Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Long, sordid & convoluted tale. At the time, *everyone* was doing it, everyone wanted it to be done to them, and anyone daring to point out the obvious was the enemy of the state. Those who didn't buy HashFast miners invested in Neo&Bee, or ActiveMining, or LabCoin, or any number of lucrative investment opportunities. Their money was as good as gone, only a question of who ended up with it.
Can we really blame Cypher for capitalizing on the situation?
Yeah, I raged a bit -- turns out I was the idiot warning gay masochists about impending assrape.
Feel foolish, man Sad

Sure, but you're like a broken clock.

Did you warn me about Luke-Jr and his BFL shilling?

That could have been useful.

Do we hate him as well? I forget.

had to come back just to lol Smiley

Did you buy this account? I'm sure after the HashFast theft and especially fucking over a dev like Greg Maxwell the real cypherdoc would never show up around here again. Or are you just so addicted to posting here that you have to do it even if everyone here thinks you're a thief?

IIRC everyone agrees that he had to be completely informed about every intricate detail of HF's financial state because he got paid at the same time as he communicated to the community that people would get full refunds. Is that right?

Doesn't that say more about the beauty and wonder of hindsight?

To me it looks like a regular bankruptcy. He was lucky and didn't lose money. He could have returned the BTCs to the estate, but I doubt the customers would have seen any of that money anyway.

Would be pretty stupid to set off anything now

Now there you go.  You've said something I agree with.

Like many others, I expect ongoing accumulation and an August dump.  What does that tell you?

Hey, I told you back in February I'd keep doing stupid monkey jokes until I got a : = "LOL" !!!

That hasn't happened, so I'm forced to make bad jokes every time you spank your monkey in public (*giggle*).

In other words, there's no one to blame but yourself... and everyone else than me.

With regards to the price. I have several no ideas what that's supposed to tell me. I don't know if you're following strict TA, what phase you think we're in, or if you're factoring in the block reward halving.

Short term I fear that a lack of upwards momentum will lead to a collapse in finex swaps sometime January, but I'm optimistic and hope to sell at $4400 around March. Maybe April.

The most mind-blowing "co-incidence" in the sky, is the moon itself.

It is too massive to be caught in the earth's orbit while also being so far away. Yet it is located at exactly the same distance required so that its diameter (as seen from earth) will be the exact same diameter as the sun's, creating phenomena like the full eclipses. As far as I know, this is unheard of in the entire known universe.

The chance of the moon being ~400 times closer than the sun, but also being ~400 times smaller, to produce the full eclipse phenomenon, is ridiculously low (and if you factor the size of the moon and distance of its orbit, it becomes ...impossible).

NASA has this to say:

http://spaceplace.nasa.gov/review/dr-marc-earth/moon-general.html

"The Moon's size and distance contribute to a wonderful coincidence for those of us who live here on Earth. The Moon is about 400 times smaller than the Sun, but it also just happens to be about 400 times closer. The result is that from Earth, they appear to be the same size. And when its orbit around Earth takes the Moon directly between Earth and the Sun, the Moon blocks our view of the Sun in what we call a solar eclipse. "

"wonderful coincidence"  Cheesy
"just happens"....  Grin

Yeah I mean, it just happened man. Just a coincidence. Sure thing.

et tu...

Is there a point to distiguishing between different brands of lunatics?

What I mean is, that site doesn't seem to be bothered with scientific rigour. It's just a collection of "facts" with varying degree of relevance or seriousness which is supposed to paint a complete picture in the mind of the reader without any attempt to provide consistency.

What are you hoping to get? A "peer reviewed" and published mainstream science article?  Grin

Yes, please.

If you're too lazy to think for yourself then I cannot help you. Perhaps Admiral Byrd is reputable enough for you to take these theories seriously, if you insist on some authority telling you what's what.

Admiral Richard E Byrd - Hollow Earth Video Interview

As for different brands of lunatics, if you're the guy who would like to call the author of that hollow earth blog a lunatic, then I have no respect for you. The guy is igniting thought and explaining how it is plausible for the planets to form as hollow. You call open-mindedness lunacy? If you're not joking, you have serious problems with your expectation bias which forces you to think inside a really cramped box.

In situations like this I always like to provide a link to the following video:
NASA PROVES HOLLOW EARTH THEORY... PROOF EVIDENCE EARTH IS HOLLOW

Although the title of the video is a bit of an exaggeration, if this doesn't open your mind for the possibility of hollow planets, nothing will.

There's a difference between independent thought and complete and utter detachment from reality.

As is perfectly exemplified here:

I don't believe in a magma filled ball Earth theory either. It simply has too many holes in it. When was the last time Copernicus'es model was proven with a physics experiment?
Every day I do research, in fact. I am an astrophysicist, and in my area of research we regularly have to exactly model the positions of all solar system bodies.

Let me tell you something about science: we do not all conspire together. In fact, science is a free for all. We are all (underpaid) competitors, dying to make a name for ourselves. If someone can show that the entire scientific consensus is wrong, such a person would gain eternal fame. The thing is, you have to do it convincingly. Most people who think they have overthrown the entire scientific consensus, and who are subsequently being ignored, usually just have not shown what they are conjecturing (and usually they are, indeed, wrong). If you think we would all conspire together, you are completely misunderstanding how this world works.
Just because you are an astrophysicist doesn't mean you know anything about the shape of the Earth. You observe the stars, right? Not Earth -- stars. So how can you tell such a story? It's just a bunch of assumptions. If you truly were a proper scientist you would understand that. You don't know how the universe operates, stop making dumb assumptions.

You see what's happening to Europe due to sandnigger wererefugees swarming the whole place due to the activities of ISIS. They're destroying the Europe.

@BMB You're right. This well is too deep.

Edit:

@Hyena I've been in a plane. The sun was above me all the time.

I would recommend you browse this blog for more answers regarding the hollow earth theory:

It is written by a scientifically minded person rather than by some religious lunatic.

Conspicuously missing from the Blockstream roadmap are any specifics such as:

At X time, the block size limit will be increased by Y amount

When X% of blocks are full, the limit will be raised by Y amount

At X difficulty level, X transaction fee level, X number of nodes, etc...

Simple: there is no plan to increase the block size through a hard fork anytime soon seeing as there is no valid reasons to do so.

Fork off if that doesn't make you happy.

Why don't you, small blockers, fork off? Most people want raised block size...most people = bitcoin...if you don't hear the community, YOU FORK OFF

 Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

the community is not represented by loud mouths on twitter and reddit you chump

if you don't like Bitcoin as it is, YOU fork off.

Nobody likes Bitcoin as it is. That's why everyone is screaming for more and better developers.

Seriously, if you want Bitcoin as it is you'll have to do a MaggieCoin fork where you arrest its development and take the rest of your inbred sect with you.

GMaxwell can be your leader.


Instead of coming up with an adequate response I'll just edit your post and write some nonsense.

I know. I'm a fucking loser.


Sorry to hear that.

But don't be too hard on yourself. Life can throw you a curveball from time to time. It's not the end of the world.

http://www.smarterthanthat.com/astronomy/top-10-ways-to-know-the-earth-is-not-flat/

I saw a hyena once. They're much bigger than I thought they were.

Oh, just curious. How do you explain the Northern and Southern lights (Aurora Borealis and Aurora Australis)?

The sticks and shadows experiment was the only point I found interesting from that link. Is it really possible to calculate the circumference of the Earth like that? If so then it definitely kicks a hole into the flat earth theory. It doesn't puncture the concave earth theory though.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eratosthenes#Measurement_of_the_Earth.27s_circumference

It's an old method and quite accurate.

But unfortunately, many of the other ways listed there were crap. The webpage even lists some of the stuff that is used to prove that the Earth is not convex. So it's laughable. For example, ships that have disappeared behind the horizon are still visible with a telescope, NASA photos are fake, centre of gravity could very well be in the middle of the hollow earth's crust not in the centre of the planet.

Since I think flat earth theory is weaker than the concave earth theory, hollow earth theory and expanding earth theory, I would not bother to explain some northern and southern lights thing. I'm not a flat earth believer anyway. I'm just an opponent of the Copernican system.

The reason I ask about the Northern and Southern lights is because in conventional physics it is believed that these phenomena are the result of the interplay between the Earths EM field and massive particles slung out from the sun. It is quite well understood and basically means that you can use solar "weather forecasts" (since light moves faster than particles with mass) to tell you if/when there will be northern/southern lights appearing. But in order for this to be true, something needs to create the EM field. A spinning liquid metal core; which doesn't fit well with your hollow earth assumption.

And if that confederate flag waving hick, BJA, wants to cash out and make his life more comfortable for himself and his confederate flag waving children, I think he should be allowed to do so in his own time.

Is Gavin the leader of the confederacy since he tried to secede from the union?

And why are you on a Bitcoin forum in the first place if you're always promoting leftist ideals and now anti-confederacy when the confederacy was the original libertarians of this government?

Because I see Bitcoin as an important and exciting technology rather than the second coming for right wing nutters.

Leftist extremism is not the future.  We've already reached peak leftism, peak government, peak collectivism, peak feminism, etc.  You can only go down from here in your SJW ideology.  If anything, we will return back to the culture of the 1800's and early 1900's after all this garbage collapses.

It's always funny how people advocating these bullshit ideologies don't even know Hitler and Stalin are both technically leftists.  Anarchy is far right and peak government authoritarianism is far left.  It's funny you refer to the "far right" as nutters when leftist collectivism is inherently pro slavery.  One man's free stuff is another man's indentured servitude.

It makes no sense to argue politics with you when you're in denial of your own political conviction. Your stance seems completely in line with racist fascism. The fact that you're hiding behind your PC idea of right wing anarchy is just pathetic. Any true classical liberalist would vomit at the thought of you being counted among them.

You're a Marxist-collectivist and use the normal leftist tactic of trying to force your ideology onto everyone then claiming they're a "bad person", "racist", "sexist", blah blah if they don't want to join your collectivist nightmare that's already resulted in the deaths of millions from your last Bolshevik revolution.

Nobody wants to join your SJW bullshit that demonizes males, anyone who isn't poor, white people, etc, the usual common targets.  You have a mental disorder called far leftism where you were dumped into too many trashcans by stronger kids while growing up, so now you can only relate to people deemed underdogs by society and shun anything considered strong or normal.  It's a mental disorder plain and simple.  Stop trying to pretend you're normal and people should adhere to your disorder.

If you are a lambie long-con consider me impressed.

Who's attempting to stop him from doing what he wants regarding his BTC holdings.  He seems to be handling himself just fine in the conversation, no?



Sometimes, when you see someone facing an insurmountable task, you step up without being asked.

In some circles, that would be classified as "white knighting," no?   but whatever floats your boat.  If you think, BJA needs your assistance, then surely that's your choice.

Other circles again would just call it trolling, but that's why I like this place.
