Diablo-D3: BingoBoingo: no, thats totally paleo
truffles: i rly dont get how vegans/vegetarians can be fat

truffles: gotta give up the bread for the alcohol

Diablo-D3: if its not olive oil or coconut oil, you shouldnt be using it
Diablo-D3: truffles: alcohol isnt paleo either, but if you're going to get drunk, at least do it on wine
truffles: also doesnt olive oil burn faster
Diablo-D3: no peanut oil either, peanuts are a legume, and legumes are your doom.

truffles: maybe i can make something tastey today
Diablo-D3: truffles: what are you looking for exactly?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo what i did was, melt homemade butter (it really kicks ass this thing), very lightly fry mushrooms-garlic-shrimp
mircea_popescu: then fish it all out, add flour, then add milk to make the sauce. then dump the pasta (which had been cooking all through) and the fished out material and serve.

chaang-noi: 420, so who is lighting up in celibration? :)
nubbins`: mircea_popescu: coin collectors disagree, and as long as they continue to do so...
mircea_popescu: the entire value of the investment is predicated on circumstances changing of such nature that they can't continue to do so.
mircea_popescu: think about it. the "numismatic" value of bullion coins exists for as long as overcapitalised clueless americans stil exist.
nubbins`: the overcapitalised clueless always have and will always exist, although the nation to which they call home changes over time

mod6: so when you have to cut one into quarters or whatever for tp... that guy wont care if its rare or not, only if it melts pure.
nubbins`: well, i have numismatic coins and vanilla bullion
nubbins`: and cash, and btc, and property, and skills, etc
nubbins`: coincidentally, this whole collecting thing started when i was about six years old
nubbins`: i found a Cyprus 3 mil coin in a handful of change
nubbins`: located Cyprus on a map, and dutifully hid away my newfound treasure for future days when it'd be worth a million bucks
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the idea of coins is mostly that joe schmoe doesn't need any gear.
mod6: actually, im no aficionado, but density tests don't work to determine if filled with tungsten afaik. (gold and tungsten have nearly identical density) -- typically i've heard that the smaller the denomination of coin, the safer because they're harder to forge.
mircea_popescu: mod6 at the size of a coin, the cost of tungsten filling exceeds the value extracted.
nubbins`: i should just put "^" on a timer
mod6: ahh. that then too.
nubbins`: you can buy tungsten wedding rings
nubbins`: altho impossible to cut off, so if you find yourself in the ER, they'll be shattering your ring with a set of locking pliers
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform actually at the size of a coin, recognising lead fillings with a density meter is not trivial
mircea_popescu: not that it can't be done, but you need steady hands and eyes
mircea_popescu: nubbins` tungsten's durity is why it's not worth filling coins with it.
nubbins`: mircea_popescu: from what i've heard, it's a massive pain to work tungsten
mircea_popescu: and the cost is per item (ie, making a 1/2kg filling or a 5 gram filling costs roughly the same)
nubbins`: all kinds of fancy metals being used for rings these days. cobalt is another one

ozbot: Sanitizing Bitcoin: This Company Wants To Track 'Clean' Bitcoin Accounts - Forbes
ThickAsThieves: That conversation also involved Yifu Guo, another 20-something like Waters, who became a “Bitcoin millionaire” selling computing equipment dedicated to “Bitcoin mining” though his company Avalon. Now the unlikely trio of two technologists and a Wharton grad is launching Coin Validation, a due diligence service for Bitcoin businesses that they hope will help set regulators’
ThickAsThieves: One business is already committed: Guo’s Bitcoin mining equipment maker, Avalon. A big question is whether they can get others to sign on as they’ll need a network effect to make the database useful.
ThickAsThieves: “We’re not in this to make money, we’re in it to get it sorted with Congress,” says Mellon, who eschews the dessert menu for a bowl of fresh raspberries.
mircea_popescu: sometimes it's like they have a stupid competition going and we never fouind out.
ThickAsThieves: “We don’t want to be the sheriff of the Bitcoin community. We just want to create an ecosystem of clean addresses.”
kakobrekla: i will shoot the sheriff and maybe the deputy too.
ThickAsThieves: if the tracking is centralized, and they change the data internally
lurkwingduck: Especially considering how the security/anonymity minded people use address.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves basically this is a lot of pretense around the reputation scam people try to run on the forum
mircea_popescu: whatever was that dork's name that had a gambling list where he blacklisted everything (except scams) ?
Namworld: So that's like if every time a US dollar bill was used for a drug transaction, it became "void"? Good luck with that.
ThickAsThieves: they dont wanna make any money or police anyone or anything bad bro
mircea_popescu: Namworld no, more like "if you say avalon is pretty scammy we will write down your address on our list of things we hate"
lurkwingduck: They just want to point fingers at "bad" addresses
ThickAsThieves: they just wanna sit on top of the blockchain and see if coins come out
mircea_popescu: they just know vcs are retarded and are trying to milk it while it's good.
lurkwingduck: Haha mircea_popescu that is most likely the exercise.
Namworld: yeah, I meant allow businesses to refuse "bad" addresses, which I suppose it means tracking "unclean" coin. Which is a pretty awful thing to do.
Namworld: Maybe they should go propose to the USG to make bills with sensors that explode when they're used in an illegitimate transaction. This way the USG could have only clean money circulating.
mircea_popescu: Namworld notrly. great way for businesses run by idiots to sink themselves.
