the only wallet

the chowchow is moving
mircea_popescu: ya well, store coupons aren't competition for bitcoin any more

the alienation of postmodern society

the s.dice price being 0.0044,

the other day in
the
thread about
the new s.dice branch at 0.044
jurov: ill gladly license
teh code
to someone who will operate mpex brokerage with herpderp SEO

to search for something logical

to adequately advertise has caused
the cratering of reddit!
mircea_popescu: jurov : "They aren't publicized well. So I
thought

trying… pearls

trying
the gentle
touch

teh 10th comment
mircea_popescu: the poor guy, he made 50 posts out of sheer frustration... but
then he never heard of coinbr.
mircea_popescu: I understand
the concept between differentiating
the broker and exchange.
This is an obvious concept. My problem was
that I couldn't find a broker for a while. I wasn't aware of
their existence until very recently. "

this shit.
