Hi thanks~ |

TheNewDeal |
30 minutes, we'll see about that assbot |
00:56 |
usagi |
TheNewDeal yesterday you said I told you I was insuring people (kakobrekla) against glbse defaults. I didn't say that, kako's contract was for pirate |
00:56 |
usagi |
But a lot of the contracts had NDA's at the customer's request so I don't usually talk about particulars |
00:56 |
TheNewDeal |
not only that, anduck said it today as well |
00:57 |
usagi |
Anduck's contract was separate from kakobreklas. I think you can understand that. |
00:57 |
usagi |
Do you run a business in the community, TND? |
00:58 |
usagi |
Or are you just watching :) |
00:58 |
TheNewDeal |
yes, it's called Don't Feed the Scammers |
00:58 |
TheNewDeal |
it's doing smashingly well |
00:58 |
usagi |
Ahh, just an investor I see |
00:59 |
TheNewDeal |
why do you ask? |
00:59 |
usagi |
Dunno, looking for investment options I guess |
01:00 |
usagi |
There isn't much available right now. I've been chatting with you recently. thought I'd ask |
01:00 |
TheNewDeal |
i've got a good offer for you |
01:01 |
usagi |
Yes? |
01:01 |
TheNewDeal |
it's called purchasing my bitbets |
01:02 |
usagi |
Yeah I made a little on bitbet, I should probably take a look at that site again soon |
01:02 |
usagi |
There are some issues with the site tho, which discourage me from betting |
01:03 |
TheNewDeal |
your choice |
01:03 |
TheNewDeal |
regardless |
01:03 |
TheNewDeal |
I'm in the business of scouting out good bets and reselling them |
01:03 |
usagi |
Oh? That sounds interesting |
01:03 |
usagi |
Actually I'll go take a look at the site now |
01:03 |
usagi |
it's been a while |
01:04 |
TheNewDeal |
site hasn't change much, merely the bets |
01:05 |
usagi |
The berkshire bet does not inspire confidence :p |
01:05 |

But I'm still looking |

01:06 |
TheNewDeal |
doesn't inspire confidence? how so |
01:07 |
usagi |
TheNewDeal; it contains subjective terms open to post-interpretation |
01:07 |
usagi |
might toss something on the $10k bet |
01:07 |
TheNewDeal |
there's a 5k bet as well |
01:08 |
TheNewDeal |
no includes default of btc e |
01:08 |
usagi |
I should have been looking at that bet 8 months ago heh |
01:08 |
usagi |
But it would have had to have a much larger payout, this might be the sweet spot for the $10k bet |
01:10 |
TheNewDeal |
the thing about the 10k bet is |
01:10 |
TheNewDeal |
still very profitable for a high btc individual to bet as well |
01:11 |
TheNewDeal |
for instance, someone with 100 btc could reap a 3.8 % return |

depends on a few factors, anywhere from 6-12-ish |

type of shirt, total quantity, number of colors, whether i think you'll be a repeat customer, whether you've ever hit on my wife, whether the artwork is ready, etc |

these unfortunates, who, one can surmise, don't know russian, neglected the detail that one must pump the electrolyte. |
22:44 |
asciilifeform |
the moving 'cutter' must be a nozzle where only a small area of liquid contacts the place to be cut. |
22:45 |
asciilifeform |
on account of your electrolyte being, by definition, conductive - you can pump it electrohydrodynamically. |
22:46 |
asciilifeform |
the funny thing is - they appear to understand exactly why the naive approach results in a putrid mess instead of the desired cut. |
22:46 |

but never made the obvious conclusion. |

if clever, emplace a magnetic field of the appropriate geometry around the fluid intake/return channels, so it is propelled entirely electrically. if even more clever, emplace a system in the reservoir to re-separate the metal from the electrolyte. |

it is odd that the process you are proposing is very similar to existing precision volume manufacturing yet has no "buy-in" from industry |
23:14 |
asciilifeform |
because it has piss-poor ROI in ordinary industry (unless you're the ussr) |

but for desktop machining - perfect. so long as you aren't in a hurry. |

prominently missing from the napkin sketch is a number of necessaries (means for cooling the electrolyte, scrubbing metal out of it, positioning of the head, etc) |
