Dejavu here.. smooth vs shelby like a year ago  Cheesy
Not the first time i looked at Dino wondering which Monero shill he was either LOL

@Shelby
Shit man contact theymos and ask him nicely if he could change your name  Cheesy

I am posting to say the usual suspects here are as usual talking over our heads.
And possibly veering off-topic.
Both are very smart guys for sure.. but i have already reminded them the crowd here needs to absorb what they are saying.
At this point i see another public conversation between two guys going down the rabbit hole.
Crypto seems to attract a certain type.

I am more interested in context & consensus vs what i have for ideology.
I would like life to be different to but i am focused on being practical.. are you all ?

At the end of the day Altcoins are non existent and have no meaning until i come back here to this bubble.
Where users chant "free market" and "no laws" so they can profit off the lawless situation.
So tell me optimists does that over-view of the situation make you think things will be getting better or worse ?

It's a never ending babble fest about hypothetical things with a dash of conspiracy LOL
Everyone knows the worlds financial system is corrupt but is it run by a cabal over mighty over lords like the NWO Illuminati ?

As usual we seem to be relying on possible disruptive tech to unseat the powers that be.
That is not enough.
Is there going to be a spark ? ETF ? i dunno..
Will there be a "Phase shift" like scientists have said could happen with the universe ? Maybe.
https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=universe+phase+shift
I seen a guy on TV explain it with a glass of water..
He started to freeze it then when it got close temp wise he shook the glass and it quickly crystallized the contents.
So the concept is pretty solid ..no pun intended Wink

Topic ?
I dunno i guess i am highlighting back the personalities here.
Why are we here doing this.. and to me what i have seen as the issue is.
The majority in control steering the crypto scene.
A handful of visionaries can sway the scene ?
Bitcoin did just that actually.. so who knows.
2102  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: For the love of god think twice before buying! Newcomers please read. on: February 22, 2017, 06:06:20 AM
Its pretty obvious that everybody wants to make money and be rich or at least be above average money wise which opens the door to the people who prey on the weak.

In a token game where no value is produced (like in a factory say), the only way to "make money" is to rip off someone else.  Token games like crypto currencies are zero-sum games.  What A wins, B loses.  There wouldn't be winners if there weren't just as many losers.

You may say: "no, with bitcoin, many people made money !"  This is not true.  All the (fiat) money made by some people has been paid by others.  Those buying bitcoin now at these prices finance the benefits of all those that bought lower and are selling it now, and the only hope you have is to sell those same coins to people at even higher prices.
It is pretty obvious that this cannot go on for ever.  You will not be able to find greater fools forever.  One day it will have to stop growing.  At $2000, at $10 000, at $100 000, I don't know.  But one day it will be evident that it will not be able to grow any more.  The last layer of buyers had then financed about all benefit that people made, and there's no hope for them to make a single dime any more.  So what's going to happen then ?

What is going to happen to a stash of bitcoin of which you KNOW that it cannot rise ?  How many years are you going to keep it ?

What is like a pyramid is the amount of winners vs losers.
You are quoted saying they are equal basically.. that is not possible mathematically.
A large gain is directly sourced from the loss of MANY.
And it is like a pyramid because all of these coins have a handful of BIG winners which are rare.

And the OP here was referring to a growing type of coin.. the MLM scam coin i think.
But it is not just that.. most coins have elements of an MLM coin scam.
You don't need to have all the boxes checked for it to be scammy.

Problem is people don't care.
It's like buying a lottery ticket for some big 50 million dollar draw.. they all know there is no chance at winning but buy into it anyway.
And users here in the Altcoin seen don't care about a coin being scammy.
All they care about is the prospects of getting in and back out again before the Pyramid collapses on them personally.
Which is tied to what coins are attractive here or not.
All the users simply gauge the amount of risk it will be for them buying into the scheme.

In reality the majority do not have any interest in what is scammy.
They really only care about whether that trade symbol on Poloniex will give them ROI'z.
So preaching to them is rather pointless.
If you point out a scam with lots of victims it will probably just attract more.. like an advertisement.
2103  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [POLL] Are You losing Interest ? on: February 22, 2017, 05:50:57 AM
Not sure who i am replying to here..
But i thought of this reading the last batch of replies.
And talking is encouraging no matter what stance you all have.
THIS = Coindesk - Why We Need All The Altcoins We Can Get

Well..
That is fine & dandy but do we need 1,000 copies of Doge coin all with a different icon / graphics meme associated with it and then have the govt compliant exchanges all add them based on user-demand ?

Like we have never seen such a lawless corrupt heap of bullshit like this in modern times.
I can't think of anything else like this Altcoin stuff that existed before.. that was LAWLESS !
So i keep seeing people pushing the angle here that crypto is about DEFENDING "no laws"
It didn't exist in the first place.. everything has laws.
What happened is the law systems just didn't keep up with this stuff and they were caught off guard.
I don't see Altcoins as an inherently lawless thing that needs to be defended with "freedom to scam"
Crimes were already crimes before this crap was invented.

The idea that Altcoins can remain unregulated / lawless is silly bullshit.
The various pre-existing financial laws that existed before that partially covers crypto in general..

I am saying many of you have this stance on it all that this SHOULD be lawless.
Users such as Dino or Shelby etc chant about the man keeping us down..
They are not trying to screw over the population they are trying to make things better for the public etc.
AML laws were invented to stop good people from honest "investments" ?

Are crypto coins simply about defying law now ?
I did not join crypto to join the rebel crowd here who are after bringing down the govt ..for profit.

2105  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Don't sprinkle cheese on me & call me a Pizza! on: February 21, 2017, 11:24:10 PM
@Shelby
Yeah pretty much agreed.

@Pharmcacist
I agree too and i seen a topic in "Off-Topic" that mentioned there was over 50,000 unconfirmed TX's with BTC.
I thought it was bad in 2013 LOL
Hopefully it will get dealt with and fixed up.. and soon before BTC turns 10 years old. (not that far away)

I have always said i am not against making money.
I am against making money of things that are not constructive.
Admitting to making money off coins you shouldn't has a negative cumulative effect.

Whether i am here in the crypto scene participating or not i do wish the scene well.
It gets a bit old having everyone say "why do you hate altcoins ?"
When all i try and say is i hate the bad ones..

@Shelby
I hope that does happen.
I hope the dumb money gets taken etc.
And i think it will too because there has to be an ever increasing amount of losers to sustain the system.
It's basic simple math.. not everyone can be winners and if you keep gambling ?

Makes me think of Pascal Coin.
What was the point ? Really.. seriously what is the point in rewriting a coin in a new language ?
I think with Pascal the guy failed and decided to make it sort of work then decided to market that as being creative. LOL
It's not like he said i wanted XYZ feature and it was pascal that was NEEDED to fulfill this goal.
If you are astute you can see what the guy was doing.

I dunno.. all i know is it's not a pizza until it comes out of the oven !
2106  Other / Off-topic / Re: Help please, Win10 audio stops on: February 21, 2017, 11:10:47 PM
First thing i said was check your event viewer.. there may be a clear answer there for you.

So it happens in your browser only ? All browsers ?

And that tweaker won't do anything unless you click on the options.
It has no installer to so there is no way to install or uninstall it.
So i am not sure how you "uninstalled" it.

My point was that i do things different and not so much that you should.
If you are not an advanced user doing advanced stuff may not be a good idea.

If you DO in fact have a Realtek audio chipset (integrated on motherboard)
You might have better luck using the driver from Realtek's web site and not the default Microsoft one
Why that might be helpful is if your audio setup is screwed up the process of changing drivers might help.
It would basically reset how it is.
So it 's not so much a 1 don't work and the other does thing.

I am curious how many tabs you might have open all with an audio feed on them too.
Most of the time i have Firefox running and i try not to open to many tabs especially at places like Youtube etc.
Anyway it could be lots of things.. check that event viewer and go from there.
Poke around to see if there is any messages related to audio or maybe your browser etc.
That is why the event viewer is there.

To get help you should post more info too.
What soundcard or sound chip do you have ?
What type of audio setup is it ?
Digital / Analog HDMI ?
2107  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [POLL] Are You losing Interest ? on: February 21, 2017, 06:54:00 PM
Those examples of currencies earlier are.. not currencies.
People just sit around and think of new gimmicks to tack onto a block-chain then ICO it.
So your definition of currency and innovation people is well, fucked up LOL

And may i remind you that if you are here bashing "Shitcoins" profiting off them then you are the shitcoin maker and just as bad.. i have been saying that since 2013 LOUD.
What does that mean ? This shit gets worse.. and worse.

I appreciate the optimism but i think it's slanted and skewed.

2109  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [POLL] Are You losing Interest ? on: February 21, 2017, 12:28:05 PM
I am not losing interest because of profits.
I have for a long time because crypto stuff Altcoins etc have no meaning to my real life.
When i leave my computer it has no effect on my life at all.
I see and hear nothing about it until i deliberately come back here.
So i can read a million topics on what coin we all should jump to now for.. profits.

Maybe i could believe in the whole "one day" thing if there was real progress made.
But when i leave my PC there is no sign of Altcoins anywhere.
Best i can tell the prospects of that ever happening keeps getting worse.
What ? Should i cling to the hope some ANON coin gets heavy Dark Market usage ?
Why should i care ? It's *NOT like i plan on buying guns & crack on silk road.
And since the whole little profiteer bullshit bores me what the fuck am i left with ?

I'd say the Poll results should tell me how many people there are here like me.
People who seem genuinely concerned about adoption etc.

If all this has amounted to nothing but a massive pyramid scheme of coin hopping for ROI's.
Then i just can't be bothered.. sorry and good luck (you are going to need it with looming legal issues)
2110  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / [POLL] Are You losing Interest ? on: February 21, 2017, 10:13:00 AM
A poll so vote Wink

It's been a LONG time coming but i have lost almost all interest in Altcoins (and even Bitcoin)
Don't be surprised if i end up wandering off at some point people.

The thing is i have stopped trading for profit probably 2 years ago roughly.
I also quit looking at the ANN section around the same time.
I quit paying attention to the tech behind coins too.

I wouldn't call this a farewell topic but in a way i'm already gone.
At this point how the world of Altcoins has evolved has left me behind.
(for example) The emergence of ICO's is not something i want any part of.

The days of new coins like Prime Coin or Grid Coin coming out seem to be gone.
Sure there is different coins out but i don't see them as pushing in the right direction.

So what's left for me in crypto ?
A whole lot of FUD and Altcoin history lessons for Noobs ?
I'd say that is covered here by others LOL

It is what it is.
If there is some coin i criticize a lot (not naming names) others will do it too anyway.
Because what you see is what you get.. it's all there right in the open.

I've known my energy has been wasted here for the most part for a LONG time.
I have in time felt less motivated to keep posting here on the forum about Altcoins.
Exposing scams ? Well there is too many to keep up with and a lot of people don't care either.
They don't care because they are hell bent on showing up here to make Altcoin ROI's
..off anything that pays !

And help make a new better coin ?
I've had idea but no matter what i also see a bad way to exploit the coin too.
I have not seen or thought of a new coin system that would not be gamed / exploited like all the others.

So..
Anyone else feel the same way (i expect the noobs to chant optimism of course)

Special Note:
The Ethereum's and Monero's that have been a favorite of mine to "FUD" as you call it..
Will succeed or fail all on their own.
I have criticized (FUD'd) projects because i felt they deserved it.
If anything i hope they learned a lesson and were listening.
Take the criticism and use it to your advantage and move forward in a constructive direction.

Yup it's another long rant and Poll from Spoetnik Wink
There won't be many more i think.

Nope not a self-modded topic either.. say what ever the hell you want  Grin



EDIT:

The bottom line is it hit me Altcoins have no relation to my real actual life.
And i don't see that changing any time soon either.
2111  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [WARNING] Ex-Dash fan turned realist. Why Dash is a house of cards. on: February 20, 2017, 10:55:42 PM
The Kool-Aid commentary coming up from the Monero shill's is a rip-off from them being called cult lunatics.. they were called cult wacko's first and liked it so started using it in defense.

Which is par for the course.. you will notice they have a pattern of doing that.

And cryptohunter i was clearly not advocating either coin.
I was simply saying i doubt most people in this grand Dash vs Monero saga care about a coin being scammy.
They care far more about which one will give them profits..

So i was speaking to them saying had they chose the other one they would be sitting on a large profit me thinks Wink

Really i don't see why the Monero guys have to worry so much about Dash if they are superior like they claim.
I guess it's a competition thing going on here for 2 years with a battle of public perception.
For what ?
If the Monero lunatics spent as much time here slinging bullshit on the forum as they did adoption maybe their coin would be successful and they would not be so bitter.
Seems to me they are angry and jealous over Dash and are simply lashing out like children.

It's rather unbecoming and no sir i don't like it ..i don't like it one bit  Angry
2112  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: THE RISE AND RISE OF MONERO on: February 20, 2017, 10:32:14 PM

And it's painfully obvious when you guys are soooooooo desperate for a topic to go away.
Your screwed if you do and screwed if you don't basically.
That is the problem with being WRONG hahhahahah

Any of you care to elaborate on this Rise & Rise of Monero ?
By all means i am not stopping you LOL

Since it's SUPPOSE to be true you'd think you guys would not shut up about it right ?
ohhhhhhh Spoetnik's logic (FUD) is diabolical huh ?  Grin

It seems you googled it wrong. Lana should be 10 years old, since coin was made for her 10th birth day.   And dont forget you should not google her earlier then 7.5 years from now.

Your English skills are poor bud.

Read what i said again carefully..
Point being is i ALREADY had the Crypto Lana pictures saved on my HDD.
As well as many MANY more of you all.
I simply pull them out when the mood strikes me Wink

Look in warning and error category for notes.

Did you install drivers for audio ?
Did you install any software related audio stuff ?

What soundcard / chip is it ?

Google device manager and see if there are any flags.

I would make sure you have the correct drivers installed.
If they were from MS maybe try using some from the manufacturer.
You were also vague big time.. you didn't say what it is you were doing.
What was the audio coming from and what else might you have been doing when it happened ?

I get graphics fuck up's far more often than i do audio myself on Windows 7.
I use the LAV codec package for EVERY type of audio and video there is.
Then i installed Icaros for thumb nailing and disabled Windows Media Foundation 100% with Win7DSFilterTweaker.
That gives me far more codec support and far more advanced codec support than MS bullshit.
And it's configurable unlike MS crap too.

Then i also downloaded a package i found that is "Dolby Home Theater" which works on most Realtek Audio chipsets.. which gives me a variety of audio post processing stuff that is really cool.

SO.. i killed off all the MS crap for audio basically and used 3rd party stuff instead.. and it's awesome !

Problem is many of you are noobs and dumb so you couldn't say anything other than where'z mah ROI'z at bruh ?

I am the one who has been here since 2013 as you just said so... uhhhhh ?
Meaning ?
Well.. back then there was no such thing as an ICO.. or MLM scam coin etc.
I am here to remind you stupid shit head scammy loser profiteer noobs you are worthless garbage and should get the fuck out of my crypto scene.

Getting the hint yet ?

You bring nothing useful to crypto.
You are a cancer and we don't need your type.
Fuck off !
