06:21 <@Dolemite> mr0ning, be0tches and h0ez!
06:25 < xray> mornin

08:58 < dasunt> Ah, Bitcoin has crashed.
08:58  * dasunt embraces shadenfreude.
09:01 <@rattle> Not really.  It just lost, oh, six days of gain.
09:02 <@rattle> Every time BTC spikes, there's a drop 3 days later because folks sell holdings for hard currency.
09:02 <@rattle> It's volatility is becoming increasingly predictable.
09:03 <@rattle> Amazingly, my BTC holdings have consistently out preformed everything else I've had.  I'm amazed by this.
09:03 < dasunt> Why?  Higher risk, higher reward.
09:05 < dasunt> OTOH, you may need to check your other investments.  http://imgur.com/uAu6qlr

09:06 <@rattle> Maybe I've just been lucky and bought at the right times..  Shrug..  But in my portfolio reports, my BTC is beating out my index holdings.
09:09 < dasunt> I understand.  I'd be tempted to put a little "fun money" into BTC.
09:13 < dasunt> Still going to try to max out my IRA this year though, so I'm not to that point.
09:22 < dasunt> life pro-tip:  Don't buy a neglected house.  It destroys fun money.  Or hell, do buy a neglected house, the prices are much better.  ;)
09:26 < TheDukh> Family used to do house flipping after the housing market crashed.  ended up making a little bit off of it
09:30 < dasunt> We've thought about it.  Or buying/renovating/renting.
09:32 < TheDukh> There's a few lower price houses near local university.  at the rate it's been expanding, they'll be snached up at nearly double their value for just the land.  Either that or renting to students just for convenience
09:35 < dasunt> We've had a house flipped in our neighborhood, but the flipper should be flogged for doing shoddy work and driving up prices.
09:35 < dasunt> The flipper did stuff like *shingle* a flat roof (1/12 slope).
09:46 <@Dagmar> It *could* just be that aestetix is an idiot for thinking that a 1/10th drop in value == "crashed"
09:55 < dasunt> What was the 2008/9 financial crisis crash?  Something like 20%?
09:57 < dasunt> Hmmm, here's a 9% drop called a crash:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_Flash_Crash

10:41 <@rattle> aestetix: I'm a bit surprised you're not commenting up a storm about the hearing.
10:43 <@rattle> dasunt: One tip, if you start playing with BTC.  Track your buys/sells independently of your exchange.  Use Quicken or something.  When fees and everything are figured in, you'll see a different performance picture that looking at an exchange graph gives you.
10:44 <@rattle> I do a $10 a week purchase and track the exchange rate independently of the exchanges I use.  It's always a little different.
10:44 < aestetix> rattle: that's becaue in 15 minutes I go home for the day
10:44 < aestetix> and I had a bunch of meetings ;)
10:44 < aestetix> unless you mean on twitter, which I have resolved to stop using
10:44 <@Evilpig> taking 30 minutes to visit a rub and tug doesn't count as a meeting
10:45 < aestetix> plus
10:45 < aestetix> it's like if you're 15 minutes late to a movie it doesn't matter because there are so many ads
10:46 < aestetix> in the same way, a congressional hearing involves 15 minutes of useless "thank you for your service" crap before anything starts
11:00 < dasunt> What hearing?
11:14 <@Dolemite> Here comes the snow!
11:15 <@Dolemite> Apparently the Nashville Weatherdome has caused it all to deflect East, to Knoxville
11:41 < _NSAKEY> Dolemite: I saw little bits of it when I was out just now in Murfreesboro.
11:42 < _NSAKEY> It's not sticking, for the record.
11:42 <@Dolemite> We'll see what it does here.  We're going to be getting a lot more of it than you guys.
12:30 <@Evilpig> guess who I saw at lunch
12:30 < xray> Elvis
12:30 <@Evilpig> nope, but he is fat and balding
12:30 <@Dolemite> Crazypants?
12:31 <@Dolemite> We're waiting for your answer.
12:31 <@Evilpig> skydick
12:32 < xray> Who?!?!?!
12:32 <@Dolemite> That's pig's name for skydog
12:32 <@Evilpig> yeah skydick, that's what I said
12:32 <@Dolemite> The guy who runs Narcissitcon
12:32 <@Dolemite> er, Narcissistcon
12:32 <@Evilpig> he has it branded on the back of his vehicle too
12:37 < xray> I'm sensing a disturbance in the force
12:37 <@Dolemite> More like crossing the streams in Ghostbusters
12:38 < xray> LoL
12:38 < xray> Oh look a flaming marshmallow man
13:44 < aestetix> ok
13:44 < aestetix> just finished season 1 of homaland
13:44 < aestetix> homeland
13:44 < aestetix> I think I will stop there
13:49 <@Dolemite> That or just skip to the most recent season
13:49 <@Dolemite> It takes place in Germany
13:50 < aestetix> oh wunderbar
