00:01 TheNewDeal I've got to go get some food before the bar closes
00:01 TheNewDeal ill be back in an hour or so
00:01 BingoBoingo And lets say at 16`367 you spent .33 to purchase 0.5, 0.6 or whatever on No (In case miners betting late on No make covering the offer at a higher weight a challenge, Spz. No becomes obvious and a member of the math challenged drops 1000 BTC on No)
00:02 TheNewDeal No is most definitely not obvious
00:02 TheNewDeal Yes is the most likely scenario
00:03 BingoBoingo Ah, it closes in ~4 days.
00:03 TheNewDeal close doesn't really matter to us
00:03 TheNewDeal i dont think bets are going to be made
00:03 BingoBoingo Well it keeps people from betting when the outcome might be obvious.
00:03 TheNewDeal even if they are made, they are not going to be large ones
00:04 BingoBoingo I'll think on this a bit.
00:05 TheNewDeal sounds good

01:26 * BingoBoingo missed some lines on initial entry and tacked them on at the end.
01:29 BingoBoingo TheNewDeal: I think something about the math you presented for your example is wrong.
01:32 BingoBoingo As an example of fresh bet of .33 BTC on No returns the line [ 52] No 30000 0.33000000 1.93420100 1.60420100 covering 32.8% of your 5.9 BTC stake.

01:42 TheNewDeal bingoboingo you still on?
01:42 BingoBoingo Still online
01:43 TheNewDeal niiiice
01:44 TheNewDeal i've been pondering over some calculations
01:44 BingoBoingo Selling a .33 stake at 30,000 weight for.33 BTC isn't going to be feasible.
01:44 TheNewDeal one I was thinking of was buying .25 stake at 50k weight
01:45 TheNewDeal ;;calc (16.3-.25*50)/(678)*112.8
01:45 gribble 0.632212389381
01:45 TheNewDeal ;;calc ((16.3-.25*50)/(678)*112.8)/(1-.25)
01:45 gribble 0.842949852507
01:46 TheNewDeal return of 84% for you
01:46 TheNewDeal which would be drastically reduced from the 370%+ you have now
01:46 BingoBoingo Looks like [ 53] No 50000 0.25000000 2.24095491 1.99095491 when added through BitBet.py
01:47 TheNewDeal what are the last two columns?
01:47 BingoBoingo The last two are return and then profit.
01:48 TheNewDeal ok
01:49 TheNewDeal ;;calc ((16.3-.25*50)/(678)*112.8)
01:49 gribble 0.632212389381
01:49 TheNewDeal if I send .25 btc to you representing 50k timeweight you would win .63 btc on No
01:50 TheNewDeal that's probably undesireable then?
01:50 BingoBoingo Very undesirable.
01:50 TheNewDeal then I think we're both stuck to the waiting game
01:51 BingoBoingo I might be amenable to .33 BTC at 25000 weight... the line looks like No 25000 0.33000000 1.65041127 1.32041127
01:52 TheNewDeal the thing is I have to take in my whole stake

01:56 BingoBoingo TheNewDeal: The Bitbet.py numbers are a bit off for these new bets because it figures the new sum into the No pile.
01:57 TheNewDeal I'm not using bitbet.py
01:57 TheNewDeal I'm using the current no and yes totals
01:57 assbot [HAVELOCK] [B.SELL] 20 @ 0.0189761 = 0.3795 BTC [-]
01:58 TheNewDeal my return would be 16.5% on yes, -77% no

02:01 BingoBoingo TheNewDeal: I think you might be trying to complicate this thing more than it needs to be complicated.
02:02 TheNewDeal arithmetic doesn't phase me
02:02 TheNewDeal heres the thing
02:03 TheNewDeal you bet later than i did, and on the less probable outcome (in my opinion)
02:03 TheNewDeal so I really only have incentive to offer you less return to reduce your loss
02:04 TheNewDeal and i'm trying to figure out exactly how much would reduce your return and also mitigate my losses in case of some rare event
02:05 assbot [HAVELOCK] [PETA] 3 @ 0.072 = 0.216 BTC [-]
02:07 BingoBoingo Ah, there's the problem. We're looking at different things. You have a large stake in a probable bet, and I'm willing to offer a hedge so you can avoid a total loss. I'd be willing to unload part of my position, but... I am not an insurance company.
02:07 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 7782 @ 0.00085435 = 6.6486 BTC [-] {2}
02:07 TheNewDeal so let's say we wait 1 week
02:08 TheNewDeal how do you think the outcome will look?
02:08 BingoBoingo TheNewDeal: Maybe we wait a week. At the moment I think it looks like a bit like your side is more likely, but it is close to a coin flip.
02:09 TheNewDeal no way it's a coin flip~
02:09 BingoBoingo I think it is close.
02:09 TheNewDeal the network has to average around 6% over 3 diff changes
02:09 BingoBoingo Summer is coming and heat kills miners
02:09 BingoBoingo And I only thing we are getting two changes
02:10 BingoBoingo Last one might even go backwards
02:13 TheNewDeal that's too far out to predict for me
02:13 BingoBoingo I think it is going to be hard to add enough hashpower these next 34 days to keep up with dying equiptment and raise the difficulty all that much.
02:14 TheNewDeal 6% over three changes is mincemeat
02:15 BingoBoingo I just don't think we are getting that third change.
02:15 TheNewDeal the last time there was a 6% change was ?
02:15 BingoBoingo It's been a while
02:17 TheNewDeal if we have 3 changes that take 13 days
02:17 TheNewDeal we will still sneak in
02:17 TheNewDeal this year it has typically taken 12.66 days per change
02:18 TheNewDeal there's a lot of fudge room
02:23 TheNewDeal i've gotta get some sleep here
02:23 TheNewDeal long drive tomorrow
02:24 BingoBoingo Sleep well then.
02:24 TheNewDeal gnight
02:33 BingoBoingo Sigh, I guess I'm going to have to explain how this longshots thing works...

02:40 punkman BingoBoingo: what does your crystal ball say about http://bitbet.us/bet/812/atc-to-reach-block-50000-on-time/
02:40 assbot BitBet - ATC to reach block 50000 on time :: 2.25 B (24%) on Yes, 7.05 B (76%) on No | closing in 1 month 2 weeks | weight: 51`392 (100`000 to 1)
02:44 BingoBoingo punkman: Well considering ATC alternates between difficulty periods that take 4 days and those that take... much longer... No seems like a safe bet, but too safe.
02:45 punkman that's why I went with Yes :P
02:46 BingoBoingo Understandable.
02:46 punkman I'm wondering if it will make sense for the Yes side to rent some extra hashing power at certain points
02:47 BingoBoingo If the pot gets big enough.
02:47 punkman you'd also make ATC to offset the costs
02:49 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 14691 @ 0.00085515 = 12.563 BTC [+] {2}
02:49 BingoBoingo Indeed. The most profitable move in ATC might be to bet large on yes, wait for people to match it and then add 1TH/s a week to ATC's baseline hashpower until the bet resolves.
02:49 punkman BingoBoingo: is there a log of ATC diff changes somewhere?
02:49 BingoBoingo Maybe blockr.io?
02:50 punkman I don't see one
02:50 BingoBoingo You may have to make one

08:20 danielpbarron if you register the name d/kakobrekla it will corespond to kakobrekla.bit
08:21 danielpbarron you could instead register id/kakobrekla and it won't give you a .bit, but something else

08:59 thestringpuller Bitpay wants fucking 2
08:59 fluffypony now is the time to move away from liquidity and go towards solidity
08:59 thestringpuller And it's on the low side of the bid
08:59 fluffypony thestringpuller: Bitpay is 1% on starter, else $30/month no fees
09:00 davout "1% which is pretty much what most niggas pay for CC processing" <<< it really depends
09:00 thestringpuller so they finally are doing flat fees
09:00 pankkake I don't know many who have only 1% for CC
09:01 pankkake or no monthly fee
09:01 davout pankkake: it's usually lower in france
09:01 thestringpuller I guess I'm just bitter since back in the day I could buy BTC pretty much at market price with 0.5% in fees.
09:01 pankkake really? perhaps I've only seen higher rates but maybe banks like to fuck small businesses

10:15 xmj waaat
10:17 mircea_popescu asciilifeform you sur e ? eutectic is a thing
10:17 jurov if it's full one needs to solve the thermal expansion problem and still., also measuring the wall thickness accurately
10:17 mircea_popescu jurov a glass bottle can't be full of a metal ffs.
10:18 jurov too many things that can go bad.. i'm keeping my bricks, thanks
10:19 jurov if you can design "datskovskiy's container" that solves all of above properly, maybe that will be the thing you'll be remembered for
10:19 jurov not for some computer science masturbation
10:20 jurov ;)
10:20 asciilifeform lol
10:20 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: if you can find me a eutectic solder that melts anywhere near 30C (but not liquid at room temp like Hg) i'll buy it right now.
10:20 asciilifeform many useful applications.
10:21 mircea_popescu but maybe the reason that ive not found it is that your buying doesn't compare with 8 millenia of trying to defraud the currency
10:21 asciilifeform lol!
10:21 asciilifeform there was something like wood's metal that did 80, i think
10:24 asciilifeform at any rate, Hg has >2x the density of Ga. and the latter, unlike Hg, won't boil on a gas flame.
10:24 asciilifeform so plenty of simple tests, once you pick a suitable container.
10:24 jurov there are other amalgams not suitable as solder, but for faking gallium in closed container something can be certainly though of
10:24 jurov *thought
10:25 jurov just to remind, the whole discussion started about ease of handling/verification vs. gold/silver bricks
10:25 asciilifeform the only reason no one would even try this crap is the point mentioned earlier (100% of present-day use is industrial, mostly as GaAs semiconductor, fluctuating demand)
10:25 mircea_popescu more's the point, you've not had the benefit of manyyear's worth of having thought about what the people trying to fake it might have thought about
10:26 mircea_popescu i think this problem is often misrepresented by all the young cocks starting new things.
10:26 asciilifeform that's actually the part that intrigues me - how do we fake gallium
10:26 asciilifeform because i could really use some
10:26 mircea_popescu asciilifeform the definityion of a fake is not being useful.
10:27 asciilifeform well, 'fake' in this case is, achieve the melting point, with a well-conductive substance
10:27 asciilifeform (incidentally ampoule could include electrodes for testing conductivity
10:27 asciilifeform )
10:28 jurov now that's something
10:28 mircea_popescu prolly best so far, because you can measure resistance etc
10:28 asciilifeform but in that case the ampoule could not be full. you must be able to tilt it, to expose electrode (perhaps a scammer simply placed a resistor there)
10:29 asciilifeform of course, resistor could be trivially exposed with frequency sweep / bode plot (skin effect on Ga blob != impedence of ordinary resistor)
10:29 jurov also one needs to verify there is no cavity or tungsten bar placed in the middle
10:29 asciilifeform lol! jurov, look at periodic table
10:30 asciilifeform but yes, people would at least try. so, contents of flask must pour freely.
10:30 asciilifeform verify that liquid.
10:31 asciilifeform ideal container would probably be a toroid, half-empty
10:31 mircea_popescu you cant really fake metal to electrodes
10:31 mircea_popescu but yes a ring of ga.
10:32 mircea_popescu sounds pretty cool actually
10:32 asciilifeform with Au probes
10:32 asciilifeform incidentally!
10:32 asciilifeform you could weigh the metal purely electronically
10:33 asciilifeform if you have two electrodes, put a current through it, while surrounded by electromagnet, it will move x cm up the ring in response to Y amps...

12:32 asciilifeform benkay: the wm 'ratpoison', imho, looks better than osx. i.e., it doesn't draw extraneous crud on the display at all...
12:33 asciilifeform no window borders, no buttons, no clocks... nothing

12:34 benkay i've been concerned about a wm stomping on my emacs bindings, and losing a week to fixing it.
12:34 benkay granted this pernicious notion was planted in my head by the notorious lee, so i don't know if it carries any water.
12:35 asciilifeform 'ratpoison' doesn't - but if it did, all you'd have to do is change its own bindings (they're all configurable)

12:37 asciilifeform there are other tiling wm, but they all seem to insist on being 'better' - i.e. actually outputting something extra
12:37 benkay displays are *way* out of my weelhouse.
12:37 asciilifeform benkay: perhaps i did not explain well. most wm actually draw something of their own on the screen - window boundaries, toggles, clocks, etc.
12:38 benkay ah that's what you mean by draw things.

14:52 asciilifeform to use kako's terminology
14:53 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Well, I think retaliation from the Gallium upbidding cartel could take the form of upbidding Indium. iPhones can have problems too.
14:53 kakobrekla i thought it was english.
14:54 asciilifeform it'd be a shame, though, GaAs is costly enough as it is.
14:55 BingoBoingo Yeah, and so many aesthetic uses, Like a liquid metal fountain out in the garden.
14:57 asciilifeform i'd leave this gedankenexperiment on the shelf. just because you can, doesn't mean that you must. but, on the other hand, nobody's gonna play tungsten games with 'gold' that's liquid at 30c.
14:59 BingoBoingo It might take what, 1, 2 kilograms to fill a small fountain? The gallium might need changed out every couple seasons due to impurities?

20:42 asciilifeform at least that's when i (not acquainted with the man personally) learned the truth
20:43 BingoBoingo Interesting how this works.
20:44 asciilifeform that's when i realized that talking about anything worthwhile under a 'tight' alias is arduous to the degree that it's probably not worth it
20:44 asciilifeform folks who do this for a living (e.g. spying) come with 'cover' biographies and essentially live the life of an actor
20:45 asciilifeform and then understand that you can't use actual life experiences, etc. in conversation
20:45 asciilifeform not worth it unless you're paid for the sweat (or perhaps half a step ahead of the gasenwagen...)
20:48 asciilifeform going back to mr mold:
20:48 asciilifeform 'Sacco and Vanzetti came up with an entirely different solution to the slow-MMU problem, one which if I do say so myself was less imaginative than mine, but both more general and more practical. They published theirs in a real conference, received much acclaim for it, and I believe patented it, started a so-called company and eventually sold it to Microsoft.'
20:49 asciilifeform 'At some point during this period, however, I realized that the entire problem was a complete and utter pseudo-problem. ... So I am very confident that neither of these techniques, neither mine nor Sacco and Vanzetti's, has ever been used in practice. There is no need for them, there has never been any need for them, and there will never be any need for them. And this was quite obvious in 1993.'
20:49 asciilifeform 'My Navrozov moment, of course, was when I approached one of the two - Sacco, I think - and attempted to have an intellectual discussion of this realization. The story is basically the same as Navrozov's, so it would be boring to repeat, but basically I came away with the feeling that I'd told someone his Sicilian grandmother liked to get drunk and fuck her own goats.'
20:49 asciilifeform 'Which, in fact, I had. Because I'd essentially told him his research was fraudulent. The fact that my research was also fraudulent, and that neither of ours was particularly noteworthy in that regard, did not matter. And why should it? Others' crimes cannot excuse your own.'

20:49 mircea_popescu <asciilifeform> that's when i realized that talking about anything worthwhile under a 'tight' alias is arduous to the degree that it's probably not worth it <<
20:50 mircea_popescu similarly, managing noise levels in your building is not something you do anonymously.
20:50 asciilifeform 'tight' understood to mean, actually making an effort to conceal your human name
20:50 mircea_popescu ya

20:56 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: ?
20:58 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Well, wind storms are a thing here and... should a hot war start with a nuclear power... I live all to close to Air Mobility command atm to count on these plastic window blinds to save me from radiation poisoning while I wait out the initial fallout's decay.
20:59 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: notice that the folks who are forced to live 'in a target' on account of their profession, have rather different nukefest preparations than the crap traditionally suggested to commoners
21:00 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: all others - if they can afford it, live elsewhere, rather than building bunkers, investing in chemsuits, escape vehicles
21:02 asciilifeform a fine example, actually, of solving wrong engineering problem
21:02 asciilifeform consider, likewise, the infamous 'suit for surviving bear attack'
21:02 asciilifeform most people, at least, have the sense to solve the latter problem another way.
21:03 BingoBoingo Bunkers and chemsuits would be a bit much here. It's not that close and the wind tend to be favorable... I'm more concerned about the windstorms, but if I'm protecting against that unlike the neighbors buying new windows might as well find a solution that offers utility in a few more situations.
21:04 BingoBoingo I mean unless Russian and Chinese missile guidance is that shitty... Then... I'm fucked...
21:04 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: russian rockets are traditionally specced to the 'texas sharpshooter' method

21:06 asciilifeform can't speak for the chicoms. but, given as their machines are more recent, perhaps they do the obvious thing - targeting the loud, unmistakeable radio-cacophony of the target
21:06 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: I was kind of hoping the Russianmilitary reforms from Georgia to Crimea would have also been evidenced in the missile fleet...
21:07 BingoBoingo So... I could be fucked both ways... Loud radio caucophany is my anti-tempest strategy...

21:25 mircea_popescu mike_c sort-of. obviously it's an endless battle etc. but it's not nearly as lopsided as you seem to think.
21:26 BingoBoingo mike_c: GPS sats only get so strong. Most "GPS" relies on indigenous signals to achieve a finer resolution
21:26 mike_c i think it wasn't that lopsided in operation saddam
21:26 mike_c but i think it is now
21:26 asciilifeform mike_c: there are practical limits for electrical supply in orbit. (russia launched reactors, pissing on treaties, for this reason)

23:10 asciilifeform didn't know a thing about computers
23:11 decimation reminds me of that "rabite" guy that MP recently unarchived
23:11 BingoBoingo rabite is a different monster...
23:12 asciilifeform a source that didn't want to be named told me that one dr john mallery (mit) bought it for fire sale price
23:12 asciilifeform after topping (con man) died
23:12 asciilifeform mallery wrote cl-http, infamous for draconian license
23:12 asciilifeform for some years it ran www.whitehouse
23:12 BingoBoingo Rabite's purpose is not correctness, security, or anything else understandable.... Rabit is soley for the lulz.
23:13 asciilifeform mallery is a 'man of wealth and taste', possibly consults for nsa & friends.
23:13 decimation wouldn't be surprising. USG has all kinds of ancient irreplacable computer systems
23:14 BingoBoingo Wealth in itself is nothing without taste.
23:14 asciilifeform what the present-day symbolics corp. is for is not a secret:
23:15 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: I envy you that Sympolics ended on a high note and Apple outlived its masterpiece the SE/30.
23:15 asciilifeform http://usaspending.gov/search?form_fields=%7B%22search_term%22%3A%22SYMBOLICS+TECHNOLOGY+INCORPORATED%22%2C%22recipient_duns%22%3A%5B%22966978090%22%5D%7D&sort_by=dollars&per_page=25
23:16 asciilifeform it brings in a few $10k/yr in maintenance contracts, dated into eternity
23:17 assbot [HAVELOCK] [B.MINE] 6 @ 0.024386 = 0.1463 BTC [-]
23:17 decimation Interesting. Fort Belvoir. Someone in DoD is a fan of these things
23:17 asciilifeform decimation: if i recall, they do cartography there
23:18 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Would you venture to guess at which post of my blog might pass the Mircea OpenBSD one in the next few months?
23:18 asciilifeform can't say that i can
23:19 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: It's my Urbit one. Apparently the Google/NSA complex really dislikes Nock too....
23:19 asciilifeform re: symbolics: if anyone has a $mil or two in their sofa cushions, can probably buy it. but then you'll be conscripted into supporting the ancient contracts.
23:19 asciilifeform it's worth about what a decent restaurant in a small town is.
23:19 BingoBoingo So... $10 mill can piss on the contracts?
23:20 asciilifeform i doubt the contract will be honoured when dks finally succumbs to old age
23:20 asciilifeform there is scarcely anyone left alive who could take his work
23:21 decimation well, $10k per year is hardly worth much. but if one could resurrect the whole project, complete with hardware...
23:21 asciilifeform it's more like 40-50k
23:21 BingoBoingo Can and Can pretend, this distinction enabled the F-35
23:21 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: unlike the airplane folks, this is a case where the rubber actually hits the road. there's a couple dozen ancient boxes, that cannot be replaced.
23:22 asciilifeform proggys dating to gulf war 1 (at least) for which there will be no substitute
23:22 asciilifeform etc
23:22 decimation well, the can be "replaced", FAA style
23:23 asciilifeform sure
23:23 asciilifeform AmEx was once the largest customer of smbx
23:23 BingoBoingo Airplanes hit the road as well. I hope I can find a kind Brazillian tribe to adopt a pastie like me when America surrenders the world's only successful CAS plane.
23:23 decimation these people have been "replacing" routing software since the 90's http://hf.tc.faa.gov/projects/stars.htm
23:23 assbot Standard Terminal Automation Replacement System (STARS)
23:23 asciilifeform they sold thousands of surplus boxes when they moved to some 'enterprise' crudware
23:24 decimation this reminds me of the "point of sale" system upgrades I've witnessed at various US bodegas
23:24 asciilifeform (the lisp machines ran a fraud detector heuristic gizmo, afaik the first of its kind.)
23:24 decimation old mainframe based serial terminals - reliable and invulnerable to hackers (at least, at the lowest layers)
23:25 BingoBoingo Also, did anyone else here have reason to learn Ubuntu 12.04 ships without syslogd or rsyslog???
23:25 decimation how could any thinking person consider a winblows interface an 'upgrade'?
23:26 decimation using a mouse on a cash register is going to be demonstrably slower for data entry for one thing
23:26 asciilifeform the way this usually works is that old vendor (say, ibm) either 'end of lifes' or decides to charge a fortune for support
23:26 asciilifeform microshit comes and offers to 'help'
23:26 BingoBoingo decimation: THe use case I find for fancier DE's over wimple wm's is portables. Smaller the machine the more pointy clicky is a benefit.
23:26 asciilifeform etc
23:26 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 8800 @ 0.00085386 = 7.514 BTC [+] {3}
23:26 decimation well portable ipad based bodegas or whatever are a corner case. I'm talking about Target
23:26 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: on the contrary, using portables as a student is what got me using 'ratpoison'
23:27 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: try using 'clitoral mouse' on the old toshibas, for example
23:27 decimation I wonder if whoever decided to "upgrade" the target POS system to winblows was fired or promoted?
23:27 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Really. Clitoral mouse pushes me into a left side xfce panel.
23:28 BingoBoingo Cwm makes me want a real keyboard.
23:28 decimation I recently decided to force myself to use emacs for sole text editor, took me about a week to get the movement stuff down. THere's no excuse for a cash register not to be purely keyboard basd
23:28 asciilifeform decimation: nothing like the target corp. 'hack' takes place without the cooperation of managerial traitors
23:28 BingoBoingo decimation: What about bar codes. Reisters are run by tards.
23:29 decimation bar code readers are a trival add-on character device
23:29 BingoBoingo Also.. am I actually drunk or am I coding messages...
23:30 decimation I remember my high school days worked at the local library - used IBM serial terminal with "scan gun" that would insert code at the appropriate spot on the terminal screen
23:30 BingoBoingo And when the hell will Pinay cam girls start shaving...
23:30 asciilifeform decimation: i distinctly recall when the libraries here went winblows
23:31 asciilifeform threw out hundreds of perfectly good ibm green screens
23:31 decimation yeah exactly with great model m style keyboards
23:31 decimation I think unisys bought the main library vendor
23:31 BingoBoingo I still can't fucking believe RDF beat Dublin core.
23:32 BingoBoingo LIke Nigbungu brainwashed everyone.
23:33 BingoBoingo And I have yet to verify a nigger with black skin. I've only met white niggers.
23:35 decimation re: managerial traitors : the problem is that somehow standard criminal and civil liability law doesn't apply for some reason
23:35 asciilifeform decimation: u.s. software industry was essentially exempted from ordinary consumer liability by statute some time in the '80s
23:35 assbot [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 5 @ 0.2498 = 1.249 BTC [+]
23:35 asciilifeform don't make the mistake of thinking of this as a 'prime mover' though
23:36 asciilifeform the bureaucrats simply bent under the weight of the seemingly inevitable
23:36 assbot [HAVELOCK] [B.MINE] 39 @ 0.024389 = 0.9512 BTC [+]
23:36 BingoBoingo Eh, come Septemeber one project of mine might consist of making interesting case law. http://www.thedrinkingrecord.com/2014/06/08/inconvenience/
23:36 assbot Inconvenience | Bingo Blog
23:37 decimation for example, I read this story in the morning paper: http://www.hawaiinewsnow.com/story/25730375/estate-of-late-state-health-director-files
23:37 assbot Estate of Loretta Fuddy, state health director killed in plane c - Hawaii News Now - KGMB and KHNL
23:37 decimation the burea-tard who signed Obama's birth certificate died in a plane crash (survived the crash but "had irregular heart beat" after 60 minutes in the water)
23:37 BingoBoingo Are there any lawyers in the Illinois bar here? I'd be interested in making contact if so.
23:38 asciilifeform that makes what, 6? 7? 'interesting' people died in private airplanes in the past year or two
23:38 asciilifeform in usa.
23:38 decimation her estate is suing pratt & whittney for not having fixed the "forseeable" problem of the metal fatigue destroying a prop
23:38 BingoBoingo Fuck, I've have never been measured having a "normal" heart beat.
23:39 decimation how the hell does she get the right to sue a real engine maker, yet no one can sue larry ellison (she died not far from his private hawaiian island)
23:40 BingoBoingo Because Pratt is in the engine industry and Ellison is in the problem industry.
23:40 BingoBoingo Also aside from torsades de points no ununsual heart beats are that... rare
23:41 asciilifeform what are they to do - sue the nice folks who put the thermite limpet in the turbine the night before?
23:41 decimation well, "died of cardiac arrythmia" could be more properly stated as "died of being old, fat and out of shape"
23:42 BingoBoingo Some people therapeutically have abnormal heartbeats
23:42 asciilifeform or should they sue the bartender who mixed the a saxitoxin cocktail?
23:42 assbot [HAVELOCK] [B.MINE] 20 @ 0.024389 = 0.4878 BTC [+]
23:42 assbot [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 2 @ 0.251 = 0.502 BTC [+] {2}
23:43 decimation yeah no doubt, but those people probably could be identified and treated with various medical devices
23:43 BingoBoingo What devices, hearts are easy to treat pharmaceutically. Hearts are awfully deterministic for organic machines.
23:44 decimation ascii, I'm reluctant to jump on the conspiracy bandwagon because the usg seems unable to accomplish anything "good" very well
23:44 decimation why would they be able to accomplish anything "evil" well?
23:44 * asciilifeform doesn't own airplane, will probably have to settle for slipping in his bath with a cocked nailgun
23:44 decimation or fall out of a building
23:45 asciilifeform that, etc.
23:45 assbot [HAVELOCK] [AM100] 44 @ 0.00229936 = 0.1012 BTC [-]
23:46 asciilifeform at the rate the bureaucrats work, might die of old age. can never get quality service around here!
23:46 BingoBoingo All of those are too obvious vor contemporary assassinations. What about was prescribed too much Vitamin D3?
23:48 BingoBoingo Is no one creative anymore?
23:48 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: bunch of folks in ussr once died from vitamin d overdose. a tank of it was stolen and sold as 'cooking oil' (has roughly the correct appearance and consistency)
23:48 BingoBoingo It does indeed
23:49 asciilifeform interestingly no mention of this on pediwikia
23:50 asciilifeform the case was an interesting one, in that it was initially treated as epidemic
23:50 asciilifeform they ended up having to call in the soviet equivalent of a 'pinkerton' to crack the puzzle
23:50 asciilifeform (what did the corpses have in common)
23:50 BingoBoingo Well, my father liked to see records of how much strontium 90 us younguns got growing up. A few weeks after a med adjustment his heart gave out, but he had great bones...
23:51 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: see also the death of slobodan m.
23:52 asciilifeform (conveniently given the 'opposite' heart rate med shortly before he was to testify)
23:53 BingoBoingo The thing is I would have had no idea until I was accidentallied the pharmacy school's microphone slave.
23:54 BingoBoingo Then again people with ideas are idiots.
23:57 BingoBoingo I seriously wonder what will happen now at the late August court date since... I am not an idiot and the acting DA should not be an idiot and is not inocent.
23:57 assbot [HAVELOCK] [SCRYPT] 5 @ 0.02777999 = 0.1389 BTC [-] {3}
23:57 BingoBoingo I mean the Federalk government has all of these weird laws to blow the whistle on.
23:58 BingoBoingo Most people can survive the regime on civilized arrangements.
23:58 BingoBoingo !up justusranvier
23:59 BingoBoingo justusranvier: Plz say your dog is okay.
23:59 asciilifeform i often wonder how many people go to bed every night, with not one nailgun wound, disappointed at their insignificance
23:59 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: I've been dping that since the not at all secret saturday reveal. I am disappoint
23:59 asciilifeform 'i'm still alive, must be a tard'
