....As I've said countless times here, uniform application of gun control is necessary.

I don't consider myself and expert on this idea but wouldn't Iceland be perfect for mass adoption of Bitcoin?  Think about it.

1. Dirt cheap electricity for mining(geothermal power).
2. Cold weather to keep mining processors cool.
3. Strategically positioned between Europe and North America for network connections/servers and so forth.  I think they're building servers in Iceland for other reasons as well. 
4. Populace is well educated compared to most developed countries as they don't have much else to do except read a lot.
5. They hate banks!

What do you think?

And how are we going to kick the NSA's ass?

First a state does not have to kill people to exist, its only in your little confused world, that it is a necessary property of a state.


Im not against murder/killing people in general, im against the state murdering its OWN citizens.

Im pro-self-survival, and im okay killing for it, or joining a larger group of people(a state) to ensure my survival.

Libertards/NAP people are also not against murder, they will also do it in self defense. Else they would not be NAP, they would be pacifists.
Libertards are pro-murder.

So they can work on normal computers, and don't need a RPi?  They just need some drivers written.  Glad we sorted that one out then. 

Hi there,

There is a novella by my personal favorite author, Vernor Vinge, called The Ungoverned and I think the libertarians here would enjoy reading it. Later on, The Peace War expands on such ideas. Has anyone read those? I would be interested to hear any comments on how viable the system, presented in the books is, according to you. One of my major beefs with Vinge's libertarian society is that he automatically assumes that it would breed innovation in technology which would surpass that of the nation states with their top-down organized labs and factories.

Greets,
M

What do you think about that:

Thats what I was going to go with. I just want to see if anybody else did it on a new blade first...I don't want to be the guinea pig 

Really? You do not have porn on TV in the US? Not even a "nipple"? I hope you are joking. Do you really need to have cable to watch Playboy channel, which is mostly softcore at least in Europe?

We have hardcore porn on TV on weekends night in Europe since the '80s, in some countries since the '70s. I knew the US was fucked up, but I didn't know it was SO bad.

Derailing the thread here, but a quick observation. Isn't it perverse that every night on TV I can see a brutal murder followed by a grotesque autopsy. They might be burned to death or beheaded, etc. But, show a nipple on TV and it's pornography!!! Someone must go to jail and be punished for this. That seems very sick to me.

"When Will The Economy Collapse?"

My estimate going back to the mid 2000's was 2012.  I was wrong.

So I thought I had it!   I decided to follow your advice and sign up on slushs pool.    I don't mind where I mining so long as I am mining and amazingly on Ports 8332 My blades look like they are working perfectly!  I am getting nearly 13000Mhash from each one and they are showing correct numbers/shares and high efficiency Yay!

BUT... in 8 hours of straight mining the pool is showing my average 10block hashrate at 0.0, and I have no rewards given...?!   It does estimate what my reward per-block would be, but in 8 hours I have no confirmed rewards of anykind

What the hell is this now?

.
You wouldn't be able to guess that looking at America now. It is way more sexually repressed than most of Europe. So, compare the sexually repressed America to the much more sexually liberal Europe, and you'll clearly see that more repression here has resulted in more sexual problems.........

Simply put, talking about banning guns, increases gun sales.
You are talking about assault weapon bans.
Therefore you are contributing to increased gun sales by this activity,
and so this is contrary to your stated goal of reducing guns in your population.

...

Consider instead, advocating something that might reduce the desire for gun ownership, you mentioned the poverty issue, might that be an example?  I work with a number of charities (none of whom advocate guns and all which seek non-violent resolutions and health and well being).

More fundamentally, the use of THE LAW against others ought not be the first place one goes to resolve an issue.  Think of THE LAW as a gun, that is what backs it.  When you propose these laws, these bans, you are proposing using guns against your fellow country people in the mistaken belief that the end will justify the means, but the result is that you are going further from your own desired end.  The effort is ill-conceived, and it not only results in a worse circumstance, it does exactly what you are hoping to avoid, the use of guns to accomplish something.

Instead seek to obsolete the need for weapons, it is not only time better spent for you, the incremental steps are each rewarding such as helping the homeless and unfortunate, abused women or other charitable work.

That would depend on a number of circumstances, largely where I was residing and the type of work I was doing.  It would be no different than asserting "if you had no chainsaw, you'd obviously want a chainsaw really bad."

Meanwhile you think you look smart by avoiding difficult questions (Hint: You don't.)

Why don't you answer the question?


Now do you accept that if your attitude held sway, other people being beaten, robbed, maimed and or shot is your responsibility?

Keep in mind that many of the victims are poor, female or elderly, and a gun is what protects them from vicious criminals, who may NOT HAVE A GUN

.....
I was able to determine this was a problem by testing with both USB2.0 powered hubs and USB3.0 powered hubs.

Try replacing your hub with a USB3.0 hub. The worst case scenario is that you send the hub back to Amazon with free shipping because it didn't fix the problem. On the other hand, if it does fix your problem you've only lost the cost or opportunity.

.... It makes no sense to claim that the methods will be compromised by a full transcript release given that the government has already made it known that they (or someone) can do the intercepts.  Likely the big problem here is that it is not going to go over well if it is know that edited (if not invented) material, probably from Mossad, is being stove-piped directly to the executive branch.  Again.

I think you should keep in mind that you're projecting your own wants onto the poverty class in general. Why don't you just blatantly admit that it's you who wants a gun?

........

I don't go around thinking I will be protected from dangerous criminals by the government.

Yes, and the "wanting of guns" is increased by the notion that a unified/federal restriction is advocated.  You are generating demand and creating gun buyers.  It is not your intended consequence, it is your unintended consequence.  It is also the single largest factor in gun sales growth.  You are responsible for more gun buying than I am.
