Guys, the hotlinking is getting out of hand.  Please edit your posts to remove them.

Sounds very nice, but would require a special client used to meter the bandwidth and to sign/create these transactions, right?

It can just be built in to existing Android mobile clients. It's fair to ask that users have this, as that way it can be totally transparent ... users can end up on your wifi gateway without even realizing, if your fees are acceptable.


Automated payments are not currently possible.  This would likely require a second, independent wallet app made for the purpose.

That photo is funny, but what is the context?  Where did it come from before 4chan?

But you are free to stress over whatever hazards you feel are worthy.

No, I think you've explained it well enough to allay my fears. I just didn't want something putting out radioactive fumes... harmless or not, that's bad publicity. But since it would just end up as part of the wick ash, yeah, I think that's a great idea. I wonder how much more light that would put out?

Considering that a regular candle is only about 1% light efficient, it shouldn't be hard at all to triple or quadruple the lumens of such a candle.  Although this would be a relatively small improvement in overall efficiency, and still suck even compared to incandecents, the relative improvement in the cost effectiveness of a candle on a per lumen basis would be huge.  Particularly with respect to those who buy candles for regular domestic lighting.

I WATCHED SO MUCH ANIME IN 1999 OH MY GOD

That's excellent. I've got a great image of a fetus pressed up against the womb walls, trying to see the Anime.

If I keep laughing like that, I'm going to wake the kids!

You don't like 1999?

Honestly, that was a hard year for me.  I was making $7 per hour as an apprentice.  

I'm sorry to hear that. I was just getting into skateboarding, bringing my first software development group together and busy hacking the county library networks. I don't think I cared much about money at that time, but if Bitcoin would have existed then, you can bet I'd have been an early adopter.

On the flip side, if I had my avatar photo from 1999 too, I'd still have hair.  Well, some hair, anyway.  Most of it in places that wouldn't be in that photo.

Good Lord!  Your Dad should have sent you to bed, anime is not something that should be watched by toddlers.  It's such an impressionable age.  And it looks like it did.

I expected better when I opened this thread.

Thread didn't deliver. -1

Then it was kinda silly to subscribe to it, wasn't it?

I made a thread for Matthew but you deleted it because you hate gays!


That avatar photo of his is no more his actual photo than your avatar is a photo of yourself.

Did you mean this in spirit or as fact? This photo is actually a photo of me.  Cheesy

Really?  Was it taken in the past decade?  The white t-shirt thing and the deliberate pose does kinda scream "party like it's 1999".

You guys have no sense of humor.

That sounds like a fine idea. Give a whole new meaning to "candlepower"

I worry a little about the radioactivity of the thorium, though, the wick would burn, and that thorium would then be out in the air...

I seriously doubt that would be an issue, or Colman would already have one hell of a lawsuit. 

Does the gas mantle actually burn, like the wick, or does it just get hot and glow? If it actually burns, I retract my concerns.

A gas mantle is a little cloth baggie that has been soaked in a thorium-oxide solution and let dry.  The cloth is just a structure for the thorium-oxide, and once installed the cloth fibers are burned out from under the thorium-oxide leaving a brittle mineral mesh that resides in the direct path of the gas jet, which would look exactly like a small propane torch otherwise.  The loss of the cloth structure is also the reason that one can never remove the mantle and keep it intact.  Thorium is mildly radioactive, but it's much safer than just about anything else that is radioactive.  Your cell phone is more of a risk, even if you actually swallowed a mantle.  Thorium is in everything.  Every rock & body of water on earth has detectable trace amounts of it, which is why it's so ironic that it's classified as a 'rare earth' mineral.  If it can safely remain in a gas jet stream at 1500 degrees F., I'd wager that a thin steel wire coated in thorium-oxide would manage to do as well in a open flame while a wick burned away around it.  Thorium has one of the highest melting points on the table of elements, and thorium-oxide can't burn because it's already an oxide.

But you are free to stress over whatever hazards you feel are worthy.

Nice car, can I see the rest of it?

Um, who is OP? Is that the GTFO guy?

It stands for Original Poster, meaning you preteen.

I deleted nothing, but perhaps one of our 'alternative lifestyle' mods deleted it because you offend them for the implication that their standards would include Matt?  That avatar photo of his is no more his actual photo than your avatar is a photo of yourself.

Also, FYI, I believe the correct term is "chandler". I thought you were looking for candy makers. Wink

Okay, but how many people would know what a chandler was either?

This is called the Bitcoin forum for a reason.
Wow, so Bitcoin is known for bigotry? 0_0;

>_<....

Like JackRabbit said, troll harder.  You're not even on the hot list yet.  We've got a hundred members of this list that are an order of magnitude more offensive than this, and not only are they not really trying, they're still members.  Half of them are Hero Members in good standing.  I'm more amused than anything.

And I noticed that you are complaining in advance, since your offending post has not been removed!

Obviously not, since you are still talking; but nor are you off to a promising start.  You're going to have to improve your signal to noise ratio if you desire to continue to call us names.

I can buy some premium coca cola for you across the boarder  Cheesy

I can get a four dollar Coke Classic in a 16 ounce glass bottle, made with real sugar, from the Mexican grocery store five blocks from my house.  The real question then becomes, can you get them to me cheaper?
