help set up mu mIRC properly, it'd be appreciated
jurov: I was operating at a peak $200k per month burnrate at that moment, so just out of curiosity I calculated, how large a stash of bitcoins would be needed, to keep up such a spending permanently.
jurov: whatever, just read it wohle carefully. seems everyone finds some different kind of utter ridiculousness there

mircea_popescu: e product to 75,000 and then to 50,000 units (for a more targeted customer base). Birchbox only wanted to pay for a purchase order of 400 units after receiving 50,000 units for free.
mircea_popescu: “Birchbox requested 300,000 units of a product for free; in return, they said that could offer a conservative purchase order of 400 units for that product if it was received well by their sampling audience.” Birchbox also requested a special sample size, which Ms. Chan would need to create, that would yield at least 3 uses of the product. After Ms. Chan negotiated with them, they lowered the amount of requested fre
