oh lol |
| 09:14 |
nubbins` |
that was actually dory's second time out front |
| 09:14 |
nubbins` |
the first time, she was just sitting in the window checking things out |
| 09:14 |
asciilifeform |
nubbins`: i'm not even a very tall fella, but the only orientation i can lie down in where legs do not go over the edge is diagonal (after pushing pet out) |
| 09:14 |
mircea_popescu |
"and i threw it out" |
| 09:14 |
nubbins` |
then her hated enemy, Gandalf, approaches the window |
| 09:14 |
nubbins` |
and Dory actually launched herself at him, busting the screen out of the window, and chased him down the block |
| 09:15 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform you could cut her in half, have a chunk curl up on either side. |

it was bananas and i was almost too high to deal with it |

asciilifeform the fact that he let the loonies out is a fact. the proposition that this had any measurable effect is loonytalk |

mostly off the sort of schmucks who either depend on or aim to depend on a "social worker" career |

mircea_popescu |
allahisgreat2000 ok, but ask a question. |
| 10:08 |
allahisgreat2000 |
what stops people from betting more when the results start getting obvious and ruining your bet? |
| 10:08 |
* |
nubbins` seriously considers purchasing a new(er) minidisc player and some more blanks, while he still can |
| 10:09 |
mircea_popescu |
allahisgreat2000 they get lower weight for betting later. |
| 10:09 |
nubbins` |
allahisgreat2000: generally the weight will decrease as the bet gets closer to close. |

mats: aha, 'microkernel', academitardia circa late '80s-early-'90s that apple folks still live with today. |

but you get lower returns as well, even tho you bet early? |
| 10:09 |
nubbins` |
allahisgreat2000: early bets have higher weight and are therefore worth more. |
