Yeah I think someone figured out how to put java in the gifs and hacked the forum. So theymos stopped the use of the avatars.


Really, thats crazy how its possible to just corrupt separate formats like that.  Seems like a html flaw but I dont have java installed on my browser for this reason


Also your sig is more troll then ever  :<    :p

How is it all that justified Outahere.   Isnt POS just biased to the biggest holders, Im not sure how every negative you mention comes from or just from that main point ?
11088  Other / Off-topic / Re: If you could be anywhere in the world right now where would you be? on: January 06, 2015, 03:00:51 AM
I wish to be on Hawaii Smiley
Because i live in cold area and would like to see the sun Tongue

Yes I was going to say this also because it seems have alot of western world convenience but also natural beauty still.   I'd like to learn to surf some, the waters alot warmer there I presume.   Also those massive volcanos still active but not in a dangerous way it seems so would be great to literally see how the world works like that.  
I would still buy a speedboat for a quick getaway in case things start to rumble too much.

Random bonus, I like the Lost series for its setting which was filmed on Hawaii so I'd want to go find places perhaps this is possible or not

I would like to be in the vault of a bank. Or a diamond mine perhaps.

A vault  would suffocate you over a weekend or entrap you if caught on cctv.  A diamond mine is full of poor workers who would take diamonds if they could, not much chance of that but maybe you can swallow one :O

Capitalism has the value of the currency distributed among the people.   We have a breakdown now with government dominating commerce and also the debasement of currency and this is done centrally.  Formerly USA was a demonstration of how a massive country could be productive with fair laws so I wont agree its always the case.  Sadly its become that power is centralised and people are no longer the owners and producers but functions of the state
11090  Economy / Economics / Re: USA is now number 2 on: January 06, 2015, 01:36:19 AM
Production always rates over consumption.   China does not rely on USA because quite simply they could just use their own products for at least some use in their society.   Where as dollars are quite useless in the excess amounts they have been produced especially as without taxes on valid business there is not as great demand from tax payment for these dollars.   Raising taxes to balance out fiscal budgets is a failure and diverts business elsewhere, raising interest rates on the dollar debt would wipe out the budget also.   It seems quite clear USA has serious problems without China and other support like the oil trade external to USA being in dollars

Time to break out the ole Chinese to English Translation Guide and start practicing up on your Cantonese! :p

Or take the shortcut and marry a mandarin speaking women to help .   Problem for China is they have unbalanced male to female ratio, their population model is in decline and active labour force

Why did he block them, I thought it was a bug  ?   moderation problems I guess.

e1ghtSpace is the coolest guy on the forum as of this thread pretty much.   nicely done though the troll face thing sucks tbh, I'm subscribing to see some ascii art though I cant actually change my sig right now  :/

You make it sound like men have such high standards Cheesy    At the start of a relationship people are never going to be 100% real, surely thats a given and eventually people get to know each other.   I blame most guys for not being that perceptive or too wrapped in themselves, its more a case of them believing what they want to

Guys, 100k TPS would equate to 8.64 billion transactions per day.  There are only 7 billion people on earth.  That is theoretical upper upper upper limit... probably never be reached.

Because no one ever makes more than one financial transaction per day.

Quite a few transactions are internal.    We do have places like Casinos producing alot of transactions but do they post every one to the blockchain separately ?
I think much less then 1 per person is reasonable as small commerce should not be broadcast with the same security as larger more important transactions that do need a full record

wow, shame we couldnt have 'known' this at the time when bitcoin was supposedly a failed idea because of Mt Gox.   But better late then never I guess, the failure was trusting just one point in the chain to keep perfect integrity when it was private.   Seems this mistake is still out there and storage is still not open enough hence creating 'trust bubbles'

It's just a pyramid scheme of
Few of who sell first able to grab your money, Most of who sell late to be the last bag holders and lost everything

I think this is just misunderstanding.   You can say bitcoin is no good without it being a pyramid scheme.  I could buy a load of carrots and find it a bad transaction, either was a bumper harvest and others similarly were able to source enough carrots so we got too much supply or it could just the produce was bad.   Even if I was scammed by some front, still not a pyramid
  Theres no multiplication effect in bitcoin causing it to be a pyramid, the only similar thing might be the online hype effect where knowledge and acceptance of bitcoin was not linear but more exponential but the protocol itself is quite set and regular to stop over supply
11096  Economy / Speculation / Re: Gold collapsing. Bitcoin UP. on: January 05, 2015, 05:32:02 AM
Two terabytes of data has a cost of transportation to it, there has to be some feedback into the coin at some point.    It would not be worth propagating that data without a decent set worth like bitcoin has, alot of the side chain coins arent really worth much so how could they be mixed in at some cost like this
11097  Economy / Economics / Re: why do people agree to pay taxes? on: January 05, 2015, 05:24:44 AM
lol I liked the mises lecture on the Roman empire and how undermining their own currency with debasement brought about the fall into ruin of many essential parts of Roman society such as citizenship.  In the end the cost of their government was so great, people were better off having their town fall under the 'savages' control then continue to have to pay a majority of their worth not just income to the centrally biased sections of the empire.
    Seemed fair point and comparable to today not hype as we can trace the falling currency value of the actual coin metal percentage
11098  Economy / Services / Re: Need someone from Poland to help confirm PayPal address on: January 05, 2015, 03:21:17 AM
Im thinking it might be a deliberate thing caught up with sanctions against Russia, not sure but I know some EU companies are now barred from serving Russian customers.   Im not arguing this myself but considering how much goes on with paypal it could well be linked to money laundering and treated very harshly so I agree its more an under the table type deal then, 'please hook a brother up Cheesy'

They tend to be harder on finance companies.   I know Syria has sanctions on going especially with EU probably USA I guess and Iran was a big deal with big fines, so banks probably avoid these areas like the plague
11099  Economy / Economics / Re: USA is now number 2 on: January 05, 2015, 03:14:26 AM
Is that true in the countryside where they farm rice or whatever, because it seems like they have to leave home and everything they know to take a shot on living in a distant city and maybe even in a factory just to start themselves off on any capitalist type improvement.      India can also be extremely diverse and separated in success from rich to the poorest, they still have sects in India where the people farm rats to eat as food and are considered unemployable.
  Its very sad to see people cut off from the world like that and I'd hoped more then any personal idea of profit that bitcoin was an idea that helped link isolated communities

This is not a hard fork, it is just a rebranding of the name. Really nothing changed for you as a user, just that you have to look up another three letter code when searching for blackcoin on an exchange.

I havent loaded my wallet for a while, opps.     Sounds like no biggy then, any update should swap in ok

Blackcoin joins the big names of cryptocurrency used in the new Secure Email Protocol DIME's specs by Phil Zimmerman (PGP) and Ladar Levison (Lavabit)!

That sounds massive, I remember the PGP guy from way back when he was in trouble with the law.  Its good to see Zimmerman involved and active in projects as he is like a father figure to this all in my mind
