•How to deal with bullies? bullies at work not at school.

•Will I be mature and stay away or get another job what can I do? any suggestions?

•What will you do if your in this case?

Ive always found that bullies are that way partly because they've made a habit out of it, and get somewhat stuck in bullying. Its what they are used to and what people expect from them, so people generally aren't too nice, or willing to open up and talk to them either.
What I do is go out of my way to be nice to them. Sure, they might try to make fun of you for doing so, but you just go about your day. Do it a few times, and these people will have no choice but to reciprocate the action by being nice in turn.
The key to bullies in general tho really is:Do not react when they try to be an a-hole to you. They always do it for the reaction, and they choose the people they do because of the way they react to the bullying. Unfortunately, the people who don't react well usually don't have great social skills to start, so it perpetuates the bullying...
Overall though, its no fun to bully someone after they just did something nice for you. They might be able to do it a few times, but once a personal relationship is developed just by you doing a few nice things, it will dissipate. I promise that this technique works. Im in sales, and sales departments are very common spots for bullies to end up, so i have helped a LOT of people deal with workplace bullying. Its gonna feel weird at first doing nice things for them (I promise that too) BUT things will never change if you don't change your approach, and there are people like this everywhere so running wont work either.
I hope someone sees this who this will help, because i like to have fun and all that but i HATE seeing bullying honestly... It just always seems so one sided and unfair. Like you might have good social skills mr bully, but how well do you adult??? Do you pay your bills? Balance your checkbook? Do you know how to code? The people who get bullied just lack in social skills a lot of the time but they are probably way more advanced in other areas...

I think its just a username. What is your username if you don't mind me asking? Ill follow u up.

upr8 - it's going to be my product branding site, but Im just posting a few pictures and comments at the moment, while I work out how to use the site.

I had a bit of luck the other day, and I picked up SteemRewards.com for reg fee, and I'm thinking of making that a blog about my start in Steemit.



Nice. Good Domain name. You should make it a blog about ur exp like you said, but you could also make it like a marketing course or advice about how to maximize your earnings on Steem. You could start off just giving general free advice, and then could eventually have people pay to either take a course on Steemit markup, and steemit marketing, or to have you personally help them curate their steemit profile and posts....
You could really have something good going on there... Lemme know if you need or want any help. im all about creating ways to generate income online and that really is a good domain name. Good luck monsieur!

There may already be a thread for it... yada yada

I always see posts that are obviously just not translating well, and say some of the funniest things I see on here.

If you see any translations that didn't go as well as they intended... Post them here.

I'll start it off with one that gave me the idea:

Q: Is Google male or female?
A: Female, because it doesn't let you finish a sentence before making a suggestion.

This one is really amazing! and true! girls are really girls and they will react on the thing they want even you are not done explaining it.
they are just like Amazon that you will be dead in front of your friends if you did not let them do what they want.

28  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / MediaCoin is encrypting digital content to prevent data theft. on: March 08, 2018, 05:16:21 PM
The company behind the Quantum MediaCoin Token (QMCT and QMCTe), MediaCoin, has developed a way to transfer digital content to end users using AES encryption with the delivery of the encryption key being done through a users wallet. This makes it impossible to steal the content without first purchasing the "song" or key. Once the music is played, the file becomes encrypted once more and another purchase is required to view the content. The only way to steal the content at that point is through hardware, not through any available software.
MediaCoin is a software dev company who specializes in encryption, who chose music as their first pet project. Artists have been asking for a secure way to distribute content for about a decade now, and MediaCoin will put them back in the drivers seat.
Having to pay for music is going to piss a lot of people off, but when digital content came out it ruined the economics of music. Now that the content cant just be stolen by the masses, it should start righting the ship.
A few people have asked me "why would people just start paying for music and use that platform?" I always just respond that MediaCoin could care less if people want to pay for music. Its a product and it shouldn't be free in the first place, but it was because it was so easy to steal. Artists will be the one who will be trusting the platform first, then their fans will follow.
There's a common saying "if you build it, they will come" and MediaCoin plans on not being an exception to this rule with the help of the great artists out there. Once the content is there, listeners will follow.
Let me know what you think about this. Personally I am thankful for the free music while it lasted, but we all had to know we couldn't just steal shit forever and not have it end....

I think excessive use of quotes should be punished. People don't even bother to remove all previous quotes and just make a whole thread hardly readable. Need to send this person to Read-only, for a week, so he'll miss stakes for that particular week. That might send a message to the user, 5 warnings in a row could lead to the permanent ban.

First actionable post in the thread. I like this one. Placing someone on a read only ban will financially incentivise the signature campaign runnin-shitposters of the world to knock it off regardless of what a bounty manager's enticing them with (to an extent) and it will be more of a risk to run around shitposting and quoting everything that pops in their head.
Even just placing them back at newbie or jr member status for a few weeks or so would do the trick.
Oh or taking merit for violations of some sort... Ive always thought that would be a good punishment system. Just take the existing reward system and integrate a disciplinary system into it.
30  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Restoring Order to the Online Content Distribution Industry on: March 07, 2018, 06:13:06 PM
Hey Garrett,
Thanks for all your hard work!
 Digital music ruined the music economy when distributors didn't protect their content. CD's and Records were stolen and copied of course, but not at a mass scale like today. Artists have asked distributors to protect their content, but the technology was never there.
MediaCoin is going to change the music industry for the better, and putting artists back in the driving seat is just the beginning. Anyone versed in the economics of technology will tell you that if someone fixed the secure data transmission problem they would make a LOT of money. MediaCoin can fix that problem, and we want EVERYONE to benefit.

A good project after visiting this site is very interested in Crytpocurrency to securely publish great audio, video and streaming media everyone will love it.

Thank you for the comment. We think we have created a win-win-win situation for everyone involved. With digital security technology advancing naturally, music was never going to stay free forever. We are putting the artists back in the driving seat when it comes to releasing their music online.
32  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Bounties (Altcoins) / [ANN][Bounty] Ad-Free Encrypted Content Distribution Platform [MediaCoin] on: March 05, 2018, 10:53:01 PM
The Music Industries First Ad-Free Encrypted Digital Content Distribution Platform- Join the MediaCoin Bounty Program Today!

Bounty Program Dates: 03/5/2018 through 4/10/2018


MediaCoin Bounty Program information available here:  https://bounty.mediacoin.stream/

Visit our website, and read our whitepaper here:  https://mediacoin.stream/

MediaCoin:
Software developer specializing in encrypted content delivery. Using AES encryption on both client and server, combined with the use of a wallet's private key, MediaCoin has developed a platform that will allow artists to distribute their content digitally without the possibility of piracy.

Quantum MediaCoin Token (QMCT or QMCTe):
QMCT and QMCTe will be the token used across the MediaCoin Platform to purchase audio and video files on a pay-per-play, or per session basis.

Artists will choose the rate to view the content per session, or per play, and 100% of the revenue generated from the sales of the content will go directly to the artist's network. We believe that artists should be able to choose how much or how little should be required to view their content.

The Problem
The Music Industry has failed to provide an adequate compensation for the time and talent artists put into making their content, and failed to simply keep that content from being stolen.

In the United States alone, $2.7 BILLION in revenue is lost annually due to content piracy.Digital content theft has become a plague for artists.

The Solution
Using AES encryption methods combined with the delivery of encryption keys to wallet addresses, we have made this possible. This encryption technique uses blockchain technology to revolutionize the way we deliver data today.

To show the capabilities of our software we are starting with the MediaCoin Platform, our plans do not end there. Within 6 months we plan moving toward assisting medical facilities with HIPAA compliance, E-learning and E-campus for schools, and secure live streaming of sporting and entertainment events.

Finally this technology will allow us to become a Meta ISP, and using MVNO cell data, a mobile Virtual Network Operator. For more information, Please read our whitepaper at https://mediacoin.stream/

MediaCoin is running a bounty program prior to and during the launch of the MediaCoin Platform to promote use of the platform, and reach more artists who would like to place their content on the platform.
The information on the bounty program is available here:http://bounty.mediacoin.stream/

People always say "you are the company that you keep," "You are the 5 people you associate with most" and yada yada yada..
So we all know, we need good people in our life. I get that and agree 100%..
Problem is that I don't have a lot of prospects right now (Im kinda over the whole "hanging out with a bunch of losers because you know them from high school" thing) and I've been totally out of the bro acquisition game for like a decade...

How do you bros go about getting some new dudes to kick it with that will help you move forward in life?

Well at least you make a topic for everyone to discuss, don't ask everyone to open a topic, you open one so everybody could shout out their answers.

You have 7 posts.... how are you already so bitter about topics? I get u were commending me on doing it right, I just thought that was funny.

So Ive been listening to the podcast "pardon my take" by big kat and PMT Commenter (and hank) since it came out, and they have started to mention bitcoin multiple times in all their episodes... Are there any other award winning listeners here on BitcoinTalk?? I'm just curious because we could... discuss...
37  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Any Newbies on here have a steemit account? on: March 03, 2018, 03:10:08 PM
I'm a newbie to Steemit. My account was approved yesterday, so I haven't had a chance to do anything yet.

I plan to use it to brand a new range of products, and I have never done this before. The brand name is upr8, and I own the .com. I won't have any stock, and I won't charge for any products, the idea is to create your own product from everyday items that you already have, or you can get for nothing. For example -

upr8 healthy gums. Gum disease is painful and can lead to loss of teeth. Current remedies are based on the use of antibiotics, which affects the whole body and can damage the immune system. upr8 healthy gums goes straight to the problem, and just treats the damaged area. This minimises any risk of side effects. The treatment is simple, just add a bit of sea salt to some warm water, and rinse the mouth twice a day. This kills the bacteria that causes most gum disease. It can be used as a prevention as well as a cure.

I'm looking at video editing software that I can use on a notebook ( core i5 at the moment ), so any tips about this would be really helpful.



I like it, because information is free nowdays to anyone with a decent internet connection, so the one way to still provide a service around information is to disseminate it, and organize it which it sounds like is what you are doing. you should create subsections tho IMO. Like upr8.com/remedy and upr8.com/rx
If you are going the natural route, mindfulness and meditation is a huge topic right now that can generate a lot of traffic, and I think the name upr8 kind of lends it'sself to that. I also just like the look of the "upr8" It would look good on apparel like jackets, hats, and mugs. If you need any promotional stuff eventually or marketing help hit me up with a message. My family owns and operates a promotional product distributor.
Ill keep an eye out for ya tho!
38  Other / Off-topic / Re: How to lose weight? on: March 02, 2018, 10:25:08 PM
Its really more about diet than exercise. Ive lost 30 lbs now, and I went to the gym when i started losing for 6 months without losing a single pound. I was running hard every day and lifting weight. I didnt know better. After 6 months tho i got a little fed up with that and actually decided to stop eating garbage. I immediately started cutting weight.

One thing i realized is that it does depend on your bodytype, but carbs are the devil for most people. They convert into energy, but in a really inefficient way and then excess gets stored as fat. carbs are like all the breads and grains you eat. I REALLY started cutting weight fast when i took out almost all the carbs, and got a LOT of protein and fat. Like you can still have eggs and bacon in the morning but no toast and no hash browns....

Lastly, i recommend eating a small breakfast that just barely gets you by, but eat something in the morning low in carbs. it sets your metabolism for the day, so if you can cool it in the morning you will be much less hungry thru the day.

No matter what tho, if u focus on LOSING weight, it will always come back so you can start the LOSING process again. if you want to keep it off, you have to decide a new lifestyle and way of eating and be able to live with it. if ur losing weight and dieting, the moment that diet is over you will go back to what you know because you never changed, you just did a diet.

I really hope that helps because in order to get your weight under control you have to get your food under control. no chemical or surgery can work as well as a good diet. ever.

Hey Guys I really like the Steemit network. Ive always felt that there should be some sort of compensation system built into likes, and shares and all that stuff. I am interested in finding other people that have and write original content on steemit because i want to see what they have to say. So i dont really want a bunch of re-posters, i want to read blogs people on here have written.
 
Also, what are your thoughts on Steemit? Do you think it has some fatal flaw?

The social media that is more commonly used is being monitored and censored more and more, and quality content has no choice but to adapt to the new networks. I feel like any real information that will come out in the future will do so on platforms like dtube and steemit.
What do you think? Do you still trust what you see on FB and Twitter?

I'd love to hear what you all think.
