Diablo-D3: kakobreklaa: hell, Im paying out of my own pocket to deal with this shit, and Im permabroke
Diablo-D3: kakobreklaa: trusting me isnt the issue
Diablo-D3: not even asicminer, the only successful bitcoin company ever
kakobreklaa: DMC2.0 rule: dont trust diablo
Diablo-D3: kakobreklaa: I dont trust anyone, to be honest
kakobreklaa: fuck i need to scam one or two to lower my rating
Ukto: i hate having to pay $200 to have them do a hard loopback in other countries jsut to test a fiber
kakobreklaa: >>Yeah. The BTC-sphere is like in the meatspace: you may be punished just for pennies, but if you scam really big time you become Too Big To Jail. Learn the lesson and don't trust anyone ever more, especially the big fat fishes with super-hero rep.
Ukto: yes, yes they are
burnside: yeah, if the customer wants cheap bandwidth, no reason to not give it to 'em. better to keep 'em happy and take a cut.
Ukto: not in all of theirs lol
Ukto: Diablo-D3: depends on where I think
Ukto: EskimoBob: did you know you can drag-zoom on the graphs? ;)
Ukto: burnside: besides, if its the carrier the cusomer chooses to pay for, I am happy making money on it. ;)
Ukto: wtf. did gox just frop from 21.14 to 20.82? x.x
burnside: yeah, not the behavior you'd expect for sure, definitely not something you'd think would require firmware updates
Ukto: same for brocade, simple commands to configure a port.
Ukto: Besides, being a firmware issue, I can understand their expectancy the issue being on my side
burnside: I love their free ipv6 tunneling service
Bowjob: No, I mean the profits.
Ukto: spent the last week trying to get this port up, to be told its our side the entire time, yet the port works fine with L3/GBLX, nLayer, Equinix's switching fabric, and our own internal stuff.
Ukto: I told them "that, or just overnight another older module"
Ukto: which means HE.net has to do a full firmware upgrade on that core router
Ukto: one gige on one module/port is fine. they just shippd a newer model card out for our latest gige, and it wont turn up. apparently there is a firmware bug effecting the newer card.
burnside: we've had good luck with brocade, but don't use them for transit, only internal switching and load balancing
Ukto: trying to turn up another gige, and their brocade XMR is being stupid over port negotiation
burnside: right now? just because there are higher priority (read: more fun) things to work on
burnside: got frustrated with a few things, went a different direction for btct
burnside: I was graphing the weighted price per Mh on several of the leading mining assets on GLBSE using it
burnside: I used that same engine for charts on a previous project
burnside: yeah, I love the bitfunder charts
mircea_popescu: sounds like something that'd make a good luis de funes comedy by now.

mircea_popescu: all related to "wisdom" of crowds
mircea_popescu: tbh at this point bitcointalk is irreplaceable.
jurov: but they came late i think
jurov: yes. much better one then btctalk
jurov: he can use coinbr, then :DDD
mircea_popescu: if he doesn't he's free to go get himself scammed and learn the hard way.
error4734: but tmrw if some1 want to put 2M$ on table, idk if he'll thinks like me
mircea_popescu: so then alcohol blood content .1337
jurov: apparently im using blockchain.info too much.. they just shown me windows xp boot gif instead
error4734: srsly, how much beer do you drink before writting this FAQ ?
mircea_popescu: why does everyone think everyone's me
mircea_popescu: bah. why doesn't anyone think erik is mpoe-pr instead!
error4734: they are the same personn
mircea_popescu: im not that drama worthy am i
dub: him or that mircea_popescu guy
mircea_popescu: we need a strategic diversion before they blow up as scams
mod6: I thought it was gonna be the asics too.
mircea_popescu: actually im curious what's the next big drama
mod6: well, hacks come and go. they're there to remind us to secure our BTC properly, right?
mod6: but yeah, I'll really need the help with some of this stuff if they're serious. I'll let you guys know more when I do :)
mod6: so... im not sure. gotta talk to 'em and see what makes sense. I think they're starting to see that BTC is the way of the future. Imagine all of the old ladies and their iPad's playing slots at home...
mod6: well, these guys already have a firm foothold in legal gambling here in mn anyway.
mod6: These guys were told about btc and poker a while ago but they blew it off. Now they want to get their foot in the door.
mod6: Well, from what it sounds like, they want something similar to Pokerstars
mod6: awkorama: well, I guess im gonna be meeting with some of these guys to see if they wanna put their money where their mouth is.
mircea_popescu: they gotta feed the hamsters some tobacco
rng29a: mircea_popescu: it's very slow today
mircea_popescu: i'm just guessing it's a waste of effort to reimplement something that already exists and works.
mircea_popescu: micon is marginally relevant. i mean, he's the site's stuffie. who cares whart he does ?
awkorama: mod6> so you are putting together an it team for poker site?
mod6: i played there a few times when coins were like $3
mod6: ya! i told 'em about seals with clubs
mod6: gonna just have to get some seed money maybe to hire d00dz to help me with dev. or clone myself 69 times.
mod6: I mean these guys are not IT people or anything, just poker guys who are dying to play online again.
mod6: It looks like it might run up to $25 though. The word is out on coinz though. My buddies keep blowing up my phone "OMG MOD6 MAKE US POKER SITE NOW!!!111"

gribble: There are currently 20903.827 bitcoins offered at or under 25.0 USD, worth 479496.181721 USD in total.
DeadWeasel: Bugpowder: that's what I expect. Fortunately I've realized no gains as I've sold nothing. I only hold BTCs, not assets, I'm here trying to figure out if I want to.
mircea_popescu: the article fails to deliver.
mircea_popescu: ahahaha o this title promises
mircea_popescu: but even so, there's no shorts to squeeze.
jcpham: that's what the the ladies say about me too
imsaguy: well, given your track record with asics, that means nothing.
mircea_popescu: imsaguy sure. i don't even think it'll hit 30 tbh.
imsaguy: at some point, there is always a ceiling
imsaguy: mircea_popescu, you know as well as I do, that things won't run away forever
mircea_popescu: tghere's no shorts to squeeze
imsaguy: Where's the short squeeze when you need it?
Bugpowder: as the calls go ITM
kakobreklaa: infinitive loop then
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder the btc graph is copying your portofolio graph
Bugpowder: DeadWeasel, IANAL but a conservative position would be that any dividends or payments to you in bitcoin is considered income at the current exchange rate and should be reported. Any price gains in bitcoin holdings would be treated as capital gains upon sale of the coins
jurov: just 0.04 from that bitbet bid... as if exactly calculated to keep the suspense

mircea_popescu: i imagine with btc over 20 pretty much everyone turned on everything they could.
mircea_popescu: but if indeed they hash im wow'd.
mircea_popescu: course, it's still not cut and dried, the recent uptick in hashrate may well be people putting old gpus online cause of price increase
mircea_popescu: that two out of four would is like... wow.
mircea_popescu: i had just about zero faith in any of them people producing working asic miners.
imsaguy: You know who else was always cocky with the clients? Pirate and that ended well.
kakobreklaa: maybe they are having a drink with tom somewhere
kakobreklaa: so bfl will be last of them all
mircea_popescu: so the hash increase is not asicminer.
mircea_popescu: 33th thoroughput atm
JohnGalt1337: if it's under 20k you have it's meh, over that ask some tax advisor
JohnGalt1337: dunno about us tax code, but you have to tax any income but from games it is usally too small
mircea_popescu: it's all in there.
