mod6: upwards and onwards
though!
mjr_: my point is
that for february
mjr_: they can't change
that now
mircea_popescu: yes, for
the current month. but past months are water under
the bridge far as you're concerned
mjr_: so my
tiny fraction of
that revenue is already mine in dividends
mjr_: but
they already bet and
that is already his revenue
mircea_popescu: well,
there's
this
theory
that people will bet less if btc are worth more.
mjr_: also...how can people retroactively go back and make
their bets smaller because bitcoins are worth more now?
mjr_: so i am up in
total by
the combination of
the
two
mjr_: but
that position is up...i got
the bitcoins on average for 21.22 so
that position is up
Bugpowder: It was up
to 4x
till last night's bounce :(
mjr_: yeah, if only i had gotten in
then

mjr_: but still...these returns are great and
that's before i have ever even received dividends
mjr_: i'm not saying
there is NO correlation
mjr_: so my
total gain when measured in dollars is a combo of
the
two effects
mjr_: yes, but you get forward contracts or options
to guarantee and hedge
mjr_: i'm like OH
that is why every single stock on NYSE moves
the same direction at
the same
time
mjr_: "if
the price of bitcoins doubles,
the price of S.DICE halves"
mod6: yeah,
this stuff is pretty far beyond most people who use
the internet on a daily basis.
mjr_: i mean, so dumb
though
mod6: just hang on irc
then, less hassle?
mircea_popescu: then a while back i referred
to someone by her byname instead of
their handle
mod6: he actually one a 10 BTC bet on over 26 USD by Noon EST
today.
mircea_popescu: who's
that forum kid
that keeps reporting on like, what pirate did in his hood
imsaguy: haha, I broke a lot of cherries back in
the day
mod6: so for
that, I
thank you :)
mod6: dude, I
think
that maybe you were
the first person
that sold me BTC.
imsaguy: enjoy
the rest of your day/evening.
imsaguy: ok, its
time
to go stick my head in a meat grinder.
imsaguy: don't even
try
to fool yourself :p
imsaguy: if not
that, it'd be something else.
imsaguy: gotta have something
to bitch about
imsaguy: it wouldn't be for
too long
that we'd be 'stuck'
mircea_popescu: if
they spike us up and
then
their gear dies early in a recalc cycle it'll be nasty.
imsaguy: it'll be interesting
to see where
things settle
mircea_popescu: if a set mines at 12th on average for 500 hours and
then pops
mircea_popescu: the one
thing
that becomes interesting now is of course useful life.
imsaguy: especially on older hardwear like
theirs
mircea_popescu: ya.
th mining requires some stuff other
than power plug.
mircea_popescu: that guy with
the 1th was
there since like
the 12th neh ?
imsaguy: which means
they only have 33% of combined
pigeons: they just
turned em up
today really
gribble: Estimated percent change in difficulty
this period | 6.19499 % based on data since last change | 10.21154 % based on data for last
three days
pigeons: cause it would work out better for
them
to just mine honestly
imsaguy: because
they're just mining
imsaguy: now
that
the settings are pretty
tried and
true and almost obsolete
imsaguy: it was back when people were
trying
to figure out gpumining
imsaguy: then again, its mainly dead
these days
imsaguy: freenode and
the assbot were something else
imsaguy: I would catch
those almost as quickly as he made
them
imsaguy: he was making
tons of fake otc accounts
imsaguy: well, we're
talking
two different
things
mircea_popescu: imsaguy i
thought freenode finally got
their shit
together ?
mircea_popescu: mod6 so gives idiot kids an incentive
to read up on supaduping
imsaguy: mod6, we fixed
that
though
mod6: it does get
the point across
to
trolls with limited reach -- for everything else
there's SupaDupa
mircea_popescu: the stuff in between
tho, with
the banning... not so fine.
imsaguy: so its good I'm not on
the list
imsaguy: I'm
too emotional with
the bans sometimes
mod6: instead of
telling ChanServ
to hook you up
imsaguy: kakobrekla, not if you're not on
the access list
imsaguy: many of
the people with ops in
there atm aren't on
the access list
mircea_popescu: mod6 anduck was
the guy coming here ocasionally asking me like why im
trusted and shit no ?
pigeons: starsoccer doesn't know
that he's a scammer
mod6: im like WTF is
this guy doing with ops.
imsaguy: The first few negatives
take care of
that
though.
imsaguy: kakobrekla, I used
to be one.
mod6: it seriosly could have been Anduck i'm
talking about
imsaguy: I'm surprised my L2
to pirate is still positive
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla im sure he has pirate +
too, it's how scamming works, you suck up
to people.
imsaguy: kakobrekla: exactly, it all depends on who you
trust, not hte absolute
mircea_popescu: imsaguy who was at some point negative
total so
the rule about rating with negative had
to be reverted ?
imsaguy: half weren't active more
than a week
