I've never seen an ass candle before, but I imagine it would, indeed, be quite weird. |

I was an SSD fan ...
You can thank me later  ? ? ? What was your involvement? NVRAM or controller development? Civil or military? I realize SSDs date back to the late 1980s. I'm fascinated by the early history. I always saw storage as the main performance bottleneck in any computer system. I figured when cheap low-power-consumption high-capacity dependable solid state storage was achieved, we'd see a whole new world of portable devices. It's not surprising that the first netbooks and then smartphones and tablets followed closely behind the development of MLC and TLC flash and controllers with improved wear leveling and garbage collection algorithms. Sure, improved battery and radio technologies helped but the mobile revolution was spurred by SSDs. Inb4 jbreher fully dox himself: He is a fucking good mass storage engineer/developer. Would love he tells us more details if he feels like. He may have a wrong view of what is the true Bitcoin but the guy really knows his shit and has more high stakes pro level technical background that most of us here. Respect. To a man with a hammer, everything looks like a nail I am retarded... what does that mean in this case? Of course he believes in big blocks. He is a mass storage engineer. To him, more storage is easy and the answer to all (most) problems. So we can safely ignore anything he has to say about big block forks as his opinion is massively biased by his profession. Which is fair enough. |

And just like that, his hard-on for big-blocks becomes entirely clear! Man's gotta make a livin'... |

Does anyone else
count syllables on fingers?
So it's just me then.
still figuring what syllables are.... thats why it ain't working for me good BTC is more easy to understand  FYI Does an-y-one else count syl-la-bles on fin-gers? So it's just me then. I be-lieve you may be on-to some-thing. Per-haps we should write with hy-phens for the day so that mic-goo-ssens can try to be-come more a-ware of how sy-lla-bles work in the en-glish lang-uage. Eng-lish can be ve-ry nu-anced, ne-ver mind ac-cents and re-gio-nal di-a-lects. the mockerying in that wall observer thread micg will learn it all 'micg' is 2 syllables to me! |

So it's particularly native thing. I guess it's a similarity Japanese and English. Hiragana being words split into syllables - as close as Japanese gets to an alphabet. |

@jbreher, are you talking BTC or the bit'alts ? to hit that 100K ?
My hope is that it would be SV. As time goes by, hope diminishes. I will continue to think big blocks is the proper scaling solution regardless of the outcome. If SV or ABC hit anything approaching 100k, I win extra-bigly. If BTC approaches 100K, I win something less bigly. Either way, future's so bright, I gotta wear shades. At some point you have to recognize that a less superior tech, in your opinion, has won, or that it's victory is inevitable. We may not have reached that time yet for you. However, at some point you have to retire the Betamax player and recognize that VHS won. Segwit is a far superior tech. Increasing the block size is the least sophisticated way of solving the problem. The thing is, as has been mentioned many times, Bitcoin will increase the block size when it becomes necessary, and not a moment before. Which means that Bitcoin will do everything the pretenders can do, plus more. |

You're a kind man, P_Shep. A kind and generous man.
Yeah, it's a fault of mine. |

Private key==bitcoin.
I... am confused as to why anyone here would be confused about this?
It’s still there  Somebody is definitely going to steal it. It's a BIP38 password encrypted paper wallet. Impossible to sweep without knowing the password... +1, Your funds are safe as long as you remember the passphrase. IMO, keeping a BIP38 password makes your paper wallet less secure. There's a good chance that you'll forget that phrase by the time you need to extract bitcoin out of your paper wallet.  Compare the probability of getting your piece of paper stolen and the probability of forgetting the password; there are more chances that you'll forget your password! I don't know, if not even the owner of the coins can move them, they must be SAFE. |

Not quite all of them though, I have a little over 5 BTC still provided and taken. |

Shameless example of abject irony snipped
And all written with a straight face? Amazing! |
