So far it only works with 1 phone, 1 credit card (plus the fillable Google card) and only at the newest NFC readers in select locations.  Until Google can put updated NFC readers in every single spot there is a regular magnetic CC reader, and until they get all the credit/debit cards added to the app, it is just a dream.

"Google pushes its’ mobile payment solution ‘Wallet’ onto two new NFC capable phones – the Galaxy Nexus & LG Viper."

It's not that simple in real life when shit hits the fan. You come to that same guy with a chunk of gold instead of the piece of paper, to get some goods or to arrange for border crossing.  Guess what happens next...

Unless your situation is really (rarely?) special and unique, a bar of gold will often help you about as much as a brick.


You cannot be speaking from experience, this is purely your opinion. If we look back historically, gold has always been valuable, even in the very worst situations. Hence the saying "as good as gold". Only a global disaster of epic proportions could effect gold's fungibility, IMO.

Why do you assume that gold will only be traded in bars? There are American eagles, Canadian Maples, and other official coins that are not only valued for their gold content, but also have numismatic value and are backed by the authority of various governments.

I'd like to know one thing:  Which department do you work in?

Is it the psych ward?

Aren't psych evaluations mandatory for CEO's and other high profile people?

I'd like to work through OTC. Contact me on the OTC IRC or here through PM.

We'll have to talk a little about why you want the invite first!

Can you please list the trackers & content description u have invites for?

Sorry, no OTC. I'm a well-verified member, I think that is sufficient.

Isn't it?

Can't wait to get this in stock to try with my Land 240.

1247  Economy / Goods / [FS] - FUJIFILM FP-3000B Polaroid Instant Film - Now in stock - 12CAD/pack. on: October 28, 2011, 11:06:23 PM
Fujifilm FP-3000B instant pack film

  • 15 second development
  • 10 shots per pack
  • 4.25" x 3.25" (7.2×9.5cm) shot size

This is great nostalgic film for shooting practically in the dark. There is no need for flash if there is enough light to read by. Outdoor daytime shots are more difficult but some nice results have also been shown. Fuji did a remarkable job reproducing Polaroid's classic film. Its actually better than the original which had more grain and inferior contrast.

Current Status: In stock - 45+ packs remaning

Cost:
Priced at $12 CAD per pack each / five packs for $10 CAD each.
Shipping to CANADA only at this time.
Shipping cost per order: actual
Combined shipping: +$2.00 per pack

BTC @ Market rate

1248  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Front Page of Drudge: Vatican Calls For Global Bank on: October 25, 2011, 02:10:37 AM

Jesus Christ throws the moneychangers out of the temple.

...2000 years later, Pope Benedict calls for a global banking cartel.


Fallen, fallen, is Babylon the great,
and is become the habitation of devils,
and the hold of every foul spirit,
and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.



Very fitting. That scene reminds me of "The Visual Bible" Gospel of John on video. Its a dramatization of Jesus' ministry with  Henry Ian Cusick  (you may know him as Desmond from Lost ) cast as Jesus. He does a fantastic job. Its a must see.

I know about the Bilderberg group. Because you dismissed the corporate world domination theme, I assumed you doubted all world domination conspiracies.
1250  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The world is ruled by total of 147 large corporations on: October 24, 2011, 08:00:32 PM
Those are only public companies. They aren't accounting for a lot. This study hardly reaches a definite conclusion and certainly not one as ridiculous as the thought of these companies being at the top of the pyramid.

Only as ridiculous as the notion that if some evil individuals could successfully collaborate and conspire to control the world, they absolutely would do it.

Come on, is this really so hard to believe? Individuals attempting to conquer and rule the world is the most common theme throughout history. Its much easier to do today, and not a single shot has to be fired.

The Vatican is just releasing the plans of the NWO as a "suggestion" to get everyone acclimated to the idea of a global bank. There is no stopping it, it will happen.

PS: Will NWO let bitcoin flourish as a currency that gives power to the people? Over their dead bodies.

Lets be clear, the Vatican has about as much commitment to faith in God as Al Gore has to saving the earth.

Bitcoin is P2P.  It can't die.  It can drop in value, but unlike a company or central authority it can't go away.  I don't think they understand this.

They understand right well...  Its propaganda.  They're trying to drive a nail into the coffin.  Only problem, coffin is empty!

1257  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Media : Bitcoin is Done on: October 18, 2011, 07:18:00 PM
If people uninstall the client then it's done.

There's hardly a reason to uninstall it, bitterness is one.

For those who do uninstall it, they can still re-install it. Its not like bulldozing a bank, software is cool that way.

Bitcoin can't go away. Its impossible even if 75% of the user base uninstalled their clients.

I cashed out of mine-and-hold long ago because I recognized that bitcoin was overvalued and underutilized. But that's not a permanent thing. to me, bitcoin had little chance to grow when it was 5-20$ per coin. Now that it has settled down, i think its use is going to pick up due to new users who see the tremendous potential. Online poker is one way that could happen. I've personally made a bitcoin transaction in order to fund a merge network poker site just a few days ago. I believe Bitcoin will be back in a big way with online transactions. The price might stay flat for a long time, but price is not the point of bitcoin. Profiting in bitcoin is a bonus and has nothing to do with its usefulness.

I don't agree with schools teaching evolution as fact, when it is only theory. The evolution theory is based on assumptions which can't be proven.

What do you propose?  Roll Eyes

"There's nothing better."

Yup, that'll teach em. Evolution must be true.
