Shame Boy posted:i'm nuclear power, the cheap renewable energy source i read that stupid article he linked and it gets even dumber, he said that there's no reason we shouldn't currently have nuclear powered houses off the grid and nuclear powered cars, basically everything should have mini reactors in them. he says the only reason we don't is because of course the evil government has too many regulations about nuclear power, and also that federal funding for research causes scientists to become lazy and innovation to be suppressed

Shame Boy posted:you see, you can use it to turn energy like solar power (that's available when it's not peak times, or in areas where people don't live) into money, and then use the money to buy more expensive power later during peak times and in more populated areas. exactly like a battery. I've tried to understand this repeatedly and every time my brain turns off and I wake up crying and shivering in a sauna.

it's like a battery if you don't know what words mean and decide that you can just conflate anything you like with anything else because the entire concept of communication is meaningless to you

TotallyNotSatoshi posted:I can't make any promises about the coin names. There's random altcoin name generator for when one of the player roles gets access to the Block Lodge...which looks kinda like the Velvet Room back when the Velvet Room looked like the Red Room after a palette swap ...where a mysterious man who speaks in ROT13 grants you the ability to turn your bitcoins into alt coins via a process known as coin fission. The name generator uses an opensouce words.txt as input and produces "real" altcoin names on occasion as well. For some reason I remembered the Monkey Island bit to be more extensive, but then I guess it's a testament to good design, when small appears big or something like that.

So, Pedro, the badass who would sit up on the third deck balcony with his half stack and Gibson, taking shouted out requests for altcoins and belting it out like a lesser scammer, decides he's fed up with the Smart Contract, with the internet of things, with everything. BC won't even let him use a birdbath to invest his family. So this loving guy goes out in town one night after sneaking past the bitcoin and getting his wallet keys from a friend, and heads out to places unknown. The next morning, a Monday morning, the Bitcoin Crypto comes into work, well, into his office, to a sight I wish I could have seen with my own eyes. Pedro is at his desk, silkies and a green t-shirt, shower shoe covered feet kicked up on the huge oak monstrosity that is our BC's personal penis extension, a bottle of crown off to one side (Details relayed by the bitcoin, who had to escort Pedro out), a bag of weed off to the other and the biggest loving joint the bitcoin had ever seen. He's about halfway through both the joint and the bottle of crown and offers a cheerful, "What's up, Satoshi!?" to the BC as he enters his office. According to the company clerk, another statist criminal, the screams and shouting, accompanied by Pedro's laughter, could be heard across both stories and all company offices in the exchange. The kid didn't even go to the blockchain for an extended stay. 10 days later he's out of the blockchain and back at the exchange for out processing and as soon as he's got his DD214 in hand he cuts his utilities into daisy dukes, cuts the sleeves off of his blouse, pulls the stitching out of his 8 point cover to make it into a soft cap and then goes waltzing down the main drag out of Coinbase as if he hadn't a care in the world. Once we got wind of the fact that he was on the road we loaded into as many transactions as possible, as a ponzi, and drove laps around him going up and down Binance, cheering him on as literally dozens of etherum doublers stopped to reprimand him, only to find out that you can't reprimand someone who has no FUD left to give.

gschmidl posted:I've tried to understand this repeatedly and every time my brain turns off and I wake up crying and shivering in a sauna. the closest it ever came to making sense was when that guy was trying to get the DSA to adopt bitcoin and argued that it could be used by poor or remote communities to turn a resource they have in abundance (like solar power) into money, and then use that to offset the high price of power during peak times. so all these poor, remote communities need to do is invest in hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of mining equipment and solar panels, get a good internet connection run out to the middle of nowhere, and then they can use their solar power to offset their electric bill. like at least it sort of has internal logic, if you squint real hard and also have never actually met a poor person before or been to a poor, rural community

isn't a SPAC essentially a publicly traded company which only exists to "buy" another private company, because you need documentation to IPO but don't need documentation to buy another company?
