(trilema) nubbins`: nooooo, i never put a satoshi in gox
(trilema) nubbins`: mircea_popescu: it's hard trying to figure out how greedy to be, as the great nubs said
(trilema) nubbins`: but a lot of people who you'd think would know better.
(trilema) nubbins`: well, i shouldn't say everyone
(trilema) nubbins`: EVERYONE held coins in gox

(trilema) nubbins`: roger sounds right
(trilema) nubbins`: no kidding.
(trilema) nubbins`: mircea_popescu: i can't think of any other reason for a document leaker to modify the documents he's leaking.
(trilema) nubbins`: which led me to believe that he sort of made the whole document up, and it got traction, so gox figured "now's as good a time as any"
(trilema) nubbins`: ReutersEmily: you might be interested to know that the guy who "leaked" the document -- selkis, i think -- actually did the redactions himself
(trilema) nubbins`: ReutersEmily: regarding that leaked crisis plan, did you see the actual PDF? with the "redactions" on the financials page?
(trilema) nubbins`: ReutersEmily: this channel -- and a few others -- have identification features that are useful to this end

(trilema) nubbins`: i've met none of these people in real life, and don't have any plans to
(trilema) nubbins`: for example, i don't day trade, and i don't think most others here do either
(trilema) nubbins`: ReutersEmily: in my experience, those who day trade don't really hold long-term, and vice versa
(trilema) nubbins`: it's a bit of an "a-ha moment"
(trilema) nubbins`: the implication being that widespread acceptance is the only thing that will lead to sustained high value
(trilema) nubbins`: for example: if 1btc=$1m, i wouldn't need to "cash out" because i could just as easily spend my btc at walmart
(trilema) nubbins`: since if btc has reached a large usd value, it would be because you can actually use it as currency in a great many places
(trilema) nubbins`: which begs the question a bit
(trilema) nubbins`: ReutersEmily: a common question is "so will you cash out all your btc when it reaches <large usd value>?"

(trilema) nubbins`: what makes ya think that?
(trilema) nubbins`: surprising amount of art for sale on btctalk
(trilema) nubbins`: wise woman :0
(trilema) nubbins`: TBF i was buying btc and pushing them into SR as fast as i could, and pascale said "maybe we should sit on a few k's"
(trilema) nubbins`: luckily had the foresight to stop spending them
(trilema) nubbins`: avg price for the ones i still have was around $22
(trilema) nubbins`: i spent most of the early ones

(trilema) nubbins`: all three, i suppose
(trilema) nubbins`: sadly, i dropped the ball and only ordered the color CIS kit today

(trilema) nubbins`: where, indeed, can one send one's btc?
(trilema) nubbins`: so as not to distract from the joy of driving
(trilema) nubbins`: dexX7: sort of like how some people prefer to drive around in cars with unpainted, boxy chassis
(trilema) nubbins`: "So, Fred’s gone to live with the big fag-hater in the sky."
(trilema) nubbins`: if only someone cared about those poor penguins D;

(trilema) nubbins`: benkay: you even have a header now ;D

(trilema) nubbins`: now isn't that nicer?
(trilema) nubbins`: also FWIW if all your text is at 100%, having a title wrapped in h1 AND setting font-size=250% is nuts
(trilema) nubbins`: not go immediately to the previous or next one
(trilema) nubbins`: well yknow. if i'm reading an article i wanna read an article
(trilema) nubbins`: if you insist on keeping "previous/next", at least put it after the article
(trilema) nubbins`: hey, i'm just trying to help
(trilema) nubbins`: h1 is for nothing
(trilema) nubbins`: and the "previous/next" shit that makes me feel like i'm navigating a shit text dump from some forum archives
(trilema) nubbins`: mostly because of the needless <h1> post titles
(trilema) nubbins`: oh, they still are
(trilema) nubbins`: now it's not taller than the articles
(trilema) nubbins`: i just halved -- at least -- the height of your footer
(trilema) nubbins`: ehh, feed readers
(trilema) nubbins`: it's fine if you want a plaintext-only website, but it doesn't have to be brutally unappealing
(trilema) nubbins`: benkay: what i want is something that doesn't make my eyes bleed
