ThickAsThieves: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CICv6xV-lSE#t=29
jurov: isn't it homeland?
mike_c: davout: well, what i mean is the US doesn't have a word that they use like russia uses motherland
davout: i mean you're saying english doesn't have a word for X, where X is a word, that doesn't sound like you just made it up
davout: that's like saying the french don't have a word for entrepreneur
mike_c: US doesn't have a word for motherland though.
thestringpuller: i don't want to turn into a cranky old man this soon like MP
Naphex: nah i'm just oldschool :D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdN6hgxAlyk#t=29
ThickAsThieves: bitcoin can't rap
bounce: what's medium.com on about this time? don't have a tablet so I'm too square to access their hipsteriffic site.
fluffypony: Naphex: BIPs don't need much in way of documentation
mike_c: if your blog posts don't make people mad you end up with no comments.
mike_c: fluffypony: leave it as is, and tell TaT to comment on it if he doesn't like it
Apocalyptic: fluffypony, don't pull it just because TAT is being a coinbase shill
mike_c: and basically fully expect someday my balance on CB won't be there.
fluffypony: I don't have a better one, but that's not apt enough
fluffypony: mike_c: I can't agree with that analogy
fluffypony: mike_c: well, isn't part of the entire point of Bitcoin that "he who holds the keys holds the coins"? in other words, users should be encouraged to use Bitcoin in that fashion, anything else (webwallets) deviates from that core principle
mike_c: yes, i think i'm following, but who cares if a user <-> coinbase <-> coinbase merchant transaction doesn't scream bitcoin?
mike_c: 04:50:57 mircea_popescu:your blog got 0 comments the past month. << just because your blog doesn't get comments doesn't mean it sucks.
bounce: kinda interesting. though I probably wouldn't go through the trouble even if I had access to (or need for) those things
BigBitz: I wouldn't be upset to get a free pair.
fluffypony: I don't think I would've paid cash for them
BigBitz: Although isn't it Carlye Group and HTC which own most of Beats now-a-days?
fluffypony: Naphex: I'm talking more about stuff like the iPad - it wasn't even a particularly novel idea, it was just so well executed that every major exec on the planet seems to have switched 80% of their tasks to their iPad instead of their laptop
pankkake: it didn't work at all, but they hyped the ipad before that, hoping it would
pankkake: how many bought an iThing and don't even use it?
fluffypony: bounce: yeah he seems to be good at managing the company and keeping it profitable and smooth, but he doesn't seem to have the requisite insight and vision
fluffypony: so I don't mind offering constructive criticism where I can
pankkake: I lasted in the forums because there wasn't much else I could do of my days
fluffypony: I actually don't know how mpoe-pr/hanbot lasted as long as she did without quitting, I wouldn't have lasted more than a month
fluffypony: and whatever hasn't decomposed would still be more than investing in BitcoinBourse stocks
fluffypony: Naphex: with that smile I wouldn't trust him further than I could throw him
pankkake: oh it's CryptoVest which does… something. I haven't figured out yet
pankkake: anyway, the choice isn't that great in retail
pankkake: though once I tried to save a few euros and ordered from multiple retailers, wasn't worth it
mircea_popescu: pankkake because he's assburgers and can't drive 50 miles to fucking vienna to buy the stuff off the shelf
Naphex: doesn't look like gribble parses google calc
mircea_popescu: isn't the usd like 3.20 or so ?
mircea_popescu: muisti = cocksuckers in romanian. a very economic language, needs fewer letters for the concept. also reflective of the fact that romanian women are on average better trained & moar experienced with it so it doesn't take as long.
Naphex: and they still didn't register the payment sent 3 days ago!:(
mircea_popescu: it wasn't a confrontation : we stayed the fuck away from them, so there was no need for them to beat our living daylights out.
fluffypony: Naphex: I couldn't make it through that video
pankkake: !t m f.mpif
pankkake: !t m s.mpif
pankkake: !t m mpif
fluffypony: Naphex: and you didn't have any 300 000 EUR transactions in your order book!
mircea_popescu: enthusiasm is good, don't get me wrong, but you're not there yet.
mircea_popescu: i don't know you, why would i give you bitcoin ?
artifexd: I imagine that there is a database with a table of bets and a table of, uh, bets. Both tables can't be called bets.
decimation: http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/biz/archives/2014/04/26/2003588896/1 I didn't see this linked here yet. $324 million for 64k people = $5k before lawyer's cut
decimation: http://lionoftheblogosphere.wordpress.com/2014/04/30/robots-and-restaurants/ When rich people do go out to eat, they will not want to be served by robots, so high-end restaurants will still have human waitstaff. As I?ve pointed out before, many people who aren?t born rich will only be able to make money if they have the ability to entertain the rich or make them feel good about themselves.
TheNewDeal: didn't it start with like 50?
thestringpuller: either that or you don't do repeats often or ever :P
thestringpuller: i just haven't been reading trilema long enough yet
BingoBoingo: Just because there is one building in town that will kill you for sure if you jump from it doesn't mean jumping from the other ones is an idea worth endorsing.
moiety: this is true. it mimics how the body takes to other things. this doesn't translate well in me. tramadol is one of things people either do really well or really badly on.
BingoBoingo: Eh, NSAIDs weren't doing anything and this does something. They seem to scarcely prescribe much else anymore.
moiety: i don't take well on tramadol at all
mircea_popescu: doesn't sound like so much fun
artifexd: I didn't mean to imply that it was. It is just a source of useless (but interesting to me) information. That's it. I didn't mean anything deep or important. Just a "hey, there's this thing that you may, or may not, find interesting".
pankkake: and the assmarket hasn't seen much action even after the news coverage
pankkake: the guy won't add things like bieber
jurov: i don;t have access to tor atm, someone else can check... but it's fun to guess, no?
mircea_popescu: notrly, but they prolly don't know what words mean so ok
jurov: i actually don't know myself
fluffypony: apparently they didn't appreciate my wit.
fluffypony: apparently I wasn't circlejerky enough
mircea_popescu: don't take it so hard : maybe anyone whose head works must be me.
mike_c: http://jsonlint.com/ didn't complain
fluffypony: it seems to be the knee-jerk reaction when someone says something you don't agree with on the securities sub-foru
davout: hory shet http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=xCghuT0Cx7E#t=249
mircea_popescu: wasn't it trading 250s ?
mircea_popescu: TomServo i don't have that many ideas, i just reuse a few.
davout: a minimum trade amount to hide the fact their engine still can't count, solid hack for sure
mircea_popescu: except... joe blow politician prolly can't get in there anyway
mircea_popescu: fluffypony https://bitcointa.lk/threads/pre-ipo-symmetric-step-trading.292080/page-4#post-6318694 make that 2011 to really bother him. i don't think ANYONE from 2011 or prior isn't in the wot tbh.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the infantile worldview. there is no "my house" as far as teenagers go, just the place other people pay the mortgage on << i still think we're dealing with 'poverty of the spirit, not the flesh.' people fall for the 'cloud' crapola out of... sloth. don't wanna buy a disk, i'll use this stranger's. don't wanna find toilet, i'll shit where i stand. etc
mircea_popescu: i don't believe in shitting on the character set.
pankkake: I don't even do drugs
BingoBoingo: On that note I'll be headed back to the doctor soon. If I don't reappear within a few hours start praying for my testicles.
pankkake: didn't even look up what's coming for EU elections
pankkake: I don't you will be able to vote for them
benkay: i ain't your whore.
mircea_popescu: pankkake yeah because of this meta- and pretense bs. they can't make a whore party, they gotta make a pretend-whore sorta-like party except stupid.
mircea_popescu: so in this twiotter discussion about whores and politicians, it occured to me : wouldn't iot be great if some state, like say nevada, limited political office to whores only for a decade ?
fluffypony: so I think my replies weren't logged
mircea_popescu: fluffypony btw are you ignoring my q re vertcoin or just didn't see it ?
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell thickasthieves http://trilema.com/2014/what-happens-when-you-add-a-drop-of-sewage-to-a-bottle-of-fine-wine/#comment-99670 see, why can't you be more like her!
mircea_popescu: <mike_c> i don't keep up much on havelol, just found out they've been running in the red the last few months! << did they publish this ?
mircea_popescu: <Apocalyptic> <benkay> but i wouldn't build a bridge out of Al. // some people did << duraluminum. not a bad choice, esp if your bridge is to submerge.
mircea_popescu: Mircea Popescu You know, plenty of corpses have been keeping very strict diets, doesn't seem to have improved their health.
mircea_popescu: Scott Skyrm If 5 years of near 0% interest rates isn't sufficiently helping the housing market, then maybe the problem lies elsewhere
mike_c: t-bonds??
mircea_popescu: <Apocalyptic> <LadyRainicorn> And everything insightful I write lingers with like 5 upvotes. << truely summed up. especially the part where some random self-absorbed nobody is whining about how the world isn't more impressed with them
mod6: ok merged, but will leave in the incubator until there is at least 1 trade so can ensure that I didn't break normal functionallity.
benkay: %t
mike_c: i don't see any reason that would turn around.
mike_c: i don't keep up much on havelol, just found out they've been running in the red the last few months!
benkay: %t
