nubbins` |
13.10 |
00:16 |
BingoBoingo |
The newer ones look for weird BIOS/UFCI stuff try 12.04 you can upgrade from there if necessary. The new installers suck with older mobile hardware though |
00:16 |
nubbins` |
yeah, tried 12.04 as well, didn't have much luck there either |

this is a brand new netbook, i suspect display driver issues |

In many cases it gives the visitor a doggie bag or a sample of knowledge or data that they may be able to use. Sometimes closing the deal on sales or further investment of your idea or product. |

course there are those less fortunate who rarely get such a chance, but you're basically arguing that they should be opressed moar just to keep it up. |
08:07 |

not arguing in either direction, its called observation |

you're also a weasel, but whatever. |

id like to know what definition ure using for weasel and scum |
08:11 |
KRS1 |
=/ |
08:11 |
mircea_popescu |
weasel is someone who behaves arrogantly and offensively anti-thinking, and when they have it pointed out to them they claim they were "just observing", in your case. |
08:11 |
mircea_popescu |
more generally, any passive-aggressive behaviour fits under weasel. |
08:12 |
mircea_popescu |
and scum is one who thinks that the solution to their own stupidity and laziness is enticing, encouraging and if need be forcing everyone else to be equally lazy and stupid. |
08:12 |
truffles |
how was i being arrogant in this case |
08:13 |
mircea_popescu |
<truffles> just trying to say u put in more effort than most ppl prob << how do you distinguish this from "niggers are just born with less smarts" ? |
08:13 |
mircea_popescu |
they're the same substance, "let's presume inferiority abroad" |
08:13 |
mircea_popescu |
such presumption is the core of arrogance. |
08:13 |
truffles |
anyone could be a nerd |
08:13 |
mircea_popescu |
no. anyone could be you. |
08:13 |
mircea_popescu |
being what you call a nerd takes some sweat. |
08:14 |
mircea_popescu |
or in other words, any fuckwit can "roll their eyes" pointlessly. actually reading a book takes some effort. |
08:14 |
truffles |
arguing with u would take effort |
08:14 |
truffles |
id have to painstakingly present the idea |
08:14 |
truffles |

08:14 |

it does also save you from making a fool of yourself thinking hemingway invented donne, but that's i suppose a minor point, especially if you are careful to live among people who won't laugh to your face for it. |

mike_c: satoshi per share is off |
10:39 |
jurov |
also, information to how many shares was the dividend paid is very useful in this case |
10:40 |
jurov |
for example, i have to dig it up every month to distribute divs without rounding errors |
10:40 |
mike_c |
i believe satoshi per share is accurate. at least, it is the same as on mpex |
10:40 |
jurov |
nope. if mpex pays 19btc to 100bn shares, it shows as 1 satoshi per share |
10:40 |
jurov |
but in reality it paid 19 satoshi per every 10 shares |
10:41 |
mike_c |
hm. ok, thanks. i'll make it more accurate. |
10:48 |

which stock is paying 19 satoshis? |

last s.mpoe dividend was 13 satoshi per share. but it has 1bn shares :) |

it'll get confusing as all hell because s.mpoe actually pays divs same month *most* months |
11:02 |
mike_c |
i didn't want to force it though. start arbitrarily applying divs to certain months. because like, what about when a div is paid wrong? do I "fix" it? it does need to be more clear. |

mircea_popescu |
you do have a point there. |

yes, stocks that aren't tied to a fiat income stream. |

all investors should knowvy now thatstocks are merely denominatedinbtc |
12:21 |
rattaTATpow |
no such thing |
12:21 |
rattaTATpow |
all assets are affectedby fiat |
12:21 |
the20year |
That's kind of the point i'm making. Everything from my perspective was hammered shareprice wise when BTC went from $200>$1200 |
12:22 |
the20year |
And even though many of the assets 'weren't in fiat' they seemed to suffer a good deal from fiat's decline in value relative to BTC |
12:22 |
rattaTATpow |
its also possible forbtc to decline in price |

At any rate, RentalStarter collected an average of $81 in fiat per BTC during the IPO phase, bitcoin is now worth 10x more and our div yield in BTC will be 14.3% going forward which puts us right in the middle of the pack on Havelock. Only two stocks would have higher dividends, 5 would have lower dividend yields. |
12:24 |
the20year |
So let me stress that, 14.3% dividend yield based on investments at $81 per BTC |
12:25 |
the20year |
it also doesn't include the fact that we haven't utilized 20% remaining capital in our account due to it being insufficient to buy more properties. |

20:15 |
asciilifeform |
even without any understanding of the politics, you can derive the answer: |
20:15 |
asciilifeform |
1) what's it made of? how conceptually 'heavy' is the device? |
20:15 |
mircea_popescu |
this works sort-of well, until you end up with things like... i dunno, every show on tv being a honeypot by this approach, as well as every newspaper and most of everything else, cause they damn sure don't work for the advertised/intended purposes. |
20:15 |
asciilifeform |
that is, can a motivated person with an undergrad-level education actually understand the design in its totality? |
20:15 |
mircea_popescu |
dja understand by this reading the average fridge is a honeypot ? |
20:16 |
