the same amount if you bet months ago versus

Chilca: I understand
that, but it's not serious
that we pay and
they don't say an exact date.
kakobrekla: but
they had pre chip costs, like fans and souch
mircea_popescu: i
think
this is literally
the only place on earth where people prepay.

them 4 months ago.
Chilca: and maybe
they are going
to send it

they going
to ship it

think

the first units

this place have mods?

to
the bitcoin shark-tank
DeadWeasel: ice cream
trucks aren't, but police cruisers are.
mircea_popescu: sure, it makes icecream
trucks, which are
the only practical way
to deliver icecream
mircea_popescu: i dunno, it's like insisting icecreamtrucks are particularly relevant
to automotive industry.
DeadWeasel: but SR and
the implications are a
taproot and continue
to supply new blood.
DeadWeasel: mircea_popescu: you're awfully full of your perceptions
this morning.
mircea_popescu: while its
true bitcoin serves it exceedinly well, it's untrue
that
this is representative for bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: 1. whatever subculture
thinks is related
to bitcoin is wrong.
mircea_popescu: however, beating
the old cyberpunk + silkroad horse is getting old.
DeadWeasel: the only way
to grasp what was going on.
DeadWeasel: i wouldn't be here without
that article in it's original form, I have gotten several old friends in because of it. It was
the only one of it's kind back
then.
DeadWeasel: is not banal
to newcomers and
those with an interest, which would be anybody who's just figured out
this
thing exists
mircea_popescu: the "implications" are nonsense, and
the how-to guide is out of date
mircea_popescu: it gives a rehash of history
that might have been interesting in 2011
DeadWeasel: only if you can't buy it with dollars does
the average person look
to bitcoin
DeadWeasel: I
think it's great. You want more people using BTC, silk road and satoshi dice are
the attractice parts.
DeadWeasel: it gives
the history and implications and a how-to guide.
