MTF, with judges like him we will not see human evolution happen this century either...

i just contacted the team from their website, hope they consider it at least Subject: The American Dream Film Support The American Dream Film Support Name: paraipanakos Phone: Phone Email: xxxxxxxxxxxxx@gmail.comComments: hi, love your cartoon, just wanted to ask, do you accept bitcoin donations ? saw your video on youtube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPWH5TlbloU and few more people seem to ask the same thing as me. Thanks

great idea, hope we see it for real some day i've posted an p2pMarket idea too, it came to us from the spanish forums

haha yeah, this guy seems to have reinvented the IC engine making it more efficient though

@DeathAndTaxes spot on man, how much bitcoins for that gold pressed latinum bar you're holding ? edit; well written article over bitcoin in a post scarcity world, i think we're starting to see glimpse of the future here ppl

oops i managed to derail the topic... sorry ppl, i was too tempted @DeathAndTaxes, maybe you're right or wrong, the correct answer lies within your words. I give can give you some hints if you like... energy is lost or stored just like you say, efficiently or not based on the existent friction in a device, but for that to happen you have to get it from somewhere first. A good example is a squeaky swing loosing the energy through heat at it's hinges. What do you do ? "Instinctively" you put some grease at it and increase efficiency. After that you have to push little less and have it go higher and get rid of the annoying squeaking too. Friction is a natural effect of collisions between particles that have mass, and not only. I would love to talk more on the subject but not in this thread though. Feel free to open another one and i will chime in Back on topic: Apart from us giving value to bitcoin by trading it, is true that "non-replication" could be it's base intrinsic value ?

At present, from col. Bearden's words, we make our energy from turning with our bare hands a windmill that we closed up in a barn. We put energy into our generators to create it on the wires and then put some more to destroy it, opposing the nature in the process so we have to put up more to destroy than produce, thus COP<1. You look at a swing in the park standing still, with no energy in it, in symmetry with it's medium. Now give it a hard push, it goes up a little and then start going back, but wait, the damn thing doesn't stop to where it started, wtf, noo it goes the other way little less than when we pushed it at first. Goes past original point again and again... until it stops.Hmmm, yes our physicists called that "inertia". Can't find a reasonable explanation of what t is in any book i can get my hand on. So what it is ? Why the swing can't stop plain dead from where it started and continues to swing ? What if... i give it a small push every time it gets past me and see what we have. I use a small amount of my energy and push the damn thing when it asks for it (resonance) for fun. HOLY SHH... ! I can even push a grownup person that stands on the swing with my little finger. Yeah, it rocks. My brain is used to this "swing" thing, from a life of experience, and calculates the frequencies by itself with the help of some feedback, my eyes. But what if we manage to get all that cumulated energy in the "swing" (tank circuit) and use it to make some more swings or heat our homes ? Meh, it doesn't work, we break the resonance if we get greedy and tap it all at once. We will have to get the surplus and increase the efficiency of the thing. In a few words, we disturb the medium with a little "push" and the nature makes and effort to reach equilibrium again but in the process "spills" lots more of it's energy. The "swing" is present all around us, you only have to pay attention. Even the internal combustion engine is a "free energy" device only it uses the wrong pushing energy. Yes you don't have to go to far to find those devices, we have them all around us, perverted in some way, or crippled, to act "normal" Sorry for the long, off-topic post, promise to make them better in the future

Thus easily accessible, stored energy becomes your money.
Assuming people arn't carting about battery sized canisters of megajoule capacity we could use Bitcoin to represent a specified amount of joules. So, 1BTC = 10^24 Joules or 1YJ? Yes likely some form of digital currency would exist. With nanotechnology most forms of physical currency could be instantly counterfitted. With energy->matter conversion no form of physical currency would be viable. Not sure if a Bitcoin type system would be viable. The currency would be directly linked to a physical commodity which most likely would require banks/brokers to issue/destroy currency based on stored energy. That would be difficult/impossible to accomplish in a no trusted third party environment. indeed, this is the second post that agrees somehow that bitcoin could fit in such a future, and i'm happy with it. I will make sure i leave some bitcoins in the "cd-testament" to my family and every person i met, and remember, just in case it really gets adopted in more than 100 years

ack HolodeckJizzmopper & martychubbs and thanks for joining in c00w will merge the changes when he gets online I see Martychubbs submitted the same fix in his changelist, fwiw. Sorry Marty ! Didn't see that when I submitted ! Honest ! no biggie, git is smart with the merges

Done and bump in the thread so more people can see it.
thanks

@Explodicle i appreciate the effort you put into explaining your points and, yes, i got your "land" example from the start, i was trying to make it resemble a "coin" type of money with the properties they must have (Portability, Divisibility, Durability, Sufficiently rare, Fungible, Un-consumable). Not even one entity will be able to have a monopoly on any resource, anything could be "replicated" even land. With the right tools on spaceships you could build entire planets out of nothing. All contemporary researchers agree on this point with E = m * C2 (matter is compressed energy). I know the "free energy" concept is hard to grasp, it cost me few years of my life, but it's real and possible. We're floating in it, planets are suspended in it, scientists are actively looking for this elementary particle that makes the field we all live in, ring a bell ? And one final point, before rewarding you the "Second ad-hoc prize" (0.10 btc), would be that in some distant future machines will do the hard physical work spending the energy (energy * work) in a determined amount of time. So if you'd have unlimited free energy and machines made to last you will be able to make "money" without limits. Of course that is relative too, the machines would require people design them, do maintenance, program them and operators that will have to make all the thinking (energy * intellect) for them. We people spend energy to think, allot sometimes. Machines or their parts will be "replicated" off course (pls pm me with your btc address Explodicle)

Hey, care to vote on "Do you accept bitcoin donations" on youtube ?

the small bitcoin prize is won by "sadpandatech", I surely hope this issue gets some attention in the next years before some individual or organization manages to exploit human race with their technology ................. On topic, I will be more than happy to relinquish said 1 Bitcoin or to atleast share it with anyone else that would endeavour to further ponder a distant future with Bitcoin and share it here. ................. very kind of you, i'm sure a few more "deep thinkers" lurk around these forums too btw, "Water World" was one of the movies a really liked, you don't get to see movies like that in present days though I really think we will always have some kind of "coin" to exchange between us and use it as measurement for something we agree upon, basically because our lives are finite and all our thinking goes around that...
