decimation: I'm surprised this hasn't happened with silicon valley already
mircea_popescu: weren't they supposed to at some point release a report ?
mike_c: you don't know, yet it is a great time to buy.
mircea_popescu: i still don't understand the merger idea too well, tbh.
mike_c: i don't presume that at all. but it's either that, or a complete scam.
benkay: past shareholders aren't going to be allowed to sell at that price, mike_c
benkay: !t h rent
benkay: o but haven't you heard mike_c the market price is now near the next "i"plol price!
mircea_popescu: pankkake isn't that basically the bitcoin gem "idea" ?
mircea_popescu: JERRY: I don't even want to talk about it anymore. What were you thinking? What was going on in your mind? Artistic integrity? Where, where did you come up with that? You're not artistic and you have no integrity. You know you really need some help. A regular psychiatrist couldn't even help you. You need to go to like Vienna or something. You know what I mean? You need to get involved at the University level. Like wher
pankkake: isn't it basically stockholm syndrome?
benkay: !t m s.mpoe
decimation: maybe we can wrap everyone in a titanium shell so they don't experience hardship in life
mircea_popescu: actually... you don't really need oculars for this
mike_c: this is bitcoin, we don't care about wasting electricity.
mike_c: ah. don't know whether the rows are staggered. i didn't know there were displays like that.
mircea_popescu: mike_c he knows what he's asking. you can't really read on the things
mircea_popescu: weren't such bad days, those.
mircea_popescu: perhaps because the press isn't very well equipped to report these days.
mircea_popescu: they can't even comply with the actual fed regulations on document handling.
mircea_popescu: andyfletcher you don't say.
kanzure: nope i haven't touched wii yet
andyfletcher: looks like the pdf was wrong in the SEC assertion that handing over the data wasn't against EU data protection regs. MEMO/13/923 and MEMO/14/60 which were approved by the EU Parliament on 2014/03/14 refer to 'all natural persons'. Not just EU citizens.
bounce: you've been training for that, haven't you?
kanzure: so.. if anything, don't talk to me about time.
bounce: well, though this is a dangerous suggestion, might look at some sort of theoretical underpinning of why regulating, with what overarching goal if you will. I don't really see them do more than plug holes that may or may not exist
asciilifeform: amazing how $300K machine comes with visual basic turd that often physically destroys the enclosure when the thing boots (carriages get sent to the axis limits, because $300K apparently doesn't buy you limit switches...)
kasa32: it's not like they haven't done this before
mircea_popescu: bounce the curse of regulators, in all times and places, is that they can't afford to hire the sort of brainpower they need.
mircea_popescu: bounce i don't think that discussion is yet ripe. so far they've prosecuted one guy.
kanzure: mircea_popescu: i don't have a specific project in mind, and if i did, i would just buy the dna from a synthesis company.
asciilifeform: kanzure: 'what do you mean it doesn't run on top of our winblows stack'
kanzure: asciilifeform: terrible piles of crap, aren't they?
kanzure: asciilifeform: and they didn't put me on the paper anyway
bounce: breaking mirrors is bad luck, don't you know
benkay: kanzure: nope. clients don't need all that.
kanzure: mircea_popescu: huh? probably not. i don't know who you are referring to.
tg2: I wouldn't be worried about SEC asking for info
tg2: Sec can't do much out of the us
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i wouldn't want it in my memory anyway.
asciilifeform: and, for things one can't remember (e.g. gold, disk of warez) one can remember a hiding place
mike_c: well, i think the service is more for those that can't secure their keys.
mircea_popescu: i can't remember my key, what are you on about. 4096 bits, srsly ?
asciilifeform: proposing that people who can't remember keys can function in civilization seems like an especially cruel lie
mircea_popescu: that's the problem, they can't really.
benkay: didn't think so. wiser heads, etc.
asciilifeform: the way that a child drawing a stick figure in mud 'begins to make sense', but a drunken hippie taking a shit onto a canvas doesn't
mircea_popescu: no, he didn't, but he was asked.
mike_c: he said he wouldn't say.
kasa32: he didn't say
mircea_popescu: you know, like coloring books, nobody says they shouldn't exist, just, they should exist in a much more fucking responseible fashion
benkay: i don't need permission to host it
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves can't hurt anything
benkay: you shouldn't.
mircea_popescu: yes well as general practice, the underwriter of a stock can't just quit, they have to leave the stock to be shepherded by someone else.
velacreations: that is AM, and TAT clearly says NEOBEE isn't affected
neilol: Jesus - sorry, not speaking for you TAT, didn't realize it was actually a sensitive issue
velacreations: when did TAT step down and why wasn't shareholders notified?
ThickAsThieves: neilol, please don't speak for me
mircea_popescu: kids wanna accounting-fraud their own books (which they don't keep anyway) and woe unto anyone getting in their way. ☟︎
mike_c: i don't think that's the spirit of the bet, but i don't think it matters.
mircea_popescu: somehow nobody goes to conferences tro say "hay! we're so fucking retarded, you wouldn't believe!"
mircea_popescu: how the fuck some "company" slash "ceo" that can spend enough to mediabuy a small mediteranean island can't get their corp comms in working order is beyond comprehension.
mike_c: i don't think temporarily counts, but it sounds like it will be permanent soon to me.
mircea_popescu: and why arent you announcing you're no longer running it and who is now running it, if you aren't.
mircea_popescu: so, you were running an asset. why aren;'t you announcing it stopped trading, if it did
mircea_popescu: benkay i still don't get what the relation is supposed to have been. just that the guy can't stfu ?
benkay: shit i ain't even sufficiently well capitalized to go *into* retirement yet!
benkay: wasn't via me, tho mircea_popescu, was it?
mircea_popescu: well they didn't announce it or anything.

the20year2: i haven't had to buy a single share to increase price
assbot: I haven't understood a single word you've said since I met you, not one single word.
benkay: !t h rent
mike_c: so if it doesn't crumble it causes the car to fly!
mircea_popescu: the item in the video doesn't match that jpg
tg2: I'm surprised they haven't been sued into the ground yet. People are overly complacent
punkman: so they redesigned Paypal to be responsive or whatever, now I can't even get to my account page
mircea_popescu: but you know, what happens if the obstacle isn't brissant
tg2: sadly I don't know of many romanian wines
tg2: I /think/ it's actually below the frost line but I wouldn't want to test it out
mircea_popescu: i don't even mean good. decent. something i could in good conscience feed women.
benkay: luckily, we don't have much actual in-person robbery here. just communism.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform cuz you live in the sticks. they don't bother with that shit here.
benkay: asciilifeform: there aren't zappers floating around?
the20year2: i've never understood homeopathy, and i don't think most who believe in it do either
