By the way? What's on the back of a bitcoin?




How to tell the exact time of the $35k breach? Down to seconds, at least. Minutes wouldn't be a problem.

Who's first? Me or the ladies?  

EDIT: $34k flatten some curves... C'mon bitcoin, you can do it!

Predict the word count of JJG's 22.000th post?
Closest match wins. Quoted content does not count.
IF JJG IS OK WITH THAT, because he would of course have to be excluded from the contestants.

EDIT: A "word" must be well defined, like if every syllable, if not a "real word" counts too, and so on.

Last spam pic for today. I decided on this one to show how much color can be incorporated, the filter i used here was Tiffen Red #25, which cuts off everything below 695nm wavelength, iirc. Maybe 680-ish, thus letting some visible light pass along with the infrared.

One might ask: Why isn't there any Red in the photo?
It's because the red and blue color channels are inverted to better match the remaining colors to real life conditions. In the original pic from the cam, the sky is red, the foliage is light-green. The higher the wavelength, the more flat the colors appear, from that chrome look at 720nm and 750nm (the most popular ones), to that soft B&W near the borders of sensor spectrum capturing ability. There's also infrared 35mm film, which is B&W only.

EDIT: I wish i could shoot things like this from a drone. I'd need a drone that is capable of easily carrying about two pounds of payload and i would have to pre-adjust focus and other camera settings, shooting images blindly, like trial&error. Maybe i'll pick that up in the future, idk. This would set me back some more $k and make it even more time intensive, but it would also be unique (and so would it make me worry a bit more about OpSec again, i think).

EDIT2: Posting this pic here, along with my thoughts about drone photography, made me think more about it. If i note the positioning of the drone, while checking out views using the onboard cam, i could match zoom/focal length and vertical angle to the IR cam when on the ground again, which would save me from too many unwanted results of the blind shootings. Just send the drone back to the snapshot position and trigger the IR cam. This would work in my favor. Damn, i think i have to reconsider this project. Images may be well worth the resources i'd have to use.

I should also stay with my choice of weed strain for the next weeks but maybe vape a little less of it  

Word  
So your plan was to sell at $30k and you already have that OLED TV included?
What does your gut feeling tell you? In my case, it was right most of the time. When i decided to wait... my trades went bad most times.
But that's only my experience. I'm born to hodl, as it seems  


True, but at the very bottom of this cycle.   
I like JJG's approach: Take your profit when going up, if you need to and stick to your plan, only make little adjustments at a time.
Would fit here, don't you think?

Knowing that background now, and the additional details, i'd say: Stick to your plan.
Leave some of your stash on your cold storage and offer me a discount if i want to take a break at your future apartment  

EDIT: And in respect to serveria's reply: If you had that plan, why do you even question it? Afraid to lose again? I'd say you can live off the Airbnb and let the rest of the Stash grow in value. Not the worst decision, in my eyes.

That's the wrong approach, imo.
Do you need and want the appartment?
If yes, sell BTC. If no, buy BTC.
You can sell half a coin now, decide about the rest later next week. This way you are half secure.

BUT

Covid's impact on economy might lower apartment prices in 2021, so if you can wait, why not invest and wait?

So if you need and want that apartment, buy it.
If in doubt, forget it, buy some BTC and don't look back. That's how i would do it.

EDIT: Remember, i don't buy BTC to make fiat. That might differ from your goals.

Here's even more:

That's not even the newest idea... 

Elwar, it's less a problem of getting more ICUs, it's getting qualified staff. Intensive care is not nursing.
It's the same in my country, theoretically thousands of ICU's possible to set up, but only staff for a little more than one thousand. Additionally, you can't teach this in a course, it's a qualification that needs at least two years to be mastered, more like three to four years.
Feel free to go and ask a doctor who is working in the intensive care field about things you hear or see on the internet about covid and what the "truthseekers" claim is "really" happening. It would be best if this person is somebody you personally know and also trust. I know more than one, and i know what's going on in our hospitals. Don't fall for the conspiridiots.

Find some peace in these stressful pandemic times in beautiful nature....



Every digital consumer camera has an infrared filter in front of the sensor, to cut off some blurriness, which would be removed easily by sharpening algorithms and also not only be visible to the human eye through long exposure imaging. So in astronomic photography many galxies would be invisible on photographs, that's why astrocams don't have any filter built in, as do night vision devices. Now, if you take a digital camera, take out the infrared filter and replace it with clear glass (to keep the focal path intact), you have a DIY astrocam. Now put a filter that cuts off all light but below certain wavelengths (715nm - dark red), the sensor is capable to catch only infrared light. At about 900nm no more color is there to be recorded, only lightness information. The data from the image has to be processed to deliver good results with much contrast and vivid colors, due to the nature that only a narrow spectrum of light freqencies is captured through the filter.
Older cameras have weaker IR filters, some even had removable ones (like the Sigma SD), so you just needed the screw-on IR-pass filter and longer exposure without a useable view through the viewfinder (very blackish red). The Nikon D70 was especially popular back then.

The outcome also relies on the specific strain of CoV2. Most lucky fuckers are infected by less severe variants, so they say "it's not that bad, i had it too...".
Empathy is still underdeveloped in us humans, but as long as there are mysteries around CoV and Covid, people will construct their own "truth" based on experience and knowledge, also personality. We know especially about knowledge, that it doesn't spread as fast as a corona virus.
I'm still not tired to point out that most social and economic problems on this planet are results of poor education.
Take bitcoin as an example...
Sorry for your losses.

Thanks.
I had to realize that i put everything on the NAS before migrating my windows installation after getting a new laptop.
I've got no recent pics locally, because IR photography is a summer thing, when there's a lot of (reflective) foliage, grass and IR radiation from the sun.
Will post some more colorful IR shots later on, as well as pics of human skin, which looks like the skin of elves in IR.

I can't even look at the original post without Borat's voice reading it for me in my mind 

bitoin is dead now!
haven't you seen today's charts?
i go to bed now

#haiku

LMAO  

My last spam pic(s) (for today at least), but if some of you are into photography and can probably afford an infrared converted digital camera, you will discover some kind of new beauty.





Good night, hodl tight  

The 20D is still a good cam, i had one too, it had pretty mild infrared-cut filters in front of the sensor, for nice long exposure within 1-4 secs for color-IR images.
Couldn't get under 20secs with the later D40 and 720nm filter, a nightmare. I bought a used Nikon D70 for compensating this caveat.
I have one mirrorless (two-thirds) body, an EOS-M converted for color-infrared photography. I can adapt all my EF/EF-s lenses to it and it allows to shoot much faster shutter times, sometimes too fast for that mellow IR look.
However, from my experience with this body, i can only urge to buy a mirrorless body which is BIG enough, like a standard DSLR. The EOS-M and most mirrorless bodies are too small to be held comfortably for longer times, especially with the heavier types of lenses mounted.

EDIT: The EOS-M is an APS-C, not MFT, sorry.

Congrats. I had this gut feeling, too. I switched 10% of my btc holdings into two top5 marketcap shitcoins. When i woke up i checked the prices and saw them up roughly at 30% and 26%, wanted to sell but got caught in family business, managed to reverse the trades two hours later, still resulting in 11% gains.


Never been there (yet). Fillippone may well know the mountains in the background 

My dad was heavily into photography. Landscape, supercars and these soft filtered 70's portraits. I grew into it, automatically.
Got my first Canon AE-1 from him at the age of 12, i also have two inherited lenses here, which i use occasionally. A Tamron push-pull zoom and a fixed focal length 24mm f2 lens. Both can't keep up with modern sensor resolutions too well, though.
Stepping into digital photography at 2 megapixels from 35mm film was awesome.
At the time you can shoot landscapes like this a lot:
